I like the part where you used the lathe to sharpen your pencil.

That was my favourite bit too. :D

at my work when our pencil sharpener broke we started joking about using the 2 ton lathe we've got to sharpen them :D

I learned about this channel from Adam Savage at Tested. Im really happy he shouted you out. I learned quite a bit just from this one video. Thank you.

You're one of the few channels that I never delay watching when I get the notification. Don't ever feel like you need to do more. The anticipation sells it. Brilliant work, as always. Thanks!

PhD on vertebrae discs...electric guitar knob that goes up to 11...if your middle name isn't 'spinal' then there's something wrong with the world

Using a lathe as a pencil sharpener must be the most extreme overuse ever

@gerrygoodlow3322 5 ай бұрын

I watched this with my wife nearby and exclaimed "He's using a lathe to sharpen a pencil!?". My wife, who knows almost nothing about machinery, said "that's seems extreme." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The indexable chuck is brilliant. I wish I had one of those.

Great work. That's a knob that Spinal Tap would be proud of!👍🤘

I think machining a groove at the end of the knurling to remove the chip and clean up the end would have worked well to remove the unsightly transition.

@jtaylor8606 4 ай бұрын

Yeah, I thought similar. I guess if you were doing the job a second time, you might even consider machining the chamfer after doing the knurling/shaping operation to avoid that unsightly transition situation altogether.

To dissolve the super glue you can soak the part in Acetone

Fabulous work, although I'm sure someone will point out that you should have used aluminium or bronze, because brass will affect the tone...

There’s an electronics company here in the States called Phenix. They’re located in Accident Maryland. We have a couple of pieces of their equipment in our shop. All the adjustment knobs go up to 11 and I haven’t been able to talk to anybody at the company who has heard of the movie. At this point I’m wondering if it was a joke with the founders and has been lost over time.

Now you need to make the tone knobs and the switch cap. 🙂

I must say, this is unspeakably beautiful. But you really should have included the unnecessary umlauts on the o and u, to make it properly heavy metal.

@paultrimble9390 6 ай бұрын

Yes there it is. this one goes to eleven. Yeah but this one goes to eleven. Hello Chicago,nope basement, hello Chicago , nope outside that's classic. Killer movie. Love spinal tap. Been saying that a lot lately this one goes to eleven. Nobody really knows anymore or at all. It's a shame. Anyway if that's what ur meaning I subbed up over it. Great video to. And mill video I liked it's lot. From ur ole hillbilly buddy stay safe.

Glad that you were able to save some money by making your own knob. Bit disappointed you didn't gold plate it.

@GrowthCurveMarketing 3 ай бұрын

Very nice? May I ask - since the base material was reasonably soft, why not use a compression knurler?

I've been trying to resin 3D print a custom guitar knob, but i can never get the colors correct. The knob isn't white enough, and whenever i paint the embossed text, i end up messaging up the knob... I wish i could commission someone smart like you for this knob...
