I would cut off a piece that's too long with a hacksaw, so as to not deform the tubing, then clean it up on a belt sander to both remove the burrs and get the length correct. Setup a fence on the belt sander table that's perpendicular to the belt, and away you go. Just slide the tubing against the fence and into the belt and take off as much as you need. Of course if you have a lathe, that would be better, but I suspect he doesn't have a lathe, otherwise that would be option #1 from the beginning

You are an inspiration, and a demonstration that talent, determination, and work will get you to amazing places. It is useful to note that for most people a standard education is an easier way to get there. Bolts and screws are interesting. The most common screw has wood threads (sharp to bite into unthreaded softer material or sheet stock) and a head with a recess (slot, square, hex, torx..) to drive it. The most common type of bolt has threads designed to mate with a pre threaded metal nut, and has a (usually hex) head driven from the outside. The head seems to have priority, in that a machine screw has bolt-like threads but a recess in the head. A lag bolt has wood threads but an outside driven head. So my impression without looking it up is that the driving recess in the head makes a screw, while the outside driven head makes it a bolt.

Loved this video! As far as the difference between a screw and a bolt, at least to my understanding, is that a screw is designed to use the material it is being driven into as its method of fastening, whereas, a bolt's fastening method requires a nut that clamps onto the outer face of the material through which the bolt is placed. So I would say the difference between a screw and a bolt is the method in which they secure to the material.

Firstly, excellent point. I think my definition for bolt is probably off as you would use a bolt for a drilled and tapped hole. However, when drilling and tapping you’re essentially making the material into the nut for the bolt. So, to refine my definition, a screw is designed to move the material and cut its own threads within the material. A bolt requires predefined threads, either within the material or externally with a nut.
@GordieGii2 жыл бұрын
The difference is which part you turn to tighten it. You turn a screw or you turn a nut. It doesn't matter how the threads are formed, wood screw or machine screw. A carriage bolt is a bolt. A hex head can be a screw or a bolt depending on whether you turn it into a threaded hole or turn a nut onto it. A lag bolt isn't; it's a lag screw. Not because of the threads, but because you don't turn the wall onto it. If you use an anchor bolt you turn the nut.

Love your videos! Just wanted to make a comment about gears/pulleys and your comment about work always being constant. While this is true in the ideal world in reality (work + losses) is constant. Losses as you mention in your opening are things like friction between the teeth of a gear or the belt and pulley as well as the shaft and the support. If you add pulleys you will be increasing the friction losses. I ran an experiment where 4 pulleys only reduced the force required over a single pulley by a factor of 2.5 and not 4 as you might expect. Another consideration especially with belts is the losses in the bending of a belt (particularly a vee belt) around a small pulley this often causes slipping losses (and wear). Thanks for your demo ... and discussion!

You need a tubing cutter. It works great for a small number of pieces. I have a miniature table saw with a jeweler's blade. When I need to make a bunch of small bushings or certain length tubes, I cut them one the table saw using a sled. Works really well.

A tip for cutting the bushing material is to cut it whilst it’s over the pin material. In your case, slide the bushing material over the aluminium rod then cut it to size. You will possibly sacrifice some aluminium rod but it allows you to clamp the material and the cut will be cleaner.

Just discovered your videos. Great job. I look forward to watching more of them and sharing them with my son.

With the belt laying loose when you drove home the parallel between gears and belt+pulleys (6:47), I pictured the belt as a giant third great going around the outside and touching both gears

Exactly what I thought. Although, on second thought, it's actually the SECOND gear, since it's clearly the one that goes counterclockwise when the drive gear is going clockwise.

I love your engineering educational videos, they are amazing. I learn things even though I know a fair bit of engineering science already. That is a beautiful clock! But also, the time lapse build portion is just amazing to watch... you should do more of just that. I think some time lapse build videos would be easier to make (without the narration and explanation and fewer cuts), I think, and give you more content and exposure for your channel.

lol a screw secures to the material itself while a bolt secures to a nut on the other side of the material ;)

@@pufthemajicdragon You turn the screw to tighten it, even if it is into a captive nut. You turn the nut to tighten a bolt, whether it is a carriage bolt or a hex bolt with the head captive in the material or just held still with a wrench.

This is my first time watching one of your videos! Your delivery and easy going style are very enjoyable to follow. You show your points expertly and elegantly. Totally Subscribed and set the reminder bell on. I look forward to binging your past videos and watching your future videos! Oh, and... A screw secures itself by friction with the path it makes in the medium it's screwed into. A bolt is secured by friction with the nut. Next step: make the clock self adjusting to the government time website!

10:11 Use a bushing, any dissimilar material with grease will usually do.

Now all you have to do is re-engineer the clock to have a sweep seconds hand! Also, in clock and watchmaking setting the gear engagement is called depthing.

Beautiful project.. The only design critique have is that the hour hand doesn't really seem to stand out very well, and actually looks like it might also be obscured a lot of the time. A splash of color might help that though. Rather than redesigning the hand shapes.

I kept having the same thought. I was thinking I need to get a piece of oak and stain it so its really dark. We shall see. It is easy to replace once I make up my mind :)

If you do the six hour increment you can always add a third hand that has 4 denotations that essentially allow you to at a glance tell if you are in the 0-5 range, the 6-11 range, the 12-17 range and the 18-23 range. So 3:15 am would show up as 3:15 on the two main hands and be in the first quadrant of the third hand while 8:24 pm would read 2:24 with the third hand in the 4th quadrant.

Screws are threaded up to the head and bolts have a length of plain shank to the head and then thread. Great Video btw.
@numberpie2 жыл бұрын
difference between a screw and a bolt is, screw is designed to be driven into a medium or across two mediums to create tension within, while a bolt is designed to be paired with a nut and washer to compress two mediums between the head of the bolt and the washer (or nut if no washer is used), via a pre drilled hole in the mediums. both have similar uses however the way they are put to use is how they are different. the easiest way to determine if something is a screw or a bolt is typically by looking at the hole its is going into, if the hole has threads then its most likely a screw. (also take this with a grain of salt, I was not there when the books were written.)
