Monday Night Meatloaf 151

[@rgreen93021]

Pretty much watched all 611 over the years Tom. Def some gems if not most of them. Thank you.

[@guytech7310]

The videos most rememberable to me were the pranks on Adam Booth. Loved the precision measuring tool: "Stare-At-It"

[@Smallathe]

Hi... Just realized no video in a long time! I hope all's well - and Merry Christmas! Please send a word... looking forward for more 2024 meatloafs... :)

[@sharkrivermachine]

I was a Central tool dealer when I was in the automotive business. The micrometer is an automotive crankshaft mike. As you said it is sized for connecting rod journals and most mains. I had them and used them extensively for grinding crankshafts, On a rare occasion I would have to break out the 2-3 for some of the larger shafts. Thanks for sharing.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Steve. I figured as much. Thanks for the comment and confirmation. Cheers, Tom

[@UngaBunga-nr7sb]

Hi Tom, thanks for contributing these videos. I've learnt so much from you. Downloaded everything, some real gems in your older videos. Keep up the great work, cant wait to see more on the Etching Press.

[@EVguru]

Hi Tom, it's been great to see you producing content again. On the subject of Japanese case screws, the reason that people struggled with them is that they were not Philips, or Posidirve, but JIS (Japanese Industrial System) instead. I used to have a set of JIS impact bits just for the purpose.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Paul. Good point. Those old school impact drivers sure seemed to take care of them. They must of put some super samurai thread locker on them as well. All the best, Tom

[@EVguru]

@@oxtoolco I don't recall seeing threadlock very often. They tended to use long slender fasteners with a lot of tension in them. They also used stronger alloys for their castings, but with less corrosion resistance. On engines that have stood outside for long periods, I've often found it easier to remove the heads of the fasteners to dismantle the engine, then deal with the stuck threads afterwards.

[@Dreddip]

If you want to have some fun with stuck Phillip's and torque-set fasteners, we have two Lear 31s we're scrapping. You're welcome to come have all the fun you want with'em. I can show you a few of the tool we use to deal with those fasteners in aviation.

[@TheLoxxxton]

Ok where everybody go?

[@dagwood1327]

Whenever I find a channel like yours I frequently binge watch their whole catalog. You have fantastic content, lighting and sound. When you have a dry spell caused by various reasons like moving shops I will go back and re-watch your content.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey David. Thanks for the support and viewership. Cheers, Tom

[@robcranny1464]

I’ve been through all the videos and rewatched quite a few. They are a valuable resource for newbies, wannabes (like myself) and anyone who wants to get a perspective on a given topic. I love new content but we need to preserve all of this for future viewers as new people discover the channel. Thanks, Tom for your willingness to teach and spend your time passing along your knowledge. We appreciate it.

[@Bilamac]

327 Chevy main bearing journals are 2.030 and connecting rods are 2.0. Common undersizes for reconditioned crankshafts are - .010 - .020 so that would be the perfect mike for an engine builder.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Bil. Thanks for the comment and confirmation. Cheers, Tom

[@arimadx]

Hope you're doing ok tom. It's been a while since we've heard from ya

[@karlh6700]

One of the reasons we buggered up case screws is that Japanese PHILLIPS were not, they were JIS

[@wrstew1272]

You beat me to it, now Mr. Tool has to go back and get the correct screwstick for Japanese motorcycles. And….he said “ some of the screws “ not! Every one that I ever encountered was put in by a Gorilla. Everyone that I knew had that mandatory crappy tin box hidden in the back of the tool box. They were like six to ten bucks unless you hit the Overpriced Tool Guy what came to the shops.

[@billmoran3219]

The six to ten dollar one I had bought in 1980 I still have and use has lasted for decades!

I live in Japan and I love Vessel screwdrivers. I used to like Snap-on but now I would take Vessel any day. Super precision fit, well hardened so they never get bunged up by a difficult screw, and super comfortable in the hand.

Hey Hank. I'm going to agree with you on the Vessels. They seem extremely well made. Better than some of the other top brands I have. Cheers, Tom

[@andyZ3500s]

@@oxtoolco It was nice to meet you also, I have learned alot from you over the years. I was happy to see the Yuasa indexer all fixed up. Machining the sides for vice mounting was a good idea. Setting it up with a adjustable chuck is also a winner. Good luck on getting settled up here. Lots of luck Andy.

[@MrShobar]

That Central micrometer was configured for use in measuring automotive crankshaft journal diameters. One shortcoming of that screwdriver is that the tip is not replaceable. The "old" percussive impact tools you refer to had multiple tips, and you could even use them to loosen small cap screws. On the plus side, the merchandiser named after a lengthly Brazilian river only wants about $13.50 for it. I've watched at least half of your videos. Many thanks, Tom.

[@billdoodson4232]

The "drawer bolts" are designed for pulling kitchen worktops together. In the UK they would probably be called Worktop Zipbolts.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Bill. Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Tom

[@RambozoClown]

Those Vessel are also JIS form, slightly different than Philips and just what is needed for Japanese motorcycles.

[@vitesseguy]

That's the key. It actually fits correctly into Japanese "Phillips" head fasteners.

[@mm9773]

But this one clearly says "PH2” - that’s Phillips. Very sneaky.

[@RambozoClown]

@@mm9773 Last time I checked they are all JIS but are labeled for both, since you can use a JIS in a Philips, but not the other way around.

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Bozo. Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Tom

[@joell439]

Tom, fantastic stories about great people and new tools. I too discovered the Vessel screwdrivers a couple years ago and instantly loved how well the JIS crosspoint engages every 'phillips' head near it. Haven't slipped out (cammed out) once since. I must confess I've seen all 600+ videos you have uploaded. Several of them more than once as I'm a slow learner 😂. All the best to you.

For us that do fall back to rewatch yours & other creators older content, here's one for you, that I wached just an hour ago. 2016 "Machinist Apprentist box (Long format) ! Why? because my interest to learn more about the history of The Kennedy Co. & the differant models by year. When you did that video 7yrs back, I was still paying machine shops for their services.Wasn't till 2019 that I bought my first Lathe.(SB 9 jr). Any who, July 5th I a date with a young man south of me that posted Machinist Tools on FB MP.. Yes, went for a Blake coaxial, but Starrett & B&S said they needed a good home too :-). Wasn't till I saw Randy's last video that showed his Kennedy 256 that I realisted, Damn, "I have the same box"! My first one, now Iam hooked! Pop in and see how this old 70yr + 4 yr Apprentist did organizing his tool boxes. I may never be a true machist, but damn I love finding and collecting good tools! Bear in Tx.

[@componenx]

Those draw saws are great, but they so sharp that I've cut myself a few times and didn't realize it until the wood started turning red....

[@oxtoolco]

Hey Weasel. Got to say I love Hida tool. It's just one of those unique one of kind places. There used to be another good one in Alameda but they closed down. Can't think of the name right this second. Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Tom

[@jimurrata6785]

Those drawbolts were very common for mitered formica counters back in the day.

That's a crankshaft micrometer. If you look, the readings might be on the opposite side of the anvil so you can see them when it's on a journal. My crankshaft mic is Starrett, and they still offer them in multiple sizes.

Re the old videos. The only options to sort out your video page are now most recent and most popular. Sorting by oldest used to be an option and made it easier to start at the beginning.

[@Dans-hobbies]

@tom I don't know if you know about it or not, but when it comes time to square up a cross-cut sled or miter gauge, you want to use the '5 cut method'. I won't go into details because their are millions of pages on the internet about it, but it's basically using compounding error to your advantage.

Is there any chance you would be willing to make a video on that? I'm struggling, and I can't find any good information online. I have a feeling that you could explain the application of these perfectly! Thanks, Robert

Love all the videos Tom. I think the first ones I watched were "Man vs Washing Machine Round 1" and "Man vs Washing Machine 2".
