Mr. Pete , thanks a million , what your teaching doesn't lend it self to short videos
I enjoy listening to you talk and explain what you are showing us. Keep the format long.
Thanks
I don't care if most people watch 8-10 minutes, I never think they're too long.
Enjoyed every minute of the video.. Great job as always !
Thanks
I like the longer videos. I put you on in the background while I do other things and listen to your explanations and rambles. Thank you for making them.
Thanks
Perfect length of the videos, well done!
My Saturday morning appointment, breakfast, coffee and Mr Pete. Good morning Sir and thanks for the video.
Thanks
Thank you very much I lost my grandfather years ago you remind me so much of him your knowledge and wisdom are absolutely priceless I hang on every word videos are just perfect in length commentary and education thank you for your time enjoy all of them
Thank you very much
Don’t change anything, your banter and style is most enjoyable 👍👍
Thank you, I’m glad you like my videos
You are the uncle we all wish we had. Thank you for your videos
Thanks lol
I'm a new subscriber. I'm 62 and I love watching someone reactivate a piece of bench top history and use it again. Good call on machining the bottom . Looks like I have a ton of videos to watch. I enjoy all the steps. Greetings from Canada.
Thank you, and welcome to my channel. You have 1200 videos to watch
Your creative work holding was interesting for me. Thanks, again. I do need to confess that I do only watch a small amount of you videos when I have previously watched it 5 or 6 times. You are my UA-cam Shop Teacher.
lol thanks
Mr Pete, I have watched every second of every video you ever produced. I personally don't think your videos are too long. But I consider myself an information and knowledge sponge. I love learning everything I can about nearly any subject matter available.
Thank you for that. I love it when people want to learn
A good video is never long enough and a bad video is never short enough.
Yours are good.
Thanks.
That is funny, but true
I watch the whole thing Mr.Pete. Every minute. Thank you.
Thanks
I always enjoy your videos. Content of project should only determine the length of video. Some people are just to much in a hurry to set and watch anything. Like they say you should stop and smell the roses or in the machining world the cutting oil.
I enjoyed the this whole series, beginning to end. Every word, opinion or suggestion is gold. The laments at the end were icing on the cake, I think we all have those and they are entertaining when it happens to the other guy, tragic when it happens to us.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it
Never get tired of your content. Can't get enough. Keep going Mr. Pete !!
Thank you, I shall forge ahead
Mr. Pete, One can never own too many vises! Your videos are fine as is, keep them coming my friend!!!
Thanks I will
I'm one of your younger listeners and I just finished watching all three parts, all the way through. Your voice is very easy to listen to.
Thanks
Rainy afternoons spent in my shop are the most favourite...
Please don’t change a thing about your videos. Always a treat.
Ok
I am not sure why anyone would only watch 10 minutes of a video. I for one watch from start to finish. Always enjoy them complete with anecdotes and lamentations also the occasional rant. I like the longer style video. Thanks for sharing mrpete. regards from the UK
Thank you
Never too long, never to dry, some of your philosophy even brings nostalgic tears to the eye. Keep em coming Sensai !!!
Thanks
This is a good tutorial on the importance of having flat surfaces on flanges, faces etc of parts. The vice now sits square and ridged. I would also say that a yarn from the past is interesting and entertaining. Thank you.
Thanks
Longer is better so you can explain why you're doing it this way and not that way. The pearls of wisdom are invaluable. Thanks for caring to ask.
Thank you very much
You make the videos the way you want Mr Pete. We will watch them.
Brilliant! Oh my goodness, I'm not much into vises but I enjoyed this video. I think you have an intuitive knack for making videos, I've watched probably 85% of yours and I've never thought they were too long. I am *thankful* you choose to keep making them! UA-cam's shop teacher indeed!
Thank you very much for a Fine complement
I always watch and enjoy the entire video, unless I accidently click on one that I already watched. Thanks for what you do give us!
Thanks
As someone on the younger/ less experienced side, I do not think your videos are too long at all. It's great to hear and see your process, what you spend extra time on, and what you get done quick. It's helpful in more ways than one.
Thanks
Your videos are awesome, if I find the subject interesting, I will watch them over and over again! Thanks!
Thanks
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us Mr. Pete.
👍
Thumbs up to you for milling the bottom of the vice. I'm not the kind of person who tells a more experienced machinist how to work but it bothered me seeing it bolted down and bottom not flat. PS - I do like your set-up on the mill. Yes two thumbs up.
I just look at it like I'm going to shop class today. I spent 5 hours and a pot of coffee in your class today and tuition is free. I'm an old timer, so I can do that. Never too old to learn. I'm never selling my machinist tools or machinery. I don't want that sellers remorse. It's a terrible thing. Leaving it to my boys. Thanks.
Yes, I liked and have subscribed.
Thanks for watching
EXCELLENT Video Mr. Pete-!! I was one of the ones sitting here in Spfld. Illinois aching to see you correct a decades old wrong on this grand old Parker vise. If ever there was a vise worthy of the effort this Parker was certainly it, and youve saved it from possibly being tightened down and broken in the future. I was almost talking to the screen while watching a previous video asking how can one sit there with a machine shop and not make such a badly needed correction on this iconic piece of American shop history, well you did and im sure im not the only one that thanks you for your efforts - not just for correcting this oversight but for sharing the process with us especially those out there who are finding old vises every day and wanting to fix and restore them. Im guessing any vise repair or restoration video you do would be well received by those wanting to fix or restore their own and see your work as well. You should know there are many of us out here that love the old heavy duty vises from our American past and very much appreciate the videos on them, especially ones like this showing proper repair and restoration - keep in mind many many people across the country are pulling these old vises out of salvage and estate or yard sales every day and restoring them, and for some its their first time so videos on how to do it correctly are eagerly awaited and appreciated - especially from the most popular internet shop teacher on You Tube, Vises like this Charles Parker havent been made in the U.S. for a long time and doubt they will be again, the closest thing to one today in a new vise is one of the larger Columbians of which only the larger ones are still made in America-(?) - so saving these remaining Parkers and others of the past is an ongoing process and anyone finding one will hopefully see the worth of it and consider themselves tasked with its restoration and or preservation. Thanks again for your video Mr. Pete, we love watching you share your skills and visiting us in our homes to share all your experience and knowledge. Do not be concerned about boring us sir, its a shame to hear of the short viewing times, it would seem patience is no longer a virtue for many - anyone with half a brain will know the value of sharing decades of experience which is as we know the best teacher.
Thank you very much, great comment
Mr. Pete, I really enjoy your videos. You remind me of a shop teacher I had back in the 60s. At the time we all thought we knew everything, but now I am so grateful for all the things he taught me, Not only about machining but also how to be a responsible man, Thanks Again
Sounds like a good teacher
I dont always watch every video of the 200 or so people I follow but when I watch a video I watch it 100%. I started watching you at about tips 40 and have watched everyone of your video's all the way though.
Thank you very much for watching
not too long, enjoy every minute of Mr Pete
Thanks
I loved the video! Made me feel like I won a contest, and my suggestion was picked! (you said half the viewers, but it felt like me only). Made me understand why a guy needs big old angle plates and jacks and STUFF! Great video. Your lamentations remind me of talking with a friend about all the classic cars, that were our every day drivers. I even gave a couple over the years to a wrecking yard.
Thanks
I enjoy every minute of it and most certainly edutainment. Thank You Mr. Pete for sharing.
Thanks
I never, Ever, EVER seen even one of Your videos that i thought was too long Mr. Peterson.
In fact, i have watched many more than once, & some even more than that, & i often refer back to them to refresh a subject when needed.
'Thank You' does not even cover it !
Don't be tryin to fix things that aint broke !
Thank you very much for that
There is nothing wrong with your videos. They are great.
I like the videos the length they are. I like to watch them in the shop while I'm working or playing depending on who you ask.
Thanks
NOT TOO LONG. No sir' just fine. Love hearing your stories and teachings.
I enjoy the longer videos MrP. They’re always very interesting. Keep up the good work.
Thanks
Thanks
Hi Mr Pete. I have watched every video you have published for the last 12 years since I found you on UA-cam, I never find them too short or too long your introductions and closures are always appropriate to the content I cannot understand some of the comments you receive obviously they only want entertainment and not knowledge enhancement. Kind regards, Ted.
Thank you very much for watching all those videos for so many years
Professor Pete, I watch it all. I'm not here to be entertained, well, not as much as being informed. Skipping your rants leads to missed nuggets of machining wisdom. Keep them long form, you aren't wasting your time on me! Truly, your laments mirror my own.
Seller's remorse.... I avoid that by not selling anything. I'd rather give stuff to someone who will use it, than sell it and be remorseful that I under priced the item. Weird, but everyone is wired individually. I think mine is mostly shorted and/or open.....
I need to stop selling things
That vise came out awesome Mr. Pete! And I'm with you, I wouldn't trade it for the whole lot of Chinese vises at that store! That setup on the BP was pretty smart, well done!
And don't you dare shorten your videos! Don't punish us over the short attention span of others! :)
Thanks
What you did to the CP vice was what should have been done at the factory. Keep it up Mr. Pete !
Yes
Hi Lyle Extremely clever mounting: using the vise to be it's own vise :-) I find your video length to be just right for each topic covered. As do many , many others I appreciate the chance to enjoy them! thank You!! regards vic
Thanks
Agreed, perfect video length, always enjoy learning from you.
Thanks
Thanks for the video. Your project went well. Kind of bad news but a 6" Wilton is near $1500 plus freight.
Keep doing like you'r doing now. Really enjoy them. I learn a lot.
Thanks
I enjoyed the video...especially the figuring out the setup at the mill! Sometimes making an item better than new is rewarding :-)
Thanks
time well-spent mr. Pete make the videos in my opinion as long as you want I enjoy the time watching your videos it's like spending time with a long-lost relative you just don't want at the end thank you
As long as the information is good the time doesn't matter. Looking forward to the 10 part series on the float vise.
Thanks
I have tat that everything USA made is top quality. Seeing this vice un machined completely, changed my mind...
Yes
Now that's kicking it up a notch! I like and use the swivel feature on my vises. With arthritis in both knees, the feature allows me to position the work to be comfortably performed from my shop stool.
👍
Viewer from England here, firstly, just to say, I greatly enjoy and appreciate the time and effort you put into your video's. The longer the better as far as I'm concerned, fortunately I don't suffer from the modern affliction of limited attention span! Moving on, I'm pleased to learn that I'm not alone in my inclination to collect quality vices! Currently I have about 12 or so, all British and mainly Record of Sheffield, but also Woden and a Swinden. The Swinden is interesting for a few reasons, 1/ they are still being made in the UK, which is pretty incredible as the company has been around for over 75 years, and 2/ it is a swivel vice with two different size jaws. They are cast steel, yes steel, not iron and the screw mech is totally sealed from dust, swarf etc. They are very high quality and stupid expensive. Mine is a 4" version but they are made upto 8", that is a monster! I acquired mine after our family business closed down. I would really like to have a Wilton 'Bullet' vice but the price delivered here is too rich for my pocket.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching. I am happy to find that I’m not the only one that likes different kinds of vises
I watch All your videos from start to finish so keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
I enjoy your style of videos at the length you make them. I say keep being yourself. Great improvement on that vise with the machining work. I liked the way you incorporated the jacks and toe clamps to make the setup more rigid. I'm sure that will give me inspiration down the road. Thanks as always for sharing.
Thank you, I am glad you liked it
Thank you, I am glad you liked it
Great job Mr.Pete! I have been watching your videos for a long time and have learned so much from you. I wish I had you as a shop teacher growing up! Although I suppose that I have the next best thing, thank goodness for youtube!
You have the best of both: you are old enough to have a great attention span (able to manage the distractions of perfume and gasoline unlike when we were young) and his distilled wisdom that doesn't include, "Hey Dink, get off that table, Joe, put down the anvil, Frank, stop chewing on the lead solder......"
@@stxrynn too true! I hate to say it but youth really is wasted on the young!
Thank you Lyle. I am glad that fine vise now has a stable rock free base. Anything else might be sacrilege but preventive medicine is always better than the illness getting worse. Plus you seemed to have enjoyed the outcome as well as we did.
Thanks
Thanks , I like this stuff it Reminds me when I was 10 helping my dad in the shop.
Thanks
I think the time and quality of you videos is excellent!
Thanks
I enjoyed every minute of this video and am looking forward to your series on the floating drill press vise.
Thanks
This video exceeded my expectations. I leaned about the work holding.
Thanks
I like your longer videos and I rarely, if ever skipout early. Keep up the good work Mr. Pete.
Thanks
Hi Mr Pete. I don't think there is anything wrong with the leg th of you videos. If you think it's important enough to show, I'm certainly happy to receive. I don't know if it affects the analytics but I sometimes don't watch a video in one sitting. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, experience, laments, stories, and the lot! As always. ...have a happy day.
Ps: even enjoyed the sound of the rain. :)
Thanks
Lyle! I watch the full extent of your videos! Please do not cut it short if you do not have to. My favorite parts of your videos are the conversational bits you throw in that are an aside to the project at hand.
Thanks
4th.
The subject should dictate the length.
Modern man apparently has a short attention span.
Us old timers are made of sterner stuff.
Thanks
I’m only 21 years old and I enjoy the long format of your videos. You can learn more that way. I think I have watched almost all of your videos and have never skipped through them.
Yep, I much prefer an informative video, which means a longer video.
@@mrpete222 mr pete, any chance you have a locke collar , and trust washer for a Columbian 504 vise? thanks Luke . former student of yours.
Enjoyed the videos as always, thanks for making them. Looking forward to the drill press vise construction series.
Thanks
Great job Mr. Pete! Perfect way to begin my Saturday....half an hour seems to fly by in a matter of seconds
Hi Mr Pete for me your videos are never to long . I in joy your stories and rants for that matter keep up the good work . Kind regards Shaun from England 😀😀
You very much
Thank goodness you keep the post interesting or I would fall asleep because they are long, but I enjoy machinery, I wish I had a machine shop with a mill and lathe. I was a machinist for over 30 years at Cat here in Illinois. Retired from Cat and USAR and trying to enjoying life
Thanks
Your videos are never too long.
Thanks
Love the videos! Just so happens I have 2 Starrett 323 1/2 vises I’ve been working on these past few days. I have a severe collection of every sought after vise. Probably close to or over 100. Like you these are the only starrett vises I’ve ever come across in all my years of collecting!
👍👍👍
There were many vice mfg companies pre the 1970's that 6" flanged would be happy here! As usual, great video!
👍👍
Love the video Lyle, please leave your videos as is. I like the longer ones. 👍
Thanks Steve
Mr Pete, don’t change the videos. I watch them all. You got me started in this machining hobby, and taught me most of what I know. Made many of your projects, too! I don’t always watch the long videos in one sitting. I will watch for as long as I have (bathroom) time Lol. then I will watch the remainder later on. I wonder if that sort of thing messes with your stats.
Thank you, that’s funny
Through out time the story teller has been an important part of every society. Even though I will never do most of the things in your videos I absolutely love listening to you explain what you are doing. I especially enjoy when you get side tracked. I would be very disappointed if you shortened your videos! I am working my way through all 1000+ videos.
Thanks
GREAT JOB MR. PETE , LOVED IT !!!
Very enjoyable video and no, not to long the video length is just right,you make me miss my old shop teacher and that was 34 years ago, I still use things he taught me in industrial arts oh and safety you used very ingenious machining techniques btw
Thank you very much
Your videos are never to long!! Keep up the great work. Love watching your videos!!
Thanks
Never too many vise videos!
Nice update and mill job. No more laments.
Very great improvement, for taking stress off base, if mounted on steel table ! love it !
Yes
Yeah! Really looking forward to the float-lock project!
Yes
Please don't change a thing, Lyle!! To echo those below, I enjoyed every minute.
Thanks
Super excited for the float lock video series.
Yes
Hurrah sir ! From boat - hull to flat, it just seems right now. I liked your mill clamping setup, that worked out a treat.
Thanks
When I watch your videos on the smart TV my wife always comments that you have a "soothing" voice similar to my Iowa relatives (we live in the Deep South). BTW, I watch ALL of each video, keep 'em coming.
Thanks very much
Thanks very much
Mr. Pete
Nice job of squaring the base of the Parker Vice. I enjoyed the video from start to finish. You know that young people today cannot concentrate on anything for more than about 7 1/2 minutes. What can I say.
Gary 76-Year-Old Home Shop Machinist.in North West Arkansas
I believe you are correct about their attention span
Love you Pete you really go out of your way to put on a video for us armchair machinist thank you much. And I have to through in some troll comments why why why use a fly cutter chuck it in the lathe use the shaper hand scrap it in chisel out the bench to fit the vise and maybe weld it up first than send it out to be ground and lapped.
Read comment. Yes, that is what the trolls say
Great video and great execution on the milling machine, as it turned out very nice! I read through the comments of part 2 as well and saw all those comments of it needed to be machined flat and I was thinking it's on a wood table the wood will conform to the irregularities of the vice so why bother but I think it was worth it in the end! Thanks for sharing.
I agree
I agree
Too long ? absolutely not. Saturday morning, grab that cup of coffee and get compfy in front of the computer. I usually have a dozen or more emails to weed through until I find mrpete22, and then settle back and enjoy watching your great videos. You have lots of folks hooked on your videos, and I for one enjoy watching them. Never thought much about their being too long, just get wrapped up watching some very informative subjects. I often find myself thinking, yeah I would machine that part off, and all of a sudden there you are machining away that part. Well. enough from this old guy, because my comments are getting a bit too long. Again, thanks for making and sharing your great videos.......Ken , the old grumpy guy from Marina California.
Thank you, I needed that encouragement
Never to long always enjoy you sharing your knowledge
Thanks
Keep the content Tubalcain! I enjoy watching you explain and demonstrate in your videos. I also agree that the red hose gaskets look out of place on the handle, there are black ones available at the box stores if you really want to swap them.
👍
enjoyed, like seeing the fixture setup on the mill, I always enjoy that challenge in my shop! IMO, a flycutter might have been my selection although a tooling change would be needed for the 90 degree face....
I enjoyed this series very much, please keep up the good work.
Thanks
