Super Skills - ft Delboy

[@WalkerKlondyke]

Dude, that guys wrong. You're gonna screw stuff up and you're passing on BAD information. Maybe you should consult someone who actually knows what they're doing, like an actual engineer, before you get people hurt.

[@tpach89]

WalkerKlondike right over your head lmao

[@WalkerKlondyke]

Tony P Is that some kind of short guy joke? Just FYI, I’m 6’ 1”, so, I doubt much is going over my head.

[@tpach89]

WalkerKlondike I don’t really know how to respond to you, friend. The only thing I can say is... my comment must’ve went right over your head... lmao

[@WalkerKlondyke]

Tony P maybe YOU should ask an engineer!

[@tpach89]

WalkerKlondike wow... I hope you’re not the engineer I should be asking...

[@davidhogg7720]

so so funny, im off to make an emulsion of water and oil to cut my loaf dont want my bread knife overheating as it might make toast and I want a sarnie lol

[@kermit30au]

Thanks for the update. I was about to drill into some depleted uranium but stopped in time to call up the Marine and Harbours department to organise a pilot boat. Thanks.

[@VicReeves]

I lost it when you stopped to say how impressed you were with your centre punching.

[@kawi704racing]

I think this has to be the best Workshop video.

[@jameserbe8549]

How in the he'll did you do the whole video without rolling on the floor laughing? Not even a snigger omg so brilliant

[@dirtygarageguy]

There were quite a few takes LOL

[@jameserbe8549]

I cal imagine I was laughing from 10 seconds lol

[@bradleybatt1401]

it is

[@sandman8367]

Matt, I need to drill a couple of 12mm holes in glass. Should i use a small centre punch to align the boat drill bit? I don't want to scrape the glass !

[@casemodder89]

Sandman just give it a good whack and of course pilot drill with that super super super super hardcock HSS drill bit !

[@asdfasdfasdfasdf3209]

Of course, you should, just remember to punch it with the minimum speed of 65 m/s xD (PRL paper: journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.174302) example implementation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4PHe2OKYtt4pNE (I know it's old, but I had to do it anyway)

[@karolkowalczyk1578]

Make sure you use a glass hammer and you’ll be ok 👍, also use WP40 on yer bit !

[@Henrik.Yngvesson]

Back in school we had a forging class and that class tend to bring a few girls cause of it's artistic side to it and one girl was going to drill a 10mm hole in a piece of flat bar iron. I saw from the other side of the workshop how she hanged with all her weight on the lever and the drill at this moment was glowing red. I was to far away to bother as there was no obvious danger but I watched how she pulled on that lever and tried to literally melt her way through, the drill and iron bar started to melt but she didn't stop until the drill started burning and sending of sparks. I think she then asked the teacher for help and he said "you must've pulled like crazy" where she responded "NO I didn't pull hard at all". The iron looked like you've pushed something down into butter.

[@DreadedRider]

This came up in my feed again - I've got tears in my eyes, I forgot how funny it was. Jesus, Del is such a legend! HSS = Hard Super Slippy 🤣I am going to have to print out that as some sort of 3D sign to remind me when I working on the bike

[@michaelhodgson1576]

I have no words your videos should come with government health warnings 1/ Do not eat whilst watching videos this may cause an uncontrolled spray of food 2/ watching these videos may cause strain to rib cage area due to increase in histerical laughter Love to stop and chat but I've got about a million drill bits to grind down

[@noobybadgerFTW]

smacking the centre punch got me. class video.

[@mikegrady4]

Dude, that was the proper way to do a roast.....just saying. You get a real AT-A-BOY!

[@justinharris3429]

Please do a video about dels 50% water 50% 2 stroke mix affects on an engine.

[@poet99999]

Evan's and 2 stroke oil 50/50 mix

[@davidtaylor9492]

You should be on the stage mate, I’ve not laughed so much in ages fucking tears rolling down my face. But seriously the guys a fucking danger to himself and his subscribers

[@davidtaylor9492]

The perfect example of the old saying “ a little knowledge can be dangerous “ 🙄

[@ridetheslowlane6642]

A masterpiece of satire! Brilliant and hopefully sends a serious message to those who might blindly follow DB's uninformed advice.

[@gixxerman0016]

Love it, I think it's great you're now taking your cue from Del & working together. Brilliant.....there's nothing quite like a good laugh with Del :)

[@drumulcatreyahuah7673]

I got Home , sit down to eat and put on this video... I was in tears 😭 🤣🤣🤣 Had to watch it till the end this masterpiece, then eat ... This was awesome mate

[@loz11968]

Bollocks now I have a box of broken tiles every time I centre punch them they break ..... pmsl

[@ShallowBeThyGames]

Well, you can score the glaze to prevent wandering on tiles.

[@loz11968]

ShallowBeThyGames I always use tape either masking or electrical tape to prevent the drill wandering. The centre punching tiles did happen a friend of mine from years back was asked how to stop a drill wandering when you try to drill and he told them to use a centre punch..... when he went around later the guy had a load of broken tiles lol

[@ElmarDylong]

The scary thing is he is dead serious about that crap, lies and his ill fantasies he blows in the world.

[@fuzzy1dk]

that Delboy character is obviously satire, right ?

[@ElmarDylong]

I wish it was...

[@fuzzy1dk]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law

[@rationalmartian]

No Lasse. He isn't a troll, parody, satire, pastiche, skit or comedy channel. The fucking moron is absolutely serious. And he appears to actually believe that he indeed does now and understand about engineering. Granted Poe's law has become harder and harder to spot. But Delboy is a beautiful example of the Dunning Kruger effect. And the fact a smattering of knowledge can be dangerous.

[@gizzync1525]

I know the problem with the oil. Use Evans. 1 drop will keep the drill bit at bub zero temps. It's that efficient.

[@angusmacgillivray4741]

Thank you so much Matt for bringing this video to our attention. My $300 set of drills, for drilling cobalt apparently, were all 135 degrees. Cheap shitty drills, I am surprised they drilled as well as they did in alfoil. All reground now to 45 or 90 degrees but I can't round the point like Bell End Boy did. I obviously need more practice.

[@evildogbilly]

I find that the metal being drilled can get hot so I let the drill bit grab it and spin it around for 30 seconds or so , this is called air cooling , it’s another old 2 stroke trick from the 80s , shit I’m glad no one rides 2 strokes anymore

[@heroinwithease]

People don't ride 2 stroke anymore do you live under a rock they deffo do still ride them

[@evildogbilly]

heroin with ease wow m8 , the sarcasm isn’t lost on you is it , considering I’m riding a 2 stroke in my profile pic

[@heroinwithease]

@@evildogbilly yeah cause I'd take a long hard look at ya tiny picture you fucking melon next ur gonna say the police do their jobs

[@roythearcher]

I did put up a long winded comment about how del should sharpen his "carbide" drill bit, Can't seem to find it on there now for some reason, Can't think why! Oh well, he'll have to find out the hard way.......

[@aa-kv2pq]

Thanks Matt so glad someone finally told the truth and showed everyone that safety glasses are for the drill !! the amount of times we've spent weeks stuck drifting at sea unable to fix our ship because some nugget went and used the safety glasses for their own eyes rather than the drills protection then the drill got injured and our flux capacitors were fucked and we couldn't fix them without a drill tough times man tough times

[@X3ROxMBK]

hilarious! I now realise how dumb I was trusting in his words a year ago before finding your channel...

[@233kosta]

X3ROxMBK Eh... live and learn!

[@roythearcher]

You're lucky! Some twats are still watching....

[@Fubarthenomad]

"in the 80's two strokes ran on an oil and water emulsion" Sorry been watching you for a while but that quote is unbelievable Dell, everyone knows the best super slippery oily lube for YOUR two stroke is a 10 weight semi synth oil mixed with a fine aluminium oxide powder also a great cheap octane booster ( and not a lot of people know this ) is nail varnish remover we used to use that a lot drag racing in the eighties

[@dylanheadrick3789]

Del thinks carbide is impressive? I once tried to melt a porcelain teacup down to forge a knife out of it. Damn thing shattered once I gave it a good whack. I was sure 30 minutes with an oxy torch would have softened it at least some.

[@MrNatbatten]

Maybe you should have used Dels Magick Potion to soften it a bit?

[@JunkCCCP]

You don't melt down ceramic to make knives, you have to cold forge it. You putting the torch to it is probably what caused the cup to shatter

[@AirwolfBMG]

Dylan Headrick No No you miss heard dell. The tea pot was for sharpening your Knife. Just flip it over and rub the base,😂

[@xibidit]

omg del is so stupid its awsome! this was fun hope del doesn't shut down his channel over this i want more of these vids :D

[@evil_me]

Engage safety squints!!!!!!!!

[@igneous061]

Good old uncle bumblefck

[@wittemotor100]

Absolutely hilarious! Keep on rubbing the bits mate! Cheers from the netherlands!

[@markwestley397]

This is some of the best advice on the interwebs. I am going straight down to my local engineering firm today in the hope I can educate them.

[@ferrumignis]

For a large holes a pilot boat may not be enough, so make sure you give it a couple of tugs to pull the main bit through.

[@stevek3036]

Del states that the angle of the dangle must be concentric to the dingle of the hand vice. What is so difficult to understand - people should give the guy a break. We all know he is out of his depth but please give DelBoy some cred' He's invested in borrowing a pillar drill and hand vice at no small expense for our education. You might not know but over on the Isle of Wight they only recently discovered hot and cold running water so he is well ahead of the curve when it comes to drilling. Basic stuff to Del

[@jbretel]

OMG - Thank you sooo much Mat - I used to end up with 'The 3 Stooges' at the end of an evening's Youtubing - purely for 'Comic Calmdown Light Relief' - But you've now provided me with a lifetimes entertainment with Mr Del - His 'Parody Workshop Comedy Show' is the best/funniest thing on YT!!! SKY Comedy Channel will be offering him a deal shortly no doubt - I'm off to buy some large y-fronts - to watch the next episode in - ROTFLMFAO

[@ktmpasser]

I’m a journeyman machinist. I’ve got a lot of work to do Monday morning getting all my drills ground down to the shape of a dart. Then I need to swap out the semi-synthetic coolant for that 303 spray stuff. Can I get that in a 55 gallon drum ‘cause I’ve got 6 machines to change out. My boss is gonna be so impressed. I’m sure I’ll get his attention. This could be a game changer for me! I’m sure of it............

[@bigjoe4020]

that was funny especially to me as a Mechanical Engineer....super super super slippy stuff

[@rob5472]

LITERALLY THE FUNNIEST THING YOU HAVE DONE ! it showed up after delboys latest drill sharpening video, he has clearly removed the old one now

[@dirtygarageguy]

He removed the old one 2 days after I released this.

[@jediknight1294]

The sound that drill was making hurt my very SOUL. also I'd love to see the GP bike run with emulsions of oil and water in the engine deliberately

[@Gahet]

I was scrolling through the comments when I heard Del deliver that line of bullshit with such conviction I thought he botched a joke at first. Once I saw the "aren't I fucking smart, I bet you didn't know that" look on his face I had to replay it a couple times to confirm I wasn't in a waking nightmare or hallucinating. I bet you could plant the idea in his head that he possessed the answers to all our questions regarding the nature of dark matter, and he'd wake up the next morning believing it without a doubt in his mind. Fuuuuck!

[@Stephane1995]

"I've been rubbing this for about two weeks now and it hasn't gone soft yet" what's your secret?

[@howey935]

Your sarcasm is first class.

[@panrides9885]

Been watching your videos for a few weeks now, i enjoy the technical stuff but you fukin crack me up with the delboy stuff, laughed all the way through this. I used to watch his stuff till i watched some of yours, now i cant watch them anymore lol. Cant beleive he took it down, obviously knows he was wrong. Keep it up Mat..

[@vladimirskitchen1820]

Soooo. Watercooled engines will actually last longer and run better with a blown headgasket once the oil and water mix properly?......Amazing! I might just go and remove my headgasket now.

[@grumpyg9350]

It is just amazing. Del has to be doing a satire. There is no way he said that on purpose.

[@pkuudsk9927]

5 minutes later and still pissing myself laughing

[@jef____4054]

Fair play Matt that's quite funny mate.... I'm surprised dels channel still hasn't popped up in my recommended video... Makes me laugh..!

[@ogri48]

And I’ve always worried about it when I’ve blown a head gasket and got oil in the coolant. What a dick! Now I realise it helps make the coolant super super super slippy! No more wasting money on head skims and rebuilds! Thanks Del!👍👍

[@andytinline3268]

Having breakfast and pissing my self laughing. This is what the workshop needs on a Monday morning. Keep it up Matt until he ends up killing someone Well done bud

[@Duffman-gj4fs]

oh my god!!! wow ! just wow ! it just keeps going and going. it gets worse the more i watch it !! - i love the video Matt, keep them up.

[@danielduke5059]

If you put the metal in the freezer the night before it helps with cooling and also makes it super slippy like ice! There's a bonus as the metal shrinks slightly in the freezer so you won't need to buy larger drill bits as you can use smaller drill bits and when the metal gets back to room temperature the hole will also expand! 🙈🙉🙊

[@Trumplican]

I was having a bad day and this video popped up in the recommendations. its even better the second time around I was laughing the entire time!!

[@kylethetreekat840]

I think this is the best video I’ve seen

[@stylr882]

Abom79 has some serious competition with you two pro's ;)

[@Paul-pb3vq]

Stylr I know it's sad, but I have sat watched that guys videos . He is one fine engineer .

[@robbo1967]

I hope Keith Fenner/Adam Booth/Tom Lipton see D. Buoys video, they've been getting it wrong all the time...

[@1240enzo]

Heh heh, bleeding brilliant !! Though I reckon you should have used copper grease as that too is super super slippery. Maybe even more so than water. Dingbat Del obviously is the master 🤣. An absolute classic Matt👍

[@dampweasels1442]

Fucking genius, love the SSSS cutting fluid. My ribs are aching.

[@spallcast]

It's scary how much people here don't get the satyre...

[@gavinkerber7165]

Great touch with the 303, I was dying man.

[@poet99999]

what is 303? real question

[@JAMESWUERTELE]

poet99999 works awesome on anything rubber, leather seats, cv boots, etc. I use it a lot for automotive

[@westyorkshirebiker8270]

Thanks to Del Ive just bought a set of Sealey super slippy hard plastic drills for my workshop.

[@crackedemerald4930]

Oh man, the ultimate collab!

[@beachboardfan9544]

Drill bits a drill bit, mash it in there till it comes out the other end! ...how has natural selection not sorted out Del for us!?

[@fqcraigus]

How to brighten my Monday morning LMAO I'll take these tips to work with me today

[@nepcros]

My jaw was of the floor I almost lost all respect for your channel till you put the glasses on the drill press... then I almost pissed myself laughing. Thank you.

[@dmbassett]

Safety first - for the Drill Press. LOL. Gold!

[@garydates8034]

funniest thing I have seen for ages THANK YOU

[@FredWilbury]

Man I was cracked up.... thanks a million for a super slippy vid 😉....... regards Fred

[@troycunningham8645]

Only been watching you since appearing on "on your bike" so now have the great experience of watching loads of Matt! The Delboy vids are my new daily humour, anyone who didn't know what you were about wouldn't notice the SARCASM hahaha love your work

[@dirtygarageguy]

Welcome to the channel dude

[@DISORDERLYPUNK]

lol i cant stop laughing throughout this - i do center punch but only to make sure i drill where i want to - nice to see your safety glasses are closer than mine ever are

[@angusmacgillivray4741]

Quick tip I just learnt. My grinding wheel spins downward, obviously the wrong way for drill sharpening. Just rewire it to spin upward to get it to grind up the back face towards the tip away from the front edge at a tangent to the point at the other end from the round section.

[@angusmacgillivray4741]

Another quick tip I just learnt. Matt, if your extra tight virgin olive oil and water emulsion keeps separating out, don't panic, just use a dab of COPPER GREASE on your tip and you will be deep drilling holes in no time. Trefolex? Fook it. I wouldn't spread it on my toothbrush

[@angusmacgillivray4741]

And while I am inbetween glasses of claret, my ears pricked up when Cockhead, no, um Del mentioned the 50/50 water oil mix the 500GP teams used. Just made a fresh brew and topped up the '49 Bantam with it. Will test and report in the morning. I don't think he is in the country at the moment but I will ask Jeremy Burgess when he gets back, what brand of water did they mix with the two stoke oil? was it sparkling or still?

[@globalfallout7249]

Absolutely fecking awsome havent laughed so much in ages. Great stuff as always mat. Keep em comeing.

[@randersson3672]

I watched during lunch...nearly killed me =)

[@invisblegt]

I’m crying. The tungsten carbide bit(see what i did there) is pure gold.

[@TheCerovec]

How did i miss this one. This is fuckin gold 😂😂

[@midgrave]

This is gold.

[@Goguleroma]

After years still scares me how seriously and convincing is your acting here.

[@Paul-FrancisB]

Funniest thing I've seen for a while, shame I missed the original vid. O pointy drill, o pointy pointy. Anoint his head, anointy-nointy. The man with no brains :-)

[@pinussylvestris]

I also have a tip, that I have just made up as I go along writing this comment. If you buy a second battery for your bike and serial connect it to your stock battery, it makes the headlight much brighter. It also makes the spark on the spark plug twice as big, which as a bonus makes the engine twice as hot. But that is not an issue if you have the Evans waterless coolant! 👍

[@alastairdifford2028]

That was amazing lol. I have to admit It takes some skill to get that smooth curve on his drill bit lol

[@johnhansen929]

Hey Matt! What lubrication do you use when you drill a left hand hole? Do you use any additives to compensate for the rotation forces of the earth interfering with the rotation of the drill bit?

[@robertmurphy2960]

I'm a tool maker carbide is not the same as high speed steal or tungsten. Carbide will not melt at the same lower heats as steal alloys. It consists of fine particles of carbide cemented into a composite by a binder metal. Cemented carbides commonly use tungsten carbide(WC), titanium carbide (TiC), or tantalum carbide(TaC) as the aggregate. Mentions of "carbide" or "tungsten carbide" in industrial contexts usually refer to these cemented composites.

[@robertmurphy2960]

Which I'm not saying you are wrong for the spot on criticism. Just stuff and things you know?

[@Paul-pb3vq]

The correct angle for steel is 60 degrees inclusive . And my experience is 43 years in engineering .

[@haazimkhalid8087]

I'm a Machinist...I watched this....laughed so hard... now I'm unwell 😂

[@outwrite11]

Del is my engineering God. So glad to see you endorsing his word.

[@bobgrant-beer3020]

I'm going to show this video to my apprentices. Hilarious!! I also think that you poked a Hornets nest full of Del Boys fans. Lol.

[@Johnrockerldn]

by him pulling the video shows he doesnt believe in what he talks about anyway, if he feels he is right he would leave it up

[@timmccarthy3589]

Best video of yours yet

[@karolkowalczyk1578]

Matt....... Del can’t be wrong he’s the Mistic Mystic Mesiah !

[@BatterseaBill]

That drill thingy you got, should have a scotoiler fitted to it, don't you no noughfink.

[@mr_mon-eye]

Literally the best thing I’ve watched in the last 12 months. LMAO. Think I’m going to have to watch this again lmao

[@MrAdam8419]

Oh my god thank you Matt you have cheered me up, but also point out Del is yet again encouraging dangerous workshop practice. Listen too him talk is like Jay from the Inbetweeners. Have a good day.

[@Ticc82]

It's like he read the Wikipedia articles about machining and metallurgy five minutes before he shot the videos after knowing nothing on the subject at all.

[@JunkCCCP]

It's like he read them backwards in a mirror and then wrote down what he could remember 2 weeks later

[@JunkCCCP]

"two stroke racers, they used a mix of oil and something right? Yeah sounds about right, oil and water it must have been. I'm pretty sure I read about tungsten carbide before, that muse be what these drills are made of. Yeah sounds about right."

[@MetroidChild]

I like how del doesn't understand that normal oil/water mixtures need emulsion agents (basically high tech dishsoap) to not separate.

[@ringspanner]

Absolute gold

[@jamessearle2339]

Dels the man he knows his stuff !!! I just wonted to say 50% Spunk and 50% water is also good for drilling it also improves the fertility of the metal .

[@bentaxelrod]

Ooo Matt, you’re so naughty, taking the piss out of Del. I watched Del’s video about a week ago, but bit my lip and refrained from comment. Lots of others said it all fo me. He just had to go to an engineering text book to get the correct angles. It does my ‘ead in.

[@theperfectdark6167]

just noticed that Del makes a massive fuss about the drills being a 90 degree point but the pilot drill he is using is the standard 118 degree xD

[@sergioferreira766]

I wish I could give this 1000 likes!!! Got to hand it to you, great way to make a point.

[@luckyr3675]

this is too funny, great work the workshop

[@444th8]

Fantastic.

[@hodgy87]

just finished a week of nights and have just woke the house up i was laughing that hard....well played Matt Sir, well played :)

[@TheAimbot9000]

Is there a prize for making it to the end without rage quitting?

[@MrAli171]

Just found this one absolutely classic
