New Clamps for my new vise part2

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Awesome a 48 minute video from ADE! Exactly what the doctor ordered :-) Thanks for continuing to make these vids Ade - we need the extra entertainment during these times. Right, off to watch the video now. Cheers mate, Craig PS: Nice jumper

Thanks Craig , stay safe . Cheers Ade.

[@CraigsWorkshop]

@@ade63dug Cheers - and it was a great video and got a thumbs up from me. Looking forward to new interesting stuff from the new mill (and the old lathe). Hope you can stay indoors and isolate Ade. Cheers, Craig

A wall socket cover that doubles as a small shelf ! The clamps are looking good . Cheers .

Remove three inserts, and you have a fly cutter. I have an Ebay special Sandvik 6 insert face mill, which also has a pocket which must be distorted, as one insert sits proud. I removed that one and two others at 120°, and use it as a three tooth cutter. Your sweater looks the one I made by holding the angle grinder in one spot with the sparks hitting my stomach. Keep the great content flowing. Thanks.

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Good thinking! A fly cutter can give a better finish too, usually (at the expense of speed.)

[@samrodian919]

RotarySMP been there done that many times, shirts, jogging bottoms you name it, you know when your leg starts to get hot it's time to stop the angle grinder before A, the shirt or bottoms catch fire or B, shirt or bottoms start to melt on you depending if they are natural fibre ( fire! ) or synthetic ( 3rd degree burns!)

[@richardgalli7262]

I will not lecture someone on shop safety if you havent figured it out by now you never will. I am here for your projects. Keep at it.

[@britishreaction54]

That was very good. I'm stuck on a ship in the US, I can't get back home from work to the UK. My family are alright in the UK. Your videos and Doubleboosts are really helping me. I hope to be home soon to my family and my workshop!

[@garyc5483]

Good Luck Carl. Hope you get home soon. regards

[@MartsGarage]

Nice work, Ade. I can sense you're really enjoying using your new milling machine. I have an Elliott Omnimill and I get a great deal of pleasure from it too. I normally put up Early Ford related videos but only tonight I put up a machining one, a bit of a change for me. Every job I do I learn something new. Same goes for watching you. The setup with the parallel was a good one. Cheers! Mart.

[@davemason6273]

Nice clamps Ade. Thinking you should have spent that cutter money on some decent spot drills, a must have now you've got the mill.

[@ade63dug]

Yes indeed . next on my list , Cheers Ade.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Ades, nice work, looking forward to seeing your next video, please stay safe, Cheers Matty

[@bostedtap8399]

Great job on the vice clamps, always the luck of the draw from Banggood, currently about 70% of useable equipment. I think they rely on selling cheap, then expect the decadent westerner's not to bother complaining. I purchased a ER collet face plate in November 2018, order arrived December, and they sent some other items, much emailing, and photos, took till May 2019 to get correct item. Great vlog Ade, thanks for sharing. Stay safe all.

[@donaldnaymon3270]

Nice work Ades. I Like that mill. Lathe is getting a little lonely. Great video. Thank you for sharing.

[@robertlark7156]

Great video. Get yourself a few carbide end mills. Night and day difference. Also grab a few spotting drills to use instead of the center drills. Keep up the good work.

[@TedRoza]

Great Job, and very neat ....

[@nikond90ful1]

Thanks for the video Ade.

[@kimber1958]

I am so jealous of the mill. Your parts look beautiful. Package left Heathrow on the 20th. Keep up the great work. Let’s call it keep up the playing in the shed.We can’t call at work

[@eyuptony]

Hi Ade. Great work on the vise hold down clamps, like the angle trick to save time setting up in the vise. That new cutter head is atrocious anybody with no knowledge on this sort of tool would be seriously in trouble trying to machine accurately. Tony

[@willemvantsant7416]

Hi Ades, just checked my shell mill, same as yours, perfect even protrusion of inserts. Send yours back or demand a refund.

[@ElTallerdeSanti]

Eso pinta muy bien, buen trabajo.

[@waynesmith1046]

Hi ades, had the same problem with the ones I perchesed. The 4 tip cutter only 2 of the tips were cutting ( Not opposites ) and the 5 tip cutter only 3 tips cutting, checked them out on comparater and they were way off , in the scrap bin they went.

[@samrodian919]

Wayne Smith I was lucky, I ordered a 50mm 5 tooth shell mill on Fleabay, and it didn't come with an arbor, or inserts,so I ordered an MT 3 arbor from Banggood and the inserts from fleabay as I couldn't find the right ones from Banggood. The shell and arbor arrived a few weeks ago and the inserts last week. Today is the first chance I've had to critically look at the stuff after watching Ades vlog this morning I thoroughly cleaned the mill mt3 spindle and checked the internal spindle run out, which turned out to be between 2 & 3 tenths, then fitted the arbor and I've got a total of half a thou runout so I'm well pleased. All the insert bar one are nice and level, so I have machined one side of a block of 3" square by 6" long cast iron. Got a but of tramming issues ( it's a mill drill combo with the mill pillar attached to the headstock type like the Machinemart lathe) but the finish is quite good. I have just taken the shell mill off of the arbor and cleaned it and looked at the inserts and the one that was different was sitting a bit higher and I have just polished the bottom of the pocket to let the insert go lower with a thousand grit diamond hone and will try it again later. Sorry it's a bit long winded!

[@waynesmith1046]

@@samrodian919 Hi there, you were lucky ,I ordered 2 face mills both no use they are produced by the thousands and next to no quality control. The one I am using I had to mark one cutter place ( tip slightly low ) and go through tips one by one turning them around until one fits as each tip seems to be different ( sourced from ban goo ) .happy chipping and be safe

[@RagsdaleCreek]

Some nice clamps.

[@badjuju6563]

Have you ever considered making a mini power hacksaw as a project?

[@industry65]

No 😃

[@britishreaction54]

I got a little horizontal bandsaw from Aldi. It's a copy of a portaband. Comes off the stand to be used as a portaband too. It's compact.

[@billofalltrades1468]

You're making great use of the milling machine, sorry about the bangood cutter.

[@EverettsWorkshop]

Bummer about the face mill, it really seems like tooling coming from "there" is hit and miss. Gotten some reasonable stuff and some stuff that was simply scrap metal out of the box. Hopefully you can get a better one soon.

[@mender2624]

Hi Ade, Nice video about the vice, is it the same as those supplied by Arc Euro Trade? Could you please tell me what size Tee nuts and slot size the WM16B uses? Thanks, Chris

[@ade63dug]

Hi Chris . the slots are 12mm and the threads are typically 10mm . I have made some M5 and M8 t nuts so far for various things for my mill but the max is M10 . i think if i were to buy the clamp kit again that i woud buy the one with M8 studs etc and then make my own t nuts to suit , the M10 seems overkill on a mill of this size . Glad to help , stay home and stay safe , Cheers Ade.

[@mender2624]

Hi Ade, Thanks for the prompt reply - much appreciated. I've ordered a WM16B but there is no clear guidance on the website on the Tee slot size. I've done some milling on my lathe but vertical milling is new to me, and I wasn't sure which clamping kit or Tee bolts to order. I 'm maybe confusing things by assuming that a particular metric thread size must have a fixed size of Tee nut or Tee Bolt head size to fit the WM16B tee slots. Obviously if you were to make your own Tee nuts and bolts you coulD use whatever thread size you like. Interesting that you think the M8 kit is ok, but is the area of the M8 nut surface large enough for the WM16B slots?

[@ade63dug]

@@mender2624 I think we got our wires crossed . You do need the t nuts for a 12mm slot . the standard kits will have a M10 stud with these nuts . What i was saying is that the sets with the M8 studs would be ok but you would need to make your own t nuts to fit the 12mm table slots but with an M8 thread instead of the M10 standard ones , Cheers Ade.

[@mender2624]

Hello Ade, I think I've finally got it, 10mm stud and 12mm slots. I'd been thinking of buying a milling machine for ages but your videos inspired me to take the plunge and get one! Great stuff and plenty to keep us occupied in these unusual times. Best Regards, Chris

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Hey Ade - did you make that little brass and delrin knocker? I like the design, kinda like a little hammer head with no handle. I could use something similar on the mill.

[@matspatpc]

Yes, Ade made it as part of the ball-turning tool. Here's the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2e7ZXt_edJ9qaM

Variable Insert Protrusion is a feature 🤣

This certainly brightened up my morning , Thanks Yuchol .

[@chuirios365]

Why don't you set up a one, or two inch travel dial for your moves on the mill?

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

Ade! My soft trousers, only used indoors, looks the same as Your pullower! They have extra ventilation because of chips being pulled out of them…… Not holes, more like mailboxes…. At 4:11. That was really a sad chap, that face milling head. Could You mount 1 insert and use it as a fly cutter? Or mount the 2 sticking out inserts and have a double fly cutter? I'm joking. Ask Banggood for a total refund accompanied with some pictures. At the time 6:00. Why not put a blind powerplug in the other outlet? That's easier. Then You have fun for 42 minutes. I share Your success. Was turning for 5 hours yesterday and today my back is tired…..

[@frankjames4573]

Hi ADE... I guess you won't be doing workshop tours now as the CV-19 has hit Wales! What a shame as I was planning to visit your workshop later this year... Anyway, it will give you more time to improve you parking and cafe areas! I take it, the wife will be working on the sandwiches and teas in the future... Do you have a vaping area? That cutter has put me off buying $h!t from Bangood! BANGOOD.... more like BANGSHIT... lol... Frank...

Hi Ade, If you want to return the cutter to Banggood you may only be offered a small refund. this happened to me.

[@incubatork]

Re the milling head, i think its the luck of the draw, mine is "perfect" not all Chinese are unscrupulous, although i have had a few things that could be better but not bad enough to make them useless. I have also found that buying from Aliexpress rather than Banggood, products are cheaper and of better quality with more choice too. The odd thing that was bad I was instantly refunded, whereas with banggood you have to explain, send photos of packaging, product and video etc. in order to get even a partial refund, with Aliexpress a photo of the problem is enough to get full refund. Not to be abused but i feel more comfortable buying through Aliexpess even though the actual seller is quite often the same person. Just my personal experience.

[@matspatpc]

Yeah, as I wrote above, I bought one from Amazon, and it's been good. I too have had a bit of a mixed result from buying things from any of the different suppliers. It seems like it's all the same items either way (although randomly you find a nice item you think will arrive from China, but it turns out to be made in India).

[@robertoswalt319]

I purchased one of those about a year ago. When I tried squaring some stock I discovered that the lead edge would dig into one edge and cut a bevel while the trailing edge cut as it should. I believe the issue is with the arbor not mating properly with the cutter head. As you said, absolute garbage

[@mamoshimamoshian9078]

I bout one too but never could use it, not even on Aluminium!!? so just dont buy it Guys it does not work on nothing. OH maybe wood...

[@ianjefferson6687]

Send that garbage back to Bangood. Take photo's of it and send them a link go your video. If they keep getting away with sending out sh(t they'll never change.

[@carlmcferran9371]

Well you do tend to extend the videos by showing repeated drilling and cutting on all of the clamps, no real need to show every little detail on every clamp, gets a bit boring watching the same operation over and over again. Makes your videos a bit boring, would be more interesting if you stopped repeating your same cuts
