Some of you guys were asking the same questions in the comments, so i'm gonna answer them right here. Why didn't i polish the main part? I wanted to keep that parts original cast structure. That's why i didn't sandblast, grind, wire brush or polish it. I also think it gives a nice contrast to the rest. Thank you guys for all your support lately, i really do appreciate it.

[@FrederickDunn]

Another cappuccino break very well spent. One of the many reasons your video is so appealing, aside from the many skills demonstrated, is that this takes me back to my own childhood when I would follow my grandfather around while he tinkered at his workbench, fixing everything from clocks to violins and hand making lost parts. AND much like my grandfather, you go about your tasks without speaking and yet the lessons are well learned and the methods passed down. You must be an old soul, as today, we live in a disposable society, where the old is cast away and there is the perception that newer is better. What you have there is the ultimate and elegant equalizer for confronting a hornet's nest. Thank you for improving my day.

[@whynotanyting]

I think the lower reservoir (for lighting the main torch) is meant to have a wick, that way you can get a small flame off of the wick rather than a large flame that just sort of goes everywhere.

[@mymechanics]

Thinking about this and you might be right. But what i know for sure is that you have to heat up the main part above first, otherwise it won't work when it's cold. Thanks for the comment.

This is beautifully shot, allows space to wonder and marvel at the skill and craftsmanship, the soundtrack of lathe and sanding/filing is perfect (and Zen-like) and the sheer wonder at the finished article never fails to excite and delight. Its (Your), “I make a new one”’ catchphrase always makes me smile and half the time I ponder, “How is he going do do that!”. All in 15 mins or so. Perfect.
