Hear me out. It's not how fast the job gets done. If the tool kept cutting. Steel razors are still inferior to obsidian glass knives in terms of edges and sharpness but obviously obsidian as a crystalline slush formed in a natural volcanic pyroclastic event would result in random cracks . I guess what I'm saying don't give up on this horse. A synthetic jade run at appropriate speed with the right cutting lubricant and monitoring the piezoelectric effect to detect if the crystal is near its fracture limit and possibly possibly. Mill out incredibly accurate stone and ceramic parts using a synthetic jade bit . But requires a system to monitor the temperature and electrical conductivity of the crystal as a signal for fatigue. Possibly even a custom chuck holder thats refrigerated because the nature of that crystal like quartzes is that it dosent make clean cleavage peices it shatters out into deathshards of chaos .. I bet a quartz bit would behave the same way also.

I work with jade. I’ve machined it but never tried to cut with it. It’s pretty strong due to the crystal structure and is 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, so it’s hard. But the sample used here isn’t the best. You need to try with a piece that doesn’t have that multicolored structure. That’s not as solid as you would want. It would work a “little” better with a less pretty sample that’s just pure green. Rounded flute tips would also work much better. I would also recommend a shorter, much stubbier bit.

@@madmurdoch2000 jade has traditionally been used for hammers. It has what’s called a twinned crystal structure which makes it very tough.

I feel like a rounded tip would break easier unless no plunging or milling with the tip was done. Even HSS/carbide tools that are ball nose break/dull more easily due to the whole "essentially 0 RPM at the very center thats trying to cut". That being said, i would like to see your example though of good pure jade as opposed to the marbling like impurities. Ever since i learned i can make my own rubies in my garage, its been on my project list to build a hydraulic chamber to try and make a ruby lathe insert tool. I feel like that would have a greater chance at surviving just given what direction the forces would be in. Seeing that jade end mill break in half tells me it really just couldn't take the flexing from that cut. I think he could have gave it more of a fighting chance to actually cut. He basically stacked everything against it by taking what looks like at least a 15 to 20 thou depth of cut and doing climb milling. At least see if it would survive like a 5 thou DOC while convential milling

I’m talking about maybe a 0.05” radius at the flute tip. I find that whether HSS or carbide, those last longer. But also, you’re right about the depth of cut. I was going to mention that before, but didn’t. I don’t know what rpm a jade cutter could withstand, but the higher, the better. I don’t see that he tried to determine what the cutter could do.

Maybe they should try it again and go to brass first instead of aluminum too. Aluminum is so gummy to cut if you dont have a proper coating meant for aluminum. I seen where when they were inspecting the end mill after it broke there was aluminum imbedded along basically every cutting surface. Im sure these guys at Titan are aware of that.

It's all about vibration and tool's resonance frequency , and giving the tool enough time to dampen the vibration, For example glass has very low natural frequency for small stuff between 200-500 Hz Steel has much higher frequency in the KHz range for the same size . Increasing number of flutes decreases overall fluctuation in vibration , but since the flutes are thinner the natural frequency decreases making it more brittle, . For example a glass sheets crack easily a glass cube will not crack easily because it has more girth and more volume to dissipate energy To increase the probability of success using glass or jade feed speed must be ultra slow and maybe make the flute channels narrower to allow for more girth to withstand vibrations also increasing fluting angles will help make forces and vibrations more axially aligned (radial vibrations break tools ) . Tips High helix angles High number of flutes Slow feed rate Narrow channels Maybe bulkier or conical tools

You tried to cut solid piece of metal with a Jade stone endmill it was gonna break but maybe concrete or bricks may just cut fine instead since they are just right in-between the line of solid as steel but softish like wood & plastic. You basically gave a strong enough material like Block of aluminum or any similar metal for the Jade endmill to cut-rub and vibrate like crazy on letting all the vibration from metal cutting to go right through the Jade endmill and crack it through inside out. Maybe if you make another Jade endmill drill a hole in the center of the cylinder through it's length drill it's center out and add a metal pin or long screw through the middle of the Jade endmill to dampen all the vibration going through it and increase it's sheer strength of the overall jade endmill. This method of putting a metal pin or screw through the center of a soft material dealing with high torque or high sheer strength loads also works for 3d Printed FDM & Resin printed parts especially for 3D printed tyre wheels that deal with high torque output of electric motors right into tyres which without a metal pin/screw will just sheer the center of the printed wheel making the whole wheel useless.

I don't think it got too much of a fighting chance. For machining aluminum especially with tooling thats not specifically designed to cut aluminum cutting fluid is not optional. I remember jamming the cutoff saw in our shop really bad useing the steel cutting blade on aluminum once. We did it commonly if its only a couple parts but without WD-40? Thing jammed right up.

Natural minerals range in hardness from 0 to 10. I would be extremely entertained to see an end mill made from calcite :D

Making this comment at 4:46 I predict it will cut all 3: the wood, the plastic, and the aluminum. I also predict it will do so quite well. However, being a natural product (mother nature is horrible at quality control), I also predict that the Jade end mill does not survive unscathed.

this is nice for some labs I imagine, in the case of needing different bits that won't shed particulates that would be reactive in nature of whatever goal they are attempting to achieve. ie. metal shedding from a bit and bonding with processing materials before intended reaction can take place.

Thanks for showing Walter Grinder programming, I am just starting programming ours for our regrind shop on the same Grinders. We have trouble getting the K land adjusted in correctly. How are you doing the K land? Our process was programmed to K Land with a differ wheel than the gashing wheel, so it makes it hard to adjust them both. I’m am thinking about changing it to rough and finish the path, dedicating a rough gashing wheel and a finish gashing wheel. I think that if the same wheel does the gash and the L land on the point angle edge it will be easier for the team to control. It will just be a matter of wheel wear then. Let me know your thoughts on this.

you have luugh! at 1:04, this computerised monster of a machine, has a "classic mode"? what classic if anything on the machine?

Greenstone was a prized and valuable resource for the Maori as adze heads (and nasty weapons) used to carve canoes and hew timber. Very tough but very time consuming to shape and sharpen.

Just to add, greenstone is a type of jade

Hi guys I saw this video and I think I might be able to make this endmill run in my new line of tool holders it would be interesting to try this endmill because the thing that caused the failure is the standard concentricity that you get in an ER collet holder. I think that the failure was due to being off in runout and the harmonics are off because of this. even if this endmill is off by .0002" or more it would probably fail.

Y’all should add a brass block before milling the aluminum

The big guy should be the grinding machine. Very abrasive
