The Dos, Don'ts and If You Dares
Added 2024-12-06 01:19:44 +0000 UTCSorry for the delay! This week I'm taking on another one of those race car parts that should really be reserved for a CNC. But I like a good challenge. And somewhere the lathe got involved... maybe challenge isn't the right word for it 0_o
Enjoy!

Sorry I'm just seeing this. That's some hella resourcefulness! haha

2024-12-27 01:38:29 +0000 UTCYeah exactly. Haha yeah, evidently it is, not without its challenges though

2024-12-27 01:37:44 +0000 UTCLike the same kind of knuckles I did last year? It is possible!

2024-12-27 01:36:56 +0000 UTCsometimes i us a product called ACF-50 for rust inhibition, but generally i have no corrosion issues at all except if something sits int he puddle of water that sometimes leaks in from the outside haha

2024-12-27 01:36:23 +0000 UTCBoth. That was some damn nice manual machining.👍

2024-12-26 17:52:47 +0000 UTCLove always seeing new ways to do jobs. One thing I've always admired about your channel, how you show not only new ways of thinking about work holding and the machining process, but how you also go through the entire process and show the ups and downs of it all. I wish I could post pictures on here, i used the spindle and motor from my Taig mini mill and turned it into an er16 collet spindle tool post grinder for the lathe. I need to take a little more off of the d1 taper for my 5C collet chuck's backplate, I'm worried I'll take too much using insert tooling, and I'd rather grind it in anyways, soo worked through a project and now have a make shift tool post grinder :D

2024-12-14 22:40:35 +0000 UTCLove seeing you make parts for FSAE teams. I’m currently trying to get the FSUK team I’m a part of to manually machine the front steering knuckles, mainly just for the fun of it, but it’s not exactly going too well 😂

2024-12-13 09:35:20 +0000 UTC4:14 I know the shop is climate controlled, but is there a coating you can put on the face plate to keep it from rusting? 5:48 GET A FEELER GUAGE 8:12 I'm not sure exactly what happened here. But I like your approach: even if it's not a useful scrap, cutting out waste is usually faster than turning all of it to chips/sawdust.

2024-12-10 21:47:37 +0000 UTCOne of the best! (the program not my machining work 😜 )

2024-12-06 20:41:52 +0000 UTCHey Karim! The change is largely to expand the potential audience to those that may otherwise overlook an obviously machining related video (because they may be unaware of how cool it is 😉). The videos are generally more about the stories than the parts themselves anyway

2024-12-06 20:41:28 +0000 UTCGreat program they have at the college, and good on you for supporting them. Some nice machine work there!

2024-12-06 20:30:18 +0000 UTCi think i peaked haha
Brandon Sander
2024-12-06 20:19:28 +0000 UTCyou can never be too prepared... ive never read more than a couple pages but still. haha I think that 15th edition does actually.
Brandon Sander
2024-12-06 20:18:43 +0000 UTCThanks! Skill and masochism must be closely related haha
Brandon Sander
2024-12-06 20:17:37 +0000 UTCnever heard of it ;)
Brandon Sander
2024-12-06 20:17:07 +0000 UTCjust wait until you need it ;)

2024-12-06 20:15:13 +0000 UTCBrandon I've been meaning to ask. What is the reason behind the change in thumbnail style (as compared to the ones currently on "WANTED: Dead or a LIVE CENTER" and older)? IMO I find that the old style fit the channel logo and machining subject better.

2024-12-06 17:30:15 +0000 UTCLol your comedic relief in these videos just keeps getting better and better. I can only imagine how hhysterically your wife was laughing at your "one with the metal" bit 😂

2024-12-06 06:59:10 +0000 UTCTwo Machinery's Handbooks (Machineries' Handbook?) and a Pocket Ref? Making me all nostalgic. Is one old enough it still has blacksmithing information?
Michael Faragher
2024-12-06 06:58:40 +0000 UTCIt's always fun watching you do these videos that should be CNC parts. Takes some skill to figure all this out on a manual machine

2024-12-06 02:28:19 +0000 UTCVery inspirational. Though now I have to clean up my faceplate.
