  • Just another day in the garage. Needed some tooling arbors for the new mill, decided to make my own.
    3 end mill holders and 1 slitting saw arbor -- 30 taper in this case.

    When we needed to "hack" a piece of custom tooling, we cut the taper, put it in the machine for which it was destined, and used tool holders on that machine to finish it. Concentricity was guaranteed (if you bolted down your tooling properly!)

      Too much common sense in that.
      I did think that on making the taper & fitting it with draw bar - then hammering it home to make it a good fit. Then loosening the draw bar, tapping the taper loose and then retightening the draw bar to a normal amount and calling that 'it' for fit - then machining the business end. Thus ensuring the taper is well fitting prior to machining the business end. It's a pity those international tapers have 2 drive dogs. 1 would be better as that'd guarantee refitipeatability orientation.

    Regarding cold bluing of parts. I have done quite a bit of gun smithing and I learned a very simple trick to make cold bluing more effective. Try warming the part up a bit above room temperature. Not enough to effect the grain structure, just enough to make the solution bite deeper. You are spot on about the cleanliness though. Cold bluing solutions are so touchy.
    Your work looks great. Stay safe and have fun.

    That is a sweet little mill. Except for the lack of a quill it has everything. Power feeds and rapid moves on all axis. Hefty tooling (compared to R8). Arbor operations. Its a real mill as opposed to a Bridgeport which is good for anything until you need to do heavy milling. The only thing better than your setup would be a mini horizontal with a built in rotary table. I’ve never seen one that would fit in the corner of a garage though.

    good stuff however for the drilled hole drill it while the mass of material is still there. When you get down small there is no place for the heat to go and it gets hotter than hell. One thing you can implement instantly by the way is there are no laws against placing a plastic thing under the chuck for a second and dumping coolant, or better yet put some coolant in water and freeze it into various chunks such as dixie cups or whatever--it works quite well. I do that surface grinding also all the time. But when roughing and the item gets hotter than hell there are no police that will break down the door and arrest you should you dump coolant or use ice to cool it off quickly if in a rush.. I make universal arbors similar to your concept and I rough off alot of material to make the 1 inch shank I stay away .020 and dump coolant over it or ice--and move in for the finish passes on the spot. But by drilling so hot there are strange things that happen--the diameter heats up and first grabs onto the drill then in a second or 2 the total heat expands it--now as you drill deeper--the first part you drilled COOLS AND SHRINKS DOWN ONTO THE UPPER PART OF THE DRILL.. (note where the breakage of the drill occured).. When you go to press or knock the drill out from the other end heat up the outer part FAST AND HOT and knock within a few seconds--the drill may come out.

    I've worked with 50CrMo4 a couple of times, and the experience I've had with it, on the lathe that I usually use (can't remember the model), is that to get the chips to break, I have to take very deep cuts and just 'force' the tool against the material.
    2mm depth of cuts always seem to make those irritating meals of spaghetti-metal, but as soon as I change it to 3+mm it starts to break nicely at a feedrate of 0.2-0.3mm/rpm and letting my insert get a longer life, though I don't know whether your lathe would have the power to do that :)
    As for coolant, I use a lot of it when working with this material (but as a trainee-machinist I'm not sure whether I should do that, or just wait and let it cool off on it's own like I usually do with regular steel-types).
    You are right though, it gets hot as hell :P

    Hey Tony, For stuff like flipping those for notching in the mill, I have seen guys that make exhaust collectors with multiple pie cuts use those magnetic dial angle finders when cutting pipe. Basically take some putty, glob it on the back of the dial then shove it on the end of the thing you wanna rotate, un clamp, spin, dial in to +/- a degree. You might even be able to use one of those magnetic digital angle finders (don't know if they work up side down).

    42CrMo4 QT (note the QT!) is a joy to machine. Try this next time.
    And -I am on a mission- it is M 12, not 12 mm thead. Even Stefan G. is starting supporting this 'merican crippilisation (You'd say crippling, but that's not sophisticated enough) of the metric system and its infrastructure. End of mission.
    Nice job!

    As someone in the comments said below, for this type of material a lot of coolant helps and if you want it to chip reduce the rpm..you will find a sweetspot where it chips nicely..i use this material a lot making half shafts for vintage cars..its an excellent choice for your application.

    Great video again! I admire your can do it attitude and humour. Please keep up the good work. Currently making a fixed gantry CNC inspired by your build. Would like to see more on the gantry and any modifications you would make to it, now you had some time to get to know each other....

    great video, I'm always amazed at how much patience you have. this work is incredibly tedious, but rewarding and fun. The best part is watching your process for measuring and setting things up to get really precise parts. Amazing work.

    If anyone breaks a drill like Tony did, don't use another drill (carbide or otherwise) to get it out. What you want to do is grab one of your old worn carbide endmills and take small pecks with the carbide endmill till you have gotten through enough of the broken drill flute that it just falls apart.

    I make a fair bit of my own taper tooling. My mill has a 30INT horizontal spindle, but I converted the vertical to a pneumatic drawbar and that is BT30. (The tapers are, conveniently, identical). My approach has been to make a sleeve for the spindle taper that accepts the 7/24 taper of either tooling. I first made a tapered bush to match the lathe spindle internal taper . (it is almost, but not quite MT4.5, but conveniently self-locking) then in-situ bored that to take my mill tooling tapers. (and marked the point adjacent to peg 1 of the D1-4. You could reference to the key of the L0 on the Student.) That means I can cut the taper as the first op and then pull the tooling back into the lathe spindle with a drawbar and be reasonably confident that it will run true in use.

    4 years late, but when we have to make a toolholder concentric, we buy the blank with taper already cut, rough it out, and then stick a boring bar vertically on the mill table and put the toolholder in the spindle. Turn it on and bore it that way. Perfectly concentric every time

    Very impressive work mate,inspiring. I made some tooling myself in 30 taper for my Elliott Milmor Super 16. I got around the concentricity issue by making a 30 taper tool holder for the spindle of my lathe. Was quite a lot of work but means I can guarantee concentric tooling every time. I made a draw bar to suit and it works well. As an asides it also means I can use my 30 taper tooling in my lathe should I want to do some milling or boring in the lathe. Really appreciate you videos mate.

    • @ThisOldTony
      @ThisOldTony  8 років тому +1

      +Andrew Wilson Thanks Andrew. I actually had the same though, make a 'receiver' for the lathe, but I don't have small enough tooling to get down into the small end of that female taper. I bet that holder comes in handy / convenient though.
