Using a fly cutter and jigs on a Bridgport mill to surface flat parts. Minnesota Implement.
A video of set-up and use of jig templates and a fly cutter on a Bridgport mill.
Yes, I know, no safty glasses, I took them off to set up the camera and then forgot to put them back on for the video.
The point of view of the camera kinda makes it look like my hands are close to the tooling. That part is 10 inch wide by 16 inch long.. my hands were never closer than about a foot from the tool. But even I flinched when watching the video. 😒

An updated on this. It ended up being the AFM system... the 4 cylinder /8 cylinder system that cuts out the intake valves. I purchased a $40 electric module from Amazon, and it solved the rattleing problem... I can still hear some minor noise in the engine, so I likely already caused some permanent damage, but at least it's driveable now .

    • @martinnorbeck4657
      @martinnorbeck4657 19 годин тому

      He was describing conventional. The insert or primary cutting edge goes into the the material head on. in climb cutting it is opposite to eliminate chatter in the backlash of the feed screw. Where as the tool would tend to pull the work in instead of pushing the work away. Learned about that when I tried a big mill cutter in my lathe. I bought a mill and made a couple fly cutters that would hold 3/8 in square insert type carbide lathe tools. Easy to make and worked well on Aluminum and Steel. Many different fly cutter configurations. This guy uses his mill every day and knows from experience what works. Safety is always a consideration. Metal flys when you are fly cutting.

      No….no it wouldn’t. Those annular cutters are better metal, have flutes for chip evacuation and don’t chatter and cut a way more accurate hole. If you’re drilling that thick of steel with a damn hole saw at least drill a damn hole on the periphery of the saws cutting area for the chips to fall out.

      I was confused by this too. If there was "carbon chunks" in there it would be graphite, which breaks apart really easy (think of a pencil lead) and acts even lubricating, and I doubt it would have been diamond. Might be more like chips getting trapped in the slot and binding up the cutter. A36 is also a common structural steel with only little carbon content.

    i like the straight to the point style videos. Even with the background noise. You act like you care about getting the job done and not just being there for the money. Lots of guys would just bust up tools with the attitude that the company will just buy more. Also like all the tips on how to avoid work hardening the cut and running it slow. I see these cutter sets from China, India, Pakistan being sold and now I will have to try them. Thanks for you time and effort. The tip about the weld seam on the inside of the box tube is noteworthy as well. Once you bust thru the top of the box you might think you are in, but that hard seam might surprise you. Overall great tips.

      It really depends on your skill level and shop tools that you have. I know alot of folks will do a Unibody build, but I tend to prefer to start with a full frame, like an S10 or cutlass frame, and then build the body shell onto that... I tend to treat the structure and the body as 2 separate parts until theu are mated.

      We have looked at building the screw style log splitter in the past. It's a surge-trend market. They become popular for a year or 2, and then fall out of favor for another 3 yo 4 years, until the trend starts again. Typically, the demand years for them, is also the demand years for our tree pullers, so while we were in a small shop, it was not a viable plan to add more to that seasonal build. We may visit those products again now that we are in a larger shop.

The Metabo W9 and W11 are similar, but not near as good of quality. I have burned up 4 of the W9 and 2 W11 in the same time that this grinder has kept going... nothing is as good as it used to be. But Metabo is still one of the few with the slip clutch. Dewalt has a slip clutch in their battery operated grinder, not sure if they have it in the corded ones as well or not.
