    Btw, This Old Tony While rewatching this video about 329th time I thought I'll share one piece of advice with you When you try to polish just about anything, I suggest you trying to use 3M's P3000 Trizact for final/just before final step It's a spongy sandpaper used for wet sanding. The finish is just lovely. I saw it in form of 150mm diameter discs for sanders and I'm not sure if there is any other, maybe different diameters, but anyway it's still good for manual work. I heard about "higher" grits ("higher" like P6000) and never used it though, but I assume finish would be even better. Although I highly recommend against P1000, bad experiences with those.

    @this old tony Hi there. I'm Italian, so this qualifies me to criticize your otherwise beautiful work. I had to watch all of your videos to find an hint of imprecision, so I hope you'll appreciate. MR Bialetti has been a precise man and like every Italian engineer had passion for design and simmetry. So he designed the pressure relief valve placement to mark the correct torque for the gasket. He designed the Moka to have the valve and the spelt to be in a vertical line when torqued correctly. In effect despite that attention, even in Italy every day we abuse a lot of poor gaskets.

    I love it when Tony says the start of a sentence and then says it again but with an ending. It's a wonderful way of explaining something while subtlety making a point about having given that explanation with perfect timing, but while also drawing attention away from the fact that all of that timing of the video was laid out right from the start. But that's just me.

    Excellent job Old Tony. Not just a 'how to use tools to build more tools' project (which I love by the way), but a real contribution to life outside the workshop. Well my guess is it'll be used outside the shop, but maybe it's purpose is just not to have to leave the shop for a coffee. Well done, amazingly good filmed, humorous voice over. Can't stop watching, although I should do other things right now….

    being a plumer, i can confirm this due to own experience... water needs a heck of a lot of energy to vaporize. that combined with the ability to penetrate way deeper into human skin makes a vapor scalding way worse (and more painful for that matter) than a water scalding.
