I am an 82 year old here in the U.K. and have been model engineering all my adult life but I am not ashamed to say I learn something from every one of your videos. Thank you very much. I wonder if you have the time could you make a video with a brief technical biography, I am certain it would be interesting. Thank you again

That _would_ be interesting. Great Idea Trevor.

[@joepie221]

Thanks for the compliment and support.

[@AricScooby]

Awesome addition to the kit, Joe. Great job as always. Your tip about the adjustable parallels reminded me of the gent who introduced me to sheet metal. There was a part I couldn't produce because of limitations to the stroke/throat of the ram. As he moved the bottom bolster to the side, and re-installed the bottom die, he commented "If you can't raise the bridge, lower the river." Experience is worth gold, thanks for sharing yours 👍

I need one now.

[@cameronmccreary4758]

That's the way I also locate the rotary table, by checking to the spindle. Excellent technique! I keep watching and it doesn't get much better than that. As an aside, I've made plenty of miniature wrenches in my day. Heck, you can't buy the wrench you need these days and even if you can, much of the time the tolerances are out of spec.. I'm doing a set of miniature wrenches these days also. I am making these out of A2 tool steel; hard material but worth it.

[@brucewilliams6292]

Making the hex with the broach was cool. Thank you for your generosity in making and sharing these videos. The use of the adjustable parallel is genius!

Where were you and your machine tooling skills in '96 when I NEEDED YOU! I got jammed up because I didn't have a teeny tiny novelty sized wrench like that! I had to use my Sikorsky Golden Wrench Award pin!!!! Cheap pot metal does NOT make good wrenches! and I lost that pin forever ...but at least I got the connector taken off and put back on again. Still could have used one of those.

Amazing! Love it! And the careful planning of the order of operations here is a great illustration of why, as a hobbyist, I've taken to stopping, and thinking "now, how would Joe approach this?". I learn lots of really useful tricks and techniques from you, but most of all, I learn about how to think ahead, and plan the work. Thank you for that!

If the chip exceeds the grip, you can bet the part is gonna slip! -Joe P

[@richardcranium5839]

sounds like a fart with a lump in it lol

[@hackish1]

I like that little piece of advice I was wondering if it scales to larger parts? For example a 1/2" grip on a 3" part taking a 1.5" doc. Now I'm a bit afraid to run it!

[@Open_Eyes_Open_Heart]

@@hackish1 I always advocate for as much surface contact as I can get on my material/part.. then it's more about stick out (rigidity) half inch bite sounds fine for most vice applications for chuck applications that should be okay unless your diameter is bigger than say 6 inches. I try to use the 1:4/1:5 ratios for material sticking out vs material size or diameter without special support or tail stock
