Those Clausing tools are certainly one of a kind! Mark did a great job on them. Looks like they rolled that Diamond T over which is a huge shame. That truck was beautiful.
He invented and patented an early home audiovisual system called Cinevision Talkies.
I just moved from Houston to San Antonio from a conditoned space to a metal building without heat or AC and was horrified the first time I noticed my Cincinatti mill completely soaked like that. I`ve been spraying it all down with CRC 3-36 from Home Depot and hoping that i`m getting ahead of it. Will work on either building a conditioned space or running some sort of space heater overnight.
Well, when I thought winter was over, here we go back down in the 20's over this wk end. Know you will happy to see Spring too! Sad to see that truck, Dimond T's were first class in there Days!
Hey Pete, First off, you are a lucky sob to get such wonderful gifts from your admirers. Regarding the condensation on machinery, I've resigned myself to the reality that my machinery is going to get rusty unless I keep my shop heated all the time. I'm relying on razor blades to scrap my flat surfaces and I'm using Marvels Mystry oil to wipe down everything else. Aside from that I watch the weather forcasts to see when a quick warming spell is upcoming and fire up the wood stove to try and get the machine temps above dewpoint temps.
I was the guy wearing the Iowa Battleship T-shirt at youir gathering a few years back. Thanks for the beer.
I suspect that the 80/63 gears will only give an approximately correct metric thread (because 63 is only an approximate factor of 254).
For Valentine's day this year, I bought my girlfriend the same pair of knee pads and by a strange coincidence she bought me the kneeling pads.
My machines all sweat like pigs. I have to wipe and re oil them 2-3 times a year. i put a cotton cover over my lathe this year, i will see what it does, if it helps i will make one for every machine
Just like Jimmy Stewart in A Wonderful Life, you are truly the richest man on YouTube with the friends you have made. Can't think of a better channel to watch.
I’m blown away by the damascus style lathe tools, very impressive.
Thanks for you great videos! How do I get a tubalcain tee shirt and hat?
Hi mr. Pete thanks a lot for showing my item maybe somebody will be able to identify like the video special the cartoon too bad for the red truck that's a shame love watching your videos thanks 👍. JM
I keep a 24 inch box fan and dehumidifier going 23/7 in my shop. I controls the condensation pretty well.
Hi Lyle. Thanks for the interesting phone call monday night .Sorry about stretching it out to much on unrelated topics.I will be looking forward to your video on the models in a month or so. To the topic on making a round ram M head model , who knows; I do have a vintage 1948 M head in my shop i can copy, but takes a long time, if it's from all newly made parts. Jim.
Thanks for all your videos Mr Pete, we have the same condensation problem in GA.
Very interesting material,Mrpete.Thank you.
I love your this and that videos and I especially love the vintage advertisements and old literature. Thanks Mr. Pete
You should do a video on how you made the time machine to show us the December 2023 video… Lol
North Alabama-Much condensation when weather warms after a cold spell. Concrete floors look as if they've been sprayed with a water hose.
11:51 Anyone know how to remove magic marker from machine tools without dissolving the paint?
Our local Menards have long nose markers like those but a different brand.
Much Thanks Lyle.
I so missed the 'This & That" series.

All of that condensate has got to be hard on motors, switches and bearings!
Condensation! I hate it.
We don't get the low temperatures you do but I still get the puddles of water on the mill table and lathe etc, anything that can rust will rust!
I enjoy your This & That's.
Condensation is a nasty bugger.
A gentleman below talks about moving blankets. That and any blanket to shield against the temp changes.
Oh yes! At 16.01: Teacher, you know what that is. It's a……. Sir, are you keeping it for a what's this? video?
I'll still my fingers. 🙂
Smiley had a Shopsmith in his shop, the ER10 early model. Ward Cleaver had the more modern one as well as a Dewalt radial arm saw. Showing my age.
We sweat real bad down here in the south (Texas).
I've had good luck with Fluid Film in preventing condensation rust. It's sticks to horizontal and vertical surfaces, doesn't dry out, and is easily removed with a little soap and hot water (or any solvent). Some have likened the smell of it to a barnyard (lanolin based product) but that only makes me like it that much more!
Cool video
Hi Mr. Pete, have you tried the CRC product that Adam Booth uses?
12:26 Look at the two-part adjusting screw. Look closely. Figure out how clever it is. It self-engages to screw in, but will disengage and slide open instantly. ONLY Starrett does that, I think. Do you know of a copycat?
3:09…WHO IS IT ?? Oh come on, gimme a clue. SMILEY BURNET. Did I spell it right. Never would have remember the name, but the face…it is an icon. I don't know how you do it mrpete…but please don't stop.
My Uncle Bill Mittlestaedt worked as a foremen at the Diamond T Truck Company back in the day.
I agree the light from Dollar Tree is possibly regional. I went to the one close by in my state after seeing yours and they had no clue. I am going to check again soon.
I am in SE Tennessee and I had this very same condensation issue last year. Due to the temps, I had not been in my wood shop for a couple days. In that time, I got scary surface rust on all the metal surfaces of my machines. I wiped them down best I could with rags and then sprayed WD-40 on them, as wood working machines should not be coated with grease. After a good wipe, I placed a coating of Johnson's Paste Wax on everything. It resolved my problem for the most part. Since then, when we get a quick warming of temps after the cold snaps, I go build a fire in my wood stove to really warm it up and reduce the temperature difference. That was my solution. I would hate to have this issue as much as you guys in the frozen north.
Thanks
That truck sure looked bad, what a shame. My woodworking shop went cold for a few days this week, burner problem with the suspension heater. Fortunately it remained above 50 degrees and the furnace guy was Johnny on the spot getting me back in comfort. No condensation on my metal surfaces.
I have found that if you have a fan, it keeps the air moving and doesn't allow condensation to form as badly. You might try aiming a fan or two at your equipment and see what happens.
I’m originally from the wet, wet, wet Pacific Northwest. A fella in a local tractor club lived out near the coast and he had a fabulous old Rumley Oil Pull tractor. He kept it stored in an open sided shed during the winter. I asked him one time how he kept it from getting rusty. He told me when he put it away after the show season, he would fill a garden sprayer with WD40 and hose down the entire tractor.
I'm in the middle of nowhere (for my country) in a water winning area and I have an unheated workplace. I know exactly what you talk about. I dread winter damage each year.
I have once heard from a electronics guy working in/for wet areas that he would coat all his electronics several layers or they would die within a year.
Those Clausing tools are fantastic. Marvelous craftsmanship went into those. I cried over that Diamond T truck. Those Australian cartoons are hilarious! Thanks Mr. Pete!
Good video Mr. Pete. I’m old enough to Rembrandt many of the things you speak of. Thank you.
Thanks Mr. Pete, looking forward to the Bridgeport miniatures 👍
Thank you Mr Pete. Those miniature Bridgeport mills are outstanding.
Thanks, nice video, never watched a 'this or that' before! Not much if any condensation on anything painted, and is the main reason for the Glyptal paint inside machinery like your quick change I believe, though the 'traps casting sand' must count too.
Mr. Pete, we have the same problem down in Alabama. Maybe not as bad as you have there. It rains and it's muggy here in the South and our metal tables do rust. I'be often wondered when I look at the videos, how do you keep the chucks so shinny and new looking. Enjoy, keep up the good work….
