Glad to see old stuff not going to scrap. Wish I had time, money, space, and energy to do that. Keep up the good work, look forward to all your videos.
Great to see a bit of old machinery back in use, Last year I got the opportunity to buy a lathe that hadn't run since the 1950's. She started first flick of the switch after a mornings work. I use her for making bolts etc for my Enfield. Keep the videos coming please, thanks for sharing your thoughts and knowledge 👍
I would watch hour long videos of just you guys chatting like you were at the end of this video. Significantly more interesting than what you find on tv. Hoping for longer videos in the future. Cy is one of a kind
Yeah it's those tiny corrections I never get a chance to learn. I do own one thing I could practice backing up. It's a 10 cf cart for my tractor. They'd probably send the guys in the white coats for me if I was seen driving my tractor & cart backwards around the yard.
Newtronwest yeah that's what i was always told. The bigger the trailer the easier itty is to back in. It sounds counter intuitive. I wouldn't know my experiance is with little garden trailers and that's it.
The reverence you have for Cy has me appreciating your videos for more reasons than general construction/tool knowledge. Much respect to you EC. A fine example to everyone.
I really appreciate you capturing these videos of Cy on RUclips for posterity. I knew guys like him when I was a boy. It feels like there are far fewer of them, now.
I really enjoy your videos. I tinker in blacksmithing and welding and also machining, although I am a builder and a concrete guy raised in a family business of concrete work. Although now I do mostly building. All of your videos really stand out to me for obvious reasons and you sir are well versed in wisdom and I thank you for your work with the videos and time you spend doing this which is in no manner a short thing to do. I first came across your videos with the sawmill which is another hobby of mine as well with an old circle mill. So yes I feel similar and in tune with you and enjoy learning your tricks of the trades. Also keep the videos coming of Cy. Another man with infinite wisdom is enjoyable.
These vids have us involved. I imagined how one could get a machine offa that trailer without the digger? First thought, a good tree! Nope. Second thought...three tons of sand at the back with a bit of push and pull (and a lot of wrap). It took me six hours to get my lathe/mill into my shed and up high enough onto my desk. I used wooden blocks, multiple plastic drill cases (they bear my weight so...) and the rubber from a maul as a rocker. I levered it, rocked it and shimmed it from the doorway. Six hours, from conception to completion. Should have asked for help, but then I'd have missed the challenge. I asked the Missus for an hourly check and had her on speeddial for the safety. I loved every minute of that move!
I love seeing old tools reborn, they just don’t make em like they these days. I had a thought- you’ve done a couple excellent videos on the trailer and how to use straps properly. Have you given any thought to a video on trailering tips? As in how to actually drive with a trailer. It’s a learned skill that far too many people fail to appreciate and the fact that you don’t need any special license endorsements means anyone can hook er up and scoot on down the road without giving any thought to braking distance, handling at speed, or turning radiuses. Just a thought. Edit: You all have done far more than a couple of excellent videos, in my humble opinion. Keep up the great work!
Cy's little tool for lifting heavy objects out of trailers is Awesome and I want one too :) Hopefully, you turn the rebuild of this mill into a video series.
Looking at that mill brings me back, are used to work in an aerospace company and we had several of Cincinnati Mills on the floor I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had the gearbox out after a smash up
Great find Scott !!! While heritage buildings and places are protected heritage machinery is simply left to the conscience of individuals. Makes me cringe when I think of all the tools, machinery and equipment that were made redundent and scrapped from foundries, factories, steam engine and other workshops. I once salvaged a pedestal grinder and belt sander combo on a cast iron pedestal with a double ended shaft mounted atop with central flat pulley and 4 simple screw caps over the bearings for continuous greasing, from a brass and bronze tapware and propeller foundry, it's now driven by a1952 English Electric motor on a V belt, it was one of about 15 all in a row 80' long powered by one overhead shaft which drove all the pedestals via 3" flat belts all with various unguarded attachments, grindstones, linisher belt sanders, disc sanders, buffing wheels, wire wheels blah blah all driven by an ancient electric 3phase 415v motor in an overhead room you could walk in to service its ancient contactors and overloads. The shaft drove all the flat belts all day long and if you wanted to power up a pedestal you simply pushed the belt lever from the idler pulley to the active pulley. OHSA Australian equivalent shut the place down in 1984 most of the gear went to landfill as the developers 20ton excavators made short work of the place ,,,, now all the brass tapware comes from China and the propeller business vanished, all the guys in that place made redundant, one old feller there once made me a brass receiver for a Smith and Wesson pump action 12ga. An exact perfect copy of the factory cast alloy receiver that broke in half with minimal cleaning, filing and some drilling works 100% , amazing craftmanship it's still in my possession from 1979 and looks amazing with a light polish.
I know the video was about the mill but I think Mater would be proud at 1:17, "There ain't no need to watch where I'm goin', I just need to know where I've been." Trailer towing and backing safety and tips video? Keep up the great content I really enjoy you channel.
What an awesome machine! I've seen a couple (German I believe) convertible machines but they take a long time to convert from vertical to horizontal and back. Nice find! :)
You are all an inspiration, I am a nationalist who loves what make mine and others nations great. You are truly people who make your nation great. Hard work and the honour in it.
First! God created the heavens and the earth. Then he created man, then WOAH MAN! (At least that's what I say every time I see my beautiful bride lol) Then the serpent tempted man with "THE MILL". And he spent every waking hour in the shop trying to figure the darn thing out lol
Oh now we are talking!
Hand Tool Rescue ...Essential Craftsman should’ve brought you in to restore the Cincinnati.
The digger with the garden growing in the tracks was nice.
Welcome to Oregon! Grass grows in the bed of my truck if there is some loose hay or dirt not swept out for a couple months.
I'd like to thank you for letting us all virtually hang around the shop with yall. It's much apprecited.
I remember running one of these in my dads shop years ago! He ran manifolds on it for ford tractors ..I miss those days!
Here's to you Cy, May you live long and enjoy that new mill. Hope you can share with us.

Anxious for a video of Cy putting this machine back to work.
you know that excavator's been sitting for awhile when it turns into a mobile green house lol
love the old iron, need to start remaking these old manual machines!
That was a pretty impressive feet of trailor backing as well.
I thought the same. I know how to do it, but as I don't own one, I never get enough practice to get beyond the not crashing into things level.
Yeah it's those tiny corrections I never get a chance to learn. I do own one thing I could practice backing up. It's a 10 cf cart for my tractor. They'd probably send the guys in the white coats for me if I was seen driving my tractor & cart backwards around the yard.
I learned by putting my hand on the bottom of the steering wheel, then turning the wheel in the direction I wanted the trailer to go.
Newtronwest yeah that's what i was always told. The bigger the trailer the easier itty is to back in. It sounds counter intuitive. I wouldn't know my experiance is with little garden trailers and that's it.

Hey good for you Cy. happy for ya.
Having that beastly combo of a trailer/truck has got to be so handy even outside of work related tasks.
Yea for Cy /Santa came early!🎅🎅🎅
EC you 2 make quite the pair!
Glad to see you help him get it home safely. That's what a friend is for.

Excellent score Cy! Had one like that back in my Navy days. There wasn't much it couldn't do!
Grats Cy.... heck of a find... heck of a life achievement to breath new life into, respect, and own.. far better than me.
A cincinnati boy born and bred this makes me very happy to see. Thanks for saving it!

I can't wait to see the creations that Cy pulls out of this machine.
Hope we see a video of this machine in action.
Its so nice to see old people being active instead of wasting away in some park bench.
I Love this channel! The content is absolutely amazing, and I'm learning so much in every video. Keep up the great work guys!
Beautiful, ready for another 3 generations of use. Priceless!!!
I look forward to seeing it run.
Great find and a fine outcome for sure. Now to buy some tooling. Thanks for the video.
Great and interesting content !! Thank you Nate and Scott and Cy !!!! Be safe and God bless you all !!!!!!! Eddy
All the way from Cincinnati, OH....you guys are awesome! Great find.
We have one of these beasts at our work! Cincinnati are great.
Congrats, Cy! Looks good!
Great find Scott !!!

Wow! Such a quality tool! I love the design of the old mills!
Yeah buddy can’t wait to see something born off of it!
It looks really nice. I wish I had a proper workshop...
Battleship gray looks good on anything! Keep up the great work!
We're still using those mills at work!
Nice backing with that trailer.
Beautiful Made when things were meant to last.
Wish I had one. They are a lot of fun
I’m 71 and I don’t have half of Cy’s energy. I’m jealous. Also, looks like this was filmed last spring.
can't wait to see it in action
Of course Cy has a trackhoe handy for just the occasion!
I know the video was about the mill but I think Mater would be proud at 1:17, "There ain't no need to watch where I'm goin', I just need to know where I've been." Trailer towing and backing safety and tips video? Keep up the great content I really enjoy you channel.
Notice the half twist in the tie downs
Zach Briggs I actually noticed that there weren't any. Did I miss them or is that sarcasm?
I saw one, but maybe because the straps are so thick it’s not necessary. I’m not sure. It was more sarcasm haha
I'd imagine he didn't go over 30 with that thing. I sure as heck wouldn't.
What an awesome machine! I've seen a couple (German I believe) convertible machines but they take a long time to convert from vertical to horizontal and back. Nice find! :)
Can’t wait see what you make with it!
So jelious cy nice find
You are all an inspiration, I am a nationalist who loves what make mine and others nations great. You are truly people who make your nation great. Hard work and the honour in it.
greystateofmind I'd be careful calling yourself a nationalist, but agree with the sentiment whole heartedly.
Cy is such a fuciking legend.
I thought the guy that outbid me on that looked familiar! Have to love I5 auctions.
ROCK-ON --- CY !!!
Nice piece of gear. And I noticed that trailer didn't squat a bit with loading/unloading.
hey cy I don't think the mill is from the early 40's, it says '1592' right on the side
UnitedStatesofBuild model number
I think that was a girl's phone number.
UnitedStatesofBuild it was not built in the 1500's lmao
UnitedStatesofBuild you need Jesus, son.
Some people just don’t get jokes. :)
looks a sweet mill ...
Seeing My work makes me think of...and miss... My Grandfathers.
That's amazing!!!
Your truck looks serious!
How it should.
An 80 year old man buying another tool - very inspiring.
Beautiful guitar arrangement. Do we know who played it?
can you tell Cy if he can please make a video of him running and using the Bridgeport I like to see it in action . thank you and take care
Would be great to see it in action.
NICE!
Hauling in ol'Dumpy!
Manliest men in the entire state if Oregon.
More story time from Cy audio while watching the shaper make chips.
Фрезер есть, теперь подписывайтесь на канал дядьки максима.
Хороший станок.
I learned that Ridgid makes peddinghaus anvils. They start at $650 to $1600 and apparently have a 500 year warranty
Guys like you and Cy are a rarity these days. Oregon is a better place for having y'all
Only real men can back a trailer that far.
Very nice get.
Jim
Great videos, but they need to be longer!
Any chance of a follow up video?
I'm guessing all the dogs that weren't afraid to run in front of tracked equipment are no longer around. Funny how that works out.
This should be on the discovery channel or the history channel.
I didn't see any twists in those straps :-P
Who threw a thumb down? Boggles the mind , great vid thumb up
You do realize, now that Cy has that spiffy 'ol mill, we are going to want to see what he plans to use it for.
I'm guessing that missing handle won't be a problem for long...
I recently read that when an old man dies, a library burns.
Let's get that library down on video before that happens.
Why a mill? His eyes are all he ever uses anyway and he’s dam good too, 👍🏽👍🏽
Should have nabbed that shaper too!
First! God created the heavens and the earth. Then he created man, then WOAH MAN! (At least that's what I say every time I see my beautiful bride lol) Then the serpent tempted man with "THE MILL". And he spent every waking hour in the shop trying to figure the darn thing out lol
Who sets up all these damn cameras
Built to last till time it's self comes crumbling to the ground.
Looks kinda a 2MH
Cincinnati at one time, was the Machine Tool capital of the world, not anymore, sad.
I wonder what it's like to a have a bulldozer at your disposal
Jealous
