How to measure using the proper tools, part 2.

[@ellieprice3396]

Thanks, Don and Glen, for your very helpful video on precision measuring. As a long time machinist and tool maker I've never found a better method of cleaning a micrometer than a sheet of plain white paper. Simply clamp the anvils lightly on the paper and slide the paper out. The slight abrasiveness will clean the surfaces of any foreign matter.

I inherited my father's and great uncles' machinist tools. Beautiful old Starrett and Brown and Sharpe. But oh, I also got a cache of Suburban tooling that my father used to restore Merline engines for flying vintage aircraft. Using these I can feel my father and great uncle's hands on my shoulders.

I love how don explains things. You can tell he really likes sharing his knowledge and experience.

[@SuburbanToolInc]

Thank you!

[@santopezzotti730]

Thanks Don I am a 71 year old newbie but you are my go to guy to learn thanks again

[@dannywilsher4165]

Thanks Don and Glen. I always enjoy watching your videos!!!

[@pauldevey8628]

Keep producing video and great tooling Don. Thank you!

[@scottrackley4457]

I laughed when Don said he had loaners. Same. No one is touching my B&S but me, and it doesn't have a friction thimble either.

[@SuburbanToolInc]

Thanks!

[@theh0r5e90]

these videos are great keep them coming Mr Bailey and thank you to Mr Glenn for being such a good co-host one thing I want to see is optical comparators and air gauges

[@codprawn]

Great series both of you!

[@countryracer69]

Thank you and looking forward to the next installment.

In my first career I was a journeyman toolmaker working in the machine tool industry. I used to see a lot of your work in our shop. In my second career I can only reminisce about making precision parts through your videos. There are several other quality shops putting out CNC videos, but they seem to ignore the importance of your type of work.

[@CentreWheel]

Thanks Don for taking the time to produce this video. Very informative. Will be looking forward to the rest of the series.

[@baggd65]

These are very educational videos for me. Thank you guys.

[@intagliode]

Thanks for sorting out the audio guys! Past few videos have had really bad audio. 👍

[@marley589]

The dial 'digital' caliper can also measure a step using the ends of the jaws. They are usually termed as 4 way or quadri measurement.

[@arnoldsmachinetool4632]

Great setup for what is to come.

[@dauber1828]

Thanks Don for another great video

[@DT21870]

Great video guys, I've really learned so much from this channel over the years. Keep it coming!

[@perrettamachineshop]

I also appreciate you doing these videos. I've been in the trade for over 40 years, but still like going back to refresh my memory about metrology methods. If you don't dust out the cobwebs from time to time you can lose valuable information.

[@bfflorida2311]

As always great video, very educational.

[@robertfenney]

Thanks for sharing you guys are great!

[@GuyFawkes911]

Great video, I think a video on what you think is essential for a small shop to have for measurement equipment would be great.

[@Eggsr2bcrushed]

Love the videos Don. Look forward to seeing you again at IMTS next year.

[@BigRedR-o7h]

Such nice and knowledgeable gentlemen.

[@bestfriendhank1424]

Don should have measured Glenn’s height. I am glad to see new videos once again. 👍🏻

[@DK-vx1zc]

Interesting Info. Thanks for sharing!

[@aminarahman189]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@BiffHutchison]

Great info as always guys

[@lwoodt1]

Your videos are a great introduction to the world of measuring. Would you do a video on surface plates and explain that when,,what we think of as flat , is not really flat. The more we learn about measuring the more interesting it becomes.

[@SuburbanToolInc]

These videos address it to some extent. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqbMZ6OGj61mbLc kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6CooqWAqqagl6s Thank you for watching!

[@lwoodt1]

@@SuburbanToolInc Thank you . I'll watch those also.

[@captcarlos]

Always worth watching, Don. What you call Reference I call Comparitors. IE, they compare an absolute with what you are measuring. I would place micrometers in that group as you use a reference to set them. Another group like mics would be snap gauges which I don't hear much about these days. I enjoy the art/science of 'manual' measurement. The modern CMM's, that I've never seen or touched, would seem to reduce the skill required in the QA department. Please, keep up the good work.

[@imnotahealthandsafetyperso4889]

What no comments that’s crazy, how about a video of making something on the Bridgeport or correct way to measure t slots for making t slot nuts Always great videos and info

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

Nice to watch yet one more video from You Don. Having a university education in measuring I say You would place as the head for that subject. One idea. Before bringing up, or buying, the measure instruments, define the actual accuracy needed. Don't use the most precise, the most expensive, instrument of the lab, and worn them out. Use what's actually needed.

[@Airman..]

Very informative thank you

[@wbad1053]

You had mentioned transferring heat from your hand into the tool and how it would effect the measurement. That's quite fascinating. Is there a standard temperature or temperature range that tools of that quality and type should be used in?

[@SuburbanToolInc]

Our inspection room is kept at 68° F.

[@theundergroundesd]

good job

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

good video
