Watching someone work out physics equations in imperial is one of the most terrifying things I have ever seen. I feel like I'm walking away from a murder scene
I’m somewhat jealous. My Korean Conflict, Marine Corps sergeant father would never allow me to have a BB gun. However he did get me an Ithaca model 49 single shot 22 for Christmas my 7th year along with many hours of his personal instruction on gun safety as well as proper use. His opinion was that BB guns encouraged kids to shoot at things that they shouldn’t. In my opinion the single shot made me a more deliberate and accurate shooter. My next weapons were a model 88 Winchester lever action 308 and a model 700 BDL Remington 7mm mag so the idea of one shot, one kill, stayed with me. Although I was right handed I was born with extremely limited vision in my right eye and God provided me with a left handed father to teach me to shoot. As a friend used to say “I was born right handed but I overcame it”. Dad’s been gone now for nearly two decades and I surely do miss him.
the only good thing about airguns is ammo really.. 500 shots for $2.60 lol and they're arm some airguns that can be pretty high on the fps/energy line.... my crosman 2289g pump up .22 is modiflied heavy, breech, barrel and valve all changed out to make it shoot 17 grain pellets at 1600 fps :-) and yes its technically registered in Canada as a firearm, but shhh I hated the pellets falling outta the air only 100 feet away... I shoot 400 yard targets lol (big property so no harm done right)
I grew up with extremely trusting parents. Taught gun safety at a young age and my parents even let me keep my guns in my room at age 7. Although i was always told if i was caught playing with them they would be taken away. And i never really ever touched them without permission and I didn't want to lose their trust. My first gun was a .22 then a single shot 20 gauge then a semi-auto shotgun then an SKS. There have been more but those are the ones i treasure. I think teaching gun safety at a young age is essential i knew what a gun was and that it was not a toy. IMO you are more likely to have a child accidentally shoot someone or themselves if you shelter them away from guns. They should be taught the importance of gun safety and to never point it at anything you are not willing to kill or destroy and to always treat it as if it was loaded even if you think you know its not.
Christopher Hager hmm, I never thought about it that way. However I do think BB guns are a wonderful tool for teaching kids, or anyone for that matter, proper gun safety. Sorry about your father, they’re not there forever but man oh man, do they leave a big mark on your life even after they’re gone.
My Dad did the same! BB guns and slingshots were forbidden because boys will be tempted to shoot at each other. We had a model 49 for shooting with Dad but we had our own bows and arrows that we could shoot anytime. Dad cut the arrows down to fit. I remember bow shooting in the basement when I was in 1st grade.
*I got one of those guns when I was eleven. After about 5000 pellets my dad rehardened the spring with a butane torch, quenched it in oil and annealed the spring in mom's oven. My parents separated when I was eleven but I'm pretty sure it was because of lots of other things. Anyways, cocking the gun afterward was twice as hard and the pellets blew through my older brother's hidden beer cans. Something you might want to think about. Rehardening, not separation.*
I use to had a .177 spring rifle when i was 12 or 13 and I fired it until it could not pull-out pellets through the barrel, if I had know this those days...
I have an El Gamo "EXPO Junior" since I was a kid back in 1972. Last year I changed the spring and seal as they are still readily available here in Spain. It is in very good shape and still performs like the very first day. I've got very fond memories from this bautiful pellet gun.

Tony, you bring a lot of happiness and some laughter into my life. I have some really hard days and some extremely hard nights and there’s no getting away from that right now. But your videos take me away from that and put me in your amazing space and helps me deal with everything. Thank you so so much for sharing your projects and your amazing humour with us all. I appreciate you and the work you do so so much. So thank you and so so much love from Ireland. ❤️❤️
I don't remember where I learned this, so I can't give credit. But for shaping the recoil pad, attach it to the cutoff of the stock, do your shaping there, then when it's done, attach it to the stock. The point where you cut the two apart is close enough to the same size that it will work fine. Love your videos Tony!
Too simple for ToT. Machine a pocket, cast a small bronze plaque of his name, install plaque into pocket. I'm thinking a 5 part series on casting should do the trick.
When I make a flub like that sanding mark, I'll often follow it up by extending the "flub" to make it look intentional. In this case, I'd sand a strip all the way around the end of the stock before staining it, like it was a "design element." Then I'd say, "Yeah, I thought it needed some kind of transition between the original finish and the rubber."
That belt sander gouge is the story of my life. I’m so precise and particular throughout the entire process of a project to just muck it up with a goof like that in the end. Totally useable and functions phenomenally, but kills me every time I see it.
The TOT channel is the gift that keeps on giving. I came here for the machining. Then you roll out air rifle stuff. I love air rifles! Then motorcycles...love motorcycles too. Welding? Yup, got a Tig in the shop. And finally there's humour. I love humour, no joke. The videos might not show up every day here but boy are they worth the wait. Love it.
It's amazing how far air rifles have come over the years. I had a good old Crossman BB gun and a RWS pellet gun that was dead accurate. But now they've got big bore stuff that's incredible. I know a guy who shoots coyotes with one they're so powerful. It makes my Crossman look like a rubber band.

@Tt Miller .38 SPC only takes a few grains (assuming you're using smokeless powder, though .38 SPC can be loaded with BP)... compare that to a 1# container of powder. You could load a couple thousand .38 SPC with 1# of powder.
6:20 Thanks for actually showing the full solving process! In particular, the conversion steps are especially helpful for those of us rusty on dimensional analysis.
That barrel attachment you made could probably be reused to attach a wimpy laser to the air rifle I’ve heard that being “tacticool” is the new hip or whatever they say
@ThisOldTony I see you use paper a lot to touch off parts. You have probably heard of this, but here is a slightly more accurate alternative: Take a .500" endmill or gauge pin, lower your tool to less than .500", then raise your tool until the endmill just rolls underneath it. Now you are exactly .500" over your part. Lower your tool .500" and you are exactly at zero (depending on the condition of your equipment and tools). You can really feel how close you are, and if you drop your tool even .0001" the endmill will stop rolling between the part and the tool. Hope this helps someone!

What you do with metal is just incredible. I reckon you could build a tank that actually works out of a huge lump of steel (project suggestion lol).
As a gunsmith and a blcksmith (REME british army ) and college edjumicated , yes we have a college for blacksmiths in the UK ) i commend you sir , not a bad effort at all lol
The last line is awesome. I thurily enjoy you videos and your presentation. As a jack of all trade and master of none I am learning to machine with my little Atlas lathe and my (ya I know) round column mill, (abet more a drill). You videos have helped me along they. Thanks.
I love your videos! I have a 10 year old son that struggles with the grammar and rules of school, but he's gifted with his imagination and building Intuition. He spends every moment he can in our farm shop tinkering, welding, torching, and machining. He LOVES your videos. Keep up the good work and fun making!
I just love watching you machine stuff. I was a tool room machinist for many many years, and used so many of the tools you use. Square collet holders, slitting saws, dividing heads. Man I miss that stuff. It gives me warm fuzzies to see it close up and in action again. It was so rewarding at the end of the day to stand back and say “yeah, I made that”
When you have to blend in color at trick I have used is earth pigments and a can of spray lacquer. Choose some close colors. Spray a light, blocking coat ( also can be done with premixed shellac thinned 4 to 1 with alcohol) to prevent too much absorption. Mix your first wash color to match your adjacent color but not darker. These I would mix on a small plastic artist pallet ( the type that has the shallow indents around the perimeter with a mixing area in the middle). Apply the color sparingly, I often used an airbrush but a fine artist brush could work. Color the area. should be lighter or equal in tone but I have never hit it perfectly because of the absorptive nature of the surface and the base material influences the wash. let dry or use hot air to dry. Apply a mist of spray lac. Dry. Mix a color for correction/addition. Repeat. build-up to the desired color. with a very fine brush and darker tone, you can draw in grain and rays. when finished and it's dry, topcoat with your libation of choice. Poly is like plastic so it doesn't feather well. You can just use the spray Lac in layers . in this case whatever was used on the original might be best. Once hard steel-wool the area to bring it to a matte sheen (again based on the surrounding finish) the apply paste wax, then buff with a soft, clean cotton cloth. I know this may be a bit overkill for an inexpensive air rifle but better to practice on something like this than try it out on the dining room table for the first time.
I think I can conclude, if I ever had to figure out the energy of something to save my life... I would die a horrible and gruesome death. Where those "math words" even in English? Um.. 4 quarters equal $1! Take that! You evil math do-er!
"That's why we dont take on paying customers" love it lol You've inspired me to get into some hobby machining. I've got some parts I'd like to prototype and I dont feel like paying others to do the work. I like instant gratification too. I want my parts as soon as possible lol Keep it up TOT!
there are times when i feel guilty, watching such talent unfold on the internet medium, At those times i feel a sense of opulence, the way students following Socrates must have felt when listening to the teacher. this is a long way of saying, your videos are richly entertaining. thank you!
Seeing you do all those tool changes to make this tiny part should really send it home, that you need more power equipment so you do less tool changes.👍
@@alessandroceloria incorrect, human eye is average 576 megapixels this is so far beyond that its not even comparable. Soo to brake it down the megapixel equivalent numbers below refer to the spatial detail in an image that would be required to show what the human eye could see when you view a scene. 90 degrees * 60 arc-minutes/degree * 1/0.3 * 90 * 60 * 1/0.3 = 324,000,000 pixels (324 megapixels). 120 * 120 * 60 * 60 / (0.3 * 0.3) = 576 megapixels. If you do not believe me Google it =]
Easier estimation of energy: projectile weight in grains multiplied by velocity in feet per second squared divided by 452,240 gives energy in foot pounds, more or less. Thanks for the videos!
Thanks, TOT! When I cover Dimensional Analysis in junior high math class and I get the perpetual question, "When are we EVER going to use dimensional analysis in the real world?" I can now show them that if a youtuber uses it, it must be important!
Oh my gosh, I love your videos so much. Your sense of humor tickles me something fierce. When you did your 10-shot group, oh my goodness.

You don't have to be over 18 to use one, you have to be over 18 to use one unsupervised when not on private land, but that said I have never seen an air rifle in the UK with that little power, sure the "replica" air pistols (the ones that look like a Beretta etc) but they are normally CO2 powered, most air rifles are 12lbft and even the "youth" .177s are 6lbft but they are few and far between as nobody has bothered buying them since the 80's.

The last line is awesome. I thurily enjoy you videos and your presentation. As a jack of all trade and master of none I am learning to machine with my little Atlas lathe and my (ya I know) round column mill, (abet more a drill). You videos have helped me along they. Thanks.

I think it might have caught on after Tony's video as a way to intimidate people. I, for one, use it all the time.

I really hate the 30 second monologues about what people are about to do. Tony gets me.
I love your videos! I have a 10 year old son that struggles with the grammar and rules of school, but he's gifted with his imagination and building Intuition. He spends every moment he can in our farm shop tinkering, welding, torching, and machining. He LOVES your videos. Keep up the good work and fun making!
Nice to see that at 0:04 tonys starting to save his karate chops and starting to use the actual saw
It's a balancing act between keeping in shape and not wearing out the joke (and the saw, i presume).
I don't think that works on rubber, just steel.
The auto-generated captions interpret the machining sounds as "applause"...
I'll take it!
@@ThisOldTony Well, I can't say I'm not applauding your milling!
And it usually interprets running internal combustion engines as (Music).
Can't argue too much with that.
In my mind that whole math sequence sounded like AvE quality BS jargon
We just need someone who’s bigly clever to tell us if it’s real or not
@@uhhhhh262 im not bigly clever but it is correct
@@uhhhhh262 It was correct. Well, it was until some semi-recent changes in our educational system.
ToT is bigly smarter than I in this case...
@@uhhhhh262 If you do the sane thing and just convert the velocity to metric, the end result checks out at least.
Almost closed my browser at that "udder tangent" pun
I just love watching you machine stuff. I was a tool room machinist for many many years, and used so many of the tools you use. Square collet holders, slitting saws, dividing heads. Man I miss that stuff. It gives me warm fuzzies to see it close up and in action again. It was so rewarding at the end of the day to stand back and say “yeah, I made that”
" don't look at me that's what it was like when I got it." I've had to use this line before.

When you have to blend in color at trick I have used is earth pigments and a can of spray lacquer. Choose some close colors. Spray a light, blocking coat ( also can be done with premixed shellac thinned 4 to 1 with alcohol) to prevent too much absorption. Mix your first wash color to match your adjacent color but not darker. These I would mix on a small plastic artist pallet ( the type that has the shallow indents around the perimeter with a mixing area in the middle). Apply the color sparingly, I often used an airbrush but a fine artist brush could work. Color the area. should be lighter or equal in tone but I have never hit it perfectly because of the absorptive nature of the surface and the base material influences the wash. let dry or use hot air to dry. Apply a mist of spray lac. Dry. Mix a color for correction/addition. Repeat. build-up to the desired color. with a very fine brush and darker tone, you can draw in grain and rays. when finished and it's dry, topcoat with your libation of choice. Poly is like plastic so it doesn't feather well. You can just use the spray Lac in layers . in this case whatever was used on the original might be best. Once hard steel-wool the area to bring it to a matte sheen (again based on the surrounding finish) the apply paste wax, then buff with a soft, clean cotton cloth. I know this may be a bit overkill for an inexpensive air rifle but better to practice on something like this than try it out on the dining room table for the first time.
I think I can conclude, if I ever had to figure out the energy of something to save my life... I would die a horrible and gruesome death. Where those "math words" even in English?
Um.. 4 quarters equal $1! Take that! You evil math do-er!
his fault for not converting the velocity to meters per second. simplifies it significantly
aidanrocks13able I know right 😆 I think he did it that way to make it needlessly complicated
Ill match your 4 Quarters with ....( MUSICAL SUSPENS SOUND DUM DUM DUM) 20 nickels!!! and then something something big words 100 pennys!
The amount of dad jokes in this video just got you a new sub. Love it.
I always apreciate that you take your time to convert to metric units for your viewers! 👍

If Tony loved his child, he'd install a picatinny rail, a bipod and a red dot.
That's so funny, I just spit beer! 🤣👍🍻
"That's why we dont take on paying customers" love it lol
You've inspired me to get into some hobby machining. I've got some parts I'd like to prototype and I dont feel like paying others to do the work. I like instant gratification too. I want my parts as soon as possible lol
Keep it up TOT!
Best Dad joke ever... "Guess what?" My kids groan at this one every time. Well played!
This Old Tony. Putting kids on turntables since 2020.
"Hopefully it doesn't split the plastic...." Splits wood. 🤣 I feel for you. Truly.
Tony has to be the coolest dad ever. Thank you for the videos dear Tony!
It'd be a tie between ToT, the Tech Ingredients guy, Mark Rober, and Matthias Wandel..
Imagine the project a multi co-lab of these 4 would produce!
there are times when i feel guilty, watching such talent unfold on the internet medium, At those times i feel a sense of opulence, the way students following Socrates must have felt when listening to the teacher. this is a long way of saying, your videos are richly entertaining. thank you!

When Tony was grinding the rubber I was like "He got skills, I would had messed the entire wood part if I did that myself"
Seeing you do all those tool changes to make this tiny part should really send it home, that you need more power equipment so you do less tool changes.👍
Spends an eternity grinding and filing the prefect corner.
Cuts a slot across it*
Old Tony, you're hands down (heck, even hands up) the best narrator on the planet
They grow up so fast, he's already got a whole machine shop and a family
Did anyone else go "Oh shit I forgot about the filer" when they saw it?
Barreled Squid I said WTH is that? Haven’t seen it previously. Is that Tony-made or a production tool?
I was actually thinking about the old die filer the other day
Why would you saw a filer ?😎
"This is why we don't have paying customers". Yeah. And this is why we can't have nice things. =0)
"Don't blame me. It was like that when I got it." Great little project and a happy sharp shooter!
The humourous anecdotes alone make these videos worth watching in my opinion!!😁

@@alessandroceloria incorrect, human eye is average 576 megapixels this is so far beyond that its not even comparable.

Easier estimation of energy: projectile weight in grains multiplied by velocity in feet per second squared divided by 452,240 gives energy in foot pounds, more or less. Thanks for the videos!
Thanks, TOT! When I cover Dimensional Analysis in junior high math class and I get the perpetual question, "When are we EVER going to use dimensional analysis in the real world?" I can now show them that if a youtuber uses it, it must be important!

I have never seen something so over-engineered in my entire life. You sir are a true gentleman and a scholar
USA: Kids toy
UK: "sorry you have to be over 18 to use one of these"
hardrivethrutown australia: you cannot use these
Except, I've had reason to believe Tony lives in an EU country. US expat though, given his neutral accent.
Australia: Firearm. :-/
You don't have to be over 18 to use one, you have to be over 18 to use one unsupervised when not on private land, but that said I have never seen an air rifle in the UK with that little power, sure the "replica" air pistols (the ones that look like a Beretta etc) but they are normally CO2 powered, most air rifles are 12lbft and even the "youth" .177s are 6lbft but they are few and far between as nobody has bothered buying them since the 80's.
Tony lives in Germany most likely
