[@Thepracticalengineer]

It's almost criminal to put so much info in one video 😮. Thanks I learn a ton from this series

[@akren2482]

Really appreciating the recap series! Having links in the description to the original videos is great too. Thank you for taking the time.

[@nyccnc]

Thanks, Alex!

[@isurfne]

This video just saved me a ton of headache. Please keep making these video!

[@cavemansmancave9025]

This is a great series. Hope everyone is well. Thanks, John

[@prestonengebretson2920]

I always learn something watching your vids John....Thanks your willingness to share these tips saves me the time to learn them, by Trial and Error...Keep up the Great Series!!!

Lots of machining 101 tips here. Learned most of this during my apprenticeship along with feeds and speeds and lots of other info in Machinery's Handbook. I left the trade before my shop got CNCs. Great content!

[@chiseled_face]

One of the best workholding videos I've seen - learned a lot!

[@DGil504]

Great Video John! It's always a privilege to learn some new tips and tricks each day! Keep up the good work sir!

[@bcbloc02]

Really enjoy these recap series.

I'm really enjoying this series!

Recommend ER collets and blocks over 5C for workholding. ER collets clamp from the working face instead of the rear like 5C. Thus you can make fixture plates and gang fixtures with ER collet blocks.

watching these videos is dangerous for my wallet hahah. so many good tips

[@jamescerven4400]

Awesome video!

[@btramm1980]

Hello. Kind of off topic but have you done a video of your shop showing how you manage all your cutting tools, drill, taps, etc?

[@robertocallejo8683]

Que tal un saludo desde Toluca Mexico : no se si me entiendas pero quiero que sepas que son de mucha utilidad tus videos gracias por compartirlos. En lo personal a mi me sirven demasiado no sé hablar inglés ni escribirlo pero esto es universal y si lo trato de aprender y aplicarlo en mi taller. Gracias

I've noticed you aren't using coolant in any of the CNC operations. Is that just a simple air nozzle, or is it a fogging nozzle?

[@rafecopeland2015]

Great information density, thanks! How did mount your 3-jaw in the collect block?

[@SukhwinderSinghNatt]

@2:51 how you got the chuck holding to that fixture? I saw center hole & 3 120deg apart holes drilled there @2:45...whats the connection ?

[@trevorlorimer6727]

Hey thanks for the series and content! There was a lot of investment in the Johnny 5, did something go wrong (besides pandemic) that you didn't finish up?

[@nyccnc]

He's back - update coming in June

[@JF32304]

Leave the part as a whole on the back and then once machining is complete lop it off. Just a thought.

[@footrotdog]

Hey, guys! What's happening with Johnny 5? The played Short Cicrcuit on the TV tonight and it reminded me we haven't seen an update video for yonks!

[@nyccnc]

Just filmed an update - look for it in June!

[@split141x]

Is the soft material lead? :P

[@idontknow8197]

Sounds like you need to get a live tooling lathe.

[@jameskenney5623]

What happened to the Johnny 5 series?

[@nyccnc]

Update coming in June!

[@jameskenney5623]

@@nyccnc can't wait, thank you

Next: Workholding eggular pieces.

It can be useful to have the same spindle nose fitting on your rotary as on your lathe. Not only does it mean you can use all the same chucks, but you can transfer work from one to the other without re-fixturing. I have found it so handy, in fact, that I recently made a fixture for the mill bed so that I can mount all my lathe chucks vertically, and repeatably. (And, I made a low-quality video of the process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/paXclH16lJVnbZo )

[@theflockfather4377]

Great video! Well done!
