A nice video Lyle, and I am not sure why your views are down. You have the subscribers, and you are right up there with the other engineering channels. Please don't feel discouraged, and please keep your videos coming. I worked nearly 40 years as a toolmaker, and here I am retired for 15 years, and still learning new things. That is such an incredible facility for youngsters just getting into machine shop engineering, and even those that have been doing it for years. You are doing a great service for us all passing on your experience.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@rightwinggunslinger1]

Summertime is here. People working working working.

[@shannonstebbens6992]

Lyle, I watch all of your videos with great enthusiasm AND ALWAYS learn from them!

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@bcbloc02]

I enjoyed seeing you use the table slots to set up alignment off of. It is a feature many people seem to skip but it sure is fast!

[@mrpete222]

Yes thanks

Been watching your videos for several years now and got an internship at a machine shop from all the knowledge from you Abom79 and Keith Rucker. Thanks your awesome!

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much I am glad I helped

[@MaturePatriot]

Loved the intro!! Cain, Tuablcain! - I like that Clausing Mill. I have never actually run a Bridgeport Mill. All my milling work in High School was done on a Cincinnati Horizontal Mill. A bad setup will lead to bad results. The intro to the job was time well spent. Eighteen minutes is not too long, an hour and 18 minutes of interesting content is not too long. Better than watching network TV!!!!! Waiting impatiently for the next video.

[@mrpete222]

Glad you liked the intro. No more horizontal videos for a while. No one seems to watch them except you, LOL thank you

[@kurtdietrich5421]

Thanks for the great video. There's always something to learn. And, you're never boring. I love listening to you. Thanks for passing on your knowledge.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@MrUbiquitousTech]

The only time he's boring in a video is when it's a video on boring. Then you can expect boring content; only then it's not boring, it's very interesting in regards to boring. So it's not boring at all although it's supposed to be. Boring that is.

[@kurtdietrich5421]

LOL

[@n5svm]

I personally like the set up videos watching Chip fly is fun but the set up is the educational part I need.

[@kurtdietrich5421]

Exactly. Set up is the key. Cutting is the easy part.

Excellent!!! I hope your videos are on here for years to come, I'm building my shop and I sure enjoy using your videos for guidance. I only have lathes so far but was able to cut a keyway with South Bend 9 with a milling attachment. Love your schooling, wish I could have taken classes with you in high school. Keep up the great videos.

[@MrUbiquitousTech]

The good news is we can take Mr. Pete's classes here and now. And now that we're more mature we're more likely to take away more from these classes than when we were in school and already knew it all. :)

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@CH-pt8fz]

Great work as always mrpete, you always make me think of my old college instructors back when I was an apprentice, back in the early '80s. Nice calm and accurate instruction giving more than one way of doing a job. I always say to youngsters watch mrpete and you will have a good place to start from. :) Though they find imperial hard at first being of the metric generation. LOl

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@charlieromeo7663]

Videos that show chip making are always encouraged, especially with the Clausing horizontal! The feed kickouts that I made based on the measurements you gave me a while back work very well. Thanks

[@PaulSteMarie]

Still here 😁 Dunno why this isnt picking up many views. Maybe manual horizontal mills are rare enough these days to make it unappealing. The Caltech student shop had a running Bridgeport, but the horizontal mill was inoperative the entire time I was a student.

[@mrpete222]

Yes, they are a thing of the past I think

[@nevetslleksah]

[@gregfeneis609]

Thanks, Mr. Pete! What about plunging in at the distance from the end you want, then using auto feed to advance the cutter towards the end of the shaft, then set up the automatic stop for after the cutter clears the work piece? At least you might get the benefits of auto stop and auto feed without concerns for auto stop accuracy. Just an idea I had, and ideas are like armpits...

[@mrpete222]

Possible

[@JamesDedmon]

Helpful information even if you don’t have a horizontal mill

[@garybrenner6236]

IT might be a good idea to machine that coolant groove to make it usable for clamping true.

[@barryfields2964]

Maybe you should do a video test the Accuracy of the stops. I thank that would be interesting. You know the set up, and figuring out how to hold the workpiece is what machining is all about. The actual cutting is just the gravy.

[@TrevorDennis100]

I was thinking that the repeatability would be OK, but how would you set that type of stop to within tolerance? It would be a bit trial and error with a tap of the stop with a soft mallet.

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@elsdp-4560]

THANK YOU...for sharing.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@bendavanza]

I'm curious how to set up the power feed cutoff with it being round. Do you take trial passes without cuts and see when the actual disengagement is?

[@mrpete222]

It is neither consistent Nora very accurate

[@roeng1368]

Maybe a video about cutting splines on a shaft like a pto shaft or something like that for a subject ?

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@mclem4u]

Concerning the setup: Did you ever have a boss asking “ what’s taking so long?” I know supervisors can get impatient sometimes? I know because I was once one.😁

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@basemkhoja4498]

Very good 👍👍👍

[@bro.weaver1282]

going to make cutting keyseat videos on the shaper?

[@mrpete222]

Maybe

[@BenButler1]

Good info. When you touch off with paper, do you set the dial at 0 and just add to the depth of cut, or do you set it the thickness of the paper before 0?

[@arienugteren3797]

If you are not sure you touch off 100%, you still have the key way height method with the Vernier Caliper, or Micro meter! This give you another checking possibility how deep you are.

[@Dwarfracer88]

Mr Peterson. If I want to make the end of the key seat particularly true, can I make my first few passes a thou' or two short then on my last pass cut to full length? Or would that last 1 or 2 thousandths cut at full depth be too much pressure on the cutter?

[@mrpete222]

That is a perfect way to end your slot. I often do that

[@stevewilliams587]

Mr Pete. Might have been worth mentioning that if the key seat were half way along the shaft a slot drill would be needed End mills don't like plunging. Back to the chicken belt n braces egg joke as I just taught my granny how to suck one.

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

I thought you should use 2 flute slot drills for cutting keyseats ?? 😕

I do not think it matters

Hello Mr Pete. I think your losing it. (Intro)?? machining cool. thanks for sharing.

[@kensherwin4544]

As I watched this video, I was struck by several thoughts. First: No dead horse should remain unbeaten. It's feelings will be hurt by the lack of attention. Second: I love watching that little mill work. Kinda like watching a kitten play with a butterfly. Third: Regarding a lack of views on machining, anybody who misses watching these all the way through has only themselves to blame. Fourth: Spending the most time explaining the setup and only a little time on the cut exactly reflects the reality of the shop. In most cases, the cut is (or at least should be) anticlimactic and nearly boring. That's not the place for excitement.

[@mrpete222]

Very good comment. And I got a good chuckle out of the dead horse,comment. And yes, the set up is very important
