    You sir, are brilliant! I am still scratching my head on how to make a copy lathe but in a smaller format. But I am glad I found your videos! Thank you. Liked and Subbed!!

    Don't worry, I get notified of all your videos! :) I checked and RUclips hasn't missed a single one in a year (about the time I've been subscribed).
    I quite cherish the bell system - it means I can be subscribed to channels but only be notified occasionally, or for every video (like I am for yours). And then some channels I have set to never being notified, because I've grown tired of their brand for a bit - but the RUclips algorithm will still suggests them in the related videos. I'll also occasionally go through my subscription list and re-bell the people I've missed. Which means once in a while, I get to fall in love again. It's more elegant than having to unsubscribe altogether, after which the algorithm only rarely recommends that channel again, or I forget what it's called.
    It's a bit more finicky than the yes/no system they had before, no doubt. But I think I would be subscribed to way less channels if I had to be notified of every single video on every single one. Some channels post every day, and it gets to be a bit much.
    I do think the standard bell setting should be full notification! For people who don't want to fuss with it.

  • @dwegmull
    @dwegmull 5 лет назад

    My understanding of pipe sizes is they started by having outer diameters that were simple inch based values. The inside diameter was the result of the manufacturing process (I'm a bit fuzzy on this part). Then, as metallurgy improved, a pipe with thinner wall could carry the same pressure, so hey kept the oddball inside diameter, to be compatible with old pipes and reduced the outer diameter. The result is pipes that don't have any dimensions that match their "nominal" diameter.

    Hi sir, magnific work👍👍. I would suggest if you are using the router you maybe will see a better result if you start from the rigth site to the left site. You won't stress the cutter and also the cutter would be more accurate.

    Water Lines, seems to be this, defined by Inside Diameter... and by wall thickness, length thereafter.
    Your little threaded rod piece, was not far from any backyard leadscrew.
    I used a Coupling Nut ... affixed under the table... then only a locknut, ... a regular nut, and a simple crankhandle to turn it.... the coupling nut removes much backlash as normal nut would give.

  • @umlooad
    @umlooad 5 лет назад +1

    Perfect, I like the approach. I´m a little curious if the force on the router and the router bit at start time is a bit too much, because the work piece is uneven shaped. But I saw the Kress router does a good job. Well done, thanks for sharing.

      @@WayOutWestx2 so the bore diameter is not 1 inch?, A bushing is when a sort of 'shell' is inserted between the two 'bearing' surfaces (like those 'oilite' bushes you can buy, two things rubbing together without something designed to reduce friction between is a 'plain' bearing (congratulations you have made several excellent plain bearings with your anomalously sized tubes!)

    Just a question about bee's, would it work if I was to join brood boxes laterally with a piece of pipe and then stack boxes on top joining them laterally with pipe as to have a "twin tower" type of hive or even many towers joined via pipe? Just seeking your advice as you are the master.👍 I am a new beekeeper, and am in it for the bees.😀🐝

    • @WayOutWestx2
      @WayOutWestx2  5 лет назад

      You could do that, Simon, and the bees would probably deal with it, but they really want to have their brood area in the middle of their nest, for warmth, surrounded by stores. If the only place they can expand to is through a pipe then that might lead to all sorts of problems for them in cold/hot weather. They might not bother either - just decide to swarm so they can expand that way instead. It's all interesting though - give it a go and see what happens..
