Grindng the Carbide Inserts for the Carbide Boring Bar

The final video in our "Keith Rucker" boring bar series! It's all completed and in Keith's hands. We learned a lot during this process and we're glad we had the opportunity to work with Keith and Robin!

Great video, great toolmaker, great family

Excellent series and results! Your use of the surface grinder and attention to detail is awesome! Thanks for taking us along.

Great fun watching you guys work this out. It will be interesting to see Keith cutting this threads. Thanks for the lessons in precision.

Wonderful video Steve...! Special shout out to your daughters, who's increased confidence level is definitely noted. Cheers to all of you. Thanks from Canada...!

Excellent conclusion to a great tool making adventure. Nicely done ladies & gentlemen.

Thank you so much for the segment on side wheeling details. I learned important knowledge there that I had no clue of. You made it easy to understand. Just keep talking through every video. The stuff that is obvious to you is otherwise mostly unobtainium for us.

Another great video to end this series on.

Awesome build, discussion, demonstration, and video.....enjoyed the intro with your beautiful daughters and love seeing all of your specific tooling that you have built...learned a lot about setups....

[@roncartwright8125]

Such attention to detail, Brilliant. Can't wait to see Keith use it!

[@James-fs4rn]

Enjoyed. It would be nice to see the geometry lesson for the tool angles. Maybe Robin could make a video on it? Thanks

[@bcbloc02]

You and Robin did a nice job. A tool and cutter grinder likely would have made this project go a lot easier.

[@Tools4Machines]

Thanks for the tip on wheel wear, high pointing, from the inside out. Great video series.

[@robertengl9152]

Thanks for the series. Very well done

Hi nice to see you out from behind the camera. We are liking the KZbinr collaboration Steve Keith and Robin (means this is going to be a great boring bar for sure 3 experts make a cutter) come to an end with this boring bar heading off to Keith where it will be in good hands and waiting to watch him Keith utilize it in the shop. Wonderful boring bar thank you for sharing the making of this fine precision tool:)

[@RyanWeishalla]

Nice project and fun to watch.

[@MakinSumthinFromNuthin]

Nice work Steve! Great looking bar 👀

[@pierresgarage2687]

This turned out great... Since carbide is kinda brittle, you never know, Keith may save himself by using the HSS insert you made extra, HSS is quite forgiving and so much less brittle...

If you bang a finger nail, keep it well above heart height for about ten to twenty minutes. This lowers the blood pressure, prevents the nail from going black and helps keep the pain down.

Love to watch you working
