Is anybody else aware of this video series. Extremely, and I do mean extremely talented and impressive machine work

Cool video, haven't watched the rest, but they are on the list!

Thanks for Posting!


P.S. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one that uses magic marker on the vice and compound!

Made me tired watching. Machining is so amazing but so tedious. Machining a gun one at a time is an exercise of how a gun that you can buy for $500 can be built for $10,000.

He noted that he erased half of the 1st video by accident and it was still 14 minutes long. The others were a little shorter but the whole gun took what, 3 or 4 videos?

A build video for the public should be about 6 minutes long from start to finish. Just my opinion.

Its a woman building it if you had not yet noticed. Impressed by her skill

I sometimes miss the act of making things with steel, but at about 3 minute mark I started to remember all the hours I spent in front of a lathe or mill & I too got tired. Realized I don't miss it at all.

It's different if you're doing a cool project of your own as opposed to cranking out identical production parts as piecework.

You're precisely right!

I get more reward making my own clever improvements on production guns.

Very impressive stuff. I will watch every minute of every video, there is a lot to learn.
