Big Respect for how you handle sponsoring and not making your channel an constant advertisement.
Quinn says she's "not a real machinist," yet is a realer machinist than a lot of the people who say they are machinists.
Ain't that the truth! Man, some of the folks I've worked with aren't worth a fraction of a Quinn.
Electronic skills are pretty amazing as well
I know 3 Machinist that have over 30 years a piece, they watch your videos all the time and recommend them
Yes but in general anyone who has a vision and then builds successfully a thing with a machine is a machinist.
Real machinists are time served apprentices, otherwise whats the point of the long sacrifice to get your indentures.
I think I speak for many out there as we would like you to keep your posting record in tact. We will be happy to see a five minute video of you sweeping the floor if that's what it takes 😁
Looking forward to the paint dry and floor sweep vids.
Cheers
Come to say that also. :D Yeah just short shots of progress or even some setting up videos would be great also.
Actually, I'd love a video on how to level and square machines after a big move. And how to do the "big" periodic maintenance tasks that you only get around to once a year (or when unpacking equipment after a move)
@@michaelandersen7535 yes!
When the time comes to machine titanium, just remember that the chips will be crazy flamable (like magnesium). It will burn faster in water than in air. Only a class D extinguisher will work. Ask your local fire department for training.
Great tip Thanks
I have seen titanium burn. The dust will ignite just from pressure such as if someone walks on it.
I have ignited it 3 times on the lathe at work. SFM is critical.
Quinn - I'm glad to see that you and Sprocket are gracefully settling into your new space. I know from experience that moves are extremely disruptive, and I've never moved more than a few dozen miles, nor over an international border. I wondered how you could keep your YT channel going during the move, and I will certainly understand if you occasionally miss your goal of posting a new video every week. Honestly, I don't know how you've been able to do it for 4 years straight. All the best!
Love the videos. Suggest gluing foam on garage door.
Always appreciate your videos. It's pretty clear that your a fairly private person, that being said it was cool to here your reason for moving as well as what the endeavor cost you. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see what a little more space might bring for you.
"a theme park for long division ..." And yet another reason why we love Quinn.
Free pocket protector to the first 500 visitors
Less fun than it sounds
every irrational visitor gets a slide rule!
..i'd prefer a park i could take my imaginary friends and numbers!
Quinn, while you may not have a Red Seal for Machinist you are 100% a real machinist. I wish I had discovered your videos when I first started in machining back in 2018. I only found them last year and now refer my students to them to study out of class if they need more visual help. The fact that I was able to find clear, well shot and concise videos on turning and facing was a miracle and my heart wanted to explode when I realized it was from another STEM female. Thank you for your videos 🥰
Hey Quinn! Just point your camera at your trials and new shop ah-ha moments and we will all be happy coming along for the ride. Also, don't sweat the acoustics! I think you have moved for the best reason in the world.
That purge joke was absolutely hilarious, glad the move has gone well. Hopefully stress levels stay relatively low while unpacking 😅
A few years ago I got a small lathe, mainly for use in my scale modelling hobby. I started watching CZcams machining videos to learn how to use it, and quickly ended up on your channel. Your Lathe Skills videos were a great introduction. Then I started watching your new videos as they came in, which introduced me to milling and the options it offers. I now have a mill and last week I was able to machine my first part on it.
So, thanks for making machining accessible, and for inspiring me.
"I'm not a real machinist", well, you've got me fooled & I been doing this for half a century!
Sprocket 🥰 Also you'll find that duck quacks echo off the walls but pigeon sound don't, because a coo sticks.
@@NANA-cy7hd And a poo stick makes sure the elephants drop trou OUTSIDE the tent! Oh, There's no business like Showbusiness!
@@NANA-cy7hd 🤣🤣
You have 147,000 supporter’s behind you. Don’t burn yourself out for us, get settled in it will be worth the wait for us all. Your content and advice is invaluable for people like me who are self teaching at home. Good luck with the setup of the new workshop 😀
I'm actually quite happy to see a few hobby channels that don't sound like a NASCAR interview with sponsor mentions every other word!
I will move shortly, as well, a much shorter distance, but with a lot more stuff, to be close to family. I expect the housing market to collapse the day after I list my house.
that doesn t sound like a nascar interview...well said
I agree, some of my formerly favourite channels have started taking on sponsors or doing product placement. After a while you start to wonder if the person truly likes the product they're using or simply likes the money.
One of my favorite channels has fallen to this fate. I’m always happy to see others doing well, but I’d much rather hear about actual machining technique than the brand of mill your using for the 20th time this video.
I’m honestly a bit concerned how one CZcamsr in particular is going to fare moving forward. ToT caught a bit of flak for going CNC with a machine that many hobbyists could actually afford. I’m pretty sure you can see what I’m getting at here.
@@KennyEaton603 I can guess which one. Even though I used to sell machinery, I'm rather more interested in its use, and techniques.
@@KennyEaton603 I really enjoy ToT so far. I appreciate his style. He seems to use a lot of second hand stuff and he's not advertising products. Also I really hate all those "reviews" and "this brand vs another brand" because it's all nonsense. I love videos that show the process and share ideas and techniques. Most hobbyists need to deal with many limits. It's too easy to sell people more and more products while we can achieve so much with little tools and good ideas. Although it's a different topic I enjoy Mr. Chickadee because he opened my eyes to what can be done.
Being close to family is generally a good idea. I hope you can get some proper circuits run, and I doubt you need this tip, but ALWAYS put in more than you think you need.
As a Red Seal tradesman I see a lot of certified trades that should not be doing what they were trained for.
You are very much a machinist Quinn.
Cheers
Back to Canada Eh? Thanks for the videos, I learned so very much from them. ENJOY your life Quinn!Enjoy your life.
I don’t have any machine tools but love your videos. A clever mind and excellent explanation, combined with interesting project is just irresistible to a retired engineer!
Would love to see an interview with you and your Dad, it sounds like he was a big influence.
Also more sprocket please🙂
You are so lucky your pops is still around. I wish I could have went back home to Chicago n take care of my Dad. Today is his year anniversary of being gone. Great video as usual Huns!
Wow! Quinn, seriously, nearly fell of my chair when you said you were a teenager some 30 years ago. Good luck in your new place, even your last place was massive compared to most of our English homes. Well done you.
Dave, I’m with you, UK garages are so tiny, and rather limiting. The department of transport defines a garage opening as 1.5 times the vehicle width for a bus drivers reversing test. By that metric most garages are only suitable for Austin Sevens. Where we do win is 240volts supply, much smaller currents.
You keep a £150 lawn mover in the garage and at £20,000 car on the drive, mainly because you'd never be able to get out of the car if you drove in.
@@twotone3070 hahaha Ain't that the truth, only the mower's in the shed because the garage is my den of machines lol
@@twotone3070 just as well car makers have begun to realise it rains. Cars don’t tend to rust away so much now, they get abandoned because they are so complex no one can afford to repair them. The joys of modern life.
@@johnsherborne3245 All North American houses are actually 240 volts! They effectively use a "center-tap" system, with a common (stupidly called "neutral", anything but) wire and two "hot legs". All of the run-of-the-mill appliances run of of one of the 120v legs (commonly 15a or 20a circuits). A water heater or dryer or electric stove or oven will use the 240v. I have several 240 volt outlets (some that can handle 50 amperes, such as for the welder) in my house and garage.
I'd love to see you get a small surface grinder - one of your how-to serieses on a surface grinder or T&C grinder would be incredible. Good luck with the move!
This old Tony's videos on his surface grinder have me fascinated in these machines. I wonder if there is a "small shop" version that would work well.
Glad to see the move went well. No matter if you publish every week or not we will all come view when you do.
Thanks! Quinn just a small token of my appreciation of your efforts.
Love to see a layout and strategy for organizing your new shop. Thank you for being a go to for novices like myself.
Just came here to say the same thing. Im in the process of setting up my shop and getting into hobby machining and would love some insight and ideas in layout from someone whos been doing it for a while and has a chance to start from scratch and change things. Including even a simple video on electrical layout. My shop is lacking in that area as well and ive got to tackle laying out outlets and better lighting.
I appreciate you using the tools you are using. I recognize that an old “big iron” mill is awesome, but it’s a lot less approachable for most people.
Seeing you working on equipment that I could purchase on Amazon is extremely relatable.
Perfectly put - Quinn is the shop teacher I've always needed for the equipment that I can actually own!
Seconded - I'm pretty sure that a good percentage of subscribers are hobbyists with fairly basic equipment (I have a Myford ML7R, pretty small, and a Sieg X2-type mill) and going to large expensive machines will alienate quite a few.
Thirdeded. I think Quinn is making a real valuable contribution to a long-running body of work about not being constrained by limited machinery. Books like the 1948 classic "The Amateur's Lathe" (L.H. Sparey) are essentially all about this. There aren't many CZcams channels that are in this position. Bigger machines would dilute this significantly in my opinion.
It's true - I can think of at least two channels I used to love that became unwatchable when they landed a huge sponsorship deal and they had every specialized tool for any possible job. Limitations make you more creative.
@@peevester9987 Absolutely. Happens a lot with woodworking channels - they get money, move out of the garage into a purpose built shop, buy some industrial machinery, and then wonder why they're struggling to engage their existing (amateur, garage-based, low-budget) viewers.
Come on Quinn! You work on pinball machines, build steam engines, and machine just about anything you want. You CAN rewire that new shop. I just finished wiring my new dream barn/shop with 16 circuits. All done myself. Even trenched the conduit. Save yourself a five figure bill with an electrician and do a set of CZcams videos on adding circuits to your new place! :)
I wanted to wright a lengthy comment sharing my appreciation for your channel… well thanks!
Really respect your decision to move closer to your family. I love your videos and knew within about 5 seconds of seeing one of your videos you're a great person because you were talking about your dad and the stuff he taught you. I think that's special and feel the same about my parents. Thanks for all the helpful content. Hope the move goes smoothly from here!
Thanks for the update, Quinn. Hope you keep us involved in setting up the shop.
Thank you for all you do. It's not gone unnoticed.
Quinn, I may have missed the answer to my previous question, it was asking you where you moved from and where did you move to. Don't want an address, just the name of the cities? I know you will be glad to be closer to your family. Love your videos and am proud to be one of your patreons.
Congratulations on your move! I see your building inspector was quite busy. Enjoy your new space!! And don't worry, your fans won't mind a little wait till you're turning metal again.
I think it's so much nicer to see you working with tools that people with moderate budgets can afford. I've stopped watching some channels where they just keep on expanding their shop and buying more and more new (and old) stuff. It's nice for them, but as a viewer it creates a disconnect as it shows more their buying habits rather than getting better at using the equipment they already have. Keep on going Quinn, great channel.
Best wishes with the move Quinn! And thank you for your honesty and integrity 🙂
I just want to wish you well and your good health with your new shop. Great milestone, a product of hard work!
I’ll keep this short and simple, I love your channel! You are so good at doing what you’re doing. Thank you for your time and effort!
I heartily approve of your cat naming approach.
I have a dog whose short name is "Dozer", whose extended name is "J P Dozerman", and whose full name - which he only uses on formal occasions - is "J P Dozerman III, Esq."
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!
Moving for the right reasons. You're a good daughter.
Thanks Quinn! We’ll be here waiting! Slow & steady wins the race!
I watch a channel run by a crusty old Harley mechanic and he moved his 50yr shop last year. To say it was a big undertaking is a massive understatement. Anyhow,he filmed it all and posted a ton of content of him just going through everything and talking about what he’s done and what still needs to be done. I’m sure a lot of us would like to see how you get through your new shop set up as well. Just a thought.
Good luck with the big unpack! Looking forward to seeing what you create in the new space :)
Looking forward to see you setting your new shop up. All the very best of luck Quinn.👍👍
Your a good girl wanting to be close to your Dad. Big sacrifice but something you wont regret. I am proud to support you via Patrion.
You rock on Quinn, take your time the world can wait...
Thanks Quinn, you have taught us so much. All my machining skills have come from your channel. Being a smaller, cheaper lathe guy with no mill, I really have to adapt when making a project. Your knowledge has been immensely valuable.
Good luck with getting the new space set up - that process would be an excellent video series on its own!
Congratulations on you (and Sprocket) surviving the move. I'm excited to see how this stage of your career evolves.
Just thank you for all the enjoyment your efforts and entertainment provide.
Glad to hear that your move has been successful so far....I see lots of videos on air line install, wiring, work bench building in your near future, should be a fun summer and fall.
Congratulations on the move glad everything went well. Thanks for all your superb videos you have put together over the last 4 years Cheers.
It's very nice to see you and Sprocket have arrived safe and sound.
Best wishes in your new digs, be safe as you set things up. Look forward to your consistently high-quality productions as they continue, but take all the time you need; we'll eagerly but patiently await whatever you post. And remind Sprocket that it's a lucky cat indeed that is so well-loved!
such a joy to watch your unique humor you put in in your videos.. keep up the good work!! Love your teachings and we are here to support you!
Thanks for the Q&A. Good luck in the new shop. I hope you get it up and running to your liking asap. ATB regards from the UK
Wishing you all the best in your new home and some quality time with your family.
Best wishes on this new chapter of your life. Your commitment to family is most admirable.
Glad to see you and Sprocket made a safe trip. Hope your new home is great and it is always good to be close to family. Looking forward to future videos even if we have to wait a little.
Thanks for sharing.
When you put it like that I must admit I have appreciated your regularity far more than I had considered. Much love.
Quinn, all your content screams integrity and genuineness. I'm so glad you're gonna have more time to hang out with your dad. I'm probably older than he is, but he's a lucky guy to have produced someone of your caliber. I used to watch your computer stuff, and I always came away thinking, "She should be in front of graduate students teaching just about any subject under the Sun. It's so important to be able to articulate concepts in a way that's approachable, and you've mastered that in spades. Hard to overstate how proud of you I am.
Thanks for sharing, Quinn. Best of luck at your new location.
Thanks for taking the time to give the update and insights into your move. However, most of all thanks for the Sprocket clips! 😻🐈
Wow! A new video! I'm glad to see you're having some success regarding your move! I look forward to seeing your new setup, once it's set up! I also look forward to seeing you working on projects again! Best of luck to you and Sprocket!
Best of luck, Quinn. No doubt a stressful period of time. I wish you well.
Thank you so much for sharing more Sprocket cat, and congratulations on the move!
Happy new home, and workshop Quinn.
Purge, great double meaning 👌.
Thanks for sharing and don't worry about your absolutely impeccable record on contiguous videos.
Stay safe all
Hey Quinn, just one more question (from Australia); Why cant everyone be like you!?
Thanks for being a superbly talented, charismatic, honest & relatable presenter of wonderous works and insights of all types! Much respect for your compassionate reasons for moving too - all with a complete workshop & Sprocket as well, top stuff! :D
Radial arm saw is a beast. The manufacturer bought mine from me after 20 years. Was sick and didn’t want anyone to get access to it.
Family, always the best reason to do something.
I always enjoy the videos and look forward, from far far away in the UK, to the future ones.
haha loved the "driving" intro :)
Thanks for making this a great, and humorous, Q&A. It's always a treat when you upload a video!
I appreciate your dedication. You and Abom are my weekly youtube must-see videos. You both make my weekend. Thank you for all you do.
Welcome home Quinn ... Good luck with your new shop ... Hope you enjoy every minute of setting it up and using it :)
I'm glad to see your in your new place! I just moved late last year and I'm still working on my shop every chance I get. I would love to see you restore a old lathe or end mill just to see your take on it. Can't wait to see what the new shop looks like and how you set it up!
I really appreciate your channel! Good luck with the transitional period. Whenever you can, keep us posted. I admire the sincerity of your channel, keep it up :)
Whilst I may lament a missing weeks video, I'm not a machinist I enjoy the maker and human elements, I would never want you to feel unnecessarily pressured to create one. If you want to keep up a 'record' that's your choice, if you feel one missing week will fall foul of the algorithm, that's slightly worrying, if you think we won't be here, that's never going to happen. Your production values are outstanding and well worth any wait.
Glad your move went well.
Enjoy the next part of the journey through life.
Your hard work during your demonstration is evidence to show your dedication to work, you are my role model. Thank you
It’s also interesting how you layout your shop. I’ve watched all your old video’s about how you use your old shop as good as possible.
man i love this channel. i think you are handling the public/private dichotomy of being a private person with a public channel really gracefully, and i really appreciate your frankness and lack of self-consciousness. this is the only channel i have post notifications on for because it is always so enjoyable to watch, even and especially when it's just clips of sprocket!
good luck on the rest of the move, i hope it goes as smoothly as an international move can be expected to go!!
This is the ONLY cat video recorded entirely inside a vehicle that I've ever watched. It is also the only one I've ever enjoyed and appreciated. I think that record will now stand forever.
I'm also astounded to discover from it that you have never had the benefit of any formal training in machine shop technology. I suppose it proves that some very special people can learn and become competently expert at even the most difficult and challenging things without benefit of formal training. It prolly also proves there's a lot of good information running around and available now.
Your personal ethic and painfully rigorous discipline to develop and produce so many regular videos without fail is highly admirable, and I don't understand it in the least.
So glad you are big on safety. I literally broke my neck working in a shop, using SOP provided by the shop and as a result became a huge advocate for safety and ethics
Had a co worker lose an arm on a radial arm saw.
6:28 “I’m not a real machinist”. I think you are probably as good or better than 50% of the people making a living AS a machinist.
Rex Myers I agree...as a retired production machinist I am still learning more everyday from the very real amateurs (lovers) of machinery as well as the old pros!
Can confirm, I've been working as a machinist for almost 4 years now and I even got qualified for this job prior to that. Quinn is definitely more knowledgeable and experienced than I am.
I think Sprocket needs her own channel ❤️ Thanks for the update Quinn. Wishing for you nothing but the best.
You go girl!! I don't even have a lathe nor do I have any idea of mashining, it's a dream to me having a shop and all the tools. But you are one of a kind, you deserve everything good that is coming for you 🤗. One of the best CZcamsrs on the subject.
Hi Quinn. I was afraid I would be without my fix for a long time. Now my mood will improve. Can't live without your videos.
hi quinn, i know what it is like to move your entire life to another place. i think you do a fantastic job producing videos every week apart from your work in the shop you have a life outside the shop, to do it all is amazing. best wishes for the future from new zealand.
Will wait patiently for return, best of luck in the new house and all the best to Sprocket and the rest of your family.
Absolute beginner here and slowly working my way through your tutorials. Thank you so much.
Thank you Quinn for your videos and great work, And good luck with the rest of the workshop setup and move.🚛🚛🚛🚛👍
Quinn, I appreciate your work on CZcams. While I'm strictly a woodworker myself some of the things I've seen on your channel I've been able to use on wood. It just proves the old adage, you never know where you're going to learn something that you'll put to good use some day.
You & Sprocket keep up the good work. Thanks!
Quinn for your electrical issue, I had the same issue when I moved to my current house. The whole house was on a 100amp panel, I ended up getting a second 200amp service installed just for the garage and that has been great.
Thanks for the link to the carbide inserts. Doing this as a hobby I find it a bit tricky trying to figure out what works best. When you do upgrade to bigger machine tools just remember what the move was like this time and consider how much worse it gets when you buy more and bigger stuff!
Hope all goes well with the move. I really enjoy your channel and don't often comment but I think we can all relate to aging family and feeling like we need to be around for those who took care of us as they need help later on in life.
As a cat parent as well, I’m glad and relieved to see Sprocket is well and settling into her new kingdom.
As usual thanks for taking us along
There is no better reason than family, until a few weeks back I hadn't seen my adult children for 4 years, got to catch up for a coffee and a chat in a little coffee shop, ended up crying along with the staff. Facebook just isn't the same as a hug.
Enjoy your time with family, it can't be replaced.
Sunday morning. First thing:- tea, toast and Quinn’s weekly video. So look forward to Sundays.
Good luck with the new set up and come back on line when you can. We love the channel. William.
I'm looking forward to seeing your new shop set up. It looks like a nice size space. I enjoy all your videos and want to thank you for sharing your knowledge. I hope all your belongings arrived in good shape.
Cheers from Canada
I would like to see the difference in how you set up a shop and the machines now that you’ve had years more experience. Not just what you would do different but maybe even what you would put up with to get something else in return (unless your new shop happens to be perfect).
Love your channel because of its “hobby size” tools. This is the niche us views appreciate.
I’m a 68 yr old male who worked in IT most of my life but in retirement am playing with your size lathe and mill.
It’s your vids that have set me on a now two year adventure.
I would like to thank your patrons too Quinni. I guess we all do what we can in our bee hive. Probably I metaphorically just flap my wings (slowly) to keep the air moving. Thanks.
