  • Yes--I used to paint everything rustoleum navy gray when I was young. Good idea on the oiler, and I need to replace the ball oiler on top of the brass crossfeed nut.

  • The story about the hex / allen set was great. I don't know what's come over pete these last few videos. First he's got cocaine on the brain, then the EPA.... it's all that brake cleaner!

    Search for a video titled "Scraping in a lathe's top slide (with tapered gib)". The guy has 38 videos so far, but they're all related to casting and machinery. He shows the scraping process for ways. I first learnt about the idea from Gingery's book 'Build a metal lathe', I'm sure some of you have that book!

    

  • I had a chance to meet the inventor of the Bondhus wrenches up here in Minneapolis, he never patented the design and still made money on the product.

  • Have you ever used a polishing/lapping compound to "wear-in" a dovetail to take out the tight spots? I've done it on a few dovetails, seems they bind toward the outboard travel where one does not use them very often or where they get nicked up. I've also had to lap in some taper attachments in areas where they don't get worn-in by use. After lapping, I clean the parts up thoroughly. I use valve lapping compound, fine grade, oil base, available at any auto parts store.

  • i'm a noobie i like watching ya vids pete

  • you have the most annoying voice ever! i muted it at 00:04

  • I love the Boundhous brand. The BLX12 set is nice.
