Back again 6 years later, you were one of the first KZread videos I ever watched and my first subscription. I could watch this and listen to you all day. I’ve learned a lot, bought several old machines, although not as old as yours they are from the 40s and 50s, rebuilt them and they’re in service now because of watching your content.

As a kid and young man working on my uncles' farms, I had the opportunity to work in similar shops, even into the 1980s and 1990s. (This was in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, a heartland of throw-back tech in a lot of ways. My favorite was a 40-inch sawmill run by leather belts from the line shaft.) What an awesome video, especially for your first. What an amazing shop, and I love the fact that you have collected and maintained such a collection of working history. Well done.

Okemos Tech - very neat I’m up in the UP. There is certainly some interesting old stuff still around.

This reminds me of my uncle Frank's shop. He set it up with his expeditionary money in 1919. I worked with him in 1979 to restore his Cincinatti Toolmaker's workcell #1. His shop had water wheel power in the spring , summer, and fall. In the winter, the pond froze up, and he switched to boiler or we burned the boiler when he had blacksmithing to do using his steam hammer. His shop went thru three incarnations, and he electrified his next shop next door, for Willy's Overland Corp work (he made forging dies for the crankshaft and connecting rods). His third shop was had an NC broach grinder made by his shop. Miss them dearly.

This is real first class There are not many you tube vids I watch twice This one was watched 3 times John

Very cool video. My machinist apprenticeship required me to use some really old equipment similar to this. Much of it was originally steam driven but later converted to hydraulic. Those old herdy gerdy machines just kept on going. I finally retired after 50 years of manual machine work. Loved most every minute of it.

Takes me back to my childhood when we visited a family farm and they were using an old John Deere single lung thrashing oats. I also remember watching an old steam tractor doing the same, but not sure where we were. Somewhere in Iowa for sure. Thanks for the video and you did great. Yep, I'm really that old! 77!

Hello Dave, I am a home shop fiddler in the UK with an Emco lathe with integral milling machine. I have been watch your more recent videos but I have now decided to go back to the beginning, just watched No 1 2015.

I want even more knowledge of these machines now! And, I hope that you make many more videos concerning old time machinery. I, myself have a multitude of general tools that I use to work on my personal vehicles, as I am a retired mechanic, and find some of the tooling to be superior to the modern stuff, although they can be bulky!LOL! I'm very old school, and I for one appreciate your first, and (hopefully, not the last) attempt at making videos! Most immaculate shop I have ever seen! Other than how I used to keep my shops! LOL!

Thank you for sharing this with us. For me it was a trip down memory lane. About 1962, I remember going over to the Alaska Packers shop in Blaine Wa. with Dad. The machine shop was still run with line shafts at that time. I remember watching the shafts spin and hearing the click of the belt joiners on the shives, the things you remember at 6 years old. The engine was just inside the door next to the boiler house that was about 10-12 feet to the east of the machine shop wall. Sadly that's all gone now, there was not much left by the end of the 80's along with it much of the NW fishing history. The wood shop was also steam powered at that time with line shafts. The steam lines were run over head to it as I remember. Late in the 60s early 70s they changed everything over to electric motor when they stopped doing canning at the plant. The retorts for cooking the canned salmon were about 35 feet long and 6 feet across, they had 6 or 7 of them. Funny the old memories this video brought back to me.
