Omg, that cad outline projected onto the part in the vice is delightful

[@rodchallis8031]

yeah, loved that.

I'm wonder how he does it. the perspective, view angle, orientation, all of it matching perfectly....

[@JDLuke]

Now go watch his whole Antikythera mechanism series.

[@RSPFactory]

I can only assume he's drawing that by hand....

[@PetraKann]

@@JDLukeimagine how creative and skilled the ancient Greeks were to build the Antikythera Mechanism over 2,000 years ago?

[@chippywarren9706]

You have given me right to exist again. I am a stone carver in a world with 3D printers, cheap goods. Thank you very much.

[@RCake]

@Chris, many of the things you do may never have been filmed before. But I believe they most certainly have never been filmed at this staggering beauty, quality and attention to detail. Thank you so much for what you do, especially when paired with your always respectful, informative, never boasting attitude 🤩🥰🤩

[@metalman4217]

Excellent production as usual. The story telling, the animations, the expertise presented in such an easy to follow format is incredible. As a career machinist and manufacturing engineer your explaination of a fixture is spot on. Good precision work is always a challenge, but that is what makes machining so fascinating. Cleverness and creativity are so important, and you clearly have both in excess!

[@Clickspring]

Thank you, appreciate you tuning in to watch :)

[@dystopianlucidity4448]

It doesn’t matter what I’m watching or doing, when I see a new video from Clickspring, I stop everything.

[@Clickspring]

Great to have you watching mate :)

[@rossome3043]

Likewise.

[@sundarAKintelart]

There is some magic in what you make that's so addictive watching.

[@logannewman4532]

It is both something that grips my attention yet paradoxically also something really easy to nap to. Kind of like Bob Ross of machining.

[@sundarAKintelart]

@@logannewman4532.. the shaving from steel come out as graphite from a pencil being sharpening. Clean, clean, clean... the tool, the space, the job. Do it right the first time, every time...

A "thumbs up" can't express the satisfaction I feel every time I watch a Click spring video. Perfect!

[@ibribbr8030]

I am hypnotized. this is exactly what I want to see for a long time. thanks.

[@DonDavisGVL]

Chris, I'm no machinist but your skill and artistry seem nothing short of extraordinary. You're one of the most consistently talented makers I've seen and it's a pleasure to see what you come up with.

[@samdude1953]

Deep hole drilling has always been a big challenge for me. Your use of a reemer is very inspiring. Thanks, Chris!

[@curm1778]

Honestly, the best build series on YT

[@jfuzi3605]

Be proud, it is a long dead art,..... the art of rediscovering long dead arts and teaching them......awesome.😅

[@MrTigros87]

Mindblowing! thank you for over 24mins of pure satisfaction.

[@MyMiniHomeWorkshop]

I think I've said it before, you have the patience of a saint, and the finishes you achieve are nothing short of amazing. 👍

[@hauptmannoffensichtlich2312]

I'm so grateful I can enjoy your elegant documentation and explanation on machining projects like this one. I may not click immediately, but rather put it in my Watch Later list, so I can watch it with full concentration when I won't be disturbed for the duration of the video. Yes, I really prepare this. And think about what I've seen and learned in it later. Man, I wish I could start maching stuff myself just for fun, if I had the time for it in my life.

[@johnkelley9877]

Just incredible work! The rack teeth look consistent and very clean. This will be a great indicator. Thanks for sharing this.

[@624Dudley]

Thanks Chris! Love the animations too 👍

[@ZZZAP_Carz]

Chris, I don't know if you do read all the comments but, I wanted you to know that despite being subscribed for years, I have yet to get tired to see your work. Your craftmanship is legend but even more, your camera and montage work is simply pro level. Kudos Master Clickspring

[@Olliewilkinson]

On of my favourite channels! As an engineer myself I can’t express enough how amazing the work of arts you create are. Not only are you an expert but an artist too. The elegance and creativity put into each episode is commendable to the highest level. ASMR for a mechanical mind

[@mulletthehunter7163]

Watch Chris or spend time with the missus... no brainer! Beautiful as always 👍🏻

[@HouseholdDog]

Absolutely the best filmed machining videos on the internet. Bar none. That's without mentioning the incredible beautiful pieces you create. Never thought I would be marvelling over a bolt.

[@Ben-ht5yf]

What a beautiful gift for all those of us who have been following since the early days but haven't been able to support on patreon. I hope the academic venture is going well.

[@DanielCooper1]

As always sincerely amazing work. Just leaves my jaw on the floor, truly.

[@jmpattillo]

The finished, polished parts are so nice they almost look like cgi.

[@JohannSwart_JWS]

First class editing BTW.

[@mihaimilan9598]

The skill involved in both your machining and video making is absolutely awe inspiring. Thank you for sharing your work! Having people like Adam Savage as fans of your work says a lot about you.

[@koen7281]

Its nice to see that even someone like you that makes some of the nicest small machining projects on KZbin uses a slightly scuffed ground boring bar 19:14

[@Gamerock82]

Chris, you never disappoint. This is some top notch work, both the machining and the video. Respect.

[@tehlaser]

Simply gorgeous presentation. I especially liked the light around 16:50.

[@vicebi]

I enjoy the journey in your videos. Congratulations on your gifts and grace for sharing.

[@Trueshotarmoury.]

A thing of beauty is a joy forever. Outstanding work beautifully executed, not to mention the cinematography.

That satisfying 'pop' when you pulled the part out of the holder

[@pirminkogleck4056]

Just Awesome what u get out of that Sherline and a Mediium Sized Benchtop Mill ! You have all my Respect !!!!! By the way, you are also a Superb videographer !

[@beachcomberbob3496]

Have you ever done a 'workshop tour' type video? I'm sure a lot of us would like to see what mill, lathe etc. you use.

[@Raysnature]

Yes Chris has done one of these, have a look and you're bound to find it. Spoiler alert, it's smaller than you imagine.

[@ElectricalInsanity]

Yes, he posted a tour a few months ago

[@darrellbedford4857]

Great machining work. I look forward to your videos. The animation with the dial gauge through the water is fantastic.

[@ElectricalInsanity]

Chris, you're absolutely insane in the best way. Everything you produce is a work of art!

[@davidsmethurst4318]

Thanks Keith. Always a pleasure to watch.

[@Max_Marz]

That particular model of interapid is my favorite indicator you can buy.

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

Superb machining, coupled with superb editing, make this video one of the most impressive I've seen recently. Bravo, Chris!

[@siberx4]

Ron Covell's channel has been invaluable for the insight that smart fixturing and jigs can turn seemingly impossible tasks into straightforward repeatable ones, resulting in way more professional results. I don't do anything nearly as impressive, but it has proved instructive when I 3D print parts that it's perfectly sensible to take a few extra minutes to model up a fixture or jig using the existing dimensions in order to do things like accurately locate and drill holes on parts or otherwise help with aligning multiple pieces for gluing, cutting, or other operations. It's easy to do and costs almost nothing, but our first instinct is always to take the "quick and easy" way out when a bit of extra time could have gotten a cleaner result with no risk of failure.

[@theoutbackshed]

Clickspring is the definition of precision. Very inspirational Chris.

[@aktuelPL]

First of all: big words of appreciation for what you are doing - your attention to detail, editing, quality of graphics, narration are just stunning, educational and most importantly: inspirational. There is just one thing I thought maybe you would consider - video quality. Nowadays that could be improved - especially in a field of high dynamic range and lenses (chromatic aberration) - these beauties you machine would be worth it :) Anyways, thanks for ages of giving us stunning and uncompromising content we really love! Cheers!

[@logannewman4532]

Dude. Superimposing the hidden lines on live video of the stock in the vise is crazy cool!

[@wetryanycheesedotcom]

Absolutely fantastic! Informative, entertaining, and the inclusion of those fun new animations! Great stuff as always, but really impressive to see that your videography keeps improving with each project.

[@chrisdebruin4459]

You are a legend. You inspired me to learn how to do old-school arts like leather work smithing and carpentery

[@pjhalchemy]

Between Chris's Artdeco submersible dial indicator and Jason's Steampunk scrap Chandelier, I've got a full charge of Incredible Videograpy and Meticulous Artisanship for at least a month of Inspiration. Glad others below are noticing and appreciating the overlays and what it takes to build them into a complex sequence perfectly synced with fades and lighting!! Thanks always for the Inspiration and my favorite - "Squeaks", Chris!

[@traitorouskin7492]

I get you about procedure. I do roads and sewers but if you go step by step, keep checking levels and dimensions it's satisfying graft😊

Skill on the lathe and milling machine… and with the camera. Thanks Chris! Les in UK 🇬🇧

[@frozennunu8097]

what an upgrade in editing

[@andrewnicon]

I always find it interesting to watch this guy make tools so he can make more tools to eventually make the thing that the project is about.

[@jimsvideos7201]

Thing of beauty.

[@andydelarue9344]

It’s the machining, or the milling or the film and editing or the animation and the story telling, pretty good package from one bloke. Thanks for Chirs making it all.

To be fair, I put off going outside to work for practically any other reason, also. And sometimes for no reason at all. OK, you got me… ‘most’ times.

[@kd5tmu]

Your videos are the ones to which I most look forward. Thank you for such great work.

[@keatoncampbell820]

5:45 its funny for me to think of aluminum this way. Im primarily a welder as a metalworker, though i dabble in lathing for hinges and such... Aluminum is much more difficult to weld than steel. Since I'm usually working with hollow shapes and dimensional stock like square tube and pipes or even just sheets, the extra stiffness of steel is helpful but easy to overcome. Aluminum is finicky and requires more specialized equipment to weld. Its actually for that reason I've never machined it, and now I'm eager to give it a try. I mean i know its easier to cut than steel, but if Prof. Dr. Sgt. Clickspring describes it so, it'll probably help me get more comfortable on a lathe.

[@manythingslefttobuild]

[@logannewman4532]

As a CNC programmer in a busy R&D shop, I have a large trophy shelf with some of my fancier fixtures which may or may not ever be used again lol. I fixtures are my best opportunities to invent. Also an opportunity to show the guys on the floor how I approach modular work holding which they don't generally have to do because I provide fixtures for their parts.
