Hi Tom , I think it sounds like a good idea too, the more info out there the better I say. I take my hat off to you for doing it to.
I think people who have worked in the machine shop trade sometimes forget how massive a subject it is for someone who just wants to make things but who has never been involved in the trade.
Things that seem simple or are just took for granted to a machinist are all new and at best unsure for some people learning in their own shop with used equipment.
I think videos like yours and Johns do an exellent job of showing how to do things and also what is not safe to do. Compared to books seeing it done can let you get a feel for what sounds and looks right.
Keep up the good work Tom and I wish you all the best of luck getting your site up and running.
Cheers Mick.
