This press has worked like a charm for my projects ru-vid.comUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!

An attorney, engineer, craftsman, teacher and not an ounce of arrogance. I don't know how you do it, but thank you so much for recording it. Oh, also; the switching back and forth on different tasks isn't uncomfortable at all. It gives the story continuity and keeps it flowing without getting boring. It honestly helps the hour long format flow by in what seems to be minutes. All and all, your videos are great and they keep getting better.

@marsrover001 3 года назад

In America we have a saying "measure twice, cut once". In Russia you have "measure 7 times, cut once". The quality of this craftsmanship reflects that. Through impatience and over-use of power tools I question if I could build a water wheel that even functions. Yet you have made something that spins true using the bare minimum of tools. Absolutely incredible.

The amount of effort in making this Waterwheel exponentially surpasses an average viewer's effort in watching a video over 15 minutes long. For the amount of content, effort, and exertion used into making this, anyone that thinks this is too long hasn't fully appreciated what they just saw. This is a great vid, well worth the time watching.

@keithnielsen7175 Год назад

The detail of how you have learned to spend more (or less) effort because it is required (or not) is very useful. As an Engineer, the tendency for extreme accuracy is always there, so know when it matters or does not is very critical. Understanding the points in time that require extra attention focus on design and where "good but rough is good enough" also helps a person doing it the first time where extra care is a good investment. I enjoy the way you present the material, and using the correct description of the tools used lexicon for clamp types and such, helps those without experience to look up details on more information themselves -- this is very important to those that have less experience to help themselves! Bravo.

Everybody, who has ever tried to make a video about something he is crafting, knows how much work it is, to make a filming with intended focus, changing position, controlling the material, saving it, and still do the work you want to film. Great work. I love it all and can't get enough of it. Very good work for filming and the opus itself, genious, I might say. I'm a big fan of your projects, the hut, the waterwheel and your tool manufacturing. The place you have found seems to be far away from any other hut or humans. That can not be found in densely populated areas like Middle of Europe anymore. May this place be protected from any evil-minded creatures.

The shape of the wheel made with so many smaller pieces means that the geometry size will be more stable. It will not shrink much from drying because the shrinkage is greatest in the direction of the length of the wood grain. Since the pieces are small, their shrinkage should be negligible. It's a good design. Thank you so much for such a wonderful long video. I will watch it many times, I'm sure.

For those watching that would like to know more about the Chekhov’s Gun reference in the beginning (2:40). Chekhov was a famous Russian playwright, one of his principles regarding theatre and storytelling was not to lead the audience on to false expectations. “If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If it's not going to be fired, it shouldn't be hanging there” as Chekhov himself said. In short: tell your story with the bare essentials and do not make false promises. Of course do with this information as you please, there are many ways to tell a story. In this video he jokingly said that if we once saw a rifle on his wall, we could expect him to do with the rifle anything but using it as intended. PS: Chekhov’s own funeral was almost something out of one of his plays. Upon his death his body was transported from Badenweiler, Germany in a refrigerated railway-car that upon arriving in Moscow offended friends and colleagues when they saw that the railway-car originally was made “For the Conveyance of Oysters”. Then on the day of his funeral, thousands of mourners mistakenly followed the wrong procession, that of an army general. Chekhov called many of his plays comedies, even though they often were melancholic and bleak. I think the unfortunate events surrounding his funeral would be something he himself would find pretty funny.

There's a special kind of joy in sitting in your own handmade cabin, knowing it's being powered by your own handmade waterwheel, while you burn wood shavings that you enjoyed making.

This type of project is much better shown with its fine details, challenges, and resolutions. There are many aspects of this kind of thing that a person attempting (especially who isn't an experienced carpenter) would struggle greatly with but you have great detail. Also, your commentary on work being for fun and only while enjoyable is something to live by.

@nationsenemy 3 года назад

The kind of person who watches this entire video is one who enjoys detail. I wouldn’t edit a thing. I appreciated every minute of it. I also appreciate how you move from wood to wilderness work to mix it up - great philosophy and mechanically it’s better on your body. I appreciate your train of thought and consideration, if your projects and on your body. Bravo, sir.

You have Maxed me out in this video😃 thank you thank you thank you and please do not stop talkin the way you do in your videos, I enjoy the continuous information. Everything was all in sync and for me you are the best so far. I have been interested in waterwheels for quite some time now, thank you man good job❤

@mariusjenkins7294 2 года назад

He says he isn't an experienced woodworker, then proceeds to design and build a water wheel so well that even after two seasons, everything is still solid with the shaft just press fit inside the wheel... This guy takes being humble to a whole new level... Usually I just put on youtube while I play games on my other monitor but this was so interesting I had to stop playing so I could watch without my attention divided... This is the first video of yours I have seen but you definitely earned a sub...

@benoitbergeron8858 2 года назад

I watched this whole video in Russian without understanding a thing because I didn't know that there was an english version. I still found it profoundly fascinating and inspiring. I haven't often being glued to my screen for a video of an hour in a foreign language.

@richardcheatham9490 3 года назад

I'm hoping you are correct on that language matter. I copy and paste all the Russian messages into Google Translate to get some understanding of Russian. In this case, however, the verb in your sentence is translated to Tighten (as one would solidify a lid on a bottle or more firmly attach two boards with a screw). Maybe the best way for one to learn some Russian is to focus on nouns. Still, I get the gist of your message in spite of Google. Спасибо, и хорошо там. Ричард
