Clark, I met you (and Dollar) two years ago at the Florida Flywheelers. I am so impressed with your friends. Wish my health would allow me to help also. Looking forward to your next update.
Stand the MAN lol! Love it Very nice video guys Cameo apperances of RUclips all stars Thanks Clark for posting. Shop build is going great. Country /Amish folks around me call it a barn raising!
Stan Z's impersonation still cracks me up! 😂 It's coming along beautifully Clark. 👍👍 You should be able to hook a VFD up to the fan, so you can adjust the speed as needed.
G'day Clark, greetings from down under. You're a very lucky man to have your friends come and help on the new shop. I thinks that's because the kind of man you are. Thank y'all.
Another great video! It was worth the wait! I don’t think you will miss that old lathe for long, considering how much floor space it was taking up! Can’t wait to see that induction furnace in operation!
You hinted at it, but i love to see a production facility improved upon by the guys who actually work there. When you have a corporate facility, "improvements" are orchestrated by people who usually have no clue what they're doing and seldom result in anything good. A plant i used to work at did this, and it failed so miserably that they ended up dropping their primary product line. They wanted lean production, and i guess they got it... The leanest of production is none at all...
Great shout out to your helper crew, Clarke.........y'all knocked it out of the park. I can't see any reason you would hire a supervisor, that's what the internet is for. 😁
I am all the time bragging about the wonderful community on RUclips. I am a student Machinist self proclaimed and receive all kinds of help developed. Many friendships from some very generous people. Looks like you had a great team assembled there and got lots of work done God bless all of them.
Your working area is look great. The only thing I can see that wasn't good is you should have done that before you quit your job so you would been 100 percent ready to go.
Because most of the molding will be done inside and all the pouring outside, I hope I will be able to keep the molding area fairly clean. Once the sand is mulled their won't be any dust
Im really surprised the county dont shut you down for having a foundry in a wooden structure. Here in ohio I know a guy that built a machine shop and it wasnt allowed to have one single piece of wood in the construction and it was located out in the country.
That's the new way of installing them. NEC does not care what direction they are placed as long as they meet the code. They are safer that way in a shop environment. Mine are installed the same way, too.
The idea is to place the ground at the top. This is to have anything falling and hitting a plug not completely in the outlet not short the hot and neutral together. Still looks strange to me.

Thanks Clark you’re welcome! Glad to be able to help out! Wish I could have been there!! Looking good!

The most impressive part of this video is the number of friends you have willing to pitch in and "getter done". You are indeed a rich man. KOKO!

It was a great time, Clark. I enjoyed visiting with everyone and seeing you and Josie again.

Looking good Clark! What a great group of friends coming together to knock out a project. Thanks for sharing.
Funny how skilled labor can fall in to their task with no supervision. Looks good gentlemen! Good job all! Well done.

We get by with a little help from our friends, and what a great crew!

It wouldn't be near as much fun without friends!
What an "A Team"! Super progress.
Thanks Clark and all of your awesome friends that is helping you my friend ❣ 👍👍

Best. Cold open. Ever.
That sheet metal building looks like it could melt iron without a furnace under a Mississippi summer sun.
awesome group of friends you have Clark. thanks for sharing.
Your shop is looking great. All this work your putting into it I’m thinking will make the work easier Thanks Clark
Lookin good. Careful with those fce. hoses.Thanks!
"I get by with a little help from my friends!"
Good deal for you Clarke, All of the new construction will be nice.
Thanks Randy👍
I can't believe you have so many friends that just want to help out.
That's some good friends!
Thank you for another great video. Cheers
Wish I could have made it! Glad you all got a lot done.
It's good to see James Kilroy is doing good I sure miss his videos.
Looks like great progress on the shop improvements.
This is what happens when you bring in the A team. Shop Mods are looking Great Guys!

Im wondering how much power the induction furnace takes? I would think you would need 480 - 3 phase.
It will require a generator, my power grid won't handle
@@windyhillfoundry5940 i wouldnt think that will be very efficient. A generator that large will use more fuel than your present furnace.
I'm kind of surprised that you went with drywall instead of something a little more "durable" in a foundry shop environment.

lol yeah but this is Mississippi! They don’t care much what you do!
You got a floor plan ?
Yes I do, but I am still modifying some things as we go
120 outlets are up side down.

Im surprised they would use plastic boxes in a foundry. I would think anything industrial should be steel.
