Bob was, in fact, my uncle. He taught machine shop in Oregon at the junior college level for years. Thanks for remembering him.

That's some good looking dog meat. Spoiling them dogs over there. Superb workmanship. Love this stuff like the baby Wilton vice, so please keep it coming.

I haven’t heard the saying BOSS which means cool and tough since I was a kid in the 60s 🤪👍🏻✨ my father was a machinist from 1953 to 1996 he worked for Eagle electric manufacturing company in Long Island city New York. That’s one beautiful ball vase my friend😌✌🏻

Good work! Thanks for video from Ukrainian chipmaker!

Good video. Lots of different tools and ops. Thanks for sharing.

I am a retired jig and toolmaker and I still love watching someone work who really takes a pleasure in workshop engineering

Once again nice hands on work . 👍👍👍

Function and form....nice! Thanks for the video.

I love the building of small tools!

I can't say there was a dog involved , Looks sweet .. Works great ! ENJOYED Tom ..

Once again I have to thank you for reminding an old "instrument maker" how much satisfaction he got out of making impatient academics wait a few more moments for some made on the fly part or repair as he filed off the sharp edges or just made the the thing "look" better. I used to help people make very small versions of this kind of clamp that they used to position electrodes. Thanks Tom!

This so much more hands on and old school . How we used to do it before CNC . Still quicker for one off jobs .

Justa Dam Fine Video ! I Tend To Like This Kind Of ( So Called ) Simple Project As I'm Not A Machinist ! Just Now Watched It For A Second Time ! Great .

a nice little job and good to see you back!

I'm a simple man. I see Tom making a really elegant solution and doing it well, for all of us to follow along, and I upvote.

Most excellent Tom! Satisfies all the requirements of quick and dirty. ATB, Robin

Like it? Love it Tom! Who doesn't like watching a master tool maker at work? Well done.

the whispered "ah yeah" at 26:24 made me smile. Enjoying your craft is what it's all about.

I really enjoyed that Tom. Quick easy and nice. Most of the time those don't go hand and hand. Well done! On the list.

That's a great looking "little" project. I like it. I bet that I'm not the first to suggest a trailer hitch ball.

Love how you can make things look so easy, when I am used to having to cobble everything for lack of tooling. Always wanted to do machinist work but everyone wanted 5 years experience and there were no schools in my area. Became an aircraft mechanic from farm work, stumbled into a job for a place that had agricultural helicopters, apprenticeship got me the transition training to take FAA testing. Now retired, but still have the longing to make things and tools. Really appreciate your detailed videos.

Lots of nifty tips delivered with this edition. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. These are the You Tube videos I enjoy the most.

Quote "leave it in the comments if you like this kind of stuff" Definately yes, love watching you design and build intricate pieces of work.

Love your videos. Wish you and Robin did many more. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to these.

Glad to have you sharing your knowledge Tom. Great little build.

Love it! Really enjoyable to watch. Also the sort of thing I enjoy building on the weekends.

Very nice Tom. Nice idea.

What a nice surprise at the end to see one of my "go fast" heroes! Great work Tom.

Great project. I've always enjoyed your shop improvement videos.

The simple projects are fun to watch. Nice job!!

Definitely like this kinda stuff!! Great to see you building another work of art

English, overbroncing, wailing! Such descriptive engineering terms. Love it.

Great job Tom, quick and simple! Thanks

Great job Tom... I've been following your posts for years... thank you for creating such great content. Keep 'em coming!!

Excellent video. I love all your project videos!

what an amazing build! True craftsmanship!

Another great video Tom! Love the design, handwork involved and time you took to share it with us. 👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks Tom, I do like the small projects. Thanks for sharing!

06:15 Man! you are just killing it with that cutter sound. thanks for video.

Great design and a nice build😀

That's a great project! I'd love to see more of those. Thanks for sharing :)

Great idea. I have something similar that attaches to the bed of my wood lathe. Thanks for the video. You do a great job explaining everything that you do and easy to follow.

It's great to see a project that uses every tool in the shop, including the files. The attention to detail is awesome. As a licensed electrician I know it's the attention to detail that make us "skilled" at our trade. Hat's off to you, sir.

Very nice. I really enjoy these types of projects when you do them. Thanks!

Your Dogmeat would make a great addition to any shop, Very well done Tom!

Thanks for the video. I love seeing useful projects for the shop and I have just the perfect use for this one.

That was a perfect little project and something I think we could all use, thanks!

Another cool and well executed OxTool project. Thanks, Tom. Cheers, Gary

Another excellent project from the Master Craftsman. Thanks for the video.

I saw an ox tools video pop up In my notifications and had to go make sure the world was still turning, i live for this kind of content. Awesome build man...some day when my rich uncle (bob) gets out of the poor house im gonna have myself a little miniature machine shop...

A nice little project of something I didn't know I needed until you showed me! Thanks, and please do more like this. The other, in-depth theoretical stuff is great as well... just like technical school without any tuition!

Really nice ... tripped on your channel after my own South Bend lathe rebuild. Love this.

Another cool build. Nice work, Tom.

We absolutely do like this kind of stuff. Nice video, Tom.

Good job ! I enjoyed this build and I'm impressed ! Thanks for making the video

Yes more projects please, it's been a while and you are a wonderful craftsman. Tool talk is cool but nice to see them in action. Thanks

Thanks for consistently delivering great content.

Tom that was beautiful craftsmanship; simplicity in design, and masterfully executed. I love it!

Excellent video Tom, thank you !

Thank you Tom. I have been needing that. I can use to weld the compound angles of boat propellers and YET be very strong. Great for all types of welding jobs....what a great idea. -Tom

Very enlightening,love this kind of stuff. Machine heaven!

Great build! I love the hand work you do on your projects. My Dad was a machinist for RJR from the mid 50's until the late 80's he ran a ginormous radial drill press, this reminds me of how he used to build things. Great video I appreciate your channel

Thank you Mr. Wizard. This is a great project that I'm excited to copy. I've been envious of your little vice mount, and now I can have my own. I hope you get back to making more videos too. Missing my meatloaf.

This is a brilliant idea. I'm putting this on my to make list. Thanks for sharing

Nice job Tom, slick design.

Wow! Awesome build, keep the projects coming, thx

very useful and very fine craftsmanship. I love to watch you do your thing and your unpretentious way of going about it.

Nice build Tom! Looks purdy!!

Hey Tom, nice demonstration on the finish filing, this is something that takes time and patience to learn properly and the visual demonstration shows the steps of your technique. It would have been great to have a mentor like you in my youth! Cheers!

Brilliant, simple and elegant design. Lipton rules!!!

Nice....!!!! my bucket list keeps growing Tom.

Excellent video, Mr. Ox, thank you.

The edge marking trick - awesome!

Beautiful piece...great job!

Talent + patience = artistry; seriously well done!

I need one and now I can make one. Thank you so much! Very satisfying to watch. 👍👍👍

Really neat and outstanding work as usual. Thanks for sharing.

I do like this kind of stuff, original builds are always entertaining and educational, especially when it is not "Bob's your uncle" and your have to work through a mid build challenge on the fly.

+1 Jeff Cowan It's all the parts of the design that you don't talk about that make it stand out. Thank you, Tom, again. Jaime Blue Mountains, Australia

Beautiful work!

Awesome Tom! Thanks for sharing your Time and Many Talents. All the best. Chuck

LOVE seeing your project videos! The meatloaf is cool, and you better believe I'll continue to watch them, but I feel in love with your channel WAY back because of the awesome projects. Keep 'em coming if you can!

Really enjoyed this video, I'm going to make myself one of these cool ball swivel stands !!!

G’day Tom, top idea for the workshop, now I know what I’ll do with my spare towball. Cheers Peter

Great job, Tom. Looks nice and wery useful device.

Nice job Tom simple and easy

Elegantly simple design, I really like it. Thanks for sharing.

Very cool project and enjoyable to see!

Absolutely love this type of video /project! Keep it up!

We LOVE this kind of stuff... thanks for sharing such a wonderful """little""" project!!! :)

It's an information-packed and interesting video. Thanks.

Love the way the back jaw moves very nice vice

Nice little project and please do more like it.

I'm totally obsessed with your channel, all your videos are interesting!

That is a beauty! Now you need to make a custom vise for the top! of the ball!

Now this guy is what's known as a craftsman...

Just when I started to think that I had design skills! lol Brilliant job, sir. Well done and thank you for sharing.

Absolutely wonderful craftsmanship at its very best!!, found your channel during short breaks in a night shift as an E.R./M.D. That exquisite work looks at least as precise / artistic as producing the finest jewelry!!. I don't need to mention the VERY high respect and admiration for you Tom, as well as for other dedicated and creative machinists & tool makers. Of course I've subbed!. Many thanks for sharing & God Bless!!

Very cool!! Came out sweet thanks for sharing!.

That's a beautiful thing you made there Tom. Love it. Happy New year to you buddy.
