    Half the enjoyment of watching Mr Pete's videos is seeing the wonderful tools and suchlike that he has.
    Keep up the good work and stay safe.

    Mr. Pete, you never need to apologize for any rambling. A big part of why I enjoy your videos is the fact that you do ramble at times, it's just a part of your charm. I have a Bridgeport and a KBC 12x24 lathe. Until I found you, This Old Tony and Joe Pi I was self taught, which means my teacher didn't know anything about the subject he was teaching. So, thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world via TH-cam. Without you I'd still be learning from an unqualified teacher.

    I am 87 years old and retired from working in a production and CNC machine shop for over 20 years. This Nov. I will have been retired for 30 years and for the last several years I have seen most of your videos some several times, I never get tired of seeing them. Thanks keep them coming Hillory Stanton Macon Ga.

    New subscriber. I bought an Atlas 10” Lathe about a year ago and wanted to learn more about it. I have to say I wish you had been my shop teacher many years ago. I have learned by doing forever, but your approach gives my the whys and wherefores that I have had to pick up via doing things wrong all along the way. In short, you are a true national treasure and my hat is off to you as both an educator and a just plain human that cares deeply about your trade(s). An extreme THANK YOU is all I can do... Please continue!!!!

That Rigid 33B triple tap bolt threader is sweet, I looked it up and it appears it is no longer made, but used ones can be found. You always have awesome unique tools. I have spent considerably time researching some of the tools you use. Truly entertainment and educational.

    Mitee - my favorite cutting fluid. The smell when it cooks off in a heavy cut brings back memories of visiting the family business (cold heading plant) when I was a toddler and child. Those cold heading machines would take a piece of 1/2" rod and mash a bolt head on it, several cycles per second. That smoked the oil instantly. Sometimes you could hardly see the other side of the shop. (All that smoke is gone these days; probably a good thing, too.)

    Hello, Mr. Pete. Awesome video and a great project, what a nice final product! I absolutely love the dialog.lol I genuinely get a good laugh at your side bar comments😀. I feel compelled to tell you how invaluable it is that you share your talent and craft . The way you bring us into your own basement shop and have fellowship with us in the most light hearted, yet constructive way is quite uplifting for me. My job is one that has been affected by this virus nonsense and seeing your videos truly gives me a spark of joy and so I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you. Wow, talk about being long-winded.lol Have an awesome day, Mr. Pete. Until next time...

    As far as falling asleep goes...now that I'm retired it has become a non issue for me. If I can't get to sleep I read until I can, if I end up staying awake all night it makes taking a nap even better. I learned a trick when I was an optician in the B.W.I.: I would get down and put my cheek on the floor and using a flashlight on the floor just sweep back and forth until I saw the eyeglass screw, which were pretty small. Great video Lyle, thumbs up.

    • @mrpete222
      @mrpete222  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree with you to some extent. But if I do not get enough sleep I lack the energy and drive the next day. And I love a nap, but it can ruin the next nights sleep. That’s a good idea about getting down on your knees to look for parts, but then I would not be able to get up

    I did watch until the end and thank you for the time and effort in making the video. When I occasionally clean up my work shed I come across a small piece or part hiding underneath the workbench that decided to make a run for it years ago, of course it is by now useless and gets added to the 'spares' box .

    I finally installed aprons around my workbenches because it seemed that everything I dropped would hit the tip of my shoe and bounce under the bench. Or magically vanish without a sound never to be seen again. My shop teacher Mr. White way back in 76 had these little "kits he called them" made up of a tapper tap, bottoming tap, drill bits, and counterbore for one sized hole all in the same little wooden boxes. I still to this day keep kits like that for various jobs like tapping holes, cutting E-clip grooves, extra length drills and taps for set screws, etc.

    I rather like the vise you were using on the vertical band saw. Gotta find or make one of those. I don't know why I never thought to do that.

    Lovely!
    I wanted to make some myself (for my tiny 20mm tall mill vise.
    I do like the looks of the flat round ones - I'll put it on my to do list (ok, it's been there for a couple of years - I'll just get it done).
    Awesome inspiration and a lovely design. A foundry sounds like a great thing to have around - but not in a balcony, as in my case... :)
    Thanks for sharing. Love your wonderful projects.

    Mr Pete, have you ever tried wrapping a piece of paper around the tap then chucking it? I had an old German machinist show me that trick and it works well. It's no longer harden steel on harden steel. Thanks for the edutainment.

    Great little project, Mr. Pete! I must have a dozen spring ring pliers, most are Chinese junk on which the jaw ( pins that fit into the spring ring holes) retainer screws immediately strip the plier jaw holes, making them worthless. I gave up on interchangeable jaw models but the single-jaw configuration ones are expensive, and I never seem to have the size/ style I need.!
