Hi Craig, Thanks for your comments. Glad your enjoying the videos. The second video in the shaper series will be online today. Hope you enjoy it as much as this series.
@@mrmechanical3423 Thanks - I'll look for those first and second shaper videos just as soon as I've caught up with the power feed, and caterham videos! Cheers, Craig
You'll never go back to hand cranking other than very short runs, as to your vice I recomend taking off the swivel base, it makes it more rigid and less vibration and i never once used the swivel on it. In the milling book you mentioned in another video i think it has machining jacks, they are good for supporting longer pieces. I'll be watching the shaper videos with interest. When using the countersink drills if you run them slower they will last for years, also pecking the holes will shorten those long stringy chips and keep them from wrapping up.
Hi, brilliant series of videos, what is the make of you mill?
Using a tool, to make a tool, to make a tool, to make a car. Love it :)
Looking forward to the shaper series.
Cheers, Craig
