THIS & THAT episode #53 tubalcain mrpete

[@ohmbug10]

The mini mill model made my jaw drop...table moves in all 3 axes!!! You can tell when you're in a great hardware store when you ask the clerk for some obscure item and they get a twinkle in their eye and invite you "upstairs"!

[@Daledavispratt]

What a wonderful honor to your brother's memory. Thanks for sharing, Mr Pete.

[@AJR2208]

G'Day Lyle. Traditionally, men have trouble publicly sharing emotion, loss and inner pain that they somehow, irrationally, think it amounts to a failure of some kind. Thank you for showing courage in sharing your memories and love of your brother Jan. This is not being a "Shop Teacher" but instead you are being a "Life Teacher", so Many Thanks :)

[@mrpete222]

Thank you so much for your sensitivity and a very kind comment

Wow, that’s quite a double whammy. Very hard to go through, I will pray for you

[@daleburrell6273]

Oh no...my condolences. Having a hobby that involves tinkering in the shop, in my experience, is a good way to escape the grief, if only for short periods. Be well.

[@markthecraneman8465]

What a terrible thing to happen....I hope your Dad gets better soon.

[@trialnterror]

My condolences on your brother sir. You know you look at old pictures and time is just like a blur it goes by so fast. I know we will see our loved ones again, more importantly when it’s our time I know we will be able to do the things we loved doing here on earth!

[@jeffryblackmon4846]

Thanks be to God. What a touching thought of that former neighbor to leave a tribute scholarship fund.

[@JeffGeee]

I'm so sorry for your loss, It was obvious that you and your brother "Jan from Cody, Wyoming" was very special to you and through you to all of us. My sincere condolences for your loss and my thanks for all you have done . I'm sure as you have changed my life, so too have you changed many many others. Peace.

Mr. Pete, this is a very good video. The models you showed are so impressive, trying to visionlize the time each builder spent on making them, and enjoying all of it. I thank you for sharing the memory of your neighbor and his gift to your brother's merory. Wihing you and your family all great days.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@daveharriman2756]

I'm glad that there is a seemingly endless supply of your videos, lots for me to look forward to, I must say I am always moved whenever you mention your brother Jan, and that letter you got with the promise of a scholarship in his name, just shows there are still good people in this world, best regards, Dave

May Jesus rest your dear brother's soul Lyle. I have a brother that is in VERY bad health. So I can equate with you. He is 85 and I will be 88 come April 5th; so time is near. And always remember how much we love our "Mr Pete"! For there is none like you. May Jesus bless you and yours always dear friend.

Mr Pete, your channel is the most enjoyable and easiest one to watch on KZbin!!! I've learned more from you than I would ever think possible! It's not just the machining but I love that part, It's not just knowing about your life story and I love that part, it's not just that you are an awesome person and I totally love that part also, and it's not just that you have a way of sharing that we all love. It's just incredible that God rolled all these talents and attributes up in one man and shared it with all of us who dearly love you Mr. Lyle Peterson!!!!! How can we ever do anything to repay you for all that you have shared. Thank you sir, much appreciation sent your way!!!!!

[@SSArt98]

That's great news & a great way to honor your Brother's memory. _The table-top Bridgeport is awesome!_ Sad to see old hardware stores like these close up, we had J.G. DePrez. (A very big and busy place back in the day) ~ You made my day by mentioning Andrew Camarata! _A very quirky, smart, inventive and all-around great guy!_ (I can't wait till he gets the roof upon his container castle! I've been watching many of his videos lately, hours at a time. They're so calming in a way and very interesting!) ~~ Thanks for the share & have a great day! James

[@mrpete222]

I actually enjoy his channel more than any other on KZbin. Fortunately, many of his videos are very long. That’s the first thing I look at when a new one comes out, it’s just see how long it is. I love it when they are over an hour. He truly is an amazing person. Not all of his work is perfect or correct , But he will tackle any problem and never gets mad, LOL.

[@TrevorDennis100]

Lyle I made a couple of spill proof containers today using what was described as yogurt pots from the supermarket. They cost me NZ$2:00 each, and have the right shape with a full width screw on cap, and hold about a quarter of a pint. I made a brush sized hole in the lid, and have tried tipping them over when a third full with cutting oil, and nothing leaked. You can even get them with four different coloured lids (the container itself is transparent). Having knocked an ope topped container half full of soluble oil off the mill table last week, and creating a BIG mess, I am feeling pleased with myself. Fingers crossed that RTD does eat through the plastic.

[@allanpowell7208]

Always a pleasure to watch except when you had that fudge at the end and I rushed to my fridge to find all the chocolate gone. This was very frustrating. Cheers and kindest regards

[@jnathan155]

Thanks, Mr. Pete, for including my rectilinear engine in this video. And thanks so much for your wonderful machining videos over the years. The lessons I learned from you enabled me to construct this rather unique engine. John Nathan (one of your internet students)

I’m sorry for your loss Pete. Sending my prayers and condolences.

[@Siskiyous6]

Great episode, love the photo of you and your brother. They remain in our hearts. My Great Aunt Non Huffman made divinity on a wood fired kitchen stove, she never did change to electricity. Her husband retired Del Norte County Sheriff Bud Huffman use a Smith and Wesson Model 1898 Third Model Hand Ejector 38 Special when he was Sheriff, it was passed down to him by his father who also carried it as Sheriff. That gun is the root of my love of machinery, I have the exact model of Bridgeport that your model copies, and lead me to watching you religiously. Thank you for Mr. Pete for being such a vibrant person and teacher.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much for watching. I enjoyed your story about the gun. Guns are what my brother originally did by hand as a boy before graduating to machinery. His love was for the guns more than the machines. I love to fondle my Ruger pistols, cocking them, rotating the cylinder Etc. It is just great to examine all of the moving parts and their interaction with one another. I do not actually shoot them very much, because of my tinnitus.

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

What a tremendous tribute to your brother by that family friend. Really enjoyed the model engines in this episode.

Mr. Pete, Listening to your video while i was working you mentioned going to some shows in Florida, and i was curious if you might have ever met my late Grandfather, Raymond Taylor? He traveled the hit and miss engine shows for many many years all across the south east united states, took me with him many times, was well liked and respected by many people around the country.

[@mrpete222]

This was the only show I ever went through in Florida

[@garygsp3]

Growing up we had a hardware store that was like Herrcke Hardware though it wasn't near as big of a store. You could walk into that store and get just about anything you wanted. It might take them a few minutes to find where they put it but it was just absolutely packed. When the two gentlemen that ran the store retired and they sold everything in the store, man that was like losing a loved one. I've never been in a store since that had anywhere near that character.

[@mrpete222]

I totally agree. There was a store here in town called Williams hardware. It was three stories high. There wasn’t anything that they did not have. Ammunition, gun powder furnaces. In 1958 there was a terrible fire, it burnt to the ground. Modern merchandising requires that all items remain on the shelf for only 90 days if you were to make money on them

[@darkobul1]

Thank you for showing those stones. I wanted to get some but didn't know how to look for them.

[@jerrywallen8327]

[@elsdp-4560]

THANK YOU...for sharing. I watched and as always very much enjoyed.

[@dalegriggs5392]

Mr. Pete, Nice this and that video. A couple of thing caught my interest. We had a local hardware store in my small town in Pike County , Illinois very similar to the one in LA Salle. Just a simple store, locally owned and I don’t think there was anything they didn’t have or could get. Nothing but fine quality tools and hardware equipment. I miss that type of store. The other thing was the Divinity. My wife makes the best Divinity I’ve ever tasted and if you know anything about making it it’s no easy process. She always waits until the ambient humidity is very low. She claims that is the main ingredient in the divinity making process. Whatever, I know it’s good and the best of my favorite candy. (By the way, we never call it fudge here. Fudge is a chocolate concoction) lol

[@mrpete222]

My friend in Baton Rouge, apologize for the late delivery of my divinity. He blamed it on the weather, and said he had to wait for a dry spell. My mother would sometimes make it, and about half of the time it didn’t harden right. She always. Said it was difficult to make. I have another friend here in Illinois who’s wife makes it for me occasionally. She apologize for the last batch, it was gooy. You can sometimes get it at Walmart, but it is absolutely awful. One bite, and I threw the whole batch away. You are lucky to have a wife that can make it! Thanks

[@dalegriggs5392]

mrpete222 if the humidity is high there is no way divinity will harden to that crispy, crunchy texture. It is either gooey Like you mentioned or just turns into soft crumbles. Of course it isn’t right without a good portion of Illinois pecans. There is no comparison in the flavor. The southern paper shell pecans produces abundant pecan meats and easily extracted but no way do they compare with the small, hard shell Midwest variety. We had three pecan trees out by the barn and it was always a right of passage to gather them and shell them out in the fall in preparation for holiday cooking. We invented various machines to crack the shells to produce the whole nutmeat. Nirvana!

[@jeffpitzer8521]

If you or any of your viewers get a chance to visit southern california.. Carlsbad CA is the home of the craftsmanship museum. Hundreds of model engines of all types from supercharged smallblock V8's to aircraft engines, inboard and outboard boat engines, steam engines, complete running cars..all in miniature. There's a Bridgeport mill about the same size as the model you were given and if I remember correctly it had a working motor and the quill even went up and down! Had a mini rotary table too!... you can look it up on the internet and see many pictures but to see it in person was a bucket list item for me..

[@mrpete222]

Wow, I would love to go to that museum

[@jeffpitzer8521]

Lyle, I know you would love it. Words cannot describe the awesomeness of this place! It's owned by the man that invented the Shureline(sp) hobby lathes and milling machines. They have a full machine shop on site and when I asked pretty please.. they gave me a tour of otherwise off limits to the public. It would make a great video for your channel...probably a multiple part video to do it justice! Look it up online and see if I'm pulling your leg...best part is admission is free! But they do appreciate donations which you can be sure that I contributed.

[@richardmorton1310]

Another great video Mr Pete. Really nice to hear of the scholarship in your brothers name.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@fredio54]

Lyle, it was actually your accent that originally attracted me to watching your videos some time ago. Your earlier vids have you sounding slower and calmer with a particular tone that I found soothing and relaxing. More recent ones are not quite like that, but that's okay. I was intrigued with your earlier sound and got my yank friends to guess where and they got pretty close. I pulled your exact address out of a vid a few months back to compare notes with them :-) Yes, you have an accent, however it's worth noting that there are hundreds of distinct accents in the UK, many of which are almost as incomprehensible as southern US ebonics. So depending on his level of education and breeding, he may or may not be one to judge :-)
