    Yeah, that slope might be as high as 1/12, you made the right call. Better safe than sorry! 👍😂😂 No cameras were harmed during the filming of the chicken coop!\ Thanks for another great video. Gotta love WHF.
  • @st3v3n60
    Definitely made the right call staying off that dangerously sloped roof
  • @rexmyers991
    Came for the casting - stayed for the anecdotes.LOVE your stories.

    Maybe put someone in the Chicken coup. But you will have to make sure there is also A/C in there. But that roof is way to dangerous, especially for chickens. Oh nice job on the bearing shells.
  • @tobhomott
    Lineshaft! Ok that's gonna be super cool. Parts look good, keep it up Clarke
  • come for the foundry work, stay for the stories! Love your videos
  • Great Job from the master. Thank You for sharing this awesome video with us. You “killed” it with, 0:33 “…the slope is just too big, way to dangerous!” Bwa ha ha ha ha ha.

    Hey Clarke those bearing came out looking really nice. Thanks for sharing.
  • Mr. Clarke, I really enjoy your videos. Will you do a shop tour video and go over your setup? Things you would do differently. Why you do things a certain way. What furnace you would recommend (electric/waste oil/propane).I'm doing research now to build my own foundry. I learn something new on every video I watch of yours. Those mosquitoes love to come in prior to any rain storm. I live near the Saline River in Arkansas and work near the Mississippi River. Totally different mosquitoes in both places. On your chicken coop, we have to put wire over the top to keep owls and hawks out. Raccoons, opossums and squirrels will climb the fence and either get birds or the eggs.
  • Always a pleasure to watch someone good at their craft, watch in you reminds me of when I was toolmaking and we had our own in house foundry, the guy there, John was a very knowledgeable and talented foundryman. Whenever possible I would scrounge a few minutes and watch him work and ask questions, now I watch you work and try to work out what you are going to do before you do it! I know that there are things that John would have done differently, I also know there’s more than one way to do almost every job, sometimes the different methods you use seem odd, sometimes they make so much sense. I love the little stories, fancy not sharing the tea cakes! 😳 Anyway, enough rambling, and thanks for showing us your work and for putting in the time and effort necessary for that to happen. Yet another interesting video.
  • I am so relieved that you thought ahead and did not climb up on that sloped roof. Lately we have all become aware of just how dangerous it would be to set foot on such a roof. WAIT, I have been in the construction business in one for or another for over 50 years and I never considered a sloped roof as dangerous. WHEW what a relief that I now know about it.

    I'm going to send you a bill for the split I now have in my side after laughing so hard about you chicken coup roof being to steep. I'm still laughing at that. Anyway, I always learn when I watch you do this work. Thanks Clark.

    Way too sloped, you made the right call 😂😂😂
  • you need to have guard rails on that roof and a big sign/notice, "dangerous slope access at own risk"
  • Southwest Arizona beats New Mexico for heat with Gila Bend holding records for summertime temps. I lived in Casa Grande for a year and 115 degree temps were the norm.
