Ends & Odds: DIY Bandsaw Guides & More!

[@jimmydiresta]

Funny I would have cut the guides in brass on the bandsaw and hand held them with my finger tips against the 20” sanding disk burned by fingers and shot the pieces into the future and just said aww Fuck it the one on there ain’t so bad. Hahah I can’t quit you.

[@arbitrarystuff1229]

@Zion Paxton well noticed, noone cares

[@nico.c97]

I watch all of your videos at 0.25 speed, can't miss those details!

[@Bbeaucha88]

Great. I tried doing this and the sound of Tony's slow-mo voice summoned a demon who made me a welding rotatory plate. I don't even own a welder!

[@Alex-hongry]

I just watch them 4 times

[@StefsEngineering]

That is some impressive acting by Keith!

[@FieryWACO]

I miss his museum work. Does he do those any more?

[@StefanGotteswinter]

All the fun - and the fact that nobody under 30 knows Max Headroom - aside, well done on the guides. Glad the thinned down blade worked (if not crashed.. ;) ). Keep us please updated how the cast iron holds up.

[@StefanGotteswinter]

Btw. What about the surface gage project? ;)

[@ThisOldTony]

I don't know what you're talking about. :)

[@dcaonoek]

being an audio tech I always thought Max Headroom was a signal recording reference. I was not surprised to find out how much simpler it was.

[@JamesChurchill]

Hey! I know Max Headr... oh, crap, I'm over 40 *already*?

[@Mad-Duk_Machine_Werkes]

30???!!! I'd say no one under 40 knows him!

I thought the comment section was going to be flooded with galvanic corrosion!

Man, what are you doing here?

[@hughjanus269]

I discovered this channel late in the game.... In short order binge watched every video... Now I truly get upset every day when I see that a new one doesn't post... And then proceed to giggle like a schoolgirl when I see a new one in my suggestion box.... Thanks Tony.

[@WRW87]

*lathe in the game.. sorry I show myself out.

[@MaximBajcik]

FYI: The giggling never stops.

[@me3333]

Out of all the channels I watch TOT's is the one I get the most excited about when I see a new video is out

[@merlinmagnus873]

I was dying when Keith showed up. Your cameo skits are epic. I always learn a lot and laugh myself into a hyperventilating stupor when watching this channel.

[@wkm001]

I watch all the ToT videos at 0.25X, I want them to last as long as possible. These videos are like a glass of fine whiskey, consumed by sipping and never watered down.

[@PiefacePete46]

Must not be done too frequently, lest you become branded "TOTaholic"! :o)

[@gangleweed]

@Evi1M4chine I use cheap whisky in my Multiplaz 3500 plasma welder in place of hard to get isopropyl alcohol now the virus is about.

[@TC-bz9dz]

7:36...i laughed so hard I cried!! this is the best channel on KZbin hands down!! I always leave old Tony videos with a smile on my face and a 6011 on my mind😁... love old Tony!!!

[@MaxMakerChannel]

Hey Tony. I learned how to sharpen drill bits today from your video. That was a long overdue shop project!

[@PiefacePete46]

I hope you didn't learn it from this video... unless I missed something, drill bit sharpening was not on the agenda today! :o)

[@Kashed]

Tony, did you know that when you’re not using the lathe you can chuck up a record in it and use it for background music 🎶

[@zodak9999b]

The only problem is that after that first play, you've got yet another copy of "The Sounds of Silence".

[@theelectricmonk3909]

Try taking a lighter cut? Also, don't use a record with talking on it - waaay too much chatter.

[@martinxXsuto]

i wonder if you could use a TIG torch to read music from bakelite records

[@mitchellspanheimer1803]

Yep all you need to do is put a sewing needle connected to a cone in the tool post and you could play one, as long as you had an auto crossfeed that matched the spiral size.

[@PiefacePete46]

Drain the oil out of it if you want "Heavy Metal".

[@FrenchGuyCooking]

Another great one :)

[@leocurious9919]

Im subscribes to you Alex, but I just noticed I havent seen a video from you for ages. They dont appear in my feed unlike all the other ones. Fucking hell...

Monday morning 4am (local time, Queensland, Australia), ready to milk cows at the dairy and a new TOT vid comes up, oh well, looks like the entire country will have to wait an extra 20mins for their milk today.......

[@Bl4ckw0lf1]

The only type of procrastination that's approved not only by happy California cows, Wisconsin Dairy Association and the Australian Milk Men's (and Sheilas) gathering for liquid nutrition. Remember Tony Tots, drink milk that's only procrastination approved via This Old Tony. It means that the nutrients got thicker for better bones, hair, teeth and that vip of vim and vigor to be the confident big man or woman on campus.

Never plug your tool in to something that has not been configured properly... If in doubt, stick your toll in a vice (vise) :)

[@macf4426]

I loved the caliper/usb gag, I laughed a little too long and hard at that 😀 Got a giggle at the Diff'rent Strokes reference too 😃

I think I never commented on your videos before. I like to make witty comments on videos when possible but you have already made all the witty comments possible. I do have to say you have excellent videos and they are always a great view. Keep on keeping on.

[@ThisOldTony]

thanks ARW!

[@Airn5475]

Some videos you can watch without sound...you are not one of them. The commentary is what brings me back each time!

[@JasonWorksAlot]

Hey Tony, loved video as usual, before Ends & Odds #2 hits the big screen. Wifeyworksalot and myself would like to extend an invitation to you, Mrs. Old Tony, and of course the Tony-Tots. We feel it's unfair that you have us over so often to hang out and watch along it should be our turn to host. But please if you would, leave meatball at home. Im not sure the litter box we have on hand can handle 4130.

[@ToTheTopCrane]

Well played Sir, well played. 👍

[@dalltex]

Nice one Jason. You buy that ring yet? ToT could make you one.

[@JasonWorksAlot]

To The Top Crane this is a legitimate invitation, no playing comrade.

Dall Tex id prefer to ask Tony to make my wedding band lol call me selfish... but I'll just buy hers.

Glue some Neodymium magnets in your doorstep, and he'll never make in if he's not "clean"! (First check with TOT that Meatball hasn't been put on a non-ferrous diet tho') :o)

Your tongue-in-cheek approach is always amusing. Keep up the good work.

In response to your question at 7:02 Why do it right when you can do it twice. Or more!!

[@TheDrumminjay]

Glad to see you collaborating with Keith Rucker. I love watching his channel too. Guys pretty Knowledgeable about steam engines and rebuilding them.

[@ToTheTopCrane]

Yet another fantastic TOT video! I even caught the "Different Strokes" reference in there. "What'chu talk'n 'bout Willis?". I'm guessing Tony and I are pretty close to the same age.

[@me3333]

I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else caught that. Glad to see I wasn't the only one.

[@gamemeister27]

It's a pretty iconic phrase. I'm only 28, but I'm still familiar with it despite never having seen the show.

[@MgBaggg]

It's the little jokes in the edit and script that makes this so much more fun to watch than the competition. Love you Tony

Nothing better than stating your Sunday with a TOT video.

quite happy to stuck around at this one! Tony you become better and better every video. I can't thank you enough for doing this, it is a real highlight for me every time you upload a new video.

[@billsmith5166]

Best Stefan yet. If it flew away at the speed of light, maybe you threw it away a couple of weeks ago. Or.. maybe you'll find it in a couple of weeks, I can't remember which. I'd wear a catcher's mitt around the shop for a while just to be safe.

[@Locane256]

That was excellent. I love the callouts to the other channels, they're so cool to play along!

I think my favorite thing about TOT is that when he jokes about things like putting the piece back in his bandsaw later, you know theres actually a slight chance that he would lol

You underestimate how much I’m willing to watch you make stuff. Great vid man.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Dan Harold - yep, and rarely made of PVC, susceptible to heat distortion. Phenolic resin is popular and more stable.

Not that any sane person would want to do the work. But using the original from my delta 14" bandsaw as a pattern I did a green sand casting in aluminum.

just how loose is a goose? is that metric goose or standard?

[@andycollins3978]

I'd guess metric. Using Ton/Tonne as an example, a standard goose would be spelt Gos

[@raymondmucklow3793]

Depends on the goose, Canadian geese well metric, domestic geese that's determined by your location. Dont forget the blues or grey geese or snow geese. After thought, I guess all geese could be considered trans measure. Side note one of the loudest sounds I've ever heard, a buddy and I were out doing some goose hunting and we had a group of about 5,000 geese come in right on top of us it took them an hour to land, anyway we were laying 10 feet apart from each other and we couldn't yell loud enough to say when. it was deafening. Then some idiot driving around in a truck drove by fired at a stray goose and just like that they were gone we arrived at 4am to set up, it was 5pm ben there all day waiting. Dump ass skyblaster. He wasnt even close enough to hit it.

[@me3333]

My question is how loose does the goose have to be before you need to check it with a standard? Side note where does one purchase metric goose standards? Asking for a friend...

[@macf4426]

me3333 Grab a copy of the Engineers Handbook and have a gander 😀

[@codprawn]

Those Startrite bandsaws are the best ever made. I have one identical to yours only mine is the 24" model. With the blade setup just right and using the fence along with a vice I can get cuts parallel to within a ten thousands of an inch! That is milling machine accuracy! I am going to make up some of the plastic inserts now so this video is great. Problem is in the UK all our nylon sheet it metric now - you can only buy it in 8mm or 10mm. I need 9mm - very annoying.
