The fact that you do it on the fly speaks volumes about your ability and experience. More light is always better for your shop.

Mr. Pete, I too have been calling them Stubby drills for over 50 years. I've never had anyone not know what I was referring to. I've never ordered one, always made them as needed. Thanks for your effort in making and sharing these wonderful videos!

[@mrpete222]

Thank you for watching. And you are correct, if you told someone to hand you a screw machine bit, they would be clueless.

[@FredMiller]

Making great progress Mr. Pete. I agree with Paul Jenkins. I got used to the light very quickly. This past winter I changed all my machine task lights to LED at 5000 Kelvin. It really helps older eyes see more clearly.

[@PSUQDPICHQIEIWC]

It's true that increasing scene lighting does help with loss of visual accomodation (e.g. presbyopia). Pupillary constriction increases depth of focus, just as it would in a camera lens. That said, the advantage isn't necessarily as important unless it's in first person. The camera usually has fewer problems maintaining focus than someone with presbyopia or IOL implants, and so long as the viewer can focus at the fixed distance of the monitor, they effectively inherit the abilities of the camera. While both are important, I think that contrast (i.e. depth and contour) is more effective at making clear video/photography than brightness alone. Lighting angle is a tool that's worth using.

[@dougvanallen2212]

Mr Pete there is a great difference with the light the brighter the better

As always a great DIY'r video. We truly have a gem in our Mr Pete that is rare as "grits" in NYC! Keep it up dear person.

My grandson picked out one of those dead blow hammers. I bought it for him as a toy, and it is doing good work in the shop.

Be sure to tell your wife how lucky she is to have made a catch like you. You are a great blend of handy and funny. If I remember correctly those are two of the top qualities listed in the Man Book (1956 Edition) that women are looking for. You are an inspiration to all men. :-)

Thanks for asking and getting the LED's, I'm good either way. You can drop a notch on the white balance or use a diffuser if you want. We all need more light in our lives...I'm usually a Stinker about such things but the quality isn't in the lighting as much as what you bring. A 1000 ways to do something in the shop, but there is Only 1 way Mr. Pete does it and always a pleasure to learn and have some fun. Who knew lady bugs like Quaker State...for a minute anyway. Come to think of it they do have that rancid smell of sulfur/paraffin to them. Good to know I was wrong about the oil and gear material. Great series so far, Thanks! BTW, never Boring in my book.

Great work MrPete! The LED is bright, but the camera seems to adjust fairly quickly. Fit a diffuser for the light if need be. This is an interesting project! See you in part 4.

[@mrpete222]

[@stxrynn]

That blue light, yuk!! Lotsa glare. You can hang some tracing paper in front of it to knock that down a bit. The old light has more red, warmer. So it is easier on my eyes. More like sunshine than that horrible LED stuff. Reminds me of: "We have a blue light special in aisle 13, Women's Combat Boots for $5.95!!" I love the little nuggets you throw in: HF hammer, oil soaked bugs, etc.... Can't skip around with that machining goodness sprinkled all through the video. Thanks, Professor Pete!!

As we get older we need more light LED's are great your channel is teaching me a lot can you show more setups etc

All your videos have had great lighting and camera angles. A moment or two after you compared the lights, I'd forgotten which was which. I think you should use whatever works best for you.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much, read through the comments. Most people hate my new $200 worth of lights

[@Birender100]

Sir, Absolutely flawless methodology adopted. Enjoyed every bit of your work in this Video. The only envy is the speed and perseverance shown. My best wishes to you and all the best for the future. Thanks. New Delhi, India.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much for watching, I am glad you like the videos. And you live on the other side of the world

I'd say its completely sufficient without the LEDs. With it, it looks overexposed. Great series BTW, I'm liking it!

[@mrpete222]

[@FKreider]

I could hear the 3D printer running in the background a couple times in this video (I know the sound well as I now own a CR10 too) anxiously awaiting a foundry video where the pattern is 3D printed!

[@ralphgould2783]

Mr. Pete, I think the LED light is an improvement. It does appear to be daylight color temperature which give the blue cast. You can buy an orange gel which will make it match your other lights if you want.

[@mrpete222]

🤙🤙

[@cosimomarotta9552]

Waiting for all other parts. I would have machined separate jaws letting vice structure as is.

[@miguelcastaneda7236]

Cosimo Marotta hmm would have gone the extra mile and purchased extra large piece of stock and extra machineing and made dovetail part of vise as a whole.....

[@kpnckasni4902]

[@marvinpybus4599]

Like the detail definition of the LED, but not the glare. Don't know much about photography, but perhaps there is a filter that will reduce the glare while keeping the definition?

Thank you for another interesting video. The project is coming along nicely. I think I prefer the new lighting,- I am a few years younger - (nearly 70) - than you but my eyes are not as good, but neither is my hearing, so maybe I'm just old before my time!

[@mrpete222]

😂

[@kerrywil1]

LED. 5000 Kelvin is where the Daylight film was calibrated to give true color. You video may have white balance. BUT led the LED will give true color. florescence burn with green tint unless you get the Daylight ones. In the old day you added a Pink filter to your lens to counter balance the florescence green tint. Another great Job

[@mrpete222]

You are way beyond me

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Light is a bit bright but a small adjust to the camera should fix that. Well done on the project.

[@mrpete222]

👌

[@Legion_NZ]

At first the LEDs seemed to much, but I quickly got used to it. You might need to alter the white balance in the camera if it's not already set to automatic...

[@robmckennie4203]

Exactly what I was going to say, colour balance isn't quite right but looks good besides that

[@MaturePatriot]

Part of that is camera adjusting the white balance. The brighter light is better. Maybe put a diffuser in front of the bulb.

[@billyhooks99]

Great video Mr Pete. Not berating your work flow you are doing great work but i have found that turning a shaft to fit a bored hole is much easier. Therefore i would have bored slightly undersize and turned the part to fit.

[@mrpete222]

[@elsdp-4560]

THANK YOU...for sharing. Without the LED.

[@mrpete222]

😂

[@OleGramps53]

Only item I really noticed was the color change with the brighter light of your Bridgeport but that actually allowed you to see the machine work better. Your old lighting may be natural light wave length compared to the higher intensity of the new light. Will let you work safer at your machine which keeps your head from getting to close while running. Which I’ve had to do to see things in poorly lite areas.

[@mrpete222]

[@flatheadronsgarage7345]

Nice video. A ground surface would be nice for looks. Like your operation explanations. My LED lights have the option of adjusting the intensity and warmth. Got them 30 bucks each at the big membership store.

[@mrpete222]

Mine were 20 bucks apiece. And I bought 10. Wish I had not. Look at the comments, most people hate them. I did not know they made a adjustable ones

[@johndifrancisco3642]

Ah yes. I remember those hot chips well. In my nose, in my mouth, my ears and down the shirt. We called it a fly cutter, I presume for that reason :)

[@mrpete222]

lol

[@stevewilliams2498]

Hi Mr. Pete. Just in case you were "testing" us ... You actually showed a slot drill and said that "an end mill" wont cut to centre. A slot drill is ground with offset cutting lands so that it will drill. Do I get extra points for spotting this ? Or am I being a smart arse and just adding to your dull cutter aggrivation ?

[@mrpete222]

Mr. Pete. If the views are down for this video it has nothing to do with how good it is. But it looks like it's for people who want to know about this mill. I apologize if I'm wrong, but I didn't watch it.

Lyle, since you are a tool "collector" such as i .. im suprised you dont have a d bit cutter to re-sharpen all those end mills you have :)

[@mrpete222]

I had one at the high school and learned to hate it. Also requires a surface grinder which I do not have. I own 500 milling cutter's brand new

[@RaptorMachineToolCo]

i can understand that... but, its also another thing to do a video on !

[@ronringel9132]

Please use LED lighting... thank you.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you, I am shocked at how many people hated the new lighting

[@brucematthews6417]

Quite the enjoyable to watch project. On the jaws idea what about "stealing" the hardened jaws from a cheap low profile wobbly and thus useless drill press vise? I wouldn't give you a plugged nickel for those sort of vises but as a jaws donor for this project I think those bits of junk might just find a good purpose.

[@mrpete222]

[@yanwo2359]

That's close to the snarky comment I deleted. :) I had the same question. Then I figured you could do the mill work on a friend's mill. Or, figure out a way to do the whole thing on the lathe. Maybe we can get our teacher to show us how to do that.
