    Great work. I spent 37 years of my life in a US Army calibration lab. I’m learning how much I didn’t know from watching your videos. Thanks..

    Great video. My tools usually get a cross hatch finish from rotating part. Six of one, half dozen of another i guess. Going to check out some more of your videos now. TY

      It was a 150, I misspoke in the beginning. But limit your down feeds to .0002 maximum on these wheels.

    We had the Schmidt mag sines with the screws and pivoting clamps.
    All you need to do is tighten down lightly finger tight.
    One day I saw one of the younger guys cranking the screw down like it was a head bolt.
    I told him keep turning you'll snap those ceramic jo blocks for sure.

    Super job on the grinding. Great tip on using the springs for more constant pressure on the gage blocks.

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому +1

      Some sine plates are very tight, I have noticed a small (barely measurable) amount of spring back on the tight ones.

  • @PeterWMeek

    Great way to check the "V"s for alignment and centeredness without needing a master V-block to hold the blocks. I may not be doing my own reconditioning, but at least now I can check to see which of my v-block are accurate (and whether sets are matching).

    Hi Stan,
    I followed the link, I think this method is better because you don't to dress the angle on the wheel. Now I'm looking for a magnetic sine plate. I do have a magnetic V block maybe I'll try that with my smaller V block set.
    Thanks for sharing

    This was excellent. I need to re-grind my v-blocks but I don’t have a fancy Suburban tools sine plate. Is there another way to fixture this up accurately?

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  Рік тому

      A nice accurate magnetic V block would serve you well. but your work is only going to be as accurate as the mag.

    • @garysgarage101
      @garysgarage101 Рік тому

      @@ShadonHKW Ah, good idea. In order to do V blocks in pairs I guess I’d have to find a pretty long one. At least now I know how to measure them up. Great video, learned a ton. BTW, just got your Hotshot 360. Looking forward to to having some fun with that.

  • @bcbloc02
    @bcbloc02 7 років тому

    Excellent work and finish! How realistic would it be to do the bottom of the v like you did and use a dressed wheel to side wheel the other side at the same time?

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому

      Side wheel + flat grind? Thats a lot of contact area, not to mention all the accuracy is in the downfeed, Y axis is sloppy and only has .001 resolution on the dials.

  • @lookcreations
    @lookcreations 7 років тому

    Always enjoyable watching you at the surface grinder and granite plate. Would like to see you bring a T Square back into square. Mines taken a nock and at 10" it's 0.0022" out of square when I check inside to outside faces (0.0044" total error). Not much on UA-cam for correcting them once you fine them out. All the best Stan, I'm back to scraping my machine ways. Mat

  • @outsidescrewball
    @outsidescrewball 7 років тому

    Nice work Stan...sure which you showed the tramping of the fixture/fence, do you think the removal of the parts (pulling) disturbed the gage blocks? Curious, did you check the blocks with with the blocks aligned with a rod in the alignment hole?

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому

    • @RyanWeishalla
      @RyanWeishalla 7 років тому

      I assume in the second question you were asking about the hole that goes through each of the blocks that you can put a rod through in order to align them? Was curious on that as well...or often people use them in real usage?

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому

      Those are threaded holes, A piece of all thread and a sleeve is what would be needed to make a spacer between them, I honestly dont think I've ever seen them used this way.

    I purchased a used compound sine plate last month. I failed to tell the seller to put a piece of anti fretting material under each sine bar. I received the plate with fretting erosion damage to both sine bars. You can see the wear at each of these. Amazing what a bouncing semi truck does to precision surfaces.

  • @johngalt9262
    @johngalt9262 7 років тому

    interesting use of springs on the sine plate..how much tension should those provide? (or read as, I always have a problem getting the plate to sit on the gage blocks, and not moving. any tips?
    thanks Stan for another great video!

  • @highpwr
    @highpwr 7 років тому

    Wow. Absolutely gorgeous finish on those coming straight off the grinder! It still blows my mind to see someone take TENTHS off of a part. Outstanding job Stan - thanks for showing this. I liked the tip about keeping a piece of paper under your sine plate roller too when it is being stored. But are you ever concerned with the acid content found in some paper, or perhaps it holding moisture? I always store my 1" mics with a gap between the anvil and the rod. I've never heard of anyone using paper in a mic?

    Thanks Uncle Stan, so many questions...which one to ask. When you're dealing with such small increments, how are the dials on you surface grinder set up to hit those tolerances? Thanks Again...Chuck

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому +3

      The down feed has a vernier for 10ths, so not too hard to hit as long as the backlash is always removed, I am on the prowl for a single scale DRO that reads down in the millionths. The DRO would be absolute and I could ignore backlash.

    • @KnolltopFarms

  • @barrygerbracht5077
    @barrygerbracht5077 7 років тому

    My back is hurting looking at you hunched over the grinder. Does it bother you? How long did it take to regrind these and what would you charge to do it? A new set of Starrett v-blocks at KBC is $607 CDN. I assume they were not free for the used ones.

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому +2

      I usually sit on a stool for flat work, but working into a wall like this needed my full attention. I only had a couple of hours into these from start to finish, if I didn't have to fuss around with a camera, it would probably be cut down to an hour and a half.

  • @roberth58
    @roberth58 7 років тому

    I hope you can explain one thing. You touch off one side of the block, zero the dial and then ground say 6 10th's to cleanup the surface. Then flip the block, touch off, zero and then grind 6 10ths on the second side to keep the grind even. How do you know that the touch off height is the same on both sides? If you are not grinding to the exact same height off the table wont the sides be uneven? I'm a newbie to this so probably am missing something obvious.

    • @ShadonHKW
      @ShadonHKW  7 років тому

      Hey Rob,
      I'm just being careful not plow into it right from the start, the actual matching comes from the final grind, when I said I was hitting my "mark" that was a sharpie mark on the down feed from the previous flip. Does that make sense?
