You never have to apologize for the length of your videos. Most of us would like them all this long. Great work on that hammer and I can't wait to see the base
Don’t apologize for the length, it was enjoyable all the way through. Love the hammer and those translucent pants are beautiful. Thanks again for all you do. I always leave smarter after watching.
John, enjoyed everything in tonight's episode and the machinists hammer was beautiful. You can carry on making these long episodes as far as I am concerned as they are so very enjoyable.
Photos of your father never get old, I’m always amazed. Just a tank. He’s like Michael Clark Duncan in the green mile. Just a beast for the time. As a father his physique is inspirational lol but seriously.
Loved the episode, especially the scraper segment. I'm a knifemaker and somebody just turned me on to plastic razor blades. They are fantastic. They fit into any razor blade scrapper you have and they really work well and the best part is you don't have to worry about scratching metal surfaces when scraping off dried epoxy. Give them a try. ps. I really love your electric motor rebuilds.
Hi Jon , I forgot to add my penny the other day about the can , I said 81 too , maybe it’s the generation of your viewers , those of us 80s people knew a thing about class and style , and I actually saw snoopy today , I remembered to look out for him , he was in the war defenders , and I never even noticed before you said at the end how long the video was , time just flies when your having fun , great job as always, no complaints here !!!
Might it be used in setting up the spokes? Bending the ends and crimping the screw. There are spoke wrenches for tighting spokes. Could this be used in making the spoke?
Going to that show for a guy "who stopped buying tools" is like the non drinking alcoholic hanging out at the bar! Cool tools. My favorite ratcheting screwdriver is a stubby S&K....about the size of a golf ball. Imagine that. I use long blades from Gearwrench in it.
It is funny when John apologize for the long video. I think the show should be in between 15 and 20 minutes, everyday, twice a day. Morning and night edition. It is always a joy to watch you.
Was introduced to that scraper by Erik O of the South Main Auto Repair channel in Avocado NY. Great for removing gasket material as you've shown without gouging the surface. Love that little hammer. Great one today ScoutCrafter. Thanks
Loved the machinist hammer refurb. I can’t wait until I get my lathe refurbed, so I can make one of these. Thanks for the view of the tool show. Best Regards, John
Just an idea with the wheel tight pliers. Back in the days before security locked rims on cars, it was not uncommon to see decorative metal caps sometimes over the lug nuts but the ones I had in mind were friction fit on Schrader valve caps. A bunch of JDM cars in the early 80s popularized them. They were friction fit but there was a casting lip inside the blind hole that had a rather sharp burr. So if you wanted to make one of these decorative caps, you had to slide the rubber cap inside the metal one and then put needle nose pliers inside and gently press out. The idea was to embed the Burr in the plastic without damaging the plastic threads. That's a pretty narrow use case, not terribly likely, I happen to have some of these decorative caps just at hand and the scale certainly seems right
Most guys my age had machine shop in high school. One of the projects was to make a hammer out of various round stock. It taught you boring, threading, machining, polishing, and heat treating in the furnace. Along with machine shop was the woodshop, print shop, electric shop, and plumbing shop. These were offered to all the boys not just the vo-tec students.
Great video and I love the colours on the hammer. I have a love/ hate thing for the swap meet videos as I love to see the great items for sale but the prices are so cheap I wanna cry that I’m not there😂😂😂. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
Great video SC! Looked like Zagray was a great event. That lever action Parker was really unique. Nice work on the hammer and the colors really make it pop!
That light you pointed out, I have the same love for all things gimbled. The more complex the better. I have a great ships compass and pinnacle that has a very ornate gimbal system using Quicksilver as a weight. I often buy large tool lots, I'm sure you're aware how rarely used the very large micrometers are. They chew up way too much drawer space for my taste. I discovered that the anvil is the same size as a dial test indicator stand so I use extra snugs to make the 22-in micrometer gimbal the 20-in, use the snugs to make right angles, then down to 18 in, 16-in etc. It makes for a pretty cool display, it doesn't move quite as freely as I might wish, but it's unusually enjoyable to fiddle with
I just picked up a few drawers of machinist tools at a sale down the block. The machinist made a scrapper out of a stainless steel Korea butter knife. I'll show you at the next show.
No need to apologize for a long video. I loved every minute! I made it to Zagray Sunday however I was told the number of vendors was much less than Saturday. I still managed to find a few things but nothing like the gem of machinist hammer you picked up.
Hi Scott- Sundays are always very limited in most shows, however you can get some really good deals on Sunday because people don't want to bring the stuff home again! =D
Also, a little hack I came up with for using those long wire brushes on my drill press. I take a 3” or 4” long piece of brake line and slide it over the shaft, it’s like a 360 degree platen so you can hold and direct the brush and apply more or less pressure wherever you need it
The hammers were super but the carbide scraper was IT! And Snoopus breathing down your neck and him with hearing protection. Smiley will get his back up. Happy week, John! BLESSINGS!
Hi Very late to the scoutcrafter channel. But sure am I ran across it ! I've caught the tool bug lol. The wheeltite tatone as soon as I seen it i couldn't believe my eyes! My father had this in his toolbox! He told me about using it to put tires on his tether car rims and models. I'm looking through a magazine called model car science 1966 issue 126 and it does mention the wheeltite tool. It reads Don't twist a tire to tighten a wheel and you don't have to with this new and different."wheeltite" cast aluminum plier from tatone. Then it goes on to say stuff about tires running true and this tool. So glad i seen another one.great channel and will be watching more
The mystery tool looks like it could be to open the old clamps that were around 1 inch made of heavy spring wire. they were on washing machines etc.. It looks like you squeeze the tool, put it over the clamp ends, and then when the tool closes it opens the clamp, then you place the clamp on the hose.
As far as the 1981 can of Crush goes, I remember a study done where because most people are right handed, they tend to gravitate towards selecting whatever is on the right side of their screen/paper and where was the 1981 can? Top right of the list!
No apology needed on the length of the video John. It was great today. I like what you did to the machinist hammer. I too was surprised on the orange crush can. Lots of good 50c tools😃Thank You for sharing.
Sometimes when I see you post from these shows I wish I could find stuff like that here in Texas. The prices there are so cheap compared to here. Great finds. I might have to rent a Uhaul and head up there lol
ScoutCrafter, Story time. My wife and I and our three dogs were evacuating Houston for Hurricane Ike in 2008. We were in one car and my wife's sister was in another. We got separated from each other. We pulled over to wait in a dirt lot, sitting there was an old bus with a flat tire. They had a spare tire and a jack, but no tire iron. Your tire iron would have saved the day. Vessel running lights red - port, green - starboard. Bob
It's a good thing you have stopped buying tools, or we would never see some of the neat things that come into your possession. Great tribute to whomever made that little machinists hammer.
Great content!! I think you should make all your videos longer!! I think everyone would enjoy that! Just keep up the great work man! Thanks for the knowledge and encouragement!
One of my favorite scraping tools is just a small scrap of durabar. It's basically the closest thing to the cast iron of tools from the middle of the century. I really like it because it's hard enough to take down paint or even rust, but it's generally soft enough to conform to details. If you use a little bit of camp gas, the graphite from the durabar makes a kind of slurry. I put the same type of edge on that one would put on a carbide flaker. It's one of my at least once a week tools
I love that 50 cent hammer, but you should make a screw on Delrin cap for the bottom for storage, Black in color for Cotter Pins or Brass rivets storage 🤔
John great to see you and the guys at Zagray farm museum glad you guys like my tools and other items at my spot,people like you are harder to find everyday! I’m sure that you’re videos take time,I enjoy every part and never apologize for being to long!
Brian! Thanks so much for the flashlight and even though there were a lot of vendors you were really hopping! I kept seeing people peeling off cash to give to you! I bet your Son did great at Jacktown too. Thanks again!!!
Great work on the hammer. Love the Radio Row wrench. I got some great deals at the Hamfest yesterday. Just too many great things happening over the weekend. I’ll share my finds soon.
Great video Scoutcrafter, loved the hammer and the tribute to it's maker, loved those colours. Thanks for taking us along to the show, I'll say it again, how I'd love to come along with you. Take care my friend 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧✌️
Another fantastic episode Scout. The only thought I have on the wheeltite pliers is maybe for tyre puncture repair.. opens up the hole (after drilled out) then pull a rubber bung through! More than likely not though😆.. the wheeltite name just got me thinking. All the best , Cheers Rob
Man watching you at zagray reminds me of when I used to go to them with my father and it makes me want to go again. The pliers are by an RC company named Tatone they have been around a long time and they are known for their use of aluminum however I can’t tell you their exact purpose.
You have me watching twice, Scout. First to find that damn Snoopy, then, a second time for content. If I really want to see Snoopy, all I have to do is rummage through about a dozen boxes in the basement (unless my sweetpea took hers with her when she left).
That machinist hammer you mention looks alot like that mallets used in orthopedic surgery. That could very well have been apart of an instrument set for total joint reconstruction and the letters were the initials of a hospital or the surgeon's personal instrument set.
Hi John. Maybe it's a tool to tight the spokes of a bike wheel. By the way...great content in your videos. I'm enjoying myself greatly watching you. Be well!
A lot of terrific items and prices as Zagray. If I had been there and saw the vises at those prices I would have had to take one home. I will have to make a pilgrimage to a future event. I was at Jacktown and picked up some things from Bob Garay. I finally got a pair of Bernard parallel pliers. Bob had a lot of parallel plier at this event. Always a pleasure to get something from Bob. I already love my Bernard pliers. Dave.
Man I forgot to put in my vote but I did think the 1981 was the best looking in my opinion. It's amazing there's so many others out there that feel the same.
Bill has a new 15 minute video today, Not watching it, to long. Joe has a 17 minute posted today, not watching it, to long no time. Scoutcrafter has a 28 minute video posted today, damm, I wish it lasted longer, great video today :-)
The manufacturer name on that mystery tool is apparently Tatone. I found a website for company called C. B. Tatone, with the same style lettering on their logo, which sells parts and accessories for model planes, boats, etc. They are part of a company called MECOA, which stands for Model Engine Company of America. I couldn’t find those pliers in their catalog, but now that my interest has been piqued, I will keep looking!
Great episode. I was wondering what I would use the unknown tool for and decided it would be a hose stretcher if it were mine. For making the ID of a rubber/plastic tubing a bit larger temporarily to assist sliding over a fixture.
I know that for me the way that you phrased the question kind of steered the response. I think at one point you asked which was our favorite can and at another point which one was the epitome of the soda. I paused the video and pondered this. Many of the old logos were more appealing to me, but I was seeing them for the first time. I picked the 1981 can because I think that was stereotypical of my childhood. So I wonder how many of us we're answering the question, which can is most attractive, and how many of us were answering the question, which one feels right to your memory
"I stopped buying tools".... LOL
🤣
Until the next tool.
I say the same thing when I'm done eating....
"I'm so full I'm not going to be able to eat until the next time I eat " 🤪
Dollar and under tables don't count...
You never have to apologize for the length of your videos. Most of us would like them all this long. Great work on that hammer and I can't wait to see the base
Don’t apologize for the length, it was enjoyable all the way through. Love the hammer and those translucent pants are beautiful. Thanks again for all you do. I always leave smarter after watching.
I will never complain about a long ScoutCrafter video. What a great Super Mega-Mosh Monday! Made my day. Thanks John!
John, enjoyed everything in tonight's episode and the machinists hammer was beautiful. You can carry on making these long episodes as far as I am concerned as they are so very enjoyable.
I agree 👍
ME 2!
Agree with that , better than watching the crap I churn out !!
Agreed also. Longer is never a bad thing here!!
@@toolrestoration Oh, I wouldn't say that!
Photos of your father never get old, I’m always amazed. Just a tank. He’s like Michael Clark Duncan in the green mile. Just a beast for the time. As a father his physique is inspirational lol but seriously.
Joel- Needless to say I never wanted to take one of his beatings! LOL
I love the tiny adjustable wrench!
No need to apologize. Those 28 minutes wizzed by. Thanks for another great show!
LOL your videos are hard on my wallet. I'm now shopping for a super scraper. Great video as usual!!!
Go as long as you want . Takes our minds off of the news ! I really enjoy watching , thanks !
Oh and that Super Scraper was fantastic. The hammer also came out super.
Loved the episode, especially the scraper segment. I'm a knifemaker and somebody just turned me on to plastic razor blades. They are fantastic. They fit into any razor blade scrapper you have and they really work well and the best part is you don't have to worry about scratching metal surfaces when scraping off dried epoxy.

Like the long video. Now I have a new place to go for a tool show..
That hammer with the green and red combo looks fantastic 👌 👏
Hi Jon , I forgot to add my penny the other day about the can , I said 81 too , maybe it’s the generation of your viewers , those of us 80s people knew a thing about class and style , and I actually saw snoopy today , I remembered to look out for him , he was in the war defenders , and I never even noticed before you said at the end how long the video was , time just flies when your having fun , great job as always, no complaints here !!!
That hammer cleaned up so nice! You're right John, paying tribute to the guy who built it is just as rewarding as the end result. Nice work!!!
Love that hammer.
See you on Wednesday.
Have a Jesus filled day everyone
Greg in Michigan
I have to say that this video is a narcotic for us tool junkies. Awesome!
Wheel tight tool, may be a spoke adjuster of sorts.Just a shot in the dark……Thanks for what you do..James
Might it be used in setting up the spokes? Bending the ends and crimping the screw. There are spoke wrenches for tighting spokes. Could this be used in making the spoke?
Snoopy 😂 Hammer came out fantastic! Thanks for buffer wheel recondition tutorial too.
Ear protectors ." I'm not buying any more tools." Ha. Thanks, keep them coming!
I love Monday's.....Omg! I saw Waldo first time....😀
Going to that show for a guy "who stopped buying tools" is like the non drinking alcoholic hanging out at the bar! Cool tools. My favorite ratcheting screwdriver is a stubby S&K....about the size of a golf ball. Imagine that. I use long blades from Gearwrench in it.
Got to tell you....best 28 minutes I have spent all day!!... I honestly love the longer videos...allowing me to relax ..have a drink and enjoy!
Wow the knurling on that hammer is top notch👌...Many thanks again for the shout-out 👍
It is funny when John apologize for the long video. I think the show should be in between 15 and 20 minutes, everyday, twice a day. Morning and night edition.

I love my super scrapers out of all scrapers I have and that's a cute little hammer
Love the video! “I stopped buying tools”???? Yea, right!
With all the good content the length was not even noticeable. All good stuff.
I really enjoy episode like this one.. you have a steady hand with the camera, Mr. John! Great stuff! And the 50 cent hammer is sweet.
Video length was appropriate. Thanks for posting this fun filled episode
Loved the machinist hammer refurb. I can’t wait until I get my lathe refurbed, so I can make one of these. Thanks for the view of the tool show.

God bless take care 🦅🗽👍🇳🇿🇺🇸🔨

Hi Scott- Sundays are always very limited in most shows, however you can get some really good deals on Sunday because people don't want to bring the stuff home again! =D
I love your passion for tools.
You're right, we did find some similar items! It woulda been something if you came home with a Taz clock!
That is so funny... Especially since we were 400 miles apart! =D
Also, a little hack I came up with for using those long wire brushes on my drill press. I take a 3” or 4” long piece of brake line and slide it over the shaft, it’s like a 360 degree platen so you can hold and direct the brush and apply more or less pressure wherever you need it
Awesome tip Hester!!!!!!!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed the longer video.😁
Great job on the hammer, you have me looking at lisle scrapers now 🛠👍😁
Such a pity I’m not closer. I’d love to go to both of those shows.
I Scout , Another Great Show. Wheeltite I Would Say is A Spoke Adjustment tool .
John great episode. Lots of cool stuff today.
Like the longer video. Keep them coming.
The hammers were super but the carbide scraper was IT! And Snoopus breathing down your neck and him with hearing protection. Smiley will get his back up. Happy week, John! BLESSINGS!

It looks like you squeeze the tool, put it over the clamp ends, and then when the tool closes it opens the clamp, then you place the clamp on the hose.
Makes sense as those rivets would hold and be the wear points for the ends of those kind of small but heavy gauge wire clamps.
I was gonna say the same thing. Wire or hose ring clamp?
John, I'd rather watch your video's than most of what's on TV nowadays. Better content, humor, cats, mice and Snoopy! Keep on making long videos!
As far as the 1981 can of Crush goes, I remember a study done where because most people are right handed, they tend to gravitate towards selecting whatever is on the right side of their screen/paper and where was the 1981 can?
Top right of the list!
It is a valve cap remover and tightener love your video

Bob- It might have taken two of us to break those nuts! =D
When you mentioned spinning that tyre iron and whizzing off those wheel nuts
Brought back a lot of memories 👍
I hope that you didn't get caught in traffic. Another nice video. Good Luck, Rick
It's a good thing you have stopped buying tools, or we would never see some of the neat things that come into your possession. Great tribute to whomever made that little machinists hammer.
Enjoyed the not too long video. 😁
Great content!! I think you should make all your videos longer!! I think everyone would enjoy that! Just keep up the great work man! Thanks for the knowledge and encouragement!
Stop apologizing, your stuff is awesome 👌.
thank you Scoutcrafter, waiting for the update on the unknown tool.
The hole in the middle of that lug wrench is for a round bar to go in and give you more pulling power. I used one back in the day
One of my favorite scraping tools is just a small scrap of durabar. It's basically the closest thing to the cast iron of tools from the middle of the century. I really like it because it's hard enough to take down paint or even rust, but it's generally soft enough to conform to details. If you use a little bit of camp gas, the graphite from the durabar makes a kind of slurry. I put the same type of edge on that one would put on a carbide flaker. It's one of my at least once a week tools
What is durabar? Sorry ive never heard of it. I tried looking it up and a bunch of different metal bar stock sizes popped up lol.
I love that 50 cent hammer, but you should make a screw on Delrin cap for the bottom for storage, Black in color for Cotter Pins or Brass rivets storage 🤔
John great to see you and the guys at Zagray farm museum glad you guys like my tools and other items at my spot,people like you are harder to find everyday!
I’m sure that you’re videos take time,I enjoy every part and never apologize for being to long!
Brian! Thanks so much for the flashlight and even though there were a lot of vendors you were really hopping! I kept seeing people peeling off cash to give to you! I bet your Son did great at Jacktown too. Thanks again!!!
Big episode and I enjoyed every minute 👍
Great work on the hammer. Love the Radio Row wrench. I got some great deals at the Hamfest yesterday. Just too many great things happening over the weekend. I’ll share my finds soon.
Great video Scoutcrafter, loved the hammer and the tribute to it's maker, loved those colours. Thanks for taking us along to the show, I'll say it again, how I'd love to come along with you. Take care my friend 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧✌️
Great episode John !
Another really cool homemade hammer. I have a go to hammer in my tool box. Out Im not sure how many I have this one I always grab.
John, it was awesome meeting you. I look forward to seeing you at the fall show.
Adam! We had a blast! I am so glad you made it to the show. These shows are addicting! I’ve been going for 30 years!!! 😃👍
That hammer is fantastic. I love the scoutcrafter red and chrome look. The shiny metal really makes the hammer pop
I was thinking the same for old vintage car wheel spokes
@@castleladpaza76 Oh man that would look amazing
Long video? I didn't notice. Great stuff today!
Awesome little hammer.
Another fantastic episode Scout. The only thought I have on the wheeltite pliers is maybe for tyre puncture repair.. opens up the hole (after drilled out) then pull a rubber bung through! More than likely not though😆.. the wheeltite name just got me thinking.

Wheel tite -- Maybe you put a tire on the pliers and it stretches it over the wooden or plastic wheel. You sure it is an RC company?
You have me watching twice, Scout. First to find that damn Snoopy, then, a second time for content. If I really want to see Snoopy, all I have to do is rummage through about a dozen boxes in the basement (unless my sweetpea took hers with her when she left).

Dave- Bob always has quality stuff- Super nice guy too! So glad you made it!
Great video. Liked the radios at the show. That Wheeltite looks like a spoke tightener for spoked wheels.
I just had a thought. The wheeltite tool might be a wheel nut cap removal tool
Man I forgot to put in my vote but I did think the 1981 was the best looking in my opinion. It's amazing there's so many others out there that feel the same.
I spotted Snoopy for once hanging out in the ear defenders.
