Huge thanks to your employer for letting you document jobs! Seriously. It is fantastic to watch a professional machinist at work. It must be good for the company to show off your skills too. Thanks Adam.

I could be wrong, but I believe it’s his company.

I’ll bet there isn’t a robot in the world That could do that job you’re the man good work

love it. something very satisfying about watching broken things get fixed.

I saw you with that drill in there and said no, no he is not going to drill it , & then you said end mill, so I breathed a sigh of relief!

True craftsmanship is a rare commodity in todays world. Congrats on a job well done!.

My dad was a Tool and Die maker; I could watch this stuff all day long. The set-up is where the job is made or broken.

Geeat job Adam. The world needs great American manufacturing again. Thumbs up.

I find the alignment to be the best parts of the video, the fine details make all the difference and I'm glad you put the effort in to show it all.

Loosen your Highs, tighten your Lows. A better T-shirt logo has never been said

You are the master of the dial micrometer. You are willing to take the time to get it right.

D. U. N. Done! Great series on this fix. Really enjoyed it!

Thanks for sharing Adam. Very interesting.

Really great work, Adam! Thanks for sharing. Have a good one! Dave

That was a great repair Adam, thanks for sharing

Nice job Adam very interesting to watch the full process of the repair :)

Great job Adam -- good to watch.

Another awesome repair series done! Thanks Adam!

Hi Adam Another Brilliant Video, Good Job on the Repair

Well done man! Thanks for taking the time to put all these great videos together.

Hey Adam, a repair like that is a thing of great beauty to me, very nice repair, not to mention the relief of the customer when they can stop sweating. You don't realize it until someone quotes an eight month delivery on a replacement part, or you have to ship from the other side of the world!

+howder1951 Pretty much there only option other than replacing the entire cooling unit.

Adam,the level of patience you displayed was nothing short of phenomenal. The just are not that many people who would be willing to shrug off the consumption of insert and two end mills to finish the project. Well done.

Man, I would have loved to see some lathe work on the other side of the flange. Nothing more satisfying than a rough piece getting smooth and shiny!

Thanks Adam, Have been eagerly anticipating part II, As per usual a very good job. Many thanks for all your efforts

Nice work Adam, thanks for sharing, I really enjoy vids like this, great stuff

Great wrap-up to the repair job, Adam. I'm glad you get a chance to shoot video like that at work. Hope all is well! Tom Z

Adam, Another wonderful video. Many thanks.

sitting here with a mouth full of sutures from dental surgery this morning. watching a pro like you soothes my pain. thanks for the respite good buddy.

Great repair on the casting Adam. Thanks for showing off your skills. Jeff

It is a real pleasure to come and see this get finished.

Just beautiful! Absolutely riveting! Best regards from Montreal!

Could watch this all day. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Spot on !

Great job Adam!

Hi Adam, Really appreciate all your videos. The Videos about your history, grand-dad and dad were very special, and I think it's great that you are finishing off all your subsequent videos with the photo of the three generations together. God bless you

I love watching the machining of parts. It is very relaxing.

That was pretty amazing! Never seen a repair like that before.

love the brazing lol gonna try and upload a a pic of my brazing hahaha! love the channel and your friendly and informative style and that you take us into your home and family, Brits rarely do this peace, Dave Norfolk UK

Beautiful job. Thanks so much for sharing.

very involved repair, great job Abom

Adam, I know it's been a while since you did this - but I especially enjoy these multi-tactic repairs. The world doesn't fit into a neat and pretty package and neither do jobs like this - but it was well thought out, clean and functional. And you had the "sticktuitness" to see it done. Nice job!

Cool. I love the sound of that lathe.

I enjoyed all of the indication work on this video, it was very interesting and educational...and also makes me want to get my little armature working for my Federal back plunge indicator set that +ILGopher gave to me. Back when I was just getting started...I think it may work like that? I'll have to play around with it. Thanks again for another great weekend's SNS...Aloha, Chuck

That ceramic insert, with no back rake, worked really well on both the cast iron and the braze. It makes sense, but I never really thought about how much alike those two materials are (in terms of tool requirements).

Nicely done Adam!

That is some great skill! Thank you for sharing that with us!

really like your videos I'm picking things back up from you I had forgotten. thanks for these videos.

Great job, Adam!

Thanks for making the videos buddy, I have learned a ton from watching them. Keep up the good work see you next time.

You are a Maestro Adam...beautiful craftsmanship...not many can do this work today...thank you for making this video!

Such a professional. Adam love your channel.

Im on the other end of all this work now, doing machine vision inspection on parts that are machined, but man, i wish I had youtube when i was younger to find out how cool all the machining is, so much engineering and science. Love watching your work man, fantastic!

Like Phoenix rising out of the ashes! Beautiful work Adam!

Adam it's always a pleasure watching you work your so passionate about getting it as close to perfect as humanly possible. Great stuff. Regards Rudy.UK.

Good job Adam, I am sure the customer was pleased.

Great job, thanks for the look over your shoulder.

Great job, great project! Thanks for sharing!

Quality workmanship. It’s a pleasure watching you work your skills.

@18:20 you hear the tool hitting the 4 holes and it sounds just like the puttering of a Model T. Very nice video and filming. Thanks!

You are indeed an artist and it is a pleasure to watch you work. Well done.

Great video, as usual. I'm constantly amazed with your skill of knowing just where to tighten/adjust/hit with the hammer to minimize the runout, man. Must be years and years of practice to get it down so quickly

Good Job, enjoyed the show. The only thing on these jobs is I wish we could see them installed and working, as I think it completes the full circle from bad to good. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes n Blessings. Keith Noneya

Master craftsman. Top quality job 👍

Awesome work Adam!!!! You mak it more fun to watch then to actually do th work. You make it look so simple.

Thank You Adam. It's chucked up now.

That chuck key looks sooo nice to use. I keep putting off making a bender but i reaaaally want a key chuck like that one. Awesome episode, watching someone who actually knows what they are doing and not going by common sense and/or trial and error is a really nice treat.

You're good with that lathe. My shop teacher would have loved this...

thanks again adam, very interesting

Really liked seeing the process of setting up the casting in the lathe (I'm not at all mechanical). But watching the gauge, adjusting the chuck, etc... pretty neat. Most people skip that kind of set-up in a video. Glad you did not skip it. Thanks

Excellent, clean & professional. Hats off to you Adam... :-)

Hi Adam, another great video and as mentioned earlier, hats off to your employer for allowing your work and experience to be shared with us, much appreciated. As much as I enjoyed the repair I also enjoyed the dialling up of the job in the 4 jaw. I am a newbie to milling/turning but I know in my industry we have a number of adages to help us remember stuff and I can remember working with an American engineer once and she used the adage "Righty tighty, lefty loosey". I chuckled at the time but working on some machinery in weird, disorientating positions sometimes I here myself repeating it. You mentioned one "loosen highs, tighten lows" which I made a note off as I know it will be a help next time I am dialling in a job. Like I said I am a newbie and youtube is my learming tool so if you have anymore I would appreciate them. Many thanks again, Gordon

Very ambitious repair. Castings are such a pain. Your planning was very good, the cross trade execution was really impressive

.050" run out from one face to the other.......no wonder the damn thing cracked. Superb repair on your part Adam!

Adam you inspire me every video, just wish you weren't 4000 miles away... from Olympia, WA...

Hi Adam, i started to Watch your videos and I found them very interesting and very educative for anyone who is looking for machining career. I had my machinist diploma many years ago but could not find a decent machine shop to make a well living of it (previous small town). I can say that your videos could serve as business cases for machinist trainings. Continue your good job and thanks for sharing your precious knowledges.

Nice Work. Your presentation skills are great and you covered everything in detail. Thanks to you and your shop for pulling this together. Paint it bright red.

Great videos I’ve been watching all night.

Your video inspired me. I AM a time served centre lathe turner working mostly on MInistry of Defence in England, well retired now. I have a "toy" lathe at home to do rotors, thread adapters etc> I have had it 50 years and broke the topslide(cast iron). So after your video I will braze it and also use a 3/8 inch plate to bolt it to. Thanks for a good video. Ernie

Great video!

you might now see this adam. I just want to tell you thank you for teaching us your trade and what your father and grand father had taught you. im hoping to have my shop built in the back yard and my first purchase after getting her set up will be a lathe. and thank you adam you are a master in your trade

Nice to look at when a top professional is working.

Interesting variety of jobs you get to work on at work. Nice repair.

I enjoyed watching you be precise with your work I am sure that flange will last.

Very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing this.

I couldn't wait to see part 2 thanks man

You make indicating on a 4-Jaw look so damnably easy, dagnabbit!

Awesome as always!!

Great as usual Adam. Would love to see it installed. Peace

I really enjoy watching your craftsmanship, and demonstrations. I recently became aware of an Australian machinist who I'd bet you were already aware of, Cutting Edge Engineering Australia. CEE. A bit late in life for me, but I think I'd enjoy being a machinist. Peace.

Adam- I think you need an Abom tshirt that says "loosen your highs and tighten your lows" .. definitely a signature of your channel!

amazing work
