The production quality is just as dazzling as the work Chris does. I wonder how much in real time is spent completing a 29:19 video such as this. I don’t believe you will find better quality videos on UA-cam.
I am now restoring antique pocket watches and i have designed and am building a forged iron gate that is actually a forged iron clock, and its all your fault. From watching your videos. You inspired me. I have been a metals craftsman for 50 years and i am still learning.
Though I do not think my comment on a prior video requesting more on the Sherline had any impact on the making of this video, this is exactly what I was requesting. Thank you, and I look forward to many more videos. You inspire me so much, and seeing your shoe-box shop makes me feel like I can do so much more with my even smaller work area.
I love the way you do tiny screws. It's so clear all the attention to detail you employ to go far beyond the precision and functionality of garden variety, hardware-store screws. That includes the cut that keeps the threads from reaching all the way to the head. I can just feel how cleanly the assembly with the those screws will go together. The results are so clean and beautiful. Ah, but everyone who follows this channel knows this.
The mirror blue finish on his screws makes me weak in the knees. He does work in his shop exactly the same way that I do in my head. The only thing I lack in my quest to be as good as Chris is time, tools, materials, funding, patience, knowledge, skill, experience, organization, talent, and a voice that’s like butter dripping off a hot biscuit.
As a professional video editor, I deeply appreciate that the level of skill and artistry you put into your metal work is the same level of skill and artistry that you put into your edits. Just beautiful to watch. I rewatched 26:14 several times.
@@AgentWestI have no idea how he did it. How I would do it: Point a camera at scene 1 and use the live feed to mark the edges of the visible camera frame with tape. Measure the coordinate of the plate you want to do the visual effect with relative to the tape. Your goal is to place a dot sticker at the center of where the plate ends up after throwing it in scene 1. Now setup scene 2 and tape around the edges of the visible video feed again and place the dot sticker in the same relative location as from scene 1, and place the plate exactly on that dot with the same relative orientation. Now do a blend transition from scene 1 to scene 2. The effect will be as if the plate is thrown from scene 1 into scene 2, with just the background changing.
Either it was a happy accident or it was intentional. How I'd do it: gently toss it down as he did. Take the camera to the new location, changing nothing about the camera or tripod (except height if the new surface is greatly different from the old surface. Play the video back and note the location and rotation of the part. Place the part down as close as possible. Since it's a still image, I'd rotate the part around a few degrees, and capture a few frames of each orientation. Then in my editing software, I'd find the closest take, and digitally correct for any discrepancies (scale, rotation, position).
@@AgentWest id say by either adjusting the aspect ratio and or cropping the images with an overlay tool. Tik tok even has this feature I believe. Helps with looping video
You have taken cinematography, story telling and machining to a gold standard yet you explain everything in such a palatable way, I take my hat off to you.
Honest to Gods, I'd watch a video of you making toast, Chris - all your films are works of art and the attention to detail you bring to every operation is incredible. The fact that you take us along for the ride making these beautiful tools and we get to learn so much about machining in the process is just wonderful. Thank you for doing what you do! Charlotte
This is far and away the best machining content on youtube. Maybe Inheritance Machining comes close. One of the few channels that is a must watch immediately from me. The attention to detail, the clear explanations, the exquisite finishes, its like candy for my brain.
Those and This old Tony and Blondihacks are my 4 top favorites. MrPete tubelcane if you are starting out with manual machines is pretty good too.oh, and Joe Pie.
It annoys me no end that Chris has such a modest shop. He won’t even leave me that excuse. His shop tools are more beautiful than any finished piece I’ve ever created. He polished the arbor to his faceplate for Mr. Pete’s sake!
It's always a good day when you get a longer Clickspring video starting with "G'day". To have another multi-video project is all I could want for the New Year. Thank you! :)
I've worked in machine building industry for almost twenty years, seing a multitude of lathe operators. Not one could get the precision you are able to achieve seemingly without any issues! I'm very impressed again of your work
These videos are months apart... i think a lot of off-camera work and thinking goes into all this. At work, things always have to be done yesterday, concessions are inevitable.
Isn’t there that saying? “Measure twice, cut once.” He probably does a lot of planning, trying to think about all the possibilities that could go wrong before they do. Although I definitely do think that certain parts (like the painstaking engraving) do take far longer than others. He might be spacing them out to make it a more consistent upload schedule.
Thanks for this end of year treat, Chris! I did miss your calm voice, the brilliant filming and editing and, of course, the careful and precise machining that became your trade mark 🙂 Have a great 2023!
I've got a 1973 Sherline (built in Melbourne), and as much as I love it I don't think it's anywhere near as accurate as these newer American made versions. Plus metric would be a huge bonus.
@@IOUaUsername In his writing about establishing Sherline in the USA, the late Joe Martin did state that he found the original Sherline a bit 'rough', requiring fettling before shipping to retailers. He shortly started manufacture in the USA and bought the entire business.
I was very surprised when you revealed your work space. The Antikythera mechanism you did, I thought it was huge. Like someone else commented as soon as you post I have to watch no matter what your creating. Thank you.
It is always an immense pleasure to watch someone who is so meticulous turn something on the lathe. Your work comes off the lathe with the finish quality that many people get after they've gone through all of their post-turning finishing. It truly is wonderful.
A master piece on multiple levels, design, engineering, manufacturing and not to mention story telling and presentation. Thanks for making the world a better place!
oh my goodness, I had no idea that aluminum could alloy with copper to make a kind of bronze. that's so cool! and i looked it up and its harder than mild steel! this is actually a game changer for me. thank you
It's counter intuitive that three soft metals (tin being the other) would combine to form a hard one. Aluminium bronze is indeed an incredible material with heroic virtues. The only copper alloy in common use which is more than a match for it is the same with a bit of nickel.
By the way, having Swiss ancestors in the music box and clockmaking industries in the 19th century, my pride in such heritage has seriously gone up after watching you!
I do love these longer videos with Chris's explanations. The inventiveness, engineering, and videography always makes some thing to watch, not just have as background.
Chris, i have been in awe of what you do for a long time now, and I want to thank you for sharing your skills with us. You go WAAAAAAY beyond the requirements to show us an example of what's possible with simple attention to detail, and great care in the overall finish. This video shows how it's possible to make something that has beauty in itself, beyond the necessary with small workshop equipment. I wish i had the funds to learn what you do and aquire the necessay lathe, milling machine etc. Oh well maybe lotto this weekend ... But thank you for many many hours of enjoyment you've given me watching you turn lumps of metal into things of beauty.
That is some really gorgeous tool making. I work on substantially larger machine tools, it's a real joy to watch such fine finishing on such tiny parts. I inherited my grandfather's watch maker's lathe a few years ago when my father passed. I believe I will make such a plate, even though I doubt I will ever do such work as demands it. I fiddle around a bit with clocks and watches but nothing like major work. Very nicely done, I love the look of aluminum bronze, I've done a fair bit of work in it on props and couplings for fishing boats about twenty years ago, working in Morehead City, NC. We did shafts six inches in diameter, twenty odd feet long, and the props and couplings for Tiara Yachts. We made a couple hundred pounds of chips a day, cutting the couplings and the props.
The other day i had the cance to rravel to las vegas, and by chance got in front of a store selling very expensive watches, Breguet, Langue and the like, my appreciation for watchmaking in general and this channel in particular has nothing but increased since then, what people like you are able to make is almost magical.
I just love how deep the rabbit hole of making and finishing a tool or part used just to make or finish another tool goes, as well as the craftsmanship and precision employed at every step of the process.
I follow you since few years now. I'm french clockmaker student and love all your video. If I need keep only one youtuber, it will be you. I think it's important to thanks you for this amazing job! 😁
Your machining and design skills truly are top notch, and every video on both channels is always a good watch. You're my favorite machinist on UA-cam, and that's quite the high bar. Keep up the great work Chris.
Watching Clickspring work I cannot help but think I've been completely wasting my life. - His level of work is just incredible - just for context I'm a moderately good wood butcher, and I don't do any form of engineering, metal or othewise, but just watching him work is mindblowing how skilled and precise some people can be.
I really appreciate the idea to mark a dot on the start and end of the curve points, and then the later transference to the degrees scale on the rotary table. I have tripped up with this kind of curved slot in the past, but your technique will make it much easier and more reliable in future. Thanks! Craig
I couldn't do this in a million but it's so soothing and satisfying to watch. It tickles parts of my brain that don't get appropriate attention. Thanks!
Those tolerances are NO JOKE!!! I have that same interapid indicator and getting it sit still like that is next to impossible! I am just amazed! Great work!
I regularly watch *_Cutting Edge Engineering_* videos, and I find it fascinating that both you and Kurtis have a similar approach to accuracy, despite some of the limitations in your equipment. Even more fascinating is the fact that you and Karen have a brilliant knowledge of engineering Videography from an educational point of view.
I'm a machinist by trade and watching you making parts on simple machines without any prototrak is amazing. And learning new ways to machine that I haven't seen is always fun. Keep up the good work
One more, Chris comes up with a bit of tooling I didn't realise I needed! Something like this will solve some very tricky workholding challenges I'm having with tiny intricate parts of microwave antenna systems. Beautiful editing, lighting and background defocus as always. A proper treat.
In addition to being an obviously brilliant and exacting machinist, I never fail to notice what a talented filmmaker you are. Your productions are a joy to watch. Keep it up.
I do believe you are the only person that I have loved and hated at the exact same time for the exact same thing. Thank you for this amazing inspiration and knuckle chewing envy. Never stop doing what you do.
Chris, I don't have a lathe nor the space to craft like I would want. I only understand about half of what you do, but I am going to have to live my creativity through you. I love your work and I have followed your channel for several years now. Thank you so much for what you do and your decision to share it with us.
Have you seen Chris’s recent video tour of his workshop? Unless you’re into crafting large scale objects, it seems even a broom-closet-sized room can suffice. ;)
Didn't even read the video title. As soon as I seen your icon I knew it was gonna be a treat.
Who ever reads the description? I think we all see Clic-PLAY we don’t even get to the K let alone Spring😂
These videos are the only machinist content that make me jealous I work not with metal, but wood.
Exactly!
It's time for popcorn and a bit of relaxation watching Chris work his magic. 😁
The production quality is just as dazzling as the work Chris does. I wonder how much in real time is spent completing a 29:19 video such as this. I don’t believe you will find better quality videos on UA-cam.

Are you a little bit jalous ! LOL !
You can be sure that I am ! LOL !
No one has commented on the brilliant editing yet?! I loved it!
The commentary is top notch as well.
His editing is always amazing. He obviously puts a lot of thought into how he shoots, so the video looks as good as the parts he's machining... :)
Chris and That old Tony are both amazing for editing, commentary and storytelling.
I particularly enjoyed the Foley work on this one. Great stuff yet again.
Amazing no scratches
Blurring the lines between engineering and art. A genuine craftsman at work! A pleasure to watch as always Chris. 👍
As a professional video editor, I deeply appreciate that the level of skill and artistry you put into your metal work is the same level of skill and artistry that you put into your edits. Just beautiful to watch. I rewatched 26:14 several times.
How would that even be done without CGI? A camera setting that combines a transparent still image with live feed to perfectly match the two?
@@AgentWestI have no idea how he did it. How I would do it:

_"I'd watch a video of you making toast"_

I thought they called it a faceplate because it has a flat face for attachment, and not because it looks like a face.

There are good few now, which haven't turned into unboxing sponsor video channels, there is a very good Reddit list, of which this is on.

Both yours and Chris' channels are my guilty pleasure, really cool to see your comment of support for Chris

The tolerance achieved here is astounding to me. Seeing the indicator barely even flutter from 0 in a home shop setting is quite the achievement!
When he said "in the next episode" I was baffled that 29 minutes had already passed!
OMG, I've read "Facepalm" when UA-cam suggested me the video out of nowhere. Watched it and was very satisfied. Thank you very much 🙂
Thank you mate, terrific to have watching :)
More content on Sherline! Thanks for putting this out there, most machining seems to be on huge lathe/mills which requires lots of money and space.
Very much enjoy both Clickspring and Cutting Edge Engineering. Opposite ends of the size spectrum, same care and precision.

The amount of setup and tool making is amazing that alone the finished item is still only a tool/jig itself. The plate sure looks surprised. 🍻
