Morning John, Thanks for the micrometer featured in your 'Give Away', Jan14th. A welcome addition to my workshop and will without doubt be used and save converting from Imperial all the time. Thanks again to you for your channel which can usually guarantee an answer to any machining problem I have. It’s well produced, easy to watch and very ‘natural’. Carry on the good work.
One of my most treasured and useful tools on my lathe, is the ways boards i made 10 years ago, out of scrap pine. Why would anyone not use them, so easy to keep your bed perfect.
Enjoy seeing these videos making making old parts for vintage bits of machinery. It would be good if you could get some shots / photos of the things installed at the end of the project and show them a few weeks later as a follow up?
Hello mate.. would you be able to cut 1” 1/2 6 tpi threads, I have a union graduate wood turning lathe with a VFD fitted so it now has reverse. So I need an adapter : 1” 1/2 female left handed to 1” 1/2 right handed…cheers bud.
John, if there is a local high school with a machine shop/engineering class, you could build a tool box with the viewer items and gift it to a student. Is that the wick I see in the oiler at 5:10? Looks like grease! A man wants to leave something useful when he goes. A lot of overhang on the parting tool! Nice work on the internal treading. See you in part 2
Sadly there isn't such lessons as woodwork or metal work in main uk schools, unless you go to (community) college and do a specific course but then then it'll likely be diluted up in something else
@@TheHambletonbiker Sadly most High School Shop classes have been discontinued here in the states also. I guess we were more mature, and there was more demand for the classes back then.

great threads John , You do good Quality work man .. ENJOY EVERY SHARE !!
Looks great John. Later and all the best.
I have a handle for split dies.
What size are those you've got?
If they fit my handle, you can have it, as it's no use to me.

Great job, John. Noticed a great improvement in the audio portion of your videos. Did you ream the pipe between you and Tennessee?
Everything is better in TN!
Nice job, just an " Armchair" thought, could you have used the oiler for the mandrel?.
Thanks sharing.
I thought those aluminium Tecalemit lids weren't too bad but the new ones will be better.
I've got a split die set...complete with die stocks etc..
PRESTO, Sheffield, England
Probably who's made them you have there John...

Great job
If nobody claims the giveaway prizes after a couple of go's, why not ebay it and use proceeds to fund the shop> Sounds fair to me.
The threads look good, hardly a chatter mark to be seen.
