Adam, Thanks for sharing. If there's one thing I've learned its that buying machines is only the first step. It's the tooling that really adds up. I'm constantly amazed how much tooling some of you guys have. huge investment.
This is what I like best about RUclips. AvE introduced me to Adam's channel, and in turn Kilroy. It's cool to learn from people who know what they're talking about.
That mill of James is huge. Thanks for the tour. I have seen James shop from his video's, had no idea where he was located. Neat old building with the round windows in brick.
great shop tour! i wasn't the only one curious about what Mr. Kilroy had in his shop. what a great space, a lot of really cool tools in there. thanks Abom and Gill for the camera work.
James and Adam, thanks so much for one fantastic tour....gives me something to shoot for.....sure wish I lived near by so you could adopt a 62 year old youngster.......thanks again, Paul down in Central Florida......
Adam, You, James and Gill gave us another great shop tour. I love those high open joists ceilings and the older architecture. I would enjoy living in that kind of building, get out of bed, walk to the lathe and go to work! Having a place like that would be one of my ultimate joys. After I subscribe, I'll start watching and enjoying James' machine work on his channel and hopefully learn more about his many machines and talents. I'm sure I'll not be disappointed. Thanks....13
It's a cool old historic building with lots of history to it. James would be the man to talk about that. He has plans to rebuild it enclosing the outside covered area and make that the machine shop and I believe finish the second floor to accommodate living quarters. He's got a lot of videos and some with some shaper work too. Check him out.
AT A CERTAIN FAB SHOP I WORKED AT, IN NORTHERN INDIANA, AS A REPAIRMAN - SWING MAN, THEY HAD A HUGE VERTICAL MILL! IN THE NORTHEAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING ( POSSIBLY A 1900, TO 40S ) 36 INCH VERTICAL ROTATING BED. THEY SOLD IT 15-20 YEARS AGO. I NEVER GOT TO SEE IN RUN. THEY SAID THEY HAD'NT USED IT IN YEARS. MAN, IT WOULD HAVE MADE A VERY GOOD UPGRADE FOR CNC! Thanks, love this stuff.
Nice shop. Having a big mill myself I certainly appreciate the value of that big S15 of James. Watching these shop videos makes me really want to redo my barn and convert it into a shop so I can have some more room! I really want a nice HBM. It would make several jobs I do a bunch easier and open me up to more jobs that I currently have to turn away. Thanks for the tour!
Great tour! Those are some big big machines. I have the feeling this big mill would use up about 1/4 of my whole workshop. And 600 dollars seem dirt cheap. Over here in Germany used machines are so expensive, even in really really bad condition. Great as always. Keep up the good work. Phil
What a great couple of videos. Thanks Adam. I really like that old American iron and can't believe how cheap it goes for over there. I wish there was more of it around here. Thank you for introducing me to James - I had watched a few of his videos randomly in the past but have subscribed to his channel now. I did some reading on K&T and had no idea how big they made mills that big! Bloody good couple of vids. Thanks again. Tim
NICE SHOP!!!!! I love the round porthole windows in the brick wall. This Kat has enough space and equipment and supplies to compete with General Motors production line building automobiles ...LOL.. Thank you for sharing, this was neat. Dru
James' encouragement of not being afraid of buying a big mill was a little too late! Between these two videos, I let a KT 310 s-15 slip trough my fingers for 500.00!....really, really good shape! I'm just too old and didn't need it....i'm sort of kicking myself now!
Looks like you got a nice machine and had fun getting it. I just moved my new Smithy into my shop and couldn't imaging how much work something that big would be. Congrats brother. Mike
Adam, Thanks for taking the time and thanks to James for the tour of his shop. I know you were anxious to get home with the new toy, but you could have probably spent all day in James' shop with him showing and telling about all his stuff. Cheers, Gary
I wish I had more time to hang out with James, and even see the town more. But we were on a schedual and had to get back in time to unload and get the other stuff moved around too. Maybe one day I can go back for a weekend visit. Nice place to see.
It's about time we got a peek into James's shop..... And I reacon it's high time you got yourself over here to Australia for a visit too..... I'm already planning my trip over to the US to visit you all personally... So look out the Aussies are coming, lol ATB Matt
Sounds like a plan Don, It won't be till about mid next year, But as it turns out there is a hell of a lot of planning in such a trip. I have never left Australia, and the only reason I'm coming over is to meet you guy's in the flesh.. And of course I want to hit rout 66 because it's on my bucket list......
Hi Adam, James's shop has something I want.... LOT OF SPACE... high ceiling, windows etc etc... Fun to know Mr. Kilroy a little more, I also follow his channel with interest. You looked tiny beside the monstrous S15. Thanks for sharing, Pierre
That Pacemaker of his is the same size as the one my uncle has. I use it once in a while if I have a project that is a little too big for my 7x10 Harbor Freight lathe LOL! The Pacemaker is a hell of a lathe and every time I run it I feel like Im steppin back into the 30s or 40s or 50s. Its just cool.
Hey Adam, Thanks for the tour of Jame's shop. He has some heavy duty machines! I wouldn't mind having a shop like that some day! (It doesn't cost anything to dream, right?) Thanks again! Regards, Dave
Matthew has come up with a great idea, what we need is someone (Tom could be the man for that job) to plan out a route connecting everyone up, out there in the USA for us to follow, think keith may be a bit pissed off if a coach load of tourists pulls up every half hour, cameras at the ready, but hay thats celebratory for you. Just joking Adam. Great to see you so pleased with your new machine, I wondered about that vertical head and the missing arm, this video has cleared that point up nicely.
It may have been presented and I missed it, but James' brick building with the circular windows is very interesting too. What is the history of the building? Thanks.
Abom79 image.made-in-china.com/2f0j00nBeTRsilhkzf/High-Speed-Heavy-Duty-Shaping-Machine.jpg I am looking at the 6050. I need to decide if I need one, or just want one!
I love doing stuff on manual machines.. but I'd be loosing serious money if I didn't have at least one manual machine converted to CNC in my shop.. everybody needs love and one CNC machine in his shop.
Ok. I started laughing when James called yourselves the hardest working on RUclips. And on that day and that time, perhaps. I’m not ragging or anything. But Jamie is the hardest worker on RUclips. Look him up. Building his own fortess island out of concrete guaranteed against the zombie apocalypse. Jamie Mantzel (search) “adventure builders club”. He is the hardest working person in RUclips. I worry for his joints. Hehe
At 23:17 there is an electrical panel with the cover removed. If this was done because there is currently work being done inside, OK. If this panel is open because it just never got put back, please tell James to put that cover on, you might be moving a long pipe or something and accidentally stick it in the panel. You will get dirt and chips in the panel. Nothing good will happen - please tell James to cover the panel!
Adam,
Thanks for sharing. If there's one thing I've learned its that buying machines is only the first step. It's the tooling that really adds up. I'm constantly amazed how much tooling some of you guys have. huge investment.
The machines are just one piece of the puzzle. Stocking up with tooling, both cutting and work holding can run up the investment big time.
This is what I like best about RUclips. AvE introduced me to Adam's channel, and in turn Kilroy.
It's cool to learn from people who know what they're talking about.
That mill of James is huge. Thanks for the tour. I have seen James shop from his video's, had no idea where he was located. Neat old building with the round windows in brick.
Perfect timing for my lunch. Love me some shop tours.
great shop tour! i wasn't the only one curious about what Mr. Kilroy had in his shop.
what a great space, a lot of really cool tools in there. thanks Abom and Gill for the camera work.
Great tour James and Adam I really enjoyed seeing into the hidden corners, that is always fun.
Awesome tour, love the shop James, thanks Adam for sharing it on your trip.

great shop lots of room and you got tons of tools. really enjoyed the shop tour.thanks.
Some very nice machinery
The tool boxes just blew me away
John
Hes got a ton of nice tooling hidden away in those tool boxes.
Very nice tour Adam! James has a well equipped shop with some nice "little" big machines! Glad you guys took time to tour it!
Thanks!
Jeff

Flipping through the history of Adam's videos. My oh my.... and look at how far that K&T has come in 2 1/2 years.
Cool beans!
Man what a Nice machine shop.
Nice building he has. Love the windows and natural light.
Great tour! Those are some big big machines. I have the feeling this big mill would use up about 1/4 of my whole workshop. And 600 dollars seem dirt cheap. Over here in Germany used machines are so expensive, even in really really bad condition.
Great as always. Keep up the good work.

Great tour. Just Love looking at shops and tools.
I love this mahines. Great shop! Sweet lathes and the small shaper i love this tool.
Awesome Adam, fantastic machines tools and shop keeping the craft alive.
Beautiful beautiful working space there.
Great shop tour of James shop Adam!
Thanks for sharing bud!
Ray
Thanks for taking us along it was enjoyable.
James' encouragement of not being afraid of buying a big mill was a little too late! Between these two videos, I let a KT 310 s-15 slip trough my fingers for 500.00!....really, really good shape! I'm just too old and didn't need it....i'm sort of kicking myself now!
Shame. But we all have run across those deals. Most of us have space limitations or no means of picking them up.
The ultimate tool box tour.
Looks like you got a nice machine and had fun getting it. I just moved my new Smithy into my shop and couldn't imaging how much work something that big would be. Congrats brother.
Mike
Adam, Thanks for taking the time and thanks to James for the tour of his shop. I know you were anxious to get home with the new toy, but you could have probably spent all day in James' shop with him showing and telling about all his stuff.

That was a fun tour. Once you get your AC up and running, James is going to be a bit jealous!
Well actually james already has an ac in his shop. Mine's not far from being hooked up though.
Judging by the sweat you boys were putting out, I'm guessing he didn't have the AC running the day you were there.
That is one heck of a shop!!
Love the set of Transfer Punches in the cabinet, exactly the same set as I have in my shop. Very handy bit of gear.
It's about time we got a peek into James's shop.....
And I reacon it's high time you got yourself over here to Australia for a visit too.....
I'm already planning my trip over to the US to visit you all personally... So look out the Aussies are coming, lol

Matt
Can't wait to meet ya Matt!

Cool, enjoyed the walkthrough. Thanks
Colin
soon to be famous quote: you realize real quick thats your bridgeport a drill press and this is a milling machine .....love it!!
I love Keith Fenner 's quote..." The Bridgeport is a wannabe"! LOL
All you guys have some nice things!!
Thanks for sharing. Lets me know how many more things I need!!
Nice tour, many toys :) Cheers.
Hi Adam,
James's shop has something I want.... LOT OF SPACE... high ceiling, windows etc etc...
Fun to know Mr. Kilroy a little more, I also follow his channel with interest.
You looked tiny beside the monstrous S15.
Thanks for sharing,
Pierre
That S-15 was a BIG BOY mill no doubt. If one has the space and equipment to move, it would be one nice machine to own.
Amazing shop.
thx for the vid Adam, just subscribed to James... love so many vids about machine shops and so on... :D
James Kilroy has many good videos to watch. Go check him out. Thanks for giving him a sub!
He has some Nice machines and tools That is a Big mill
That Pacemaker of his is the same size as the one my uncle has. I use it once in a while if I have a project that is a little too big for my 7x10 Harbor Freight lathe LOL! The Pacemaker is a hell of a lathe and every time I run it I feel like Im steppin back into the 30s or 40s or 50s. Its just cool.
They are some nice heavy machines engineered to last a lifetime! For an old school lathe they are a top runner.
next time I use my uncle's I will be sure to make a vid and post it!
That was Great! I've used a Pacemaker lathe. You can darn near bury a insert on Free machining steel.
Hey Adam,
Thanks for the tour of Jame's shop. He has some heavy duty machines! I wouldn't mind having a shop like that some day! (It doesn't cost anything to dream, right?) Thanks again!
Regards,
Dave
Well in New York you have to pay for dream tolls.
cool... enjoyed the "peek"
Sorry for the mess, I have been cleaning for two days now. I had to move all that stuff around to move the machine out and that makes quite a mess.
All good James. Thanks for letting me get a peak at all your cool stuff. I'm sure all the guys watching will enjoy seeing too.
Matthew has come up with a great idea, what we need is someone (Tom could be the man for that job) to plan out a route connecting everyone up, out there in the USA for us to follow, think keith may be a bit pissed off if a coach load of tourists pulls up every half hour, cameras at the ready, but hay thats celebratory for you.

Hi ur tool room is so nice
N class... Good luck for bright future
Same machine I have too in my workshop.. At india
What is the history of his shop building? The round windows are fairly unusual.
Clive
It may have been presented and I missed it, but James' brick building with the circular windows is very interesting too.
What is the history of the building?
Thanks.
The building has a lot of cool history to it but well have to let James talk about that as I'm not good with all the details.
If I had that much stuff, I would forget where half of it was :-o
Very interesting to see that shaper as it appears that it is the basis for the new shapers sold in China. Virtually identical design.
Didn't know anyone was building shapes again. I'd love to see some links if you or anyone has them.

I am looking at the 6050. I need to decide if I need one, or just want one!
You should give away 5/16-24 taps like candy on Halloween! LOL
l like very much the shop tour.thanks
veoma lepo opremljena radionica i veoma pedantno sve na svom mestu...
$600 for the big mill !!!!! holey shit ,how so cheap for such an awesome machine ?
Nice shop.
By the end i was freaking out about insurance .
Then i thought man im old 😅
impresionante felicitacion por todo el logro.-
Great shop tour Adam and James!!! (but the camera work seemed a little shabby/shaky).
Gill
You did a fine job filming Gill! Thanks for all the help buddy!
$600.00 for that huge mill?!?! I want one!!!
How tall are you Mr. Booth? I was trying to gauge the size of the big mill...
Toby I'm 6'-2". Yea his S-15 is a little bigger than I.
Thanks. I was guessing you were 6'-3" :)
nice work shop and is this the place were Michael Jacksons smooth criminal was filmed ?? :D
One of my favorite songs by MJ. I can see the similarities of the building and in that video.
Nice K&T, plain or universal ?
It's a plain mill. It does have the vertical head too.
I love doing stuff on manual machines.. but I'd be loosing serious money if I didn't have at least one manual machine converted to CNC in my shop.. everybody needs love and one CNC machine in his shop.
You got to get lapel microphones Abom!
600 for that giant...wow
