Video this week was very informational. I’m sure that everyone has their own way of setting up their shop’s and the tools gunsmiths think they will utilize. Iraqveteran8888 definitely had tools he liked to utilize the most, also I like how he utilized them to show everyone what some ways gunsmiths can utilize the tools.
I do have a vise grip but I do not have one that rotates two ways, so I will most likely want to pick a new vise grip up. When Iraqveteran8888 talked describes the brownells magna tip – super set he also explains why it is good to have the super set “You want the blade of the driver to fill the head of the screw up completely to take up all the space”. It makes sense but at the same time I’m sure if I don’t have one I would still use what I have to make sure the job gets done. Stripping a head of a screw is a pain in the butt and adds hours to a job that could have been completed in minutes. …show more content…
For example dremels are so diverse in jobs that this weekend I had a tree get struck by lightning so I had to cut it up and move it to the fire pit (which is good fire wood). While I was cutting the trunk of the dog wood tree my blade got stuck and jacked up my chain. So, I had to utilize my dremel to reshape the tang on multiple drive links. With gunsmithing metal can get misshaped and need a little work so sanders and grinders will be vital. I have never used a digital caliper but, I have used a micrometer for uniforms. Now, with that being said I am not completely sure one what is the differences between both. I’m sure that it’s imperative to be able to measure exact measurements when doing any handy job, with guns it could mean life and death. In closing I felt the video was more about tools and uses then actually setting up a shop and where to put your tools. Nonetheless the video was informational and eye
