Please ignore the trolls that comment about your organization. As an owner of a disaster myself I value having all of the capability I need over a pristine clean shop, because the shop needs to do work, not run in beauty pagents. Thanks for your content, you are one of my top 4 channels to watch, and all 4 of you are tied for 1st.
Thanks Mr.Howee nice video. As long as I have watched this channel, one thing I have learned you are extremely diverse with your knowledge and experience, machinist, welder fabricator, engineer, diesel machanic, heavy machinery mechanic. Whatever comes along you just do it!. Much respect. 👍👍 Your shop is just fine, you do not need to make any explanations what so ever. Have a great weekend. 👍 🇺🇸👍
Your attitude is down to earth and realstic. My first boss was a retired Navy Master Chief. Machinest mate. Proably not saying it right since I'm not navy. Every day was like a boot camp. You could eat off of the machines,floors,ect. Ships at sea dont have room for clutter. Didn't learn much about machine work there. Learned more about dealing with dificult people. Wish the experience had been more like your shop, might have stayed in the trade. Ended up industrial plant maint.
Yea I worked in a model shop at a big 5 defense company for a while. They cares a whole heck of a lot more about cleanup than actually doing work. The worst was they did their little walkthroughs once a month and went through all your stuff. Making sure calibration stickers were on everything that looked to them at least to be a precision tool.
An old saying comes to mind: “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.” An aphorism that means people should prioritize progress over perfection. The saying encourages people to take practical steps toward improvement, instead of getting stuck chasing unattainable perfection. The purpose of measurement is to make something that does what it needs to do. No extra points for exactly hitting a number that is arbitrarily set by some unknown person for some unknown reason.
I honestly no longer care where something is made. I have top of the line metrology equipment and I have some Chinese equipment I bought 40 years ago, and frankly, there’s no difference in the measurements. Possibly if some people handle them carelessly, it might matter. But realistically, precise tools will all get damaged if not handled properly. It doesn’t matter where they come from, or what they might cost.
@@melgross Even in an alternative universe where this statement can ever be true, generally speaking anyways- that is morally f***d. if the west boycotted China for a week they’d be sinking boats, commies are crippled, and we’d be bringing stuff back home including jobs that cause common sense.
The rigors of mission creep are never fun... People never really realize how many tools are necessary to be ready for most random jobs, led alone being equipped for everything. Led alone indicators and other measurement devices. LMAO Tools gotta go somewhere, and you can only fit so many tool cabinets before something's gotta give. All of this also assumes there's nobody else using them, misplacing them, damaging them, stealing them...
Junk shop eh? some of the best shops I worked at looked very similar, some of the worst shops I've worked for were spotless with very little tooling available... Rather find me a shop that has the tooling or is willing to go get the tooling to finish a job. Seems to me the folks heavily concerned with a clean work top simply don't get any work done.
Yep. Means they're actually busy making parts all day not worrying about what the shop looks like. If you know where your tools are and the jobs are getting done and done right! Then no worries.
10 minutes a day would do wonders for organizing. I'm not criticizing this shop specifically, it's just that it takes nothing to create a mess and only a little bit to keep the mess out
No, it was the radius at the end of the insert pushing the chips into a square shoulder, with nowhere to go. Sometimes the geometry of the required cut overrules what is best for the tool itself.
Junk shop lol....I've been in places that they could barely access the machines for all the goodies around and the machinists are second to none....I wonder if those comments come from people who write their own paychecks.... probably not.

Also I love seeing videos where you make something, I definitely learn by watching people do
Not a junk shop, from what I've seen in your videos, you have what we refer to as a "job shop/repair shop". That's the work I cut my teeth on.
Thanks Mr.Howee nice video.

... Junk shop ... Butchers shop .... No NO no ... An Aladin's Cave of machining Delights... Wonders and Amazing Knowledge.
peace

Best channel on RUclips!

I've made so many of those flange pilots over the years. Great job!!!
We love to see the machining work please keep this up.
Great video guy's, the Taiwan made are great, excellent work.
Nice relaxing video
I went to school with a polish Mike, good dude.
Really enjoy your videos and wisdom, hopefully we will cross paths someday. I'm here in the valley might have to make the trip up there someday.
The Fox Valley?
@@morganwiliam5574
Matsu valley
Very nice work sir
What DO you use as practical standards?
Slip gauges?
Or do you send away to a lab?
I bet you’ve got big temperatures to bother about, too.

@@jasong6027you can get job done, but would you not be interested at what cost?
I love to come work for knowledge 4 6 months there !!
I would love to work at that shop of yours
😎👍😎
This type of measurement would be a good job for an internal spring caliper, nobody uses it anymore but it is still a practical standard.
I have those too, but the lip is too short to get a good feel of size.
I've never had my 12" Mitutoyos stolen. Partly because I never let them out of my sight and partly because nobody knows how to read a vernier anymore
🙁
I don't miss it at all. Can move to China for all I care.😂
Was it sparking beacuse of the runout on the OD?
No, it was the radius at the end of the insert pushing the chips into a square shoulder, with nowhere to go. Sometimes the geometry of the required cut overrules what is best for the tool itself.
Very interesting, but why do you say “maysure” instead of measure ?
Predominantly American midwest dialect far as I know. Modern media exposure seems to be 'warshing' out many of these variations.
No idea, maybe your spelling one different, both sound the same to me.
I’m gonna fly out their n give u a hairs cut one day my wise old RUclips friend lol
Who does your hair and makeup?
No one!
lol, yeah I could use the millions to make a bigger “Nice” shop
Junk shop lol....I've been in places that they could barely access the machines for all the goodies around and the machinists are second to none....I wonder if those comments come from people who write their own paychecks.... probably not.
You're using the wrong tip in the wrong boring bar, the wrong way.
Please stop cutting your own hair 😂
