    I can see this channel is going to explode with wanna-be/hobby machinists like myself. Thanks for sharing this great content. Looking forward to more.

    The little metal chips are giving me anxiety. Thank God for protective eyewear 😅🙌🏽

    Okay to an uninitiated person like me, this step beginning at 0:56 and the subsequent result after the 1st cut looks like alchemy. I've just never seen it done until now I guess, but it's still amazing.
