    Refreshing to see as so many believe that CNC is the only way to make things these days.
    Well done sir 🤝

  • @charliebaileyandloganberry7557

    Again mate, this blew me away. You have a very mechanically inclined creative mind, just to imagine this from a shell, and the execution was spot on as always! Though unconventional at times, it appeared that every tool used during fabrication was made for the sole purpose it was used.
    Great, great work buddy. I again leave almost 💯 awestruck, completely bewildered ... yet already looking forward to my next trip to your video vault. L)

    I especially liked the brass medium. I can't remember any CZcams video that was totally brass and very primitive or man made tools. Excellent. This is called from WW1, ship art or trench art. I've seen ash trays made from the base of a 105mm shell or candle holders from .50cal brass bolted to the base of a 40mm anti-aircraft round usually inscribed with a geographical location and date concerning some unit or event during WW1 or WW2 or Korea. Vietnam folks would taken a broken hack saw blade an inscribe unit designation, dates in cou try on one side and 'Vietnam' on the other on Zippo lighter. Again, great video.

    The ingenuity of CZcams builders and makers has been the reason I spend numerous hours every week watch YTs. I thought I had tapped the reservoir of originality to its bottom. Then, this morning I found your YT making a steel bow. It was an easy decision to subscribe, of course. And my respect increased when I watch you make the wee small gladiolus. (The person lucky enough to be skewered by that blade should feel honoured, indeed.) But now, this YT has dropped my jaw even further. You built a ball mill from a 1 liter plastic water bottle and cut up some random bits of aluminum as media. You are not a YT builder. You are not a YT maker. You are a YT creator.
    Thank you for taking the time to share your genius and your deeply innate creativity and skills.
