Time to get the arbor press off the floor and sorted. Stick around while we knock out a couple of its teeth and make some simple tooling! ----- Music: Epic TV Theme - Audionautix
This Old Tony, you are by far my favorite RUclips channel. I do wish you would post more, but I understand that life and family come first. Just know that anytime you post something, you make a lot of people happy.❤
Man am I glad you addressed the whole uncrackable pistachio thing. I started saving some myself, with the hopes of buying a press one day. Not doing that now!
The welding wire trick to help get welds square is something i learned from you a few years ago and has made my life way easier many times. Thank you for putting formerly tribal knowledge out for people like me learning things the hard way... But help is always nice when you can get it lol
As a non-welding would-be welder, that trick only works for non to low force welds right? I mean if there is a gap between the subjects, so only the weld is filling the gap that would not be very load bearing compared to subjects being flat and then welded?
No, it's not like hot melt glue, the weld is similarly strong as the bits of metal it's joining. And, they physically become one piece because the two pieces being joined physically melt into the weld and together. I'm sure there are specific combinations where it's notably weaker, cases where it's not permitted and even situations where the base metal is the weakest part of the bond, but generally, in most scenarios, just as strong with a gap or no gap.
hand punch is great, (never a problem) aircraft spruce catalog Covina california. l been buying great push thru broaches (square, hex, other) from Australia on ebay, great quality, way better price than anywhere. small arbor press from harbor freight has been good, great for reloading tool too. notha great vid! Thanks!
A little touch up on the surface grinder for the rack would be cool. 24.5 hours after bolting that seldom used stand in the floor “Now why did I put it HERE ?
The best thing about wire brushing with power tools is the tiny pieces of loose wire you will keep finding embedded in every piece of fabric you did or did not own at the time of the job being done. It always reminds you of the good times you and that wire brush had together🙂
This Old Tony is now an official Arborist! You should plant the press out back in the Arbor-etum and see if you can grow some mini presses...or maybe breed it with a hydraulic press. That's where pnuematic presses come from. It's the old story of the boards & the beads 😛
I worked in a shop (brand Yellow...) with about 40 other guys...one whom we nicknamed "Launch master.". Every time he'd use the 150-ton hydraulic press for anything, his tooling setup would look like something from a Dr. Guess cartoon, and he refused to use the safety cage...the entire shop would take cover. Same guy who shot a piece of 1-1/8" grade 8 threaded rod THROUGH his tool box. Entertaining.
So with it being my Dads birthday, and I was missing him something awful, I've been watching TOT all morning long. Like for the last 4 hours I've been watching my old favorites. This one pops up, and im scratching my head thinking how on earth did I miss this one? A TOT I've never seen? Wasn't till 3/4 of the way through, I realized it was just released. What a great gift, Tony. Dad was a big fan.
This Old Tony I get worried when you don’t post anything for ages, things go through my mind like may be he has welded him self to a project, may be misses Tony has cheaped out on the oil and you’ve rusted solid, perhaps he’s over modified his machines and they became sentient again but none of them have a finger that can upload a video please don’t scare me like this just post a screenshot once in while let me know your still turning stock into scrap
That 1 2 3 block trick with the pencil was worth the price of admission alone. And no, it's not free because if you're not already subscribed to ThisOldTony then you're just like that kid in too many '90s TV shows that sneaks into the movie theaters through the fire escape. And you should feel bad until you subscribe! But for real, thanks so much for another amazing video Tony. You're always an inspiration and few people on this planet have the talent to provide so many helpful tips in such an entertaining way. You're a true creative genius!
My Dad was a lifelong machinist for Curtis Wright. He's since passed, but I wish he was still around to watch your videos and enjoy your sense of humor. I think of him every time I watch your channel. Thank you!
2 month without a video. I WAS WORRIED ;) My wife was so relieved when she saw the notification of your video. Guest she was tired to see me crying in the tub hitting my head waiting for your video to come out. ;) Happy to listen to you again. 😅
For tool holding, instead of a set screw, just put an o-ring on the shaft. In my last job we had a tiny arbor press like thing to close watches after swapping the batteries. It used the o-ring method since you had to swap the tools to fit the size of each watch and it was really convenient.
I quit watching wintergreen when I realized he was going to finish the mmx somewhere about 3 weeks after he dies and someone else takes over the project.
Fewer teeth. Less custard; fewer pies. I hate myself for writing it, but I shan't sleep if I don't. I love you though, Tony! My heart skips a beat when I receive the notification. Superb video, as always.
Dang boy, RUclips gets awfully boring without some new TOT videos occasionally. Always a treat. Thank you for continuing to take the time to do this. God bless you and the family sir!
I don't know exactly how to tell you this but..... I've never been more entertained by another man's hands. Except for maby Bob Ross. He is legend as well is TOT!
Rachet mod made my day. I use mine exclusively for leather work. Rivets, punching slotted holes etc, and due to everything being a different length or thickness, I frequently end up in that dead torque zone. This will fix my issues 100%
I work on a lot of small pumps and the motors that drive them. I have a 1 ton manual arbor press. The “feel” it communicates is terrific. I need to remove a couple teeth. As soon as you started to mention it I remembered it. I am often at a bad position and probably would have never remembered on my own. Thank you for the prod. Great video, as always!
I'm wasting at least 6.25 hrs turning the shop arbor press into a ratcheting press on monday. It gets used prob 3 times a year. I'll charge time to the safety team so we're all good. Tony, you are the GOAT!
You just showed me my next arbor press mod! Mill off two teeth! I already did the hole for tooling. Mine lives on the floor, clamped to table when needed. That ratchet feature is going to get done.
Something’s wrong here. There are over two hundred comments here, and even though the only substance I’ve greased my brain with is ethanol, I’m still the first one to catch that amazingly smooth pun at 16:25-“Is that redundant? I think all molly grease might be high [pressure]”. Well played, sir, well played.
Its The same joy as waiting for a long off event knowing you have videos coming at some point, Thanks for the content, I can't tell you how many times in my life a ThisOldTony video made a ruff day so much better, Thanks again
Happy to say that I was able to maintain my composure though most of this video.... but I lost it when you threw the angle drive attachment on the arbor. Comedic gold. We all have our breaking points.
The Old Guy seems to be slowing down. He isn’t dropping enough videos timely enough to keep me on the edge of my seat in anticipation. Well at least he didn’t do what Chris of Click Spring did. Chris must have gotten a big RUclips revenue check and decided that he liked moneymaking more than our feelings. Yeah, I said “Feelings!” We can have fondness for another guy without it being the weird stuff. Ok, it does seem a little weird but it just seems that way, it’s not , ok? Anyway Tony must have other things on his mind. That is unless he and Chris have a thing going and we are just catching wind of it. Hey This Old Tony, what gives? Are you cheating on us or what? We demand (ask) for a response to these allegations! Please, we gots ta No!
I saw this drop in yesterday but I had to wait until I knew I could watch it uninterrupted. Hooray for delayed gratification and hooray for being a curmudgeonly old grey beard. Thanks This Old Tony. it's been a hot minute but I knew you'd come through with a video about an arbor press modification.
It would be cool to go to harbor freight and see ToT buying the same welding gloves I'm buying. Or saying he wants the custom xxxxl size they custom make and order for this larger than life legend.
Watched your video and thought what a great idea! So, I ran to the garage and converted my Dayton #2 arbor press. Works great! The other thing I did was add a clamp to the top of the rack to limit the travel if I need to. It is adjustable up and down the rack and hits the top of the arbor casting as a stop. It also has an Allen head cap screw for fine adjustment. Thanks for the inspiration.
Ah the sound effects were over the top! I really enjoyed this one. The tooling and socket is a great idea. Though I am disappointed, I thought for sure you’d throw it on the surface planner to clean up that stock. 😅
Once in awhile This Old Tony graces us with the gift of another great video and our meager existence again has meaning. Also engagement equals algorithm points. Excellent production and content as always.
On the pin-punches: Most dowel pins are case-hardened - and thus can bend. But if you use hardened drill blanks - they should not bend and are available in a much wider range of sizes.
Today was already such a great day, pay day, Friday, steak at work, making brownies at home, had a great ham sub for dinner and now a new TOT video? This day cannot get any better
I used to work at Santa Cruz Mountain Bikes as a frame assembler. Each bench had it's own small arbor press like that with its own tooling for carefully pressing bearings into links and frames. Very handy tool.
"I could press stuff in at an angle." doubled me over with laughter! SO GREAT. Thank you! Man this video has me thinking about dragging my arbor press out from under the house. Curse you!
Hats off to you sir, for regaining the same style and dad humor after several years of sadness (also of pruning tools videos). Glad to see you still have your old sense of humor. Welcome back!
This Old Tony, you are by far my favorite RUclips channel. I do wish you would post more, but I understand that life and family come first. Just know that anytime you post something, you make a lot of people happy.❤
I couldn't agree more! Tony for president!
Yep I agree we need more tool time with Tony!! Fart jokes, squeaky toy sounds, sarcasm, dry humor. And the Easter eggs❤
Everytime he posts something it’s like poison in my veins
Can't rush genius
Quality over quantity

It doesn't have any downwards force on it, it's only to keep the press from sliding off of the stand.
Tony welded the stand's post the same way.@@tubeonline629
We miss you Tony! Thanx for the vid, my day will be better now for sure!
And yet, you didn't press a single tree into the ground, nor a space arbor into a worm hole.
Fun stuff, ToT! 😁
I was smiling during this entire video. And, there was no weed, alcohol, or insanity needed! Thanks TOT
Nice! I'm always happy to see big pitsashio.. Pisasheo.... pistachio win over "THE LITTLE GUY".
hand punch is great, (never a problem) aircraft spruce catalog Covina california.
l been buying great push thru broaches (square, hex, other) from Australia on ebay, great quality, way better price than anywhere.
small arbor press from harbor freight has been good, great for reloading tool too. notha great vid! Thanks!
Ooo shoe reveal. Fascinating.
Babe, fetch me the computer, This Old Tony posted a video
My swedish ass having no idea what Arbor means in this context;
*YES LETS DO IT*
You are quite strong lifting that 2 ton arbor press.
Tony you are strong! 2 tonnes😮
We use these to hand broach keyways into some smaller gears we've hobbed where I work.
Thanks for being watched!
I love that ratshit idea so much, I'm off to the dentist to have two teeth removed from mine! Open wide! 👍👏
My husky used to crack are walnuts. Extra flavor too..
Did you consider tapping the end of the rack, instead of using a set screw? My press has a 1/4x20 thread that I put use to attack tooling.
A little touch up on the surface grinder for the rack would be cool.
24.5 hours after bolting that seldom used stand in the floor “Now why did I put it HERE ?
its been awhile ? TOT, I hope all is good.
Call me crazy, ToT could have replaced the gibb by laying the press on it's back. No grease needed!
Very nice stand.. but didn't even include some builtin tooling storage in it???
Commenting for the algorithm
The best thing about wire brushing with power tools is the tiny pieces of loose wire you will keep finding embedded in every piece of fabric you did or did not own at the time of the job being done. It always reminds you of the good times you and that wire brush had together🙂
'The good times you had together' being the little bits of stainless wire embedded in your forearm.
It's a good day when we get to watch a This Old Tony video
Yeah right! Today we got new videos from ToT, Inheritance Machining AND Electroboom!!
He saw inheritance machining posted and realized he would be replaced
@@gianlucatomasello9492 I run all 3 channels.
@@ThisOldTonyAnd Wintergatan too for sure. I saw that latch mech there
@@ThisOldTonywe all knew that @InheritanceMachining is really TOT I mean have you ever seen Tony's hands in the same place as inheritance machining?
My wife heard the squeal of a young girl and knew immediately that I had woken to a ToT video release. Thank you
Hahaha
I have that same press, which also lived on the floor. I only used it a couple of times a year until I got a stand for it. Now I use it twice a year.
I borrow my neighbor's semiannually.
😂👌🏻
Wow, you've virtually QUADRUPLED its use by building a stand! Those of us "extra space handicapped" people are envious
That's a 200% improvement :)
Really, the SAME press?
That “do you know why these are called arbor presses?” joke is EXACTLY my kind of humor.
This Old Tony is now an official Arborist! You should plant the press out back in the Arbor-etum and see if you can grow some mini presses...or maybe breed it with a hydraulic press. That's where pnuematic presses come from. It's the old story of the boards & the beads 😛
It’s been done; they are called cy-press?
I would be impressed to also see some cress. But it requires a lot of spare thyme to do such a project...
Thanks This Oak Tony for the amazing video!
Thanks Dad.

That's why my secondhand arbor press doesn't have a setscrew but has the hole in the bottom!
A TOT video AND an Inheritence Machining video on the same day?? The stars must be aligned!
I think they are the same person just TOT has taken over his body!
How ever that works
Hell yeah
Im just waitin for a day they interact
There's a Matthias Wandel video as well. Next thing you know there'll be a new Clickspring Antikythera episode!
@@iWonchan It would be like meeting the person who played you in a porn parody...
And it came on a Friday, so new video at cutting edge engineering Australia (big stuff) as well
It's always a good day when ToT uploads. And a nice 30 minute video. Thank you
Can't wait for PART 2, where you mount the press to that nice yellow stand.
I thought that was going to be the big finale. Obviously he's going to squeeze a whole series out of it. Has he been taken over by Netflix?!
Wait... so it's not going to be a tensegrity press floating between the floor and ceiling?
Has to find the “right” place for it and not be in the way 363/365 days of the year.
So in about half a decade, Wintergatan will discover a revolutionary usage for arbor presses
(this joke comes from a place of love)
😂👍
Please explain...
@@them0leisback Watch the latest and next to latest Wintergatan 👍
I quit watching wintergreen when I realized he was going to finish the mmx somewhere about 3 weeks after he dies and someone else takes over the project.

"press stuff in at an angle"

Saturday morning, cappuccino and croissant for breakfast, watching TOT last video. What a great way of starting the day.
Thanks a lot Tony!

I get SO excited when I see a new This Old Tony video!!!
Dammit now I want a arbor press.
Oh my god!!!😱😱😱 this old Tony video! Made my day🎉🎉
I was just sitting down with my pizza, thinking of what to watch, and, BAM! ToT uploaded 14 seconds ago, like a dream, but reality.
12:55 I think you did your math wrong, isn't a ton 2000 pounds? so wouldn't 2 tons be 4000 pounds?
this old tony and inheritance machining videos on the same day!!!!!! im a happy man
These are the best videos on RUclips. You learn and laugh every time. My wife now understands that all guys think fart gags are funny. 😂
9:29 Lord knows there are plenty of voids that need filled in my life.
Now make a fly press from scratch 15 ton minimum
Love the jokes as always. “Why do they call it an arbor press? …”
Burnt my eyes with that welding flash.
Aren't you supposed to warn viewers before welding?
I always watch his videos wearing my welding mask - can’t be too careful 🤡
its called a 2 ton press because if you put a ton of pressure on it it splits in 2
*cough* 2 tonnes is 4400lb. *cough* *cough*
Bah. Thats like that Liter stuff
Ton has no e and engines are measured in cubic inches
