Rusty Deadlocked Vise - Restoration (the 3rd)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лис 2022
- In this video I'm restoring a very small rusty and deadlocked Gressel bench vise. Its jaws are just 80mm wide. My friend has found this tiny vise on the steel waste and I thought this would be cool for a video.
On first sight it was only seized and had some additional holes. When disassembling I also quickly realized that something on the half round part was not right and after sandblasting I also saw pretty deep damages near the jaws. To disassemble the movable jaw I quickly made a tool to open the vise. There's also a video about that on my second channel „my mechanics insights“, link below.
I closed the two additional holes with slight press fit plugs and closed the gap with welding. After filing the welds flush the two holes completely disappeared.
There was a bit of a mess with the threads at the half round part, so I decided to close them all with very tight press fitted plugs and cut two new M4 threads. That worked very well and these plugs will never ever come out again.
On the other deep damages I decided to weld up new material with cast iron stick welding rod. That was my very first time stick welding. Was a bit tricky to get used to it, but the end result turned out very well. I was able to file and sand all surfaces perfectly clean afterwards.
I decided to paint this vise in a nice red (RAL3011) with white highlights on the lettering.
As the spindle only had very little rust, I was able to clean it very nicely with rust remover, wire brush, some sandpaper and Scotch Brite.
For the remaining parts I first removed the deep pitting, removed the sharp edges, recut the threads and then sandblasted them to remove the remaining rust and make a nice and even texture on the sanded surfaces. To darken all these parts I used the method of hot bluing.
As the rough pattern of the jaws were in pretty good condition I decided to restore them. After a night in the rust remover and a bit of wire brushing the jaws already looked pretty good. I also had to bend them as they were a bit out of shape. As they're just case hardened this worked very well. Then I sanded all the surfaces clean, chamfered all edges and applied cold bluing to darken them.
In the end I'm very happy how this little bench vise has turned out. In my opinion the red looks very nice together with the black steel parts and the shiny sanded surfaces and the white details of the lettering are just the cherry on top.
I hope you like my work and the video.

This is an ASMR style video. Especially made to have the best sound quality, so you can enjoy all the authentic sounds created in the workshop in ASMR style.
If you have any questions about the process, machines i'm using or other stuff, just ask me in the comments. I read them all and i try to reply as soon as possible.
Sorry for my bad english, it's not my language. I try my best to improve my technical english.
Subscribe for more of my content. I'm uploading videos about mechanical stuff, as new creations and buildings and also restorations.
Thank you for watching :-)

My theory is that the earth is round because My Mechanics removed all the sharp edges
LOL
My theory is that the Earth is flat because My Mechanics used sanding and filler.
My theory is that My Mechanics will probably make a new one.
@@b5670 Agreed. The original was too far gone to save.
The Earth spins because we're in a lathe.
You’ve done more for Gressel vise sales than any advertising they’ve done in the last 100 years 😂
Word!
@@mymechanics I actually bought one a few months back ... (Second hand tho, in good original condition)
@@PointlessMiracle that just goes to show how quality in a product can really make a difference when it comes to longevity.
I would like to find one.
Great work....Looks better then it did when it was new.
long live my mechanics, the arch enemy of all sharp edges
They have no chance ;-)
I have a seven year old daughter who has previously never shown any interest in mechanics or engineering, but she adores your videos. We both sit and watch them together after school; I think you have inspired a future engineer!
Great work as always.
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
Same here, 11 yo girl and 5 yo boy. And it's very relaxing for all of us. Thanks
Me and my 14 old daughter also
И мой сын любит смотреть моя механика.
That's nice to hear. When I studied mechanical engineering 15 years ago we had 2 girls out of 30 or so people, wish it was more balanced.
I am a lady in her mid-seventies with no interest or aptitude in engineering or mechanics, but oh! how I love to watch you repair these damaged tools and restore them to a state of beauty and a second life. I particularly enjoy it when you make a tool to help you solve some problem. I am so impressed by the filming and editing of your projects. Your work is far superior to that of any other restoration channel. Thank you for the pleasure it has given me over the years.
"far superior to that of any other restoration channel"?
How many have you seen?
Don't pick on all the others with one sentence. Wow lady.
@@chezchezchezchez She's right though.
@@chezchezchezchez Gee, I wonder if you have a restoration channel?
@@chezchezchezchez I think MM is literally the best out there. I watch a dozen others, but I think all of them actually sing praise to MM in their works from time to time. The dedication, the picture, the complete control he has over the projects make him stand out.
I think the most noticeable thing is that he doesn't just "restore" the things - more often than not he's making them almost better than they ever were.
I am not joining the Discussion about " who has best repair Channel"..
But RRC Channel is certainly fun and satisfying to watch as well😉
You aren't demonstrating restorations; you're demonstrating a way of working. Clarity of thought, mindfulness in process, and quality of output. You'd be surprised how often your videos have affected my life in completely unrelated situations.
Wow, thank you!
Tell us about those situations, philosophy is always nice to share
Do the job right the first time. Your work Ethic is an extension of how are you operate and the rest of your life
WWMMD- what would my mechanics do…..😂
Yeah same, i took some college classes on welding because of this channel
I think I speak for everybody when I say we all look forward to your videos
Thanks for your support :-)
Maybe the most satisfying moment on this channel watching the old drill bit come out and setting new perfect bolt holes.
I felt like Indiana Jones there
@@mymechanics 😂
The snap sound a bolt makes when coming loose is somehow amazingly satisfying and terrifying at the same time.
I totally agree
Yeeeessssss!
Yeah that apprehensive moment while you wonder if _the whole_ bolt came loose...
I was a school bus mechanic for over 30 years. usually for me that "snap" meant get out the punch,drill, and tap, cause the sucker broke off! Even heating and spraying! Oh well, we were always in too big a hurry! Haha.
If the snap comes right as the bolt moves for the first time, you're good. If it comes right after the bolt seems to move, although quite slowly and difficultly, then you're most likely screwed.
What is maybe not so immediately obvious to your viewers is that you are as meticulous and precise with your videography and editing as you are with your machining. It's a joy to see someone who takes so much pride in getting it exactly right. Thanks for all you do.
True! One of the very few channels I watch in normal speed (this is a huge compliment!) and it is sooo satisfying.
When it's done right, it goes unnoticed.
I see people complement his editing from time to time.
It's immediately obvious
@@CalvinHikes immediately obvious
I truly would like to thank you for the hue change when you start to weld it is greatly appreciated
Glad you like it :-)
БЕСКОНЕЧНО уважаю тех, кто не даёт окончательно помереть старой технике.
Конечно, не с такой скурпулёзностью, как автор этого и подобных видео, я спасаю из небытия найденные на помойках ( уж простите за прямоту), старые инструменты.
Начиная с советсих, и заканчивая самым старым, что попалось - струбцины 1872 года, если память не изменяет, там на корпусе дата отлита.
Я их особо не восстанавливал, просто смазал и использую успешно.
Слава старым конструкторам и мастерам, изготовившим инструмент, прошедший через века, в буквальном смысле, и сохранивший полностью свой функционал!
Ура!
Они - "соль земли", и не обязательно Русской, чудо- мастера везде были и есть, только их не пускают корпорации, увы, это неизбежный на данном этапе развития человечества, факт, весьма примюскорбный...
Я вообще считаю преступлением вот просто так выбросить и физически, и из истории, образцы техники.
Ведь в каждом из них - частица "божьей искры", вдохновения изобретателя, это нельзя забывать!
Многое из того, что видишь в старинных вещах, сейчас вообще не используется, а могло бы приносить пользу, и это по меньшей мере странно.
Конкретно, по моим струбцинам - система быстрой настройки на нужный размер.
Да, сейчас подобный функционал есть но он основан на скольжении вдоль направляющей с микронасечками.
Большого усилия нк добьёшься.
А мой вариант позволяет развивать штатное усилие на любом диапазоне размеров, и это просто чудо, я считаю .
Может, дело в законах касающихся патентов и не позволяюших без оплаты, воспроизводить и
то или иное решение, я не знаю, я не юрист.
Но, право, обидно, что порой институты бьются над какой-либо задачей, а она давно решена мастером-самоучкой из деревни Мухосраново!
В космос на их изобретениях, конечно, не полетишь, но ручной труд облегчить можно, главное захотеть!
Тысяча лайков автору, жаль реально можно поставить лишь один!
I watch tons of restoration videos from all sorts of different UA-camrs, but somehow yours always end up just being on another level. Not that the others are lacking in any way, yours are just the best.
The editing, the production, the quality of the finished product, etc…
I’ve also noticed that you keep the always seem to know precisely how long to show us each of the repetitive steps like filing, sanding, sand blasting each part, etc. so that we get the idea without it getting boring. Even though you may spend 10 minutes or something sandblasting a part, we only see a few seconds. I appreciate it as a viewer.
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
Agree. The timing is perfect.
he could easily make a online seminar for videos about restoration content and it would be by far the best to exist
The shots are beautifully lit and framed as well. As you said, the editing is perfectly timed. Another thing I appreciate is the sound quality. He captures every sonic detail without anything sounding harsh at the end. It's purely soothing.
I found mymechanics first.
I can't watch any other restoration channels.
Your channel is often imitated but never bettered. Your work is head and shoulders above anyone and anywhere else.
You take a decades old piece of junk and make it better than brand new; you turn it into art!
Your skill, attention to detail and pursuit of perfection make you the very best and I await your videos probably more than any other on UA-cam. Please keep amazing us with your work!
Thank you very much, I really do appreciate it :-)
yes all other restoration channels are gangster until My Mechanics releases a new video....
@@mymechanics I will say, you have ruined restoration videos for me. I simply cannot enjoy them if they are not as attention to detail as yours is now😮💨
Absolutely for real - my late father bought one of these vices at Flemmington Markets in Sydney, Australia - it was stuffed up and he fixed it up. He then packed it up in WD40 and newspaper and it lived under a table in his house for about a decade until he passed and I had to manage his estate and I found it. I use it in my new workshop and it is fantastic. The quality of things people had; I love it and every time I use it I think of my father and the things he told me and did. Thanks for posting this video!
Cool story, thanks for sharing :-)
I don't know about anyone else, but I love when stuck things finally pop. That's when you know you got it.
Me too, very satisfying!
You know, I have a lot to do right now… but I see My Mechanics upload, I stop and take 20 minutes to see this master in action.
Glad to hear that, thank you
I love that you finally got to the tiny vise! Would be great to get a picture of all of them side by side. Gray, Green, Blue & Red. :)
Good idea!
Seconded!
Thirded 👍👍

He has what seems like a dream "job"! I'm guessing there are tedious parts too, maybe the whole video production aspect takes some fun out of it all, but man... To repair old and interesting stuff to a higher than factory standard and, hopefully, be well compensated for it is just an awesome way to live! I'm so envious!
Glad to hear that, thank you
The detail... The clear edges... the perfect paint job... this is an orgasm in video format
Watching you remove that broken drill bit was the most satisfying thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Like popping a metal pimple!
Or when the vice finally gave way with a satisfying "bang" 1:38 😌
I watched my room mate masturbate when she thought she was alone... that was pretty satisfying.
@@floridaman5125 *shudders* u right tho
I felt like Indiana Jones ;-)
There can't be too much of vise restoration. We all want it
Nice to hear that, thanks :-)
I would watch a monthly vise restoration on this channel very happily.
I love the vise's history you've uncovered with the broken-off drill bit stuck in it. Great video as always. ♥
(Fixed for misspelling vise)
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
You are the master of masters of restoration, truly the best, congratulations friend.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Your attention to detail is simply out of this world. No other Restoration Channel can even come close to that level of meticulousness
Thank you very much, I really do appreciate it :-)
I see new video of My Mechanics, I press Like first, then proceed to watch! That's how good this channel is!
Thanks a lot for your support :-)
It's too bad they don't have something similar to an Academy Award for restorations. If they did, I'd be one of many nominating you for Best Master Restorer. As always, definitely worth the wait. Nobody even comes close in terms of thoroughness and quality of finish.
Thank you very much, much appreciated :-)

My Mechanics is the "Primitive Technology" of restoration.
Primitive Technology is the "My Mechanics" of survival.
Easily among the best channels on UA-cam. Love your work!
Many many thanks :-)
Whenever you don’t write “perfect restoration” in the title, it’s sad that you’re not as happy with your handiwork. They’re all perfect to me.
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
An old tool becoming a jewel 🤗
Thank you very much
A "bit" of oil.
Drowns the damned thing.
I love it.
Of course, beautiful work as always ❤️ Can't find another channel that lives up to these standards you've spoiled us with.
Thank you very much, much appreciated :-)
That initial click when a screw breaks free. As someone who restores furniture, its so satisfying to hear.
Absolutely
Greetings to the lover of Gressel locksmith vices. As usual, a job of royal quality. Please, upload videos more often.
Many many thanks :-)
I wish to God I could get a vise that you perfected! They are things of great beauty! I'll skip the art museum and watch this instead!
Thank you very much, much appreciated :-)
I really like that you left a few imperfections and casting marks on this one. Still looks beautiful, but has a bit of character.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
Ich habe es genossen, dieses Video zu sehen. Sehr interessant !
Vielen Dank
It looks amazing - really good work. I love it when you say " I quickly made this tool" or 'I'll make another one" and then you just casually produce a clever tool or a complex machined part like its no big deal.
Tomorrow comes a video how I made the tool.
Einfach herrlich zuzuschauen, mit welcher Präzision und Ruhe der alte Schraubstock wieder zu neuem Leben erweckt wird! Vielen Dank dafür und Grüße aus Eisenhüttenstadt/Deutschland 👍
Danke für das Lob!
The only restoration channel I never speed up, and the only one I watch every single video of. Multiple times, to be exact. We - the fans - always praise your restoration work but I think we need to start praising your video editing more as well! If not for the immaculate timing of every step, your videos wouldn't be so loved and cherished ❤️
Wow, thanks!
@@mymechanics They are correct!
Erstklassige Arbeit+ Video !! saubere Darstellungen in allen Deiner Videos !! bin total begeistert
Danke dir :-)
This is not only a restoration video. This is art. You are an artist and the restoration products are only a way to show the world your talent.
Glad to hear that, thank you
0:50 I love that you always use exactly the right tool for a task. No shortcuts. It's so annoying when a channel uses too small screwdrivers, the wrong wrench, and so on. But never on this channel - huge respect!
I noticed when he took out the first two screws how perfectly the screwdriver fit. We are a weird bunch of viewers :)
Swiss made PB screwdriver for Swiss made screws. 🙂
Well said, thanks :-)
Oh, man... The turning of that finished Vise is so God damn SATISFYING?! As usual, your restorations are top notch! "Cylindrical pin is really damaged..." Oh, boy, we know it's coming... HERE IT COMES...! "I make a new one." YUSS! And out comes the lathe-craft!
Thank you so much for your support :-) much appreciated
Such a satisfying "snap" when a rusted part lets go.
Absolutely
Can you fix the world? The world is in bad shape lately 😂 It needs restoration ASAP!
Love your restoration vids and those super close up zoom details. That camera work, lighting, and editing while you file chamfers, etc. are top notch. I would watch a whole 60 minutes of your work. Cheers from Maui 🏝️
Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it :-)
Outstanding. You go further than any of the other restoration channels and repair even the tiniest damage that others leave behind. The work you did on the jaws building them up and filing back was exceptional. Love your work.
@@flat-earther No thanks, I'm not a flat earther idiot
@@flat-earther Sorry you don't understand science.
@@flat-earther The sheer weight of evidence that the earth is a globe is overwhelming, you just don't want to believe it. Flat earthers who have tried to prove the earth isn't a globe have actually proven that it is a globe, but still refuse to believe it, so what use is there in debating such morons.
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
Always a treat when a new MM video drops.
Many thanks for watching :-)
That broken drill bit was a very interesting find! I hope you kept it- that's a part of history!
The vice videos are always my favorite from you, thanks for uploading this one! I know you already have plenty of vices, but please don’t stop repairing them!
Noted!
I definitely wouldn't have patience for filing away all the welded up material. Good work.
You can do it too!
Nothing better then relaxing and watching a master work
Glad you enjoy it!
The world is MyMechanics and you are the sharp edge
haha :-)
*I am always in awe of your precise work you do in all your restorations.*
Thank you very much!
I would love to see a video on all of the custom tools and random bits of stuff you've made in the course of doing these restorations. I think it'd be a great demonstration of your ingenuity and problem-solving skills.
I would recommend becoming a Patreon member. There are near-daily vlogs, and always so much more information on everything. 🙂
check also my second channel out
I am constantly amazed how not only do you repair these things, but you actually make them better than how they were when they were new.
Glad you enjoyed the video
Bringing old tools back to life is possibly the most satisfying thing a man can do in my opinion. But I believe you made that vise better than it ever was new! The perfectly chamfered edges, the bluing and the red paint... You're an artist sir!
Honestly, with how mature this restoration side of UA-cam has become.
No video, like a My Mechanics video.
Result is so clean, he's an absolute wizard with a file.
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
I love seeing how far your shop has expanded from video to video. You have so many nice tools and machines now! You've come a long way from the old space heater video, which was the firs one of yours I watched.
Thank you very much!
Space heater video? I've never seen that one. You're sure that one is MM?
@@flat-earther the most insane part of your comment is your expectation that you could get some total stranger to watch not one but thirteen whole completely unrelated youtube videos
Yeah. The OGs remember the old damaged power button on sandblaster.
@@_Killkor And the time that he censored it so the comments wouldn't mention it lol
Not sure why, but that "pop" whenever a really old, really stuck, really rusted part finally snaps free is really satisfying.
Nothing better than a classic my mechanics vice restoration! 👍😊
Thanks for watching, much appreciated
Ive watched every single video that you’ve ever made and you’ve always produced a stunning piece of art at the end of it.
I truly believe that everything you’ve ever restored is now better than when it was new.
All the praise that you receive is very much deserved and your channel has to be one of the very best on UA-cam.
👏
Yep 👏 What they said 👆👌
Thanks a lot for being here :-)
There are countless restoration channels on UA-cam, but your work is exceptional.
much appreciated :-)
The seemingly effortless way you do these restorations and just "making a new one" or "quickly made this tool" is some how calming.
I wish there was 7 of you because I literally cannot get enough. I've seen every episode at least 2 or 3 times and find myself wishing there was more constantly. No one does it like you, keep it up because I love these so much
Odd Tinkering does similar restoration projects to this if you need more of this kind of video.
I wish I was 7 too :-)
I wish you had videos more often, but I will take quality over quantity any time and your quality is second to none. Simply beautiful.
Wow, thank you!
Another perfect restoration. Thank you for sharing it. Keep up the fantastic work.
Thanks, will do!
My prayer is small, but I pray that everyone here will always have joy and happiness with family and friends. God will be with you to protect you 🙏
Thanks you too!
I want to grow up and be "my mechanics". What an amazing craftsman!
You can do it!
Almost a work of art. Complete makeover. Congratulations
Thanks a lot
This channel is right at the borderline of OCD. The dedication and attention to the last detail is amazing. I also restored an old small 60mm YORK vice, the old, rounded model, not the current version. While I removed all rust and paint and painted new, I do not have a lathe, nor mill, nor sandblasting box, nor welder. But it turned out still pretty nice, but marks from previous use are still noticeable. I wish I had the tools, time and patience like we see on this channel. I love watching your videos, you are simply the best. The last time I used a lathe or mill was 23 years ago. I liked the manual work.
Cool story, thanks for sharing :-)
It's the thought that counts and the intent and effort. I had a stroke 3 yrs ago leaving my left arm lame. but it hasnt stopped me. you just need to figure oiut how to clamp stuff. but soldering is tricky and i need my wife to hold the solder !
beautifully taken apart and put back together. the workmanship, the care and thought, the whole shebacle (in the most positive way). incredible work my friend i always find myself admiring your work to inspire my own endeavors and am never disappointed. thank you for restoring our ancestors great works in your very own way. i know one day they’ll notice your hands although they may not know where they came from they’ll feel what i do knowing your presence.
Lately I’ve been falling asleep to the sound of the mechanical tools you use. It’s a very odd lullaby but I love it.
I couldn’t care less if you’ve restored 100 vices before. I’m still thrilled every time you release a new video! It just occurred to me with this video that you restore products to better than new. You remove the casting marks, use superior paint, add chamfers, blue some parts, and likely lubricate additional parts. I don’t have all of your tools, though I’ve learned several restoration techniques by watching your channel nevertheless. I’ve even used some of them 😊. Superb job, as always!
Thank you very much, much appreciated :-)
Perfection. Absolutely love your videos.
Thank you so much!
Pefect welding edit! No more headache from flashes.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it :-)
this, Lads and Gents is my meaning of a professional and perfect Restoration. Well done
Thank you :-)
As ever, a fantastic restoration. Thank you for the upload.
Thank you kindly!
This guy just can’t get enough gressel vices
Well... that's true
It's perfectly understandable 😃
I have one gressel vice and I want more!
My favorite part of these videos is seeing such cool items comes back to functionality in an educational way. My second favorite part is when “I make new” appears as text because you know some milling wizardry is about to happen for some obscure part
Thanks for watching, much appreciated
Yet another absolute masterpiece. Taking discarded trash and turning it into functional art is always amazing to see.
Nice to hear that, thanks :-)
You’re a true artist in every sense of the word. It’s again amazing how you restore this vice. Such a pleasure to watch. Thanks again
much appreciated :-)
Amazing edit! Doesn't feel like you have removed nearly an hour of video.
Thank you! Yeah and it's still a slower edit as usual.
So, there are longer videos available?
@@tommyherbertson8037 Yes! MM puts out "Director's Cut" versions of the videos for his Patreon subscribers! This video has an hour and 12 minute long Directors cut!
"Quickly made this tool".
Understatement of the year.
:-)
as a amateur mechanic i really LOVE to see you keeping everything so clean and orderly in your shop/garage. I am of that same kind of person, and has even painted my workbech white to see all dirt easier. My "thing" is to get into small projects where i do new things out of anything. As i have a rather poor childhood i learned to make my own tools and come up with solutions to problems. LOTS of trial and errors. Like i can feel pretty easy now when a bolt is starting to break, and backs off.
I love what you do and i wish i had all your tools and machines.
But mostly i love your relaxed style, just doing it slowly and methodically.
THAT is what makes these videos extra good.
Even though my bench is wood, I clean it too very often :-)
Always good to see a new video from my mechanics.
Thanks a lot for being here :-)
It always blows my mind how detailed you are at doing these types of repairs.
So glad to hear that :-)
Давно тебя не было на канале....рад что ты с нами....спасибо за проделанную хорошую работу
Die Schweizer sind so aufmerksam auf Details, dass niemand im Vergleich so was machen konnten. Spitze, wie immer!
Tausend Dank
@@mymechanics Bitte schön!
Beautiful work as always sir.
I absolutely LOVE watching you restore these old abused and forgotten pieces of equipment.
You turn them into functional art pieces.
Keep up the fantastic work.
My only complaint is, I've watched all your videos multiple times and I just. want. more. 😆
It's like Christmas when I see a notification you've uploaded.
Take care, stay healthy.
Hope to see you soon.

Many many thanks :-)
Thanks that was great as always 👍well done. You inspire me.
Thank you so much for your support :-)
@@mymechanics always 🦘
Great to see a real restoration video not a faked one as the vice shows signs of weathering impossible to recreate without waiting many years. Amazing work keep up the great work
I'd like to bring rusty tools back to life. Letting it rust first just to make a video would make no sense to me. Thank you
a wonderful example of when hands can do a lot, but the head works as it should! The selection of machines and tools, as well as the skill of use, is impressive.. Bravo! Master!
Finalmente sei tornato con un nuovo capolavoro!!
A joy to watch as always. And your filing work qualifies you as jeweller!
Thank you very much :-)
I love that satisfying "KLOK" when a corrode piece finally lets go!
Me too :-)
Watching you work made me realize that we can do anything when provided with the right tools. I was enthralled by seeing you bevel all those edges!
Nothing is impossible ;-)
I'm always amazed by the quality of your work. Your attention to detail is unmatched!
Thank you very much!
Oh MM. I cannot add any to what I've already said. This is so wonderfully done and congrats on adding to your skills. Thank you for sharing this.😁
Thank you very much Vickie as always
After all your projects, the old vises are still my favorite. They’re always heavy duty and can always be repaired. Plus, you always turn them into a work of art with the beveled edges, bluing and paint. They are truly “works of art”!!
Love your professionalism and precision, lathe close-ups and sandblasting are the best! Thanks for the great material.
Thanks for watching, much appreciated
