Просмотров 42511 месяцев назад
This is my yearly challenge that I always look forward to.... This is a competition ran by Tim @turgworks4138 The challenge every year is to build something out of scrap wood. from off cuts laying around, re used wood, salvaged wood. You name it, as long as it is not bought new timber then you're good to go. This year I chose to use a lot of stud wall timber and I can honestly say. I have the u...

@dainermade set us instagramers a challenge, it brought to light something that I have been in denial for a very long time. the #offcutsonly23 challenge was a great to be involved in. but it did stretch the limits on my time planning, will I complete it in time? For kit and parts that I use for projects. kit.co/Oakfields_Creative Challenge clips have been taken from @dainermade RUclips channel.
DIY Workshop Upgrade: Converting an Old Desk into a Height-Adjustable Marvel

For far too long I have been managing in my workshop with nowhere to put my laptop. It's time for a workshop upgrade and to be slightly unconventional as to what I fit in it. repurposing what I have in my workshop. it has benefits now and will help in the future with my CNC upgrades. A massive thank you for the guess appearances from Will from Tesla Jigsaw youtube.com/@TeslaJigsaw and Tim from ...
Mastering Control: Variable Frequency Drive Integration on a Mini Lathe
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.Год назад
In my previous video I converted my motor on my lathe to a VFD 3 phase motor. This gave me better speed control and more reliability that I did not have before. but it needed the controls to be wired back to the lathe. so this video covers the topic of adding the controls back and adding a few extra feature to help me along the way.

Workshop tour and starting my channel.
Very interesting. I have a family of attachments that I have designed as well. It's great to see these various methods of attachment. By the way, it looks like there is a lot of smoke residue on your cuts. I upgraded my air to a compressor with 40psi and have pretty much eliminated the smoke marks.
Thank you for the video, my friend. Very informative and also entertaining!👏👏
Insightful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
What laser do you use?
Excellent tools 🔥
Glad you like them! 👍🏻
Far out, man.
Very helpful. Thanks!
Very helpful. Thanks!
I thought this video was about making laser cut cannabis joints. Sadly disappointed.
home made wax? video?
Good video! Much food for thought... A few minor issues- A digital caliper is not a Vernier (that is the mechanical readout method) There are 9 levels of fit (ISO standards) 'Glue squeeze-out' is not really a thing- in general, the greater the clamping force the stronger the joint. Even if it was, it would only apply to the sides of the tab, not the other two faces. Love the included bolt method!
Any chance of showing how to make the joint beginning at 8:15 mark in the video or is there an svg online that one could take a look at?
How do you make hook joints
Great information. new subscriber. Do you have any downloads of these joints or resources where we can find them? i'd love to try some of them.
Great video explaind very clearly and no adhd speed :)
Máquina pequena Com o novo motor ficou muito forte Parabéns amigo Saudações do Brasil !!🤝
great joints info .. cheers
Nice video. I’ve tested out all of them, when I was starting my laser cutting business 8 years ago. I really thought I invented few of them, but later started to see similar joints all over the place. Either people came up with it on their own, or they got the idea from me, I don't know. But I have at least 4 other joints that are not in this video. However, some of them are improved versions of existing ones.
Most likely the greasy substance in the beer has evaporated as well
Great vid, loved the explanations and slowly seeing your build come together 🎉
The storage solution is an awesome idea! I will have to look at creating my own for the workshop soon. Thanks for sharing Martin!
Muchas gracias por descubrirme las posibilidades de ensamble de las piezas de madera. Creo que sería interesante que explicaras qué tipos de materiales para corte y grabado láser, según el tipo de laser. También sería interesante conocer más concretamente que características poseen las diferentes maderas (blandas, duras, contrachapados, etc), y como interactúa el haz de luz con el material. Otro punto interesante de descubrir sería como ajustar el punto de enfoque un corte preciso, y un grabado espectacular. Que tipo de maderas utilizar en el grabado para mejorar el contraste. Y que tratamientos e impermeabilización se usan en los acabados. Muchas Felicidades por compartir tus conocimientos con nosotros. Un cordial saludo...
Great video and well demonstrated explained. A couple of comments (that are worth as much as you want to feel they're worth 😉): By adding that 2HP motor to yoyr mini-lathe, you've certainty upped the torque available and with a few rigidity upgrades (Steve Jordan has a few really good videos) you'll be able to make use of most, if not all that extra oomph. However, as you suggest, that does mean you gave the lathe extra oomph to hurt you with. The thing is, the only thing worse than having no safety guards on a machine tool, is having safety guards that obstruct the work you want to do. Much of the work on a lathe is done close to the chuck. That's especially true on a mini-lathe, even with rigidity upgrades. Those chuck guards can obstruct work like that. There's a reason many machinists (and not just those with mini-lathes) remove chuck guards and it's not because they've reckless or complacent. It's because the cure is worse than the disease in this case. Training yourself to never, ever, *ever* leave the chuck key in the chuck and to always know where your chuck key is on starting the machine is a vital part of any machinists safety education. Getting that habit utterly ingrained is a much more reliable safety mechanic than any electrical or mechanical safety device (which could fail without you knowing). Also, if you can get hold of one, the 'Big Red Button' e-stops (the ones that are effectively a big red button covering separate start and stop switches) are preferable to the two switch type arrangements. They're much easier to hit in a hurry and aren't particularly expensive. They'll have the same wiring as your existing switch so it would just be a straight swap wiring-wise. Lastly, I'd be cautious about emphasising too much the danger of machine tools. Yes they're potentially dangerous machines but there's also the danger of exaggerating the risk and reducing the credibility of sensible safety advice. That can lead to people without a sufficient understanding of what the risks really are, dismissing all talk of safety. 😉 Anyway, hope you don't mind me putting in my twopenn'orth. 😊
Most chinese electric machines like lathe, table saw, ... are good as a diy project. It is best to order without motor/ electronics (if possible) and complete by Do it yourself. We can save the Harbor freight's Northern tool's fee and got much better machine. .
Really interesting video and the logo sign at the end like great.
Thank you very much!
Fantastic job matey! I’ve got that book too, it’s brilliant for flicking through and getting ideas.
I do plan to try out more of the mechanisms when I get a Bamboo p1s.
What a cool project 😎
Thank you 🙏
great work! lots to learn here. You can totally export DXF and SVG for free in Fusion though. SVG requires a plugin, but for DXF just right click on the sketch on the component browser
I did try a plug in. But it just did not want to work for me. 🤷
Any more powerful motor Will less chance to get damage
Great job Martin
Cheers mate. 👍🏻
Great book and a great video you’re a mechanical bloody genius!!! It’s inspired me to try and make something with moving parts . Cheers Martin
Thank you Steve and thank you for the support. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to make.
This thing is amazing great work and great video dude!
Glad you like it! Thank you 🙏
Wow these are brilliant
Thank you.
Using a AC asynchronous motor you don't need a RPM meter, you can just use the inverter display. Then you can use a different pulley size to improve low speed torque and motor cooling while still being able to run it fast enough by "over clocking" the motor (up to 80Hz ... or more with a few electronic tricks). I also consider this type of mini lathe improvement so you video was quite interesting and useful: thank you!
🤤 Promo'SM
very cool! Now I wish I had some svg files to see how you designed them! Thankss for the video.
Glad you like them!
wow.... I guess leaving a comment in a video that is 11 months old gets removed.. thank you very much. I thought the comment I left was very productive. Why did you remove it???
I’ve never removed comments from my channel. Apart from one that was nasty on my workshop tour that was directed at me and the way I talk. What was the comment?
how did you make that rolling cover?????
To make the cuts in lightburn with the grid array tool to space out the lines by 3mm and offset sets them every other line.
That is a cool desk. Great project
Thank you. It’s really handy to have in the workshop.
Hi, Could you maybe send the file for the different joint examples, i would like to use them for the kids in my school workshop!
These sort of things will become available when I get my website up and running.
Great content.
Fancy :)
Thanks, great video, liked, subscribed, commented and saved for reference 😅😊
Awesome, thank you!
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice video.
Welcome aboard!
thanks for sharing, I learned some new ways to make joints from your video.
Glad I could help
Will you be returning?
I’m still here. Lots of planning at the moment. Hope to have a video by the end of this month if all goes well. 🤞🏻
@@oakfieldscreativeworkshop good to hear :). Looking forward to it. Sorry for pestering.
Now that you've shown us some magic, how about a video on all hinges? It'd be nice if you could share a file or recommend a link to cut these joints all in one go for 3mm & 4mm. I'm so busy now that I can hardly think... it would immensely save time. This video shares some important points that you've mastered. Cheers! Thanks for showing us how this works, subbed. Your first few tips are key to everything- everything else follows.
I’m glad you have found the video useful. More will be on its way.
The storage looks great - is there someone to get the files for your modular storage system please?
There is a website in the making.
Some really great ideas there. I loved the offset base and the radius cards. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
