This channel is soooo underrated

[@delucain]

Best channel with under 100k subs for sure.

[@skeet7075]

@@delucain faxxxx

[@vincent1734]

When this channel will get 100k subscrivers, I will be able to say that I was there, from the begining. I hope it will get there at least.

[@Ozmandius]

his hands are sooooo underwashed though :|

[@cranktowncity]

Ya'll are too kind! Thanks for the support! (even you, sanitarium0114)

[@1992jamo]

I have no idea how you can be so lapse with tolerances yet end up with something so fantastic. My projects take forever because I need everything to be right, and still run into so many engineering problems that you don't. You must have a gift!

[@umbralup8993]

I am the same way. I have a colleague who is super smart and his motto is "Never let perfect get in the way of operational". I am trying to model my life after that.

[@umbralup8993]

I'm a fabrication engineer by trade, and I gotta say, you're a bad man. I'm loving the channel and your builds. You're a beast man. I think you should be doing all this on a much larger scale. Not sure what you do for a living but you should really be doing this. Imma finish bing watching your vids! Good luck man. Keep cranking this shit out.

[@Liam-ir6xm]

i laughed way to hard at the rusty aluminum 😂 quality content, keep up the awesome work bud.

[@cranktowncity]

haha everything in the pile on the side of my house comes out with a liberal coating of rust. Thanks for the support!

[@andylarson6877]

2:22 YEAH BUUUUDDY, spiral flute taps FOR THE EFFIN WIN!!!!

[@robwgeorge]

Nice shout out to Matthias Wandel he's great too. You're a great mentor about jumping in and getting into a project. Embrace the Ooopsies!

[@cranktowncity]

Thanks man! 'Embrace the Oopsies' is an excellent saying haha

[@andreaudio]

Would you look at THAT! AWESOME video again!

[@bruceboggemes9724]

Binge watched entire channel only to get Rick Rolled at the end. Awesome!

[@cranktowncity]

hahahaaa gotem! Thanks for the support!

[@maxhouseman3129]

I am jealous because of your welding skills. Like your way of freestyling!

[@badmeatbrowniesthoughts1327]

Noice!!!. I forgot to hit notification bell 🔔 🙃. So had to check for part 2. And here it is! Awesome job brother ! ! 👏. And notification bell pushed 😉

[@graegoles8382]

aw man ur gonna blow up in no time i binged ur videos in a week now jezus

[@stevesrt8]

taking viewer advise..brave man lol. I might have to try it also though. cheers

[@amitkeynan922]

Nice work...!

[@FixTronics]

Good job Amazing build quality

[@lairdnelson1861]

You remind so much of this guy I knew in Colorado named Mike (he was a Florida’s dude being a ski bum)

[@compassprecision]

Great video. Will definitely have to go back and watch Part I.

[@pete3897]

Almost 6K now! Doubled in the short time time it's taken me to peruse the back-catalog. Well done :) (ps - that rick roll was pure gold!)

[@cranktowncity]

Thank you!

[@tjohnson4062]

I just found this a few vids ago and ive revised my conclusions,,, he definitely a GENIUS pretending to be an idiot. This channel should blow up, just need a collaboration with a like channel, Tony would be perfect.. Should be a hit... "The force is strong with this one" ....

[@cranktowncity]

Haha I loved reading this progression of comments. Thanks for the support!

[@lifewithmike7]

You vids are healthy as brother. Thanks for playing and putting in the effort. Love watching

[@andreashabijan2514]

I like the american chinese style :D

[@MakingStuff]

Really enjoying this project, keep up the good work!

[@cranktowncity]

Thanks man!

[@billhacks]

This comment is mostly to feed the algorithm. Your builds are awesome. I left you a dinger buddy. I can only subscribe once but I would do it again in an instant if possible.

[@sparrowthenerd]

This is a fantastic project! Although I must say, if you ever have to repair this machine you'll be cursing yourself for welding it together!

[@remic2196]

So what happened to the bandsaw that you modified?

[@LanceThumping]

@4:00, I'm going to spin that around on you. Most people have ONLY seen rusty aluminum before.

[@joelahale]

Love your channel man!! Thanks for keeping it real.

[@Lastig40]

when the 5000 tig welds vid for the 5000 subscribers

[@cranktowncity]

1000 took a whole weekend, I'll get right on it next time i have 10 days off hahaha Seriously though, I'll have to do something similar soon!

[@mastert5566]

absolutely love your content man, keep it up! I can see you blowing up pretty soon with subs :)

[@sommersetcoker5455]

Told yah, seriously get some forward taps. for through hole stuff!

[@geminiman2831]

What is the use of half current and full current? Currently I am using dm542 and nema 17! What pulse per revolution should I choose for nema17? And does more pulse means more speed?

[@chasedowney3358]

This is awesome! Can you make a fiber laser?!?

[@wimbuh1]

Subscribed!

[@josejimenez-pv4zr]

👏👏👏👏🔥🔥

[@ventiladordesuco]

Dude! The thing's looking amazing! Nicely done. By the way, since you're having a third axis on your laser cutter, I'm guessing that you could mount a usb endoscopy camera since they have very long cables and you could focus your frigging laser from the confuser

[@cranktowncity]

Super cool idea! not sure if i can make it work with the setup I'm going for here, but I love the idea!

[@infodeplea9122]

Genio

[@mohametasmadoka5714]

holy shit I ve found a gem (your channel)

[@andylarson6877]

BAHAHAHAAAA , Rick rolled RIGHT from the start

[@The_Hudson_Workshop]

Yo man, when it comes to controlling it: Lightburn, is hands down the best piece of software. Worth every penny. Controller wise, use a GRBLHAL. You get all the speed you need, super fast steppers and no skipping (which I experienced with any other controller[GRBL-LPC was an 8/10). The board phil makes on Tindie is also the best breakout www.tindie.com/products/philba/grblhal-breakout-board-unkit-for-teensy-41/ . If you got this far, it is not recommended to use two steppers to control any axis. If one fails, the gantry can skew and can bounce the laser in a very dangerous way. There is a design like a diff to turn two gear wheels with one stepper. Cheers man, great videos!

[@anuji6647]

I am new I would very much like to build myself a laser cutter Appreciate your help

[@cranktowncity]

Good luck and have fun!

[@xXTepicwinTXx]

Bro how do you do all your filming? I live out in the country and im building a compulsator driven rail gun.... I basically have your sense of humor too and my friends are encouraging me to start youtubing

[@cranktowncity]

Sounds awesome! Do it! I just started with a cheap camera from wal mart, and slowly saved up for better stuff, but I think a lot of people just shoot video on their phones.

[@hammj48]

WD 40 might go a long way to preserve the taps when tapping aluminum

[@collinhaun]

Where are you getting design inspiration for this?

[@rcermelo]

Rick rolled again 🤣

[@julias-shed]

That is pretty sturdy my K40 is so flimsy in comparison 🙄

[@ceroefra]

Hey man! Can you build me one? How much will be the cost?

[@AdjustinThings]

Didnt watch any aluminum tig welding yet eh?

[@cranktowncity]

Hahaha I'm a real believer in the 'good enough' method

[@cameronf1460]

Weed prices man haha

[@RAD_3YA]

dude where the fuck are you when I need my car fixed? x)

[@ThisIsToolman]

Buy your hardware from Atwood’s.

[@Chromevulcan]

I feel like half your channel is breaking traps and running out of argon😅
