Wow thanks for the tour. You’ve clearly worked really hard

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Its been 20+ years and counting. Thanks!

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

The bin system of keeping track of stock is really ingenious. From the stand point of needing something...you know just where to look. No digging.......leave the digging for the gardeners.

[@beastlybombers]

Love your shop. Wonderful. Keep up the great work.

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Thank you!

[@geewillikers5342]

Beautiful setup! - the guy who sold you the Hardinge dividing head

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Thank you! Cool, that head is still on the bench untouched yet.

[@gwheyduke]

Wow! That shop is a dream. I really need one of those aircraft carrier desks!. I was wondering if, you acquired most of your lathes and mills used? I've priced out some machines that I need, only to back off due to the price and shipping. BTW stumbled onto your channel while researching the Ironworker !

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Yes most of the machines we have were found used. I find it allot of fun to look for a great deal on the used market. Not to say I have never been burned but the wins far outweigh the losses. New equipment is great if you are confident you have tons of work for it.

[@VanoverMachineAndRepair]

Great video. Are you guys a job shop or do you produce abs sell products, or both. How long did it take to get this shop set up. I.e. how long you been in that shop.

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Thank you! Prototype and small production shop as well as sculpture and short production of our own products here and there. We have been at the current space about 3 years but the collection of tools and machines started back about 2001.

[@HM-Projects]

Do you work alone or with others in the shop ? and what's your usual process for planning when you get a job ?

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Often alone but have a group of friends that help out when I over book projects.

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Maybe we will do a video on project planning but that is a big subject that is hard to summarize. Most of our work is rush so being as prepared for anything at any time is where we shine.

[@HM-Projects]

@@TigermothRacingTV thanks, that might be helpful and informative for noobs like me

[@funone8716]

Holy crap what a mess. Looks like my shop. ;p

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Lol, its a constant work in progress. We need to do an update soon because our shop has changed so much.

[@funone8716]

@@TigermothRacingTV I think you have a passion for industrial equipment as I do. I have found it can be easier to acquire projects than complete them in a timely manner. Sometimes working on machines is more fun that doing work with machines, which can get boring. I feel lucky with the deals I've gotten. Looks like you've gotten some great ones as well. Would love to see more vids from this channel!

[@alexjack9603]

Are you by any chance the same person behind the LCG V10 rc?

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Yes✔ I still fantasize about getting an updated version of that car back on the market.

[@alexjack9603]

@@TigermothRacingTV do you by any chance have any parts for the car left

[@armindapereira4433]

Shop is getting small!

[@TigermothRacingTV]

Lol, because of too much stuff? Allot has changed in the last 2 years, it was hard back then, the shop looks completely different now, we need to do an update.
