Making the KING of All Knurling Tools (Part 1) || INHERITANCE MACHINING

Welcome back to my manual machine shop. In this video series I’ll be making a much improved knurling tool from my current bump knurler setup. Rather than engineer this one from scratch I’m starting with the sensitive knurling tool kit from Hemingway Kits (not sponsored). The kit is based on the somewhat renowned vintage “Marlco” design and has a lot of advantages and nice features. This first video will focus on the arm assembly and I’ll be making heavy use of the mill and the rotary table. And of course a fair bit of lathe work with some unique setups will be needed as well so you know I’m excited for that!

I come from a family of engineers and my grandpa is an amazing mechanics. Seeing you using all this inherited tool works is really inspiring for me. We have a small workshop in the basement, but your journey and your story inspired me to double down on our small business to one day buy a proper workshop and fill it with all tools so that my children, my cousins and the generations after can always get a place to make something. Having a machining space within that workshop is now part of the end goal. Thank you for all that passion and joy and have a GREAT 2023!

I think I remember Adam Savage going over this same Hemingway Kit clamp knurler recently, it is an awesome piece of equipment.

[@aserta]

They are the best kits on this. You've basically 3 major options. Start from scratch, buy an old one, or buy this kit and season to taste. IMO, buying the kit is the best option. If you start from scratch, you're going to have to use a lot of tasty chunks for this, and that's a shame when the kit (or the old ones) exist. And buying an old one comes with potential baggage (worn parts incompatibility issues).

Yeayyy... a new episode just when I binge watched all episodes. The machining and drawing content is really interesting. I think I could be listening to you reading a phonebook.

[@Gnomebitten]

You may be interested in a tool another machinist on youtube made; Blondihacks made a corner rounding fixture for her rotary table that's reusable for projects like this. It's basically a morse taper mandrel that sits in the rotary table and accepts pins of different sizes like the one you machined out of aluminum. They have a little shoulder that raises the part above the rotary table so you can stick parallels under there. Makes setting up corner radiuses and dogbones much easier than milling a new fixture plate every time. The drawings are on her patreon but the video is in-depth enough that you could probably draft your own design on the concept, it's pretty simple.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I think I recall seeing that as well. Might be worth investing some actual time in a setup like that so I'm not constantly making new pins and whatnot. Thanks!

[@RampancyIncorporated]

I was literally going to suggest the exact same thing.

This seems like a video that rather than having an abundance of side projects, is more dangerous at inducing side projects in the audience. I always think about knurling this or that thing that I make, and often avoid doing so because of the annoyances of the tool I have, similar to what you started with.

Happy Knurl Year Brandon!! ;-P Most excellent order of ops and especially all the great fixturing/setups you did...mistakes or not beautiful work. Looks like a solid, substantial and quality build! I'm looking forward to seeing how this works after writing a dissertation on knurling a few years back because of all the variables involved in getting a good Knurl...consistently. Then building a spreadsheet to work with all the wheels I have and any starting material diameter. Twas a big learning curve for me but have thought several times about building a rack and pinion type. ~¿@ Love most of the Hemingway kits but never built any.

In the mid-'80s I used to work in the design office for WDS Marlco (formerly W. H. Marley & Co. Ltd.) who were the designers and manufacturers of these in Watford, UK. The company was predominantly known as a broach manufacturer, for which in certain fields they were unsurpassed in the UK, and had a small range of general engineering tools such as this. During my time there, I saw several toolmakers retire from the company who had started there as apprentices! Happy days, and they're still going in a slightly different guise.

[@jobkneppers]

Brandon, thank you for another great episode of machining. A small tip from my side; if you clamp two "identical"parts together in one vice or chuck just add a piece of plain paper. It will for correct the small differences in the parts and the bowing under pressure of the clamping device (chuck/vice etc.) and can make a difference in to be safe or sorry. Drilling is not that critical because the main force is downwards. But by using paper as a shim (in a decent vice or chuck) you can also mill identical features without moving one of the parts. God and the devil are both in the details... Thank you! Best, Job

[@InheritanceMachining]

[@giraffewithtattoos2770]

A few comments/questions, if I may: Im a woodworker by heritage, by choice, by trade... While this level of EXACT perfection isn't useful in wood, I can certainly appreciate it. The engineering woodworker part of my brain has zero problems looking at this knurlers final form and seeing exactly how I should build it if it were to be built from wood. My question is this: To the machinists that this channel is catered to, do y'all look at this and see the same steps/work order that we woodworkers do? While I know shaping and drilling are the same functions, there's enough difference in tooling and methods that I have to wonder. It obviously comes with experience, but Im asking about the mental forethought and planning. I found this soothing, interesting, educational, and enjoyable. Sir, you ticked every box for me in a trade that I have no experience, so congratulations.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks for the kind words! As for your question I've done a fair bit of woodwork myself for our home renovation including custom trim-work and cabinetry. I tend to take the same approach as toward machining despite the differences in tools. I come up with a detailed drawing/plan and think about the features I need to make and how I'll make them on the woodworking tools I have. I'm a bit looser on the tolerances and other clearances though just because of the nature of wood to expand and contract. Just my 2 cents from my limited experience

[@griffinshite2859]

Awesome project as always! Even as a 25 year tool and die maker it is still very satifying to watch someone with real skill manually machine a quality tool. Small tip if it is welcomed: when you have two pieces in the vise together a strip of paper on the moveable jaw side will ensure that any variance or missed piece of crud in the setup will keep the potentially loose piece from moving. Even parts that are ground together only need a couple of thousandths worth of the unexpected to keep the other part from having the same clamping force applied to it. Keep up the great work and I look foward to all of your videos.

Thanks and great idea! I'll need to remember that one!

I took a few years of vocational school for metal working/machining. I always loved using the lathe and mill, also enjoyed welding. I sometimes fantasize about buying a small lathe and maybe a mill sometime and start making things again.

Very clever fixturing and I love the finish - looks like industrial jewelry yet again. Five stars young fella!! Art from Ohio

Thank you as always, Art!

I saved this video for Saturday morning to drink with my coffee. I maybe 33, but it's the equivalent of a kid's Saturday morning cartoons for me hahaha your videos are so good my dude!

[@InheritanceMachining]

😂 Thanks. man!

[@sallyweiner4180]

I simply love your narrating and I have learned so much about milling! I could never figure out how these things were made

[@bearsstuff]

I also experience tripping the breaker on the air compressor in the winter. I've thought about moving it somewhere warmer or ducting in the furnace. I hope you never need a bigger box of shame. Though, in the spirit of learning, rename the box 'box of experience gained'.

As always another amazing video and more inspiration. The short time your channel has been around and the quickly growing subscribers speaks volumes for the quality content you provide. I also have to say as a machinist it’s inspiring and humbling that you show your mistakes and keep them in a repurposed box instead of turning them into chips. Thank you for sharing and doing what you do.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you as always, Aaron. I've got a lot of learning to do so might as well share all the wins and looses along the way and hopefully others pick up from them as well.

[@georgedu8444]

I just managed to finish binging all your videos last night, and now another? Great way to start the day

[@nomo69ss25]

I so very much enjoy your channel/videos! Reminds me of my days as a prototype machinist, the challenge! Having others ask “How’d you do that?” and just smile and reply “Think about it!” and walk away! 🤣🤣🤣👍✌️

[@InheritanceMachining]

😂 Always keep them guessing. Thank you!

[@nomo69ss25]

@@InheritanceMachining Best way to learn!✌️

[@georgedennison3338]

Watching you make this knurling tool was educational & satisfying... plus, it made me dang glad I bought a medium priced scissor-type knurler & made a few mods to improve it. Otherwise, my Box o' Shame would have been foot locker sized! Thanks...

[@bryansykes3297]

love this ! THANK YOU for sharing it with us. Bry

By far the best machining channel on KZbin. I learn something new every video

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you 🙏

[@vladyslavkotov7570]

another episode of the greatest tv show of all time. pure therapy

[@samhouston800]

I stumbled on the channel early last year with a few hundred subscribers. Absolutely my favourite KZbin channel - I thought nobody could ever overtake my mechanics channel but you’ve done it!!!

[@InheritanceMachining]

You are very kind! Thanks for following along this whole time

[@Lwimmermastermetalart]

NICE! I’ve been a journeyman tool maker for nearly 50 years so I can appreciate your video. So refreshing to see manual machining . I do love watching CNC don’t get me wrong. I had my own CNC shop for over 40 years before I retired. Over all those years I tried hard to be instrumental in teaching machining and recruiting students for our local Vo Tech. Not easy as schools want to push most students into college. This type of work is becoming a lost art. Todays manufacturing is pushing buttons at computers. While I do love it and am amazed at todays technology the ART and skill of being able to do this work is still the basics every machinist should know. I also applaud your video. Very well done . Some ppl simply shouldn’t make these type of videos. Your equipment looks very well maintained as well. That too is extremely important. And don’t feel bad about your box of goofs. You should see all I’ve accumulated over the years too LOL.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I really appreciate all the kind words! I too appreciate the advancements in CNC tech over the years but there is something that is lost from the manual way of doing things. I find this true for CAD tech as well which is why when I can I manually draft my designs. I think knowing the manual ways make for both better machinists and better engineers. Thanks again!

A tip for the air compressor: when you can, replace the pump with one of the "v-twin" style ones. They run a lot smoother, pump faster, and seen to run a lot easier on the same motor compared to the big singles/parallels. And you'd be amazed how much of a difference synthetic compressor oil makes in the cold! Source: I live in Wisconsin.

[@iteerrex8166]

Awesome! I have never liked the push knurlers, for the same reasons you mentioned.
