close the window, the city17 ambience is bleeding into your audio.

[@marshallgibson89]

I don't know what city17 is. But the ambience, except the woman's voice, is very similar to Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (1999) Raccoon City sounds. Even the crows are fitting. Also you can hear the howls of the zombie dogs in the distance.

combine: *chilling* angry man running at you with a crowbar combine: OH SHIT

[@JaytheJaskonian]

@@marshallgibson89 the background ambience, specifically including the combine radio sound effects and the woman announcer's voice, is from half life alyx, which takes place initially in a fictional futuristic dystopian city in europe called city 17.

[@Trancefreakeh]

@@JaytheJaskonian Is it specifically Alyx? I simply thought the HL2 series. I'm not a connoisseur though.

[@JaytheJaskonian]

@@Trancefreakeh Actually now that you mention it, it very well could be one of the tracks from the original series. I just know it appears in alyx during the opening sequence and beginning of the game, but it would make sense if it were remastered from HL2

[@palidinetimmtexan3622]

Thank you for this kind of content. You have greatly helped my understanding of the gearboxes and the tech work involved. I really do appreciate your channel more than you could imagine.

[@slinkyfpv]

I like raising the sector gear JUST high enough to make a light swirl pattern in the grease of the spur gear. I also start shimming based off the bevel and pinion gear. I have a feeling he did this just to piss people off. I love it!

[@SiliconeSword]

Jesus bro, your american accent is right on, like exactly. That's like half of the airsoft people I see irl sadly

[@f1shdude]

Love your videos man. Ive been playing airsoft for almost 8 years and have done a lot of tech work on my own guns. By far the best guide and best advice ive ever been given and your videos are addicting to watch. No stupid gimks and cheesey parts just basic reliable advice. Thanks

Dude, I'd just like to say, I've been watching your videos for about 2 months now, I thought fuck it, i'm going to try build a DMR myself. I've watched all your videos tried to get as much knowledge as i can. Now i've got (what i like to think) flawless VSS DMR that fires beautifully. All through your expertise. I've never built or opened gearboxes before but thanks to you I've learnt a new hobby!

[@squiddle5193]

Really digging the City 17 ambience, I almost feel like I'm actually in London rn.

[@elektra81516]

Wasn't expecting Half Life 2 ambience at the start! I had to check if i left my game open for a sec

[@NeCtRiCkS]

Beautiful. I’m going to get a Cyma after hearing you say so many nice things about them. It’s the most hated brand in Brazil haha

[@janee7995]

You can't go wrong on a cyma. Got their p90 The one I want next cm076

[@smileydog5941]

It's because cyma used to be a bad brand a few years ago, but their new models are very good for their price.

[@kalembrobert9834]

I started loving the channel also for the music you play and the fact that people can hear it. When I mess with my gearbox or build anything I play some of your old vids in the background, wish I knew the playlist tbh please just be you and they can eat it.

I personally like the music. I do music in my videos as well i think it just adds to it and makes it more entertaining.

[@TheUnchosenOne]

most of the time I really dont appreciate music in videos but yours are always well balanced with the other audio and mood fitting so its not noticeable at all

[@alphadecline]

I got confused when I heard the half life ambience playing and I thought I left GMOD open

[@TheActionBastard]

You explained more about shimming in 5 minutes of poking at the gearbox than hours of reading explanations by other people talking about listening to the gearbox or vaguely telling you to "check your shims" what the fuck does that mean? How? Where? What is proper? You didn't even need words... just did the thing and I instantly understood why and how. Definitely got a like out of me for that alone.

[@STOPdropANDglockIT]

Bro you can play whatever music you want to at whatever volume you want to I've learned so much from you you're producing free educational videos if people don't like anything about that then they can f**k off to one of the other airsoft channels or whatever

If I said that it was anything other than the well positioned use of cursing and dgaf that got me to subscribe, I'd be lying 😂

I do spur then bevel then sector and close gearbox with screws to check . More time consuming but holding together isn't always the same as when it's fully closed. Obviously you know from experience but for someone new I feel it's better

[@johnzaknich3979]

Cheers mate for the schooling with not just the gearbox set up.

[@c.michailidis6808]

This is the proper way to shim. More helpful if you glued the bearings but no problem

I love your comment about the music 😉 But ive got to ask, what is it, sounds like the newer electro stuff that came out on street sounds? Im guessing you are about my age so know what im talking about.

[@solo636]

Quick question, do most airsoft guns need to be shimmed out of the box? Or would you wait for warranty to expire before doing any work on said new gun. I think I'm going to go with the g&g cmf 16. Thank you for your time and consideration.

[@igorsjakovlevs556]

Bought cyma highspeed g36, spun the busing inside a case on a spur gear after first game (4 hour game but eh) So i had to bore the gearbox for next bushing size, thank god i have a workshop. Had i opened it up, put a dab of loctite on bushings, shimmer and regreased, god this thing would work till this day xD Typically i dont trust warranty that much, because you will waste heaps of time and nerves.

[@michaelbirchall2247]

17:26 Could I just ask the reason for taking the last 4 teeth off? I know they're not needed, but do they get in the way or weight saving etc.

[@MrDrewdubz]

Holy fucking nostalgia those sounds 👌

[@JacobbBrah]

Can somebody tell me what manufacture the red cylinder head, piston head and piston are? Thanks!

[@moocamttv8429]

I really don't understand why people get upset by doing those gears first. I always start with the spur gear.

[@hakont.4960]

Starting by setting optimal motor height and shimming the bevel gear before the spur and sector is the mechnically correct way to do it and ensures optimal gear meshing through the drivetrain.

[@themarklinengine5408]

Yes, im early By the way which kind of gears do you use in it? Also which kind of motor do you use?

[@Sierra-77]

So wait, what's wrong with the Mosfet???

[@kalm1531]

Hey m8, can you tell apart a good inner barrel from a bad one? Those feckers on the forums sound real dodgy if it comes to that..

[@McCBH1996]

As someone whom is a person with deafness (no hearing in the right ear and only 60% in the left ear) and I have to live with a hearing aid, the volume of music is absolutely spot on, never have I had an issue of hearing Luke, nor of the music being to loud (that's while wearing the hearing aid and watching on the tele and also without the aid using headphones on mobile divices) 💁‍♂️ If the music is an issue then YOUR the issue! Keep doing what ya doing Luke! 👏🏻

[@marcushillerstrom25]

"then YOUR the issue" Your what?

[@darkshock42mlg05]

Nice hl2 ambience. I havent played alyx because i dont have a vr capable pc let along a VR headset

[@barghest9810]

The fact that even the way you could easily spin those gears smoothly just confirms my suspicions that the stock parts in my JG boneyard G36 aren’t worth jack shit to even work with... because as my first dive into teching, this piece of shit had a lot more wrong with it than just a dodgy hop up that I initially assumed (which I wasn’t wrong... the hop chamber and all was bad... it’s just I’m surprised the gearbox could even cycle). Only positive thing I can say about it is that the stock piston and cylinder have a perfect air seal with the new cylinder head I’ve got... but everything else I think just needs scrapped and replaced if I can actually get the parts amidst this pandemic.

[@NegativeAirsoftTech]

I can make a JG gear set sound good, it's just practice. They use the same gears as many chinese manufacturers, you just need a different grease,

[@Gorebashed]

Long live the synths!

[@bradleymorgan8223]

Thanks for the video! I never quite understood the point of taking teeth off of the piston when the sector gear has fewer teeth, can a fellow viewer clue me in?

[@NegativeAirsoftTech]

You don't need to but the less teeth on both, the less risk of PME
