  • During are drive north up to IMTS, we stopped in Utica, Illinois to visit with Mr. Pete and see his shop. We had a great time hanging out together as well grilling some dinner together a couple nights and even going on a hike in Starved Rock State Park. If you don't know who Mr. Pete is please visit his channel and give him a sub. He's a retired machine shop teacher and publishes weekly machine shop educational videos to help others learn about the machining trades.

    This is one epic video by 2 great machinists of 2 generations and it's not out with the old and in with the new, but I'm guessing more than a century of craftmanship that each can teach the other about.
    Thanks for a wonderful guys.

    Mr. Pete was the first UA-camr I found when I was trying to figure out my new-to-me Atlas lathe years ago. Then I found some young dude named Abom who was doing his very first videos and obviously nervous on the camera, but he knew his trade extremely well. I've learned learned so much from both of you gentlemen, and I'm grateful to you both. Glad to see that you have become friends.

    Time 17:00.... "Lots of toolboxes" . Yes. What's in them? No marking on the drawers.... Search until found as I do with my 12 drawers? Joking!
    What space does Mrs Pete have? Joking!
    Very nice pictures from the walk in the nature.

    @7:48 Funny thing. I have a TON (almost literally) of Craftsman tools (before the Chinesium ones). My Mother and Father both worked for Sears in the early '50s (that's how they met). He used to joke that everything in his house came from Sears, Including his wife! I ALSO worked for Sears for three years (in the mid '70s) to pay for my ASMET degree! Sad how a once great company is about to go Tango Uniform! I knew when they got rid of the catalog ordering it was on the decline. 😠

    Mr. Pete is a gem.. and so are you. The respect you showed him goes so far into how we should treat not only our elders, but everyone. You showed a true appreciation even though the machines may be smaller than your shop. You recognized the knowledge, precision and time. This was a good one for us. Thank you.

    Adam, when I watched the video of Mr. Peterson interviewing you, I sent Mr. Peterson a message suggesting that you interview him. He said that was a great idea, but that you had already left. He never let it slip that the video interview had already been done! I have to say, that your two channels are my favorite ones to watch. As I've told Mr. Peterson, all through Junior High and High School my favorite classes were metal shop and Mr. Peterson reminds me so much of my shop teachers back then. Those classes were the only reason I wanted to go to school and the teachers were the best. By the way, I'm 70 years old now and have my own home shop. While I may have the equipment in my shop, I don't think I'll ever have the skill either one of you possess!

    I have a question. Why have we begun to remove Machining from High Schools in our country? It seems we are removing the skills that young men and woman need in life to build confidence heading into this tough world we live in and sending them out without a single skill needed to survive. Autoshop, Metal Shop, Wood Shops all getting shut down. It's a shame really.

      probably because it adds an enormous amount of liability rider to a local school board insurance coverage. I took HS shop (and loved it) back in 1983... we made flat blade screwdrivers and had to heat treat them in an enormous 1960s era gas fired furnace. Mr. Boyer (our Magnum P.I. clone teacher) said, "when I light it, don't look into it!" One guy did and singed all his facial off, especially eyebrows... nuff said... he was a moron but also the least common denominator. Instead of dropping our of school and getting a job, the rest of us had to endure his humor!

    I had that micrometer for the South bend mill that was in my grandfather's tools. Had no idea of what it was for or what it went to. I saw Mr. Pete's video when he got the mill and sent him the micrometer.
