Many don't understand that it's not about saving money when doing a project. For most makers and hobby machinist's, the journey is the destination. Keep up the great content.
I couldn't have said it better! This was a great video. Oh, does losing your 10 millimeter socket and the time spent searching it also count as a side project?
You are saving money! For a business, projects are income - so buying tools probably worthwhile, you can get more projects done quicker and make more money. For a hobbyist, projects are *expenses*. So by spending time on this project, you're slowing down the rate of projects and spending less money.
This is entirely why I wanna retire and try to learn machining. I'd love to spend time making tools to then make more complex projects. I see it like forms and stances in dance or martial arts. Squaring sides, true parallel, and high precision fits are things that influence the rest of what you learn, even if it's "just a collet block"
Rewatching this in 2024 was jarring. It's impressive how far you've come in 50 videos and a little over a year, especially with the narration. The awkwardness is totally gone, good job.
Love everything about what you're doing. Love the production quality. Love the concept. Love the story. Love the editing. Love the clarity and brevity. Content that's almost meditative to watch. My sincere gratitude and encouragement for your efforts.
It is amazing how much you know about all the parts on a lathe and the mechanics on a 5C collet. I am a self taught machinist of 20 years and truly admire people who immerse themselves like you.
@@InheritanceMachining Yeah, I for one would love to keep seeing more of it. And maybe someday I'll take a class. My mom did when I was a kid, and she had a table, and used it for doing landscape design work... I was young enough that I mostly just thought it was fun to play with the moving pieces. :) It'd be fun to get properly into it someday, though.
One of the best channels on TH-cam I've been gunsmithing since the early '80s I just think you should pay homage to your grandfather in every video for without him this wouldn't be possible
Thanks! You are absolutely right! But I know he would have hated that, or anything sappy. I will probably have more stories to share about him when they seem relevant.
Tool making is probably one of the coolest things you can do in any workshop. The ability to take tools to make more advanced tools or pieces of kit so you can make more complex things is incredibly satisfying.
Really like you handdraw instead of using computers... Technical handdrawing is art for a old-school machinist. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share it...
Watching you turn your pencil markings into a physical object is something I love watching you do. I wish your grandpa could see these projects and what you are using these beautiful behemoths to make.
Have you made a video series before? The edits, the script, the shots, all on point. I worked in a machine shop in high school and a bit of college, and you’re work is lighting my brain up. Stoked to watch more.
For blind internal threading, get or make a boring bar that cuts on the back of the part and run the lathe in reverse. You can up the speed as much as you want because you start at the internal shoulder (Against a carriage stop if you want to just slam in and get it done) and the thread pulls out into open air so stopping point is zero stress.
As I am binge watching these old videos I can see that he did took your suggestion. I saw so many places where he is running the lathe in reverse with boring bar mounted backwards.
Great to see someone not only enjoy their shed time but also be proud enough to share and then spend enough time and thought to make the sharing a professional production - cheers mate.
What an amazing channel you have here. I wish you all the best and I'm sure your grandfather is beyond himself with pride in the care you take to honor your shared passion. It's really a beautiful thing.
Just wanted to say, I burned out in engineering school and did only a little CNC and the clean side of a specialty shop (I only turned threads once), but this reminds me of the folk who passed on from the shop and the days of being young and wondering why Laplace and the j-axis hated me so much. Thanks. Your work, and your presentation, are top notch.
This is so enjoyable, so unique. I love seeing you two (three) living your best life. And I like to think Grandpa would love this as well. Thank you for honoring him.
By far, my most valued series. Every instalment is mesmerising. Thanks for putting in all the work from editing & scripting to actually doing the work.
What a great video to have breakfast with! This video really captures all the different little tangents that a machinist (or anyone) gets into when doing a project. And for a high school student like myself, it was just so good to watch.
I was happy to see the wood block covering the lathe ways when you changed the chuck. I don't remember seeing that in your lathe cleaning video. I would also like to say I enjoy your video style.
You should make the plans for the collet blocks available for hobby guys like us to print out and use, they look very well drawn out and professional! It’s been fun watching you restore all your grandfathers old machines and tools.
Machining and woodworking are very similar in many ways; both can involve significant machines, and both machinists and woodworkers build parts and jigs for their shop as a self-learning tool as much as they do it to be proud of something they’ve made. I am a woodworker, and I’ve always wanted to dive into machining. Your channel helps me do that, but without all the expense! I just have to watch what you do, and I feel like I’m right there doing it! So thank you for doing what you do, so well!
Well we will be sure to keep them coming! I've done a fair amount of wood work on the house we are renovating. Custom cabinets, drawers, doors, trim, and of course general framing. As such we've acquired a ton of tools in that space as well. But by no means would I call myself a woodworker. I can definitely appreciate the skill involved there. It's simultaneously like working with metal and completely different at the same time.
I would love to make a set of these. I just love the whole layout of your content. The machine work, the editing, the voiceover, all of it. I really like your shop setup and how well organized you are. Hope you’re doing awesome 🍻
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels since I've found it. I've been watching every video from the 1st on the channel and have really enjoyed it.
Tip for the future: The angle marks on the compound aren't the most accurate. So you can indicate your angle useing a known angle. In your case just put in the 5C collet adapter in the lathe and indicate off that and you'll have a perfect copy.
Great video, as always! For the internal threads I like to flip my tool upside down and go on reverse feeding away from the chuck. That way you can position the start of the thread easily and then you can run as fast as you want :D
Thanks, Piotr! Are you sure you're not using a reversed tool? Flipping a tool like mine would still require feeding into the part. Trust me! I was trying everything I could to avoid feeding in! lol
@@PiotrSarnacki I'm talking about internal threading too. With a tool like the one I used (only one I have) if I flip it, I'll have to cut on the "far" side of the bore, but still need to run the lathe forward and still have to feed into the bore. If i start inside and feed out I would cut a left hand thread. Hopefully that makes sense
@@InheritanceMachining omg, sorry, you’re totally right! I haven’t done it in a while and now when I realized this I recall I used a HSS tool I ground, must have been a left hand tool
@@PiotrSarnacki All good! Took me a while to wrap my head around it so if there was a chance my tool would work I was hoping someone could convince me of it haha.
I haven't seen anyone but myself put pen to paper in decades! Unfortunately my highschool drafting and architecture classes were back in the 1970's. 😂 Nice projects to warm up on! Its hard to believe your grandfather didn't have many amongst his tooling trove. The details _do_ matter. It's like anything else, the knowledge and passion you put into something pays dividends every time you pick it up.
1970's or 2000's, the drafting technology was the same! You are absolutely right. Above all else, my goal of this endeavor is to create something I am proud of.
Nice work, and really like what you're doing. Definite bonus points for using the drafting table! Great job cleaning and caring for those machines. You grandfather would be very pleased.
Therapeutic is a perfect description when doing a drawing or sketch. Possibly an engineer (CE for me)thing or maybe more so for dimensional reference and records. I sure wish all of mine were on 8-1/2” x 11”. Thanks for the videos.
Hey I’m in on the ground floor of a great channel. I love your style of filming. I like the narration and the projects. I’ll be watching, great job new guy.
Woo Hoo, first of many projects! Your doing great on you content. So thank you for all your effort in putting together a top notch Video, keep it up! Cheers, John
Great video, May I just make a recommendation? If you're cutting round stock on the bandsaw in a vise like that, flip the whole thing over and make the cut with the piece resting directly against the table. Obviously the cut for you went well, but if that caught it would've at least broken the saw blade.
Super cool to be able to make your own tools for making tools like this. Great work, even if you did need to go back and repair it later. Thanks for a wonderful video of it, too.
Very beautiful job. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work. Keep Making. God Bless.
The problem I've found with the collet blocks is in the locking lever handle that come with a set you purchase. It clamps the part fine however when you release it it doesn't always let the part like a round bar come out without knocking it forward. Maybe you can design a spring loaded locking handle that will push the collet out of the block when released. I have been unable to find anything like that anywhere. Great video.
A razor blade used as a scraper is a great way to remove the surface rust from machined surfaces like a bandsaw table. It doesn’t remove the original surface and just planes the rust off. It doesn’t clog up like sandpaper or put grit everywhere. Just a quick buff with some oily scotchbright and you’re done.
You did well on side projects. In software development we have a saying "yak shaving" when you start one job, which leads to a side project, which leads to another, which leads to another, and so on. You didn't shave any yaks here. A job well done!
Don't you just love a good side project! And making tools to make more stuff. Nice video, thanks for sharing. Although it's just like my life in my shed.
My wife asks me all the time why I make odds and ends out in the shop. Because I can…. I find when I have an idea, drives me crazy until I take my idea and drawing and make the part. Nice job on the collet holders. Came out awesome.
Hey there. Using the compound at an angle to assist in thread cutting is all about cutting on one side of the tool like you said, but it's preferable that this 'one side' is the tool side that is towards the direction of the carriage. If you are pulling the tool south-east (looking from the top) between each pass like you did you are cutting with the right-hand side edge of the tool. If you are pulling towards a south-west direction then, indeed, you are cutting with the tool edge that is approaching the work with many benefits.
I really love your videos. Your narration is informative and a bit whimsical. I especially liked your reference to the gorilla in the room; the side project. Almost no project that I have embarked on has not resulted in multiple side projects, but they are equally fun and since I am not working on a deadline (just a hobbyist) they help to keep me busy.
You are absolutely right. There is no avoiding them! Though they are especially abundant in my circumstance. So I exploit them for content :D Thanks for the support!
Great videos. One thing you may want to consider is to leave the final small cut on the diameter until last. The reason being that the heavier drilling operations can move the part. Finish off the bore then skim the o/d.
Fun video! As an engineer and machinist myself, I found it very enjoyable. Especially the side projects. It seems as though every project always has a side quest. Or many of them. Have you considered single point threading in reverse (from the chuck to the end of the part)? I learned this tip from BlondieHacks, who said she learned it from Joe Pie. It greatly reduces the drama since you position the carriage toward the work by hand, then engage the power feed to drive the carriage back out. The only thing is, you have to mount your cutter upside down, as you did to machine the dog points on your retaining screws.
Much appreciated Jason! Yes I definitely would have preferred to thread in reverse. This was the only internal threading holder I have. You’ve got me thinking though. I think I would need the reverse style holder rather than just flipping the tool. I’ll have to check out their videos to see if I follow you correctly
@@InheritanceMachining As I recall, they used a boring bar with v-cutter rotated 180 degrees. Unfortunately, I haven't tried the technique myself, as my South Bend Model 10 restoration is on hold for an extended business trip.
@@InheritanceMachining I always did most of my indexing in a spin fixture. I have 2 high quality ones and can get any angle I need very easy with them. Also, have the option for complete round work and angle work in the same fixture.
Nicely done. I have an almost full set of round 215 collets (similar style to 5C but oversized - holds up to 1 3/4"), plus a few odd ball square and hex. On my to do list is to make collet blocks for them.
Great video I enjoy your style and commentary. Sometimes the side jobs at the best part of the big job. It makes you slow down and rethink before you go too fast and make a mistake. Can’t wait till the next video.
I love this channel so far. I see that you aren't wearing a ring or watch like Adam Savage when working on the lathe👍. Good machine shop safety compared to other TH-camrs that use a lathe.
Maybe I was just being stealthy but I definitely forgot to take my ring off! I have better habits on the woodworking tools since those have bit me before. More than once. Appreciate the reminder though!
@@InheritanceMachining Oh, I must have missed the ring. Wearing a long sleeve shirt bothers me less. It might be good to take off a watch, rings, and long sleeve clothing at the drafting desk. I totally understand if it is cold in the shop. When I worked in a machine shop that got cold. Some of my coworkers wore insulated vests that were tighter fits. I would suggest some like the Carhartt insulated overalls/vests. It does not have to be Carhartt, but some made from duck canvas.
Enjoyed the latest episode. I was taught drafting in high school and college. I still design stuff in my head in three view format. For filming your videos there are shadows at some angles especially at the lathe . Perhaps an LED light on a tripod will do the trick.AL B.
you have a new subscriber from the uk. really like the content, and i still miss my lathe & mill. hopefully work will be starting on my new workshop soon but you know how life can get in the way
G'day mate, top job. Great to see the usage of these great machines. Your in a great position to get all this gear and be able to use it. Many would have just got rid of it. Looking forward to more videos mate . Ta Steve
I must admit that your channel creeps me out a bit. It's like watching myself. Our life paths are almost identical! Same workshop problems, equipment, skills, etc. Only difference thus far is I purchased my "inherited" shop from a long time friend and I worked as a CNC machinist, but did go to school for engineering. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and appreciate that you take time to "video" document your progress. Looking forward to seeing what the future holds for "us". lol
Very cool! I'm learning a lot of people have a similar passion as me for keeping these manual machines, and the skill to use them, alive. And I'm glad for it! Thanks for following along!
Hi buddy, I just subscribed to your channel. Very good stuff here and very good quality video with a calm relaxed mature feel. Congrats on inhereting your grandfather's awesome machines. What a blessing. By the way your Trinco blasting cabinet was made right around the corner from my house in Fraser, MIchigan. Needless to say I have one just like yours. Although, I bought mine lightly used at a good price and not at Trinco, lol. Anyhoo, great channell so far. Good luck with everything you do with it.
That's pretty cool! Other than the big machines, the blast cabinet was one of the things I was most excited for. I use it all the time. Thanks for the support!
Considering how much rust you have to remove from the different tools it might pay you to get a rust removal pan, and some de-rusting solution. Soak the parts overnight, and maybe run them against a wire brush wheel in the morning.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who “collects side projects” as we progress and learn the finer points of having a “shop” 😃
That's the one constant for sure!
It's nice to see an engineer that understands machining. Big props to you my dude.
Thanks, man!

After watching this video I start thinking to get the small drafter back to my office again.
While it's not super efficient, its very relaxing. I'd recommend it if you like that sort of thing

Hey there. Using the compound at an angle to assist in thread cutting is all about cutting on one side of the tool like you said, but it's preferable that this 'one side' is the tool side that is towards the direction of the carriage. If you are pulling the tool south-east (looking from the top) between each pass like you did you are cutting with the right-hand side edge of the tool. If you are pulling towards a south-west direction then, indeed, you are cutting with the tool edge that is approaching the work with many benefits.
You’re right! I never though about that but that definitely makes sense. Thanks for the info!
I really liked old school drafting in the 90s. I had really tidy arrows.
man im exhausted just watching.. excellent work
Me too haha thanks!
New favorite TH-cam channel.
Wow! Thanks!
I really love your videos. Your narration is informative and a bit whimsical. I especially liked your reference to the gorilla in the room; the side project. Almost no project that I have embarked on has not resulted in multiple side projects, but they are equally fun and since I am not working on a deadline (just a hobbyist) they help to keep me busy.
You are absolutely right. There is no avoiding them! Though they are especially abundant in my circumstance. So I exploit them for content :D Thanks for the support!
A thoroughly enjoyable video, and my new favourite channel. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
😁 Thanks and welcome!
I love your content. I love working in silence and your method is great!
Thanks!
Great videos. One thing you may want to consider is to leave the final small cut on the diameter until last. The reason being that the heavier drilling operations can move the part. Finish off the bore then skim the o/d.
That's a really good point. I'm learning a lot of machining is managing forces. Thanks for the tip!
Everytime I see another machinist work it reminds me how good Adam really is. All better than me still. Good video bro
It will take a lifetime in the shop to catch up with him. Thanks
@@InheritanceMachining you're pretty good yourself

Contenido de altísima calidad!!! Gracias por compartirlo!!!😎
Thank you!
Fun video! As an engineer and machinist myself, I found it very enjoyable. Especially the side projects. It seems as though every project always has a side quest. Or many of them.
Have you considered single point threading in reverse (from the chuck to the end of the part)? I learned this tip from BlondieHacks, who said she learned it from Joe Pie. It greatly reduces the drama since you position the carriage toward the work by hand, then engage the power feed to drive the carriage back out. The only thing is, you have to mount your cutter upside down, as you did to machine the dog points on your retaining screws.
Much appreciated Jason! Yes I definitely would have preferred to thread in reverse. This was the only internal threading holder I have. You’ve got me thinking though. I think I would need the reverse style holder rather than just flipping the tool. I’ll have to check out their videos to see if I follow you correctly
@@InheritanceMachining As I recall, they used a boring bar with v-cutter rotated 180 degrees. Unfortunately, I haven't tried the technique myself, as my South Bend Model 10 restoration is on hold for an extended business trip.
Ive watched every video pretty much as soon as it came out. Time to subscribe!
Ha! Much appreciated!
Nice Job Brandon! I have 5c and R8 collet fixtures on my to do list if I ever get the time.
Steve
Thanks, Steve! I'm honestly surprised my grandfather didn't already have a set of these. Same with you! haha
@@InheritanceMachining I always did most of my indexing in a spin fixture. I have 2 high quality ones and can get any angle I need very easy with them. Also, have the option for complete round work and angle work in the same fixture.
Nicely done. I have an almost full set of round 215 collets (similar style to 5C but oversized - holds up to 1 3/4"), plus a few odd ball square and hex. On my to do list is to make collet blocks for them.
Nice. I can say this is a fun project. Could probably knock it out in a weekend if you have the time.
Great video I enjoy your style and commentary. Sometimes the side jobs at the best part of the big job. It makes you slow down and rethink before you go too fast and make a mistake. Can’t wait till the next video.
You have a point! I have no bought they will be a recurring theme in my stories. Thanks for the support.
My favorite new channel!
Wow! Thanks!
I love this channel so far. I see that you aren't wearing a ring or watch like Adam Savage when working on the lathe👍. Good machine shop safety compared to other TH-camrs that use a lathe.
Maybe I was just being stealthy but I definitely forgot to take my ring off! I have better habits on the woodworking tools since those have bit me before. More than once. Appreciate the reminder though!
@@InheritanceMachining Oh, I must have missed the ring. Wearing a long sleeve shirt bothers me less. It might be good to take off a watch, rings, and long sleeve clothing at the drafting desk. I totally understand if it is cold in the shop. When I worked in a machine shop that got cold. Some of my coworkers wore insulated vests that were tighter fits. I would suggest some like the Carhartt insulated overalls/vests. It does not have to be Carhartt, but some made from duck canvas.
Inspiring! My new favorite chanel 😍😃
Wow! Thank you!
Man, now I really want to spend a $100k to setup a shop like this just to make something that I can buy with $50.
Nice job, keep up the good work 👍🏼
Much appreciated! Though you would be surprised how affordable used machine tools are.
Great work on the machining and the video. I see great things coming for this channel. Cheers from South Africa.
Much appreciated!
Enjoyed the latest episode. I was taught drafting in high school and college. I still design stuff in my head in three view format. For filming your videos there are shadows at some angles especially at the lathe . Perhaps an LED light on a tripod will do the trick.AL B.
Thanks Sally. I have a few light issues I am still working out
Very nicely done and beautiful drawings.
Thank you!
You have made your Grandpa so proud !😂
Nice job. I think we are all familiar with projects that lead to more projects.
Not to be confused with projects that need to be done before the originally intended project! Haha
You should have put the 5C internal thread inside the nut for the collet stop. A very useful addition.
Fantastic episode. Well done. 👍👍😎👍👍
Thanks!
Your grandfather would be so proud.
Thank you 🙏
you have a new subscriber from the uk. really like the content, and i still miss my lathe & mill. hopefully work will be starting on my new workshop soon but you know how life can get in the way
Much appreciated. Yes I definitely do. I've basically been waiting 10 years for this.
keep it up what a great gift you've acquired
Thank you!
Getting TOT vibes from this guy. Subscribed!
That's quite the compliment. Thank you!
G'day mate, top job. Great to see the usage of these great machines. Your in a great position to get all this gear and be able to use it. Many would have just got rid of it. Looking forward to more videos mate . Ta Steve
Much appreciated!
I must admit that your channel creeps me out a bit. It's like watching myself. Our life paths are almost identical! Same workshop problems, equipment, skills, etc.
Only difference thus far is I purchased my "inherited" shop from a long time friend and I worked as a CNC machinist, but did go to school for engineering.
I thoroughly enjoy your videos and appreciate that you take time to "video" document your progress. Looking forward to seeing what the future holds for "us". lol
Very cool! I'm learning a lot of people have a similar passion as me for keeping these manual machines, and the skill to use them, alive. And I'm glad for it! Thanks for following along!
Good work. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎
Very cool! Much appreciated
your hand drawn prints are better than any print I've had to deal with at my job 😂 coming from a welder fabricator
😂 I'm sorry for you!
Very enjoyable and instructive. Thanks for sharing this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi buddy, I just subscribed to your channel. Very good stuff here and very good quality video with a calm relaxed mature feel. Congrats on inhereting your grandfather's awesome machines. What a blessing. By the way your Trinco blasting cabinet was made right around the corner from my house in Fraser, MIchigan. Needless to say I have one just like yours. Although, I bought mine lightly used at a good price and not at Trinco, lol. Anyhoo, great channell so far. Good luck with everything you do with it.
That's pretty cool! Other than the big machines, the blast cabinet was one of the things I was most excited for. I use it all the time. Thanks for the support!
Your Channel really looks promising, noticed a lot new Machinists TH-camrs recently, nice to see :)
Thank you! I agree. Definitely nice to see more machining related content. 3D printers are cool and all, but it's all kindof the same.
Man U scored some nice gear from your pops
Considering how much rust you have to remove from the different tools it might pay you to get a rust removal pan, and some de-rusting solution. Soak the parts overnight, and maybe run them against a wire brush wheel in the morning.
Way ahead of you!
