Aside from loving watching your show made Tooling. I eagerly look forward to Staying up Late to see your video at 2am EST. Here in the states

Does the Radius remove a possible failure point with the transition of the diameter differences ?

Greetings from 28 degrees north and. The other Sunshine State, freaking cold here, raining for a week and down to 33 f…almost 0 C….best wishes to my fav Oz gang, Paulie ❤

[@dkhan4180]

Great seeing Curtis and Giggler put together a no nonsense product, always interesting, no long winded voiceovers and always practical. CEE are just down the hi way from me, hoping for studio audience format😊😊

[@mapo5976]

Kurtis' talent is immense. Thats why this channel is so successful. You know youre in for a treat no matter what.

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

thanks for the kind words mate appreciate it

[@wez12a]

Australian standards ftw

[@bobgleaser7106]

Some of this stuff with the lathe set up and work should be seen in EVERY high school machine shop. Priceless education.

[@davepoul8483]

It used to be .. when i was at school we had 2 metal worshops with 5 big laths in each.... now its all media studys on how to show you boobs of with the best lighting...

[@rovert1284]

The photography is worth a million views. Well done to Karen. Brilliant skills all round.

[@darrellhendrix5502]

"Couldn't find the tool i was looking for so decided to make my own". That statement sums up the reason i am up at 2am local time to tune in to the latest video from CEE. As always thanks for sharing.

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

You're the best! Always appreciate your support!

[@SsgtStretch]

1 am for me

[@jbonegw]

Agreed. I know it’s literally what a machinist does but it never ceases to impress me

[@matthewmoilanen787]

I didn't know how you avoid the 30 unnecessary step to assure accuracy set up people but man is it refreshing. You do what you do as efficiently as possible with no wasted time and fuss! Thanks again for another cool look into how a guy with a need just takes care of business. Oh and a dog with his chicken is a wonderful thing.

[@utGort]

I like the way they ship 4140 solid bar to you marked fragile.

[@billdoodson4232]

I suspect it's because it's ground bar. You don't want dints in it.

[@LurkeSkywalker]

@@billdoodson4232 Yeah, that's the case. But than again, if three solid bars of 4140 are fagile than everything is fragile.

[@hrenes]

I suspect it might break your arm...

[@Woodie-xq1ew]

That’s actually for the delivery guys toes 😂

[@SirWhiteRabbit-gr5so]

You'd be amazed at the inspired damages the temporary delivery drivers can create.

[@EuphoricBloodLust]

"For most jobs, the tooling is good... for exceptional others, it can be better... can't find anything better so let's make better" I will never not love that attitude. Homeless' one-pooch-band with the happy grunts and tail wagging percussion was an adorable touch too

[@jyvben1520]

Ozzie shop made tools day , split screen reminds me of old tv series Mannix, vid ends on "here is one i made earlier"

[@greenshortscouk]

Karens's cinematography is perfect for the subject. The multi-angle views, split screens, slow mo etc. are all just so good. I don't know if you have additional lighting, but it's certainly not dull and dingy :)

[@vincemck2002]

As usual a beautiful looking tool custom made....Kurtis is an artist...."better than a bought one mate"

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Appreciate that, it's always satisfying making something that works just as good as or better than what's available in the shops.

[@theoldstationhand]

Good one. I made extensions, but just with male and female threads, saved the taper turning. Cheers.

[@bchdsailor]

Homey still a puppy, Curtis shows his impressing skills, Karen is really a professional videographer, Bloopers makes you watch the whole video to the end

[@ronnydowdy7432]

Nothing like making your own tools and saving money at the same time. I have always loved making tools for the machine shop. Good job Kurtis. You're a very good machinist and a master mechanic. I believe you can make just about anything you put your mind to do. I enjoyed the show very much.

[@joekanicki5306]

Sooo much talent in that shop! Never cease to be amazed at Kurtis skills and Karen videography. Homey even impressed with his bed trick. Cheers from Texas!

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Appreciate the love from Texas - Glad you're enjoying the show!

[@tonysmith7283]

Probably the best video coverage from this channel to date … multiple perspectives building the very picture of competency ! 😊

[@AquaFlowPlumbingCo]

Fuckin love Kurtis and his determination to complete a task. And Karen for her cinematography skills. These two are a match made in heaven. Let us not forget Homie.

[@frankiejh7510]

“Decided to make my own”. Love it!!

[@robertrawlings]

Well done Kurtis and Karen, in my workshop I'm always making new tooling due to the fact they are so expensive to buy and I get the enjoyment of making them . 😊

[@G.Orwell1984-q8i]

Kurtis is such an impressive machinist and fabricator. The guy is worth his weight in gold, which is why he has his own business and a beautiful, talented and funny wife. ❤ I’m humbled by the speed he gets work done. As a hobby machinist, I can relate to the difficulty of the work he does. I would take so much longer and in the end, my quality would not be as good. 😂

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Thanks, we appreciate the kind words and support!

[@ashesman1]

Geeze that threading towards a shoulder makes my arse pucker on every pass. God you have good reactions. I think you are about the only machinist on KZbin that can get a carbide insert to work like it’s meant to!

[@The_HomeHandyman]

Great video once again. You know now that other shops are going to want you to make those for them as well.

[@Gary-V16]

'Fragile' Your supplier has a sense of humour, or the postal service is crap. Great, no nonsense, no drama, 1st class production. Thanks guys.

[@johnoconnor4941]

Replacing eye's is like having a cuppa. Happens all the time, nice.. Working on pins or dozer skin replacements, that's more your night out, not every night. But the shop made tools, that, THAT is like packing for a three week holiday to that place you only saw on Telly, where everything is laid on and you can go skiing in the morning before sunbathing in the afternoon....deffo my fav channel.

[@ИгорьДедов-к5ж]

Kurtis, thanks so much for the video!! Also thanks to Karen for a great shoot!!!

[@AW-Services]

Most probably, the best example of human CNC right before your eyes. Brilliant job

[@willpeters12]

Love friday mornings in england, always get to work early to make sure i can watch the newest video with a brew before i start, easily one of my favourite channels on youtube.......when do we get to see you teach karen how to do something though 😅

Could watch Kurtis make shop made tools non-stop, it's just so deeply satisfying watching some say yeah so the catalogue says that the solution to my problem doesn't exist. Enter Kurtis who says, "here, hold my beer and watch this".

[@mongolike513]

Awww guys you’ve gone and done it again! Wishing you coolness.

[@bobbolieu9013]

Another example of the caliber of talent that Kurtis has mastered, in that he can manufacture his own tools. It's true that any capable person can manufacture tools. To accomplish that with the efficiency, accuracy and capabilities that Kurtis possess is amazing to not only watch, yet also to understand and appreciate is entertaining. The topper of it all, the humbleness that Kurtis lives is what makes it fun, especially when Karen is there to capture it all for us to see speaks to her talent as well.

Have been a long time subscriber to CEE and more recently HAL Heavy Duty and what is so great to watch is the completely no nonsense, frills or overly dramatic sound tracks to your videos, just the ‘this is how we do it’ approach, coupled with the amusing human touches showing the antics that both Homie and the yard hounds of HHD get up to……phew that was a long sentence ! As with just about every commenter each new video from you guys is eagerly awaited every week, thanks 👌🤘

You can also have an attachment at the back of the lathe to move the entire cross-slide for making longer taper and with power feeds
