James Kilroy- You and me both Keith, McMaster-Carr rocks! Great work around the shop, if I lived nearby I would be regular there.
Brian Streufert- Keith, what is the name of the audio track that you play when you are focusing on the machining of the bushing in the video? I absolutely love it.
Aaron Sumner- I live in ga, the museum is about 3 hrs away. Hope to come check it out soon. Love your work especially brining life back i to old equipment.
Abom79- Nice mixture of subjects this week Keith! I love the FF clips with your hammer. That's great your having the follow rest casted, and I look forward to seeing that project unfold. Good to see Andy again helping out around the shop, and doing some of the machine work too. Hey, I now have the K&T running. Sounds great!Thanks for this weeks share!Adam
Marcus White- I am not a machinest but I really enjoy watching your videos, thank you Keith. I was wondering if you were to have a vat of primer could you dip a part in it to add thickness to account for shrinkage before sending it to the foundry?
Randy Richard- The planer matcher is almost there, I am ready to see it in operation. Thanks for the great video.Randy
jusb1066- thanks for the vid, and thanks for changing the music, the one you was using was too clangy for me!
Andy Knowlton- Thanks for the opportunity to help out around the shop. I look forward to volunteering my time to help out with the projects at the museum and at the same time getting to learn more about machining and restoration.
made by steve- Keith another great video I have learned a lot from you and others. that said can you do me a favor and iron out the folds in your apron pockets they are driving me crazy...thanks
russhellmy- I do a lot of casting jobs for our customers working with a ferrous foundry to craft replacements of worn out parts, we often use car body filler to add material to surfaces that need to be built-up for later metal removal processes. It's easy to shape with rasps and other hand tools and it's also hard wearing if you need to make a bunch of impressions.Keep the videos coming.Cheers
Swarf Rat- Keith,Thanks for the interesting mix of things going on. Are you going to have bronze "working" surfaces on your follow rest or put bearings (cam followers) on them like Keith Fenner? Thanks again for helping to preserve our mechanical heritage. Your work is very important in that respect. I would love to be there helping. Like I have said before, Georgia is not just around the corner from California, unfortunately!Thank you so much for sharing!Have a good one!Dave
Chris Anderson- I would really love to see how you work the follower into a pattern
TheDisorderly1- Great video Keith. Don't be shy Andy. You're doing a fine job.
Jack Hoying- A real nice mix of work. After seeing the planer in this video, it seems bigger than I remembered and is probably of similar size to the one in the photo I sent you.
Bill Blackburn- Hi KeithAnother great Video as usual. Could you possibly take some pictures of the Follower parts after you have added the extra material? Thanks.Willy
Razor Works- Congratulations Keith,As of the time of this post, you have all likes on this video! I too enjoyed seeing the things getting finished. Great job as usual.Razor!
Andy Coakes- great video Keith really enjoyed watching the machining . will you be doing a video on the machining of the steady rest i will be looking forward to that one and also seeing the vance planner matcher working wont be long now i hope keep the fantastic videos rolling out
James Keywood- I have never done any work with patterns for cast iron but wondered when you are trying to build up an area for machining if you could use sheet wax. It comes in a wide variety of thicknesses and is very moldable and has adhesive backing that will stick to the parent material. You can apply multiple layers to obtain any thickness and can also shape it, such as adding in draft angles or squaring up surfacess. We get a lot of wax from Freeman Supply. It was just a thought to help make your life easier.

david sanderson- hi Keith i like this style of video lots of different jobs sorted, one question are taper pins hardened or soft i would have thought hard but they machined very easily keep up the good work Dave
camojoe2- Enjoyed the vid Keith, it's great to see some of the "behind the scenes" work that goes on.Sorry i missed your working weekend, it would've been a blast to meet the guys.I did see an old friend in that video, a cat named Johnny Holland.I was his lead man when we worked at Boeing, GA. years ago.Regards,Duck
Yan Wo- Keith. I'd love to see the foundry in operation. All your videos are great! Jon
Fred Miller- Thanks for letting us tag along with you in the shop. A great varied number of small jobs all interesting in their own way. Best- Fred
222varminter- Great video, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this project mix! Makes me want to spend more time in my humble home workshop! Thank you! :)
Jeffrey Pfeifer- Hey Keith... glad you liked the vertical power feed knob I sent along! I found it on eBay in a collection of Index parts stripped from an Index 747 mill. When I got my Index 845 it had a wooden round knob and was also missing another... so I know the feeling. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to give back after all you've shared and continue to share with us.
ShawnMrFixit Lee- good work..
Flip de boer- fine video again, Keith. thank you.
arkansas13- Keith, loved seeing all of the various shop work. A great video.Thanks....13
tom7601- Great idea with a this 'n that video!Tom - Vista, ca
raymond sinnott- Always enjoy your videos Keith . Like your music tracks too , Slan go foillBye for now
Kenneth Bartlett- Thanks Keith for another great video. This was a two cups of coffee video and it made my morning. Ah Sunday morning, sitting back and watching the professionals work. Sure looking forward to seeing that thing put back together.
Dan Whiteford- Great video, I enjoyed watching you tackle that wide range of tasks.
Chuck Branch- love your videos
Billy T- I was wondering how you made "extra" room for the casting to allow machining to take place afterwards. thank you for that explanation Keith.
RoSi4You- Simply amazing sir!
tom7601- I remember working with raw castings. When drilling, milling, or sawing, you, as my mentor said, "Gotta hit it and don't stop 'til you get through the surface." Hesitation, letting the drill or mill spin on the surface, will take the edge off a tool like you were running it on sandpaper. There's always a micro thin layer of sand on the surface of the casting and plunging through it makes for happy cutting edges... :>))Tom - Vista, CA
WhateverYuotuber- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🔩
Allan Brooker- Glad to have you back Keith! Its a drag having to work for a living, as well as trying to having fun. Question; Couldn't you machine a base plate from solid for the stead rest ? that would be worth watching ?. Cheers Allan From NZ
Csab- Fun to watch
