Hey Abom, your father would be very proud of you as a son and as a machinist, any employer would be proud to have you work for them. Your work ethic is A1 and your workmanship is the best I have ever seen, you are a perfectionist. Keep up the good work Adam.
Great job Adam. You and your fellow machinists, the mechanics and technicians at Motion Pensacola do such great work. Your customers are lucky for sure.
As a Mech. E. student getting real close to getting out there in industry full time, apart from just how entertaining and interesting your videos and professional work are, it has really helped me better understand how the things that we engineers design out on paper and computers actually come to reality, and to do so at the finish and tolerance required. To you and to all the other highly skilled machinists out there, thank you. You guys and the work you do always continues to impress me. Without you fine ladies and gents the world as we know it would be unrecognizable. Keep up the great videos!
I hope that where ever you are getting your training, there is an actual shop to train in as well. My grandfather, as a victim of cooky administrators who figured that they could cut overall costs at their college by shutting down the machine shop or practical portion of the program. He was told that these were engineers and didn't need the practical experience. Well how the blankety blank blank blank can you design something if you don't know how to make it?!!!!!!!! I heard a story from a guy who was a certified welder. Went out on a big oil pipeline job (not the original Alaskan pipeline). The engineer told the welders not to touch the settings on the welders (stick). After working with it for a while, the welders went back to them to tell them it wasn't working, that the welds were no good. They were instructed to continue as told. Well, a ways down the road the xrays were started on the welds. Every single one of the welds to that point were bad and had to be re-done. It was at this point that the engineer told them to go ahead and do what they needed to. I've heard my fair share of other mechanical stories. If I remember, my granddad was really ticked off. Yeah, part of it was going into early retirement, but also because he knew the importance of having those students get the practical experience. Adam, it is a pleasure to watch you work. It's very clear that you have learned a lot from both your father and grandfather. It speaks well of them as your senior relatives, but it also speaks to your willingness to learn, not only from them, but from others, as well as not being afraid to try new things and learn from them.
Always go to the shop, every chance you get. Working as an mech enginee-nerd for that past 35 years I can tell you without a doubt that going to the shop should be mandatory. You will learn soooo much from those guys. Good Luck!
Dan Zanko - The machinists I’ve spoken too say the biggest problem engineers give them is ridiculous tolerances. For a guy sitting at a CAD desktop, there isn’t much different between a thousandth and a tenth. It’s just an extra 0 as far as (s)he’s concerned. But any machinist will tell you there’s a HUGE difference in effort and cost between 0.001 and 0.0001.
That's a photo that only you can describe but your work will live on. Wish I had one of my Grandpa master of all with my pops amd then me. I'm still carrying the torch proudly in the industrial boiler business and proud of it everyday
I am a mechanic from Germany, with a 3 1/2 year training in the company and in the vocational school. And we only know about America that there is no education there. But when I see how you working, I am very impressed with the professionalism of how you do it all. Wow
KEEP ON MAKING DADDY PROUD AND MOMMY .YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE SON OF THE YEAR. I AM FROM GHANA WEST AFRICA I HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOU A LOT .BRAVO .BRAVO TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. THANKS
Great old school manual machining! This is the way I learned as a Tool Maker in the early 90's and provided a solid foundation when later working as a machining engineer after finishing a mechanical engineering degree. We were turning out 11,200 con rod pin bores per day on a 3 station machine holding 3 tenths total diametrical tolerance with a cp and cpk of 1.33 all day long. Proper support and clamping was key to that process and probably the most undeveloped skill among my peers who never did manual machining for any amount of time. Great video! Now a couple opportunities to improve accuracy. The brass isn't a uniform thickness so trim the top first to make sure your indicator doesn't come off the highest point of the diameter when trimming the sides. A radius trip indicator is especially susceptible to running off the centerline. To find center, trim both sides instead of using the mechanical edge finder. Statistically they just don't repeat accurately. 100 tries and you'll get the same reading 97 times. Finally,, how do you know the location of your datum? I assume it's through the center of the shaft, so did you trace the diameters you sat into the V blocks for tri-lobing since Mics won't pic up that condition?
I have been binge watching your videos. You sir are an artist and your skill is just incredible. I love watching you take a piece of blank steel and make something so precision. We need more craftsmen like you in this country. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge!
Again you are absolutely awesome my father used to do some similar work he also metal sprayed and welded then machined he worked for allis chalmers many years ago. I wish he was here to see the awesome CNC technology we have now.
Hi Adam, as below, a great job by you and your co-workers (office staff included). And a big shout out to Motion Industries for allowing you to include this material in your portfolio. This can only enhance the profile Motion Industries have within the sector. Kindest regards. Joe.
I'm a wood turner but this fascinates me for some reason.....your attention to detail is unreal ....a man doesn't have to use a brush to be an artist...
job well done adam. you should be proud. most people don't realize the level of stress involved machining pieces like this. one awe shit can cost a lot of time and money. thanks for sharing
I really liked how you jumped between metric and imperial measurements without any drama or hassle. That says you're an absolute professional in the Industry.
Thanks Adam for all the footage on the gearbox machining, really enjoyed it, so nice to see things come together after all those hours spent getting it right first time, hope you have a great vacation.
Having seen the gearbox I'm left thinking that the casting must be stronger than it looks. The weights and torques in use must be considerable and I was expecting to see a heavier casting. Adam the gentleness and humility in your voice is a joy to listen to.
Adam, thank you I had forgot that I had already watched the first two in this series, I watch them again, what I thought was very interesting was your explanation of disengaging of the half nut and reengaging it would affect the metric threads on a imperial lathe.!.
When I first saw the thumb, I thought it was yet another clickbait photoshopped thumbnail. Then I noticed it was Abom79 and said to myself, no it's legit.
Nice work Adam! I can't imagine how you feel when you get close to completion ("just don't make a mistake" must go through your head). When you finally get to the finished piece, there must be huge relief...and a sense of accomplishment. Awesome series.
You get finished with a job like that and you feel like a surgeon who performed a life saving operation and see the patient walk out of the hospital. You and your company should feel proud.
I always look forward for the next part of the video everytime Adam made a job, and I always check my notifications to see if he already uploaded the next one. Time runs very fast if you enjoy the video and I never get bored. You always share your skills on how to do the job. More powers and Happy new year to you and Abby.
Adam, I'M in Australia.....another story. I am a retired US MARINE. First, your Kearney and trecker machine,when was it built? My uncle was with the company after the second world war. He was instrumental in the first use of computer controlled machines using punch cards! Another machine has Minneapolis Minnesota on the side. I lived there for 10 year's. Third, my son lives in Orlando. Small world . Mark Dombrowski mhd666@bigpond.com 😎
Very fine video of great work. Your skills at set up always impress me. When I used to help graduate students build research equipment one of the hardest things to convince them of was the need of care in setting up any kind of job on a machine tool. I wish I could have had them watch your channel! Have a fine 2018!
Nice to see, how many old mashines are used in the shop. In the German Company where I am working, all mashines are 5 axis CNC operated hitech monster. Only the older mechanics have the knowledge, how to drive this old milling mashines and lathes.
hi Adam that's some piece of work you should be proud of that the amount of sustained concentration to achieve the accuracy you have, and operate the camera amazes me begs the question who needs CNC like I have said before love watching you work man its artistry
It's the future Adam and a young fella like you can't afford to miss the boat. Far too many armchair experts dissing CNC machinists. They fail to differentiate between semi skilled button pushing production workers and tradesmen The guys programming the machine and setting the tools are every bit as good as the old school machinists. There are tasks being done today that are literally impossible by manual means.
i am a mechanic and i repair gearboxes from time to time, i usually grab them and support them on my chest, but looking at that one i think it would be the last gearbos i pulled down.
Wow, I watch a few machinist channels. I don't recall anything as large as this mill gear assembly being worked on on the others. Pretty impressive to see a gearbox that must exceed several thousand pounds being repaired.
Poor Swedes. They make some of the most refined and elegant pieces of engineered machined the world over yet forever will be known as meatballs makers. This is great advertisement for your bossman's company, Adam. It shows the precision and care you put into your work. Heck, if I had a Swedish meatball gearbox in need of repair, I would totally send it to you guys.
The foundry ( the gates says Valmet but it is the old Karlstads Mekaniska Werkstad) in Karlstad,Sweden, is the only foundry able to cast the largets yankee-cylinders (150 tons a piece.) KMW is one of the old paper machine making companies (Valmet is in this case a merger of KMW, the old Valmet company and Rauma.) The gear case could be produced in Karlstad,Jyväskylä (Finland) or Kristinehamn (my guess.)

This guy is awesome he is an amazing Machinist extra thumbs up he's a master!!!!
Seriously, that is awesome machining. Big parts like that with all the contours, keyways and threads. Much better than new.
I'm a wood turner but this fascinates me for some reason.....your attention to detail is unreal ....a man doesn't have to use a brush to be an artist...
say thank you to the boss man for letting you film....if i ever need some heavy machining, i know who i am going to use, such fine craftsmanship!!!
alex4alexn
job well done adam. you should be proud. most people don't realize the level of stress involved machining pieces like this. one awe shit can cost a lot of time and money. thanks for sharing
Very beautiful job Adam! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Adam Booth = master machinist. Super nice guy too.
Thanks Glenn!
Anytime Adam!
Adams 'mistakes and blunders'....? ..It would be short...and no repeats....
don't make his swell up too far :)
I enjoy watching the setup more than anything. Thanks for taking the time time to show it.
Well done sir. It is always enjoyable to watch a true craftsman.
I just realized .. you're like the Bob Ross of machining, and that's saying a lot.
And here we're going to insert some happy little bearings...
BlackEpyon and those chips need some more friends...
No room for happy mistakes though...
I can't remember Bob Ross ever painting while having a runy nose, (sorry but it's one of my 'buttons'.. for the rest very interesting vids...
Great work 👍👍👍👌😉🇨🇿
Fantastic result. That keyway milling would give me an ulcer. You're at the top of your craft, sir.
I really liked how you jumped between metric and imperial measurements without any drama or hassle. That says you're an absolute professional in the Industry.
Yep, no griping or bitching from me. Just get it done!
This was like saying goodbye to my oldest child. It brought a tear to my eye seeing it completed. Man I would love to work on that stuff.
Thanks Adam for all the footage on the gearbox machining, really enjoyed it, so nice to see things come together after all those hours spent getting it right first time, hope you have a great vacation.
Monster parts .... , always a relaxing and learning experience with you Adam .
i might not understand anything he says but damn i love seeing those machines in action!!!
Having seen the gearbox I'm left thinking that the casting must be stronger than it looks. The weights and torques in use must be considerable and I was expecting to see a heavier casting.
Adam the gentleness and humility in your voice is a joy to listen to.
I don't know what this is or how it works, but it's so amazing! The precision is insane
Adam, thank you I had forgot that I had already watched the first two in this series, I watch them again, what I thought was very interesting was your explanation of disengaging of the half nut and reengaging it would affect the metric threads on a imperial lathe.!.
Coolest thumbnail yet!
When I first saw the thumb, I thought it was yet another clickbait photoshopped thumbnail. Then I noticed it was Abom79 and said to myself, no it's legit.
No clickbait from me. I do however try to show something from the video that’s going to get the viewers attention! 👍🏻
Excellent work by an excellent workman and technician.
Very inspiring young man. You have an epic amount of minerals fella. Mum & Dad definitely are proud of you. You got class man.
Another fine piece of workmanship , Mr Booth !! ))
Nice work Adam! I can't imagine how you feel when you get close to completion ("just don't make a mistake" must go through your head). When you finally get to the finished piece, there must be huge relief...and a sense of accomplishment. Awesome series.
Nice gearbox and beautiful workmanship.
You get finished with a job like that and you feel like a surgeon who performed a life saving operation and see the patient walk out of the hospital. You and your company should feel proud.
Super high quality work, very nice. Damn 30 000lbs, massive.
Like the Abom size v blocks! Interesting optical illusion (at least on video) that the new shiny shafts look bigger than the old ones.
Very small gear units amaze me as well as very large...WOW!..Nice work ABom
I always look forward for the next part of the video everytime Adam made a job, and I always check my notifications to see if he already uploaded the next one. Time runs very fast if you enjoy the video and I never get bored. You always share your skills on how to do the job. More powers and Happy new year to you and Abby.
What fine workmanship Adam.
Amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm Brazilian and I really like your channel! congratulations!🇧🇷🌸
Adam,
I'M in Australia.....another story. I am a retired US MARINE.
First, your Kearney and trecker machine,when was it built?
My uncle was with the company after the second world war.
He was instrumental in the first use of computer controlled machines using punch cards!
Another machine has Minneapolis Minnesota on the side.
I lived there for 10 year's.
Third, my son lives in Orlando.

You are A king of an industrial work
Though this is an older vid, a huge thank you for allowing us to see into your very real business, machining very real parts, in a very real way.
Came for the run out, stayed for the rest. Well splayed sir.
Very fine video of great work. Your skills at set up always impress me. When I used to help graduate students build research equipment one of the hardest things to convince them of was the need of care in setting up any kind of job on a machine tool. I wish I could have had them watch your channel! Have a fine 2018!
Thanks. I take pride in the parts I build, and I take care in not damaging them while in process.
I like the way you show every step. Especially the measuring. Keep up the videos.
Holy moly, that thing is huge! I imagined it’d be large, but this took me by surprise.
Great learning opportunity for me :) thanks, man :D
There is something so satisfying cutting threads. Great vid.
Holy smoke. That thing is huge.
That's what she said!!! Yeah I had to say it. I was baited. I'm so ashamed: (
I love how cool,chill, and composed you are in all your videos.. Good job!!
Great vid Adam.......Excellent machinist work!!!!!
Your “not too shabby” is my best case scenario. Lol
Looks great Adam, sure hope we get to see the finished product. thanks for posting
A big thank you Adam, for yet another supurb vid. I enjoyed every second!
Big thumbs up from The Netherlands, europe.
Is there a vote for the best series of videos on RUclips ?. If not there should be. Thanks Adam.
There was a vote last year by the RUclips viewers for there favorite channel.
I received that during the Bar Z Bash. 👍🏻
And rightly so
That is one hell of a part and your skills are fantastic great job Adam enjoyed the whole series and many more of your videos
I don't even have a milling machine and never used on but I love watching you video's. great job 👍👍
Congratulations on your work..... Very good!!!!👏👏
Nice to see, how many old mashines are used in the shop. In the German Company where I am working, all mashines are 5 axis CNC operated hitech monster. Only the older mechanics have the knowledge, how to drive this old milling mashines and lathes.
Top Job as Per Normal Adom, Just such a great finish. Happy New Year from Australia
hi Adam that's some piece of work you should be proud of that the amount of sustained concentration to achieve the accuracy you have, and operate the camera amazes me begs the question who needs CNC like I have said before love watching you work man its artistry
Learning cnc is on my agenda, and I want to have cnc capability to produce shafts like this much master.
It's the future Adam and a young fella like you can't afford to miss the boat. Far too many armchair experts dissing CNC machinists. They fail to differentiate between semi skilled button pushing production workers and tradesmen The guys programming the machine and setting the tools are every bit as good as the old school machinists. There are tasks being done today that are literally impossible by manual means.
Very nice work. Always had pleasure taking blank chunk of steel and "turning" it into the finished product :)
That housing could make a decent size bathtub.
''Hi honey, wanna relax in the hot tub?''
''Once you clean the gear oil out properly, yes. Last time I had to shower with hand cleaner for a week''
You spelled hot tub wrong
Pretty awesome. I had the privilege of helping out at my buddy's machine shop that remanufactured machines called iron workers built by Buffalo forge
Bro, I'd be scared sh!tless to make those cuts, amazing work!
Geeeeeeeeez. Dude I couldn't imagine installing that momster. Good job
Calls perfect, not too shabby.
Very nice job. I've seen similar gearboxes on a much smaller scale, but one that size is pretty impressive.
I always enjoy your vids.have a good 2018.😉
Damn good set of video’s once again Adam! Keep it up!
Nice job, new parts was very beautiful.
Thanks for showing the small assembling Part! Great project, and you made it!
Nice work. That was a heck of a job!
Honestly I have no idea 90% of what you say...95% no idea what stuff you do are used for... But 100% can't stop watching lathe work!
I love all the watch parts you make ...
i am a mechanic and i repair gearboxes from time to time, i usually grab them and support them on my chest, but looking at that one i think it would be the last gearbos i pulled down.
Yay pt 4!
You do look after us Adam!
Wow, I watch a few machinist channels. I don't recall anything as large as this mill gear assembly being worked on on the others.
Pretty impressive to see a gearbox that must exceed several thousand pounds being repaired.
I have a set of Johanssen blocks. Here in Norway they come up from time to time in the used market. I love Swedish machine tools.
ABOM - We are going to miss you!!!
You and Abbe look like a great match !! Go out, have fun, screw the videos. Like I said, we are going to miss ya!
that seems like a neat place to work. best part of the trade is rebuilding and repair or being able to salvage something IMO. thanks for sharing.
Beautiful work y’all I can say about it you do beautiful work.
Your videos are amazing and enjoyable to watch... thank you. Learning so much!
Beautiful work!
how big is the reduction of that gearbox and do you know what it's used for?
It's a paperweight.
My guess is that it's a gearbox for a ball mill.
It's used for making swedish meatballs... Duh...
Drive box for a Swedish kitchen food processor.
Looks like a pulverizer, a big thrust bearing might sit on top of the gearbox at the output shaft.
I know its a few years ago now but it would be nice to see them put together when in house ,lovely looking shaft's btw
loved that............the way you play with the machine.
Another great job Adam!
This is so relaxing to watch thank you for the video
You have an interesting job. I wish I had taken the time to learn a trade. Thanks as always for sharing
Love to see your Works.
Always so good as possible.
Poor Swedes. They make some of the most refined and elegant pieces of engineered machined the world over yet forever will be known as meatballs makers.

M!
Was nice to watch this vid with measurements i understood for a change
That's some Abom sized gears! Hope you had a great vacation and a happy 2018 Adam!
Such a nice video there Adam. I always enjoy your work. Be and do well.
Holy Crap! That thing must be about 6 Abom's long; great work, thanks for bringing us along for the ride😀
The amount of things you need to know to be a machinist is insane.
