These Will Save My Parts

Most of the time I use the 4 jaw chuck on the lathe, I also use some makeshift soft jaws to protect the part finish. But my shoddily thrown together jaw covers look like an afterthought and don't necessarily give me the warm fuzzies that I like to have when using my tools. So today I’m spending way more time than necessary making something that will look a whole lot better. I guess they will work better too… but mostly they will look nicer.

14:30 As a math teacher, this made me so happy to see! Also, you don't necessarily need a graphing calculator for the matrix multiplication. You could use something like Wolfram Alpha for example!

[@_D_P_]

I didn't have either in high school. Had to do matrices on a regular scientific calculator.

[@Dirk-Ulowetz]

You don't need anything of these. You only have to know one number. 1.414. 1.413 × 1 414 = 2 In Germany it is called Wurzel 2. And my mobile can't show the sign. When you have a 45° angle and you need to know the kathete, you divide the hypothenuse with 1.414. If you want to know the length of the hypothenuse, then take the length of the kathete an multiplicate with 1.414. Easy. It's only the sentence of Pythagoras.

[@mtnbikeman85]

Note the two line display TI30xs also can do matrix math, works the same as the TI83 but just a bit harder to see. Super useful as its an approved calculator for the FE/PE exams where graphing calculators are not.

[@georgescott6967]

​@@Dirk-Ulowetzin English we say "square root of 2", often abbreviated to "root 2". In programming many languages have a library function sqrt(2). My (android) mobile has √2! I can't work out kathete though... Also, in an attempt to be helpful, we use "by" instead of "with": multiply by 1.414, divide by 1.414.

13:47 if you dial in off of the moving jaw without it tightened onto a part you risk your angle being off slightly from the slop in that jaw. Not super important here but it is something to keep in mind for tighter tolerance angles. Btw awesome work, you make this look easy.

[@jonahbrame7874]

You did an absolutely killer job with this project! That home made corner rounding tool in a boring head worked so much better than I thought it would! You really put us CNC guys to shame with your fixture design skill; that radius fixture is performing beautifully! A couple of things to keep in mind when doing big deep pockets like that: Sometimes, just grabbing a big drill to hog out the center can be way more time efficient, and then you can come back and mill out the rest of the material. in addition to being faster, the chips already have somewhere to go when roughing with an endmill now so you are less likely to recut them and break a tool. Also, it is definitely worth roughing first with a larger endmill and coming back with a smaller one to pick out the corners and finish. Of course this is coming from a guy who runs CNC, so doing a tool change is nothing, but with the amount of material to be removed at those depths you'd definitely still make your time back.

i get such a kick out of that custom rounding fixture plate, that thing absolutely rules

[@andrewlundsgaard3399]

The best tools for roughing pockets are drills. Drilling the corners then dropping the endmill to final size prevents corner chatter. Then big drills as appropriate to hog out the remaining area will result in far less work for your end mills and you can use bigger end mills as the corners are established.

I kept expecting that rotary table to activate your "Final Smash."

I can’t express how much I have truly appreciated and fallen in love with your videos! As someone who doesn’t do machining your videos are very soothing and inspiring. And it took me two videos but your channels name is amazing! Can’t wait to see the rest of your journey and look forward to the next one!

18:07 took my breath away. Beautiful.

Oh daaang, these rounded rounds are indeed the single most attractive thing I've ever seen anyone bust out on a manual mill 😍 Stunning build as usual!

[@InheritanceMachining]

I think that's my favorite operation to date! Thanks!

[@rahulujjal8245]

That's pure beauty! love the attention to detail in your videos, as an Art Director I recommend your videos to my team to understand concepts of hard surface modelling. Love your videos!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you so much!

[@goboyz8016]

Not only to I envy the work you do but the time make for yourself to complete the work is also quite enviable!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks! It does help that this is my full time job now 😉

In the future when milling deep pockets use the largest endmill that will fit into the area and use it to drill out the bulk of the waste material. Then just make sure you have endmills with long enough flutes. Carbide endmills will also help since they will have the least amount of deflection lessening your chances of breaking them when milling at maximum depth.

Currently my favorite machining channel. Drawings, setups, procedures, mistakes, home shop style, beautiful results. Smart, clever dude, too. Thanks for sharing.

That moment when you went from radiusing the one edge, then saying you were still on the rotary table and made the smooth radius on the corner.... So satisfying.
