    Major underrated video, that's some serious work man! RUclips could use a lot more videos like this. I'm biased but these are the type of projects the home machine shop are meant for, extremely challenging but equally rewarding. Excellent work!

    27 year experienced Journeyman Toolmaker here. I am glad to see you doing very well with your Grizzly machines. I'm retiring hopefully this year and I am looking for an all-in-one machine and was considering Grizzly. I don't have the capacity for full sized machines, but I don't want to be without the convenience of being able to make my own stuff, especially things of my own design or redesign, and things that don't exist anymore.
    Your slide looks great. I just got my first 1911 last November. I just stumbled across this video and I am glad I did. I'll be checking out more of your videos too. This is a fantastic project.

    That’s really impressive. When that slide cycles, there are a bunch of parts that have to move past each other and there is so much that can go wrong. It definitely takes skill to make a functioning 1911 slide. Nice job!👍

    Excellent video. I do a lot of 1911 work in my retirement years. I have a ACRA Mill (Bridgeport copy) and a Gunsmith Lathe. I have often wondered what it would take to make a 1911 completely from scratch. You have answered that question. You are a much higher skilled machinist than I and I thank you for sharing your talents. Keep the videos coming.

    Хорошая работа! Из всей работы на мой взгляд самое сложное было прорезать пазы для замка ствола,при такой большой длине инструмент теряет жесткость но у вас все получилось хоть на видео нет как был сделан замок все отлично работает! P.s такие сложные вещи делают для души что бы знать что я это могу.

    Great video. You are an extremely talented machinist 👍. I seen a history channel special once where these guys in the Philippines i think were making 1911's totally by hand to sell as ghost guns in the USA. They were even hand fabricating the frames.. totally by hand and they came out really nice. Thanks again Sir.

  • @blueduck9409
    @blueduck9409 10 месяцев назад +1

    For a field / carry gun, you dont want super tight tollerances. Any speck of dust, sand, or a rain droo even will cause failure to fire. If youre making the slide for competition, then tight tollerance is fine. Good job, i liked the video.

    • @JamesChurchill3
      @JamesChurchill3 9 месяцев назад

      Depends on the intent of the design, the plans may target larger gaps between the slide and frame but the maker may be keeping within tight tolerances to the sizes given.

Two, make detailed list of the process, tools, etc., to make the best use of your time. Three, man, you can buy these already made, they're quite inexpensive. Just need to fit them. I've already got three years of projects that I can't buy.
