- Making a Cylindrical Grinder attachment for the surface grinder (and maybe the cutter grinder). I make all my projects from whatever material I can find, this project is no different.
I don't have any drawings to work from, because generally, I'm usually working on projects that don't have drawings or they are unobtainable. While I'm making the project, I record what I do and how I went about the process.
I have measured everything and raised drawings to issue for free via my website, www.thesheddweller.com.
Unfortunately, these videos take time to produce because I have other commitments. New videos may take up to three months to make and release and I apologise for this. - Навчання та стиль
Building your own tools is so satisfying. Love it.
Hi, I enjoy it immensely, thanks for your comments.
A pleasure to watch. No compromises in your work.
Hi, thank you for watching.
What a great shop you have ! Nice project and good to see that like most other seasoned craftsmen you can work from an idea in your mind. You certainly have the chops to make some great stuff. I look forward to seeing the second part of this well thought out project. Thank you for sharing.
Hi thanks for watching, I’m working on part two right now. regards
Thanks for the videos, as a complete milling beginner they are very inspiring. Particularly impressed by the hefty looking cuts you take.
Hi, thanks for watching. I'm quite used to being stood next to a milling machine that removes tons of material per working shift, you just have to keep your ears tuned to the cutter, if it don't sound or look good - it ain't good, if the motor is labouring something is going to go bang. that has always been my philosophy with machines. regards
30:08 - I loved that, " They were as tight as hell" Im a new subscriber. Keep up the good work, the commentary and camera work are a real credit to you and your work speaks volumes. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
Hi, thanks for your kind comments.
thank you so much for sharing this and for making your prints available.
Thank you. you’re welcome.
Looking forward to the finished piece, thanks.
Hi, Ive just got a few more things to do, then i’ll make the video… it’ll be out soon. cheers
Hi Paul,
A very interesting project... I will be watching part 2.
Take care
Paul,,
Hi, thanks for your kind comments.
Just recently found your channel and I’m so glad I did. Really enjoy your videos. Great information. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, thanks glad you enjoyed.
Great job, plenty of ripper cutters in use. Looking forward to it in use.
Thanks for sharing and best regards from the Black Country.
John.
Cheers mate.
I have an Eagle MkIII surface grinder, which is currently set up for dry grinding, I am going to fold up a tray similar to yours so I can wet grind, nice work on the cylindrical grinder, you've given me some ideas for making one myself now
Hi, glad you like the video content, cheers
Interesting project and design. Very nice work.
Hi Dudley thanks for your kind comments.
Wow, I am super glad YT decided to put this in my recommendation list. Insta-sub and can’t wait until part 2.
Hi, glad you really liked the content, cheers
Great work again!
Hi thank you for your comments.
Nice job! We featured this video on our homemade tools forum this week :)
Pigeon detritis ... lol. My gramma used to tell me it looks like chicken scratches (she was a certified pressure container welder in WWII)!
Love that one,... Chicken Scratches. :-)
Outstanding job ! Thank you for sharing. I Liked,shared. All my best.
Hi, thanks for your kind comments.
8:06 thats a good method. I use to saw small Stock like this as well often.
That fit at the end, sweet.
I've done hundreds in the past, circular mainly, for holding split balance weights in big fans.
@@Thesheddweller a delight to see a craftsman at work.
very nice video bravo
Thank you very much!
great idea...like ...greetings from Brazil
Hi, thank you for your feedback.
It's very interesting I hope to make one like that
hi thanks for watching.
Thanks, very interesting. Reminds me of Fred Dibnah's 'it has to be right, but it doesn't have to be pretty' approach to engineering.
Hi, thanks for you kind comments. but its true, looks are for sales function is for users. cheers
Fred Genius, Oh I so don't agree with you. I think Fred had a very acute sense of the form and beauty of the machines the Victorian's made. Even if they were for making things.
@@samrodian919 Yes, definitely. But his roots were clearly in function, not form. Just doing the job is a beauty in itself.
@@fredgenius Hi, Have you ever seen a victorian machine that has had all the paint and putty removed, god they're ugly. Bit like a chicken without feathers, it still tastes the same when its cooked.
@@Thesheddweller Indeed I have. I wish the same was true of Chinese castings.
Subscribed a few weeks ago 😁. Nice content!
Same here.
Hi, thanks for your feedback.
@@bejay69 Hi, thanks for watching.
Just a thought. Any future tailsock needed find a index devider tailback it has all the bells and whistles you need .
Hi, thanks for the info.
Nice project I have been meaning to make one of these myself for a while. Can I ask where you got your power feed on the mill? Was it an add on or did it come with the machine?
Hi, thanks for watching. I bought the power feed from Warco the same place I bought the mill.
I made a video about fitting it to my mill quite a while ago.
Thank you for putting so much effort into the filming and the editing of this video. I wish some other prominent UA-camrs in the engineering field would quicken the pace of their overly long productions.
I'm curious that you did not use your surface grinder for finishing some of this work. Length of travel perhaps?
Hi, no problem with the travel. I'll tell you a little secret,. I did take a little off both top and bottom using residual magnet grab. you should just make out on the top face, both end are slightly less cross cut. I guess I was expecting the material to have sprung more than it did. Regards
Nice
Thanks. 👍
Thanks man. Ta.
Hi, you’re very welcome.
love to watch this. is there any necessary operation on dovetail after milling? like grinding or scraping to get high precision. thanks.
Hi thanks for watching. in a word yes... get it right first time, use your little black book or ZEUS and examine the clearance/fit sections they tell you what you need to know. if it does go wrong then you've got to hope its going to need material removed, whether by more machining or manual fettling, 'putting on' tools don't really exist apart from metal spraying. manual fettling is not good beyond scraping but I do have a triangular mandrel that allows me to wrap very fine wetordry round it and a stone to finish off with. The biggest problem with this tight fit business is getting the two parts to start without marring one or the other part , so I rub a very small lead chamfer on the edges. regards
@@Thesheddweller thanks a lot Paul. i will check those books first. i will keep watching and learning from you.👀👍
Is it possible to get a video tour of the workshop, a presentation of the machines, etc.?
I have pictures on my website,... www.thesheddweller.com enjoy
I have a maybe funny question - I want to build a small metal mill - do you think it is possible to build something precise enough without a lathe and without a mill? Just an angle grinder and a simple welder?
Hi, yes it is possible, but you have to think in parallels, rigidity and plan well ahead. let me know how you get on.
Great work as always.
I love the cutter you use in the opening shots of the mill. Do you know where i might be able to buy one?
Cheers Charlie
Yes I too love the finish this cutter produces can you tell us the make and size if possible?
Hi, that cutter comes in two parts I call it a strassman cutter, mainly becuse thats what we called them at work. The mandrell and the cutter are both from Ebay.
A Briton, definitely a Briton, and obviously an "old school" Briton, talks "millimetres". And then, @ 17:19 we see a gauge block that reads... 0.500 IN. The End Is Nigh... : )
Anyway, a lovely video. Thanks!
Decimal inch is king.
Hi, yes I’m a product of both measurements, the company I worked for had old machinery, and and lots of old drawings 100years worth. When I joined, over thirty years ago, new drawings were being made and updated to that newfangled “funny money” metric. The problem is the machines were still imperial and the drawings were in metric. Rock and hard place springs to mind.
by the way most of the equipment I have bought through Ebay, is a mix which is fine for me. :-)
@@mackk123 Yessir, especially in his own court. Outside of it...well, it's a different kettle of metric fish... ;-)
Let me elaborate a bit on this issue, as I already have "broader comment" available - a comment I've made some time ago under "Can you REALLY Read a Tape Measure?" video (ua-cam.com/video/g3AfQc4On_k/v-deo.html) .
Some of it might not be relevant or pertaining to the issue at hand, but I don't really feel like rewriting or editing it now. So, enjoy it (or don't, depending on your taste and preferences ;-) as it is:
========
I’m just watching Keith Rucker turning some taper, and here’s what he said about measuring it with a special taper micrometer:
“Now, because what we’re doing is a taper where it’s inches per foot, this gets really easy because this is exactly one inch (…) so I know that if I’m at ¾ of an inch per foot is my taper, I can divide it by twelve, and it comes out to 0.0625 inches per inch”.
(ua-cam.com/video/FaHYXAjqDpw/v-deo.html).
Oh, yes, REALLY easy - in fact, so easy a child can calculate it in his head… Unlike with metric system, where one has to use calculator to find out that with a taper of 62.5 mm/1 m (same taper as the one Keith is turning, just converted to metric), the difference in diameter at the distance of 10 cm (100 mm) would be… oh… uh… umm... 6.25 mm. Or 0.625 mm/1 cm/ 10 mm
Yeah, that was the tough one, them bloody and confusing metrics…
As I said before - the trouble with "imperial" and "US customary" systems is not units per se, but the funny and outdated/ obsolete way of "getting to next level", so to speak. Should there be a system where one inch would be divided into ten "dekainches", hundred of "centiinches", and a thousand of "miliinches"; a foot would consist of ten inches and and a yard would be equal to 10 feet (and a mile would be 100 or 1000 yards), then this whole argument about "which system is better" would be just a pure moot (and a total waste of time). However...
==========
End of quote.
So, yes, I agree - decimal inches are much better than fractional ones. Still, it merely solves the "inch issue", and leaves foot, yard, mile and fathom untouched.
@@Thesheddweller Yes, I agree. Seems to me it wasn't the smartest thing to do - it is just looking for trouble, so to speak. Confusing and prone to making errors (computational ones). If you have an inch ruler, don't measure centimetres, and vice versa. So yes, it makes perfect sense to measure everything mm if your equipment is metric - simpler, easier, and... progressive, heh heh... ;-)
Still, a pretty unusual sight - older Briton talking "metric" - and thus my comment. Cheers!
PS: I am "metric" guy, and was one all my life. However, in the '90s I happened to spend some time in Singapore (not that much, just tad over a decade), and as number of folks out there still cling to "good old system", I had the opportunity to get used to it. And since then I prefer to use dual-scale measuring tape, as quite often apparently "metric" products (most often a furniture) seem to be actually "imperial" - like, say, a desk with a depth of 76 cm. Why not 75, or 80? Well, 76 cm almost equals 30"... Makes you think, eh? ;-)
I'm not sure if you are aware, but at the end of all of your voice over audio clips, there is a very audible clicking. Sounds like a mouse button being pressed and released.
Enjoyed the video otherwise though, I've watched a few of your videos the last couple days, very interesting!
Hi, I'm not aware I’ll have a butchers.
👍.
Thanks for watching.
What is that big roughing end mill called?
Hi, the cutter is a' HSS shell end milling cutter’. One is serrated for faster stock removal the other is a standard fluted cutter for a clean finish
I love it. what material do you use?
Hi, I use whatever I can get my hands on mostly. Most of this material was rusty but I believe it was mild steel. The two dead centres are EN8 hardened at the tips to Rockwell 55-60. Handles, motor frame and gear wheel are aluminium.
Nice video. But I am confused of your usage of metric all the way I guess your milling machine comes from Europe) and sudenly you are drilling holes one inch apart! (or did you mean 25mm ?)
Hi, the sine plate is imperial.👍
Мужик, подпишусь.
Привет, спасибо за просмотр. С уважением
Your Cutter will Last longer If you take lower rpm at 6:00 . Or coolant or a Carbide Cutter.
Thank you for your feedback. The cutter appears fast due to the fact that I’ve sped up the clip as I do most of the time. I have not sharpened this cutter since I bought it. I think I’m doing ok. Cheers.
Bit of runout in your drill press there by the looks.
Hi, A bit!..my cars windscreen wipers have less play :-)
Hi,Paul. Very interesting project but sadly I am going to raise a negative point about excessive advertising disrupting the content viewing to the point it becomes infuriating. Other channels I subscribe to have had similar problems with excessive ads put in by UA-cam. They can be controlled by from your editing choices when uploading. This recent inclusion of excessive advert breaks has caused me to unsubscribe from several channels. I hope this won't be the case with your channel. There were 11 advert breaks in this 31 minute video.
Hi thanks for taking the time to tell me I had no idea this is happening especially as I requested no adverts. I will look into it right away. cheers.
I'm hoping that this mid advert stuff will end now.. it may take a little while to happen, but I have switched it off.
@@Thesheddweller I am not sure that is possible after you have uploaded a particular video, but for the future. No doubt youtube have got it rigged that you have to state your preference every time you upload a video sneaky bastards that they are. Joe pieszcinski's recent videos also have been overloaded with bloody adverts recently but I would never unsubscribe from his chanel even though I detest bloody adverts
@@samrodian919 yes, I found out yesterday when I received complaints about this very problem, all middle adverts should now have stopped.
quatsch wer macht so einen blödsinn.
