[@richardcranium5839]

sounds like a fart with a lump in it lol

[@hackish1]

I like that little piece of advice I was wondering if it scales to larger parts? For example a 1/2" grip on a 3" part taking a 1.5" doc. Now I'm a bit afraid to run it!

[@Open_Eyes_Open_Heart]

@@hackish1 I always advocate for as much surface contact as I can get on my material/part.. then it's more about stick out (rigidity) half inch bite sounds fine for most vice applications for chuck applications that should be okay unless your diameter is bigger than say 6 inches. I try to use the 1:4/1:5 ratios for material sticking out vs material size or diameter without special support or tail stock

[@g.tucker8682]

Great education. I especially liked the adjustable parallels as outriggers. One of several takeaways for me. Thanks again.

[@AricScooby]

Awesome addition to the kit, Joe. Great job as always. Your tip about the adjustable parallels reminded me of the gent who introduced me to sheet metal. There was a part I couldn't produce because of limitations to the stroke/throat of the ram. As he moved the bottom bolster to the side, and re-installed the bottom die, he commented "If you can't raise the bridge, lower the river." Experience is worth gold, thanks for sharing yours 👍

I would go crazy spending that much setup time for such a dinky part. Amazing to watch. I know who to call if the hour hand on my watch needs replacing ;-)

[@cameronmccreary4758]

That's the way I also locate the rotary table, by checking to the spindle. Excellent technique! I keep watching and it doesn't get much better than that. As an aside, I've made plenty of miniature wrenches in my day. Heck, you can't buy the wrench you need these days and even if you can, much of the time the tolerances are out of spec.. I'm doing a set of miniature wrenches these days also. I am making these out of A2 tool steel; hard material but worth it.

[@joepie221]

Thicker stock wouldn't work. The extra parts would have to be inline.

[@lkw6640]

@@joepie221 I guess I should've been more specific. My thinking was to start with stock that is larger in width and height. It should be large enough in the Z axis to facilitate a slitting saw, the 2 wrenches, and a little extra on each wrench for cleanup. Make sure you have some reference so you can flip it over without losing it's position. Machine it just like you did, only deeper and leave tabs (full depth) on each end and on both sides (handle) of the wrenches for support when you slit it (After slitting, you should still have tabs on both wrenches). Flip it over to machine the other side details. Slit it. Use the original setup to put the details on each wrench in and cut the tabs deep enough to remove easily. A little hand finishing and you're done. What do you think? Do-able? Or am I completely off the reservation on this?

So seemingly simple and yet mind boggling in the practical application of the process ie alter the wrong setting at the wrong piont in the process and you have to start again, ugh
