You absolute legend and exceptional role model!!!! From one hero to another “Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism - it's my least favorite quality, and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen.” ― Conan O'Brien
I really like seeing more frequent This Old Tony videos, the only drawback is my old system of using your upload schedule as an alarm to remind me replace my furnace filter is starting to cost me a lot on furnace filters now.
The 'Im not asking anymore I'm telling' tool. Unless that doesn't work then the torch comes out, the 'If you remain in my way you will cease to exist,.tool.
I did this. I picked up some conelock nuts thinking they were M8 and mansged to get one of them tightened (forever) on a grade 12.9 zinc coated button headed cap screw. Hiw embarrassing when I went back to complain andcwe realised my error. Doh.
Woohoo!!! It's Tony! Present enough for me. BTW, since you first started sharing videos, and I didn't know what an endmill was, I now own my own machining business and love it. You've been an amazing inspiration to so many people.
The word dart sent a painful shiver up my spine. When I was 11 years old I threw a dart with sharpened metal tip up in the air and in that moment my mother walked out of the door of our summer cottage. The dart went right into her left leg about 3 mm from a vericose vein. The whole length of the tip, about 2" went in. She looked down, pulled it out and said, "Be more careful where you throw those." I had already almost passed out, but was stunned to see that her leg didn't even bleed. Now onto your video about darts. Okay, you made some beautiful darts. My dear old mum would have approved. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Howdy Tony! Sadly it's a bit late now, but I just started watching and wanted to chime in that tungsten is actually exceptionally easy to machine! I'm an aerospace machinist and have had to make and modify quite a number of bucking bars for our assembly team. You actually just use the same feeds and speeds that you would use for gray cast iron. It's become one of my favorite materials to work with. Easy to machine, great surface finishes, tiny chips, and it self dampens so no chatter even on frankly stupid cuts. Cheers and merry Christmas!
There are now two things I need to see every year to truelly get into the festive spirit. The Muppets Christmas Carol and TOT's secret Santa video! Now I can finally wish the Mrs a Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas tot. You're witty videos always bring a smile to our faces. Hope you have a great holiday season with the family. Looking forward to more!
Always a great video. Dart-wise... Interchangeable flight stems are made in various configurations, also allowing for interchangeable flights. Kind of like fishing lures.
Fully hardened toolsteel darts would have been nice too. Sort of like an added difficulty level because you can't miss or they'll shatter when falling on the floor. Plus they would be a replacement tap, when you dropped all your real taps.
Speaking as someone who resides in a country where every traditional pub has a dart board, those would be considered 'girly' darts, for her indoors, the ball and chain, trouble and strife
It's NOT Christmas until TOT posts his Secret Santa vid! Let the season begin!!! Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year Tony & family. Take care & stay safe.
Merry Christmas Tony your videos teach me allot and help me teach my manufacturing class as a student due to a new teacher that isn’t educated in manufacturing. Thank you from me an my classmates
Oh yeah! ToT kicking off my favorite holiday tradition! I tried darts for a bit in my youth. Even occasionally hit the targrt a time or two. Still have that target in the basement. Maybe I'll get it out and put holes in some different walls. Granted, my darts aren't as bespoke as this. On to the next video! Thanks for sharing!
The glitch in the matrix had me concerned, but you triumphed through magnificently!! I have a tough time this time of year, so your video was perfect timing! Thank you.
I started the loop here but paused as Tony got his gift in order to watch everything in make-receive order. Now that I've come full circle, I don't think I could have planned it any better.
Morning started out HO HUM. But, to my wandering eyes appears, This Old Tony! Went to heat my coffee and muffin and start my day with a smile while watching the video. Now the search is on for the others.
As I'm watching this, the world championship of darts are in progress. While watching it I was wondering what it would take to make a custom set. Great job.
Wait, I don't get a present? But Tony, This old, You're the present good sir, thank you for occasionally gifting us a bit of yourself, Happy holidays man.
I've never heard of a real life 'secret santa' thing. I only first heard about it through this youtube makers ring. I've been following it for five years.
I left out a plate filled with cookies for Santa…but they were tool steel cookies so jolly old Tony arrived during the night, milled them into threading dies and left a new video in my feed!
I’m so glad UPS didn’t lose the Cliffhanger-in-a-Box™️!!!!
I can't wait!
😂 Collab with Simone on a foldable cliffhanger!
You absolute legend and exceptional role model!!!!

@@fredio54 Wow you got the oldest channel I’ve seen in a while from 2006!! You must’ve seen a lot of the internet. My hats off to you.
YES! The greatest gift I'll get this Christmas: A This Old Tony upload!
It's my gift
So glad he has come back from the dead to show us his hands again!
Not only that, but it'll be a twofer too! We can be confident we'll get the next video relatively soon!
Woohoo!!! It's Tony! Present enough for me. BTW, since you first started sharing videos, and I didn't know what an endmill was, I now own my own machining business and love it. You've been an amazing inspiration to so many people.
Morse code Christmas lights - Genius!
I love This Old Tony's editing style and sense of comedy. It's ALWAYS a treat to see a new video out.
Or when he's in the middle of a complex explanation and then he........
The finding center on the log bit was hilarious and so true, Tony...👍
TOT: "We'll talk about the tail later."
Me: I didn't think this was that kind of channel, but okay. I'm here for it.
TailSTOCK
it was Tailstock
...
the "stock" was just silent

Perhaps she had tights on !
The brass snow flakes are great touch. Thanks Tony!
Dear Santatot, all I want for Xmas is a 1/4" -20 tap and my two front teeth.
Merry Chrifmaff!
Is there a connection between those items? :-)

exactly this
Using the micrometer on the dead tree is critical for accuracy! Well done, Mr. This Old!
Hey Tony, merry Christmas to you and yours. Thanks for bringing us along with you as you do things in the shop!
James first video after the holidays. "TOT sent me useless dart shaped taps."
Smooth Christmas jazz over machining. That alone is a gift. Thanks Tony.
The cliffhanger means we get another TOT video soon :)
There are now two things I need to see every year to truelly get into the festive spirit. The Muppets Christmas Carol and TOT's secret Santa video! Now I can finally wish the Mrs a Merry Christmas!
Love the secret Santa videos I watch every single one every year they just hit
May God bless you and your family Tony. And may 2025 be awesome and Blessed for you and yours in the name of Jesus!!!

Thank you Old Tony for this lovely Christmas video🎉
My best for 2025
I couldn't click fast enough. This is the best Christmas present I could get. A This Old Tony Video
That picture of your son in those goggles cracks me up every time.
Uh-Oh! Try some JB-Weld to seal up the cracks...
Merry Christmas This Old. Long may you continue
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Happy holidays.
I’ve been waiting for this all year! And even better that TOT is the first one that I see!
This video series is how I found Xyla's channel a few years back and I am thankful
I absolutely lost it when you showed the results of center finding the wood. Really cool concept for darts! Great video as always
Merry Christmas to you and yours Tony

Greetings from Norway!
Thanks for sharing 👍 and Merry Christmas to you and your family 😊
A very Merry Christmas to you, TOT.
BTW, did you know that tot is the German word for dead? Just sayin'.
Always a great video.
Dart-wise... Interchangeable flight stems are made in various configurations, also allowing for interchangeable flights.
Kind of like fishing lures.
Cool idea, and well done Tony! Merry Christmas, and have a great 2025!
I was waiting for Secret Santa and here it is!
I was waiting for another year of TOT Christmas video. 365 days later its finally here!
I hope you and your family are doing well Tony 🙏
Love a bit of silica riddled oak! Oak is also acidic due to tanic acid content. Fun facts........darts are going to go funky colours.
Not possible to click on this video TOO fast!
@mephisto5030 It's not possible to click this video TOT fast!
Frank howarth and this old Tony in one week?! It’s like it’s Christmas!

Unpossible)
Missed you bud !! Merry Christmas to you and the family and happy New Year
SECRET SANTA!!!!!! I've been checking all week!
I love your videos.....wish you made more..... more often!!
Happy Holidays to you and yours Tony and thanks for entertaining us all year!!
Fully hardened toolsteel darts would have been nice too. Sort of like an added difficulty level because you can't miss or they'll shatter when falling on the floor. Plus they would be a replacement tap, when you dropped all your real taps.
It's great to see a video from you!
This video was one of my best Santa's present: Thank you ToT

Thank you Tony, merry christmas!
Darts? WTF.. 6 minutes into the video: GENIUS! Happy holidays!
❤️ Merry Christmas 🎄
It's NOT Christmas until TOT posts his Secret Santa vid! Let the season begin!!! Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year Tony & family. Take care & stay safe.
Merry Christmas and happy new year.

A new This Old Tony video was the only thing I wanted for Christmas. Now I feel like... well, a kid on Christmas morning!
Merry Christmas Tony your videos teach me allot and help me teach my manufacturing class as a student due to a new teacher that isn’t educated in manufacturing. Thank you from me an my classmates
Greatest Christmas present ever, This Old Tony in my notifications!! 🥰🥰
Tony, your presence is our present! 🎁🎄 Merry Christmas!
Oh yeah! ToT kicking off my favorite holiday tradition! I tried darts for a bit in my youth. Even occasionally hit the targrt a time or two. Still have that target in the basement. Maybe I'll get it out and put holes in some different walls. Granted, my darts aren't as bespoke as this. On to the next video! Thanks for sharing!
Finally the secret Santa 2024!🎉🎉
The glitch in the matrix had me concerned, but you triumphed through magnificently!!
I have a tough time this time of year, so your video was perfect timing! Thank you.
Ah Tony’s uploaded, must be Christmas. See you next year old man x
Merry Christmas all from the UK
Friggin love this every year
Merry christmas Tony.😊
Merry Christmas TOT to you and yours.
What a great Christmas present, another video from This Old Tony!
Merry Christmas from a sunny South Africa
I always forget about this series until it drops. One of the best parts of Christmas.
I started the loop here but paused as Tony got his gift in order to watch everything in make-receive order. Now that I've come full circle, I don't think I could have planned it any better.
😂😂😂❤🥰🤘
Merry Christmas mate.
Love your work.
Happy holidays tot! As always, don't shoot your eye out..
Merry Christmas Mr. This Old.
Morning started out HO HUM. But, to my wandering eyes appears, This Old Tony! Went to heat my coffee and muffin and start my day with a smile while watching the video. Now the search is on for the others.
If you switch the “D” in darts to an “F” you end up with a “duel” meaning gift. First, the gift, second. the age of the maker….Merry Christmas
As I'm watching this, the world championship of darts are in progress. While watching it I was wondering what it would take to make a custom set. Great job.
Damn it, Tony, those could put somebody's eye out! 🎉
Merry Christmas Tony!
That’s the coolest set of darts I’ve ever seen 😎😎😎😎
Wait, I don't get a present? But Tony, This old, You're the present good sir, thank you for occasionally gifting us a bit of yourself, Happy holidays man.
Merry Christmas, from Brazil
i came here from colin, god i love watching these videos all at once
ToT secret Santa vids are one of the best parts of the holiday season
Merry Christmas 🎄 🎯
Good stuff “ this old Tony”. Thank you.
I literally was looking for this years Christmas video several hours ago!
We, the viewers, do not get a present? LIES! We get one of your videos Tony! BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!
Merry Christmas TOT & family
I’ve been waiting for this for… for a year 😅
This playlist is getting wackier and wackier. I love it!
Maker Secret Santa is the best part of the year.
Snow falling and smooth jazz in the background, all we need is a cognac to make it a Christmas special, or Charlie Brown.
I've never heard of a real life 'secret santa' thing. I only first heard about it through this youtube makers ring. I've been following it for five years.
Never seen a case made out of a Yule log 👍
I left out a plate filled with cookies for Santa…but they were tool steel cookies so jolly old Tony arrived during the night, milled them into threading dies and left a new video in my feed!
Merry Christmas, Mr. Old
