We continue with the heavy milling on the machinist vise for the tool box giveaway. I'll make use of a 3" roughing shell mill for the remainder of the heavy milling, plus show some finishing touches. Enjoy! Adam

I am guessing your mill maybe the same way. Perhaps it just needs cleaned and new grease as it has probably separated and degraded over time. Might just try greasing it with the proper grease first and run it awhile and see what happens.

+Abom79 Hey bud, just figured I'd share with you. You have talked different times in your vids about flood coolant and your Cool Mist system, which is pretty sweet. I just put together a flood coolant sytem for my Sharp mill. I ordered a 160GPH submersible aquarium pump, got it into a five gallon bucket behind the machine. Drilled and tapped the drains on the table of the machine. I got some 1/2" clear flexible PVC line from Lowes for drain hoses and screwed barbed pipe fittings into the drain lines on the table. I ran the hoses back into the bucket. I ordered a 1ft long piece of flex lock line with valve and nozzle from Amazon for 3 bucks. Mix up some coolant and you've got a flood system! This will work on any machine. By thw ay man, I freekin love the rotary welding table from the face plate. That build is f*****g PRISTINE!! Nice workman! Looking forward to your next vid.

Hey, I’m new here, just found you and subbed last week, been watching all your Videos when it’s slow “late at night/early in the morning “ at work. Love the videos, quality, and excellent work you do and you seem like a all around good man. I have a question for you if you don’t mind, and if you have the time to answer. Do you have a detailed shop tour of your own shop?! If so, I can’t find it. I have watched you do tours of several others and subbed to some new people that I didnt know about. But I like your style and quality of videos better than any other, so Im trying to find your tour man, cause I’m loving your shop and set up. I got an old bridge port from my GrandFather when he passed, so I’m learning and trying to practice all I can. It just hard to find the time with my job and my line of work, a lot of overtime, and of course family too. Sure you understand. But if You have a detailed tour of your shop, could you point me in the right direction please? And maybe if you have a video of all your tools too? Like I said can’t find them if you do. Thank You for your time and I’m sorry to bother.
