Note: At the 3:00 minute mark I cut across the end moving the X-Axis which can be problematic if your part surfaces are not parallel and perpendicular. A safer approach for a new machinist would be to cut the ends by moving the Y-Axis. Of course, this would require that you reestablish the bevel size leaving room for error. Also, I should have put on a FR jacket when performing the cutting demo...

It is said that these acetylene torches are super dangerous !! What precautions do you take to work safetly? And which brands do you use for your torch, bottles etc?
Thanks bro!👌💯
Awesome tutorial brother! Hope y'all make shiny pieces!!
Thank you, I am happy you found it useful. Work Safe
Very good idea. Very nice work sir
I agree, they are an extremely useful tool.
Nice work. We shared this video on our homemade tool forum last week 😎
Thanks again. This little channel is slowly inching toward monetization. When that goal is reached all proceeds will enter an LCC Foundation account to be used to support Machine Trades students and shop purchases.
@@shopinstructor3980 I see that you have other homemade tool videos on your channel. You're welcome to join us if you want; we would give you a free forum membership and you could post your videos on our forum. We have many other YTers doing the same.
I would like the plans for this hammer. It will match the hammer I made 40 years ago
I am not computer savvy and was hopeful viewers would be able to pause the video and take a screenshot of the print. I think there is also a way I could link a shared google doc. in the description, but I need to make sure that wouldn't compromise my security first. Thank you
that srewing in the brass screw from the bottom is a great tip! never seen that before or occurred to me before. thanks!
I should have mentioned, that I learned this lesson the hard way.
@@shopinstructor3980 Lefty loosey...righty tighty🤣
nice i want one
I forgot to mention that you can find this project and 12 others at makeitfrommetal.com, 13 Practical Machining Projects for Students and Beginners. makeitfrommetal.com/13-practical-machining-projects-for-students-and-beginners/
Mantap om hasilnya 👍
I made one too. I still have it. Nice knurled job.
Very nice work sir
Thank you.
Really nice to se fully formed beautiful knurlings! Most knurlings I see here at youtube looks like shit.Theese looks really good! Well done!
Thank you. The straddle knurling tools are relatively forgiving.
I am no expert but it seems to me that the circumference of the piece to be knurled really needs to be some multiple of the repeat pattern of the knurling wheel otherwise it is inevitable that ghost repeats of the pattern will be developed. There is no way to get the first pass around the rod to create a deep enough impression to force the knurl to follow it second time around. I have not seen any knurl lessons say this but it seems to me to be what happens.
@@Hereford1642 You are correct. The straddle knurling tools do a better job at applying force to form the metal. Sometimes when the two diameters can't mesh correctly, the tool will "cut" material away. When that happens without flood coolant, you typically see a rough looking knurl.
I made a hammer just like this when I was in high school.
The print you see at the start of the video was redrawn by me using an old one. It is possible that you may have made this exact hammer 😀
Danke, gute Erklärung!
It looks like you have a numerical keypad on the DRO. Instead of setting the DRO to zero just enter the edge finder radius 0.250 then you don't need to move the table 0.250 and re-zero the DRO.
Very nice work sir. Very helpful thanks
🤘
Woodworkers are not welcome 😆

I bought a cutting torch set-up and with it was a "Universal Circle Burner". I said to myself "Man this will be nice to get some accuracy when torch cutting circles in steel" Boy was I wrong. Had a piece of 1/2" mild steel I needed to cut a 10" diameter in. I center punched, set the torch tip to the desired radius and went at it. Was going great halfway through when all of a sudden the pivoting head where the torch secured melted away. It was aluminum. Why would it be made with aluminum which has such a low melting point compared to steel. Anyway I am definitely making one of these.
What a bummer. I am glad you found this video to be helpful. I should have mentioned, that one of these could be made with a hand drill, angle grinder, and the torch you are making it for. I may do that video in the future?
Just found your channel and subscribed. Very nice work
'Speed Runs' are for video games. There is a difference between working efficiently and foolishly. Very poor showing from a "Shop Instructor"
I appreciate the concern, but I would like to point out that "speed run" was only a fun tongue in cheek title. Shop safety is priority #1 when operating dangerous equipment. Work Safe :)
Not really a poor showing when these videos are just to give the shop students an idea on what to do for the projects. these videos aren't meant to go into every little detail.
I appreciate your videos, but I wish you had more instructions on what you're doing as I'm just starting out in the industry. Curious, are you a community college instructor?
Yes, He is at Lower Columbia College. These are projects we do in the shop here.
Thank you this video was very helpful
I have found that although the method works , if the knee of the mill is moved up or down the reading will be compromised.
you caused a big issue with this tutorial straight away by using imperial
With a soft faced hammer, you should seat the work piece firmly on the parallels prior to milling.
Good catch. Thank you
This is the best video on threading I've ever seen, you are such a good instructor. I wish I had found this video a year ago when I was trying to teach myself to do this. I really hope your students appreciate you. I'm also so envious of how many large flat surfaces your lathe has on it; you could attach 3 or 4 magnetic dial gauges on there if you wanted to, and still have room for your cutting oil can!
Thank you so much for this straight forward instruction, which was presented without any annoying music mixed over it.
Please don't stop making videos
Get a co-axial dial indicator. It will pay for itself in the time saved alone.
I am so making one of these!
Thanks
Ive struggled for years trying to learn how to sweep a round. Always had ask for help, but i followed thus video and finally got it! Didnt even have to adjust the y axis, thank you!
Very well explained & instructions....
Nice work. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎
Thank you, glad you found it useful.
@@shopinstructor3980 You're very welcome. I believe we've featured your videos on our forum before too. Let me know if you want a free premium membership, and you can post your videos on the forum whenever you want. We have many YTers on board.
buff the chatter out , you will be on size ;-)
Hey thanks for the videos mate. Could you make something like this on a smaller hobbyist mill like a (HM-46B - Mill Drill ) I don't know anything about machining except from what Ive seen on UA-cam but im pretty keen to dive into it.
Not sure if the hobby mill would perform well in steel but I think it would be possible with Aluminum. Thanks for watching
I'm a machinist as well and that's what we always do before bolt circles. But when I was in school learning basic machining I learned to find center of a circle alot by edge finding the one side on the Y and 0 it out then move to opposite side edge find it and whatever your number is divide by 2 then you can repeat with x axis. If you do that would bolt patterns be accurate or is it always beat to indicate it when doing something like that?
You bring up a good question. In most cases an edge finder will work just fine. The main reason for me having students use a test indicator is to practice different operation. Thanks for the comment.
@@shopinstructor3980 ya I figured it would. I work at a tool and die shop so obviously precision is everything (as it always should be lol). I brought up the point of edge finding a circle instead of Indicating and the guy said it would never work. I'm sure it could as long as you are at the outer most part of the circle. But obviously indicating it would be more accurate. Thanks for the reply.
A dial indicator will always be more precise than an edge finder. An edge finder has 2 to 3 thousands error
2:22 scraping the granite table smh
LOL, it wasn't me.
Thank you.
Liked-Subscribed-Notfied. Thanks for putting the print up as part of the video!
Your welcome, I plan on going back and adding print videos for the other projects. Originally I only intended for my students to watch the videos.
@@shopinstructor3980 Thank You- once again! This is very helpful. I guess another way is to put a google drive together that can store them for people to download.
Opening a closed loop in a part shouldn't be the last operation.
I understand what you are getting at but it works fine in this application. The size of the part is small and the material is stabile. We see very little part deflection. Take care
Good work. We shared this video (and the others in the series) in our homemade tools forum this week :)
Thank you, I will have the clamp videos up soon.
@@shopinstructor3980 Sounds good. You can also drop a line at "jon" at our url anytime, and I'll set you up with a free membership on our forum so you can post your videos anytime you want.
I don’t think the video is too long. It very educational! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! In the future I plan on making shorter "Readers Digest" videos, people can use to freshen up the memory.
Very helpful video. What cutting tool are you using?
Thank you, I was using a 3/8 HSS tool blank. We usually purchase them from www.victornet.com They are not the best but the price is right for our program budget. Eventually I will get around to making tool grinding videos but until then I would recommend "This old Tony" or Joe Pieczynski.
Awesome, thank you for the reply@@shopinstructor3980
Nice work. We shared this video (and the preceding 5 parts) on our homemade tools forum this week :)
Excellent Video. Very well explained.
Thank you! Hopefully you will get to put the lesson to use soon.
