I had the privilege of learning these things from my late father who was a tool and die maker. I have made quite a few taps to cut bastard threads from old drill bits. When I go to a machinery auction I often buy a 5 gallon bucket full of broken or rusty drill bits for not much more than scrap price for such projects. If I may. Please exercise care when working around a lathe or milling machine with synthetic fiber shirts, and any long sleeve shirts. The synthetic material will stretch and not tear like cotton, dragging you into the machine.
Really awesome work, that drill is crazy tough. Looks like the flute angle is about 45 degrees, which (I think) gives the highest torsional stiffness. I didn't notice any taper applied while the flutes were being cut; often times the tool-maker will reduce the depth of flutes the closer to the shank in order to increase longitudinal strength and stiffness, and give unbroken chips a better exit (although it can pinch Chip's exit as the drill goes deeper). Really fascinating watching your work. I like the use of the grinder/ball-mill coupled with lathe. Nice to see you covering the ways whilst the grinder is running (that nasty aluminum oxide accelerates wear on surfaces it lands on). I'm now one of your many subscribers!
When i was serving my time as a toolmaker in the early sixties we where taught to make small tools as well as the larger press tools but tools are so cheap and plentiful today that special cutters of all sorts are only made by a dedicated few who wish to keep the skills alive great to see.

To Mastermind: Good to see that you are able to use your nice lace. This makes Kraftsmen like me jealous- I would love to have a machine like yours. Good on ya that you know to use your hands, and have the surrounding to do so, nice work! To the guys shaking their heads and moaning all that work for just..... What if its a Friday in Europe and your drillbits cracks- no matter how you try- there is no spare you can get hold of- what so ever. So you gotta choice: Invest all that work but you can finish an urgent job on this weekend, or give up and tell them and yourself there was nothing you could have done to get it done? Thumbs up!
It's really quite a beautiful product in the end, having and demonstrating this art is not only honors your late father, but also is at the heart of what it is to be a machinist/tool-maker (rather than a consumer who has no choice but MUST buy from someone else).
Please continue sir, and please ignore the haters...some have no value in the fact that this whole thing...your presentation, and the positive comments contain all thats needed for others to learn almost everything in a safe creation that yelds repeat-use tools of high quality.
I hope the rest of the friends will understand the issue in this simple way and not just look for the economic cost and economic measurement thanks my friend🙏🙏🙏🙏👍
Hey there. Excellent job on everything. So, aside from the satisfaction you get from creating these, my guess is that they'd be cheaper to just go buy them? Don't get me wrong, if I had a lathe, I'd never buy a nut, bolt, screw, cabinet handles, etc. Basically, anything you could dish out of a chunk of metal, I'd at least attempt making it first. With that said, it wouldn't progress beyond a hobby. Having the skill YOU have, makes YOUR time on a mill or lathe, worth much more than mine would. Thanks for sharing this with us. Subbing right now.
I like the home made tools, and repairs that were made...i would bet they are of higher quality than what can be found commercially...some shod consider the performance, and we talking repeatable performance...this should draw cudos...especially liked the DIY heat treatment...good job!
To harden tool steel again it has to be specifically at a certain temperature, cherry red heat, and annealed at a straw coloured heat! I do it this way regular! - I was taught as an Apprentice Engineer under a toolmaker.
It would be nice to see you check the dimensions of the HOLES! Because I know the holes are not even close to the dimensions they are supposed to be. Just one of the drills you made, when you used it to drill out the center of the steel, flexed a 100 thou when it contacted the work surface.
Tf! Ofcourse the bit is breaking when your workpiece is sliding around secure your goddamn workpiece and the problem is solved!!! But this pretty nice tool!
Good job but it cost you more to make that than to buy it but at least your skilled enough to do it!! 1/4 turn forward and 1/2 a turn back works best when hand tapping. I'm sore there's more drag on that bit than a regular tap that's been form ground with the proper relief angles.. Nice video Bro!!
Well done my friend, good job but there is too much cutting on the drill bit quite simply because you should not sharpen with the grindstone starting from the back of the lip towards the front, you have to do the opposite, start from the front and with a slight rotation finish at the back of the lip just so as not to make heeled the cup, sorry for my English but I am French.
Like it came from the store. I unfortunately do not own an acetylebne torch to heat the drill bit that hot. They pulled MAPP gas off the market so it makes it difficult.
should make a drillbit holder that engages the spiral so you can very accurately grind it and not grind too far and ruin the cutting edge with low grit sandpaper belt i always grinded my drills, i would adjust the metal plate accordingly to a plate i had grinded at the right angle, i could grind many drillbits in very short time with about 90-95% success rate if its totally messed up i would insert in hand-drill and counter-clockwise grind it on the belt then take it out and grind it flat, remove the excess metal on the backside i prefer to leave the finish with a very flat grinding rather than rounded, it seems stronger but it can be hard to guesstimate the attachments where you do a swinging motion and press drill into the grinding mechanic sucks compared to doing by hand- because you have little control and drillbits vary in lenght so its impractical. we need something thats adjustable easily. biggest obstacle is not grinding the drillbit too far and making it the same as when you grind it using a hand drill
It is true, my friend, but the purpose of making and making this tool is something else, which you will understand if you read the comments of other friends
Before placing the thermal bricks, the inside is also heated, and then I heat the outside so that the heat inside disappears later, and it is almost efficient, my good friend.
Another case for you: I need a tap for repairing a stripped thread, for example, M16, 5. Pitch 2mm. Where can I order one, what are the delivery times, and how much will it cost?
مته را نباید حرارت بدهی،آلیاژش ضعیف میشه و هنگام چرخیدن،لبه ها زود کُل میشه.اگر در تصویر میبینی که کُل نمیشه بخاطر اینه که بادست میچرخوندش و دور پایین هس،ولی اگر با دریل،حتی بادور پایین دریل بچرخه،زود لبه کُل میشه

@@markrainford1219 That’s a good point haha. But even though it’s a $5.00 tool, it’s still very good practice, especially if you want to make a custom size.
But, maybe it's a Friday night, to live in No-Corners, Nevada, and need an 8 mm x 1.25 mm tap, or your car wont be running any time soon... THAT $5.00 tap is no $5.00 tap, it's a lifesaver,... or, you live in das kleine waschbärheim, Bayern, and you have to have a 1/2" x 13 tap to get your combine harvester running before tomorrow's rain...

Yes, thanks👍👍👍
This is a brilliant system for making a helical flute tap! Do you temper the hardened finished Tap, or use it dead hard? Chris B.
It will definitely relief and temper and then it can be used, my friend, and I understand, unfortunately, I did not put this in the video
Impressive which can be implemented in other areas.
Absolutely stunningly beautiful art
Thank you so much🙏👍

Great work my guy 👌
Thanks for the visit🙏🙏🙏👍
Lot of work to make a tap, I've made from drill rod before, old school 👍.
I just turn broken drills into spots/chamfer tools, easy to grind by hand.
Great idea
Good job but it cost you more to make that than to buy it but at least your skilled enough to do it!!
1/4 turn forward and 1/2 a turn back works best when hand tapping.
I'm sore there's more drag on that bit than a regular tap that's been form ground with the proper relief angles..

Thank you so much bro🙏👍
Very Clever well done make them all the way to 50mm again well good Machine Skills 👏 👍
Wow, thanks!🙏🙏🙏👍
Excellent. It may seem like a waste of time but those skills are cross applicable and will come in handy. Who knows what the future may bring.
👍👍👍👍🙏❤️
Excellent video! :)
You don't have to heat it until it's white-hot to harden it, a little less will also do.
Thanks for the tip!🙏
Muito bom!!!!
Você é um ótimo profissional!!!
Excelente!
🙏🙏🙏👍🌹
what did it cost to make this against what it costs to buy one?
Look at the technique and knowledge of doing this and enjoy it my friend

What solution are you using to keep drill bits cool?
I'm not understand the meaning my friend
Отличная работа!

With the price of a decent tap today, providing you can find one, I'm Canadian and my cousin is basically Chinese this is interesting.
