Sitting here doing nothing, watching Tim Hunkin doing things

[misterroy]

Tim Hunkin has made a new video about Chains and Belts and how he has used them. The machines he has made are fantastic, they get wee brief shots.

Shame Rex Garrod isn't still around ...

Brilliant! Many thanks for the heads up.

[John Nomen]

Fascinating. Thank you (and him!).

It happens that misterroy formulated :

Thanks for that, I enjoyed it. He is looking quite old now.

[Adrian Caspersz]

His upcoming vids,

THE SECRET LIFE OF COMPONENTS

Youtube Channel Subscribed (How did I not?)

Kinda sad to see in some respects. His fluency of speech is definitely down compared to days of old but then again, I?m sure mine is too. I don?t have old videos to compare myself with though.

A bit surprised to see him welding without gloves at one point and the way that his chain riveting technique left him with tight links. A proper chain tool lets you push a rivet with the back plate supported or unsupported so that you can make fine adjustments.

That might just be a reflection on not having a full production crew available to do script editing, multiple takes, and lots of slick editing.

at least he had a mask :-)

He's 70 and looks and sounds nearer eighty.
