[@seinfan9]

Do these break often and wear out quickly?

[@henrypeterson8497]

@@seinfan9 I've never had one break, but the relatively soft minerals and small sample size means I don't put a ton of wear and tear on the component. I also do mostly spot drilling--just straight in and out with the bit. When I occasionally do rasters or transects where the bit is moving horizontally I get more nervous, but no issues so far

Slightly off topic but what are u doing that for? To anaylize the age of certain object?

[@henrypeterson8497]

@@prumchhangsreng979 I'm interested in the stable carbon isotopes present in the rock. It's from a period nearly 600 million years ago called the "shuram excursion" where there is a really mysterious isotope record in carbonate rocks from all around the World. We're trying to figure out what caused this signal; could be related to changes in ocean circulation, photosynthesis, or many other things which affect carbon isotopes.

[@henrypeterson8497]

@@youtubeisgarbage900 I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but I'll do my best. First, my research is not carbon dating. Carbon dating is the study of radioactive 14C, which is produced in the upper atmosphere by reactions with cosmic rays at a fairly consistent rate, and decays into nitrogen at a very consistent rate. By comparing the 14C content in a sample with the original content (which we infer) we can estimate the time elapsed since something stopped incorporating carbon from the atmosphere (for example, when an organism dies). Since 14C decays rather quickly (around half of any sample will have disappeared after just 5000 years) we can't use this method to date things more than a few hundred thousand years ago. Instead, my research is focused on analyzing the two stable isotopes of carbon, 12 and 13, by which I mean they do not decay over time. So to your comment, most charcoal comes from the aptly named carboniferous period, which was indeed more than 3 hundred MILLION years ago-no chance at all of using 14C carbon dating. I'm not sure what iron tools you're referring to (again, I don't do carbon dating) but I can tell you they are not millions of years old, both from a human evolution and carbon isotope perspective. Hope this helps convince you I'm not a fraud

[@ParadigmUnkn0wn]

Several corrections: 0:50 - The grinding wheel is not "applied to a chamfered edge" it is creating the chamfered edge 1:23 - The centerless does not "grind them down to a specified length" it grinds them down to a specified diameter 3:18 - If that technician takes 4 to 5 hours to setup a single drill bit in that grinding jig... I don't know what to say. They most likely meant 4 to 5 minutes which is about right, or possibly the entire drill bit lifecycle from blank to finished takes 4 to 5 hours; however, I believe the former to be most likely. 4:09 - If it's impossible to see the difference before and after fluting, you need an eye exam. @Science Channel, if y'all are hiring for a script writer/editor, hit me up, 'cause y'all clearly need a better one.

Can't always use an edm. Maybe the part won't fit, or you're using it for surgery, or the part isn't metal, or it's in an environment or location that prohibits the use of an edm and it can't be moved, or you can't afford an EDM. There are lots of good reasons to use these. The only downside is the rigidity is critical. You need very little runout and a very stiff drill press.

Could you tell me which carbide they used?

[@dillonrajaniemi9513]

@@SanoCrushridge the blanks are tungsten carbide. This video doesnt show any coating of the drills, but it's quite common for these drills to have some coating on them, depending on performance requirements

Very cool too

4-5 hours to center the piece?! Definitely gonna need a chair

[@Dani2wheels]

How is it possible that I can buy a whole set of these on Amazon for 10 bucks?

[@hyperhektor7733]

ebay 2-5 bucks

[@fristrm]

You dont buy the same type of drills as this endmill is, the drills you buy can even drill allot of the materials this "Endmill" can.

For people who understand how "secretive" carbide manufacturing techniques are, this 5-minute clip is absolute gold.

4 hours to center a bit for a 10 second cutting operation?

[@rfengr00]

Not Dave I can’t see that, as they’d be out of business. Those bits are not that expensive.

[@Runkpapper]

Just guessing it's for the first bit. After that you can use the same setup for the same size

[@ogi22]

@@Runkpapper not really... it seems he is centering every bit, but it for sure doesn't take 4 hours. Did some centering of tools and tool holders for rotary milling machines and those are WAY more compicated than this little thing.
