THIS is what being a machinist is all about: You needed something, so you made it. And though you hit a few snags, you used your skills to fix them and move on. Great work, Em. Always happy to see your quality builds.
You like me have learned so much in our machine journey. But it’s the failures that teach the most and endure the longest. They are gold. You took on a real job and made a go of it. You lifted the standard of what’s possible in our own shops and I for one will pin the name plate of legend on you. Remember the tool room lathe, the precise milling machine, the super grinders, the planers all predate CNC. I program and run CNC machines but my shop is old school. I know what’s possible and it takes re-learning what our fathers and grandfathers knew. We fail along the way but we don’t quit. You never quit! At the end you stand behind a six jaw chuck and the world stands humbled in your presence. Keep it up pal!!!!
Ты просто образец выдержки и трудолюбия! А стремление к совершенству вызывает неподдельное уважение! Благодарю за твой труд и за видео, снять которое не меньший труд. Успехов тебе, терпения и вдохновения для новых и новых проектов! Молодец, так держать!
A spectacular result! You are both talented and fearless in the projects that you do. Keep doing them and please keep making these videos for our collective education, inspiration and enjoyment. Best wishes for 2022.
Most makers for toolfest: "Coathanger? Screw extractor?" Cà Lem: "I know! A 'collet chuck holder' repeatable to 10 microns!" You're amazing, mate! Wishing you an equally amazing 2022 and maybe a contract with NASA!
Cà Lem: making other Metalworkers feel inadequate since 2017. Seriously though, great Job. My Teacher/Master in trade school was a certified master craftsman in 3 different metal related trades, but i am not sure if he could have done such a fine job. Keep it up!
Gday Cà Lem, the results in my opinion are absolutely outstanding, you have done a beautiful job, please don’t be hard on yourself mate, to build a six jaw chuck is a massive achievement and you should be extremely proud of yourself, your talent is amazing, you are a true craftsman’s mate, thank you very much for sharing, from all my family we wish you and all your family all the very best for 2022, Cheers Matty, Bec, Trent and Toby…

Thank you very much Matty My best wishes to your family too 😘
From another Australian - I've seen a few of your projects and been amazed at what you get done. *This is your best yet. Its just stunning how well done this is.* Your attention to detail is humbling. On could have done it better? Buddy most of us can't do this at all. Its why we have to buy them and unless we have saved a lot of money can't afford ones this good.
I took up this fascinating career and started out, obviously, making a 1-jaw chuck. I could never quite get it to work, I guess I was missing something, never completed it and so had to go back to my old job as a political adviser.
Machinists: l need a 6 jaw chuck... Cà Lem: Hold my beer... That is an absolutely amazing piece of work. To design it is incredible, to come up with a way to make your design, the fixturing involved and the thought process to bring what you saw in your head to life are what set you apart from other machinists. Very well done!
i bet your parents, and every teacher you ever had, feel proud af of their accomplishment in you. you are a credit to humanity, thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Mind blown. This really gives you an appreciation of why a high quality commercial chuck costs so much. Even assuming most of it isn't done by hand, there's so many steps and so much precision is needed.
You have now turned machining into an art! To see that parting line dissappear when you tightened the two halves together.... just magical! Thanks for sharing your talent and craft with us, Cheers
All projects have errors, this was quite the ambitious project. Extremely nicely done with fantastic results. Thank you for sharing this with us. Just think of the scrap pile that Bison or Buck chucks have out back at there factory’s. LOL. Beautiful job.
When you think your disappointed with your result try to find a video of someone else making a better 6 jaw vice then you just made. There are no videos of anyone else doing that because it is a very impressive thing to do and you are one of those guys I wish I could have teach me more about machining.
This exactly. Good job, Calem! Nobody can perfectly execute every ambitious project on the first try. And the result is still very good-especially as the runout is consistently repeatable.
And with the tools he has that can be defined as basic for such a task and results! No CNC, DIY fixtures, gadgets, heat treatment. What an achievement.
What an awesome display of engineering! I'm an engineer so I can truly say that! Failing some parts meant that you learned. A lot of people are afraid to fail but it's the way we learn and progress. If you don't make a single failure in a project then you learned nothing new. It's really as simple as that. With time you make less failures simply because your skill and experience progresses, but I'm almost 50 years old now and I still make failures from now and then and that only means that I've still got a lot to learn when trying to make new things! Making your own tools is the best thing a machinist can do because then you'll treat your tools with a lot of respect down the line, remembering the hours and effort you put into making them. This chuck is one such tool to be proud of! I would certainly be proud if I made one of them with the quality and finish you did! Have a prosperous new year! :)
With so many set ups, jigs, process... The work you have done on this is amazing. Where others answer to wanting 6 jaw is money, your answer is BUILD IT and be richer for it (in knowledge & savings)!
Unreal, your patience to take on a project like this is an art. The time to make a 6,4, or 3 jaw chuck to any level especially to your standards is outstanding. Well done. Dont be hard on yourself it can lead to self destruction.
1. Chucks are incredibly hard to make, and the more jaws the harder they are to make 2. No one in their right mind would attempt one, or expect it to be nearly perfect the first time. 3. You made a gorgeous, high precision 6 jaw chuck. 4. You are amazing! Happy and safe new year to you!
Cà Lem, your chuck project is easily the most impressive thing I’ve seen in 2021. Thank you for documenting it so well. Your work is an inspiration! Happy New Year, my amazing friend.
Not happy with the result? PLEASEEE!!!! That's some of the best work I've seen on youtube and I doubt you could buy anything better for any price. GREAT JOB!
I love all the fixturing and setups. Very good to see how you cut the teeth on the back of the jaw carriers. I need to make some custom soft-jaw carriers for one of my chucks. Seeing how you did it has inspired me to give it a try.
Парень у тебя золотые руки, я восхищаюсь твоей работой, это лучший канал на ютубе. Ничего подобного я не видел в домашней мастерской! Спасибо за видео!
Ah, Cà Lem, I've never seen such craftsmanship, expertise, skill and INGENUITY in one place ever !!! Your closing title is ALMOST correct. Yes "continuous improvement" is how we should all go forward, so perhaps you're right to say "could have done it better". HOWEVER I think you CAN BE VERY HAPPY with the existing result, it's a great achievement and a beautiful creation, and without YOU it would all still be stock steel and scraps in the warehouse !!!
I can't even count how many channels I'm currently subscribed to but you have one of the few channels where I actually watch all the videos. Fantastic content =) I work as a CNC-machinist myself making prototypes all day long ranging from small parts used in the medical field to big welded constructions that needs some finished machining in all sorts of different materials. Your attention to detail is superb. If you ever need anything made, hit me up and I'll see what I can do.
Some people complaint or get too exquisite by comparing tool brands, etc. The master makes his own tools and stop whining. You are not even satisfied and achieved a precision of 0.01mm!!! (or 0.39 thou for those in the world using that old unit of measure) I am very impressed with what you achieved man. Simply wow.
Awesome job, really something to be proud of. Thank you for the upload, always a pleasure to watch your videos. Wishing you and all your loved ones a very happy, prosperous and safe 2022. All the best.👍
I am thoroughly blown away by the attention to detail holy smokes! That chuck is an absolute work of art and a joy to watch being created. If I could be even 10% as good a machinist as you I'd be set for life :D
You are a true inspiration. The things you are able to create without the assistance of CNC equipment. I wish you and your loved ones peace, joy and health in the coming year.
Awesome work man. It was a lot of work with all the setup tools that you needed to make. Maybe you think you could have done better, it is still awesome work. Look at the progress you have made in a short time. Every project will be better then the last. Not sure if we ever find perfection. There is always something to improve. Just keep going and hope you have a happy new year!!
Never give up. As more hard to make , more we learn and stay more close to perfection. This is the Better part from the job. Wonderfull tool. Big Hug from Brasil !
Pretty awesome to make a scrolling chuck with less than .0005" runout! I'm not sure there is much of a point in pursuing less, because we have non-scrolling chucks for that purpose ;-)
Your last comment shows your attitude. A confidence that you are capable of higher precision and for some reason the first part actually messed up n a little more grinding after tempering while i believe just a 0.01mm of deviance in itself is an astounding level of precision. Awesome craftsmanship.
Cà Lem, thank you so much for continuing to do these videos! Thank you! You are so amazing! 400 to 500 millionths runout is nothing to complain about. I think that is absolutely stunning! A lot of off the shelf 6 jaw chucks are not that good. I really admire what you do and you never fail to impress me (and many others). Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and your younger brother! :)
You are an amazing human being and absolutely brilliant machinist. Your videos have inspired me to not only be a better machinist but to also pay better attention to finish and accuracy. Best wishes to you in your life.
Superb as always Ca Lem! It is a beautiful, incredibly functional piece of jewellery that I'm sure you'll get hundreds of hours of use out of. Happy New Year to you and best wishes for 2022
It's an alltime pleasure to look, what you're doing in your shop. I don't think, that's possible to make it much better. Keep cool. It's amazing and we love this stuff. 😉
That is a work of art, I take my hat off for you. This video was soo fun to watch keep up the good work and hope to maybe one day we see a drill press build ;)
I've seen a few of your projects and been amazed at what you get done. *This is your best yet. Its just stunning how well done this is.* Your attention to detail is humbling.
10 million views for what it was a waste of time and money he could have bought a new one quite cheap and use his time for other projects!!! Time is too precious to waste it like that:-((
@@johnhili8664 like you said, you wasted 30 minutes watching a video like this, why should you spend years going to school just to understand how machines and things work. This video is intended as a guide to see how to do it
@@johnhili8664 I and almost people on the world will never trying to buy time cause we know how to use it. We never regret after watching great videos and say good words to motivate someone. But you, you don't understand how to recognize talented and why people do. Spent 30mins then said wasted time 😂
OK. If you can do it, I can try to do it. I'm going to start simple though and work my way up to a 6 jaw. I'm going to start with a one jaw. If that works and holds stuff well, then I'll try a 2 jaw.
2 роки тому+1
Man, one jaw will work perfect. Believe me, i already did it.
That turned out AMAZING!!! You, my friend, have a gift! The fact that you have both natural talent, plus the work ethic and determination to overcome problems and set backs makes you one in a billion!! Keep up the great work, and thank you for sharing your talents with the 🌎!
This requires a lot of patience, almost every workpiece needs to be made first clamping tools, I'm sure I don't have such a good mentality at the moment - you are my role model, thank you for your video
Great video series. Machining and engineering are very entertaining. The math on this, especially with the different radii needed to mill, is just staggering. The tool maker's tool maker!
Despite the mistakes, the reworks, the scrapped parts, and any other problems the end result is still a beautiful tool with excellent repeatability. Of course, it's always important to strive for something and being able to learn from this might be worth more than the tool itself.
Considering the scope of this project just a couple steps back was amazing, beautiful job and here is wishing you and your family a happy, prosperous and healthy 2022!! Thanks again!
It’s beautiful 😭. Manual machining YT’ers, take note. THIS is how you create content. No talk about sponsors for 99% of the video. My dude is out here making precision parts👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤘🏻
This chuck has to be the best thing I've seen made on any machinist channel on UA-cam. It looks magnificent and factory made. I don't want to even know how many hours you have invested in designing and building it. You set the standard for other machinist channels on UA-cam. Well done isn't strong enough. Spectacular is much better!
The spiral scroll gear was amazing. I haven’t seen or heard of anyone making one from scratch. There are a few that made chuck but repurposed an old spiral scroll gear from a junk chuck. Thanks for sharing.
Wow!!! Absolutely amazing craftsmanship! It would be a huge challenge for me just to build a rough working model of 3-jaw chuck out of wood… to watch you completely create a finely machined 6-jaw steel chuck from scratch, with all the interworking components, smooth operation, precise pieces & accurate movement with less then 0.01 runout is an amazing accomplishment and true testament to your exceptional level of talent & skills!! Awesome work!!!
I am literally speechless at your skills and you've ended up with a more accurate chuck than 90% of respectable manufacturers. You're already at a Machining Genius status so only the Gods know what you'll be like when you're close to retiring age. Most Compliments don't even come close to sounding correct for you, but a simple well done will have to suffice. These two video's are the first I've seen and I'll no doubt love all the rest too.🙂
I see Ca Lem and I'm watching! Mistakes..... I'm getting senile. Although I'm andex toolmaker I mostly work in wood these days. Measure twice, cut once has degenerated into measure over and over while the sawdust builds up😬 Man you are hard on yourself. The pursuit of perfection is one thing, excellence another. Excellence is satisfying, perfection is deadly because it is unattainable. You do EXCELLENT work. I'd love for you to find satisfaction in that.
This is completely ridiculous - Well done, thanks for sharing!
My favourite has to be the fixture for milling the teeth of the jaws.
There you go Stefan, next time you need a 6 jaw, just make it.
Ya at your shop rate what will it cost???
I learned a lot form both of you guys, nice to found you at here.
Praise from Stefan, indicates you have created something of significance. Congrats! Keep up the awesome work!
When I grow up, I want to be just like you.
THIS is what being a machinist is all about: You needed something, so you made it. And though you hit a few snags, you used your skills to fix them and move on. Great work, Em. Always happy to see your quality builds.
I would consider this beyond machinist territory. This is high end toolmaker level in my eyes and I am one!
You like me have learned so much in our machine journey. But it’s the failures that teach the most and endure the longest. They are gold. You took on a real job and made a go of it.

Oh, you're the cheeky one. Guys! I found the cheeky one!
**chuckles**
I'll collaborate with you, oh wait. Canada post will cos a fortune between Ontario and you (Alberta/Saskatchewan?). Maybe set it up with T.O.T.

Fantastic engineering, remember people, he doesn't need to show his mistakes but he does so we can learn from them 👍🏴
Hands down one of the best tool makers on UA-cam.
You have now turned machining into an art! To see that parting line dissappear when you tightened the two halves together.... just magical!
Thanks for sharing your talent and craft with us,

The kind of precision most chuck manufacturers can only dream of, well done young master.
Yep. Many known brands hope they achieve 0.02 to 0.03mm (1thou).But him.. 0.01!!!
You repeatedly show me what CAN be done without having every type of tool in your shop. Incredibly inspiring!
1. Chucks are incredibly hard to make, and the more jaws the harder they are to make
2. No one in their right mind would attempt one, or expect it to be nearly perfect the first time.

Not happy with the result? PLEASEEE!!!! That's some of the best work I've seen on youtube and I doubt you could buy anything better for any price. GREAT JOB!
You've made a serious piece of equiment. You sir, play in the Masters' league. A real pleasure watching you making these parts.
Amazing work! The result is gorgeous.Always appreciate seeing where things went wrong and hopefully avoid the same situations,
When you pay attention to detail, not being happy with your work is common.

But you, you don't understand how to recognize talented and why people do. Spent 30mins then said wasted time 😂
OK. If you can do it, I can try to do it.
I'm going to start simple though and work my way up to a 6 jaw.
I'm going to start with a one jaw.
If that works and holds stuff well, then I'll try a 2 jaw.
Man, one jaw will work perfect. Believe me, i already did it.
Damn! You know what you are doing, total respect from a turning/milling machinist from Switzerland
That turned out AMAZING!!! You, my friend, have a gift! The fact that you have both natural talent, plus the work ethic and determination to overcome problems and set backs makes you one in a billion!!
Keep up the great work, and thank you for sharing your talents with the 🌎!
This requires a lot of patience, almost every workpiece needs to be made first clamping tools, I'm sure I don't have such a good mentality at the moment - you are my role model, thank you for your video
You are an extremely clever, but more importantly, very determined young man - well done, impressive work.

I'll never complain about the cost of a chuck again! This was an awesome follow up to the first video! Thank you for sharing and wow what great work!
Great video series. Machining and engineering are very entertaining. The math on this, especially with the different radii needed to mill, is just staggering. The tool maker's tool maker!
Despite the mistakes, the reworks, the scrapped parts, and any other problems the end result is still a beautiful tool with excellent repeatability.
Of course, it's always important to strive for something and being able to learn from this might be worth more than the tool itself.
To make chuck from scratch with that runout is quite an accomplishment! Well done!
Considering the scope of this project just a couple steps back was amazing, beautiful job and here is wishing you and your family a happy, prosperous and healthy 2022!! Thanks again!
It’s beautiful 😭. Manual machining YT’ers, take note. THIS is how you create content. No talk about sponsors for 99% of the video. My dude is out here making precision parts👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤘🏻
You are more than a machinist my friend....what you create is sculpture.
That is alot of woork, and both skills and the correct tools are needed. nice job.
This chuck has to be the best thing I've seen made on any machinist channel on UA-cam. It looks magnificent and factory made. I don't want to even know how many hours you have invested in designing and building it.
You set the standard for other machinist channels on UA-cam.
Well done isn't strong enough. Spectacular is much better!
The spiral scroll gear was amazing. I haven’t seen or heard of anyone making one from scratch. There are a few that made chuck but repurposed an old spiral scroll gear from a junk chuck. Thanks for sharing.

Happy new year! Thank you for all the lessons; I'll have to watch both of these again.
Design. Execution. Workmanship. Setups. Jigs. Tools. Skill.
A M A Z I N G!!!
Absolutely beautiful project! Thanks for sharing your awesome craftsmanship!
Beautiful! Really gives an appreciation of just how much work goes into something like a chuck. Thank you!
Likely the most impressive and beautiful machining video I've ever seen.
Wow!!! Absolutely amazing craftsmanship! It would be a huge challenge for me just to build a rough working model of 3-jaw chuck out of wood… to watch you completely create a finely machined 6-jaw steel chuck from scratch, with all the interworking components, smooth operation, precise pieces & accurate movement with less then 0.01 runout is an amazing accomplishment and true testament to your exceptional level of talent & skills!! Awesome work!!!
I am literally speechless at your skills and you've ended up with a more accurate chuck than 90% of respectable manufacturers. You're already at a Machining Genius status so only the Gods know what you'll be like when you're close to retiring age. Most Compliments don't even come close to sounding correct for you, but a simple well done will have to suffice.
These two video's are the first I've seen and I'll no doubt love all the rest too.🙂
That’s a true machinist! Great work, your videos are so inspiring and soothing. Thank you
I don't believe my eyes. This is super impressive. You really have dedication and bravery and skill.
I see Ca Lem and I'm watching! Mistakes..... I'm getting senile. Although I'm andex toolmaker I mostly work in wood these days. Measure twice, cut once has degenerated into measure over and over while the sawdust builds up😬
Man you are hard on yourself. The pursuit of perfection is one thing, excellence another. Excellence is satisfying, perfection is deadly because it is unattainable. You do EXCELLENT work. I'd love for you to find satisfaction in that.
