I like the part where you used the lathe to sharpen your pencil.

at my work when our pencil sharpener broke we started joking about using the 2 ton lathe we've got to sharpen them :D

I learned about this channel from Adam Savage at Tested. Im really happy he shouted you out. I learned quite a bit just from this one video. Thank you.

You're one of the few channels that I never delay watching when I get the notification. Don't ever feel like you need to do more. The anticipation sells it. Brilliant work, as always. Thanks!

NO! DO MORE!

Thank you for yet another fantastic video showcasing your amazing talents. 👏👏👍😀

Outstanding work as always and that’s stunning mate!

Using a lathe as a pencil sharpener must be the most extreme overuse ever

I watched this with my wife nearby and exclaimed "He's using a lathe to sharpen a pencil!?". My wife, who knows almost nothing about machinery, said "that's seems extreme." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

And I am so here for it!

LOL , Love your pencil sharpening method :)

Superb video as always. I normally skip the ads but stayed around for the more detailed explanation of the Squarespace development!

Beautifully done!

The indexable chuck is brilliant. I wish I had one of those.

Outstanding work 👏👏

Fantastic! Really enjoyed.. Thanks for sharing

It"s great! Congratulations 🇧🇷

Great work. That's a knob that Spinal Tap would be proud of!👍🤘

Beautiful build! Came here from Tested and you have a new sub

Fabulous work, although I'm sure someone will point out that you should have used aluminium or bronze, because brass will affect the tone...

Love your pencil sharpener too!!

So good!

nice work

I think machining a groove at the end of the knurling to remove the chip and clean up the end would have worked well to remove the unsightly transition.

Yeah, I thought similar. I guess if you were doing the job a second time, you might even consider machining the chamfer after doing the knurling/shaping operation to avoid that unsightly transition situation altogether.

To dissolve the super glue you can soak the part in Acetone

PhD on vertebrae discs...electric guitar knob that goes up to 11...if your middle name isn't 'spinal' then there's something wrong with the world

Beautiful techniques and video! Inspirational. What’s the story behind the setup of your shop? Seems unique.

Great ❤

Now you need to make the tone knobs and the switch cap. 🙂

Sharpen the pencil with your lathe :> you funny dude you! That really made me chuckle! "Oh what is he doing now........oh god :D"

There’s an electronics company here in the States called Phenix. They’re located in Accident Maryland. We have a couple of pieces of their equipment in our shop. All the adjustment knobs go up to 11 and I haven’t been able to talk to anybody at the company who has heard of the movie. At this point I’m wondering if it was a joke with the founders and has been lost over time.

Can u please make fairchild knob? Its very iconic and cool shape

Spinal Tap would approve!!

Glad that you were able to save some money by making your own knob. Bit disappointed you didn't gold plate it.

Exemplary as always. I take it was Hazel who read the spot; she has a lovely speaking voice. 😀

Wow👌

I must say, this is unspeakably beautiful. But you really should have included the unnecessary umlauts on the o and u, to make it properly heavy metal.

Man I AM JEALOUS! 🤣👍

From now on I will sharpen my pencils in the lathe!

Yes there it is. this one goes to eleven. Yeah but this one goes to eleven. Hello Chicago,nope basement, hello Chicago , nope outside that's classic. Killer movie. Love spinal tap. Been saying that a lot lately this one goes to eleven. Nobody really knows anymore or at all. It's a shame. Anyway if that's what ur meaning I subbed up over it. Great video to. And mill video I liked it's lot. From ur ole hillbilly buddy stay safe.

That is the ONLY way to sharpen a pencil!!! Magic

Very nice? May I ask - since the base material was reasonably soft, why not use a compression knurler?

I've been trying to resin 3D print a custom guitar knob, but i can never get the colors correct. The knob isn't white enough, and whenever i paint the embossed text, i end up messaging up the knob... I wish i could commission someone smart like you for this knob...

3:31 What is the globule on the metal?

The engineering stuff i usually watch is on a much larger scale, thus my question: do think your work is harder because its on a smaller scale?

What mill is this - seems like a bit of a funny arrangement but neat!

What a great way to sharpen a pencil.

Huh, there I thought you'd go for a rotary broach.

Why not just make the 10 louder?

But why don't you simply use a louder amp? 😉

Please stabilize the camera a bit, the shaking is making me nauseated
