You know how ToT never does a wide shot of the whole shop?
I think it's because the shop is an absolute mess.
Those are the wide shots, it's pretty close in there.
Thanks for the
Maybe that’s because it’s the machine shop....in the prison!!😮
I think it's because he's in witness protection.
CK. don't knock it till you try it! Messy shops rule!!!
I just watched someone clean a shop for 15 minutes and I was disappointed when it was over. You have a special gift ToT, Merry Christmas.
My girl think I'm so weird because of my fascination of how he presents his thoughts
This Old Tony, I really enjoyed watching you do a slow, inefficient, and mediocre job cleaning. Merry Christmas 🎄
he definitely did a city job of cleaning.
This gave me a serious chuckle
I was watching this one, laughing, and my girlfriend walked in the room and immediately said, "Is that that Tony guy?" Yes, yes it is.
TomHaroldArt That’s what my wife says 😂. Then I correct her and she giggles every time I say “no, it’s this old tony.” Then she says “I love that.” 💁♂️
Haha mine just calls TOT and AVE the hand guy videos. It normal goes something like "when you're finished watching the hand guy can you do this" I try to explain the difference and show her but she gets this look on her face and normally stops me and says hunny I just don't care
This is many years on, but the wife knows ToT as "the guy with floofs" because he had those kittens for a while and she calls them floofs.
ToT testing the boundaries of his content. "I wonder if I can ramble on about nothing for 15 minutes while I half-heartedly clean the shop." The fans apparently say you can!
A side of life some people don't experience, I was thoroughly entertained
We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe. So, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days nickels had pictures of bumble bees on them. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now was I... Oh yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.
G Train 😂
good old grampa simpson
You beat me to it 😁. Most fitting analog
damn onions
oh my lord! it's acualy real! simpsoncrazy.com/lists/grampa-stories
My Christmas is made. Merry Christmas
Same here. Merry Christmas to you too
Mine as well 69th Like.
Thank you for Officer Abom. You gave me my biggest smile of Christmas ToT. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
my sons wouldn't let me wait to watch this. I'm glad they didn't
I just watched 15 minutes of a man's hands cleaning metal chips from his shop while listening to him tell a random story, and I loved every second of it. Merry Christmas!
ToT does it again with another great cameo. Merry Christmas ToT and family.
Nah. This is not a TOT vid. The real TOT would have just lathe time traveled back to the point of a clean shop and progressed from there.
Your not fooling us again. How much of that dirt was metric dirt anyway?
Merry Christmas Tony.
_Back_ to a clean shop? That sounds distinctly unrealistic.
Jared Maddox “back” is a relative term in lathe based time travel. I would agree with you if you only considered lathe time travel in imperial.But if metric was used! Any thing is possible.
Metric time travel can give you a relative state of clean.
Traveling on the ways!
No good deed goes unpunished....
Rule of Acquisition number 285.
A truer word has never been spoken. Merry Christmas
Back in the day when I was a wee lad, I worked with an old guy with the initial "LBJ"! He was usually pleasantly primed by the afternoon. So he bitched at me when all of OUR maintenance work didn't get done. He finally got the boot when they found him in the parking lot in the trunk of his car with his big red nose, curled up with his bottle of seedless Red #4!!! (He had hinged the backseat back to allow him access to the car's trunk). He was very cagey about it, but when the supervisors couldn't find him, they set up a watch on his car; and they actually caught him climbing out of the trunk into the backseat of his locked car!!! 😎👽
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
How about unpublished?
Three years later on a dark, depressing night and with Christmas at least 13 months away, I find much needed distraction and comfort in this hand-choreography masterpiece. It deserves an Oscars-category. For “Best hand actor” or “Most used black sweater”, they can skip the nominations and go straight to the price giving ceremonies.
From one former govt inspector to another - Merry Christmas TOT! 🎄
Make that 3 of us. Our work vehicles were also “retired” police cars with the luxurious rubber lined floors, spot light, and 150k+ “gently” driven miles on them. Never saw so many people slyly try and put on their seatbelts in traffic before. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Municipal maintenance worker for ten years, even had a guy to talk my ear off. He was a legit employee tho 😁
Yep me 4th have a look at my comment I left it just before I seen this comment lol
@@nerfherder4284 what does that phrase mean? "Talk my ears off"?
@@operator8886 : If it gets directed at you, then go buy a bobblehead to socialize with.
Somebody get this man a shop vac. Even a crappy one. Brush attachments come with them.
Can't really make this video with a shop vac running the whole time, now can ya?
Then the next video would be about cleaning the shop vac. The never ending story . . .
Surely AvE has a pile of parts that could be made into a shop vac project.
you can't make a 15-minute long video with a vacuum, gotta hit that 10-minute mark y'know
@@TheAmpair I'm sure ToT could whip up a decent dust separator on the lathe. :)
Couldn't be a better ending.....Merry Christmas Tony.
Reminds me of the story of old Pete. Old Pete worked the booth of a city parking lot. He took people's money every morning. Pete was professional, clean, sharply dressed and always friendly. He worked 5 days a week, year in and year out. People came and people went and Pete was always there. 20 years roll by and one day... Pete wasn't there. Nobody knew what to do. Finally, someone did some calling. Every department they reached in the city knew nothing about that parking lot or Pete. Finally, someone with the city knowing of all the city parking lots was reached. They knew nothing of that particular lot, it was not a city lot and Pete was certainly not a city employee. "Pete" took money from people 5 days a week, every week for 20 years then "Pete"... took off.
That sounds like Bristol zoo....

It goes to show you that TOT's hands may be the star of the show, but his voice is the rest of the production. Merry Christmas.
Best CZcams Hand Model 2019
Don't forget the editing. Or the Subscribe police will get ya.
Absolute gold!
I knew who LP was at the first mention, and Adam as the security guard is just priceless.
I finaly got to see a video before 7 thousand others! The key is to blow off Xmas and stay glued to CZcams. A divorce is worth it!
Sup, LP.
Only seven k?
Is it really?
Hahhaha💪🏻😎🤣
Man, I barely made it before 7,000 *likes*! Guess that's what happens after the divorce has happened.
Tony, thank you for giving me a laugh this Christmas. It hasn't been a very happy one, due to the loss of someone dear to me this year. Your videos are brilliant and they have given me more laughs than you can possibly know. I'm so glad that I found your channel and thank you for the great content. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Small steps everyday and slowly things get a little better. Be thankful for what you had and that your loved one is no longer suffering.
@@markfryer9880 I couldn't agree with you more. Thank you so much.
Sorry, family, this is an emergency.
Yeah... I told my lady I was "going to get something upstairs" -- when actually I just wanted to listen to old tony talk about kissy noises from prisoners.
Love the custom made T-Slot cleaner/bottle opener 👍
Merry Christmas all
Gather round children for the classic christmas tale of this young Tony
Love the Abom79 security guard !🤣😂🤣
I just finished my similar cleanup - it was a memorable mess but now my tools are clean again and I found things that I had been looking for for a while. I like those cheapest paint brushes for swarf sweeping - the thin ones with the unpainted handles - because they can get into places that the bigger more expensive brushes can't and they don't fluff up near as quick. MC&HNY.
Something about how the offices just kept accumulating until neutron star effect, really resonated with me.
This is one of the few channels I will never unsubscribe. If most channels were to be like this one, TV would disappear. Merry Christmas!
Broadcast TV still around in 2020. Like American sockets with weird voltages and no ground, in the bathroom.
R4M_InternetExplorer_EXE exactly. Makes CZcams more honest than the “clickbait & titlebait” channels.
I haven´t watched Broadcasted TV in years...
About 5 minutes in, I started cleaning my South Bend. The powers of suggestion I guess. Merry Christmas Tony
I could listen to ToT talk about anything, great story. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Amazing ! I went out to the shop to clean it up moved one item on the bench which triggered a domino effect and knocked something over at the back wall Thoroughly frightened I headed in to find an old tony Christmas story. I'll clean the shop next year.
Please do more of these! Story time with TOT.
Ps. Merry Christmas
Hehe, done it again.
I don't often laugh out loud watching CZcams videos, but yours are an exception.
Thank you so very much.
Hope you had a great Christmas day and best wishes for the new year.
Merry Christmas this old Tony. And Mr Peat. A boom. And every body in utube. M
Tot always makes my day with his videos. Thanks for sharing
LP... I should've seen that coming😆. Love Mr. Pete. Nice work TOT, and merry Christmas.
Thanks Tony. My wife saw your video and now she wants my to clean my shop. I tryed telling her I had different machines then you but she did not buy that. It did end OK. I told her I needed some new tools to do the cleaning and she said I could get whatever I needed (wanted). All is well. Happy New Year.
What a Nice story! And who would have ever known it was Mr. Pete 222, a Resident! Now that made my day. YoUTube is a small world.
I honestly don't know if that last story about LP is true or not, I'm too tired from work to really process it.
Fantastic story. Here's wishing you, mrs. This old tony and little this old tony jr a merry Christmas.
that is the worst chip brush I have ever seen...........
ohhh ive seen WAYY worse. imagine afro hair on a brush.
Maybe Mr Pete can give him a new one as a thank you when Tony picks him up and drives him home . Lol.
Hazard Fraud. Chip brushes are $10 for a box of 100...
It was pure torture watching the ineffectiveness of that brush. I tell ya.
@@willierants5880 looked like it got the job done to me. he wasn't set out to detail clean the machines.
Watching this on Christmas Eve, home alone, because covid ruined seeing my family and doing christmas this year. Thanks for the video TOT, I like seeing all your machines in a cleaned state 😊
The Vomiting Elevators - My favorite post punk band ;-)
Thank you very much, ToT. My day was kinda tailing off a bit but now I'm all fired up to go brush off my own chips & I don't even have any machinery. God bless Canada & all those who something, something.
Abom looks pretty great with a cop uniform!
lol I had to double take when I watched it.
nobody looks good in a cop uniform
@@axeman2638 why is that?
@@h0lx because they are criminal gang of low iq thugs terrorising people and extorting money from them
@@axeman2638 I am sorry you had bad experiences, that doesn't mean all the cops in the whole world are bad. I have only had good experiences, even being on the arrested side.
Just watched this for the third time. It's bloody May, not Christmas, & I'm still loving watching a guy clear away swarf. ToT, you have the Gift of the Gab.
This is true Americana, worthy of Gene Shepherd! Have a merry one, TOT.
Jean? Sherperd and the kid is going to shave his eye out! 🙂
Absolutely the funniest thing I have seen this year, on a channel that is always fun to watch. The guest appearance from Mr Pete was the icing on the cake. Thanks for the laughs and the ongoing education. I wish I had more thumbs with which to up.
I waited by the security gate, but you never showed, ToT ... you OK?
Festive greetings, to you, your Lady, The Destructor, and his Big Sister.
Geez, reminds me of helping that lady with the little boy and flat tire who went and let her kid jump in the van while i was workin on it and it fell onto the jack (onto like twisted tipped over) after there was already one stuck underneath it...Great video and story, intro was awesome..
Haha! Mr. Pete, errr, I mean LP, lives about 15 miles south of here. Hoping to run into him at auction some time.
*I especially liked the inserts of objects found amongst the metal chips. An object found that you'd been looking for for some time. The object found that you didn't even know was missing. The object found that even though you weren't sure what it's real purpose was, you were pretty sure it had no business being there. Merry Christmas to you and yours as I look forward to a whole New Year of TOT.*
A dom booth as the cop was the best 🤘
Tony you tell your story how ever you want and use what ever brush you want to clean your machines, it’s all good by me! I’m old now and your teaching and old man new tricks, you have good holidays.
The instant I heard Mr. Pete on the phone I started laughing like a "patient" and had to excuse myself from Christmas dinner.
The way you all collaborate is iconic. Still hoping to see a cameo from AvE who sounds suspiciously like John Goodman the actor to me
Aw man. Now I have the urge to clean up my hobby room. Thanks TOT and merry Christmas to all y’all.
Oh, that nice feeling when this T-thing cleans a slot on a milling machine table
Very satisfying, fer sure.
Now that was one verbal headlock I didn't mind staying comfortably nestled in. Merry Christmas!
Best Christmas story ever. You should write books.
Reminiscent of Ronnie Corbett's segment in the TV show called the Two Ronnies (back in the 70s). Wonderful meandering. Thanks ToT for a great year and wishing you and your family all the best for 2020. Cheers, David
I hope he got a shop vacuum cleaner for Christmas!
Thank you for another fun video. Always a good time. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Oh my goodness! I just watched this and am literally laughing out loud. Way to go Tony, great story!
This story has stuck with me for a year now. I think about it every once in a while, and it always brings a smile to my face. Thank you TOT!
I’m now having a conundrum, I don’t believe your shop ever gets this dirty but I also don’t know how you could make them look so convincingly dirty looking.
A clean shop is a shop that either rarely gets used, or it was just cleaned before the next project.
Actually, shops get dirty without you being there. You don't ever actually have to work, the chips just manifest themselves in the chip trays and on all control surfaces. I have years of evidence of this...
@@Hawk013 that sounds roughly like my experience but I get a mixture of sawdust and grinder dust on everything instead of proper chips.
@@garethbaus5471 you guys are telling me that you don't do a marginal clean after every use? My shop ain't sparkles but there's no metal shavings to be seen. Cleaning the shavings after every use keeps it from "manifesting" I suppose 😂
@@EAGLINWRX I try to remove as much as possible off of surfaces to reduce the fire hazard but at least with most of the stuff I do it can take an hour or 2 for everything to settle.
Who could have thought a cleaning story video would be so relaxing! Jeez! Harry christmas, and keep the shop clean!
LOL haha! coffee connoisseurs were called "weirdos" back then!
@Evi1M4chine Jeez don't come to Melbourne, Australia then because this city is coffee mad. Starbucks didn't stand a chance here with the crap swil they call coffee.
Lol too good of a story. Especially thinking about LP checking all the fence posts in hindsight. Merry Christmas!
Tot is secretly a comedy writer/master machinist for some big network I’m sure. Merry Christmas from his biggest fan y’all.
Justin Maynard I think this old Tony is Ray Romano.
What a beautiful, touching story...
Merry Christmas!!!
I can't believe I missed the LP reference all the way to the phone call
Good one Tony
You're a wonderful story teller.
Thanks for the video.
God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Tony our hero
Is working on Christmas Day
To save us all from sloth's power
By cleaning out the chip tray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Of all the wonderfully rambling Christmas stories I have ever heard, ToT, this is one of them.
Best Christmas gift ever. A TOT video.
A place for everything. I just enjoyed watching a man clean his shop and I didn't have to interrupt or answer a car horn the whole time.
-"Hazelnut indeed!"
Couldn't resist when in saw it. Very fun, Merry Xmas Tony and All....
I used to work for "The City" too. A pretty accurate description of the interpersonal dynamics and expected behaviors. I suppose they are all like that. I was the Tech at the Sewage Treatment Plant. A stinky job but pretty good pay and lots of "benefits". All the brown trout you could... never mind. One of our co-workers was like "LP". If you made eye contact you were pegged down for at least 25 minutes. Thanks ToT for punching the Nostalgia Button, or was that the broaching machine that you used? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, from outside the chain link fence. I'm grateful to be here.
Tony ----- I watch this video every time I feel down, lifts me every time ! ------ 2 years later, and who knows how many views, and I just got the LP joke !! we all love Lyle ! ------- TOT, Mr. Pete, and AB ------ you own You Tube ! ------ I do like Quin as well mind !
As an ex Correctional Officer who now works for The County, I related to so much of this story lol
Elaborate?
Thanks for the gift of Mister Pete, Tony.
Cheers!
To all, and a new year...
Man, you know how to spin a yarn. Here's to a great 2020.
I've resisted the massive temptation to watch your last three videos. I've just binge-watched all three. *Best. Crimbo. Prezzie. Evar!*
This is therapeutic I swear
Thank you for sharing your amazing story. Merry Christmas To You and your family. God bless
I woke up on Christmas, in empty house,
nothing was stirring, except for that mouse. I grabbed my cell phone, to check on the time, and maybe CZcams to see what's online. And that's when I see a new upload from Tony, and it's a true story not phoney baloney. As usual it's funny, it cost little money, but did I just watch a guy clean? So on this Christmas day all I have to say, is: Merry Christmas This Old Tony!
Joy to you sir, TOT Christmas special, marvelous 👍
Merry Christmas This Old Tony, from Saudi Arabia 🎄 🌴
Merry Christmas Happy New Year to you all...… Your Wicked, always wondered why Mr Pete looked surprised.. Happy new year to him as well.
Merry Christmas ToT,
how is it that thousands of viewers will sit and watch you clean your shop? That is pretty cool.
I have just spent 15 minutes essentially watching you clean your tooling/workshop T.O.T!?! And I am not disappointed.
Thank you sir, have a Merry Christmas. I look forward to your videos in the new year
That must be one of the longest joke setups I have ever seen. But the punchline: Priceless!
The LP story is tops... Merry Christmas from Australia TOT.
Mr. Pete = Very Danger
Murray Chrittmas TOT,
Crit. Mass? I think the holidays this year are going to be particularly radiant!
Amazing content this year, Tony! Thank you for sharing it with us! 👍😁🌲🍾
I have to pause ... he mentioned "morgue" and "sweltering", and it's time for my Christmas meal. I'll check in later ...
have you finished watching yet?
Another classic...Merry Christmas TOT and all the rest...
Now I don't know which parts of this story were true and which were not. Dang it.
Goddamit the phone ring punchline. OH YOU SONOFA.....
What does mrpete222 think about all this haha
Just use your imagination on this one.
I think the very end with the phone call from Mr Pete was true. Lol.

@@Carnac311 Well put.
Thanks for the Christmas laugh . Marry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and yours.
I should give you a thumbs down for the longest shaggy dog story, but like others, the story made my Christmas night merry as you wove the tangled web. Merry Christmas TOT, by the way, the security guard image made me think of ABOM, not sure why...
Thanks Tony for another year of entertainment from your videos.... Merry chrismas and happy new year.....
