Thank you Adam for sharing, your skill level is so high yet you are able to show so much detail yet still be humble. I'm sure that I'm among your many viewers who wish to thank you for your hard work. I always take away new things from your videos and enjoy them a lot. Thank YOU!
Adam thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge over the last two years. You and the other UA-cam machinist have been awesome and many thanks to all of you for taking the time to do this for all of us....
Thanks for showing us the out takes Adam. It will help keep us from throwing perfectly good tools through perfectly good windows when things don't go quite according to plan.
Hello Adam, Great 100! Really enjoyed your family history of progression through the years of machining. Looking forward to you 200 edition. I am sure you are proud of your dad and grandad and rightfully so. I am also sure they are looking down and are filled with pride for you. You are doing them proud. Have a good day. Doug
As James Greene says outstanding series on the shop and some of your family background history. An excellent 100th SNS, thanks for all that you do. Loved the out-takes especially the collet chuck one. LOL
Loved in Adam , Great share man ! You come from a list of great folks that know what needs done and how to do the job .. Your no exception man , Love every video you share ! Thumbs up ..
Hey Adam, Nice history, something you can't buy or learn. Great to have one like this that you can be proud of. I'm sure your Dad and Grandfather are looking down on you with thumbs up. Joe
Here's to the next 100! I Really enjoyed the Jaws segment. How cool was that. All those mechanical's with no computers. What a cool shop. I'm green with envy. Bloopers were pretty good too.
Thanks Adam. I hope you understand that your success on UA-cam is because we like you. There are plenty of other machinists out there, some of them are really good. We watch your vids because it is you making them. You have just the right combination of great skill and warm personality. Congrats on 100 SnS!
"boring action" I lol'd so hard! :-D Thank you so much Adam. You always are so humble and tell everyone all the time how much you appreciate people and what they do. Well, we thank you and appreciate what YOU do as well. Whatever all this is and this ride we call life, we're all in it together and we all do things to make each other and ourselves happy. So, thanks man!
Adam great stuff that is awesome about the jaws II work your Dad did. Great finish for the 100th SNS. Thank you again for the videos. Have a good holiday.
Part of why we keep watching, you have stayed the same, you still reply to a ton of people on each video, youve not let the channel success turn you into superstar, you are happy with what you have and not killing it just to keep yourself famous. Thanks for the vids, I will keep watching for more.
+jusb1066 I enjoy reading all of the comments and replying to as many as i can. This week has been tough, as work has been demanding, and I had over 500 new comments on SNS 100. Working through them now though.
Congratulations on making it to 100 episodes of SNS. I have enjoyed watching every one of them. Thanks for sharing the stories of your family, very humbling.
Adam, thanks for this episode of SNS it was a little bitter sweet. I'm 64 and just trying to follow up on my desire to learn metal work that was germinated in 1970 when I worked for J&L Steel. Shortly after I got my gratings from Uncle Sam and after 7 years in the US NAVY, and a 30+ year career as a software engineer I just bought a SB 10K. You have been a great source of learning for me and I hope you are able to continue making videos.
Excellent job. Thanks for all the effort and time it takes to put these together. You're really easy to listen to and i pick up a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work.
Hi Adam, I enjoyed the stories and the tour around your shop. You sure make use of every bit of space and looks like the layout was well thought out. Congrats again on your 100th episode. Best Regards, Reid
Adam, Thank you so much for the shop tour. It's nice that you shared your shops history about your dad and granddad. Oh yes I loved the collet chuck sequence. Merry Christmas, Jeff
Adam, Great 100th SNS! You mentioned the Monarch revival video so I went back and found it... glad you mention it because the video gave a lot more history regarding both the Monarch and you family. Thanks for ALL your great videos. Tom
Enjoyed the shop tour. You sure have done well in your home shop. I still like watching your videos. The picture of you, your granddad and father is one to treasure!
+oxtoolco Hey Tom, perhaps one day we will meet! You and Adam have been great mentors/teachers. All the tools we make for our flint knapping business is made possible because people like you, Kieth F. Adam, Keith Rucker and many more. I have really advanced our tool inventory and selection at our business. Thanks Tom! Mark (see my comment to Adam just above your post)
+flintknappingtools Hey Flint, I used to do a little knapping myself. I'll have to drag my kit out and show some of the tools I made for knapping. Nothing too radical just my take on some stuff. Thanks for the comment. Cheers, Tom
Adam, great, great 2 video series! Really nice to hear about your dad and grandfather and there influence on you and your carrier! I know that they would be very proud of you and what you have become, especially of your influence on teaching others thru your videos, kind of the way they taught you, real life experiences! As you so aptly stated, sometimes we learn more from our mistakes, but sometimes we learn more from just watching someone do something, rather then having them try to just explain it to you, and I think that's what a lot of people get out of your videos! Great job, Adam!
Nice tour Adam, thanks! Shop organization can be difficult especially when space, as well as time, is rather limited. Plus it often seems like we are always thinking of ways to make things easier and increase productivity regardless of our shops organizational state. Anyway, keep up the good work.
Awesome job on hitting 100 man!! Great video series. My grandfather worked in a bevy years here in California somewhere during the war and ran his own shop on the side for years. He taught my dad who worked in a factory machine shop and he taught me along with all you great UA-cam machinist. Glad you decided to get on UA-cam you have helped us amateurs out quite a bit.
I'm not a machinist by any stretch of the imagination. I'm relatively mechanically inclined (i.e. I replaced the front left hub on my '03 K1500 by myself), but I find all your videos so inspiring and interesting. Keep doing what you're doing, Adam. Your videos rock. Here's to another 100!
I'm really glad that I found your channel back when your dad was living. You were fixing something for him, I don't remember what. He looked so pleased and proud of you! That right there convinced me to keep coming back and I sure am glad that I did!
Really enjoyed your 100th episode. Hope you continue on with the videos! Thank you for all the time and effort you put into entertaining and training all of us subscribers. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Just now got around to parts 1 and 2 of sns 100. I could tell there is a lot of pride in being able to work with grandfather and father. My grandfather was in construction as well as my father. I worked for my dad but never really got to work with him. He was a bricklayer and I followed after him as what some would call a "meticulous arranger of artistic burnt clay products"...a bricklayer, too! My son was in training under me as a bricklayer but after back problems that my dad and brother and I have, he decided to switch trades to the culinary arts, especially baking. He does well at that and it is somewhat easier on the back. You mentioned your grandfather's faith and I believe this is most important as all other things in life are temporary but our faith in God is eternal. It doesn't keep us from being machinists, bricklayers or bakers but simply gives us more incentives to do our best. Keep up the good work and videos, thanks, Greg.
Thanks for all the great videos, but I think this was BEST really enjoyed hearing about how you got started in the trade and the history of the shop.Carry _ On ole buddy
Adam, Your shop has a very warm and "homey" feeling. I really like it. I have lots of machines in my shop, but I still struggle with small tool storage. I think I need more shelves. YOU are the reason I bought my G&L 25T HBM, because of your Kerns that you had. HBMs are soo cool. I just wanted to be a bit more like Adam. LOL. I need to make more videos of my shop and projects I am doing. You inspire me, and I will post more videos soon. Thanks as always. ---Doozer
I just can't stop watching your videos, there are awesome!!! this episode is one of my favorites. It's showing how much hard work you putting into this for us to enjoying watching great videos. Fantastic production and very good quality videos.
I think it is excellent to always remember our ancestors and their history, congratulations for that I am from Mexicali, neighbor of Calexico California.
Hello Adam! Congratulations on completing your 100th Saturday Night Special! I don't know if you are aware of this, but your videos are very easy to watch. Your honesty and forthrightness, without no trace of guile, is what makes them so comfortable. Of course, their content and the fact that you're one heck of a machinist helps. HA! I wish you a very Merry Christmas and booming 2016! Bob Giovannucci The Flag Guy
Adam, You really did a super great job on SNS 100! Everything you showed or talked about was interesting. I really enjoyed it! Now you can start planning for SNS 200! ... Have a very Merry Christmas and a healthy and prosperous New Year! Thanks again!!!!!! Have a good one! Dave
Hey Adam, I wanna to say thank you for all these years. I've been following your channel since almost the beginning, and I've learned a lot, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed each episode. I hope you keep doing videos, and you can count with my support from the distance, even I'm so far (Argentina), I consider you my friend. Happy hollidays!!
Thank you for your shop tour and your stories. Congratulations on showing the 100th Saturday Night Special episode!
Thank you Adam for sharing, your skill level is so high yet you are able to show so much detail yet still be humble. I'm sure that I'm among your many viewers who wish to thank you for your hard work. I always take away new things from your videos and enjoy them a lot. Thank YOU!

Adam, thanks for this episode of SNS it was a little bitter sweet. I'm 64 and just trying to follow up on my desire to learn metal work that was germinated in 1970 when I worked for J&L Steel. Shortly after I got my gratings from Uncle Sam and after 7 years in the US NAVY, and a 30+ year career as a software engineer I just bought a SB 10K. You have been a great source of learning for me and I hope you are able to continue making videos.
