    It's infuriating to me the way YouTube seemingly punishes quality sometimes. I truly believe that your channel is important far beyond the context of YouTube. If my situation weren't what it is I would be supporting you as well as many other people who independently produce things like this, and other educational content. Thank you for being relentless in your mission. I appreciate you.

    The value is in the Eyes of the Welders and Engineers . One mans Scrap is another man next Project
  • @WatchWesWork
    This is great! It's tricky to get people excited about CNC. Who knows why. It's always hard to walk the line between technical and entertaining. I wouldn't worry too much about piercing with your plasma. I can usually get 500 pierces on a nozzle, and have gone well over 1000. It works out to something like $.06 per pierce.
  • @drCox12
    Alter Schwede. Ich kann nur ansatzweise abschätzen, wie viel Arbeit (viele Jahre an Recherche, Lernen, Experimentieren, Umsetzung, gelegentliches Scheitern, Umdenken...) da drin steckt. Meinen aller größten Respekt dafür!
  • @sokoloft3
    Hope the surgery goes well and a speedy recovery. As always thanks for the videos!
  • @Jimmy___
    The big CNC table is a scrapyard masterpiece, so inspiring. Don't let the poor performance of the plasma table video get you down. These new tools will pay dividends both in what they allow you to do, as well as future well-performing videos that would not have been possible without the new CNC tables. Hope the surgery goes smoothly, and you are back in action shortly thereafter.
  • @hippie-io7225
    Amazing utilization of "junk" resources. You take adding value to another level!!
  • @partymanau
    Dont be disheartened mate, ur a fking genius. Just rem when u r ahead of ur time ur often the only one there. Breathing new life into machines that have been discarded, LEGEND!
  • @CajunGreenMan
    I don't think many people would have the guts to try something like this, and you did AND succeeded. Keep up the great work!
  • @jorismk1
    As a Mk1 Golf owner and hobby mechanic I was like, eh those gears look familiar 😂 Neat idea! Indeed they spin well on the lathe, had to make one narrower someday.
  • @dadawoodslife
    I won't say genius because that is hyperbole. But your wide range of knowledge and skills and the ability to see things as part of a bigger picture is a skill set that seems to very much lacking today. The world works be a much better place if there were more people like you
  • @neilmorten6416
    Thank you for sharing another amazing project with us. I pray that all goes well with your surgery, and that you'll be back to normal speed very soon.Take all the time you need to recover, we'll be waiting patiently for you.
  • @cavu826
    Haven't watched the video yet; decided to comment first! Already know this is a prime example of creating extreme value from essentially NOTHING. Great work Gerolf! UPDATE: Watched the video, assumptions confirmed! Impressed by dedication to using parts on hand with an eye toward service and portability...bravo!
  • @jp040759
    While watching I just kept shaking my head at how much work you were doing. WOW. What a sense of accomplishment this must have been when you finished. Building your own hi tech tool that you actually will get tones of use out of. Incredible sir!!! I tip my hat to you. Not to mention the years of planning and gathering parts. Good luck with your medical work and recovery.
  • @avid19
    Im 15 years old and I admire your work. Without a doubt, you are the best DIY channel. Learned lots of new things from your videos. Good luck with the surgery!
  • @stevematthey6676
    The power plant shown in the intro was of particular interest to me. I spent the last decade of my career retrofitting old plants (not quite as old as shown) with new switchgear and control systems. Praying for a speedy recovery my friend.
  • @Evilslayer73
    Very nice build !!you need to add a cooling pump nozzle to the head of the router with that in place your router bits gonna last longer and a vacuum nozzle when you cutt trough woods!:)
  • your last vidoe was one of my favorite! im still kind of shocked that you built a functional cnc! youre an amazing person, i pray your recovery from surgery goes well, and fast!
