GREAT TOOL AUCTION REVISITED

[@moldering]

I watched it all the way through, and enjoyed it I fondly remember my shop classes and teachers in junior high,mid1960s I had print shop,wood shop, and favorite metal shop all in Seattle I thought at the time I liked wood shop best but I have spent my life working in metal and gemstones as a jeweler thanks for the videos good to see your adorable grandson!

[@mrpete222]

👍👍👍

[@ExCinereForge]

As per usual, I watched every second. One never knows when you're going to drop a pearl of wisdom and I want to pick up as many as I can carry!

[@ericbernard6035]

So very true!

[@larrydeforrest5744]

I'm a 71 year old student. Once a teacher always a teacher. Great vidios.

[@richardhutchinson4016]

That is not a 1 inch standard for the micrometer is is an adapter. You see it is a O-2 mike on the arm. That “standard” clamps on to the anvil so you have a full 0-2 range. That is a neat kit!

[@mrpete222]

Thank you, I did not realize that

[@DavidWilliams-rn6uq]

I was going to say the same thing, you beat me to it. I inherited one of these neat mechanical digital Mititoyo calipers just like that one. It wasn’t zeroing correctly on the digital section, had a bit of an adventure going in and jiggling the little clock works inside to adjust it properly. It’s not my go-to for “precision counts” work, but it is heckuva convenient for a quick measure.

[@stevedavey1343]

Why would anybody not watch the whole thing? Thank you for showing us all these wonderful things from a better vanished time.

[@michaelcoceski5442]

I watched & enjoyed the whole video but the best was seeing a smiling young Henry.

[@4speed3pedals]

Mr Pete, I make effort to watch all your videos and I watch to the end.

[@the56bear]

I watched it all, and would have watched another hour of this video, thank you.

[@richardcorcoran1151]

I watched the whole thing. I love your blog. Keep it up, please. You do not need to apologize for your content. EVER.

[@mrpete222]

I appreciate that!

[@breannaschlaht6501]

Wasn't a dull moment and I enjoyed every minute! Old-timer knowledge is hard to come by nowadays. Thank you for sharing!

[@jamesbonnema1041]

The flat bar with the notch with back plunger was in the picture you showed in catalog page.

[@dougvanallen2212]

Yes Mr Pete we watched the whole thing haven’t missed one yet thanks again

[@jbt68]

Of course, I watched the whole thing! 😊

[@componenx]

That little hand vise IS well made! Sometimes I don't watch the stills at the end, but I always watch all of the main video, regardless of length or subject.

[@paulhunt598]

Enjoyed the repeat and deeper review. When you review the Mitutoyo micrometer, show how to adjust or zero the digital and thimble scales. I purchased a set of Mitutoyo electronic digital micrometers when my eyesight began to fail and I thought that permanent blindness had set in. I couldn't read a rule within 1/8" at that time. The electronic micrometers are beautiful and display to .00005", but they are very clunky. My eyesight recovered after 1+ years and was virtually fully restored within 2 years. The doc said that blocked ducts wouldn't permit accumulated blood to drain from the eyeball. The experience made me very sympathetic to folk that suffer vision loss. I only machined one project after purchasing the micrometers before my eyesight began to improve. I have used the digital height gauge extensively since then, but I don't think that I ever used the digital calipers much. I have gone back to conventional measurement tools, and the electronic tools are saved for another day.

[@mrpete222]

👍👍

[@NBCRGraphicDesign]

Thanks for more of the "behind the scenes" coverage of your last auction action. I think a nifty dial indicator dial could be enlarged to make a handsome shop clock..... Changing the index marks, of course.

[@ellieprice363]

Adam has an enlarged indicator clock on the wall of his shop.

[@joecolanjr.8149]

Loved the video Mr.Pete. I absolutely watched the entire video. Went perfectly with my cup of joe!! Thanks for all of your wisdom...it's very appreciated!!

[@alro2434]

Thanks, never or almost never tedious, same with boring! I'd say taper pins are not dowels, they are for holding pieces together, better strength then a roll/split pin, dowels are straight, sometimes hollow, used for alignment between parts that are bolted together. Better then bolts with a shoulder for doing the same alignment thing.

[@jeffhulett4194]

I watched the whole thing, the micro chuck was a great find.

[@leonardedgarsr2014]

Yep...I watched the whole thing...and I enjoyed it!!!!!!!!!

[@peteengard9966]

All the way to the end. Henry is getting big.

[@LostMountainRestoration]

I always watch until the end. Thanks again.

[@leecarroll1817]

I enjoy your videos as an aging bird, I watch and go check my tool sets. I'm retired and go into my toolroom and reminisce of what was. Yes I have a lot of stuff like you.

[@mrpete222]

That is awesome!

[@thomasbranning1701]

yes the hole vit thank you.

[@57WillysCJ]

I watched all of it. It's class, if you pay attention you can learn something. I come across tools that I don't know what they are. This where I learn.

[@t6tools]

I watched the whole thing

[@renaissanceman7145]

That octagonal handled vise is astonishing! It truly is amazing, as you said, the beauty made into the tool which not only set a maker apart from the rest but shows real pride in what one makes. Nearly $600 for such a tiny chuck, heck that much for any drill chuck, is outrageous. I understand it's a precision tool with (there better be) zero runout (considering how delicate those timy bits are they'd break at the slighteat hint of runout) but DANG (!) nearly $600?! That's insane. I know I have a similar chuck floating around in my shop somewhere. I doubt it's an Abricht (or however it's spelled). If it is I need to store it in the safe don't I? Enjoyable, entertaining and educational as always Mr. Pete. Thank you so much dor continuing to put out videos. Take care of yourself and the Mrs. All the best.

[@ellieprice3396]

I paid $30.27 online for a 1/32-5/8 keyless chuck with MT3 shank.

[@rcurry8531]

Thank you Mr. Pete always watch your videos to the end never know what you might miss.

[@4GSR]

Your Mitutoyo digital mic is out of wack on the digits. The mic thimble shows something like ".121" and the display shows ".0067". Might want to check it out. Thanks for the content, you had my un-divided attention for the whole class today! Ken

[@mrpete222]

Yes, I wonder if I can zero it out

[@ianpendlebury3704]

Thanks for making these videos - both the facts and the opinions(!) are equally fascinating.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@johnthayjr4237]

Thank you for sharing your experiences . It’s really great seeing these tools .

[@lisacarden1309]

Hi MrPete. God Bless! I hope you have a Wonderful Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas with your family and Friends ! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

[@andrewmacomber1638]

Very nice finds! Watched the whole video nostalgic for me as my dad was a machinist and very much appreciated quality tools as do I. ✌🏻❤️🇺🇸🙏🏻

[@Ekanselter]

Mr Pete, I really appreciate how much you enjoy showing and talking about your quality tools. BTW, I especially like the Bronze Jack.

[@2penciLl]

I’ve been looking for this channel for years after watching one video. Happy I’ve finally found it again!

[@mrpete222]

👍👍👍😄

[@larrystrayer8336]

As my usual evening routine I watched to the end. Thanks for for dedication to tools.

Of course I watched the whole thing! I have a handful of federal indicators, some for parts. I have two marked in red like yours. One says "Textile Machine Works" and the other "Aminco". Both have been heavily used and are battered.

[@bigmikex2333]

Definitely a video on tapered reamers! Thank you for the content Mr Pete!

[@RyanWeishalla]

Watched to the end. I could hear the excitement in your voice as you went through most of those items.

[@RyanWeishalla]

P.S., given my issues with close sight, I love the old analog digital micrometers.

[@DDB168]

✋yes a video on those reamers would be good. Great auction haul again ! Yes I watched the whole thing. I liked the smaller octagon hand vise.

[@steveparker8723]

Another great video MrPete. I always watch your videos all the way through. All the best.

[@seanmcalum9238]

Wonderful video, sir. I am fascinated by these tools. I have started learning about precision tools in the past few years from an older gentleman at work. I love the manual tools and older way of doing these things. Thank you for sharing things that can't be learned nowadays!

Lyle, I watched all the way through as usual. 😊Yes please on a video (or two) about taper pins and matching reamers.

[@michaelcerkez3895]

Lyle, Good afternoon. Nice video. Regarding students being "motivated" ah, that is the task of teaching at times to instill it. Take care.

[@jamesolson7366]

Mr Pete, Watched the whole thing. Enjoyed the detail and your comments -- always learn a lot. Never did much machining so always so much to learn. Thanks so much for what you do.

Nice review of the tools. Thanks for sharing.

I have an Albrecht chuck, marked 0-1,5, with an attached handle. I use it along with my other pin vises to drill small holes when I'm making or modifying parts for my (HO) model railroad. I didn't realize it was quite that valuable.

[@davehiggins5903]

I remember seeing wires like that in a tube they were used to braze carbide on a tool.

[@haroldschultz5864]

That tiny hand vise is Neat-O ! Love your channel Mr. Pete.

[@mrpete222]

👍👍

[@michaelmurray3422]

I always watch all, so as not to miss anything. I, as you, also enjoy the look of the older tools and they spent a lot of time making them with a neat design. Even some of the simplest tools were made so nice to look at, you almost hate to use them. I think they respected the tools that were made that way, and thats why they are still around, and in good shape.

[@benkeller3]

I enjoyed this from start to finish!

[@blakewerner4368]

that was a nice video, thank you (that little vise at the end is a real gem!)

[@MrEerwin]

Thanks Mr. Pete. ...enjoyable 'till the end!

[@johncrable3349]

Hi Mr Pete. 👋...I didn't get a good look at those little wires but they appear similar to Dental wires. I found several tubes of various gauges. My wires were all stainless steel (think they used em in braces). I've actually found them quite useful for cleaning small ports on carbs, or oil holes etc. Thanks for sharing and have a happy day 😊 ps..I had to edit....yes I watched the whole thing. No gonhelp Henry find his nickel.

[@Duckfarmer27]

Lyle - Another wonderful video for Saturday morning coffee. That wooden boxed taper reamer set is called a Hand Reamer Set by the US government, per their NSN (National Stock Number) on the label. That's the top 13 digit number. The set was made (or put together) in 1992 by the Houston Cutting Tool company. You can tell that from the CAGE Code (Commercial and Government Entity) which is the alpha numeric next to the date. More useless trivia to add to the coffee on a Saturday morning. LOL. Only those of us who were in the military or a government contractor had to deal with all of that. Just make sure you don't make a mistake on the NSN or you'll be like the guy I knew who had ordered resistors, made a one digit mistake, and got a railway locomotive. Probably a tall tale but a good story because that is how the two numbers checked out. Have a good day.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@grendel1960a]

I watched it right through, stunningly interesting

I worked in a air pollution lab for 44 years and we had sets of those wires in different sizes and used them to unplug gastight syringe needles. They would get plugged when injecting through a rubber septum on occasion. One possible use for them.
