Meh...I build those all the time with my Harbor Freight corded hand drill and angle grinder! It takes a weekend. :D

Seriously...WOW! That was really cool! :eek:

I could have watched that for 1000 hours.
Thanks for posting it.

Wow! Pretty sure something like that is not in my budget....ever!

Anyone whats happening to the pieces he puts in he box of shavings when they change color?

He does a extremely good job explaining the processes in his individual vids.

Good Lord.

Who has that sort of time?

Amazing craftsman.

Excellent stuff. I envy anyone who has the time to do stuff like this.

Here's one of his smaller projects. "Clickspring: Milling a Fire Piston"

Incredible!

Astounding. Amazing attention to detail there.

Every gear, even the spring and key to wind it made by hand. Unbelievable dedication.

What sort of money would something like this cost?

1k hrs X 120 shop rate .. ( math is hard ) LOL

I believe that the craftsman in question answers that in one of the vids info sections ....A ME professor

It is very cool that he is using 19thC methodologies. ( lots of sawing and filing )

A thousand hours using CAD and machines: Now I'm even more impressed by the craftsmen of the olden days than I used to be.

Wow. Just wow....

Wow! Amazing. Thanks for posting the video of the bluing. I can see what I'll be doing over the Christmas holidays. Watching the rest of his videos. This may actually be better than watching the project Binky videos.

"Every now and then, there's a need to form a precise square hole, and often the quickest and easiest solution is to simply use needle files"

^ Right. That's how I always do it. :eek:

OK, I'm pretty sure, with all of the fancy equipment his videos and some guidance, I could make my own screw.

But what I shudder to think about is the act of making several identical screws.
