[@dillardhayes3612]

Great video I am one of these tradesmen that are slowly disappearing. Served an apprenticeship thru the US Dept of Labor and became a Journeyman in 1995. I wasn't smart enough to be a Woodpecker and instead became a Metal Patternmaker, so I really enjoy watching these wood videos. Thank you for all the time you put into making these videos.

[@jamesstanlake4064]

As a retired life long "wood butcher" and a fairly advanced woodturner I find it rather entertaining watching a machinist go about wood turning. I could tell you several different ways of holding the wood (we even use concentric chucks now, something we borrowed from you machinists). It may be hard to belive but we wood butchers even try and maintain a certain degree of accuracy in our work. Excuse my teasing and keep up you good work!

[@JoelHudson]

Lyle I applaud your solution to drilling a centered hole. Simple & Elegant!

[@roylucas1027]

Mr. Pete. Great video. Not into casting, but I do appreciate the work that goes into making a pattern. Stay well and keep those videos coming.

[@junglejammer1]

Most enjoyable, Mr. Pete. Patternmaking is how I found your channel in the first place, many years ago.

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

That whole Jed Clampett process was very interesting!

Thanks for your time and effort in making these KZbin videos Lyle, a whole lot of people enjoy watching what you teach on the interweb, doobley doo! Cheers, Paul.

[@joeandrews3105]

Hi Mr.Pete, I've been learning the hobby machine art since 2007. One thing always leads to another, so casting is the next quest in my learning curve. I have picked up many tricks and just wanted to chime in to say thank you ! for your many videos and the guidance you have given over the years.

[@roleic7246]

Never would want to miss one of your pattern or mold making videos. I especially liked the one with the hand made parting line around a propeller I think it was. And the mould with a plate in between drag and scope. Those one can not easily find elsewhere. Thanks for all of them.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching.

[@drbahb1]

Thank you for taking the time to edit and produce your excellent videos. I check in every morning to see if there is a new one. I enjoy your channel very much; it is my favorite.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching.

[@MrShobar]

We've waited a long time for more casting videos. It was worth the wait. Fine work and solid teaching, as usual. Many thanks.

[@johnstrange6799]

I love casting videos, and can't wait for parts 2 and 3. Thank you for all of your efforts.

[@one4stevo]

Great video i enjoyed watching look forward to part 2

[@thefixerman1]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video and looking forward to the following ones in the series. Thank you for putting so much time of your time and skills into this series for our benefit.

[@elcheapo5302]

Thanks Mr Pete. I think your long videos are your best videos.

[@EmmaRitson]

should be a great series! enjoyed watching that, thankyou!

[@myronmarcotte7072]

Thanks mr pete for making another foundry video. Some of my favorites.

[@noakeswalker]

Pattern making always good to watch ...it's not something I and many of your viewers are ever going to actually do, but as machinists we might pick up some ideas...thankyou.

[@350munrohome]

Good stuff Mr Pete, keep it up and dont wear yourself out for us. Loved the tractor pulling stuff.

[@MrUbiquitousTech]

Great video Mr. Pete! I enjoy your pattern making/foundry videos very much; I've learned a lot from them. Off to watch #397 now.

[@garyhall867]

No doubt Mr Pete your a very clever man. I Praise God for your Talents and sharing them.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@fall22123]

Watching you work with wood reminds me of Norm Abram on the New Yankee Workshop. I wish that show was still on the air, at least to show re-runs. This was a great video. I look forward to watching the rest of them.

[@MyHeap]

Great Video Mr. Pete. I am truly grateful for all the videos you share with us. Joe

[@rustymachineshop9456]

Thanks mr pete for ur time making the videos ur the best on you tube at machine shop

Not sure that I will ever do any casting, but seeing ti process is very interesting. Thanks for taking the time to show this.

[@davida1hiwaaynet]

Excellent! Thank you for sharing this. I enjoy seeing your pattern making projects. I just got a new DSL internet and can now watch in HD. Very cool to see things up close.

[@OleGramps53]

I was told by my grandfather who was an experimental lab machinist for Bendix Corporation aeronautics and brake division that you should never turn wood on the metal lathe, but I understand why he said it sense I am a woodturner as well. But that being said I also like the way the metal lathe allows you to duplicate your cuts on many pieces. As you pointed out you need to use the vacuum to keep the wood fibers cleaned up more so than metal chips only to protect your oil supply on the metal lathe and ways on the bed. I'm looking for a metal lathe for myself and being born and raised in South Bend I believe you know what brand I'm favoring 😎 . I enjoy you shop classes a lot they bring me back home every time I watch them!

[@markfryer9880]

Michael Reed, Your Grandfather would turn in his grave if he could see the way the boys mistreat the poor old Myford lathe in Design Tech at the school I work at. Not really deliberate, its just that they don't get a proper instructional course on using a metal lathe for metal, plastics or wood. Must talk to the DT teacher about what lathes will be going into the new building.

[@bryonrykard1560]

You make things like I make things. I a little over engineered but they come out like I like them in the end. Keep up the good work.

[@markfryer9880]

Another excellent instructional video, Mr Pete

[@petek210]

After all the toothbrushes, towels, and kitchen gadgets you have sneaked out to your shop Mrs. Pete still makes you cinnamon buns? The woman is a saint.;)

As always an Awesome video Sir. Please remember we truely Appreciate You, Your Talent and Dedication. Thank You once again.

[@danbreyfogle8486]

I'll meet you over in 397, I would miss a moment of this. It is interesting to see wood turned on a metal lathe.

[@milantrcka121]

Mr. Pete, would you please expound on the advantages of or reasons for making a split pattern for a plane-symmetrical part? Thank you very much for being our Shop Master Teacher!

[@AmateurRedneckWorkshop]

Thanks for another great video.

[@stevelecain886]

I have always been interested in making some castings but didn't have a clue where to start, at 61 yrs/old I wonder if its worth it then again I now have the patience and appreciation for it and the work and attention to detail it takes,,, hence it may be the perfect time to get into it.thanks for the inspiration.

[@mrpete222]

👍👍

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Coming out nice. I have done my share of wood turning on the the metal lathe.

[@daveticehurst4191]

Lyle, great video as always. I suspect that you did this exercise to show pattern making and casting, but t is sure a lot of work just to make rammer. There is no guarantee that the casting will come out the first time. Especially as perhaps you are only making one of these. Would have been quicker and less work to just have turned it from a bit of 3 inch diameter Aluminium bar. Anyway have had my say, looking forward to the other two episodes.

[@1DIYGuy]

my glue container is a scrap piece of wood with a 3/4 inch deep x 1 1/4 diameter hole with a foster bit. The block stays in place yet easy to move without spilling also holds the wet brush keeping the mess off everything else. Left over excess glue hardens and just add new glue until the hole is filled then drill a new hole to continue. Thank you for all you share

[@MrGoosePit]

This is great. I got the popcorn out and an ice cold beverage...

[@Zrambo49]

Enjoy your videos very much

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching.

THANK YOU...for sharing.

[@randomdude1786]

always good to see some casting stuff soon as I get money and space where the neighbors wont call the police I'm gonna get the whole set up with leathers and all aluminum and iron, iron is the real goal for me so patern problems and avoiding them

Hi Andy!

[@pikadroo]

In the resizing of the traced image it would have been neat to show the use of a pantograph. Perhaps in a future video? :)

[@michaelcerkez3895]

I couldn't wait until you mentioned it but did you get pictures/videos of the night pull????

[@performancepursuit]

Mr Pete, I feel like your teasing us, when do we get the video explaining why the overhead projector didn't work? I'd have thought the same thing

[@tek4]

What is a burnisher and how is it used. I am sorry but I don't know, however I do want to know so I maybe could teach my young boys what this new tool is (New to us) Live the videos mr.pete

[@uberintj]

The burnisher is a hard steel rod used to roll the hook on the edge of the scraper. The hook is produced by holding the scraper in a vise with the edge pointing up, and then the burnisher is held at an angle to the edge and drawn down the length, sometimes after filing the edge to true it up straight and square. This produces a small hook on the scraper than can then be used to pull a chip from the wood. Scrapers are very handy tools and can produce a very fine surface on wood. I usually dress both edges so I have two hooks and when viewed from the end the edge of the scraper looks like a 'T' with the ends of the top curved downward. This can be hard to see, but it is very easy to feel.

[@aceroadholder2185]

I'm not much of a woodworker either...but give me a milling machine and a lathe and I can make a pretty nice birdhouse!

[@PeteBrubaker]

My inner five year old boy's first thought "you only gave them $0.50 because they couldn't accommodate work that was 14" long, and they wasted a few tries at that."

[@khawk7365]

Great video. Did you cast the the smaller flask?

[@mrpete222]

I did not. It came from an auction

[@steveskouson9620]

Lyle, "myfordman"s handle is really "myfordboy." steve

I've looked and I've been unable to find any videos of people casting flask. Do you know of any? Glad to see you're traveling man.

Reducing a drawing can be done with a pantograph. No need for xerox machines

[@toddmccarter45]

that clamp was likely modified for a welding ground clamp, then never used.

[@sussexstreet5471]

How about using a coffee tamper?

[@Zakardis]

That rubber tipped tool you are copying reminds me of a carpet kicker.

[@markfryer9880]

Tim Attwood, Now that you mention it, yes it does remind one of a carpet kicker except the ones here in Australia have a square end pad.

Here is another neat and instructional video about pattern making. www_youtube_com/watch?v=rN09nj2Vu8g The patterns are made by 3D printing. Maybe that part would be something for mr Pete's grandson Jordan. (outside of duck hunting season of course.) :-)
