Nice. I just got done making my first M Baffle. Should have watch this first. I ground my own face grooving tool out of HSS. Worked very well.
Funny to rewatch this video and hear the subscriber count was approaching 500, now 10,000 subscribers later!
Never throw away broken tap, end mills, or drills, they can be ground into cutting tools. - Use a chop stick or similar item to catch your parted pieces. - Wouldn't a high speed steel cutter give you a better finish on aluminum? - Overall nice job.
Brian,
This is an interesting machining job. I like the use of a step drill to provide some room for the boring. Although expensive, you might want to use a Rotabroach cutter for your trepanning tool work if you have a lot of these to make or for working in steel. Thanks for the video, Paul
+Paul Jones That is a great idea Paul. love your work at homemadetools site. thanks for watching
Brian thanks, I think the HomemadeTools.net website is a great place to share tool ideas and see what is possible.
Cool work what type of metal do you use to make the baffle
How did you make sure the hole was eccentric to the OD? Or is that auto on your lathe?
that is a function of the lathe concentric to the center of the baffle
I don't think suppressors should be regulated, but that is just my opinion.
Cool video!
No help from Zeke???
Mike
+Oldvet1946 Yep its just a muffler, should not be regulated, but at $200 per stamp the ole gov is not likely to give that up. Zeke is pissed he wasn't in that vid.. Guess I'll have to feed him..thanks for watchin
They are regulated because Leftist Idiots watch WAYYY TOO MANY MOVIES ....BESIDES, IT IS HIGHLY ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO BE ILLEGAL IN THE FIRST PLACE.... OUR CONSTITUTION TRUMPS SOCIALIST PROPAGANDA!.. FIGHT BACK.
Man, that looks awesome! It makes me really want to try that on my next Form 1 suppressor. I've had good luck cutting out the bottoms of 60* cones by finishing with a 6 flute 60* countersink (5/8, 3/4, or 1 inch depending) in a low speed to get that narrow part hard to cut with even the smallest of boring bars. Great video!
+Practical Renaissance thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching.
nice video. You should consider grinding a nice radius on your parting tool it will cut better and the sound waves will reflect back upon themselves canceling them out during firing. It seems to work on my baffles.
In your opinion which design makes the quietest shot with all the various designs?? Would be used for pest animal hunting around the farm and shooting range fun. Calibers are .22 long rifle and 223 both are standard velocity.
60 deg cones are the best for that application, good luck

Did you cut a groove on the inside of the front to allow for the next baffle to stack inside it? I mean before you cut it off.
just a small step to line up each one in the tube
Why did you not use a 3 jaw chuck?
Would you make the real thing of steel? How many in a can? What material do you make the can from? Thanks for the video!
Looking into lathes for this saw a cheap Chinese one on Amazon any recommendations on where else to start
grizzly tools, get the biggest lathe now, I stair stepped through 3 models.
@@bstanga thoughts on the harbor freight model ? I will only b making baffles and tubes for now
@@zachwhitney9563 I bought it, then brought it back, to small, not ridged. Here is what I did, and it was a long time ago now lol, HF, returned it, then a grizzly 10/22, sold it, then grizzly 13/40 happy happy. less than 5k delivered. good luck
Great idea on using the step drill. I never would have thought of that. Do you have some book or some guide to making suppressors? Thanks for the video.
+cerberus No Harold I'm just winging it, I saw a pic of the M baffle on the web and just went into the shop turned on a couple of cameras and tried to make it, broke a tool, but learned that if a narrow tool starts chattering you better get out quick or .. well you saw it in the video snapped off like a twig.. thanks for watching.
Excelente video, muy bueno su aporte. Aunque falte el video del silenciador/moderador terminado, la última parte, y el video de prueba de campo. saludos.
Excellent video, very good contribution. Even if the video of the finished muffler / moderator, the last part, and the field test video is missing. Greetings.
What OD do you suggest? And will stainless baffles work with an T6 aluminum tube for 5.56?
no aluminum for 556
@@coal_tactical jk Armament makes theirs out of high grade aluminum, except the end caps and a 2" long initial blast baffle out of Ti or SS, but the remaining baffles are 6061/7075
Is there a carbine insert tool you suggest for forming the cone shape from the top down? Made some HSS stuff for aluminum, but would like to do some out of stainless
Very interesting!
Bucket list..lathe!
Where are you located?
Excellent video. I believe I could actually do this after watching your video!
its really easy to do. watch this video ua-cam.com/video/wEbnT7blq-g/v-deo.html
Great video, keep them coming.
Can I suggest that you don't put your hands or any object near the rotating chuck. Hate for you to get injured as I want you to keep making videos.
+geoffthefarmer thanks for the advice and the kind words, thanks for watching
What kind of lathe do you have? can you do this kind of work on a mini lathe. I don't have a lot of room. I have a mini mill for my 80 percent lowers. mini lathe for my own form 1's would be a nice addition to my man cave.
I have a 13x40 lathe, you could do it on a mini, but much easier on a more rigid lathe. thanks for watching
What machine is it that you can cut the angle of the cone like that? I have a mini lathe but I can't cut at an angle to make a cone shape, or I just can't figure it out.
you set the compound slide to 60 deg and crank the compound in and out to get the cut
Thanks for the info!
How do you machine Titanium K baffles like in the Trash Panda or a Thunder Chicken? I noticed their baffled are vented
this video shows how to make them pretty easy ua-cam.com/video/wEbnT7blq-g/v-deo.html
how big did you over size the baffle or end cap, for .223 or 5.56 Thanks
50 thou
Don't they break easy when made of aluminum (it looks like aluminum)
What speed do you have your lathe set at ?
don't use your fingers to remove swarth you may end up only able to count to 8 or 9
Is there a patent on m baffels our has it expired
an m paper weight would be a cool giveaway. nice work buddy
+eyedropbombz thats a cool idea. maybe not machine out the back side so it won't run afoul of the ATF. thanks for watching
+Brian Stanga as long as you dont drill a hole its just scrap metal
Liked and Subscribed! Good vid
What finish do you suggest is best for the baffles?
+Johnn Schroeder i use mine in the raw so to speak, if you could anodize they would be a little harder, I haven't had any issues because I use a SS blast baffle to take the brunt, if ya know what I mean. thanks for watching.
125 RMS is a finish standard for most materials but 32 RMS is easy enough to do and looks nice. FYI a mirror finish starts at 8 RMS. RMS = Roughness in Micro Seconds.
How much Sir for 177 rifle silencer?
Your great,wish I could make one but I don't have the tools or skills.
+Kenny Wright get the tools then you will find the skills. Thanks for watching
Dang I thought I was watching a video on how to trap solvent.
dont leave them as plain cones, clip them to make it even quieter, like this: ua-cam.com/video/nOqNB4gSJqY/v-deo.html
Dull azz bits.
I'm sorry, but I have to critique you. You almost never explain what you're doing. For example, when making the cone at about 4 minute mark, what are you using? Are you using the compound set at 60 degrees, and going back & forth with the carriage, or going back & forth with the compound? All we ever see is the tool. You're not instructing; you're just showing the lathe cutting. Sorry, but this is true with many things you demonstrate. It may be obvious to an expert machinist, but some (like me) got our certifications years ago, or didn't even go that far, and are trying to learn as we go. These are otherwise excellent videos, and I certainly appreciate your efforts for us, but why not make them even better. I'm a fan, and want to remain one, but you're leaving me behind.
oof

Good greif quit fidgeting with it get to the point.
Couple a things bud. 1st, your 'hang out' is a little long, bring your tooling back a bit to lessen vibration & achieve a cleaner cut particularly with the HSS bit you are using (& snapped). 2nd, it's dull, that's another reason for the snapping of said bit & the excessive noise while in the cut. 3rd, I've always achieved a better finish & considerably better cutting/ parting etc when I use kerosene instead of any oils or other lubricants (aka WD40). I'm also a 'hobbyist' & these points are just my experiences, I have no clue if I'm correct or not. Good luck brother! 👍
