I saw a few comments complaining, for some reason, about you making a burnisher like this. A very peculiar grievance IMHO! Makes me wonder if perhaps they were confused with the definitions of "essential", "must-have", "game-changer", etc. 🤔 To me, the maker spirit has always been along the lines of *_"Using the tools you have to make the tools you need (or can't buy!)"_* Obviously, this hits snags when stock/consumables prices are gouged, meaning a surprising amount of tools wind up costing multiple times the cost to make than to have shipped direct to your door...but I'm using the Power of Imagination to forget that's a thing! At the risk of being presumptive, I'm wondering if this build means you checked out Maurizio Guidi's builds? It's a shot in the dark guess I know, since there are a several machinist UA-camrs who've posted videos making one in the last 6 months. It does make me think though, just maybe... I swear, I'm not intentionally trying to fanboy, even though that's precisely how it appears. Admittedly, I'm just jazzed at the notion another machinist I enjoy watching might be finding inspiration from his work. He's one of the many amazing makers on UA-cam who barely draw any following, since their native language isn't English, and they aren't confident enough with their own proficiency speaking English. Even if they make every accommodation possible, the algorithm is not likely to push their content to the feeds of those speaking a different language... (I was just about to say "JSK-Koubou is another underrated one", but then I saw his subscriber count in the last year has blown-up to almost 2M!) There are a couple Ukrainian & a Russian who are phenomenal to watch. I would need to copy/paste their channel name though, since I can't read Cyrillic yet. There was a great Thai maker, Cai Lem was his name (it had tone accents on several letters.) Sadly, I believe he had to shutter or sell off his workshop, due to non-existent demand locally for quality craftsmanship, in the land of cheap knockoffs on every corner... 😢 Anyway, I had no intention of making such a long comment, so I'll shut up now. Another very enjoyable video, my friend! 🫡
If you enjoy unusual burnishing videos I have plenty on my channel ranging from pattern burnishing to spot burnishing and many others including flat on the milling machine, which inspired others to have a go.
@@marley589 Honestly, I don't think so at all. It doesn't take a lot of pressure really. Definitely much much less than those push knurling tools, which I don't even like using too much on my 13" machine.
A solid tool post on a bench top lathe would probably make it work pretty well. It adds a lot of rigidity that compounds on bench tops just don't have.
I will quote from page 22 of my Modern Tooling Methods for Turret Lathes, by M.E. Lange,Production Engineer, The Warner & Swasey Company, COPYRIGHT 1926!!! “When close limits of+.000/-.001 with fine finish are required from work turned from the square turret, two cuts are necessary because there is no roller to burnish the surface.” This implies that already in 1926 burnishing tools were in use. Make you wonder how far back the tool goes doesn’t it? (Yes there is no mistake on the tolerances mention either!)
So one thing most of the burnishing videos are missing is DOC & feeds. I have never used one but it looks like they would roll off the end of a shaft or need a lead in.
@@pvtimberfaller there’s no DOC, no material is removed. It’s really as simple and easy as it looks. I had my doubts as well before I tried it but I’m a believer now
Totally irrelevant - but im interested in your power situation. You have 3 phase to the shop or are you in a situation like me where you only get 1p 220? Saw a VFD and another box on the wall, so just curious how you solved the need for 3 phase. It would be about 10k for me to get it pulled in. Reason I want/need it is I picked up a beautiful Schaublin 120VM that is a 3 phase motor. I believe im going to go the VFD route of ease and extend an existing 220, but seems like every day I feel different. thx!
I use a VFD on my Bridgeport, for everything else I'm using solid state converters. Having done a few machines at this point, if I did it over again I probably would just invest in a rotary converter. As for VFDs, depending on the machine they aren't always a great choice as you have to bypass the machine's electronics and rewire the motor directly to the VFD.
Speaking of nice surface finishes, why did you fly cut the major surfaces ( with wonderful results ) and then end mill one of them to an ugly finish? Otherwise nice project!
Fly cutter was to quickly square the work, then mill to size, which would take forever with a fly cutter. This material was FULL of hard spots, trashed 2 cutters in the process, hence the nasty finish.
Sorry mate, this video has just made me unsub. I know what milling looks like, I know what dialling in a 4J looks like. Nearly 90% of this video is you waving your videography willy in my face. I ended up watching it on 1.5x speed. Finally you get round to telling us it's a burnishing tool (nice job BTW) and those are 10 minutes I'm never going to get back.
Forget your excellent machining, the videography on this video is incredible!!! Merry Christmas my friend. 🎄
@@voodoochild1954 thank you! And merry Christmas to you as well!
Enjoyed watching have a merry Christmas to you and yours
Camera work and editing on this is crazy good !

Excellent job mate 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Nice built, I built the same thing but only with a ball ball bearing. Have a nice Christmas time
@@ScheunenTecCNC thanks very much, and you as well!
Loved it, the whole thing. 👍👍
@@jasonhull5712 thanks very much for watching!
Nice work. I see the AnchorLube fairy hasn’t visited your shop. All of the cool kids are using that now.
Great filming and editing as always!
Thanks!
This would probably be really nice for smaller hobbiest lathes.
@@minilathemayhem yeah I think so too. Thanks for watching btw.
A lot of strain for small machines, better on rigid setups.
@@marley589 Honestly, I don't think so at all. It doesn't take a lot of pressure really. Definitely much much less than those push knurling tools, which I don't even like using too much on my 13" machine.
I guess for this you need a fairly rigid setup? I have a fairly small bench top lathe and have been considering one of these.

@@Warped65er thanks very much for watching
Does this model have any new features to the plethora of burnishing tools currently clogging UA-cam at the moment.
Nope.
Nice work on the film and the part. Happy holidays!
Thank you, and happy holidays to you as well!
Wow. That is a great tool. I can only wish for that sort of machining.
Good video

Maybe it’s time I try one of those. Thanks for the video.
@@greglaroche1753 it’s a fun project and it really does work, so I’d say go for it. And thank you for watching!

Thank you!
@@hersch_tool oh man you missed it! perfect opertunity to say "That's what she said! ha!"
@ haha, dang I must be slipping in my old age…
@@hersch_tool ha
I had no idea what tool you were making till right at the end...riveted!
Thanks for watching :)
I really like your design.
Just bought a 4 jaw to make one i like how you did yours.
@@RM-q1x thanks very much, and have fun with the project!
Why didn't you measure the reduction in diameter? It's not negligible
There are a lot of factors that contribute to the diameter reduction, but it always gets smaller.
Good job
@@stovepipe666 thanks
what do you use for recording?
My phone and/or a DJI camera. Thanks for watching.
Very interesting. Thanks.
@@rjay1674 thanks for watching 🙂
I need help getting the drawings for the burnishing tool. Sorry first time.
