Just stumbled on your channel, looks like a lot of interesting videos here👍 First thing I noticed in this video was the Abene mill behind you, made in my home country Sweden😄 Got an older version in my shop! Been clearing 30 cm (about a foot) snow from this last days dump and found your channel while having a coffee break!

[@smalltownmachineshop6860]

Very nice job

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks Adam. Seems you can never have enough tooling.

[@jameswood9764]

Make an adjustable plug stop just change out different length bolts for the chuck bore so you can make heavy cuts and not have to worry about material moving in the chuck?

[@SgtCude59]

Nice work always enjoy making the parts the shop needs ... What s the metal box in the shop for ?? The one where you throw toy for the dog

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

I won't tell you what our temps are today, and for the next 2 weeks. 😁 I'll see how the new thermometer stacks up against the forecast!

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

You are probably in shorts in the afternoon aren't you?

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

@@hilltopmachineworks2131 Yep!

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

@@hilltopmachineworks2131 If it's any consolation, I'm headed for the shop so the work pants are back on. Still in a tee shirt though.

[@daleolson3506]

When you use Fahrenheit it’s always way warmer.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

LOL!

[@alandawson2813]

It’s 28 degrees centigrade here in Kiwi land.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Oh nice. The snow has melted here, but we are expecting a wintery mix this Friday.

[@JamesP_TheShedShop]

Right on 👍🏻

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks James.

[@mr.picklesworth]

-30 C here this morning. I won't even say what it is with the wind chill.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Oh my. Burr! 🥶

[@jkdwayne]

Need to make a Cut , scratching that off with that big lathe is a waste of time.

[@Ideasite]

You need a lathe burnishing tool: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gp6cdqKYe52Nfq8 Also - when the chips are stringy - increase the feed & decrease the speed. Thicken the chip to break it.
