Hey Boston Dan. My pleasure mate. It's really hard to get good video inside a VMC. I used to use my action camera, but it doesn't have good close ups. Now I open the side door, hang up a garbage bag with magnets, cut a slit in the bag and stick my $3K camera thorough the hole LOL. Somehow, it just doesn't seem right :-( Cheers, Aaron
Hey Rus. Thanks for following along buddy. Hey did you video the grips when you made them? If so post the link in the comments for others to watch bud. Hey, speaking of videos, when's your next vid coming out? You've had me and your followers hanging for the past couple of months lol. My friend and colleague (PM Customs) was telling that he found your channel and was watching with enthusiasm as you're Linux user. Cheers, Aaron.
Hey Aaron. I never did get around to making them, I should make that a priority. Yeah it's been ages since I've posted videos. I honestly never get into the shop anymore. I took my machines apart over 12 months ago when I moved from the basement shop into the smaller garage shop and although I have everything running, nothing is running great. I need to do a lot of wiring to get everything fixed, and I just can't get in the mood. My goal is to get my youtube channel back up and running this month or next month for sure though, so hopefully at that time I'll get back to cranking out videos.
Hi Jeff. Thanks mate, the Syil X7 been running a treat. So happy with that surface finish. It all comes down to good tooling, proper fixturing and a rigid machine. Thanks for watching Jeff. Cheers, Aaron.
G'day Steven, yes very happy with the Syil machine. I had her turned on for nearly 8 hours straight yesterday and she just runs faultlessly. Thank you, those parts came out looking trick. Cheers, Aaron.
Wow those came out awesome! Fantastic finish! Great job Aaron, hey I bet there was a bit of pucker when that first end mill came close to that shiny new vise....
Hey Paul. ha ha ha, you had pucker factor. The big boy nearly had diarrhoea running down his leg. I had only 0.8mm (003") clearance on that outside operation. Yes mate, the parts came out looking fantastic. Kevin did a good job of programming. Cheers, Aaron.
Hey Rob, thanks buddy. I made sure I pressed feedhold and opened the door to get that shot. I wanted to show everyone the amazing surface finish that I got on the Syil X7. She's been running like a dream :-). cheers mate, Aaron.
DCTTeacher1 love it, wish I could pull the trigger now lol. Just need to understand things like G54 etc, at the mo, I have no clue that that means lol.
That's ok Rob. Heaps of us here on the tube and the Facebook forum to help you. G54 is one of your work offsets. It tells the machine where you part is located in the Cartesian coordinates. There are 6 basic work offsets (G54, to G59). There are 48 others but I leave it at those for the time being.
Hey Jody. Always great to hear from you buddy. Thanks man, I try and get the camera close to the action. I've been opening the side door and hanging a garbage bag up with magnets. I cut a slit in the bag and stick the camera lens thorough that. Occasionally I get coolant on the lens, but I run a UV filter on the front so hopefully it doesn't get too smashed lol. Hey, when are you uploading some more 770 footage? Cheers, Aaron.
M1911 pistols (US Army original designation is M1911, with M1911A1 & M1911A2 variants over the years I believe) have a caliber of .45 ACP (.45 automatic Colt pistol). Milspec & non milspec versions have been in production for ~110 years with dozens of various brands & their particular enhancements & features. It's also quite possibly the most (re)produced pistol design ever created. General military use ended in the late 80's early 90's in favor the Beretta M9, although it's still available for special forces use(they choose weapons based on mission & can choose damn near anything). With all these manufactures you can get one in damn near every pistol caliber still in use today (if not _every_ pistol caliber still in use). Some companies offer conversion kits that include a barrel in the desired caliber, as well as magazines & different recoil springs that may be required for proper operation of the firearm when chambered in certain calibers other than .45ACP. It's an awesome firearm. (And by far my favorite to shoot)
Hey buddy, thanks for taking the time to supply all that information. To my knowledge they were .45 caliber, but a friend told me that they can come in a variety of calibers. So your detailed explanation solves that ;-). I've never held or fired a handgun before. They are very hard to own legally over here in Australia. Unfortunately, the criminals don't have problems getting hold of them though :-( Thanks again for watching and feedback. Cheers, Aaron.
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering not a problem, thanks for the videos!! Thanks for mentioning that criminals still have ready access to firearms, even in Australia where legal ownership is _so_ difficult. That's a point that is always brushed aside. If you get a chance to go shooting at a gun club or whatnot you definitely need to try a 1911! Someone will have one, that's for sure! Keep up the good work. I subbed after this video!
Hey buddy, thanks for subscribing I really appreciate it. Yes would love to go shooting at the range one day. I wanted to do in the USA (Vegas) when I was over there last year, but was too afraid of the powder residue just in case me or my luggage got swabbed at the airport. My friend over here is a licence shooter / hunter. He was reloading in the morning and got swabbed at the airport at lunchtime. He returned positive for ballistics residue and got held in detention (locked up) for over 3 hours. Missed his flights, the function and everything because of it. Idiocracy at it's finest ;-)
I was a boarding officer in the USCG when the powers that be decided to change to 9 mm Beretta pistols instead of the .45 caliber Colt model 1911. The 1911 is a much better piece of equipment in virtually every way in my opinion, especially stopping power. We were told the change to 9mm came to standardize ammunition for NATO countries. French Beretta lobbyists must have paid someone on the committee enough change to the 9 mm over the Colt .45. Everyone I worked with would have preferred we keep the .45 because our lives depended on it. But I digress. Good videos. One thing I have noticed, judging from the sound, the Syil spindle accelerates to desired RPM, and comes down to zero RPMs prior to tool change much more slowly than Haas machining centers. What method of spindle braking does the Syil use? Electrically with the drive motor, or a friction brake ? Take care
The spindle and cutters sound really good! Nice high pitch sound of aluminum in the cut. Cool pattern too, I just did something similar on another part just because it looks so cool :) I cheat when I do grip panels like these...I drill the holes from the "inside" first (along with some small light-weighting cuts) then I counterbore the holes by hand, then flip around and use aluminum screws to hold against a fixture. The outer cosmetics have to be high enough to avoid blowing those screw heads.
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering hey you're the man cutting grips into the quiet hours of the morning! I'm just sitting here trying to figure out how to teach a CNC class virtually... ugggh!
@@ydna Oh man I feel your pain. We opened up the workshop again to the high school students. Parent permission for them to attend and we have nurse take their temperature and sanitize. I'm over this FKN Shit mate!
Phase Converter 135 amp 208 V G’day mate. Yes this is the standard coolant pump that comes with the machine. They have a high flow / high pressure pump option. Oh, I did have the coolant taps cracked to 1/2 during filming, as I had my $2.5K Sony camera poking through a garbage bag with the side door open hahaha. Cheers, Aaron
14:30 Why does everyone stop their videos before the part is actually finished!? How do you A) Flip the Part and B) Remove the part from the block? I know it seems simple but I wouldn't be watching your videos if I already knew how to do that. Please do a video, I don't even care if it's sped up, of you flipping the part, re-locating and it and removing the part from the block. I NEED TO SEE THIS
Hi Brian. The finished part was actually held down to the fixture plate via 2 x mild steel machine screws. The work offset remand the same (fixture plate), as the part was located by the holes. I don't do that much fixture plate work anymore, as I tend just to order thicker stock and buzz the hat off. Do you have a particular project in mind that you would like me to demonstrate? Or would you prefer that I do a video series on how to? Some ideas would be awesome. Cheers, Aaron
The holes on the bottom side of the part are counterbored so holding it by the screw holes might be a bit difficult. I suspect that soft jaws milled would hold it just well enough. The flat edge on the sides is only like 0.060" though, a bunch of tiny hex clamps might be a way to fixture it, with the locations for them parallel to the angle on the flat sides of course, and possibly sunk into the fixture plate so only 0.055" contact or so. Hex fixture clamps usually kind of suck but every now and then there's a long flat edge that can be used with a bunch of them. I wouldn't machine a perfect negative of the part into the soft jaws though, clearance means less machining time and more flexibility if you want to change the part finish/geometry or toolpath. I don't have a vacuum plate personally, but if it holds better than soft jaws (mill the soft jaws down closer to the center of the vise jaw vertically so you don't get the jaws flexing out away from the part) then the vacuum plate would be a no-brainer. Perfect part relief into a vacuum fixture if you can figure out the seal for it would be amazing holding-force wise. Or you could do the counterbores in a different operation entirely, but the journey would be great experience in fixturing. You could try ID expansion clamps on the bottom side of the hole if you can find them or make them small enough and with enough clearance to finish the top side of the hole, but it might be difficult squeezing enough force into that small area to hold the part for milling without breaking it. Lots of options!
@@multiHappyHacker Or.... just the way he demonstrated. The CB on the back matters not really. If he wanted to ensure no screw flex, he could have done the fixture plate with bosses to fit in the CB. obviously there wasn't an issue, so that too is irrelevant. If I could offer any criticism at all, it would be on not doing both panels at the same time from a single piece of stock. That would just be for the sake of loading time and that would only matter if he were making a run of them, not just a single set. This would have allowed him to not have the misshap with the non symmetrical bolt pattern. All in all, the method used was probably optimal for the quantity made. Nice work.
Those look GREAT Aaron! I've been looking forward to this since Mechanical Advantage put out his video last week. Clever work holding, super handy as I've always told myself I'm gonna make a set of 1911 grips just because (we all have 2 or 3 here in america ;) ) the setups are good stuff because they're a little deceptively tricky. Jason at Sand Hill CNC did a set of these a while back too, if you haven't seen his video. What are you gonna do with these?
Hey Jeff, how's it going mate? Thanks buddy, I'm really happy with the finish as they came out looking trick. I don't own a gun over here in Australia, so I was going to ship them to Kevin in the USA. It was a great collaboration project. Morgan's CAD file, Kevin's CAM application and all the big boy had to do was machine the little suckers. Now, I'm just waiting for the cops to kick my door down to arrest me under the firearms act ha ha ha ha. Hey, we are all waiting for your next video upload too. Cheers, Aaron.
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering Great work Aaron! The grips look sensational. As the grips are not classified as an integral part of the firearm, you do not require a firearms license or armorers license to manufacture or be in possession of them. As an example, you could go into a gun store and purchase a set without issue.
@@ProjectBretto Thanks buddy. I was totally shitting myself making these grips, as I was really worried about possible legal ramifications. Thanks for the heads up though, much appreciated ;-)

G'day Flexy. It was 15 mins, but then I got it down to 13 mins. It still has lots of room for improvement. Needed to up the RPM and feedrate even more, as it felt "forever". Have good one. Aaron.
Nice Machine Sound! Sometimes in your Tool´s are chips! Can you program in your Controller or in Fusion a littel Time M4 rotation very fast before you or the machine himself change the tool ? If you can do that the Result was the chips fly away.
Hi Stephan. That's a very good tip mate. So M04 (anticlockwise) and that will assist to remove any sticky chips before replacing the tool. Very cool mate. Cheers, Aaron.
Getting coolant up into the smaller ER collet holders matters on my machine! Keep the coolant from blasting up into the collet and you will have better holding force and results. Lots of chatter from poor gripping force on small ER holders too.
G'day MHH. I've never had that problem before. Even when using through spindle cooling on other machine. Thanks for watching and providing feedback. :-)

G'day Bret. Thanks mate, I'm very happy with the finish straight off the tool. How's your Tormach going mate? I haven't seen a video upload for a while :-) Cheers buddy, Aaron.
Well done they look mint 👌👌
Hey Charlie, how's it going mate? Thanks buddy I'm really happy with the way they came out. Hope your machine is going well? Cheers, Aaron.
Would like to see more mill-turn tutorials.
MySchizo Buddy Thanks mate. Got a new video coming soon. I have another channel (manual machining) called Aaron Engineering 🍻
Great stuff!!!
How long have you had those shirts????
Thanks for the link to Morgan! I've followed him for a long time on IG, but I didn't realize that he has a YT channel. Subbed. :)
Hey Mike. My darling wife made it for me when she was away on holidays recently. It looks on the big boy on the big screen ha ha ha. Yeah Morgan is a great guy and post lots of content on Instagram. Thanks for subbing to his channel. Hopefully other will support him on both platforms too ;-). Off to breakfast now. Have a good day mate. Cheers, Aaron.
Nice! It came out really sweet. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a T-shirt sale somewhere. :)

@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering Thank you
You’re very welcome. Happy holidays
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering You too brother.Does you sell it them in usa?
Colt 45 is the clue.
Hey buddy how's it going. Thanks for that, but I think they can come in a variety of calibers. I said Colt 45 in my video, but I should have said Colt 1911. You know us Aussies ha ha ha. Hey, I'm having withdrawal symptoms here, when is your next UMC10 video coming out? Cheers, Aaron.
Hey CncObsession. You can get 1911s in other calibers too.
