- Pair of V-Block Pairs - Beginner Milling Project on the Precision Matthew PM-25MV benchtop Mill
Amateur video work and amateur hobby machinist. Videos of me working on various projects in the workshop and around the home. Work using my Vevor MX400 Mini Lathe and Precision Matthews PM-25MV Benchtop Milling Machine. - Розваги
Very nice work sir
Thanks, These are a great fun little project for anyone getting started with a Mill. End up with a very useful tool as well.
Hi Deez, don't you love how plastic chips from a fly cutter stick to everything everywhere!
:-) yeah it made a huge mess, I tried to vacuum often...lol
It seems to be quite an approachable project, and I've added this to my project list. I've found the Blondihacks on the subject quite useful. She first cut the V and then centers it. I don't know how much it matters, but seemed like a reasonable technique. Another thing I noticed in this video was the blocks were in opposite orientation, with the same V grove inwards. This isn't as precise if one block isn't flipped end over end. As you are cutting the left side of one block, and the right side of the other. It's likely too little to notice, if you aren't after tightest tolerances.
These are great points to add. Admittedly my technique’s weren’t as precise as I could have done. I probably should have focused a bit more on that aspect of making these. It doesn’t matter for what I made them for but it’s always good to try to achieve precision if you can. Something I have not been great about. I appreciate the comments and thanks for watching. Oh yeah I have learned a lot from
Blondies videos. She has a lot of great content. Cheers
@@deezworkshop Don't be too hard on yourself. That's likely one of the reasons why I don't play around anymore, myself. Not everything needs to be perfect. Thank you for making videos and sharing these online for free.
@@jwrm22 at this point all I’m doing is having fun with this hobby and continuing to improve as time goes on. I enjoy sharing the videos and am glad many are finding them entertaining if not helpful. Cheers and thanks for watching.
Nice work i enjoyed it , next you need to make a mill table feed that was a lot of cranking ty for shareing .
Thanks, Funny you mention that, I was just looking at the mill table feed attachment from PMs site yesterday. It is likely a sooner than later purchase. Cheers and thanks for watching.
Got be stoked with the look and feel of the workshop atm. Definitely a space to be proud of, well setup and getting projects done. Its turning into the shed most of us dream about👍👌🇦🇺(your close up shots are sweet as, is it a new camera?)
My shop space has really come together, The addition of the Yard barn to get the outdoor tools outside has really helped. You can make a nice workshop in any space you have...just need to get creative in some situations. I have been incorporating more close up shots in the latest content. The GoPro doesnt do well with anything closer than 12 inches and really is good at outdoor shots. The bigger issue with it is it overheats very quickly and shuts down. Really kills the momentum during certain recording sessions. Not been happy with it for what im doing. I actually use the iphone for my closeup shots and it does really well. I may upgrade my phone and switch to using it mostly. Thanks for the feedback, and I really am digging my workshop space now. Cheers
Hi deez it looks like delrin plastic 😊
I think its delrin but could also be UHMW or some variation. Honestly I am not quite sure. Some of the plastics are harder and more rigid and some are certainly more flexible and softer. This is an area I need to educate myself on.
Cutting boards are made from HDPE not nearly as hard as nylon. The way those chips came off the material it could be Delrin. Put some nuts on those jacks to lock them in place
Thanks, I need to educate myself on the types of plastics and hardnesses. Lot to learn there. This material was much harder than the curring board type of material. Locking nuts would really help with those jacks. I need to improve them for sure. I think I will put some flats on them as well so I can snug them down with a wrench as needed. Cheers, Thanks for watching. Hope you are well and had a great Holiday weekend.
