Great video as always Ray! Love seeing an extensive project with both additive and subtractive manufacturing techniques most often used in industry. Makes it extremely relevant in this new era of machining, thanks for sharing and educating the next generation
I was thinking about doing something a little bit different. I don’t even know if it would work but my idea would be to make a magnetic angle plate mostly to see if it would work. What do you think about that? Thank you for commenting and thank you for taking the time to comment. It is much appreciated. Ray
@@shopandmath do you mean an adjustable magnetic angle plate, or fixed angle? I can’t think how an adjustable plate is possible. Would love to see it, if it is possible.
Those magnetic parallels look amazing. I would engrave all my tools if I was working someplace that had more than one guy working in the machinist corner. I remember my machinist square and ball peen hammer being stolen as a student though. Maybe having my name engraved on them would have helped
Great video and result. I know it wasn't the main point, but what is that grinder used to cut the pins called? I could really use one of those but have no idea what the search term would even be. Anyone? Thanks.
The grinder that I used to cut, the pins is very standard nowadays it’s just instead of being a true vertical. Most of the attachments for grinders are more of a scissor action or it comes down like a chopsaw and then you can attach whatever type of grinder you want with it. That particular grinder basically was dead when I found it and then I rebuilt it Thank you for your nice comment and thank you for taking the time to comment it as much appreciated
Ray love your videos. Greetings from Perth Ontario. I design loudspeakers, woofers and tweeters. The best steel for transferring magnetic flux is the lowest carbon you can get. Drill rod is not the best for this. Generally I spec 1010 or 1008 for loudspeaker motors. Large diameter smooth nails are generally a reasonable source for this kind of steel. Mark
0:10. UA-cam will automatically make chapters for you if you add those timelines to your youtube description. I wouldn't stop at just engraving, date it too!
thank you for letting me know about the chapters I’ll have to look into it On my previous set or the first set that I made back in 95 it had the date on it Thank you for sharing and thank you for taking the time to comment it is much appreciated Ray
loved this video still miss ur machinng classes 3 years later ray
Glad you enjoyed the class
Hopefully, everything finds you well

Great job Ray, love those universal parallels, very informative, thanks.
thank you Matt for the nice comment
and thank you for taking the time to comment. It is much appreciated.

👍 beautiful!
I engrave name and try to include date of manufactur. Fun to look back as time flies!
Thanks for sharing my friend.
hi James, I would have to agree with you. I really should’ve put the date on. It would’ve made it a little bit more complete.
Thanks for sharing
Ray
Nice project. That was a lot of work! That empty space would be perfect for a magnetic v block.

A standard 90° angle plate that’s fixed to that angle
Nice work. We take the parts and spray paint black over them. Cheap fast good contrast.
Thank you
The brass and black does look nice

whatever possible I do try to engrave my name on things

I engrave my tool that I take to different job sites cause other people have the same tools and we done want to mix them up hey.
thank you for sharing
And thank you for commenting. It is much appreciated.
