WONDERFUL, your production skills are second to none. put a smile on my face and I laughed out loud. thank you for BRIGHTENING my day.

[@matthewhopkins666]

The neighbours are like "There's that crazy John signalling to the aliens again". 👽

[@rgaborjr]

You’re the best you-tuber out there. Love the shows. Love to learn and share in the fun. Thank you!

[@davidcoats1037]

Operator: “911 what’s your emergency”? Neighbor: “It’s Scoutcrafter again. I think he’s really lost it this time. He has invented a tiny sun. Send help immediately”! 😆🤣😂

[@michaelowens7151]

Bon-Ami stopped making any liquid products in 2014 but they still make their famous 1886 Formula cleaner which contains feldspar and tallow. It’s great for mirrors and glass, but only on older auto glass or windows without coatings. Used as a light paste you can clean or polish just about any smooth surface. It used to come in a “bar” form but now only as a powder; however it works the same. If not available locally it’s no doubt on Amazon or on a web search. Like that 1500 Watt Bulb, great stuff!

[@metrofarmer913]

Having been a safety inspector, I commend you for discussing the importance of the guards and wearing eye and face protection. Always better than squinting.

[@Traderjoe]

When you were saying you were going to dress the wheel and then flashed a picture of a Norton stone, my mind couldn’t help but say Hello Wheel!

[@Ricopolico]

Gotta thank you, Scout. I'm to the age where I don't hop to it for any task. So, I was working on a car in the drive and when I had to get up, I rolled out from under the car, but I stopped and lay in the grass on my back and, with you in mind, I looked at the sky for a few minutes. It had been so long, I had forgotten the simple pleasure of looking at the sky.

[@ScoutCrafter]

A bright blue sky with white puffy clouds all around and hidden shapes in all of them. Singing birds in the background... Life is good!

[@JohnDaker_singer]

Wow!!!! One of my top ten Scoutcrafter videos! Thanks for the laughs and the knowledge.

[@JohnDaker_singer]

My favorite is the one where you go to the tool show and you have a buddy say “Hey Scoutcrafter……you suck!!!”. I love self-deprecating humor. No one is above it.

[@stevef8993]

You really crack me up John!! Love the Frankenstein reenactment! That’s one big bulb.

[@357magdad]

It's alive!! Nice! I always keep an eye out for steel wool and sandpaper at yard sales.

[@LionheartRacingSeries]

Absolutely love your videos. Love your creativity and all the cool things your into. Thanks for sharing your stories about you and your family. Such great content. Really appreciate all the effort you put into your videos. Keep up the great work!

[@2dividedby3equals666]

This is what I call entertainment!! First class stuff John, thanks for the laugh!!!

[@johntanner7879]

Love the skit. I had to share it with my wife! Being self taught there are big voids in my knowledge base so it is great to go over some basic information. I will be dressing my wheels to run true. I just re watched your two videos on lubrication and found very helpful. You could redo them into one as you already have a lot of the video footage just add and edit! They were Fantastic and very useful videos. Industrial Westinghouse bulbs are as rare as a thousand dollar bill. I purchased two huge industrial fixtures with a ballast and the huge bulbs gave $5 for them I never powered them on I was too unsure to do it. I ended up selling them on eBay for $300 each so there must have been a big demand for them then. However, I but just bought a led light that screws into a socket and gives off 18,400 lumens that is bright.

[@johnkelley9877]

The ending was neat! I learned a lot about the bench grinders and the information was very helpful. This was a great Friday night tutorial! Thanks for sharing this.

[@cradd00]

1000 watts! Wow, I've never seen a bulb that big! A cool story about the variac, Eddie Van Halen used to power his guitar amps with a variac. He would under power the vacuum tubes to get a unique distortion sound. For a long time nobody could figure out how he got his "brown" sound.

[@alexkay1874]

You have more fun than People . Good Show Thanks SC

[@paulsworkshop4179]

You remind me of Doc Brown. That is a cool bulb. Your neighbors must love you.

[@Garland77]

Your neighbors must love you!

[@chuckmays3857]

Very entertaining way to kick off the weekend. The large light bulb reminds me of the ones my father would bring home from working at the power company (rotated or bad street light bulbs) by the case. We would take them down to the railroad tracks far from town and have a shooting gallery about once a year. Normal activity for the early 60’s. 👍

[@donaldrouleau4269]

Hahaha great show tonight John I just love those old Frankenstein movies

[@lotsabirds]

That explains all those UFOs lately! I wonder how many pilots coming into LaGuardia or Kennedy saw that thing?? I think I saw the Jones Beach tower during the lifeguard story. I can't tell you how many times I drove passed it. Great video, John! Don't ever lose that kid that's inside you!!!

[@tonylenge424]

Next to my uncle you are the second oldest kid I know! He is the oldest. Thanks for the video.

[@judithwolfmandell3782]

So John, did the Chinese in their space station answer your message? Could not stop laughing....very funny. Made my day. Allan

[@ironhead65]

Bet you that bulb was throwing off some heat! Fun video, thanks!

[@uncleblack7322]

John, you crack me up...love the stage play...very entertaining...

[@TomGunnTools]

John the end was outstanding! Great work!

[@billv1410]

Very Cool ! I got a flashback my Dad liked Bon Ami also. You are right about the media and right will prevail ! Thank You

[@timwarren3501]

Great episode. I told my wife , next vacation I wanted to go to Scoutcrafters!

[@glengrossnickle4985]

Used to change large bulbs like that at the hospital in our parking garage. But I think they were only 500. We used to change bulbs out on each floor after a certain amount of time. We were ok to take them home. I still have a few. I liked the bulbs on our helicopter pad. The filament in those were thick. We had one guy that it was his whole job to go around the hospital and change burnt out bulbs. Stay safe and healthy my friend. Thanks

[@mrbenmall]

My compliments to the wardrobe dept.

[@frankg3072]

Great teaching video about the bench grinder. It’s like being in a shop class. Your neighbors must think you’re a nut job!,

[@Resto-Rob]

Great information about the dressing tool. Fantastic demonstration / presentation of that bulb. I loved the mad scientist!

[@PETANIROCKER79]

I love it jhon..👍👍 NewSub here

[@larrycroft470]

Hi John!!! So glad to see you!!! I like these shows that are longer...the longer the better!!!! I hope you have a great weekend buddy!!

[@davidgustafson6189]

John the 'Bulb Meister'. :-) Good show Johnenstein

[@huub_meyer]

love the bulb keep up the good work

[@michaelcampagna93]

That light show is awesome!

[@not2fast4u2c]

You lighting the bulb was like the old horror movie shows on Saturday night like Svengoolie on ME TV

[@isasams76]

Fantastic ! Thanks for this great video !

[@toolscarriagesmodellbauand7246]

Your grandfather was probably Doc Brown. Great show

[@mpdonn317130]

Good times with light bulbs! On the wheel hazards, back in The early 70s my brother was using my father’s wheel and it came apart and hit him in the forehead and earned him a trip to the emergency room. The injuries turned out to be superficial but looked terrible right after it happened. I think it was in 1971 or so.

[@BRay.549]

New subscriber here. Your videos are awesome; this is the best one so far! Keep 'em coming.

[@edwardschrader2853]

You excel at teaching

[@billmiller7138]

That grinder looks near new! I have a 1/4HP Craftsman that I bought while still in high school in the 60s. It's been through a few cord replacements and many wheels and a lot of heavy use. I was wire wheeling with it this afternoon. Guess it's gonna outlast me!

[@joeheilm]

Lol...love it, I wish i was your neighbor. I could go on and on about grinders 🙈🙈🤣. Cheers

[@buddynewman8949]

Cool video, made me chuckle. You sure have kept busy over the years with a variety of interests and projects.

[@Ricopolico]

What a great video! So much good stuff. Did you ever see Bon Ami in bar form? When we first got married, my wife, Mrs. Anderson, swore by the stuff. We lived in an Ol' Skool apartment that had double-hung windows with 12 panes of glass on the top sash. Then, she couldn't find it anymore.

[@RobertBosworth]

As always, another great video. But that ending…Made my day. Thank you, John. 😂😂😂

[@nicknicoletti9778]

I’m having a hard time trying to figure out if I’m watching a scoutcrafter production or Stephen Spielberg ?!?!. What a very cool light bulb. I can say I haven’t seen one like that. Have a great weekend!

[@65csx83]

As always (so far) lots of good info. A great use for that Bon Ami (and the bar) is house windows. Aluminum screens in storm windows have a tendency to leave a kind of oxidize film on windows which had my parents frustrated. For a change I was able to educate them about a product they had but didn't realize it could do.

[@larrydemaar409]

You light up my life! That was fun. Enjoyed the grinder tips, also.

[@saigaking]

Loved the video scout really interesting information about the grinder Dresser .the grinder is such a great tool I think we all learned the hard Way on those things same with the buffer it grabs and off it goes ha ha Fantastic video have a great weekend god bless take care 👍🙏🗽🇺🇸🇳🇿

[@TheSuperwrenchGarage]

What an awesome bulb...love the mad scientist vibe!

[@markrandall1456]

Wow. That last slide. You should sell t shirts with that image on it. "Doktor ScoutCraftah!" From Les Petite Cotes, thanks for the fun! :-)

[@troon5488]

One of my favourite ScoutCrafter vids yet!

[@waynemiracle8928]

Absolutely love it! I would love to know some of the conversations your neighbors have! 😃

[@carldelawter8900]

I seen the light, I seen the light, no more worries, no more strife. . . 😇🎶🎵 It's alive, it's alive‼️🤪 ⚡🗯🧟‍♂️ Safety 1st, always❕❕ Walk outta the shop with all the body parts intact that you walked into it with❗❗😐 Grinder 101. Fabulous! It's the bomb! 💣🗯👍

[@greghomestead8366]

Wonder what his neighbors think? 🤔😲🤪 Very cool!!!! Have a Jesus filled day everyone Greg in Michigan

[@jobygochoco2731]

hahaha...funny Frankenstein episode John....nice one...

[@shanester366]

This is the first time ive seen an incandescent mogul base lamp, pretty cool! Ive seen the HID ones tho. A few years back we were doing a job and I was able to snag one of the old runway lights, the lamp inside it was really cool looking, I replaced the insides with a normal Edison socket I got from home depot but I kept the old one and lamp.

[@kevinbrassil9836]

Thanks ScoutCrafter having lunch at work and I have a grin ear to ear. That’s Entertainment!!

[@choppermike3329]

HaHa!! I immediately thought of Young Frankenstein. Bon Ami is good stuff. The powder version is excellent also. Thanks

[@davetarrant6888]

TGIF - That bulb is a monster, so cool. There is just something about guys and bright lights, you gotta love it! Hope you have a great weekend.

[@LilasTools]

I learned a lot about grinding wheels and yeah we did have fun with that crazy big bulb!

[@diannelogsdon6107]

I worked at a coal power plant in Trenton NJ for 37 years. We had those large mogal base bulbs in our large drop lights. Indoor or outside, they worked worked great and rugged.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Wow! I bet that shop was absolutely fantastic... A coal furnace making steam that ran turbines that powered hundreds of homes! Awesome!

[@EsKo72]

You look like Doc Emmett Brown (back to the future) with your classes . . . 1,21 Gigawatts . . .

[@x99j]

That bulb brings back memories of my elementary school gymnasium! No ballasts to worry about! I bet those get hot!

[@peterjames2580]

Thanks for the show! I have a wheel dresser Iv'e never used.

[@vincentwesolowski459]

I love it John, your neighbors must be having a good laugh too.

[@thunderstruck1078]

I knew something good was coming when I heard "We'll suit up".

[@Roadkillstew]

this is awesome. thanks for linking me up.

[@ronsbeerreviewstools4361]

Another very good video. We have those 1000 watt bulbs here at generating plant in Boston, Cheers !

[@dane.1847]

Hey ScoutCrafter. Great video. Every time I see that brand of cleaner, Bon Ami, I remember the old lady from the Don Knotts movie “The Ghost and Mr. Chicken”

[@greghomestead8366]

Great movie. Just throw the book at the bookshelf and woosh

[@davidkay4174]

Staring ScoutCrafter in his latest role , as a mad sciencentist in , The Giant Bulb Creature

[@jimmacdonald9746]

It seems like an age since we used 1000w halogen lamps …since then we have seen sodium lamps , metal halide lamps and now LED….where will it all end?👍🏻🇬🇧 great vid John as always

[@wayneo7307]

Hi Scout , 4 0000 Steel Wool Is Good For Fishing Reel Restoration . Too Funny With the Bulb ! Where's Elviral !

[@tooladdict7463]

🤣🤣🤣🤣That lightbulb is amazing but God knows what your neighbours of must’ve thought

[@melkc345]

Absolutely LOVE it!! A variac and welding glasses should be in every DIYer's tool kit. Thanks for another great video John. Jim

[@Ricopolico]

Sorry to monopolize your channel, Scout, but you might dig this. When I went to school, in the middle of the main building was an Ol' Skool Power Lab. Large motors and generators japanned black, connected by thick leather belting and all set on a floor of red quarry tile. The kinda place Tesla would have felt at home. The loads were LARGE banks of 1000 watt lamps. Sad to say, before I had an opportunity to play around with that heavy equipment, some jagoff thought it would be cool to replace all that irreplaceable stuff with a Semiconductor lab. I took my "power lab" sitting at a table with a washing machine motor in front of me.

[@805ROADKING]

Great tutorial on the Grind Stones Mate!! Big light bulbs are fun!! Mike has a whole box of 2500 watt bulbs, you probably seen the video of us lighting them with the twin Caterpillar Welder two years ago at the Coolspring Show!!☺

[@ScoutCrafter]

That was a FANTASTIC VIDEO!!!!!!!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGjPhpV4oNqgf9k

[@robertsherman5428]

Great video many thanks I appreciate your time and info on the dresser for the grinding stones had one in my shop and never knew what it was for again truly appreciate your video Your just so BRIGHT lol

[@uktony1525]

What a brilliant bulb (literally). I have a 1000 watt security light covering the back garden and very soon halogen bulbs are being discontinued therefore I need to stock up.

[@TrollBenable]

whenever its a beautiful sun set sky with beautiful colours and clouds i wish i could get ontop of a sky scraper roof or something it would be amazing

[@mikeedwards6162]

As ever a great video but what a brilliant ending.

[@alfiversen7023]

Haha, great fun! Mad tool scientist😂

[@cheekymonkey444]

When I was a kid we would go down to the local town dump. The town would regularly throw out the burned out street light bulbs, and also the traffic signal bulbs. They were packed in the original boxes. The guys would change out the burned out ones and put them back in the padded cases. We'd spend the day shooting the bulbs with my BB gun. We would set up many around the dump as a shooting course. And also a few of us would hold them by the base and they were shot out of our hands. That was exciting! Try that today and you would be up on murder charges. Every now and again there would be a large pile of spray paint cans dumped there. They were rejects from some paint factory. They were set up on old hot water heaters and shot with my .22. A lit candle was placed along side and when the propellant hit the flame it was quite spectacular. Whirling, flaming cans of paint. P.S hope you used SPF 50 around that bright light!

[@ScoutCrafter]

Those were awesome times!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jlowe181]

The ending was epic!!!!!!awesome

[@jessicagreene1773]

Hello 38th Precinct, some guy is dressed like he is from Bellevue and he has this huge light bulb and is shouting like he is Frankenstein or something !

[@bigmikeh5827]

1000watts divided by 120volts is 8.3 amps. That’s a lot of amps my friend. W/V=amps. Just a little from my vid😉. The picture of your dad and his truck would have blown my dad away. He was a master model builder and loved building the Mack R series in 1/25 scale. That would have been a great subject for him to do. I’ll shoot you some pics of his projects. stay safe.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Mike, it seems like all our fathers had some kind of hobby to keep them going. Even some non-handy fathers had their bowling league... They were all interesting, everyone of them!

[@lotsatrains]

1000 watts of pure light power that’s an awesome bulb Now I know why I lost power at my house for about an hour last night and I’m dead serious not kidding you must have put a hurting on the power grid Haha! But I love that awesomeness!!!

[@bigvicsworkshop]

You never fail to deliver, Mr. John! Enjoyed it! Put a white wig on.. and to me, you'd look just like the doc from back to the future. 👍 My friend, I hope you have a gooden!

[@jmegown52302]

Loved it! 👍👍👍🥼💡

[@g-palloyd3600]

“ITS ALIVE!” LOL! Neighbors used to be scared to death, now it’s “ Oh, just John playin’”

[@alexstools]

TGIF indeed, don't know what it is (warm weather probably) but it's been a long while since I fell a sleep on a Friday after dinner on the couch. You know what John, I wish more people around here/there had starring at the clouds for too long on their list of issues! I hope you'll have a great weekend!!

[@terrystewart2070]

Man the fun I could have with a 1000 watt bulb! Back yard, on a motion detector=raccoons blindly scattering away never to tear up yard my again!

[@joshdelay]

Great video!!! Loved it!
