Such a beautiful thing 🎉 I never thought that the pattern for that cap would be so involved. That sure was a lot of work for one casting. Keep up the good work 💯 JIM ❤
BEAUTIFULLY DONE. Forgot about the core box term. Dad made lots of those. So interesting to watch and listen to you. Memories of me sitting on the stool in dad's shop watching him. Thank you.
I do wish my teacher back in high school went way deeper into pattern making or more like show much more interest when he was doing this. I did get good at doing half patterns for sand castings though, still the finest class I ever took.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around how this thing will work. I'm waiting to see how Clark sets it up. My uncle was a patternmaker 50 years ago in Wisconsin. Like you, he made some real works of art. These should be at Christie's. It seems a shame that these beautiful pieces might, (and for hundreds of years, have) end up in a scrap bin or woodstove. I wish I had the skill, patience, and mental acuity to do what you do. Excellent craftsmanship!
Another dying skill. Patternmakers. Nowadays, alot of the patterns are 3d printed from a CAD file and are single use items. "Lost wax" type process. The company I work for had hundreds of wooden patterns dating back to the 1920s. Most have recently been scrapped and new 3D files are generated if they are ever needed. I guess it's less expensive than storing all the patterns in a dry and safe warehouse until needed.
I kinda wish you would've shown the filler and finishing. You said we have seen it done 100 times, but I, and I'm sure more, came over from Leo's channel and have never seen your work before. still an amazing series, and i'm really glad you did it for us!
Great to watch. Thanks for the education about this incredible field of machinery. So much more complicated than I thought. I'm very impressed. This is the great thing about TH-cam, isn't it? That we can learn from real experts and masters in this trade.
Great work and good skills - your working method and ethos is exemplary - I hope your skills will be passed on and endure the test of time. Best wishes from Yorkshire UK~
Early in my engineering career I worked with local pattern makers to make "flow boxes" in order to test out the performance of various diesel engine intake and exhaust ports using an air-flow bench. These were old school patternmakers, and they used Mahogany, wax and plastic as well. These patternmakers are all gone now, but it was very interesting working as a go between them and the port designers.
Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧. Great job very much enjoyed watching the videos. Its great to see the skill and effort rewarded with such a superb result. I am sure that the guys on Tally Ho are greatly appreciative of your work.👍
Hey Dave, may I make a suggestion? Have you considered maybe making the video regular speed or even time lapse. Then do a voice over while the work is being done instead of music. I find there's a lot of talking but little action. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the time you take teaching your craft. I'm very interested. I guess I'm just a visual learner and tend to tune out lecture type presentations. Have you watched any videos from inheritance machining? He does a good combo presentation of work/voice over. It's very easy to watch and understand.
He's just not a good presenter of information. He tend to use too much filler words and repetition of things he's already said. For example, a phrases like "I'm going to go ahead and..." or "what I'm going to do is..." are just unnecessary and doesn't add any new information.
You put this much nicer than I could come up with. I'm super interested in this project but his poor presentation and lack of proper video planning/editing make it painstaking and borderline on unwatchable. I skip through at least 95% of these videos. 😢
Wow. Impressive craftsmanship. Truly enjoyable to watch someone master and really enjoy their craft. As he said its good for the soul. I just wish I spoke this guys language.
Thanks again for taking the time to put out your video's. Answered a bunch of questions on how this core would be made, also wondering what this magic plastic is? Probably not available in California due to VOC or our neighbors trying to eat it. Thanks Again JJ
Love the explanation of what and why please keep educating us. I lived in England for a few years in the Midlands Manchester area , I loved to visit the museums and the resale shops and look at all the beautiful patterns that were made to make all the castings for the Industrial Revolution, as a wood worker and an engineer I found it amazing the detail accuracy and the beauty they achieved. A trip to Sheffield should be in your bucket list the place is full of casting history along with tool makers.
Thanks for showing this process of making the pattern!
Such a beautiful thing 🎉
I never thought that the pattern for that cap would be so involved. That sure was a lot of work for one casting. Keep up the good work 💯
JIM ❤
Old school, right on brother
So impressive. I had no idea it would be SO complicated to make this pattern. Beautiful work, Sir.
Love your work Dave, can`t wait to see the pour!
Not sure I’ll live that long?
Can't wait to see this thing cast.
Neat trick with the dowels.
BEAUTIFULLY DONE. Forgot about the core box term. Dad made lots of those. So interesting to watch and listen to you. Memories of me sitting on the stool in dad's shop watching him. Thank you.
Only a few craftsman can do this. Wonderful workmanship!
Nice to see that pattern completed! Beautiful work, and I appreciate the discussion of the draft angles and core box creation.
What a load of work. I really enjoyed watching this. Well done sir.
It's great to see a real craftsman at work.
Beautiful work! Thanks for taking the time to record and share this with us!
"Good for your soul to do things with your hands." Truer words were never spoken. Well done, Dave.
Your knowledge and talent are astonishing! Thanks for taking time to make these videos.

@@davidwilliams1383 Till the files are corrupt, the servers get hit by lightning, the disk drives are shipped to god-knows-where, etc.
You are absolutely right.
But hey, nobody thinks that far ahead..... until it's too late.
Unbelievable Dave, your a Master Craftsman. Tally Ho here comes Dave's Capstan.
In awe at your skills. A true Craftsman. Thank you for explaining the intrinsics of what you are doing. Such interesting learning.
I'm going to need to watch the actual casting to understand this in context. Really hope the foundry covers this on youtube!
Love watching your videos. the lost art, most excellant skill.
I've seen casting urethanes that were designed for foundry work, but I didn't know how they were used until now. Now it makes a lot of seense!
Nice work. Always wondered how this stuff was done. Sort of it’s own woodworking niche -and a deep one at that. Thank you!
Wow! I never for a moment thought this pattern would be so involved. Love the way you explain things, so thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Awesome

Just finished watching all 5, very well explained and done. I have never seen a core made before and learned a ton. Thank you for doing this.
A craftsman and artisan. Thanks for leading us through this process. Beautiful work!

Wow! I’m catching on but your a little over my head. Excellent skills David . I look forward to see more of your work
Nice work - really appreciate the craftmanship involved
Beautiful work! That thing will make a very nice display piece once the casting is made. I'm going to remember that dowel trick too!
Well done DC - pretty complicated custom work to get the pattern ready. My head is spinning on the details. Thanks for sharing!
Jesus. I've been in industrial maintenance for 36 years. We clearly don't do this. Very admirable. Such precision! Quite admirable.
Dave thanks for passing on your knowledge you are a true craftsman
Great work Dave, a real master peice
The skill level is over the top...you will not see this craftmanship, maybe never again!
Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧. Great job very much enjoyed watching the videos. Its great to see the skill and effort rewarded with such a superb result. I am sure that the guys on Tally Ho are greatly appreciative of your work.👍
This is a mazing. Is this how the original capstan was mad over 100 years ago?

he skips the process almost entirely
Interesting and painful, OK

Ditto
amazing process, amazing memory skills to make it all work too.
Very nice Dave. It is definitely art. Thanks for the videos.
Awesomeness Extreme. What a fantastically wonderful job. Way to Go!
Wow. Impressive craftsmanship. Truly enjoyable to watch someone master and really enjoy their craft. As he said its good for the soul. I just wish I spoke this guys language.
Hey, thanks for the video! Maybe sometime I'm up in Cleveland I can say Hi and shake your hand :)
Fascinating to watch and the best episode yet on this job. How complicated that turned out to be!
True craftsmanship
It finally all comes together and makes sense to me.
great Channel - Thanks ! 😀
Fantastic work.. Very nice..!
Fantastically Awesome Job. Way to Go!
Beautiful work. I've never seen anything like it. I appreciate you taking the time to share with us.
Amazing work!!!
Thanks for working on this. Appreciate your craft.
Absolutely beautiful work Dave ! You are amazing
Thank you for the information
You are one talented man that looks so beautiful
Very impressive job - thank you for sharing.
Came here from the Sampson boat Channel - great work and interesting.,
Great job! I am so impressed with your skills.
That's exacting logical work there. Very nice!
This was a great series and up until thirty minutes ago, I had no idea how this pattern was going to work.
Awsome music bro!
Thanks for the education! Great project.
Fantastic series Dave, thanks for the videos!
Looking good dave
I hope someone saves those Old CRTs, lol.
Kids: "You mean TVs werent always flat?"
Amazing craftmanship dude, great job!
Nice one Dave!
Very nice work !
Absolutely incredible. Thank you.
Great job, Dave. Keep teaching!
Could you please give details of the blue plastic you used.
Great work dave
Good work man.
Thanks again for taking the time to put out your video's. Answered a bunch of questions on how this core would be made, also wondering what this magic plastic is? Probably not available in California due to VOC or our neighbors trying to eat it. Thanks Again JJ
One never realises the craftsmanship required to create what might seem to be a simple piece of casting.
I've been kinda wondering if there is supposed to be a "cover" for the top hole to cover the but and shaft to protect it some from the weather
Please show us the mold and pour footage when it happens !!! Please !!!! Please 🙏
Great job 😊
Love the explanation of what and why please keep educating us.

amazing!
Thanks for the video
Making this mold is insanely labor intensive and complex.
makes me wonder how much hand work had to be done to make the original casting? Awesome
WOW, impressive craftsman ship, feel privileged to have witnessed it. What direction does your big disk sander rotate?
It rotates clockwise, either from the front or from the back.
thanks, looking at the video that is what it looked like. It is opposite my small 12" Delta@@jacklav1
You may have answered this before, but what is the plastic you are using?
U make that look easy kinda like working on cars lol
hi dave how does this pattern work? I'm a bit confused about which parts go where for making the sand mould
But, he is a fantastic craftman, really.
Leo is lucky for sure
Three months and counting for the pattern. Must be a lot more difficult than expected.
Nice listening to you.
You really love the sound of your voice.
The only interesting bit was at the end when you actually did something.
So the top is the only part that needs to be patterend? The rest was totally recoverable?
Thanks!!!
Just looking at the pattern, looks like a clock face. Maybe a good use for Leo
When is this Capstan going to be poured and eventually completed, after all the Tally Ho is nearing some sort of completion
