Hey guy, im from Brazil and very glad to watch you. This subject is what i was searching. Please, continue demonstrating how to achieve precision flat with the bubble level method cause it is affordabe to many of us. Thank you a lot.
Another impressive example of your work and skill. My first thought was to worry about the risk of dropping the level from the bar by accident, onto that harsh concrete. Accidents happen…. So I suggest a simple wood panel mounted around the bar, so anything that slips does not fall and get damaged. Those levels are very valuable!! Regards and best wishes from Cambridge.
This is a very useful idea. During this work, I constantly pay attention to this, I try to be as careful and accurate as possible, but sooner or later something will happen anyway. Indeed, it is much better to increase security with insurance.
This is super cool stuff. I'll never be able to use any of this knowledge but there's something about manufacturing such accuracy that really fascinates me. Even just the idea of attaching large dials to those leveling bolts is super neat!
Gena, I've enjoyed your videos and I think using an AI voice is a wise decision. I do the same on my channel. I know some people hate it, but they forget that these videos are meant for many. Also for people who have difficulty understanding English with a heavy accent. The same people forget that it is way more work to write down all your text, feed it to a voice generator and paste the spoken text back in the video. Way more work than a voiceover chatting incessantly. So you are doing many a service with this extra effort, and I applaud you for that. 👏 I myself am sometimes busy with very accurate measurements, and I wonder how you take into account the inevitable deflection of the beam due to gravity. My heavy cast iron surface plate flexes up to 3 microns under its own weight if I balance it not correctly, so the long slender beam you are using may sag even more. 1µ/m is an extraordinary result!
Metal bars will change shape if they are too long to resist gravity from one end to the other... that's why they need to be vertically thick enough too manage their own weight... and metals will expand or contract with temperature changes... Granite will not change shape... it is stable and not affected by its own weight or by temperature differentials... that's why "surface plates" are made of granite... because of their stability when their... surfaces as referances... are required for measurement purposes... His granite beam looks like sawed lumber... because it does not need to look pretty... it just needs to be massive enough to bridge the size of the surface area of the required measurement zone... As a bonus... size overkill is easy and relatively inexpensive... when done with rough sawn granite... This genius really knows his stuff... and with that knowledge... with his... "back to basics"... understanding of immutable laws of nature... develops and uses... "simple looking tools"... which can make incredibally accurate measurements... but simple tools... ???.... they are not... basic tools... ???... yes... Simple tools... ???... no... Meticulous tools... ???... absolutely... Amazing tools... ???... definately... !!!
Hello Gena (short for Gennadiy?) The measurements you are chasing are surpassingly impressive, great work! I think you should look into Hertzian contact stresses as you go along. The geometry and gauging force of the tips of your (lovely) microcators can and should be accounted for when you are looking at 100nm increments. It will have an influence on the absolute values for straightness and flatness relative to the values read from the dial. Your videos are incredible. The visualizations are some of the clearest I've seen on the topic on RUclips so far. Really well done. Also - are the microcator surface gauges still for sale? or have they all been bought already? Love from Denmark -G
To keep the stone flat as a reference surface that better to use only the Witworth method ( 3 stones A B and C ) or to grind the stone of a surface grinder with a better straightness as requested on the stones . the 3 flats / stones allow to reach incredible Hight flatness with not need of local scrapping . 2 stone surface loss the flatness , 3 never . A thing to carefully check with Witworth 3 flats is when you lap narrow surfaces and long surfaces , to stay perpendicular to avoid to generate yaw . The problem is the size of the stone compare to length of the surface to rework , if that a convex defect that ok , if that a concave defect that far more difficult as your stone work only of the edges. I use the chest board method , divide the surface in square and record each level UP/DOWN and rework each square surface , after I subdivide the previously square and over lap the pitch to avoid border effect and rework again . I am impress by the sub micron level you reach , perhaps you can try to measure '' in line'' so parallel strokes and in V so from left to right side and right to left both side with your level to check if you have yaw ?
It only seems so at first. When you measure a surface and get its relief, you seem to have second sight, you see where the highest places are, where the deepest ones are. Then you lower the highest ones, and the surface is already flatter. I did this several times, and the strip turned into a very useful and valuable tool, and most importantly, you control everything yourself and see everything.
I have done basic scraping, to true up things like a surface plate, but this is on another level. Things like a controlled temperature room and not touching the item under test etc.
I'm a Dutch machinist and fabricator who used to work on old Eastblock mills and horizontal drills like Czechoslovakian TOS and even old USSR (converted to almost working CNC) mills for workpieces up to 9 tons. I always appreciate true flatness when I see it! I do wonder why you use a pencil instead of machinist blue (or just common blue oilpaint like we used)?
Hello! I use graphite as a lubricant, it grinds into an extremely fine dust, gives good glide and does not interfere with the accuracy of measurements.
@@gena_bazarko take in consideration as pencil have a hardness and that better to B grade ( 4B or 5B are aeasy and cheap to locate ) than H grade , H grade pencil ( hard ) are also use as standard hardness testing for paint coating . I use Tungsten disulfide micro powder as that a best low friction dry lub DONT USE Molybdenum disulfide as that turn in acid with water / humidity .
I now have the technical ability to measure surfaces very accurately, so I can conduct research into how different materials behave. But this is a big job, you need to prepare for it. I am at the stage of development where I can start such a project. I'm preparing for it.
There is a bolt with a thread pitch, I don’t remember exactly now, but probably 1 mm. The jack is made simply from a bolt and two nuts, plus one washer between the nuts and epoxy glue. Some technology is performed to eliminate thread defects on the bolt from dents when pouring and transporting the bolts, and an assembly technique is used when two nuts are in such a position that the bolt rotates tightly in these two nuts, without play. This position is fixed with glue. If you need to position with an accuracy of 1 micron, this is quite enough. If we are talking about 100 nanometers, then a very fine thread or differentiated thread is needed.

Haven't I seen your video before? I guess they all seem to be the same to me. "....The peculiarity of this method is that I control the position of the measured plane. ..." It's a pretty peculiar method but I'm not going to bother to figure out what you are trying to say. It's too difficult for you to figure out and I'm not going to figure it out for you. What I find pretty peculiar is that you are from some part of the world where you can't just buy a tool if you need one and nobody has the common sense to realize that if they can't buy a necessary and fundamental tool then they should be selling them. In the light of the previous paragraph, Granite is simply easier. If we were to think through the processes of tool making, I need to make basic tool A to make basic tool B to make basic tool C...the chain of precision processes is the shortest. All you need is a lap, the flattest surface that you have and a way of checking the finished product. It is already stable and an easy material to cut with tools that need little maintenance, expense or preparation. If nobody on you your entire continent can buy a straight edge then you should plan on selling surface plates and squares as well. After-all, if nobody else has that much common sense then you can stop making suits and start making sense.
Hello! You wrote such a long comment, but unfortunately, probably due to the translation into another language, I did not understand everything exactly. Really, I'd rather make straight edge than buy it. It will be very expensive for me. And I can do it quite successfully myself, and then I can repair the metalworking machine. I think that's good.
@@gena_bazarko ...and with further thought...There is an easy way without fighting government regulations or personnel. Simply take any measuring device and measure the length of your machine ways. Then take the same measuring device and measure your straight edge only when you do so mark the best area of the straight edge in pencil. Then turn your straight edge 180 degrees measure and mark it again. Now take the straight edge over to the machine and scrape the machine so that it is the best in both orientations of the straight edge. By doing this what you will be doing is following the same procedure as is used for lapping a part.
Wow, this must be an American, one of the ones who writes thoughtlessly rude comments out of pure ignorance and with no appreciation of the circumstances someone else is living in. Gena does remarkably refined work, similar to the best anyone else has offered up for free on youtube - on the level of Robrenz, Stefan G, and other genuine practitioners. He produces extremely informative and educational material, reflecting his experience and skill. Compared to this, most commercial American engineering is at the level of someone banging rocks together. If you are able to read the news, perhaps you can guess why he is not setting up a factory to manufacture straight edges in Ukraine this year? You've not said anything interesting, and it seems very unlikely that you have even a fraction of the knowledge on display here.
Hopefully you've annealed those welding spots of the reinforcement, or you'll see later that your flat is not flat any more. Usually those flats are built from cast iron, kept outside for years to release any internal stress.
Preliminary circumstances have developed in such a way that these actions have been completed by approximately 98 percent. Because as the project progressed, the plan was adjusted.
Should it be good to have a counterweight thats have the same weight as the spirit level? That would cancel out possibel movements of the base if you started them both from the center and moved them the same distance in oppisite directions from the center for every mesurment.
When I made the body of the bubble level, I tried to make it rigid, but also lighter. At this weight, my level does not create any noticeable problems and no additional measures are needed. It would probably be possible to attach several rubber balloons with helium to it).
Well, this small crane is very simple. There will probably be a case when I show how I do something by lifting a load with this crane, then I will quickly show it in more detail what it is like).
Все ништяк, кроме нюанса, где я рамным уровнем плиту 400х400 на 3х опорах перекачивал .... стоит проконтролировать этот момент И еще вопрос - а что случилось с пузырем 3 секунды ? (0.014 мм/метр)
О, старый знакомый из Питера. Здравствуй! У меня есть одна ампула 0,01 мм\метр, это Английская ампула современного производства, я ее купил в Англии у производителя, довольно дорогая, стоила 40 фунтов. Хочу сделать для нее корпус более совершенной конструкции, анимация этого проекта есть в моих видео.
Я под свою ампулу сделал колбу, и вроде как раскрепился И родил диференциальный винт м10х0.75 и м5х0.8 Итого 0.05 за оборот Теперь надо родить корпус с 2мя твердосплавными копытами
Sorry but I don't understand your method. Did you put the bubble device in the middle and then adjusted the jack screws until the bubble was centered and then moved the whole bubble assembly across the surface left and right to see the deviation from the center position (call this a datum)?
This method consists in the fact that after each movement of the bubble level, using jacks, I bring the bubble to the central position on its scale, and from the microcators I see by what linear amount the movement occurred. We select the measurement scheme arbitrarily, based on current tasks. I have already tested this method with practice. High accuracy is achieved. I made the same surface strip with an error accuracy not exceeding one micron. In the future, I will show this work in my videos quite clearly and in detail, having done it directly on this sample.
@@gena_bazarko I think I understand what you're doing. You're using the bubble always level (perfectly horizontal) by adjusting the jack screw on the right and you read the right microkator to see what the deviation is. By traversing the bubble over the straight edge and adjusting the screw on the right, you map the surface deviations so you know where to scrap/polish or whatever you use to remove minute material
So, the fact is that in order to place the bubble exactly in the center, you need to adjust the microcator at a distance of one meter to one micron. Raise it a micron higher, and you already see that the bubble has moved away from the center to the side. Therefore, the accuracy is very high. The microcator scale is much more accurate than the bubble level scale.
/r/confidentlywrong Yes, we all know about the Whitworth method. But how do you measure where you are? And what about when you get to the point where the bottom plate is always convex, at about 2-3 microns flatness? Watch Renzetti's videos (and the others on this channel) - these guys pushed past the limits of the 3-plate method years ago.
Hello! I will need this precision strip 1070 mm by 60 mm in the near future to repair a pair of linear movement. I will complete this job in about 40 working hours, and I will have a very accurate tool that I need. Imagine if I go the route you suggested, first I need to make three surface plates 800mm by 800mm. Then, using one of these plates as a reference, make this precision strip. Do you see the difference in the difficulty of solving the problem?
You know about the three plates method, don't you? I say because it's clear you've never bothered trying it out even on a small piece and checking it, or getting it checked, which is something we nowadays can do (and you seem to), that Whitworth couldn't back in the days, though you'd find out it wasn't even needed in first place. Entire machines have been rebuilt by keeping three 1mx30mmx50mm solid stock bars flat, offering exactly the same precision than heavy plates of any material, minus their expensive maintenance, and the labour and implied lack of accuracy that implies using these with heavy parts. And please, stop using a dremmel and abusing of the stones to achieve "flatness". It's just lame, and you'll have a hard time achieving sub 1-micron continuous across that length that way. An old discarded file kept properly ground, a regular stone, and elbow grease is all that's needed to take three pieces of stock as flat as wanted. And by the time you've done it once you'll have already mastered the technique to the point where right after applying the blue, you eyes can tell you where you are with a high degree of accuracy. It's not that hard, there's no need for tungsten carbide tips, super-duper precisely flat stones made of star dust, or electric scrappers.
Hello! Now I need to make this straight edge for practical work, the surface grinding machine is disassembled, and I need this straight edge to repair it. The three-slab method, in this case, is an extremely long way, and very expensive, you need three slabs of 800 by 800 millimeters, they need to not only be available, but also scraped out, before scraping out this straight edge from them. Using my method, I will get the result I need in a week. You can scrape it with a scraper, you can with a Dremel, it doesn’t change the essence, only the flatness in the end is important. I'm not against the scraper at all.
You can make the three plates method with three rectangular bars, no need for a plate. Make one of the sides squared and that's all you need for that job. It's not expensive, it does take some labour (two or three working days, depends on you) and that's all. Every time you want to use it you check it and give it a light scrap if needed, as it tends to release internal stresses overtime, and it's ready for whatever you want it to do. Most surface grinders don't even come scraped, so you would end up with something better than new. And again, no, dremmels are not used for the most part, and much less the lousy way you're using it. Abusing the stone to flatten afterwards will only create several sub-planes where you just want to have a single continuous one. You'll have a harder time achieving sub 1-micron with you current method that would of doing things *as they should be*.
@@stupid-handle Hello! Thank you for outlining what you see as a more rational approach to solving this problem. Perhaps at this moment, I don't fully grasp everything from what you've written. As I understand it, to create a plane using the three-plate method, square blanks are needed to allow for a 90-degree rotation of the blank. Regarding the Dremel, I don't believe it's the best method, but I have used it, and it does work, albeit perhaps not as well as other methods. When working with this blank, I'll likely try using a scraper. I'll be posting new videos over time about this project. If you watch them, please share your thoughts.

When I made the body of the bubble level, I tried to make it rigid, but also lighter. At this weight, my level does not create any noticeable problems and no additional measures are needed. It would probably be possible to attach several rubber balloons with helium to it).
Its impossible for alot of us to find a microkator at a reasonable price .if you ever have any to sell that would be very helpful

Id be interested in a video about your wooden crane at the start of the video
Well, this small crane is very simple. There will probably be a case when I show how I do something by lifting a load with this crane, then I will quickly show it in more detail what it is like).

И еще вопрос - а что случилось с пузырем 3 секунды ? (0.014 мм/метр)
О, старый знакомый из Питера. Здравствуй! У меня есть одна ампула 0,01 мм\метр, это Английская ампула современного производства, я ее купил в Англии у производителя, довольно дорогая, стоила 40 фунтов. Хочу сделать для нее корпус более совершенной конструкции, анимация этого проекта есть в моих видео.
Был же китайский пузырь ?
По англицкой ампуле видео не сделаете ? Хотя в текущих реалиях того, что нельзя называть, врятли получится заказать такую
Я под свою ампулу сделал колбу, и вроде как раскрепился
И родил диференциальный винт м10х0.75 и м5х0.8
Итого 0.05 за оборот
Теперь надо родить корпус с 2мя твердосплавными копытами
А еще, на этот акаунт уведомлялки не приходят, приходится отдельно помниьь и чекать кто чьо отвечал ....

Sorry but I don't understand your method. Did you put the bubble device in the middle and then adjusted the jack screws until the bubble was centered and then moved the whole bubble assembly across the surface left and right to see the deviation from the center position (call this a datum)?
This method consists in the fact that after each movement of the bubble level, using jacks, I bring the bubble to the central position on its scale, and from the microcators I see by what linear amount the movement occurred. We select the measurement scheme arbitrarily, based on current tasks. I have already tested this method with practice. High accuracy is achieved. I made the same surface strip with an error accuracy not exceeding one micron. In the future, I will show this work in my videos quite clearly and in detail, having done it directly on this sample.
@@gena_bazarko I think I understand what you're doing. You're using the bubble always level (perfectly horizontal) by adjusting the jack screw on the right and you read the right microkator to see what the deviation is. By traversing the bubble over the straight edge and adjusting the screw on the right, you map the surface deviations so you know where to scrap/polish or whatever you use to remove minute material
So, the fact is that in order to place the bubble exactly in the center, you need to adjust the microcator at a distance of one meter to one micron. Raise it a micron higher, and you already see that the bubble has moved away from the center to the side. Therefore, the accuracy is very high. The microcator scale is much more accurate than the bubble level scale.
👍👍
Precisely flat surfaces can be done with the three plates method. It does not need precise instruments.
/r/confidentlywrong
Yes, we all know about the Whitworth method. But how do you measure where you are? And what about when you get to the point where the bottom plate is always convex, at about 2-3 microns flatness? Watch Renzetti's videos (and the others on this channel) - these guys pushed past the limits of the 3-plate method years ago.
@@rodfrey The improved Whitworth method proposes using a paint to track the progress... And, as for the precision, I guess, repeating is the way ...
Hello! I will need this precision strip 1070 mm by 60 mm in the near future to repair a pair of linear movement. I will complete this job in about 40 working hours, and I will have a very accurate tool that I need. Imagine if I go the route you suggested, first I need to make three surface plates 800mm by 800mm. Then, using one of these plates as a reference, make this precision strip. Do you see the difference in the difficulty of solving the problem?
How do you establish initial level points? How do you translate them to the other 2 points?
You know about the three plates method, don't you? I say because it's clear you've never bothered trying it out even on a small piece and checking it, or getting it checked, which is something we nowadays can do (and you seem to), that Whitworth couldn't back in the days, though you'd find out it wasn't even needed in first place.
Entire machines have been rebuilt by keeping three 1mx30mmx50mm solid stock bars flat, offering exactly the same precision than heavy plates of any material, minus their expensive maintenance, and the labour and implied lack of accuracy that implies using these with heavy parts.
And please, stop using a dremmel and abusing of the stones to achieve "flatness". It's just lame, and you'll have a hard time achieving sub 1-micron continuous across that length that way.
An old discarded file kept properly ground, a regular stone, and elbow grease is all that's needed to take three pieces of stock as flat as wanted. And by the time you've done it once you'll have already mastered the technique to the point where right after applying the blue, you eyes can tell you where you are with a high degree of accuracy. It's not that hard, there's no need for tungsten carbide tips, super-duper precisely flat stones made of star dust, or electric scrappers.
Hello! Now I need to make this straight edge for practical work, the surface grinding machine is disassembled, and I need this straight edge to repair it. The three-slab method, in this case, is an extremely long way, and very expensive, you need three slabs of 800 by 800 millimeters, they need to not only be available, but also scraped out, before scraping out this straight edge from them.
Using my method, I will get the result I need in a week.
You can scrape it with a scraper, you can with a Dremel, it doesn’t change the essence, only the flatness in the end is important. I'm not against the scraper at all.
You can make the three plates method with three rectangular bars, no need for a plate.
Make one of the sides squared and that's all you need for that job. It's not expensive, it does take some labour (two or three working days, depends on you) and that's all.
Every time you want to use it you check it and give it a light scrap if needed, as it tends to release internal stresses overtime, and it's ready for whatever you want it to do.
Most surface grinders don't even come scraped, so you would end up with something better than new.
And again, no, dremmels are not used for the most part, and much less the lousy way you're using it. Abusing the stone to flatten afterwards will only create several sub-planes where you just want to have a single continuous one.
You'll have a harder time achieving sub 1-micron with you current method that would of doing things *as they should be*.
@@stupid-handle Hello! Thank you for outlining what you see as a more rational approach to solving this problem. Perhaps at this moment, I don't fully grasp everything from what you've written. As I understand it, to create a plane using the three-plate method, square blanks are needed to allow for a 90-degree rotation of the blank. Regarding the Dremel, I don't believe it's the best method, but I have used it, and it does work, albeit perhaps not as well as other methods. When working with this blank, I'll likely try using a scraper. I'll be posting new videos over time about this project. If you watch them, please share your thoughts.
