CRAZY Drill Bit for big holes in Thick Metal + This Old Tony Tribute!

[@ThisOldTony]

Expect to hear from my lawyers... about how AWESOME that was!

[@turbocobra]

Fine, as a way to retaliate, i won't be watching anymore of your videos.... until later today lol

No safety

[@timwhalen4485]

I nearly fell over when he split that thick metal with a soft mallet...that was fantastic!!

[@fearnobeer9077]

Seems his hand moved an inch while holding the metal ,some might say it was edited even :)

[@distantscot945]

Recently I had to cut some holes in one inch thick 1020 mild steel with a 42 mm annular cutter running at about 300rpm, and found that birds nesting was largely avoided, not by actual peck drilling, but by momentarily backing off the pressure to zero every few seconds, but without actually withdrawing the cutter from the cutting position, resulting in shorter pieces of swarf exiting the flutes on the cutter. It also seemed to slightly speed up the process overall, but that may have only been a perception. It was certainly easier than constantly battling rapidly growing birds nests.

[@robisilas]

This is what we use in fabrication of structural steel for many years. Very good tool. I used hole saws with carbide teeth to do the same job in cast iron with good result. See me next. Old Bob

[@brentsmith5647]

Brilliant video thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@alexandregauthier1012]

That mallet trick was hilarious 😂

[@reideichner8597]

HI Gary, I really like annular cutters. I use them all the time to cope pipe too. Works great! Take Care, Reid

[@swaritsinghal4776]

How do you get it sharpen, Reid?

[@wtbm123]

Cool . That is what i need to drill my mower blades . No mill and my drill press has to much run out

[@BADMUDDERPLUCKER]

Okay, okay. You had me at "This Old Tony". Subscribed....

[@turbocobra]

Lol, well, my videos are quite dull compared to his, but thanks for subbing!

[@TheMetalButcher]

I just tried my first annular cutter today. I liked it.

[@douglasalan7786]

They're fantastic. Gear a drill press down via pulleys and I believe Hougen sells the adapter for them. Lots cheaper than a mill or mag drill for a hobby shop guy.

[@TheMetalButcher]

Drill press. Ha, no man uses a drill press when he has a bridgeport. :) I just tossed it in a collet.

[@ziggassedup]

I love Tony's vids too.

[@turbocobra]

oh yes they are very good

[@agwhitaker]

They ARE very good - problem is - his subtle sense of humor means you have to watch the video 2/3 times before you take in all the detail.

[@mrayco]

Tony,s video are the best

[@lengy64]

Lol it really works with the mallet. I tried it. 🤣

[@TheNico9696]

You got me there at 3:15 for a minute. Had to replay it a few times then I saw the edit. Lol

[@dougbourdo2589]

New subscriber. Like very much what I see so far. Nice shop & tools.

[@DSCKy]

One of the best things about annular cutters is you can cut a hole overlapping an edge.

[@turbocobra]

Yes indeed! you can slot with them also if your in a pinch and dont have the right size end mill (plunge slotting that is)

[@salvadorebertolone]

Ha, you are absolutely right on thicker material needs to have the swarf removed, also, dont leave it on the table, I have had my new swarf grab my old swarf and create a spinning rats nest of death. Ive thought about trying to grind a chipbreaker of sorts into an annular cutter to alleviate this problem.

[@williamchamberlain2263]

Could you clamp a vertical plate or rod on the side of the vice to break the chips?

[@Bettinasisrg]

That drill is probably three times more than the cost of my car! But beautiful cuts, and any reference to "This Old Tony" gets props!

[@turbocobra]

TOT is the man!

[@samsgarage2856]

Nice experiment. That saved a lot of time.

[@turbocobra]

Thanks Sam!

[@THEBOSS-vn2ky]

Who made your table?

[@riggatoni1369]

I just want to add that you did a really nice job welding your Tab & Slot table. Most over do it!

[@turbocobra]

Oh thank you sir.

[@panosgamithis8868]

That is "AWSOME"... Have to get some...

[@akbychoice]

Cut it, glue it, crack it with a hammer. Neat trick. Sorta like a left thread at the end of a right nut brazed on not many can figure out how to remove it.

[@turbocobra]

You got it, took about 5 minutes to do, it's a tribute to ... this old tony ... on youtube, he makes some of the best machining and metal working videos on youtube and uses his young son to cut steel with a knife or sword. check him out if you get a chance.

[@akbychoice]

Ramsey Customs - turbocobra I still enjoy things like this. Never to old to learn a new trick.

[@turbocobra]

yes sir

[@RichardCraniumRules]

Nice

[@billarroo1]

I've never seen that before, what type flat bar was that? A36? , wow just like a clay brick. William

[@TheAsdfg74]

4:00 for this drill tools not needed oil or a cooling liquid?

[@mdovideo1414]

What do you scribe the steel with?

[@rayeddy528]

Howdy Gary. Thank you for another interesting video! Be safe and God bless you!!

[@turbocobra]

Thanks Ray,. appreciate it!

[@DSCKy]

A bit lower speed speed may stop the chatter as well?

[@turbocobra]

Right that's what i was thinking., not sure if you saw me, but I turned it down from 230 to 170 rpm and it didn't seem to make a difference. I think the spindle is running out a bit too much, just visually you could see it

[@TheFrameoff]

Cool tool ..

[@gerry5134]

This fella must be Thor ! Did you see that metal snap off ! 😨

[@williamchamberlain2263]

Could you clamp a vertical plate or rod on the side of the vice to break the chips?

[@pablolay9340]

are there a cup cutters to perform a 2½" diameter through a 3" thick Steel plate?, and were we can buy it?

[@markl2761]

liked your video but a good comparison would also include how fast the annular cutter gets dull compared to a drill bit. How easy to resharpen, how strong one is to the other etc.

[@turbocobra]

Excellent points for sure

[@salvadorebertolone]

Also, instead of oil, ive started using coolant in a spray bottle for virtually everything that doesn't have a coolant setup on it.

[@turbocobra]

Soem great points, Thanks Steve

[@bentlikeitsmaker]

used to run them in large mag drills but beyond 40 mm steel the carbide version works so much better had less issues and out lasted 2 to 1

[@gavinbrown38]

Do you still have some of that 1 1/2" plate and 2 3/4" annular cutter?

[@turbocobra]

Gavin Brown I have some of the plate left but don't have a 2.75 annular cutter but could bore it in the lathe with the four jaw chuck

[@Shoorit]

Im having difficulties with the mallet cutting method. Despite how hard I hit the material I can’t seem to get a straight cut.. the pieces are never square. any ideas?

[@turbocobra]

lol... close your eyes and swing the mallet as hard as you can!

[@sailormandave1]

Please do me a favor and take the chuck key out of the chuck in the lathe in the back ground - that's all I could concentrate on. - ex apprentice instructor.

[@smnkm4ehfer]

[@bazza10198]

nothing like having a key thrown at you by the lathe...... there it is!!!

[@chuckyz2]

after finding out the time and equipment needed to sharpen those annular cutters, it becomes obvious these are not for most. Only production shops would benefit from purchasing these and the jigs and grinders needed to maintain them.

[@turbocobra]

Good point. You can buy the small ones on eBay for around $20 each and they will drill 300 holes without needing sharpened, but year the larger ones need a lot of power to turn and may not be the best option for a home shop

[@rea50]

Hello from Brazil! Just a doubt, can i use that drill bit to notch tubes?

[@AlexA-yj9ft]

BHZ Motovlog I bet a hole saw would be better, annular cutter's teeth are probably too big

[@joeblow3939]

⭕⭕ The technique you used to cut the stock, if you use a plastic razor blade and first go all the way around it that will leave a cleaner edge. 👍👍

[@anthonynorwood8290]

I think there is no problem with pecking. Provided it's done right, those that advise against it possibly rammed the tool down on a peck and never tried it again.

[@xccxvindaloo]

Love your videos man especially when your "special" tools make light/fast work of certain jobs😉.

[@turbocobra]

Lol thanks Andrew!

[@ronpeck3226]

Whats wrong with Pecking?

[@ERPP8]

The chatter when the bit first makes contact probably wears the bit down more than when it's continuously cutting.

[@tomthompson7400]

couldnt give a toss about your broach ,,,, where can i get a hammer like that though ,,, lol

[@Randy_84]

cool bits, I'm still just here reading comments.

My original comment was about using an oil can. Not sure why these guys kept replying to my comment about pecking at it.

[@turbocobra]

lol yea it was that and tons of others in comments and on a message forum that my video was linked on

[@karyncody3647]

its vertical and horizonal

[@turbocobra]

exactly, 2 separate spindles

[@BennyAndJammy]

I cringed each time you grabbed the chips with your bare hands and tore them off the tool.. use needle nose pliers

[@smnkm4ehfer]

men get callused enough where it doesn't cut you anymore

[@joemacdonald9796]

Scotty Mac 22 bull shit. He is lucky. But he will only be lucky until he looses his finger.

[@joemacdonald9796]

Scotty Mac 22. he was reaching in with his hand while the spindle was still spinning. Any shop I have ever worked in he would get fired for that behavior. pussy ass hands. lol .

[@smnkm4ehfer]

+Joe MacDonald what's your profession out of curiosity? because it doesn't sound like you do a lot of work that would toughen up your hands, just judging by your comments...

[@metallitech]

That was amazing how you fractured that flat bar like a brick.

[@canyoulearnthisfromyoutube3863]

Next time pay attention to your hand position and it would look almost flawless

[@TheMrGreenie]

You gotta learn to keep those fingers away from the swarf while the spindle is still rotating. Those long turnings can rip the skin off the side of your finger - or worse.

[@arealassassin]

yep- this guy is an A&E admission waiting to happen...

[@al9094]

You started talking about annul cutter thought dam porn pop-up block was off

[@jaxxbrat2634]

you cracked off a section of that bar with a plastic mallet? wut!?

[@turbocobra]

lol nah, just some tricky video editing. I was copying "this old tony" who does similar things a lot in his videos here on youtube

[@JohnDoe-ql4jj]

@@turbocobra You should clearly mention that fake cut in the video or description or some novice or nitty-wit get it to be real and get pissed off when they can't do it.

[@markmorris2336]

hi great video Im not a metal worker but I feel like a idiot was that real the hit with the hammer I think not but never know the Mexicans that put up my metal garage ripped the metal in straight lines without cutting

[@mikefowler9887]

Man...I scribed a line an I been hitting this thing with a hammer for hours now...how'd you do that? Naw, just kidding. But I did get my son to beat on it for a minute

it's a rotobroach. pick an up on the tool truck lol

[@manos3790]

Scotty Mac 22 'Rotabroach' is a trade name. Mag-drill cutter is more commonly used., Much as a vacuum cleaner is known as a 'Hoover' to some folks.....

[@smnkm4ehfer]

manos3790 if you want to get technical, mag drill cutter is more incorrect than rotobroach, annular cutter would be the actual tool type name

[@jamescole3152]

LOL that was a joke right? A good trick though.

[@THEBOSS-vn2ky]

WHY. I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS OF TINY😢🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤔🤗

[@mikemcgln5049]

why didnt you just scribe a line on it and smack it with a hammer like the beginning ??????? you would have saved a 13 minute vid

good point!

You got a thumbs down when you tried to do a stupid editing/magic trick at 3:08. Booooo. Lame.
