      Because the barrel is ruined to the point that re-honing would thin the walls too much, but the ends are still useable, and that much professionally shaped metal is expensive.@@karlwithak.

    Hello, Kurtis, Karen and Homeless, my wife watches the videos too and she said you had a new lathe. I looked and told her nope same one you had. As we watched I commented on how the ends had to be removed she said it was easy with good equipment. I told her no, craftsmanship was the key. A good man or woman knowledgeable with marginal tools is still better than a jury rigger with the best tools.

      Personnel pride, if you wouldn't accept the finished product . Don't expect others to be happy with " good enough" . Keep learning everyday, and ask questions to the older better machinist around you. You can do anything you set your mind to do. Just keep believing in yourself good luck and God bless my friend

    Good thing you have the Outtakes. Otherwise we would think nothing ever fails to work perfectly on every job. 😄 Your machining skills notwithstanding, your ability to completely think the entire job through is amazing. You never seem to be in a position of "what to do next." Friday mornings are the highlight of my video week. You two make a great team..!!

    ive been watching your videos for a bit, i just cant stop watching, its become a regular subject for chitchat with my father who also follows you . At 36 years old ive made a U turn in terms of jobs going from a 10 yrs desk job to now back in school for machining. you are an inspiration as i can only hope to have at least half your skills one day sir! your videos are truly professional, if all TH-cam videos could be this well done there would truly be no need for cable tv. hats off to you Mme.! i hope one day to see Australia it looks absolutely beautiful! cheers from Canada!!!!

    Oddly enough, I have not thought about or reflected over this before, but it is really nice to have the explanations separated from most of the machining activity. Thank you for doing an excellent job, both of you! Hugs to Homie and all the best to all of you. 😊

    This channel can teach people things that you won't learn from a book or in a classroom. Kurits is showing how to in real time problem solve on the fly to get the work figured out and done right. Dude knows what he's doing and doesn't have to over-dramatize anything, just solid get in and get it done. Also, I've said it before and I'll say it again, Karen...you're skills are improving as a videographer and editor, seriously you are getting damn good and I see it with each and every video you two produce.

    I really love the variety of parts you´re showing off on the channel. What's even better is that you're showing where the part is used and the nwhy it failed and how future failures can be mitigated. Top notch!!

    Great video, and as always, the "go pro pooch" doesn't disappoint! He must give those cameras a real workout. Careful with George and his buddies as birds do essentially two things in life: eat and poop, everywhere.! I like how the outtakes show you guys laughing at mistakes and frustrations. Keep it up!

    I'm a wanna be senior "machinist"...(not even close) with a hobby lathe and mill. Sometimes it's quite a while using my machines. But after watching you I feel I have to Mahe some chips. You are very methodical and very knowledgeable in your trade. Watching you do your work and watch the machining and welding is almost THERAPUTIC. And your videographer is fantastic!!!

  • @gazzafloss

    Kurtis, you are an incredibly good bird trainer. If you can teach them to machine and weld, (might give a whole new meaning to the term "bird shit" welding), Homey can check the work quality and job safety. Karen and yourself can retire to a life of leisure. Great stuff mate, look forward to part 2.

    Thank you so much for taking us through this process and providing details for guys like me. Your skills are top-notch! I really appreciate that you take the time to explain how the parts are used that come into your shop. It's a good history lesson on how big machines are operated and how you maintain them. The birds and Homey and the out-takes are always a highlight.
