      Indeed! Chris' craftsmanship is so perfect I couldn't help notice the momentary lapse at 1:34 where the Dykem didn't cover exactly 100.0% of the surface of the piece LOL :)
      I could watch this all day long as I pick up so many little visual tips and techniques for my own mediocre metalworking efforts.

      Blued, Hardened and Functional. Yes, Good One. Still chuckling. Oh, and yes, he is a bugger, hey. :))
      edit...and when the swarf is dug up in 2000 years, people will remark about what a far sighted machine it is.

    • @aussiebloke609
      @aussiebloke609 2 года назад

      I'm guessing he cuts the threads, then screws them into the part and marks 12 o'clock on the blank head. Then unscrew them and cut the slots according to that mark. It happens too often for it to be coincidental. 🙂

    I myself never had the skill in metalworking, either by hand or with machine tools, but I am completely fascinated at the incredible work Clickspring does.
    Many of the skills he shows off are sadly fading away with the advent of computerized machining and manufacturing. I sincerely hope that those who have the skill and interest in metalworking keep these older machining methods alive in the future.

    Hey, Chris !
    I'm a Norwegian woodworker / furniture maker and I reckon I'm about half as smart as I need be to understand what you're doing. But that doesn't stop me from gathering some small practical tips, oooh!-that's-a-clever-tool-can-I-make-that-of-wood? & 'good practice points' that I can use in my woodshop. I must have picked up a good handful or two of 'insights' / things-I-would-never-have-thought-of-myself from watching your videos, and TOT, Allen Millyard, Abom79 & other metalworkers (you can plane steel?! linearly ?!! with a humongous tool-pushing monster machine ?!!! wicked, black art, I tell you! Best stay well away and keep cutting wood with steel as Odin intended) Thanks! for sharing your brilliant work is what I'm getting at, I guess. You're a joy and an inspiration. Enough gushing. I've got steel to hone.

      The transfer screws (00:55) for locating holes are used a lot in cabinetmaking, too. 🙂 The woodworking ones aren't threaded, but their function's the same.
      Setting concealed locating/strengthening dowels into edge joints is impossible to do accurately without a supply of little pointy things!

      For Watchmaker its how we do a lot of very small stuff
      Its easier and faster most of the time to do parts by handturning compared to whipping out the Support, get everything straight and alined.
      And for tiny diameters its close to impossible to do it with the Support.
      And by tiny I mean Pivots of 0.2mm diameter
