Thank you.
I don't get how people can enjoy your content in a shorter format, I could listen for hours
Your precision and clean work always astonishes me. I'm a service engineer and your clips always inspire me to try harder and make my work better. Thank you!
Great video! Where did you get the straight line and rose engines and how old are they...
Also, this video really gets me close to the edge of making a depth stop for my mill... One day.
Geez.... Talk about dodgy workmanship.... 🤭
Would not be surprised if the swarf in this man's workshop were all of a uniform size and weight. Absolute top shelf stuff. Thanks for inviting us along.
Indeed! Chris' craftsmanship is so perfect I couldn't help notice the momentary lapse at 1:34 where the Dykem didn't cover exactly 100.0% of the surface of the piece LOL :)
I could watch this all day long as I pick up so many little visual tips and techniques for my own mediocre metalworking efforts.
Blued, Hardened and Functional. Yes, Good One. Still chuckling. Oh, and yes, he is a bugger, hey. :))
edit...and when the swarf is dug up in 2000 years, people will remark about what a far sighted machine it is.
I wonder if Chris knocks the sharp edges of the swarf, just to be safe.
This man is from another planet.
Avoid !
"Pits & dents" ?
Indeed. Been an avid fan since AvE's channel recommended it many years ago.
The idea of turning metal by hand as though it were a wood lathe is fascinating. What a great technique.
@@Vandal_Savage Thanks! I'll take a look.
The transfer screws (00:55) for locating holes are used a lot in cabinetmaking, too. 🙂 The woodworking ones aren't threaded, but their function's the same.
Setting concealed locating/strengthening dowels into edge joints is impossible to do accurately without a supply of little pointy things!
Why so, if you have the touch.
For Watchmaker its how we do a lot of very small stuff
Its easier and faster most of the time to do parts by handturning compared to whipping out the Support, get everything straight and alined.
And for tiny diameters its close to impossible to do it with the Support.
And by tiny I mean Pivots of 0.2mm diameter
Go back to videos from years ago on this channel. Hand forming curves is a staple of Chris's technique.
you're truly an artist and a craftsman, the way your videos are shot is so pleasing and you explain everything so clearly it's a joy to watch.
This guy is the epitome of “if a job’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well”.
I've missed you man I've learned a lot of using a lathe and been tinkering with it myself
I really love how you preview upcoming shapes and operations, overlaying holes and the final intended form. This is exactly how I picture things while fabricating, and I think it really helps people follow along, especially those who might not see it naturally.
watching machining of screws is extremely satisfying
Is anyone else baffled by how Chris gets the machine slots of the screws exactly identical and indeed the angle he wants them to be at? 🤔 👏👍🏻
I'm guessing he cuts the threads, then screws them into the part and marks 12 o'clock on the blank head. Then unscrew them and cut the slots according to that mark. It happens too often for it to be coincidental. 🙂
I used to be baffled, but then i just started accepting the world is full of magic after all.
Never machined anything in my life. Realized many years ago that amazing edit, explanations and often a story behind it all make you special. Skill as a viewer doesn't matter with your productions. Thank you!
I work in the music field. Another field like this one where anyone who's any good makes it look easy - a piece of cake - anyone could do that! Chris makes the most precise work look easy, effortless, and as though it was pretty much foolproof. Get yourself a lathe and you could be churning out stuff like this tomorrow. Not only does it fit precisely, it looks beautiful too. I know i could make all that stuff myself. Until i tried that is. Behold, the master!
I've said it before and I'll say it again: you are a wizard and it is wonderful to watch you work.
I'm just glad we're no longer burning people at the stake; he'd be at risk for sure!
The Wonderful Wizard of Work?
When the slots on those two screws lined up parallel... I have no words.
Aw, man ! I WISH I had your skill, patience, expertise, talent... Wow, this brought tears to my eyes. Just, wow. Thank you.
Hes back i cant believe he is back
8:20 Most beautiful shavings I've ever seen. Simply a sumptuous visual confection.
2 clickspring videos within 2 weeks?!? Someone pinch me I might be dreaming.
Hey, Chris !
I'm a Norwegian woodworker / furniture maker and I reckon I'm about half as smart as I need be to understand what you're doing. But that doesn't stop me from gathering some small practical tips, oooh!-that's-a-clever-tool-can-I-make-that-of-wood? & 'good practice points' that I can use in my woodshop. I must have picked up a good handful or two of 'insights' / things-I-would-never-have-thought-of-myself from watching your videos, and TOT, Allen Millyard, Abom79 & other metalworkers (you can plane steel?! linearly ?!! with a humongous tool-pushing monster machine ?!!! wicked, black art, I tell you! Best stay well away and keep cutting wood with steel as Odin intended) Thanks! for sharing your brilliant work is what I'm getting at, I guess. You're a joy and an inspiration. Enough gushing. I've got steel to hone.
Clickspring videos are consistently the only videos i watch on UA-cam in 1x speed - to fully appreciate it as Chris intended from the editing booth. (And I watch a lot of youtube at 1.5-2x haha)
I myself never had the skill in metalworking, either by hand or with machine tools, but I am completely fascinated at the incredible work Clickspring does.
Many of the skills he shows off are sadly fading away with the advent of computerized machining and manufacturing. I sincerely hope that those who have the skill and interest in metalworking keep these older machining methods alive in the future.
Always a fine day when chris uploads. Like genuinely one of my favourite non-gaming channels cause theres a lot to learn from his content like legitimately.
Love the attention to detail in both the work and the video production, adding the reflection of the cad model in the table 👍🏻
Thanks mate :)
You always manage to make hand finishing look so quick and satisfying. Then I go out to the shop and grab a file and start cursing until my fingers are sore
Arguably the finest channel on UA-cam.
As usual, left speechless at the attention to detail. Perfect.
Your videos are always so beautiful to watch !
The care that you put into your work is incredible and your standard of videography is second to none, the details such as close ups of the thick oil with transparency and reflectiveness that changes gradually as the viscosity of the oil causes it to resist gravity just makes my mouth water !
Looks like honey to me !
Right now this video has more likes than views!!! The hallmark of a great UA-camr!!
I love that you take the time to work on getting the aesthetics of a piece right. There’s something about using a tool that’s not only functional, but also beautifully made. Can’t wait to see further vids on the use of the machine, keep them coming!
Yeah... this channel is the trifecta of science, engineering, and art. You're a master of your craft(s) Chris!
This is my go-to answer to the question "What is the best UA-cam channel?" Keep it up, please, or I shall be sad.
Clickspring!!!!
We all know and love you and your videos. Thank you so much for sharing and we cant wait for future engine turning videos!!!
There are maybe three channels in my subscriptions (out of 994) that can get me to stop "multitasking," and maintain my complete focus on the video at hand. This just happens to be one of them.
Absolutely magnificent.
Good ol’ fashioned clickspring vid! Thank you!
Best machining photography I've seen.
I am never sure what I am more impressed by in your videos, your fabricating skill or your sheer artistry.
When you are that skilled that your modifications are seamless with the original. A pleasure to watch such a skilled craftsman.
This guy takes so much pride in his work it's ridiculous.
I mean, to him it's not just a bolt, it's a freakin work of art.
Chris it's always pleased to see your work.
Great to hear a "G'day" again.
Always amazing work. Thank you... :)
Even your screws look beautiful.
Despite your camera work being off the charts... your narration is what gives your channel its charm. So excited to have you back!
I now know how to make an attachment for a tool I will never own... and I couldn't be happier.
Of course the screw heads point in the same direction!
🤣
Exquisite workmanship.
The Best channel I have ever seen. Thank you Chris.
It is so great to have you back making videos!
I like to imagine one day I'll have a fraction of these skills. Meanwhile I marvel in the beauty of the work and editing.
The only person that could make Dykem drying interesting.
Well done Chris. Thank you.
Yet another work of art... Les in UK
You are a genius at your craft. The music, camera work, computer animations, and machining skills are truly inspiring. Keep up the great work.
Glad to see your videos in my recommendations again!
So glad to hear your voice again!
Always a pleasure watching you work Chris. Thanks for sharing.
I want brass knobs like that on everything that can take a knob. And it will age beautifully as well, it will be no time until it looks like the original knob.
A bit of perfection in this sad world. Thanks
1900 views/3 minutes = A hunger for quality videos.
I sincerely appreciate the fact that instead of making a half assed fixture ( not that you ever do). You took the time to make a simple and well executed tool that'll last a life time. Not to mention the camera work is fantastic. Always a pleasure watching your videos. Thankyou
Outstanding, as usual. Thank you. The Rose and Line engines are incredible, would love to see more about them.
Much more on the way :)
Gad, I love your work! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Always time very well spent.
I've worked in metal most of sixty years, and all along the way have been beautiful "engine turnings" I've seen, and occasionally participated in. Thanks for showing a very nice piece of kit of the sort so commonly used a century ago, and today.
Brilliant addition to that magic machine. 👍
I appreciate the Goldeneye sound effects 🫠
Just beautiful Mr Clickspring.
Love that you’re making longer-form videos again. Thank you!
Gosh, finally something relaxing for my day. Very good.
Regular people:"We need to find a vendor to supply this complicated part"
Chris from Clickspring:" Nah, mate. I'll make it myself"
Regular people:"What would a mechanical astrological computer look like?"
Chris from Clickspring:" I'm building one based off a recovered chunk of coral using ancient machining techniques."
Awesome work Chris! This seems to be the time for incredible Australian craftsman ship with you, Marty's Matchbox Makeovers, Chris from Cutting Edge Engineering, and BigstackD! Never been to Australia but you guys make me want to see how amazing it has to be with people like you guys there!
I always take away so much from your videos, and they're so relaxing..!
Have to wonder if we'll be seeing Rose Engine projects in the future. It sure does create beautiful work!
Those screw heads landing in the same orientation. Holy crap that looks so right.
never in life have i touched a piece of craftsmanship as fine as yours.
the sensation must be as therapeutic to hold as these videos are to watch.
thank you for your efforts!
As always, your attention to detail is inspiring and your execution leaves no want for improvement. Great stuff.
As a woodworker I've always been amazed of people taming metal (yes, it's called envy). With the proper tools it's almost magic to see the metal taking shape. Amazing clip, close to art.
My first Clickspring video. I wasn't disappointed. Great video quality and graphics and top-notch metal work with attention to detail bordering on obsessive.
Superb. I machine parts that go to space and I feel humbled.
Loved the N64 Goldeneye sound effects!
11:40 - "The small pits and dents give a bit of character, making it look like it's been around for a while."
Oh, Chris, you know me so well...😁
I have to admit, I have no idea about machining, but I love seeing your attention to detail and the beauty of the final product
Glad you are back, keep'um coming.
Such a passion for machines.
not only is the mechanical work and eye for the detail the best here on youtube. But also the filming is the best I've seen so far!
I love your videos, don’t ever stop making them.
loving the one video a year cadence
It makes my day when you release a video
It's so nice to start seeing new full length (And narrated !) content on your channel again Chris. There's something very soothing, yet uplifting about your tone........ It doesn't hurt that it's backdropped by video of some high class machinist p*rn too. :D
Beautiful attachment!!!
This is true craftsmanship.
One of my favorite channels.
Quality work, nothing but quality work on this channel in every aspect.
It creates the illusion that everything is ok and we are worthy of being part of this planet
Thank you very much.
Thank you for sharing your gift .....
As always Chris, a pure joy to watch!
"... play a key role in coming videos..." 🤸♀🤸♀🤸♀
16 minutes of Clickspring!...I feel like I have overdosed on engineering excellence!
I love all of the videos Chris but look foreward to seeing you use the straight line engine soon.
Chris, Your workmanship is a joy to behold.
Knowing exactly when to leave in some imperfections takes as much skill as you've shown with the rest of the build. Just incredible.
My granddad was a finemechanic and I really taken back to visits to his workshop when I see you videos.
That is a work of art. Leaving the pitted surface was truly inspired, it does work so well with the rest of the machine.
Always a treat
10:01 I love that you even edited the reflection of the piece.
Very keen attention to detail.
I enjoy watching your work.
Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous!!!
Awesome work Chris! Thanks for sharing... good day
You're back!!!
