That mannequin? is truly disturbing and very detailed, must have taken a long time to make, now he's just sitting around a 2nd hand shop scaring the 💩 out of 80 year olds. Thanks for all I learned today from you Mr Pete.

One of these days Mrs. Pete is going to start watching these videos and look out! Dog house for you!

I'm currently on vacation, and it's great to have Mr Pete video to watch with my coffee every morning. Love your vids Mr Pete, thanks for always taking the time to teach, and share your world with us.

I have learned more about the different manufacturers of tools and their history from you than I ever imagined. Glad that you have had a lifetime of curiosity.

That wooden mallet is a work of art!

Like you, I've amassed many tools over the years.. my recent move/downsize had me sorting out all my duplicates... I didn't realize until then that I had been living a life where I thought it was my obligation to the world to rescue quality tools from a potential horrific fate. I think you might have the same 'condition', but it seems like you're managing it better than I did.. So keep doing what you like to do! Enjoy! Thanks for sharing your passion with us!

That radius cutting tool is nice. Enjoyed this one. Thanks Lyle.

I had to rewind to Jordan’s doe still. When I first read it, I thought the bow shot was 300 yards. Great video keep them coming.

Thanks for the video. Always a joy to watch. Sorry for you friend passing.

Just to put you out of your suspense Mr Pete, you did manage to free up those micrometers and put up a video. I believe you used Mare's urine 😄 (also I remember you showing off that oil can probably not long after you received it - a simple but ingenious, useful gift)

I've watched every trainman4602 video thanks to your oilcan video, even Dave's cooking episodes.

Right! she's the one that is grounded, can't fool us.

I really enjoyed the picture of you and your wife. That was fun!

Breaking wrench’s. My 1st job out of high school was driving and washing busses at a school bus company. Some one borrowed one of the mechanics Snap On combination wrenches and sprung the open end. Snap On wouldn’t warranty it because it was abused. The mechanic spent at least an hour of company time grinding an oversized bolt head to a taper and hammering the box end onto it to beak it and get it warranted!

Your friend Palmer is an amazing artisan, his saw horses are beautifully crafted. Wow!

My wife said that as long as you have been married that you should have checked the Walmart felt stock supply before you sent her on an errand otherwise you get what you get.😂

Love the Flash cards!! great teaching tool!!! Keep up the great work!

I just learned what a Rose Index is. Flooring installers don't know everything. 😁 I love your videos. I wish you were my shop teacher in 1974 and 75

The plomb/proto wrench is very cool! A piece of history! I bet they made them like that for only a short time!

Thanks Mr. Pete for the video. I was actually working in Milwaukee on business the day the Big Blue crane collapsed

I am laughing. You warned about hot chips hitting you on the lip. Guess what happened today? I got hit on the top lip by a tiny hot chip. It blistered, and is now raw, and annoying. Thank you, Pete, for all that you do on this channel.

Thank you Mr. Pete.

Palmer gave me a set of saw horses also. What you didn't mention is that he did all the mortices and tendons on a CNC router that he built from scratch! Absolutely brilliant! He showed me the evolution of the saw horse design. Your set is different from mine.

"Glued to the Screen" With this Video. Very good Lyle.... Thanks Much.. Mike M.

I cannot read the micrometers now without strong glasses, I guess being 74 means I am getting older.😊 The man who dies with the most tools WINS.

You have to be working on some pretty large fasteners for wrench failure to occur. A 3/8 bolt will snap long before you break a 9/16 wrench.

Trainman R.I.P. You're a good man MrPete..✌

"Taking a dirt nap," that's funny never heard that one!

Lyle, I thought the mannequin was a guy dressed up and I probably would have punched him. I had to leave this note telling you that You, Abom and a young Aussie guy called Artisan Crafts all do above and beyond the call of duty with your respective videos. If you ever think there is neither demand for nor enjoyment in your videos, you could not be more wrong. I see amongst the young guys there is a solid demand to know mechanical things. They are not given this knowledge as part of their general school education as we were. When I think of the level of latitude we were given with lathes, milling machines and shapers at age twelve and the "secret projects" we undertook at lunchtimes (all manner of weapons) and yet I cannot remember any harm done to any child during those school years. We live in nanny state times my friend. Cheers to you and a very Merry Christmas to you and yours. Allan

Can’t wait to see that breakage vid Pete ! Great stuff as always Sir

We saw Moses at the Sight N Sound theater in Lancaster PA. 😀 The theater was the most amazing place and the show was so great, I wish I lived closer, but I am too far away in Ohio to go regularly. ☹️

Thanks for another interesting video. I love my Emmert turtleback.

Thank you for posting. I too really enjoyed Dave Sclavi’s work. I remember your video when you got that oil can. I miss his videos. Don’t you punt anytime soon.

Good stuff Mr. Pete ... Enjoyed

Back in the day, it was a joke with IBM employees that those three letters mean I've Been Moved, because they moved people around quite a bit.

Sucks I can't give more than one thumbs up. Those flash cards are great.

Boy those saw horses are too nice to use! They could be stained and be used as fine furniture! 😀👍😀

Thanks Mr Pete

Hello Lyle. I have a wooden boxed set of Mitatoyo 0-4" Michrometers. The foam in the box turned into dust and went everywhere. The location insert was fine, but piece in the bottom and lid was gone. I have since replaced them with new foam.

Thanks again

Those are some dandy saw horses! Sort of like that hammer, too nice to use.

The severace rod end tool reminds me of the job im doing now. Putting 5/16 tenons on 1/2" round bar. 260 of them. Iused a 5/8" roto broach, or slugger bit in the tailstock, instead of normally turning them. They took about 5 seconds each. Found the correct bit kinda by luck, because the inner diameter is not mentioned. Thanks for your video efforts!!!

The This and That episodes are my favorite I think. Keep it up!

Your videos are fantastic I wish I had you as a high school metal shop went to the Catholic high but always liked industrial arts we missed the boat on this however been following you for years and get a lot of knowledge from these videos thanks!

I have never had anything destroyed by US Mail. I live in Canada Canada post has destroyed a third of my packages.

Thanks Pete!!

Neat video! I used to see a radius cutter, must've been at work. Now I know what it was! The magnetic properties would drive me coo-coo tho. Into the Weller solder gun you go!

yes ...... thx

Nice Deer!

HAHAHAHA @ the doctor. I hope some of my previous doctors now look like that.

I'm sorry to hear of Trainman's passing. I have watched some of his videos and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I've heard him speak highly of your Mr. Pete. A second hand store that has tools??? 😮 I thought they were just for women's clothes, baby toys, and broken sports equipment. Oh yeah, here that's all they are.

Loved this video! Chocked full of great information.

Did you feel the earthquake at 4:41 this morning? It looks like the epicenter was very close to where you live. I hope all is well with you.

That is so cool that you got to meet up with Taryl from the Taryl Fixes All KZfaq Channel. I got a chuckle as that photo came up. Pretty cool !!!

@mrpete222 - I did see that Emmert vise and was shocked you missed it, guessing it went somewhat reasonable if other items sell price is any indication... Would love to know what it sold for that day since as you know they are scarce "out in the wild and usually carry a pretty big price tag! Thank you for your wonderful videos - many, many of us appreciate the time, effort an energy you put into them.

I would love a set of those saw horses! Fantastic!

you sir are a kindred spirit, I wish I could had you as a shop teacher!

those flash cards are awesome....

Nice to See and Hear you again Lyle. It's always a great thing.

Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.

You should also show videos fro projects that dail. Often there is much to be learned from things that fo NOT work.

I had the pleasure of seeing the “Queen Esther” presentation at Sight & Sound Theater in Branson earlier this year. It is as you describe. The scenery is fantastic and the performance itself is inspiring. Could you figure out how much of the audio was live (as opposed to recorded)? Live or otherwise it was extremely well-done and certainly worth seeing.

Hey Mr. Pete, go through that box of goodies thoroughly before handing it off to Henry, One of those "Flashlights" looks to be a stun gun...

Nice collection of this and that. Sorry to hear about David, I like his channel.

Thanks Mr Pete. I saw a slide-hammer dent puller. Didn’t see the photo of Mrs Pete & you ????

We went to Queen Ester a couple weeks a go very good

Sorry to hear about Dave. I grew up in Trenton. He was too young to go...

Good to see those IBM tools my dad his father and an uncle and one of his sons were IBM'ers

Im from Flint MI, and have been to old Tiger stadium alot etc...I went to a Brewers game in Milwaukee the last year the old ball park had games. That "old ballpark" was in fantastic shape compared to old Tiger stadium ,it was immaculate ( tiger stadium was only 10 yrs older) condition and in my opinion there was no reason to tear down the old brewers field for a new field. When I hear of the new brewers stadium I always think of that beautiful old brewers stadium and think , why did they have to tear the old one down!

People just send these amazing tools ! Wow 🤯 I need to start a KZfaq channel ! I’m too broke to buy em, maybe I get some folks to send me them ! Lol 😂 Couldn’t have been sent to a more deserving person ! Love ya Mr Pete ! 😊

Great video.Thank you,mrpete

RIP Trainman. Thanks for the wrap up. It would have been great to get that Emmert vice.

Well, I'm looking forward to that 'What is it?'. I have an identical set of those IBM tools. Except mind don't say IBM. Most are Dreusicke and one (a pair of those 'nippers') is Starret.

I've never seen a Starrett Mic. shaft get stuck, I've seen many with galled threads. It was a major problem in the 80's and 90's.

Time to give your neighbor's horse a drink. I've heard Mare's urine will free up those stuck micrometers.

Good ol Trainman.

Thanks Mr Pete 🖖

Thank You Lyle.... OK, you say never to store your micrometers fully closed. When you purchase a new one it is closed (and who knows how long it is stored before it is sold. Also decades ago I have sent a micrometer in for adjustment and it arrived back closed. But you say never leave the micrometer fully closed ?.....TM

Nice video. Our local post office lost a check that was sent to them to pay our p o box rent, how ironic is that. 3 months later they found it. What can I say.

@12:42 you show a combination wrench. You called it a 7/16" but I noticed the box end is indeed a 7/16" but the open end is 1/2". I have never seen a combination wrench that has different sizes on each end.

I love the flash cards! You should auction them.

Not seen those bar end radius tools before... Would have been very useful at times across the years..... Been searching to buy some, no luck so far 😢

A bunch of IBM typewriter adjustment and repair tools.

Awsome!

Taking a dirt nap …. lol. 😂

Sight and Sound is also in Strasburg PA, and is the main location of their offices. They rotate their sets around so that they can offer a variety, unlike Hollyweird movies at the box office.

A radial drill press would be a useful tool for making palmer style saw horses. I bought an incomplete one at a scrap yard a number of years ago, and I plan to replicate the base that is now missing. The rest of it is there, minus the motor. It was made in Lancaster Pennsylvania, possibly by Dewalt.

That's too bad about Trainman, I have watched several of his videos. Very good machinist.

Didn't bring home the felt and then almost threw away the flash cards, this calls for a time out in the corner AND a grounding. Shows who wears the pants!

“…grounded your wife” So how’d that work out for ya Lyle? 😂😂 btw it’s Doc Severensen

Wright tools are still made in Barberton Ohio! Very pricey!!!

Yes, I had a blue chip on the lip the other day.

Green Bay Manufacturing has great deals on leads screws.

How was the joint between the head and shaft of that lovely mallet made? There is a dovetail on each side, but it doesn't look as though the shaft is in two pieces.

Lyle, you are correct that Black and Decker owns Proto. Also Armstrong is owned by Snapon.

Did you start out as Boaz ? Steve

So far as postal rants...card shaped envelopes may well be targeted in mail stream, internally. Regretful!

Yes, Proto is owned by Stanley. AL.

RIP Trainman.

That hammer wood looks like Brazilian IPE (pronounced E-pay) or Cumaru. Very hard & heavy and expensive. edit 20:10
