SNS 370: Several Small Machining Jobs

This week's Saturday Night Special includes a few small machining jobs that I worked on over a couple weeks. These quick jobs make up fun content to share in an SNS episode.

One of the best SNS episodes I've watched in a long time

Hand grinding that drill bit brings back memories...multi-person machine shop where no one gave a crap about leaving common tools in good shape. I worked in one of those. Get a bit, the thing is burned or bent, Wanna grind it? The stone is just a wobbly mess. The setup time when working with careless colleagues is crazy. It must be nice to be in control.

A good old fashioned SNS, thanks Adam

1:30 Best part of the day. Walking in. Flipping that switch. This is all mine. I am my own boss. Look at all my toys!

Good on the young gentleman who wants to learn about mechanical things. Once he's got the equipment, keyway cutting is a great beginner project.

This is why I originally subscribed. More please.

It was good to see the K&T in action again. Thanks

[CraigLYoung]

I'm glad to see you doing the "Little Jobs." I know from experience it's hard to get job shops to take them on, but it helps a lot of people who need these jobs done.

So much more interesting than CNC. Been missing the good old days. Thanks.

[CurtisGurley]

Many of us have watched since day one and have enjoyed watching this channel grow, I am so very happy to see the new shop taking place. I'm certain your Dad and Grandad would be proud. Its amazing what we can achieve with the right people in our lives.

The perfect thing for my evening, an SNS video to chill and relax to!

[Histandard]

At least for this video the "Old Adam" is back doing things that made him my go to channel for years. Glad to see some real machine work for a change.

[Rickster]

Thats the kind of videos that got me to subscribe years ago. For some reason the manual machine work is cathartic to watch especially on SNS. Yours is probably my favorite utube to watch.

Its the little things I see a good machinist do that seem so obvious after I see them do it but I doubt I ever would have thought of on my own that really fascinate me. Shearing the burrs off those brass washers in a vise for instance, so simple and affective but nothing I had ever seen before and it probably never would have occurred to me to do. I know thats something I wiil remember and use a lot in the future. Thanks Adam! As a 57 year old budding home machinist and fabricator these videos are gold to me.

Pig mat under the coffee machine - that is a real engineering shop!

@46:50 "When you're wearing a Huntsman you're wearing the finest"👍
The best are equipt with the steel hinge positioning plates,
later plastic ones are throw away items as weld grit eats them.

[WillACP]

Good man for taking on these little jobs, a shop willing to do so is essential for folks and a big part of the local community

[stevebumstead]

That drill you ground cuts beautifully on both cutting edges. Nice.

[MaestroPrep]

To see your shop go from empty shell to what it has become today... has truly been amazing! LOVE the POV intro Adam!! It was awesome!

If I went back 46 years to when I was 18 yrs old I cannot imagine a better person to be apprenticed to. It is a pleasure to watch a master craftman at work. I never did enter engineering but instead became an Analytical Chemist and subsequently a Project, Programme and Portfolio Manager. A shame really as the last ten years of my YouTubing viewing has all been about engineering or being a mechanic with very little chemistry.

I doff my hat to you Sir :)
