Mr Pete meet and Greet, Pierre and Phil tour the shop, and Jimmy Diresta hang out

Lots to cover in this one. Saturday I drove up to Illinois to meet Lyle peterson aka Mr Pete the you tube shop teacher. I also met tons of fans as well as fellow creators:
then did a shop tour at my place with Pierre and Phil and finally
went to an open house at maker13 in Jeffersonville Indiana
and hung out with

Huge thanks to all the fans I met and took time to say hi! I love meeting everybody and especially getting to see Mr.. Pete in his natural environment and surrounded by all his great family.

PS Extra huge thanks to Dave Kelly for thinking of me to give the angle plates a good home. I love and appreciate them very much!

Nice meeting you Brian, sure was busy at the Meet & Greet. Wish we had more time to talk. I enjoyed meeting Jimmy this summer and teaching hime to read a Vernier scale.

Brian--Thanks for coming with your girlfriend. I sure enjoy talking to you, you're a mighty smart fellow who must work 18 hrs aday. Quite a feat getting that iron into a Nissan.. Wish we had more time together, but it was a great day. Stay in touch. Pierre & Phil are alot of fun.

That "Meet and Greet" was awesome, being able to meet mrpete, the other Friends=Creators, the numerous viewers, even being able to visit your Famous Barn turned into a machine shop, to hang around with you and even being able to meet Jimmy Deresta, this is what we can call a full program... ;)
Philippe and I Really enjoyed the whole adventure...!!!

It was great to meet you in person at Mr. Pete's! Days like that remind me that I need to get out of the shop more often.

Great video Brian 👍. Love those angle plates, what a great gift . Bet that Nissan didn't like you very much . I wouldn't have left them either. One way or the other they are comming home☺.

That's awesome that the French Canadians got down to visit with you. They too are some cool cats.

Great video - that jack is awesome.

Pierre and Phil are great folks. Real gentlemen.

Great content Brian! I enjoyed this video very much, it seems you have found a very nice niche with the heavy machine shop content that is hitting it off well with every one in the machinist video community, well done! cheers!
