How to use Angle Blocks

[@mrmerkin6203]

Thanks. Nice straight forward video without a lot of extra and unneeded yacking.

[@MrSims-ky2ne]

Another awesome tip! Anyone can afford some cheap angle blocks until they get collet blocks so this is a valuable video and the first time I'd seen it done that way!

[@frankmora8336]

Thanks. Im new to machining, watched a lot of videos but never seen a hex made with angle blocks. I learned something new. Ran across a article about you and how you plan on short videos. Well I just subscribed. Thanks

Thanks for watching, Frank, and welcome to the world of machining!

[@Butterbean00]

I look forward to your videos. Thanks. They are extremely well done and I always learn something new.

thanks for video just picked up a set of the angle plates with the stop on the bottom at the swapmeet at a good price and your video was helpful.

[@eldigitom9680]

This is a fascinating video, totally outside my trade and knowledge level but great to watch--you have good equipment.

[@pauls5745]

tysm! I forgot that you can combine them to also subtract degrees. good to know these sets are over 1/4" that's going to be a pain bcs I'd like to machine some 3/16 and 1/4" stock

Interesting point about thickness- mine are mostly 6.3 or 6.4mm, with a couple that are in-between. Guess they are cheap, and it is not that important...

About the angle block spacer, place the angle block on the movable jaw, install spacer, then set part, clamp. The spacer will never fall between angle block and jaw, your part is referenced to the fixed jaw. Better yet make a stepped spacer, that sits over top and on side of the angle block which is hooked so it doesn`t slide down and stays in place.

The card stock is also soft enough for the stock to deflect under load.

I don't know how you knew my uncle's name, but it was totally creepy that you mentioned it.

[@plainwornout3964]

Thumb up, good info.

[@TuanTran-qu6md]

Hi. I am new to this field. Can anyone please tell me if can can use 30 and 15 degree block to make 45 degree. Thanks

[@StuartdeHaro]

Yes you can

[@piccilos]

thanks for the tips

[@jeffryblackmon4846]

Very good!

Ordered this set and a bunch of other tools from sellers on eBay. There's an option to order from US sellers, but that has been circumvented by Chinese sellers. The Chinese sellers will post pics of well machined tools, but they ship junk. Wouldn't mind if they posted the actual tool they're shipping, so I can make the choice. Reputable sellers are also selling questionable tools as well now. Seems we may be better off making what tools we can, when we're able to.

[@thosoz3431]

I get rubbish from Chinese sellers no more often than I do local. What the Chinese have done for us is murder the ridiculous prices for tooling that made it impossible for the amateur to have a go.

[@cri8tor]

Yes, I agree. I've been modifying a lot of the tools I have, that were made in China, to improve how well they work. Because these tools are more affordable, I'm able to work on a lot more projects and make more accurate, quality tools.

Nice vid แต่โฆษณาเยอะ

[@บังโตไม่อยู่ขอหมูไม้นึง]

Fake?

[@StuartdeHaro]

What do you mean?

[@บังโตไม่อยู่ขอหมูไม้นึง]

@@StuartdeHaro my bad

[@choukifogiel]

thanks for your videos.whats the cutter your using here?

[@StuartdeHaro]

Hi Chouki. It is an APT Tridex endmill, model EM-100-R8. It is a single flute that takes a TPG insert. I picked it up at a used tool store for not much money and am pleasantly surprised. You can't feed very quickly because of only having one flute, but the finish is nice and the inserts are easy to come by. Thanks for watching!
