- This video shows a great method for holding and boring out extremely thin shims. When I say thin, I mean as thin as .001 thick. This proven method delivers exceptional results without distorting the OD of the material. Take a look.

This has GOT TO BE the most useful channel I have subscribed to as far as learning more about what I love!
I feel exactly as you
I've learned so much from watching Joe's videos and saved money using his techniques. Top man!
Clever workholding is the difference between making a profit and losing your ass on a job. Another "hell yes I'm gonna use that" page in the book of Joe Pi tricks. Thanks, mate!
Looking at all of your videos, I'd say you are teaching us how to think, not just how to machine. Thanks!
I appreciate that! I present a lot of theory that can be customized once you see it done.
Even if I never use this trick the way you work up methods like this aids us all to think outside the box and approach things in a different manner. Another superb video.
Another master class from a master at his craft. Thanks Joe
Feel sorry for the poor SOB that downvoted this. Thanks Joe
Currently sitting at 997 to 2. That's 1/5 of 1% rejection rate. I'm OK with that. I would like to know what they didn't approve of???
Joe, that's a brilliant method for boring extremely thin shims. Your methods are mind-ticklers. Thanks for sharing.
This is just what I needed. I have to make some thin shims. It's like you knew what I needed in my life.
I've decided. You're not an engineer, you're a magician. Thank you very much.
In the first part of the video I was wondering and trying to work out how you were going to do it. Really impressed with the lateral thinking and superb end result.
Glad you liked it!
WOW Real nice procedure. I wouldn't have thought of that one. You are a wealth of machining knowledge. Very nice of you to share this with all of us. Thank you. Dan
Shim material... $0.01
Jig material.... $2.00
Dowell pin.... $0.25
Experience..... Priceless... ;)
BTW. Cost per washer $10.00 lol
Hi Pierre. In a pinch, you'd gladly pay $10 each.
This is a fantastic example of thinking outside of the box. Thumbs up!
Glad you think so!
This technique pretty much blew my mind. Hopefully I'll remember it when I need it.
Old video, Timeless, Flawless information ! Absolute pleasure to watch a Master work at his craft.
Joe Pie, you Sir, are appreciated more than you know ! Thank You !
Fantastic Joe... Thank you for your teaching. I am a retired scientific glassblower and I am now learning proper techniques of using an engineering lathe... Thank you for your marvellous videos.
Thanks for watching.
brilliant as always ,I see you used a small bit to cut down on the forces applied to the part and went in slowly to cut down on warping ,now that's outstanding work and out of the box thinking that we all need to see and understand thanks for taking the time to show us.
Joe's one of the few utube machining gods.
Thank you for the support.
I wouldn't have even tried that till you showed us how. I love your videos Joe, and I love how willing you are to share your skills, experience, and expert techniques. Thank You!
It’s an honor to watch a Master at work. Thanks for another great lesson.
Elliot Lake Ontario Canada. Nice method Joe only wish I had found this sooner. Enjoyed watching it all come together thanks for sharing.
To the guy an old guy can still learn a lot. Enjoyed as always.
As always I am so grateful that you do these videos. Clear, concise, to the point and “full on” educational. Thank you, thank you and thank you...... Please keep making these videos.
Thanks for the comment. It fuels the fire.

Great stuff as always Joe, thanks!
Excellent tip, Thanks for sharing Joe
So so simple and yet so so clever. Thanks Joe. I've learnt some great stuff on your channel.
I always learn something great from your videos.
Ingenious, as always. Thanks for taking the time and effort to pass on all of your tips and tricks.
Your are the master of crafty machining
What a great tip. Thanks Joe!
Excellent trick, Joe, thank you.
BRILLIANT! Very nicely done and thanks for sharing!
Cool. Another solution to a problem I don't yet have! I know that I will use this somewhere in the future. Thanks for the great demo.
Great tip Joe just What I needed
once again a masterful display by the master . love your video's Joe . :)
Awesome technique and video Joe! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Learn something new every day! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Great idea I am going to use this for sure. Thanks for the info.
Bob
Great idea. Will definitely try it next time I need some thin shims.
once again, it is knowing the tricks! Learned something new again. Thanks joe!
Well now. A genuinely elegant and relatively simple setup that clearly works. My own background as a git-er-dun truck mechanic in a general duty repair shop absolutely does not require the same degree of precision as a machinist automatically thinks in,based on his training and approach . My own thought would have been to walk over to the bench with all our soldering doodads,actually tin with 95/5,then probably 30/70 on top for better strength. Solder the parts together with our old kerosene blowtorch,solder properly applied has great holding force,cut the now cylinder to appropriate diameters,then unsolder and so what the washers are a little thicker,the tin etc will help hold a nut from vibration. Now that will NOT work on aluminum tinfoil,but sheets of different thicknesses are generally available from truck brake supply houses so unless aluminum is a known requirement,doneskis. Shim stock is incredibly useful in a whole host of applications,so various remainders are sorted through to choose from. Yours is I think a better approach,no major heat and may very well take less time than my approach.
No doubt there are other ways to the same end product,precision tools like a lathe are a luxury in my world but possibly one of the old brake drum lathes could be adapted. Whatever works. Cheers.
very good joe ....love all your videos .....and do not get rid of your little hammer you used for pin ,its great for gasket making ..keep up the great work joe.
Nicely done JP-
Absolutely fantastic demonstration. I love these videos showing how to deal with situations that may not often be encountered. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and ingenuity. Cheers!
You really come up with some brilliant ideas
Joe, once again. Just pretty darn neat.
Hi Joe, good tip. I love all these tips, some I have used, some in the future. I think this is what makes one machinist stand out from another, the ability to come up with a great idea, and share it! Thanks!!
Sweet. I learn something good/useful every day. Thank you Joe.
Great technique. Thanks for sharing.
I find your topics really helpful. Very useful. I am from Johannesburg South Africa.
Joe Ur a great amazing piece of a Mastermind! awesome job. U will give a very good mentor for all of us keep it Up!!!
I am so glad i found your channel(and that you do videos) I know I've said this more than once over the last year plus, but they are just so insightful. I've been trying to learn machining for a while and your tips and trick are so helpful and amazing... Thanks for all the great content... Take it easy...
Joe, just subscribed to your channel. You're a natural teacher -- from your "chalk talk" on the white board to your demo presentation. I'll be looking for all your future videos.
Thank you.
Excellent as always!
Thanks Joe! You are truly the Master of work holding.
Just used this trick for some pinion shims for an odd ball axle. Worked great. Thanks a million Joe.
Awesome technique i already used the pressure turning to make shims which worked brilliantly love the videos keep them coming
Another inspired trick Joe - to add to the list of great stuff you have shown us - if only I can remember it all!
I've used a similar process for making OS engine gaskets except I ran them on my CNC mill. This was a great job Joe, my hat's off to you sir. Fine work.
Thanks for posting. This is a very clever way to hold shims!
I must be getting to know you Joe. Every mental question that I was asking was answered by you a few seconds later. Another great technique. Thanks.
Dang Joe, that was Awesome!
Great idea. Just learned another trick. THANKS!
Always amazed. You are a genius.
Another ceative work holding solution. I appreciate how accessible your techniques are to the hobby machinist.
Very nice, why didnt I think of that. Joe you have a very mechanical mind
Simple and highly functional. Nice tip, as per the usual.
Solves a problem I had.
Thanks,
John
HI Joe- great hints for tough jobs as usual . thanks
I could not afford the time or cost of a mishap on those parts. This was a very safe option.
Awesome as always...
I like that idea! I need to make thin spacers and have turned down washer o.d. by bolting them together and chucking up the bolt.
Now, thanks to you, I know how to increase the i.d. Thanks!
Joe, I really enjoy your videos. More importantly your ideas are just outstanding, including this one! Thanks for the information. Just a note, I have switched to a left handed threading tool, mounted it up side down, reversed the direction of spin on the lathe, and run my threading from left to right. Another great idea I picked up from your video. Thanks!
Super useful lesson, once again thank you.
Yet again another great video from the master. Many thanks
Joe , your the true meaning of. If you can't fix it well then it isn't broke. Your a true master at your trade. Love your videos and you always leave us thinking.
thx joe ur wealth of knowlage is amazing, thank you for making it easy for a simpleton like me
Glad you enjoy it!
Absolutely an amazing tip you just have demonstrated Sir! I aplaud your teaching skills, your knowledge and your emeritous camera taking skills!!! Thank you for posting.
Thanks for watching.
Beautifully done, great to watch....thanks
I learned something today Joe thank you!!
Thank you. I keep having to purchase what's not exactly the I.D. and/or O.D. that I want from McMaster. Now I can make the right size in house. Thank you again. And I guess I got to say thank you CZcams for making it possible for me to learn from this master and many others that I have watched on CZcams. Thank you all...
Great stuff Joe .
Joe-
Elegant solution to an interesting problem, as we have come to expect from you.
Many, many thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Bill
Glad to help.
Nice little cutter on the boring bar. Looks like that method works for paper gaskets too. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing your immense practical knowledge so profusely it is extremely useful
My pleasure!
Hi Joe, on one of your earlier videos I just watched you asked those who comment to let you know where we are from. I am from the State of Queensland in Australia. Machining is a hobby. (I have completed a lathe course part-time - two evening a week over two years, as well as other mechanical oriented courses to enable me to get the most out of my gear. So I find your topics really helpful. You also asked if you should include the mathematical calculations behind the techniques you are showing. For me, yes please. The mathematics adds to the richness of the topic and for me (as I once worked in calculations and computing) I can more quickly see where you are going on the topic. Very pleased I found your channel. Thankyou (Your firm does some very interesting and highly technical quality work).
I learn a so much from your videos and really enjoy watching them, thank you.
I appreciate you watching.
Awesome Joe, thank you for sharing
That idea will come in very useful, thanks!
I wish we could leave multiple "thumbs up" for your videos... just clicking it once doesnt feel adequate. Thanks again for sharing this knowledge and techniques!
Very cool Joe! Thanks for sharing.
A great tip to file away for just in case, thanks Joe.
Excellent tip, Thanks Joe
You have some creative solutions for different problems. I like that 👍🏻. Usualy I would setup a punch die for this.
one word comes to mind, RESPECT !
