[@felipeherrerias]

Anyone interested, here’s the video where Adam mentioned Joe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ome9g3d5fJaNeqM

[@joepie221]

It was very unexpected, and I am humbled. I greatly admire his skills.

[@felipeherrerias]

@@joepie221 I admire both you and him, and it's great to see your mutual appreciation as well!

[@edwardhugus2772]

Thanks for the link, I was looking earlier and didn't see it!

[@ngauge22]

You were right at the top of his list. That alone is fantastic. Great achievement.

[@joepie221]

Once was flattering beyond words, he just knocked me off my chair. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6C7f4anqrOmmLs

[@TomokosEnterprize]

Well sir. I rarely see a post that brings me a tear of happiness and this is absolutely one that makes a tear of joy. It is just bloody beautiful. Seeing it drill a hole in any medium will be a real treat my friend.

[@joepie221]

Glad you enjoyed it! Stand by on that request.

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@joepie221 Since you replied I revisited again as I normally do. There are always tid-bits I miss here and there. Standing by bud.

[@jameslezak8179]

Great drill press videos of the build! Jigs an fixtures! Make them for tiny to large applications! Labeled and stored (if you have room) can be modified or reviewed for other projects! Thanks Joe! Nothing will be lost with all these videos in your library! Vast amounts of knowledge and tips emerging from your shop and white board! Thanks for all your time and sharing! 👍😎

[@lucasandri5462]

The final product is amazing in all its details. Now we want to see the steam engine powering the drill press. With a flat belt.

[@toolbox-gua]

Watching your craft and end product is just a Christmas Present, every episode.

[@joepie221]

Very kind of you.

[@williammills5111]

Joe - This build and the ones that preceded it have been a gold mine of fixturing and techniques. I am ashamed to admit that at first I was thinking, why is he bothering with this? Oh brother, am I ever glad that you took the time not only to build them to the level of perfection that you did, but to film, edit and EXPLAIN exactly what and why you were doing. My hat’s off to you- many, many thanks and may all good things come to you in the new year! Best regards and deep respect- Bill

[@MattysWorkshop]

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful

[@paolonoal9950]

You are an unbelievably great machinist and teacher! Cheers from Italy!

[@joepie221]

Thank you very much. I hope to visit Italy someday.

[@Preso58]

Bravo Mr. Pi. The tray of jigs and fixtures said it all. There's always a lot going on behind the scenes.

[@joepie221]

Thanks Mark. I should have someone filming me filming the work. Behind the scenes is very busy.

[@IslandHermit]

Fun seeing all the fixtures at the end.

[@BigMikesGarage]

Bravo! Your attention to detail created a work of art.

[@joepie221]

Thank you very much! I'm pleased as well.

[@johnvaluk1401]

Nice way to finish 2021 Joe. The model is just amazing! One thing though, forgot to make the knock out wedge to remove the tapered drill. Hope you have a great new year and look forward to your next project.

[@_f355]

a thing of beauty is a joy forever!

[@joepie221]

Agreed.

[@williamking8552]

Absolutely beautiful, real craftsman at work, have enjoyed watching it grow.

[@thatoldbob7956]

Joe, as one of your first subscriber I congratulate you on making the model of a drill press on which I used to work 82 year ago in my grandfather’s shop. Now I am 96, still working a bit every day.. Thanks for showing this. As a lasting memory the open spindle tore out a 2 inch diameter area hair from my small. Love your videos.

[@joepie221]

Many thanks for your long time support and positive comments. I've always been curious about what type of motorcycle that is in the avatar. Stay well.

[@christopher.m.estelow]

It looks amazing Joe.... great job! Now I wanna see it run and drill a hole?!

[@MartinHubbard1]

The coolest thing I have watched in a very long time here on YT. Micro machining at its very best, well done Sir.

[@CarlosMendoza-ou8kf]

Maestro !!!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@geoffrobinson5584]

Very nice model and an excellent series of videos. Thanks Joe

[@mikeburston9427]

Nice work Joe. Now you just need the tee bolts for the vice, the drift for removing the drill and a jacobs chuck

[@BedsitBob]

The machine is a bit old for a Jacobs chuck.

[@Melvinnn11]

Joe.... you're a master. Well done.

[@DonDegidio]

Hi Joe, My hats off for another awesome build. I agree with the comment it is museum quality. They all are. Are you planning to complete the entire set? You and the family stay safe.

[@robertridgeway4727]

Your work on these model machines is the "bee's knees," or as an old boss of mine often remarked, they are "slicker than thin sh*t through a tin horn!" I never fail to be impressed by your enthusiasm and attention to even the smallest detail. Happy New Year.

[@joepie221]

I think its the attention to the smallest detail that can make the biggest difference. It sometimes feels like a waste of time at that moment, but its all worth it in the end. Happy New Year to you too.

[@timmer9lives]

Just beautiful; I’m pretty speechless.

[@joepie221]

It may be my favorite of the lot for looks.

[@timmer9lives]

It’s a very cool drill. I always loved camelback drills. But in all honesty, I’m speechless from seeing your incredible skill level. You never stop surprising me Joe. I’m just blown away when I saw you boring the taper. I could go on and on. But when I watch your videos, I come to the realization that I’m an absolute hack. But hell… I’m a happy hack. 🤨. It’s all good.

[@JasonTHutchinson]

It belongs in a museum. Nice work!

[@cdrive5757]

Joe, Thanks for depressing me more than I already was. I'm going through late years blues,.. not being able to do the things I loved to do. Before watching this I was able to shrug my shoulders and say I was once exceptional in my day with a broad range of uncommon skills. Now I see I was and am quite ordinary and unexceptional. You sir will never have to admit that! That pillar drill model belongs in a museum and you deserve the highest respect of the machinist community ! Wakodahatchee Chris

[@joepie221]

Thank you Chris. It would be quite satisfying to have my mini shop end up in a museum. That would be full circle for me.

[@mith5168]

No need to “unloosen”… Joe is always one step ahead. Great Build!

[@joepie221]

Many thanks.

[@mech023]

now you need to build the machine shop diorama and use your steam engine to run it. Happy New Year

[@BrianEltherington]

Absolutely incredible! Another machine the size and beauty of a piece of fine jewelry. Thank you for sharing this journey with us Joe.

[@joepie221]

My pleasure.

[@darkhorsegarage9623]

When this series is over you need to think of a part. A single part that requires all the tools the finish. Maybe a bottle opener or something. This is so much fun to watch.

[@mkeyser]

Joe, I think you're going to have to talk to Keith about putting a steam plant together to power your miniature workshop pretty soon here.

[@joepie221]

I'll run my steam engine on air. Its much cleaner.

[@rtkville]

Great work Joe. You're the man. Thanks for taking the time and efforts to make these wonderful videos!

[@joepie221]

My pleasure!

[@rchristie5401]

A thing of beauty, Joe, Well done. Thank you

[@donaldvincent]

I guess you could use this to start a SMALL business.

[@petermcneill80]

Absolutely outstanding mate!

[@joepie221]

Much appreciated.

[@bradyoung6663]

It looks great, and was well worth the wait. Making the vise before finishing it was a good call. It really adds to it.

[@joepie221]

Thank you.

Hi Chuck. Great to hear from you. You sir are a craftsman I will always look up to. Thanks for that.

[@josephcitizen4195]

I liked the shot w/ all the pieces. I had no idea how 'big' the drill press was compared to the other pieces. I love series. Keep it up!

[@joepie221]

Its a very tall model for its scale.

[@8867348]

That is some fine work right there.

[@stumccabe]

Hard to make even more comments as each stage has been so great to watch and I made remarks each time. However, seeing now the completed work it is simply breath taking Joe... quite definitely a thing of beauty. You must (should) be justifiable very proud and now your miniature equipment collection has grown even more. Great work. :) Thanks Joe - all best for 2022.

[@tombellus8986]

That was the first machine that I ever ran as an apprentice machinist in 1963. Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for a great video series and what a great job you did. I'm sure you had a few libations each night.

[@E30srule]

Like all your other builds, just mind blowing work, but this one is by far the most beautiful looking machine. What we need to see was a camera on you to see the big grin you would have had, with it working. We all wait with baited breath to see what's the next project. Very best wishes to you, your family and all your eager followers for the new year.

[@joepie221]

I agree. The mini machines are all great to look at for what they are, but the designers of this machine knocked it out of the park. The combination of art and design is well represented on this one.

Thanks. A good jig can really help.

[@inspector1794]

That was a joy to watch. Another gorgeous piece. I couldn't see how you could do the taper on such a small part. Thanks for showing us how it was done.

[@kennethnevel3263]

Great job Joe. Now you have the small machines to start making watches . Smallest hole I ever drilled was .019 in a clock gear shaft for a bearing pin repair , did that job on a 100 + year old 14" X 36" engine lathe , was very difficult holding such small things and not breaking the drill. Pressed a piece of a straight pin in the shaft and cut off to length ( sewing pin) . The clock keep perfect time after adjustment. Good finish for the year . Now is time to think of what is next for 22. Happy New Year.
