Grinding and Finishing Metal in One Step!

[@MakeEverything]

Thanks for watching everyone! There was a problem with some of the product links in the description but Ive fixed them. If you are interested in checking out the polivlies wheels you can get them at amazon!

[@fubar7441]

!nnn!n!nnn!nbnnn!!!!!n!nb;;n??bb! :hh

[@jodydewey3516]

I cant seem to find them. The link didn't take me to them so I searched by name and they aren't coming up.

[@jeremyrock9305]

It seems like they don’t create much heat you were loading that grinder pretty heavy and I don’t see the metal changing color!

[@chriskelly3678]

There is something about you that makes your media most entertaining and informative. Bravo Sir. 💚🌵☘️

[@emaddarawsheh7420]

Bro....I don't know your name and I knew to your channel, thanks to you I deleted many KZbin channels claims to have knowledge about welding business....you are the best greetings from Amman-Jordan

[@davelantaigne6610]

Yes please. Add as many tip videos as you can. I am a wood and drywall guy, just expanding into metal at age 52. I am also a teacher and have a lot of film/tv experience. Your videos are excellent. You are a natural teacher. Great, succinct explanations with examples. Your edits are seamless and your audio is pretty consistent. Keep up the great work

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Your tips and tricks are welcome! Many channels cover the basics, but your tool and product discoveries are sharing in the most productive way to do shop work. Much appreciated and useful. ✌

[@MakeEverything]

Thank you! I appreciate that comment and am really happy you are enjoying the videos!

[@protect.your.digits.creations]

Hey Chris , I learn so much from your videos and after building Arcades / Amusement centers for 25 years I thought I knew it all. Keep up the great work.

[@bonnieadams9717]

Just found your videos and love them. I am a high school metals teacher and will be using these videos when teaching. Why? because, kids get tired of listening to me and they are great when a student is absent or needs to revisit how to do something. Thanks, I hope you do not mind.

[@MakeEverything]

Awesome! Love to hear that!

[@jgemeinhardt3955]

Really enjoy your product and how to videos! There are many good project videos out there but many of the channels never really dive into the products and uses that make the process easier and higher quality. For those of us who aren't "in the business" everyday but serious hobbyists many times aren't exposed to new and innovative products the "pros" use, so huge thanks for your efforts!!

[@arlingtonhynes]

It’s the peanut-butter-and-fried-egg sandwich of metalworking.

[@Maxxis1941]

You just made me hungry.

[@EngineerMikeF]

Thanks for texting total machine time when speeding up video, definitely useful for deciding if i should use a process.

[@MakeEverything]

Im glad that was helpful. It all adds up when you are grinding 10, 20, 30 welds. Like I said in the video, if you are grinding down thick welds this will do it, maybe not as fast as a regular flap disc. The beauty is having the option in one product

[@ProlificInvention]

Great video. Reminds me of a time I made an angle grinder with a flap disc into a unit for cleaning driveway expansion cracks. Works incredibly well, used it for literal years.

[@MakeEverything]

Thank you, seems like a good tool for that type of job!

[@dwwoodbuilds]

I really do enjoy the tools, processes and tips videos you do. I have limited time for projects, so your videos are a big help with working smart!

[@CFairNH]

Always enjoy your project videos and these products how to videos are terrific. Always learn a tip or trick to make my workshop better. Thanks

[@MakeEverything]

Awesome thank you for watching!

[@davidwilfong5820]

I just love the new bees finishing wheel after a grinding wheel

[@Thewatson77]

Well damn! I didn’t know these existed yet. Great disc option! Thanks for sharing

[@thallmeister]

I like the specific stuff, maybe for future videos you can do some wheel dressing tips or other stone grinding related tips. I don't see a lot of content in regards to grinding with stones or carbide burrs. These are things we use regularly in the die room, stone choice and dressing make a lot of difference. Granted there's not always a ton of reasons to need to know it. Drill bit sharpening is always fun to learn as well. Looking for when and why to sharpen or change bits perhaps. Thanks for the content though.

[@MakeEverything]

Good idea!!

[@anitaswart.]

Great video, thanks. I am always looking for practical hints and demos to share with my son in Taiwan and my son in law in South Africa. I live in the UK. Hope they can get these disks. I am 70 and I still want to learn how to weld mainly to make structures for my garden that have got some artistic fling. Keep up the sharing.

[@cconnon1912]

I have noticed good quality flap discs do the same thing. When they get worn they can leave a brilliant mirror shine with a light touch. But when pushing on it hard it removes an amazing amount material.

[@latetodagame1892]

You make it look easy. It ain't that easy!

[@richardsmith548]

Super interesting and informative, love this type of video as well as the projects. Keep em coming.

[@MakeEverything]

Thank you Richard

[@wcdaniel7]

Very informative. I will look to purchase a couple grinding discs used in this video.

[@jonnybkuehl878]

Really like where your heading with this!! I like the informative videos.

[@nealesmith1873]

Very informative! Did not know such discs existed.

[@kaydog2008]

Call that a one step grind instead of cleaning up after a grinding disk looks like they saves you alot of time. May have to get a few boxes of those in different grits.

[@scottcarr3264]

In our workshop we use a lot of Pferd slitting discs and grinding stones, especially the black vitrified stones, they grind Stellite quite well.

[@dennisyurcik5961]

These videos are great. I watched your previous project videos and waited for the tips throughout. These are great for the tips up front. Love the review on metal cutting recently. Would love to see ways to tap threads (I know you’ve talked about tapmatic before). And metal polishing would be great. Rock on!

[@garagemonkeysan]

Great video. Love all these unique but useful tools. Can trust your opinion because we all know you're the real deal. Mahalo for sharing! : )

[@patrickbroaden9820]

Solid...video

[@AndysDogHouse]

Hey Man. First of all, nice welding. Those disks are fantastic. I wish I knew about these disks 2 days ago. I am restoring 1954 Fargo and I am doing a lot of sheet metal welding grinding. In the fall, I will be doing more work on it so I will look into these disks. I relly enjoy all of your tips and tricks videos. Thanks for sharing. 🍁👍👍

[@jdnotariano]

Good demo, I’m sold

[@MonkeOfAMillion]

I would love some tips on how to grind spheres/metal balls smooth as efficiently as possible.

[@mvnar]

that's a nice piece of 2-in-1 tool but sadly still not available have in Bharat. Loved to see how it can be used. Good stuff Bro, do keep churning out more stuff. Looking forward 👌🏽👍

[@CashensPowerwashing]

Have you ever heard of Aaron from the Lean and Mean academy. Great channel and have learned alot from him about businsss and power washing. Learned alot from you as well 🤟

[@davidcovington901]

I'm a shop noobie. I'm going out now for 2 more grinders.

[@MakeEverything]

Rather be looking at it than looking for it!

[@jeremyspecce]

@@MakeEverything you should sell that plasma cut, like Jimmy’s “I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it” letter press print

[@jeremyspecce]

Definitely helped so much when I got a second grinder, (usually have a cutting wheel on one and a flap disk on the other) and if I have a big welding project coming up I’ll certainly get another one.

[@jwdickinson643]

better make that 4

[@travis51666]

thank you for your time

[@scott-kf1bi]

Love those discs and especially your vises.

[@mazdarific1726]

Show some tips and tricks. Organization. Cool tools that save time.

[@MOREGORE2745]

Awesome content ! 👍👍

[@Hchiievhhd]

Would you recommend these for removing paint from a file cabinet? Paint removal from metal + a finished surface with one disc sounds amazing!

[@_DeFiNiTeLy_Not_BrAd_]

If you were doing aluminum tubing exclusively, would you go still use the same discs? That rounded disc did a good job, but what about areas where you need a smaller wheel?

[@alanm3438]

Nice. I do some metal art. I use flux core wire and it is real messy. I am not a good welder either. I can see how this disc would help. I do use flap discs now but they do not really last all that long. Thanks.

[@pizzahunter1717]

I took a welding class from him lol very cool

[@Jaydayallday]

Nice vid. Enjoying all the info. What disc would be considered for my frame on my truck? Has a lil bit of surface rust would like to take that down and get it ready for paint?

[@albertshilton5336]

Great video. I need to polis the edges of 1/4 inch thick aluminum that is already polished on one side. It, I want it square and mirror polished. What do you recommend? By the way, I have a wood shop. No metal working tools other than an angle grinder and puffers.

[@johncatt1867]

Thanks for the tool tip, these look like a cool tool upgrade. Any van improvement / Upgrade videos on the horizon?

[@nonamenoname1737]

Will these work on aluminum boats? Smoothing out rough welds, gouges scratches etc?

[@ardvark84]

This kind of things have to have some disadvantage and it's the time. If it takes 1 minute to grind that short weld it's already to long. Normally im using 2 grinders, one with course disc and the other with something softer so I don't have to swap discs all the time. It will take maybe 20 seconds to flat that weld with 40 grit disc and 10 or 15 to smooth it out so I will be faster by 20 - 25 seconds per weld. That's over a minute on 3 sided part like you have in the vise. I'm all in for new stuff but only if it's actually better than what I allready have.

[@princereign6385]

Good explanation bro

[@mahamaha4816]

Brother. Very detailed video. Informative and useful. I am an amateur DIY guy. A question: can we go grinding without a guard while using flap disc with a vairable speed grinding tool? Thank you for nice video. Liked and Subscrbed in the first minute

[@MakeEverything]

When I’m finishing and grinding steel I almost always remove the guard and use a slower speed variable grinder. The guard will typically interfere with the grinding discs full size. Thst being said, always use a guard when cutting with a cutoff wheel! Good luck!

[@meca13b]

Very informative! No longer available from Amazon , any suggestions where to order from ? Liked and subbed ✔️

[@donwright3427]

Time saver.Thats good

[@antoniobuys359]

Great content, Would be awesome if you adjust the focus on your camera. Most of the time your focal points aren't actually in focus.

[@dominikj.5095]

Hello. By grinding stainless steel pipes to satin or a mirror, do you also do it in a minute with the effect like in the movie? Because if so, such a surface finish is only suitable for paint, and then for a thick layer that will cover scratches. Man 3M Cubitron for the first cut, and then Norton H821. And only later something for satin or a mirror. Greetings from Poland, we already have this technology, it is a pity that in the US there is no ...

[@jeffreywolf5235]

Is that how they get the aluminum frame so smooth on a Cannondale mountain bike? It's impressive I was blown away so much I bought one. Also the wait and the styling was way ahead of its time.. my bike locks and water bottle weigh more than the entire bike does itself. It's crazy

[@MikeShelby67]

Where are your grinder guards?

[@scottdavidson4792]

What do you use to fill small imperfections after sanding welds before painting?

[@MakeEverything]

It depends on the paint process and what I’m going for. If it can be bondoed I will use body filler. There are also high temp putty you can use for powder coating. I usually try and dab a little more weld in there if there’s a gap or low spot.

[@dartagnandebatz3304]

Good afternnon : Excelent explanation about finishing grinding wheels, would you be so kind to make a video, about how to make finishings in stainless steel welding at pipes?...Thanks in advance

[@HiveMind2024]

Excellent

[@SameerThakoor]

can you recommend sheet steel bend finishing process?

[@196184508]

Can you please provide a part number for the combination discs that have the sand paper and woven fabric

[@KangClown]

question, with this wheels work if someone is in the welding field and is prepping the metal to get rid of mil scale on the metal before the actual welding phase.

[@bobgeldoff9413]

also is that a scourer pad? can i just glue on a scourer pad to my grinding disk arre you saying this is the same thing

[@antwanwilliams6893]

Where are you getting these from? I've looked almost everywhere

[@jddandridge]

Awesome 👌

[@moejr14]

Do you have a link? The ones in the description don’t work

[@bobearl7859]

I think I'll go with the two-step mold them things are pricey $110 bucks for five discs

[@andrewwong2000]

I bought some of these Pferd discs.. they work, but they aren't cheap and they don't last any longer than normal cheap flap discs.

[@Danirio96]

And thats why you have mora than one grinder

[@hp7093]

Wonder how long it will stay effective. That s the problem I have, just dont last long and expensive

[@MrJrw1956]

Can I use these grinding discs with a drill? Or what kind of abrasive can I use with a drill?

[@tomthompson7400]

do you have to take the guards off the grinders to get these discs to work ? im not sure I would be comfortable telling employees to take guards off machines , Im sure the health and safety executive would complain .

[@syedahmad836]

Very nice , I am from India how can I purchase it.

[@elong70]

[@bobgeldoff9413]

what about countersinking a bolt had?any good for this.

[@fidelis06]

Hi can you send me te link again to biy the grounding and finishing disc. The kink doesnt work. I want to buy some

[@AquarianNomadic]

Those don't cut. Those are mostly to finish. I blend stainless and aluminum welds on rails. We use Klingspor and Prfrd

[@jmquez]

It’s like 5x the price dude... just buy them separately

[@allenhunt3070]

Much prefer you building projects. Seems like its sort of an infomercial channel now.

[@MakeEverything]

I appreciate you sticking around. Some of my projects take weeks to do so in between I like to sprinkle in a little shop knowledge!

[@oakleyjack7600]

I actually enjoy both, if I don’t enjoy something he or another content creator post, I wouldn’t watch and therefore there wouldn’t be a need for a negative comment.

[@allenhunt3070]

@@oakleyjack7600 Well, I almost never make a negative comment, but he specifically asked for feedback, so I assume he wanted to know what folks are thinking. This is my opinion only. I really enjoy Chris' channel except for videos like this one. I bought those round edge corner discs earlier when Chris showed them, and I valued the information and enjoyed the video, but maybe its too much of a good thing.

[@allenhunt3070]

@@MakeEverything I get it Chris. Thanks for posting content. Looking forward to future posts!

[@menotyou7762]

so here is the problem, Abrasives themselves work in balance, if you get finer finishes you give up material removal rates, if you get higher material removal rates you don't get good finishes. Now really the BEST way to do the corner weld he is doing is to use a 60 grit resiin fiber disc to remove the weld, (resin fiber discs keep the grind area very flat and consistant) then use a 120 grit to remove the scratches then paint, any skill at all using a grinder and your finish is spotless and you shouldn't have scratches even with spray cans. In a production environment the best thing to use would be the 60 grit flap disc only, a skilled grinder can do this easily. Stainless is of course a different operation. Combination flap discs have their uses but they are very limited to specialty applications

[@Blue-5878]

I don't think they make these anymore I tried looking for them?

Love the video. I tried the link for Polivlies 100/120M Finishing Disc ( 5 Pack) and it is not working. Comes up with a picture of a dog and says sorry we could not find that link. BTW, I subscribed to your channel.

[@Blakewrtv]

These discs clogged up really fast… this is the primary reason to consider when using them.

[@erniehenshaw4161]

The amazon link for the 100/120 finishing disc doesn't work.

[@stevecarlisle3323]

Do you do a lot of polishing with 36 grit 🤔

[@tigerseye73]

Grinding off welds is something one might do for architectural structures that are supposed to look pretty. Obviously you will lose a degree of strength in the joint. This aesthetic touch up grinding should not be used in critical structures that require the ultimate joint strength.

[@maxwijnand7771]

Given proper penatration a ground down (flat) weld is actually stronger in many cases as it creates less of a stress concentration. Avoiding any sudden changes in thickness of material (e.g. weld buildup) will make a structure way more resilient to fatigue.

[@Absoluteshine1]

It works un aluminum ?

[@IHadToMakeThisAccount]

Does anyone know if they make these for buffing wheels?
