Great idea! Thanks.

I too sometimes feel endmills owe me money

I was wondering what happened to that project, i've looked and search all through the years of his youtube videos and could not find it either, a big shame(maybe his camera crapped out and he lost the footage) I prefer the build videos as my level is way below the need for some of the old measuring tools he has, whatever floats your boat i suppose.

A dessert island? Man if such a place exists I wanna go there!

It will happen...in a distant future. :D

Awesome Brian, Great to see another youtuber calling him out on this one. I have done it a few times to no effect. Been waiting patiently for probably 4-5 years now...

Is he going to make his own money with it?

Daniel S - Kitchen Machine Shop here in the united states the job shop mom n pop places rewuore machinists to have their own tools, but the higher budget places provide them. Especially in places that machine precipus metals as they have to go through a metal detector upon exiting.

I'm in the US an the only tools required for me are 6 in calipers and 0-1 mics

i had to buy my own cnc machines to be the machinist haha

In an ideal world you would be right. I have recently started work for a company( in the UK), that don't supply ANY tools, not even dial test indicators for the lathes.

@@1ginner1 Well, I said here in Europe, that's Brexit for ya I guess ;)

Lol, I use the plastic trays that mushrooms come in, and plastic take-away containers. And yes, margarine tubs!

I chortled because lately that's what I've been doing.

Smart ass, but true.

That's what I was thinking.

What does (Soddered) mean? (In the UK)

Gary Scoville: means someone is being facetious.

@@garyscoville7741 it's used as a low level insult or tease - silly sod, daft sod - a mild insult, but sod is short for sodomy so draw your own conclusions!

@@whitehoose I don't think so. I think it is a dig at different pronunciations for solder and aluminum. In the UK, they pronounce the L in solder and aluminum is both pronounced and spelled differently.

@Its true, we brits SOLder aluMINIum so a brit would call someone a silly sol or silly mini (because in that or any other context brits would never have encountered soddering so wouldn't (couldn't) adopt it). The nearest we have is sodding which is getting to be sodding rare in common speech. Silly sod is a standard (slightly antiquated) but still very familiar low level jibe. In the 60s your mum would say it, when you told a knock knock joke your dad would say it when you dropped an easy catch. your best mate (at 8 year old) would say it because it wasn't quite swearing (you yanks would probably say cussin') but sounded rude. (actually the sod in question is a lump if grass with earth attached .... it simply means you are as stupid as mud (similar to "thick as a brick"). As a brit of 64 years I'll probably now say "don't teach your grandma to suck eggs"! No one quite knows what it means but it fits with the brit english lesson from a yank(?) - If you think it's part of Tom's use of brit slang, we could agree and say Bob's your uncle.

Mencken!

I know that in Finland the L is pronounced in solder. Also the word salmon is pronounced with the L sound. I think this is so in other European countries.

Only in English-speaking elements

And what about smoldering? Holder? Just another proof that English pronunciation makes absolutely no sense. It is what it is, which also means it can be changed, and it does change, if enough people decide to pronounce any word which ever way it suits.

Milan Trcka the only example you have quoted here that does not sound the L is salmon which we pronounce "samon"lol All the other words you have quoted including solder, here in England we do pronounce the L so in fact salmon is the "Odd fish" lol!

or the "f" in rough.

Same in Denmark, green Lista cabinet og alike.

A typical trade related thing here is the "Gesellenstück" (literal translation: Journeyman piece) or "Meisterstück" (Masterpiece), mostly in crafts, less in industry. A piece done for an exam to demonstrate understanding of various techniques. It is usually prepared for the upcoming exam, but it depends on the trade if it is representative for the achievement. What counts is possession of the diploma.

This is the third time in two days that I've heard something positive about them.

Tom put the "orange gloves" on just for you Harold! 👍

Stefan is worth watching too.

You and I watch a lot of the same people.

Are you from California or key west? ;)

I do a lot of CAD design and do a bit of home machining. When calling out features that aren't dimensionally critical like fillets, I just put a two decimal value in parentheses like this, (0.13) to give an idea of about what I'm looking for without making it overly burdensome. And we work with shops that'll call us and ask for something different if needed. I've used "break all corners" before too.

Like the Professor on Gilligan's Island?

I just refurbished a Union style B-20 tool chest, it looks awesome...

Good idea my vac is back behind the mill and can be a pain.

The Christmas lights remote has the same current capabilities as the woodworking dust collector remote but a fraction of the price. For the smaller 15a units anyways. However, powering a contactor with the Christmas remote opens up the current carrying capacity to the sky... which is what I do! 30a contactor for a 3hp collector on a cheapo Noma Christmas remote.

Yes, magnet in the bottom of the first settling basin, put the magnet inside a balloon and it makes it that much easier to clean. Just turn the balloon inside out, instant swarf container...

Balloon? How about a zip loc bag!

you mean neodimoom?

Yeah, that was back when they still made typrwriters and calculators (ie Key).

If you talk to Richard and offer to come early and stay late to help setup, cleanup, pack up, ect. sometimes he will help you out with the price.

Yeah, that's nice and strai --- aaaahhhh! You stinker!

I never realized that Union was an English brand. We see them here in the US fairly commonly. I think uncle Abom has a old Union wood box. Thanks for the comment. Cheers. Tom

@@oxtoolco I think they are different companies or there was a british subsidiary of the USA union tool box company as the logo looks different, here is a link to a union chest on fleabay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/113977361432
