And down the rabbit hole we go. The more things like this I see, the more I realize how little I know. 🙏🏼 Good stuff!!

Very interesting. Pattern making and casting are both very steep learning curves. A combination of skill, knowledge and some black art. Well done.

I love it!!!! I build string instruments and small planes are a passion. To see them being made is so fun.

That was fun to watch. I'm a mechanical engineering by schooling and I enjoyed my manufacturing processes class. We did some casting and some forging in the lab. Both would have been a fun career choice for me as I like making things with my hands.

I wish I would have started do this about 20 years ago.

There is an issue with the audio starting about 8:20 But awesome.

I’m going to reload the video and see if that fixes the issue.

Wow! Am I allowed to say "this is ancient tech and yet hypnotizingly sexy"

@DaveCorinth 6 ай бұрын

It is indeed ancient tech compared to todays CNC operated machines. Not much different to how these were made 100 years ago.

Very interesting process! How long does it take you to make a new product?

@DaveCorinth 6 ай бұрын

Not including the time it takes to let the castings cool or paint and lacquer to dry, about 4 hours from start to finish.

Amazing video! Shame the audio was none existant for the last min or two. Felt like you were talking about the casting.... lol

@DaveCorinth 6 ай бұрын

I’m going to reload the video and see if that fixes the audio issue. The last segment discusses machining.

Wow, nice job! Have you tried to cast bronze or only brass?

@DaveCorinth 5 ай бұрын

I have cast a few in bronze, but most are brass. I have a lot more brass on hand than bronze. When I make them in bronze I have to cast the screw cap as well. It looks funny with a body in bronze and a cap in brass.

Looks really well done Dave, excellent explanation of draft and fillets. Quick question about how oversized the casting is over the machined final plane body, the casting looks substantially heavier than the finished plane. I look forward to the next video in the series.

@DaveCorinth 6 ай бұрын

Indeed the casting a bit oversized. However the pane cast and the one shown completed are a different pattern. This was explained in the last part that ended up not having any sound. I’m going to reload the video and see if that fixes the audio issue.

Re: "I don't want to make a 45-minute video" The people who consume this kind of content *love* those long videos. Don't sweat the video length. PS: That "dental pick" is clearly a dabber lmao.

@DaveCorinth 6 ай бұрын

I will certainly keep that in mind. Thank you, I’m one of those that can watch an hour of someone making something. Lol
