YAY! Great to see the oldest of Tony's stopped by!

I learn a ton from This Old Tony, but he spends about half of his videos teaching, not building. Considering he is an exceptional teacher and entertaining to boot, I am glad he struck that balance. That being said, your focus on showing builds, while obviously having a similar whimsical nature to your videos, is a great addition to the KZread machinist scene. Ignore any criticism about you "copying" ToT, you are obviously doing your own thing and it's great! Thanks for your time and effort, look forward to the next one!

Jim Morrissey Thank you. Everyone know that. You just cant coppy Tot.

Dear Mr.Ca'Lem's Father; I have watched and witnessed your son progress through the challenge's and necessary process by which one gains an understanding of a trade and develops his skills in that trade. Your son is an extraordinary self taught student. Not only in machining, but in documentary video and editing techniques. He has progressed through the lessons, with extreme attention to detail that far outweighs his competitors and peers. He has a special aptitude and respect for the craft he has chosen. That in itself is special and admirable for such a young man. The skills he has developed so far can not only support a family in the future. But can be used to prototype his future ideas, and make them come into existence. He has come so far in such a short period of time, I cannot wait to see him blossom further. You should be very proud of your son for hearing the passion from within. I wish him and your family a safe and prosperous year. If he was my son, I would have a grin from ear to ear watching my son's passion for what he does in life.

Today on, "This old Cà Lem." Masterful, absolutely masterful!

That was such a cool demo with the hair. You do some incredibly beautiful work, man, and your production chops are really good, too!

see you took something outa this old tonys book with the "magically" splitting metal

I make sure that bore is within .0002. I'm fired if I don't. Machinists are like satellites in human form

Hard to tell machining from art on this level

the way you tread your stuff, your machines and tools, shows that you love what you do. A joy to watch. Thank you!

At this level, it takes a collaboration with "this old Tony". It would be nice

YES... beautiful work, beautiful tool. Realy love the up close camera work telling the story how this tool was crafted. Another very enjoyable video, thank you Cà Lem.

The amount of precision in the work you do is AMAZING!!

LOVE your work dude!! One of the best machinists on KZread!!

Your videos are top notch, sir. Top notch indeed. And your machining abilities are as equally impressive. I find myself entranced by your videos now. Beautifully done.

You are WAY too good and free-handing curves/balls on the lathe. This thing turned out beautiful. When I saw the thumbnail for the video, I thought you had bought a commercial level and just restored it. Can't believe you made the whole thing! That 4-jaw setup to single point the threads was crazy too! Awesome job!

Another amazing video Sir! It is the little things that you take the time to do that make your videos worth watching. Also, your skill level with the machines is spectacular.

Very nice work dude. I am so impressed how you continue to think outside the box. That isn't something you teach. You either have a knack for it or you don't. You most certainly do. BRAVO!!

Excellent !!! Each time you use it you will be proud of it knowing beyond any doubt that the level is spot on.

Your workmanship and skills are amazing! Can't wait to see more...

@2:05 Cà Lem is like, "Oh what pretty colors" LOL When steel gets that color the temperature got around 550F (287C). Keep up the good videos my friend.

Although it can bring a really cool finish to a part if the surfaces are polished and if you bring your part at a homogeneous temperature. It also give a little rust protection.

This is one EXCELLENT piece of work Ca Lem, beautiful as TOT says. Your attention to detail is truly astounding for one who only a couple of years ago had trouble running a lathe due to inexperience. In that short time you have become a MASTER of your craft. Keep it up and the force is definitely with you! I hope you and your family are staying safe, fit and healthy, and your shop is a haven to be " Locked down " in lol

Ca Lem is one of the few who can experience true level with nothing but a bubble of air. That demonstration with the (i hope it was a) human hair was amazing.

Gorgeous work! I love the adjustment capability

Absolutely beautiful work Ca Lem! I love your use of brass and stainless. Not only functional but very pleasing to the eye. Just the way a precision instrument should be.

Lem . Lot's of percise machine work and it came out RIGHT ON LEVEL 👍😁 .

Youre videos get better and better, the more i watch. You are a great alternative to TOT videos. I like it.

Wow, GREAT fab ! Impeccable accuracy 👍👍👏👏 Luv the machinist’s vise too, beautiful !!

Beautiful design and build! You are amazing!!!

As always, outstanding. Thank you. Les in UK

Incredible again., Good for you. I am honored to even get to see these.

Fab video. I have looked for someone making their own precision level for some time and this might be the only one on here. Elegant design too. Many thanks.

Beautiful craftsmanship !

Beautiful work masterfully done.

Incredible Work. Bravo Maestro.

I've been following you for a while, and I would like to say bravo! You have come a long way realy fast! I know machinists who would love to have your skills. Greetings from Denmark

oh my god the precision is amazing. very good job, congratulations

The attention to detail is outstanding!

Great work as always, keep the shop made videos coming!

Excellent work👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing.

Very impressed, you have made some lovely things

Holy shit I've never had so much respect for a level before! Amazing work my friend!!

Excellent work! Pleasure to watch and learn.

Beautiful work Cà Lem !!!

Best video and post processing of any machinist channel!!

Beautiful work, sir. Good job.

Wow nice job, great workmanship.👍👍👍

Brilliant Always enjoy your work , Stay safe too

Great work! Keep the videos coming and stay safe.

That was just awesome! I like how you used a rule on a round bar in the vice to get the centre to drill, thanks for that! all the very best, Dave

absolutely amazing skills!

Amazing! Thanks for another great video.

Loved this video. You are a gifted machinist!

Great looking, ridiculously accurate level. Nice work 👍

What a delight to watch!

That is the best project on YT I have seen in along time.

Excellent content thanks for sharing. That's a really neat precision Level

Very well done works great and looks great!

Excellent and beautiful work.

Just beautiful work, as always.

Your channel is highly underated, great channel and excellent craftsmanship

Excellent work. Funny too!

Amazing! That came out sweet!

Every time you show a new project I am in awe. You are very inventive. Some of your designs would be very desirable to purchase if you made them for sale, even as one off customs. Between you, TOT, and ABOM, as well as a few others you have inspired me to get back into learning machining and purchase some equipment in the near future. Thanks again for sharing and looking forward to what you come up with next

Beautiful work as always :) We posted your video on our homemade tools forum yesterday, and people really appreciated it.

As always, Excellent Craftsmanship!

Absolutely amazing! You are truly an artist.

Anything he touches comes out on another level. He in a class all his own. If someone says "Man that is on a whole other level" You just say no that is Cà Lem Level.

Love it and love how he found center in the mill

Beautiful work!!

Super cool! That's the nicest waterlevel I've ever seen!

Now that young man......is just plain SHOWING OFF!!! :) It was a great video and great work as always Ca"Lem.

Fantastic video. I'm very glad I found your channel a few days ago and I will say that your video quality is very very high. Your video style reminds me of This Old Tony, who is also one of my favorites. Keep up the amazing work👍🏻👌🏼

Wonderful Ca Lem! Wonderful... !!! Greetings from Southport UK.

You are making some nice tools there my friend. Well done. That vise is sweet.

Wonderful craftsmanship!!

I have no words. EXPECTACULAR. A greeting from Spain. Marco

You my young friend have an abundance of talent. Well done

Wow. You’re an amazing machinist!!!

Superb work sir. Superb. The hair was so impressive. Earned my sub today.

That precision is fantastic. :)

Another fantastic build. Yes, it's a pity you hadn't seen the Starrett level with the rotating protective tube. I can see that as a revision. Those that haven't, do not realise how fussy adjusting those levels is. I have 3 levels of 0.02mm/m acuracies and have spent hours on each setting them. I think the level and the cylinder square are the only two self calibrating measurement tools. Next: The Cylinder Square!

Beautiful little piece

It's really great. Thanks for this.

Fantastic ! Very good job !

Fantastic work as always.

Very nice workmanship and the video was very well done, no annoying talk or music just get right to it. New subsriber!

Great work - as always.

Pure craftsmanship.

Awesome work Cal !!!

bro your 4-jaw lathe set ups are always dope....AND MAKE ME DIZZY. lol and that vise....its just so damn pretty

Beautiful work.

lost for words again ,simply amassing

incredible work!

Cà Lem, excellent work! Bravo! This Old Tony style...hahahahahaa!
