Yup, I watch every video that Mr. Pete ( Lyle Petersen ) puts out.
Retired shop teacher. Very cool stuff.
Having those busted ribs last fall , found me some time to discover all kinds of neat youtube sites related to wood and metal working.
Now I have something to watch in the evenings, while my LOML is busy with the "other " tube....

Hey that's Mr Pete!
Mr Pete was my shop teacher in HS.
Lives here in town.
I see him at sales and talk to him every now and again
Have been in that garage talking with him
In fact, he and I were talking about that vise at a sale out on Spring Lake Road.
Unfortunately I was heading out of town and could not deal with the huge old bench it was on so I had to let him get it

I grew up in Waynesboro PA (home of the Emmert). Think the sign is still up on the old building. Owner ship of the company had changed hands several times over the years, and at one point, our neighbor was the owner.
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Yost and have that mounted on my bench.
