First Q&A (question and answer) video. Today's video looks at gear trains (basic principles), turning small (tiny) diameters (look at the brass part on the thumbnail picture) and thread pitch calculations. As for all THATLAZYMACHINIST videos, this video is produced for novice , garage or beginner machinists. You can find all my videos as well as project drawings and course notes on my website  THATLAZYMACHINIST.COM  . Thanks for understanding that I am a professional toolmaker and teacher but I am not a professional video producer (and it shows). I produce these videos for fun as a little retirement project that lets me give back a little of what was passed on to me by so many amazing trades people most of whom, sadly, are no longer with us.
