Let’s face it. Every once in a while you have to stop creating new projects and clear some of the long standing ones off of your list. Because one can only live like an animal for so long!
ALSO a correction because I did a dumb. My grandfather was PFC (Private First Class) not PVC as I have in the video. My apologies!

Good ad, I almost wanted to shave! ;)
I guess it might be courter-intuitive (or rather counter-sponsor?) idea, but I'd bet you could also make some fancy razor, maybe so that it matches the pen?
Or design a replica or a new style line 🤔
Your choice of sponsors is excellent, I know a fab YT channel that had vid games for sponsors🤷🏻♂️
Just purchased one!
I think these side project videos might be the best ones actually
The best inheritance machining video to date, I love the wit and satisfaction that comes from cleaning the shop and doing the hard but worthwhile work.
I dont even know if this one counts as a side project honestly, this seems like a main quest
Yes watching someone else work is much better than working.
Good thing I'm never short on side projects
@@InheritanceMachiningpreach on brother
Your tribute to your grandfather pulled on some heart strings... and then you crush the sad feelings with p-star stache! I've never experienced polar opposite feelings of emotion in that short of a time!
lol exactly right about the stash 😂
That was a roller-coaster of emotions...
😂 Gotta lighten in up a little bit
What're you talking about? This is a machining channel, there's no drama here. Though, oddly enough, it did seem to get really dusty in my office right at the end.
i got whiplash from that 180
The fact he finally got a sponsor is awesome. This channel deserves it. And boy I wish your grandfather could be here in these videos. Imagine the knowledge he could share
Not just a sponsor: a sponsor of precision space machinists using their machining and production skills to improve shaving!
However, I’m in the ‘Grave before shave’ camp myself… NO ONE has seen my chin for 20+ yrs!!
...and maybe we can get more subscriptions out of honeydew Item #4... Very clever 😁
I did spit take at “I try really hard for quality with my own builds. Within reason of course”. Nothing about this channel is within reason.
Man I love everything about this video - the cleaning, the narration, the humour, the self reflection, the attention, the goofiness between you and your wife, the appreciation and tribute to your grandfather, the production quality... Please never stop making these.
Thank you so much! I'm going as long as I can!
and the tabasco! @@InheritanceMachining
Thank goodness for that outtake with your wife because you had me in tears with your grandfather’s picture and retirement plaque. 👏🏻
Puuuh, yes, the same with me. I love your channel. Greetings from Germany!
I feel that... thank my wife for her editing brilliance!
Did me too
i actually teared up, then burst out laughing
@@InheritanceMachining have you seen Mortdecai? theres a whole running "gag" through the whole movie of his thin twirled mustache and how his wife cant kiss him without gagging, and him having a sympathetic reflex. all the way to the very last second, and with a funeral to boot.
The button on the wall for my garage door opener was all messed up and it took a weird combinations of pressing swiping, frustration cussing to open it with the button... 7 years later (last week) I spent 3 minutes fixing it. 3 minutes....
No, but same xD
Yeah happens with all tiny projects
Reminds me of my 4runner that had an old touch screen GPS unit that every time you unhooked the battery it would reset and you had to re install the map from the disk. Well when my dad gave me the truck it wasn't working and they had no idea where the disk was so for the next 18 months I drove it without a radio, usually I would just use ear buds or a cordless BT radio sitting in the passenger seat until one day I finally cleaned out the center console and there was the map disk just sitting in the bottom. My 5 minute solution was sitting 6 Inches from my ass for 18 months.
So it's not just me!
@@InheritanceMachiningThe seek and peek method for finding items in drawers is definitely real. I admire people who can label drawers and bins. The problem with labeling is that overtime you find some drawers are packed to the point where you have to arrange and pack things tight to get them to close, while other drawers only have a couple of items with tons of empty space.
So nice to hear Paige’s voice and laughter. Hope you’re all doing well. Although not a machinist in any capacity this is inspiring me to get to my sewing room and clean up those vintage sewing machines from my grandma.
Oooo! You going to start making videos?
It was so wholesome and real.
I wander around, organizing the tools, I inherited, and those of my own, preparing to let go of my childhood property.
Just got a ****** mini lathe, and I've been watching your videos, brushing up in my skills.
Then, that ending, just pulls on the heart strings.
Please.
Take this moment, and understand, these feelings, and this moment, will never be forgotten.
Thank you for the inspiration to be proud of what I have, and the legacy I further.
My grandfather served in the Bulgarian military (artillerist) in WWII, after the Soviet occupation. Fought the Germans up to Austria and returned to work as a mechanic on the local military airport. He then worked for Renault for decades. I remember his Renault tool bag and I hope you know how lucky you are to have your grandpa's things and feel his closeness. I don't have anything left from mine (the other grandpa worked in a trains production factory and had such an amazing shop ❤). Anyway, what a fantastic video. So refreshing being realistic with sense of humour and care for the tools. I stumbled completely by chance and I'm glad I did.
Not a day goes by I'm not grateful for being able to have all this. My aim is to make the best of it as well. Thank you very much and welcome!
I dig that stache man! I love your wife's reaction to it as well, the pure disdain in that "I hate it!" was incredible
ohhhhmigod, her reaction was one of the funniest things I’ve heard in a while… “maybe give it a day….? NO!!!!”
Also, what is it with CZcamsrs and pornstaches this year?!?
@@noobFab dunno, that kind of style seems to be making a comeback. Everywhere I look I see pornstaches and mullets lol
Best ad break ever
😂 She's very fun to egg on.
@@squibblez2517 as if they ever went out of style.. sheesh
Don't forget to reinforce the shelves in the cabinets! They tend to collapse in the middle when heavy items are on them.
yeah on some you can shove a pieace of wood inside the support beam in the middle.
The "decoration" brings me to tears! The subtle and obvious admiration displayed for your grandfather gets me every time. This strikes a chord in my soul. I have no personal experience with a grandfather who passed on skills or tools. He did, however, show love and embrace imagination and creativity, and I feel that magnified watching you integrate your skills with your grandfather's gifts! Your storytelling is impeccable and entertaining, and I look forward to the things you wish to share! Well done!
Excellent vid sir, and excellent editing by your wife. It was fun watching you two crack each other up. A fitting tribute to place the photo and plaque of your grandfather on the wall of the shop too. A man most worthy of remembrance.
Thank you 🙏
This channel is so much more than just another "machining" channel. this is a full blown life story, and I am loving it. I've watched every single video and always eagerly look forward to the next. truly a masterful story teller. I Wish you all the best.
I really appreciate that! The story is the most important part for me honestly.
I appreciate that you immediately put the wire wheel to use in the next shot after moving the sandblasting cabinet. Super satisfying video! Shop cleanups rule.
💪😎
Probably my favorite yet! Not sure if it’s because of the projects, the jokes, the editing, or simply the fact that I am no longer depressed. I found your channel in a really dark time and your meticulous care/ soothing manner helped me relax and enjoy your work, until I could enjoy mine again. Thank you.
I'm sure you'll never read this but i wanted to take the time and tell you that this video really hit my heart hard. I also learn so very much in the garage/shop with my grandfather and after he had passed my dad. In 2016 my dad passed away and now I'm passing the same knowledge plus some to my kids in the same shop and using the same tools that my grandfather and dad had used to teach me. Your devotion to recognize and put your family in the spotlight in so many of your videos always puts a smile on my face. You are making him proud in your shop.
Thank you so much, Scott. I really love hearing that you're keeping the traditions alive
Thank you for sharing your passion with us. I love it when you talk about your grandfather. My grandfather was also in the 101st Airborne Div. Wouldn't it e crazy if they had known each other? - Cheers
That would be nuts! He was in around 1955-59 ish. Did a tour in Lebanon.
I do not have the words to properly describe how this channel makes me feel. This video and the other restoration videos you have put up are EXTREMELY satisfying to a degree I rarely experience with any other channel. This is by far one of my favorite channels on CZcams overall. Thank you for creating these videos and keep up the amazing work!!
Thank you very much, sir!
Absolutamente! Additionally, the fact that you show your mistakes in brutally honest and matter-of-fact detail is a wonderful tonic when the pervasive culture on the internet is fake excellence. It's also far more instructive that way, and you're saving others from finding out the same hard way you did.
I agree. Love these videos. They make me feel warm and fuzzy.
it definitely makes me a little sad, I have always worked in a mess, I accumulate crap and projects faster than I find places to store them and now I've just about run out of space there's no way to tetris everything around to sort it out, it's just piles on piles, lol
my grandpa was a lieutenant in the arny, he served in germany, france and japan, hell he even watches your videos sometimes.. at 106 he is still living a very happy life, so this brings something else in me.. thank you brandon and for your grandfathers service.. keep up the good work
Hello big fan😊
I never really comment on any of the videos I watch, but when I see you slowly but surely restoring your grandfather's tools and bringing you back to life.I can only think that he would have been incredibly proud of the work you do. From a fellow who himself has worked in the Norwegian Army for 10 years, and with enormous respect for the 101st. Keep up the precise work and thanks for the wonderful content.
Sondre from Norway
Thank you so much for stopping in, Sondre! And thank you for the kind words! My grandfather was very proud of his service despite not sharing much about it. I've always heard that the 101st was one of the best
@@InheritanceMachining Lots of those who served back then are fairly quiet about it… my dad sure was.
That ending was a very touching way to pay respects to your grandfather brought a tear to my eye.
Sounds like you missed the "real" ending though! 😂
@@PatrickKQ4HBD I didn't miss it the heartwarming memorial to his grandfather to me was the real ending lol
Had to smile at your other half's reaction 😂 "We have a funeral on Saturday!"
Last time I shaved mine into a stache everyone called Magnum, I kinda liked it tho....
It's a bold move for sure.
My dad and grandpa happened to work at the Ford Sharonville plant during your Granfather’s service dates. Great job honoring him and keeping his memories going
This episode of inheritance machining was by far the most touching for me, my grandfather passed just last year, and that set in his way, grumpy oll man, taught me everything he knew technical, and mechanical. Today I’m an engineer, and master machinists. Watching you honor your grandfather, put me in a very deep appreciation of my own grandfather.
Thank you sir
I'm not going to lie, watching you hang Grandpa's pic up teared me up. I think I've spoken before about how I also had a close relationship with my grandpa who was also a tool and die maker, sadly my grandpa died young, the summer he retired in fact. I've missed him every day, and I think what your doing is absolutely beautiful. Carry on sir, your grandad is proud
WHY IS A MACHINING CHANNEL MAKING ME CRY?!?
Thank you 🙏 They don't make 'em like they used to. I'm sure you'll agree it's truly invaluable to have had a good relationship with our grandfathers (and grandmothers for that matter)
@@InheritanceMachining so very true, grandparents are a blessing. My best memories are of them.
I'm 22, I state my age here because unfortunately as a young man there are not many others of my age group like myself. Especially where the hanging of the plaque and picture would move my heart and bring a tear to my eye. I'm an apprentice electrician, my journeyman passed on last week. He was an old wise man, like a father to me. I have an utmost respect to all those old timers out there, the end of this video really hit home for me. I felt like a lost a part of myself when I learned of his passing. Rest in peace, Scott.
@@kamiskenaw4340 it's never easy young man, all we can do is honor their memory and pass what we've learned on to those that wish to learn as our way of honoring it.
the wife's reaction to your stache was gold
This video hit me deep in the feels man....
I lost my grandfather to cancer on Thanksgiving day of 2019, just before dinner.
He was a machinist and mechanical design engineer, and he is a reason I became a machinist and am working towards my mechanical engineering degree.
I also inherited my grandfather's machinist stuff from his shop but he got rid of the machines in the late 80s when he closed shop to go be a contractor for different defense companies . I've been thinking about reviving his old company name.
It's very cool to see you making these videos and seeing this video made me feel not alone and kinda happy. It brings back memories.
Thanks for posting this !
I love your vidoes not just for the incredible insight and intentionally detail, nor because you also show your mistakes and how you learned from them, but also because of the great camera work and cinematic story telling. For example, when you mentioned you hadn't been able to use the wire breush for some time, then later showing it being used after moving the sandblaster. You showed the valuable change without having to overly explain it. Great stuff as always.
that ending was really nice, I'm sure he would be proud of you for carrying on his legacy and maybe getting more people intrested im machining :)
Abit confusing when you saw the ending ending
Thank you, sir!
Can't help but wonder if it's just me, or just the way things are, but I've always thought that chamfers on metal are the perfect 'completion' step to a part, but on wood round-overs take the top spot. Even if they're identical parts.
Well hobestly rounded corners take the top spot in my heart for any material. Its just a lot more time intensive than in wood
I never thought about that... but I tend to agree 😂
@@InheritanceMachining At least it's not just me being weird.. :)
I call chamfers gem cuts cause they add so much beauty.
@@D3nn1srounding the edge with a flap disc is the chef's kiss in fabrication
Over 20 years ago, I stopped using teflon tape, teflon schmoo and the like because it always leaks with crappy cast fittings, plastic and many brass fittings. I only use the ordinary silicone sealant on air, oil and water fittings. Also works instead of gaskets for exhaust headers, transmission and engine components. Don't even have to wait until it cures. No good for solvents and gasoline, which is great for removing the residue when you take it apart. Only apply to the male threads, just like teflon tape so it doesn't get where you don't need it. I built racing engines many years ago and only used gaskets when they provide clearance like in an oil pump. Then, I smeared silicon on both sides and when seperated later, the gasket doesn't get torn apart.
Love your content and humour. Have learned lots.
As you were wrapping this video and talking about your grandfather, I was thinking of my dad. He passed away many years ago, and one regret I have is that I never really talked to him about his job. He was a tool and die maker for Ford at their Buffalo stamping plant and a member of UAW 897. My dad apprenticed in Copenhagen, Denmark, where he grew up, then got a job in Canada before moving to the US to take the job at Ford.
You can imagine that I was pleasantly surprised to hear that your Granddad was also a tool and die maker for Ford.
I'm glad you have all the machine tools to act as a tangible connection to your family. I don't have any machine tools or any related skills, just an interest in watching you, Quinn, This Old Tony, Adam Booth, and the other usual suspects on CZcams.
Best,
Eric
Got something in my eye there at the end..
I couldn’t have found a better way to recover this morning from a long hard week. Your videos are some of the most powerful motivation I come across. My shop got so much cleaner watching you clean yours. Thanks my friend.
Rest in peace Grandpa, we got this from here.
The homage to your grandfather at the end was fitting. Then to bring back the humor for the last shot. Perfect to convey the beauty of family, love, and remembrance while still highlighting humor and passion life brings as long as you continue to look for it. Bravo 👏. Thank you sincerely.
Well said! Thank you!
Loved this one. I did a major shop reorganization early last year and I'm still amazed how much a difference to my workflow its made. Love the pride for your grandfather too. My grandfather is still alive, turning 95 this December, and was also a machinist, among other things. I've learned so much from him and see where so many traits of mine came from.
I'm so jealous, not because you have this amazing shop that's fully stocked with all the tools and machines a machinst could want but because you had a grandfather that truly cared about you. I never had a grandfather. My father's dad died before my father was even 2 years old and my mother's dad left the family in 1965 exactly 20 years before I was born. My only male role model was my father and I wouldn't wish that on someone I hate. It wasn't until I was 25 years old getting out of the Army when I found a male role model worth modeling your life after and even then I only got a couple months of his guidance but he's the best human I've ever meet and someone I care a lot about but it's not the same as having a caring grandfather. I'm honestly happy you had that and that you're sharing that love with us, random people on CZcams. Thank you for sharing.
I also recently bought that exact same set of drawers from Harbor Freight (except I went full cheap skate and bought the awful green one because it was an extra $50 cheaper). I'm very impressed with the build quality given the price, sometimes it pays off to be constantly on the lookout for sales and closeouts! I hope some of your motivation rubs off on me after watching this because my shop is so much worse than yours and could use the same TLC.
Same on the drawers! I was very surprised given the quality of a lot of their other stuff. They are nicer than all 3 of my other Craftsman drawers
Man, I love everything about this video. What a great tribute. I also have a photo of my grandfather hanging in my workshop, and the calipers my dad used to teach me to read the Vernier scale, so it's especially near and dear.
That's awesome!
Each one of your videos is so meaningfull. On the surface you are just working with tools, but you are able to give each project a story with compassion and care. When each video comes to an end, I get that comforting feeling of having just watched my favorate movie. I really don't know how to describe it but you have a storytelling gift. This video in particular was my favorate by a mile. I can't get enough of organizing and cleaning up my own shop. Keep up the amazing work
When my dad had the summers off from college, he had a summer job at the Ford Rouge plant in Dearborn, Michigan, the original plant Henry built. This was back in the late 50’s and early 60’s, and he was making ten bucks an hour for cleaning up every time they poured the molten metal, twice a shift. That was good money back then for not much work.
Seeing where your grandfather worked at the Ford plant brought back memories of my dad. I still miss him.
Honestly, I think the videos where you fix, maintain, and upgrade you shop are the most entertaining to watch.
Vicariously satisfying, and I'm sure your Granddad would be very pleased to know that you continue maching and improving your excellent skills and that his machines and tools are still being used to make great stuff.
Fun tip from an electrician who rebuilds machine tools, if you just put a small cut or notch on the side of the zip tie tail you can spin it off for a totally flush cut. It saves time and has cleaned up a lot of my backplanes.
Great content as always, loving the jokes and personality making their way into the videos. My grandmother was my closest family member and will always hold that special place in my thoughts and heart. Looking forward to the next one!!
Since you inherited me from Paige’s still-missed CZcams channel, you won’t be surprised to learn that this is my favorite video thus far. But even as a non-machinist, I keep tuning in for the perfection that is your channel. Sincere salute to both you & Paige for creating awesome content!!!
Ahhh man, now I have to finish cleaning up my workshop too. I’ve got some hard decisions to make about what machines have to go so I have room to work properly. Your wife is right, the ‘stash has to go. Cheers mate, Stuart 🇦🇺
😂 Big decisions all around!
Organizing your space feels so invigorating because you're organizing your brain as well! There's science behind it.
It was incredible to see your grandfather finally have a place and a presence in the shop again. Thank you for sharing him with us.
The touch with your grandfathers photo at the end is amazing, R.I.P, and thanks for giving me something good to watch
Perfect Engineer
Perfect CZcamsr
Truly a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to your grandfather and the passion he imparted to you. Such a wonderful video.
Thank you 🙏
My grandfather was my hero. He gave me my passion for engineering and I miss him all the time. Your videos bring his memory back in full force and I can’t thank you enough for that. I just wish he could see what I’ve accomplished… I think he’d be proud just as I think your grandfather would be. Keep up this amazing work! You have more value to this community than you think.
I wish I'd known my grandfather better, he was nearly 80 years older than me, my dad being born late (not exactly sure) and me when my dad was over 40 it adds up! He was a chemist at ICI during WW2 and I'm sure would have had some interesting work stories if I'd known him now, though typifying "the silent generation" maybe he wouldn't have had much more to say to an adult than a child, I don't think I was into my teens when he passed, he did teach me Mahjong and seemed to enjoy doing it
Wow!!! I really enjoyed this one on SOOOO many levels! The outakes, the humility, self-deprecation, clean-up of the bandsaw leading to the jet drill press, etc, screwing up on the bandsaw platen, reorganizational thought process resulting in shop Tetris, etc... Literally all of these things I relate to and sometimes in the exact same order even when using the Evaporust on a de-rustig project allowing it to stay on too long and then discovering I ended up with the unwanted etching and finally being resolved in realizing nothing could reasonably be done about it.
What a great ending! (Knot in my throat), cleaning up and showcasing the memorial to your inheritance! MOST EXCELLENT!!! Truly, you are growing on us!
Geeze! I really didn't want this to look like I'm tripping over myself appreciating your content but can't help it!
oh man this is so satisfying. There's no better thing to tidy up a bit when you feel like a mess
Amen!
Was your Grandfather a Private (PVT) or a Private First Class (PFC)? I am confused what "US Army PVC - 101st Airborne" could mean otherwise
he kept his privates very clean
Truly a wonderful episode! I remember when you just started this channel and I'm glad to see it become successful.
I wanted to simply comment after watching all the previous episodes and specifically this one was OMG!!! No words can do it justice. InheritanceMachining, you have my upmost respect. I feel your thought process and shop decisions, in my soul. It resonates with me when you talk about your organization and “why didn’t i just do that sooner”. I love your editing and approach, humility, and including your wife in it too. Of all the channels i follow on youtube, yours is the best!
I think anyone who has spent enough time in a shop can relate 😂 There's always a better way that something can "be". Thanks a lot, Dustin!
im not crying u are
One of the best parts of being on CZcams it seems is being able to make stuff like this and still making money. Instead of only making money when he machines are running. We all love watching a shop makeover!
You rolling out the parts washer, gave me a half chuckle. As everyone knows there is the universal law of shops and storage. No matter how much you have it will fill up. I went from a 2 car garage that parked 2 cars to 25' x 30' shop and filled the shop up. I had years to work and use every cubic inch of the 2 car. Just now starting to get efficient use of shop space. I went to a local tool shop to look at parts washer. The salesman asked me a few questions, then told me, if it was him, he would just buy a 5 gallon bucket with a good lid. He said it would keep evaporation down, which would keep the smell down. But the big thing it would save was floor space. I bought a 5 gallon "gas" can and filled it up with solvent. I did not use all of it in the 5g bucket. I have used that system for over 15 years. I have to replace the bucket once and still have some fresh left in the "gas" can from the original purchase. Every so often, after sitting and before using, I will pour it into a new temporary bucket, leaving the stuff in the bottom. After cleaning out stuff, pour it back in, clean out the temporary bucket, and use it. Most of what I used it for would fit in the bucket. If not then I have some large aluminum cookie sheets that I can use. I also keep them on the workbench to keep it clean. I got them cheap at a local restaurant supply. Thanks for your show.
1:05 Is that supposed to be because they're all bent over?
And here is my fortnightly dose of machine shop ASMR. This is just what I was waiting for.
Absolutely love your channel. Your voiceovers and editing are just as good as the machining. Props to your wife for supporting your CZcams side project and helping out. If you ever do a KY meet and greet I’d love to come 😬
I work in product development for Ford. In my nearly 30 years with the company I've watched the retirement plaques go from cool handmade/heartfelt items like your grandfather received to the typical corporate stuff. This was awesome to see!
This was my fav video yet - the end without any narration needed was perfect - really quite touching.
Thanks for this video. I can relate to the way you talk about your shop and working with machinist tools... Also, I like the respect, appreciation, and gratitude you express regarding your grandfather.
Absolutely love the art work at the end! What a tribute!
These level up videos for the shop are some of the best. All the small fixes to improve efficiency and save time are brilliant to watch.
You know what tool you need to get next for your shop? A dehumidifier.
I live in redwood country, which is basically a rain forest on the coast, so I put a dehumidifier in my shop and I can honestly say that it has saved me from the never-ending “rust removal” routine. Highly recommend. Set to 45-50% relative humidity, plumb it to drain outside, and you’re good to go.
Also ! my grandfather was a millwright at Johns-Manville. Seeing the quality of my own work, my dad once told me that I obviously inherited all my natural aptitude for machine work from my granddad.. which is one of the best things he ever said to me. So, I think we’ve been blessed. Keep on!
My favorite episodes are the ones in which you talk about your Grandfather. This one was especially good. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride mate.
All of your videos have touched me but I think your respect for your grandfather in this one has touched my heart
Thank you 🙏 This one really got me in the feels
It's amazing that yours is probably the only youtube channel that makes me watch through you cleaning and reorganizing your workshop, the whole sponsored part and the whole end credits with enjoyment. Thank you. And out of all Henson sponsored sections, yours is the only one I give any thought of buying in.
my grandfather passed recently and the ending warmed my heart he served on the uss independence where he learned to be a dental technician and he was always there to cheer my projects on even if he didnt really understand much
That is very sweet. Thanks to your grandfather for his service and may he rest in peace
everything about this is perfect
maintenance and re-organization are unglamorous but very much needed to have the clarity, space and ergonomics to tackle on bigger projects
I stumbled upon your channel by happenstance and I like the energy!
That ending was beautiful. Reminds me of my grandfather. We're all victims to the passage of tome and must appreciate those we have while they're still here. He's getting old, and each day he gets slower, but he'll always be my granddad.
As always you bring sweet memories to mind since as I told you before I also grew up in my grandfather's machine shop. And went on to become a Toolmaker for over thirty years.
Excellent video! Tool and workshop maintenance is so rewarding! When everything is properly stored and tools and accessories are clean, it feels like a brand new start. Greetings from Sweden mate.
The picture and plaque and the end are just 👌🏻. Had no idea your grandfather was in the 101st. I recently rewatched HBO’s Band of Brothers so my respect for him just doubled. Driving nothing other than Ford trucks my whole life that plaque really hit home also. Loving the content man keep it up.
I love your sense of humor. And isn't it satisfying to organize your stuff? I'm a mechanic and it literally makes me do a little dance in place when I put things away in good order. This is a great video.
thank you for this kind video. I last week got my grandfathers old chainsaw, some tinkering to get it going again, today i was and picked up a new chain and bar for it. Its nice but also sad as i was planning on him teaching me all these things but we did not have time enough for that, we started and im doing it myself now but its nice to have him by my side. I can imagen you feel the same sometimes.
cozy video, this type of tinkering is my favorite. i hope i can get to have spaces good enough to happily do these sortings and rust free-ness.
cheers and ill hang around. (part of me would love to be a machinist)
From Sweden
That was an absolutely phenomenal ending to wonderful segment of your journey. Thank you for sharing and paying tribute.
I know this is a few months old but I really love your videos and projects. What a great man your grandfather must have been. Thank you for his service to this country. Was nice to see he worked for Ford. My father also worked for Ford up in Cleveland engine plant 1and 2. Main engine line repair. Thanks again.
Its amazing to think what a knock on effect the life of your grandfather had. You're very lucky, not alot of people have that. Those who are starting from scratch can only hope to turn things around and be like your grandfather in order to pass on righteousness to the next generation. One can only imagine a world where such encouragement and inspiration were common to every childhood home.
The genuine relationship you have with your wife just makes me appreciate you and the channel that much more.
The feeling you describe here about getting things just the way you like it, is something i didn't discover until i was an adult, but man oh man what a nice feeling it gives.. i am a 43y old man and father of two, but i can't help but to giggle and shiver a little when i do these things.. like happiness just bursting out, having nowhere else to go! .. Thank you for sharing this!
I literally got goosebumps when you hanged up the picture and the shiny golden plate next to it! That really got me! Thanks for your hard work in making our lives a little bit more enjoyable 😁
Nice work! I always love to clean and re-organize my shop. Nice touch with grandpa’s plaques. Good stuff.
My grandfather was a machinist in the navy during World War II and continued on with the hobby throughout his life especially in retirement. I’ve inherited some of his tools and I feel a similar sentiment when I see your videos. Thank you for sharing.
This video truly touched on pain points in the shop. I am in the middle of an organizing the shop session and seeing the results you achieved makes me want to not short the effort. Great job on this.
Thanks! And I think you will thank yourself in the long run for the efforts you put in now
wow, i wasn't expecting the endings of one of your videos to make me tear up, but here we are
Honestly, one of my favorite vids of yours to date, seeing the process behind all this is Incredible.
Awesome video.The out takes are hilarious. Great way to honor your grandfather. Thank you for giving that manual a great home. On to the next project.
Salute to your grandpa, to an old vet from a young vet; thanks for including him at the end. He'd be proud of you and your shop.
I can relate to your attention to detail. It’s satisfying to get things just right. Thank you for sharing your time and bits of your life.
this video brought tears to my eyes at the end. Godspeed ser
The "filling my drawers" dad joke snuck up on me. You got me. Bravo!
Such a wholesome channel, you can always take my mind from whatever else is going on.
❤️
Thank you so much for your videos. Your video on manual drafting made me recognice an old drafting machine at a flea market and inspired me to do a project without any computer design or 3d printing. It was a great experience, drawing every little bit by hand gave me much more time to think about the individual features and was overall soooo relaxing!
Great video! You made me cry a bit near the end. I miss my grandfather so much. I got (and use) many of his tools after he passed. Not as many or as big as you have, but I have my grandfathers smaller hand tools and HSS cutters and stuff. Also, I have many things that he had kept as keepsakes of his time working in the machining field.
He would show me these crazy things that he had made like an aluminum rocket gasket ring that was three feet in diameter (and a cross section of less than 1/2" square) with three t-slots lathed into the inside rim for some kind of gaskets. Not only do I have a 2" chunk of a scrap/shame piece from that project, but I also have the actual HSS tool he used to cut it. Very interesting.
I also have a micrometer of his though, that is my favorite because he made it himself. He went to get a job (back in the day) and the foreman asked if he had a micrometer. He said no and was asked to go and use the shop to make one to see if they should hire him. He did and was hired. It looks a bit rough but still good to a thou (or so).
I love your content. Keep it up. Thank you for sharing!
That was such a satisfying video to watch. Thank you for giving us all motivation to clean up our shops and get organized!
Your wife's reaction to your 'stache was great! The "decorations" at the end were a nice touch, now all you have to do is keep the shop clean... especially with the KY winter coming for us.
