A/V Geeks Lunch 1-11-2022

so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so hi everybody i'm skip alzheimer welcome to the av geeks lunchtime streaming show where we watch old 16 millimeter films and talk about them um kind of as a continuation of yesterday where we showed astrodome footage today we showed downtown houston footage circa 1966 um and coincidentally the shirt i'm wearing the clown said i am alert i take care of myself every hour every minute of the day you can too if you will clowns never lie is from this magical place uh in houston called the orange show um houston i don't if i on the surface i don't like houston it's hot it's humid it's polluted and smog and there's just too many cars but the people of houston are very mostly very kind the people that i when i've done shows there uh and there's all these because of that humidity and that like smog and there's all these crazy art things that kind of popped up there so there's the art car parade that showed up um the orange show is i guess uh someone uh who was a mailman or he also delivered oranges back when he was younger he would like go to florida and then bring them back and sell them he decided that orange was the perfect fruit and perfect food and so he developed a a lot across the street from where he lived and made it into this theme park that was related to the orange and it was made up of all these wonderful things that he found and he bought and it has all this mosaic work and it's it's this amazing outsider artwork um similar to the watts towers and it's in the middle of a neighborhood and he was hoping that it this would be eventually as popular as disneyland um but this is one of the things from it and i did a show there because i love this shirt so much um and this is part of a display that has this weird clown kind of mosaic collage art thing that's and it has this in letters um anyways i did a show there about oranges clowns and line and uh so um houston yeah it's it's fascinating um all right uh so thank you kevin for the coffee um you can reward av geeks by buying this coffee ko dash fi.com that av geeks uh so this next film is uh teaches us some fundamentals and filing so is it filing or is it filing you decide of all hand tools used in machine shop work perhaps none is more important than the hand file anyone doing filing must learn the many kinds and sizes of files since the correct file must be selected for each job the worker is removing a sharp and dangerous edge he is applying just enough pressure on the forward stroke only to make the file cut the fingers are held away from the sharp edges the efficient worker always uses an easy long stroke the single cut file teeth are cut at an angle to the edges of the file and contact the work at approximately 90 degrees in order to get a smooth finish due to the fact that a file is cut the same on both sides the teeth run in the opposite direction when observed from the top side or operator's viewpoint the workman has been using a single cut bastard cut file the word cut as used here refers to the spacing between the teeth the coarseness or fineness of these spacings determines the coarseness or fineness of cut on all files under extreme magnification the teeth on single cut files resembled the teeth of a hacksaw let us compare a medium cut file with the bastard cut they are both single cut the difference lies in the spacing of the teeth all series of cuts can be roughly classified as coarse medium and fine however the bastard cut is between the medium and fine cuts in all series of files here is a typical filing job a piece of cold rolled steel cut off with a hacksaw to be filed the metal is soft and requires very little filing so a single cut medium cut file will be used before starting to file a flat surface be sure the surface is square the skilled workman knows the importance of the right file for the right job a single cut medium cut file is selected this file properly used will leave a smooth surface that can be easily finished be sure the file is straight filing a true flat surface requires a straight file all files remove metals in the form of small chips a magnified slow-motion view shows the formation of these chips some chips cling to the file and may be removed by tapping the file on wood every few strokes for an illustration let us examine a file that has been improperly used if the chips are not cleaned from the file they will pack between the teeth forming pins these pins scratch the surface of the work with this result tapping the file on wood does not always knock out the chips therefore a file card should be used frequently if the pins cannot be removed by carting a piece of soft metal may be used the expert workman uses only enough pressure on the pile to make it cut very fine thin oil kerosene or chalk on the file will help keep the chips from sticking when filing soft metals breaking the corners and cleaning the work is necessary for the next step in the filing operation to produce a smoother surface the worker selects a finer single cut second cut file using a file in this manner is called draw filing after the surface has been made smooth it can be polished by using a very fine single cut file profiling is used for all finishing and polishing here is a comparison of the single cut second cut file used in the first draw filing with that of the finer single cut file used in the final polishing the workman runs his hand over the file to make sure that it is free of chips chalking the file helps prevent pinning and gives a finer polish lastly the work is checked for accuracy such smooth and accurate surfaces are achieved by the workman after much practice and development of his skill plus his knowledge of files and the ability to select the right file for the right job we have been studying the single cut file in several degrees of coarseness and fineness now let's examine the double cut file required by this job let us compare them under extreme magnification the double cut file is contrasted with the single cut file has two cuts forming a diamond pattern of pointed teeth the single cut has parallel rows of teeth a double cut file is always selected to remove excess metal with a free easy pull stroke just enough pressure is used to make the file cut too much pressure may damage the work as well as ruin a file by breaking off the tips of the teeth a file can be ruined on the first stroke by too much pressure in this case the worker is filing a flat on the tough cast iron ring and has selected a double cut file since excess metal is to be removed and there is no need for a smooth finish also when filing soft metals such as aluminum a double cut file is selected to remove excess material however there are special files for this type of work such as the shear cut file the teeth on the shear cut file run at a sharp angle to the edge of the file here the worker is filing excess metal from brass another soft metal he has selected a coarse cut double cut file let us compare the double cut medium cut file and the bastard cut the bastard cut is perhaps the most universal of all cuts the course cut double cut leaves this surface a finer finish is given with a single cut file polishing is done by draw filing with a single cut file hand files are made in all shapes and sizes in all degrees of fineness and coarseness and for all different kinds of metal there is a file for every job wherever there are metal parts to be filed by hand to remove excess metal to provide smooth surfaces or to shape those parts just remember select the right file for the right job use fine cut files for hard metals use coarse cut files on soft metals use double cut files or special files to remove excess metals use single cut files for a smooth surface use only single cut files for draw filing keep the file clean use just the right pressure on the forward movement only and a long easy stroke to do the jobs that files are made to do in the hands of craftsmen calvin film uh robert altman the american director cut his teeth on direction working for calvin films kelvin films also made those alcoa management films among many other things they also made fries in which is wretched wretched sales film that's supposed to be funny featuring two members of laughing so uh william thank you for the coffee very much appreciated all right we got a film set up on the telecini which is behind me uh and this is this might be animated i think it is it's a rock bird and the rescue it's a voyage of sinbad story enjoy so [Music] [Music] it was in the golden age of princesses and roses and i lived at the court of sultan muhammad who was a great huntsman [Music] that's true [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so [Music] [Applause] [Music] whenever the sultan set out on a hunt i must needs go with him this was a great honor for such a poor sailor as i i stood in such high favor with him that he did not take a step without me a pity he was so heavy my back hurt but i did not complain at least not out loud i did not because i so greatly appreciated the friendship of the mighty sultan and there was another bond that held me bound to the sultan's palace the most powerful bond the princess the sultan's daughter she did not know that i loved her that was my secret [Music] so [Music] so [Music] do so okay [Music] all right [Music] [Music] okay [Music] hey [Music] [Music] my only true friend at the sultan's court the good old parrot had saved my life he had a loving heart and courage too [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] when they sounded the alarm i was far out at sea far from the sleepy princess far from the fat sultan i turned my back on them and told myself i'm not having anyone ride on my back again ever i rode all night long to get as far from the sultan as i could i knew he would never forgive my flight and that he would have me followed in the morning when the sun came out i saw a little island quite near at hand [Music] in the middle there towered an odd sort of rock like a gigantic egg can there be a bird that lays eggs as large as that but it isn't a rock either goodness what on earth can it be [Music] [Music] what am i to do now where can i flee this is the end [Music] [Applause] [Music] it was a gigantic terrible bird i scarcely dared breathe and i hid under its wings like a wounded mouse [Music] and when i saw its appetite i crawled into the darkest corner under its great feathered wing when night fell i remained buried in its feathers but i was so frightened i never slept a wink i only fell asleep towards morning and only for a moment [Music] what a dreadful awakening my head started swimming when i saw how high we were [Music] [Music] we flew all day i had to take special care for fear the monster would notice me the involuntary stowaway that could really be my end [Music] [Music] hey chad with my own eyes i saw how that terrible monster caught an elephant good riddance but what will happen to me now i was left all alone and i did not feel too confident what was i to do without any people that strange forest terrified me [Music] [Applause] uh [Applause] me [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] ah [Music] i understood the poor old man couldn't walk and wanted me to carry him i was sure he would take me to some good people and so i took pity on him [Applause] but woe betide me the old man settled down on my shoulders and kept kicking me like a mule he dug into me with his heels as if i were a horse and i could not get rid of him for the life of me [Music] is my back only for burdens not my own am i a horse or an ass i must get rid of the old man at any cost [Music] [Music] the cruel old man proved an indigestible mouthful even for the hippopotamus [Music] i plodded and toiled along with that old man on my back all day long without food or drink to revive me i would have given half a lifetime for a drink and suddenly the coincidence a little barrel was in my path some shipwrecked sailors must have left it there at last a drink i was dying of thirst but i never even wet my lips the old man was thirsty too he drank and he drank and he drank and not a drop did he leave poor me the barrel had been full of wine and that was lucky for me every cloud has a silver lining the old man was tipsy he forgot to hold on tight and fell off with a thud he forgot all about me and carried on like a juggler at the fair the wine had got the upper hand of him [Music] and i felt just fine as if i had thrown a mountain off my back from then on my lucky star remained with me the shipwrecked sailors welcomed me amongst them and together we soon set out again to see in search of new adventure [Music] a little wacky um peter thomas man no no 19 um among other things um blood blood spatter but um anyways to have him read a fantasy story like that is it's funny his you know you know his voice but you don't know his voice talking about fantasy stuff so it's it's kind of hilarious all right um this next film that we have set up is uh um i thought i had seen this and i thought this was part of the is a career in for you and i think it is but it has a different um beginning which means a different song and so i think that this is a strong candidate for the toe tapping tournament which we will probably start doing in uh march uh where we will pick our favorite uh jingles and songs from these films and then we will go head-to-head with the found footage festival who will be doing the same thing in parallel and um behind me is this the the spoils of victory from last year would shake hands with danger which obviously was going to trounce everything uh and the painting of the club of the hand holding the club that was something that had commissioned as uh something that i might want to play for uh they wanted to play for uh the uh clown thanksgiving painting which i had gotten from someone from a thrift store um and they were obsessed with that painting so anyways this might be a strong contender let me know what you think uh and then we'll start we'll start thinking about uh this in march so anyways here's uh the world of work enjoy [Music] there's something [Music] of choice [Music] the year you leave school three million others your age will enter the world of work many directly others after they've completed specialized education and training getting one of the better jobs becomes tougher with each passing year if you haven't started thinking about what you want to do if you haven't
