“Wake up Babe, This Old Tony uploaded”
Lol if only she got excited over the same things
Sorry, it’s been so long since Tony last uploaded, Babe died of old age.

THANKS FOR THE SCREWDRIVERS TONY. I can't promise I won't mess up any more screw heads but I'll try 😂
They are amazing screw drivers. I have learnt a lot watching this. I was not even aware the differences of screwdriver types. Mind blown. I will cherish them. Thankyou again
You can buy sets of bits ground that way as well, mainly sold as "gunsmithing screwdrivers" from what I've seen.
Wow, its look mum no komputer
Now that you have the proper screwdrivers, nobody will be able to complain you don't know what you're doing! This is an awesome development
@@Zebra_M yeah he might be able to take a pipe organ apart properly now
So fun bit of trivia, the reason why hollow ground screwdrivers are sometimes done in this flat plate style is because it makes dressing and reshaping the tips much simpler in the end-user's shop. It provides a pair of dead flat faces, so in similar fashion to how you fabricated these, the end user could clamp them down and reshape the tip without losing parallelism. This was especially critical in the days before mass manufacture of fasteners, as each one was essentially custom sized, so if you were a gunsmith tasked with fixing up whatever finely finished hand crafted double rifle wandered into your shop by way of London or Belgium or what have you, you'd often find yourself needing to grind custom sized screwdrivers to not risk marring the finish. Nowadays it's mainly retained out of tradition, but it's still nice to be able to custom fit tools to the job.
The good thing now is being able to get individual bits. That way you can hollow grind them as well as custom fit them to a screw without it being such an investment like a whole screwdriver.
Having a hollow grind that fits the slot just right as well as being the full length of the slot really makes a big difference.
Cool...
Nice. I love learning the backend stories on the "why is this done this way".
Once again, the subtly tapered puns, the finely machined humor, and the editing on spec, makes my Christmas whole
i wouldn't say the editing is in spec, but it's holding the tolerances.
Yaaayy Tony! I'm so glad you like your gift! Thank you so much for the generous channel plug. Happy holidays.
So, does this mean we the youtube viewer's will see a "Spin-Off," Becky versus the old-man TOT. (Sorry Tony, just had to throw you under the bus.) 😜😜
Beep boop beep boop beep beep
Very cool gifts! Excellent work!
"Merry Christmas Becky" *whispers* 'Totally a cyborg!'
11:01 Tony, you have to be strong now:
band saw blades are meant to be changed while the saw is *_not_** running.*
Those plasters! 🤣
Look, I may only have 0.4 hands left, but I still think turning the saw off is an optional step
@@ganamena2832 wtf was that
@@Vengetuen_Wraith Unrelated spam for his own moronic channel that had nothing to do with anything.
@@Vengetuen_Wraith spam bot, that's what.
I think it was TOT that started me watching UA-cam. He's still the gold standard of brilliance.
Tony your comic abilities and way with words is fantastic. The unspoken comedy of putting on bandaids when talking about the dangers of switching a blade but not talking about the injuries is incredible and why I will watch every single upload posted to this channel.
The reason they're called Bandaids is because they were originally developed as protection when changing bandsaw blades to prevent catching/transmitting BANDsaw AIDS.
@@shawbros whoops, shit happens all fixed
Man we are dying to see new content from you. Really, no channel can take your place for me, no one produces the type of content that you do.
There is another.

Inheritance Machining
@@Golgi-Gyges inheritance machining is a good channel but This Old Tony it is not. A lot of the formula and ideas are lifted directly from ToT but it lacks the soul and humor of Tony. A good channel on its own, but kinda “borrows” too much to really be its own unique thing
The band-aids popping up on your hands after talking about changing the bandsaw blade had me laughing hard. Really wasn't expecting that
I've been in bed sick for two days now and you've been a wonderful distraction from how awful I feel. Thanks Tony. You're a real pal.
There are channels that I see posted a new content and I react “cool, I’ll have to watch that later”. ToT posts and I immediately rearrange my schedule to watch it as soon as I can. It’s like a great movie you were excited to be released in the theater. The world needs more Tony
I did just that was headed to lowes for some supplies to build my utility trailer conversion and saw ToT just released a new video and I sat down in my garage to watch it 🙃 glad I did.
ToT is one of the greatest on UA-cam. Wish i was half as good.
Me too - EVERY TIME
I was like NFWho and hope it's just pee in the diaper.
I rescheduled my funeral..... it's o.k., i was going to be late anyway and I was surely going to forget my head...
I'll show my self the door please and thank you.
To be fair, the guy on the operating table wasn't getting any deader.
Oh how I've missed you Old Tony! Thank you in advance for your wonderful content
"Oh how I've missed you Old Tony! Thank you in advance for your wonderful content"

Your presents are always some of the best, Tony. It's good to see you up and about coming out of your hide hole for secret Santa.
My dad is a gunny. A lot of those tools are just really handsome pieces of kit.
Tony I cannot emphasize how much I love your videos.
Tony a good tip on cutting sheet metal on a bandsaw quietly is to put a thin piece of wood under the sheet metal and cut through both at the same time the wood will absorb the vibrations and greatly reduce the noise especially the high pitch ones. Also reduces burrs on the underside of the cut
It's a good tip, but I don't think it does anything except for the noise (doesn't improve blade life if you are cutting properly). And you know it's all gonna get hand finished, so burrs'll be gone no matter what. (I usually just abuse a burnisher to rub and cut them off)
Tony, re the warp-bend. You can use the temper and shim method.
Clamp to an angle iron strong back, shim at the bend, over clamp past straight, temper oven cycle.
It will relax the warp out.
You can keep increasing the shim in several temper cycles and creep up on the right amount.
Gunsmithing or Cabinet makers screw drivers or turn screws are awesome they are designed to be redressed for a better and cleaner fit, screws were originally very expensive, the threads were hand filed into hand forged nails and people wanted to show off that they could afford them, you can also use an adjustable wrench or a pair of pliers to on the flats too
The most impressive thing about Sam is that he records, edits and uploads videos to UA-cam with nothing but a rotary encoder and a tesla coil
That was before he bought a brand new fax machine!
@@taunokekkonen5733 that was when he went to 4k footage
Oh.. How nice to receive a Christmas present from Tony like this on a Sunday evening. A new video to watch during the evening. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
Always a treat to see a new TOT video.
That being said, for those who whine about a decline in his uploads; the man has a full time job, a family with children now of an age where even more time and resources are more in demand. I respect that family first attitude and will remain grateful for his efforts and content, past, present and whatever he can afford us in the future. Thanks, Tony!! All the best to you and yours.
@transmitterguy478 ... read this...
The scale milling sequence had me laughing my head off. Always such great content and humor.
We're not worthy. THIS OLD TONY Christmas special. 30 minutes absolute awesomeness. Thank You!
There are some days where you feel like something is lacking, but then when you get a This Old Tony video, that feeling goes away.
We hope you enjoy your gift from Becky Stern. If you ever have any wire to bend, let us know. Happy Holidays!
Out of ALL the Makers Circles... Your Understanded Humor is a direct Flip of Colin's IN YOUR FACE Humor.... But I have to say... You had me in Stitches and truly enjoying your video!!! Thanks! -First time Watcher!
I didn't know I cared about hollow ground screwdrivers until today. Thanks, This Old Tony.
It truly is a Christmas miracle when This old Tony puts out a video
Your sense of humor is so on point. Sharp wit and learning from the school of hard knocks has done right by you. In the hallowed halls of gift makers you have a strong grip on your craft and handle the pressure of the deadline really well. Thanks Tony!
Missed you Tony! I know there have been changes/challenges for you, but I 100% appreciate that you're still out there and creating content. I hope you're doing well, and know that we're willing to support you in any way we can.
I nearly missed the smoke coming off the left uniselector 1:26. Had to rewind just to make sure. You are just the very, very best. For what ever the reason I can wait, the wait is always worth it. All the very best wishes to you and yours for 2023!
I just love it when peer pressure or your mortgage payment forces you to make a video! Merry Christmas, Tony!
Merry Christmas to ToT, Mrs ToT, the tiny ToTs, and the extended ToT family.
never knew why some flat blade screw drivers worked better then others until this video but have come across many a destroyed flat head jet screws in old carburetors now i know why and what screw driver to get as gifts for fellow gear heads
Thanks Tony! You have been the talking point of our welding class. We cant seem to tig braze like you but, I did make a trash can using Tig and then oxy brazing rods. If anyone is curious. It will kinda explode as you weld.
They came out really nice! And watching LMNC basically moan when using them on the screws they where made for was priceless!
I _really_ enjoy these Secret Santa videos!
Thanx for all the great content! And happy holydays TOT!
Greetings from Norway!
"... wood, plastic, people..." 😂. That was my favourite little quip, but as always as ever, I am thoroughly entertained, wholly impressed, and have also gained some knowingledge I didn't have before 👉👉👉. Thanks Mr. Tony 🙏🙏🙏. Merry Christmas to you and the clan, and don't leave it so long next time, okay? We miss you in this time period 😉. 😎
There are good reasons for making a screwdriver blade from flat, or at least non-round, stock. The shaft can’t twist out of the handle. If needed, you can put a wrench or pliers on a flat or square or hexagonal shaft to gain extra leverage. Best of all, with flat stock, you can make a full tang with the same profile as the handle. This makes the screwdriver unlikely to beak, especially for the handle to break, and makes it almost impossible for the blade to come out of the handle.
Okay. I may have laughed a little when the camera showed the new bandsaw blade installed, but bandages suddenly appear all over your hand.
Been there..
Glad to see a new video Tony.
Yasss... this is Christmas gift that we need though not the Christmas gift that we may deserve!!! 😅😬😛
Thank you, Tony! You're missed!
This is the christmas gift I both need and desire.
@@meatcanyonofficalI BOT SPAM DONT CLICK
Love the Tap Wrench Appreciation Day celebrations!
This old tony; thanks for all the videos. I never wanted a metal shop until I started watching you. You are quite literally the only reason why I can make jewelry and pocket knives today. I would have never had the desire if not for your creations. So thanks for everything.
NO question Spelling can be a challenge, so can creating Music or Tune, with Rhythm.
But *Wait* .. there's more! No Surprise, with a *Song & Dance,* a fine controlled Accent, Metered styled to Tempered Tempo ... *You created an Instrument Driver.* - that can't be Beat. *BRAVO!*
I was just noticing it's been a while since an Old Tony video. Glad to see you are still doing this.
Thank you, Tony.
Your videos are always a treat, and I actually learn stuff. Not having a shop, I may never use any of that knowledge (except trigo...e.....y errr ummm shop math), but you never know.
Happy holidays.
22:42 World's greatest manual machinist 2022: This Old Tony
That kind of screwdriver from flat bars is how we learn to do it at the Liege's gunsmithing school. It allow us to easily cut a screwdriver for the exact length of the screw.
When working on luxury handmade shotguns you need to have a screwdriver the exact same width, depth and length as the screw slot to not damage it, and we fancy extremely thin slots (we use metal sawblade that we ground flat and thin to make them) that let the engraver a lot of space.
Each screw is custom made the slot cut parallel or perpendicular to the gun. After adjusting the action and mating of the bore, we mark where the slot will be, cut the head to length, slot them using the marks and file the head flush with the body with a now very thin and shallow slot that needs a custom screwdriver to not ruin. Each gunsmith use their own slotting tool and matching screwdrivers so we don't need to cut a screwdriver every time. Although if we are repairing or servicing a gun we might need to make screwdrivers for it.
The technique to use them is to put your work on the bench on a cloth so it doesn't scratch and mar the finish and also doesn't slip. Then you place the screwdriver in the slot and place the handle right under your shoulder and collarbone while holding the handle with a full grip.
The pressure on the screwdriver should come from the shoulder and the twist from your hand. To twist the screwdriver you should move your whole body to keep your grip strong.
That way you can apply maximum and uniform pressure and twist with a big lever (as you can lock your wrist and use your body). That's how you tame those ridiculously thin and shallow slots which doesn't use any anti-seize (only coating exists to us, Ballistol for the metal and linseed oil for the wood, period).
Luxury/handmade side-by-side shotguns are made using the 1900s tech.
I’m going to gift wrap my phone and put it under the tree so on Xmas morning I can watch This Old Tony whilst everyone else opens their crappy presents, Cheers Tony your the best 👍
I absolutely love the way tony makes his videos. The way he pulled out the steel out of his sleeve when he said he had an ace up his sleeve was brilliant and made me actually laugh not just blow air out my nose lol.
BAOMN!
I think Becky and her wheel o we're super fantastic and fitting
Maybe the flat shape of the screwdivers you found on the internet provides more torque control because of reduced twisting of the shaft, and also prevents deformation of it. I use screwdrivers of smaller sizes a lot in my job, and I might or might not exaggerate with the tight fit. Worked out most of the time though. So I have experienced that a lot of force on a thin shaft is usually not that great, it bends and twist loosing a lot of force due to its flexibility.
A downside to this may be that you won't be able to stick it into small holes when the screw sits inside it, the diameter is important there.
What an inspired gift for Sam! Love the comedic timing in your videos always!
Finaly! I was wishing for secret santa video from TOT. And now it came true 😁
You really insipre me with your aproach to custom bults. Why go to the store and buy something, if you could just build it on your own, and ofcourse learn something in the proces.
Happy holydays TOT! 🥳
Wow, three of my favourite Choobers collide, Brilliant!
Classic Tony. Milling a fender washer
So good to see you back That old Tony! Here’s to a happy holiday for you and yours!, and a 2023 filled ToT videos for us!??! Side note, had to come back and edit this. Friggin brilliant detective work. The fact that you put thought into a gift that is genuinely needed by the individual, and fills a unique need in their life just highlights why you’re so special, and why we all love you so much.
This, in combination with the other makers is one of the most wholesome series on UA-cam ever year, I love it! Looking forward to watching the other videos.
ill give ya another to check out on the artsy side check out @TenHundreds art collab projects
I wish you had consulted me first.
But thank goodness I caught you in time.
Most electrical equipment has recessed or highly recessed screws.
While uncommon, wide shank short screwdrivers are of rare use in such situations. Guns are not usually more than two inches in the third dimension.
Now, I understand it takes time to make these, and at least a week to ship, so today being December nineteenth, you'll have plenty of time to change your design.
(Don't forget , your time machine)
Deducing while taking a deuce. Love it!
Look who's back! 😁🤩 your videos are always a gift for me. Merry Christmas Tony!
You too!
Oh ToT I have missed you bro, by far my most favourite channel, it’s not just the skill of making things for me, it’s the brilliant humour that is slipped in as well, “Sitting on the John, holding my uni-selector of course, what do I spy with my one good eye” 😂😂😂 “I couldn’t sleep with myself” and the bandaid covered fingers are all gold in my opinion.
I really do hope you get back to a point of doing more videos, Merry Christmas to you and all your family.
Cheers from Australia
22:50 LOL!! Yeah right. I love Tonys humor so much
ALMOST literally rolled on the floor laughing at the bandaids! Laughed a long time, and then laughed some more.
Endless Love to you, old Tony! Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!
This is again the highlight of the new best part of Christmas, thanks ToT, now to watch the rest of ‘em
Plasters on your hands after changing the bandsaw blade cracked me up 🤣 great video thanks for sharing 👍
When hardening steel in a stainless foil wrap.
1) Wrap the pieces in a sheet of paper towel.
2) Add a small amount if charcoal.
The idea is to provide a source of combustible material to deplete the O2 in the foil bag.
When packaging flat items such as blade, various fingers for machinery etc making up the bag isn't that much of an issue. Items with more in the Z direction or complex shapes it gets harder. That's when you really have to worry about adding a sacrificial combustible to convert all the O2. I all my machining experience we used very little W-1. Mostly CRS, 0-1, 0-6*, L-6**, P-6, A-2, A-6 and lots of 4140. The CRS we had large carburizing furnaces for production. Used mostly for rear end gears. The 4140 we used mostly the prehard stuff.
*Called GraphMo commercially. Machines beautifully and hardens with little distortion.
**A die steel sold under the trade name Hy10M
I was already going through the third cycle watching old ToT videos and finally, there is a new one. Absolutely worth waiting for!
This video is probably the best Christmas present I'm going to get. Thank you very much. I've missed your content a lot
I am shocked, confused, and absolutely delighted that you and LOOK MUM NO 'KOMPUTER' have crossed paths like this.
I haven't even watched the video yet but THANK YOU. I always look forward to new TOT videos and lately have been rewatching many many old ones to get my fix.
Christmas only comes once a year, so you’ve got to step up on the video production ToT. I love your work!! Merry Christmas!🎄🎁
Tony, you we always be my favorite UA-camr of all time. Merry Christmas to you and your family, friends and pets.
You now have more subscribers than the population of the South Island of New Zealand. Glad to see you back. Merry Christmas.
The focus on the extreme close ups is exquisite Tony Boy....😏😏🇬🇧
Merry Christmas Tony! Hope you and your family are doing well :)
All ways looking forward seeing you again. But need more content in the new year. Have a merry Christmas and a happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Missed you TOT. Hope to see more of you in 2023. Regards and Happy Holidays. Tony
As I get older, and apparently as Tony does the same, the diminishing joy of Christmas is offset by an obligatory ToT video. 😁
I'm sure I shouldn't ask but, since this is the season for giving, perhaps you could put out more content? As I recall I used to watch your videos every Saturday morning. It just seemed like the perfect end and beginning of the week. Merry Christmas to you Old Tony.
(British accent) Please sir, we want some more
I nearly spit my coffee seeing all the bandages after changing the bandsaw blade! Lol
I absolutely lost it at the 11 minute mark. Oh boy, I needed that laugh. Thank you.
As I get older I'm running out of time so I find myself rarely watching youtube videos much longer than 15 minutes. However this one seemed sooo short!
Thanks ToT, best compliments of the season to you and yours.
I'd like to order yogurt gelato with jam, thank you
You made Sam a paint can opener and a pry bar! How nice!
I would avoid the excessive hammering on the heat treat wrap. You need to have the package air tight, but often beating them shut like leads to hole in the seam or the corners. Generally the place I work we just double fold the edges, and lightly tap them for best results.
Also, to help with the warping many steels will have a normalizing temp, then a heat treatment temp. Ideally you take the part to the normalizing temp and let it, well normalize, or fully thru heat to that temp. After that you ramp it up to the heat treatment temp and let it cook. This decreases the temperature differential and thus expansion differential between the out side and the inside of the part and decreases stress it creates so less warping. Unfortunately, this dose tend to about double the amount of time your parts take in the oven which is why it often gets ignored.
Tony. Your videos are the ones of those where I can actually watch the whole video even if it 30min or even more and don't have the feeling like wasting time
Do you know, what I wish for this Christmas? More TOT uploads.
Not just you, all of us too!
By my count that's 11 Kittens...
Nice to see you back!
Happy Holidays TOT
Looking at what other machinists and engineers have come up with before you isn't cheating, it's (a) the smart thing to do and (b) a major source of _even better_ ideas.
If you call that cheating, then cheat away. :)
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 also, those drivers are just as awesome as Zyla knife! ❤️👍🏼
Literally stopped another video mid-stream when I saw this one come up, best stuff on UA-cam.
I was in the middle of a video, saw this and ran around the house in excitement, jumped on the bed and turned this on immediately giggling like a school girl.
All the plasters on his fingers when describing the bandsaw blades made me wince!
sweet pair of screwdrivers! they are made from flat stock spring steel because the v-shaped leaf springs on the hammers are made from the same stock, its at hand.
The humour and edit never fails...
That's definitely very much, so a success. Depending on what rating you're trying to compare your armor to armor isn't necessarily designed to fully deflect the bullet (and not get destroyed) it's designed to take the hit and stop it from penetrating your body. Oftentimes, again depending on the rating of your armor and what Caliber hits it, The armor is designed to "fail" in order to reduce traumatic shock and deep impact. If the armor stays intact, that means all of that force is transferred from the bullet to the plate straight into your body, which leads to more bodily damage like broken ribs. But if the plate ends up breaking that means it absorbed maximum impact with out passing the built through.
ToT is definately master class, from craftsmanship to video production to that dry British humor.....
Waiting for the next ToT Production is difficult, however there is positive side I see in it. If we actually got more ToT content, it would follow the standard format of CC quiting their job to do YT/SM full-time, with new Facebook, Instagam, Twitter and TikTok channels, faster slip-shod content to meet weekly quotas, huckstering your other media outlets, and so on and so on.
Keep your real job Tony, and keep YT and the pocket change it brings you in cool toys and keep it fun, not work.
Your sense of humour is wicked. I love it.
The yearly makers youtube christmas videos. One of my favorite ongoing videos on UA-cam today.
