@John Doe Wiki - "Broaching is a machining process that uses a toothed tool, called a broach, to remove material. There are two main types of broaching: linear and rotary. In linear broaching, which is the more common process, the broach is run linearly against a surface of the workpiece to effect the cut." Merriam-Webster - Broach is "to open up (a subject) for discussion" They used the homophone "broach" as a pun. Wiki - "The pun, also called paronomasia, is a form of word play that exploits multiple meanings of a term, or of similar-sounding words, for an intended humorous or rhetorical effect." That's why it's funny.
Funny what a mere 7 years does to one's voice AND personality on camera!!! He'd have made 5 minutes of silliness by now...... I'm really glad he loosened up a bit...... The stick up the butt Ave isn't nearly as much fun to watch then as he is now!!! MUST be PRE Chickadee!!!
I already had a brooch borrowed from my grandma with a nice figure of a cat like animal on it. It did not produce acceptable results and Grandma was not happy either. Please be more specific with instruction before condemning your viewers to distressing and difficult situations. (Great video really)
I heard that I'm thinkin summer teeth! I'm guessing explosion reaction of steel bits fracturing off flying in all directions cracking or chipping teeth, hence allowing for airflow even maybe a whistle, but I've never heard that expression before.
I saw nothing wrong in this video. I can't believe the comments on here. AvE good job. People need to know feeds and speeds and the different cutting compounds available out there. The fact the drill was smoking proves you had a cutting compound on. The drill wasn't too fast for a 3/8 diameter. Belt driven drill presses always sound faster than they are really going. Also the drill bit never changed colour, the chips were silver and didn't turn purple which means you weren't cutting anywhere near too fast. I could brag about my credentials and certificates and pieces of paper too. It's what you can do, and what you really know, that proves your true abilities. Natural talent and innovation will always be worth more than a shitty piece of paper, this is why you can machine without a certificate for a living.
Theres guys at my work who are red seal tool and die guys and there the biggest hacks I've ever seen in my life and they think their gods cause they got a piece of paper.
In Africa we use water as a coolant.. Why? because the bosses are too cheap to buy proper coolant 😂 we say 'skuma twende' which loosely translated means 'if its working lets keep going' 😂😂😂 so i agree with you as long as the desired result was achieved the process can go to hell
I was using a rotary tool, i feel like a tool now.. I owe you years of education watching these videos. God bless 🙏 and, thank you for making learning interesting!
When I was 18, in 1978, I got a job at a small 30 person manufacturing plant, (there used to be a lot of those), one day a month I needed to broach a couple hundred parts, we used an arbor press with about a 2 ft. long handle on it. It was hard as hell to force that broach through, I started with the handle almost straight up, a little forward of TDC, I had to hang onto the handle, and let my legs drop out from under me, it took all my 180 lbs. to get that broach moving, that was the easy part, because that was only about halfway through, keeping the handle going to get the broach the rest of the way through was the hard part, it was a hell of a workout, and I'd be covered in oil. I'm sure there is a machine doing that now.
Wow. I saw this 7 years ago, watched it again today. It reminded me why I started watching. Amazingly, he didn’t end the video with “keep your stick on the ice” like I was expecting! Of course, the “new” end phrase will forever be expected from now until the earth stops circling the sun! The fact that he literally used a vice in this video really left me wanting to hear the send off phrase!
I love your videos man. Thanks for showing us how to do seemingly complicated things with everyday tools! As my grandfather said "It ain't rocket science... well, unless it's rocket science."
Holy cow. Last summer I bought a bucket full of tools for $10. It had a bunch of them weird tools. Now I know it's a broach. Things are lookin up for me. The stars are lining up. 🌟 🌟
Try rounding out the bottom of the broach to fit your starting hole diameter. Then cut your relief cuts. The broach will start round, as does the hole, then works itself into a square. No file work that way. You would have to make the broach longer with a longer tapper, but it works. Just sharing...nice work here, well done.
I don't know why people are complaining. He said at the beginning there were other ways to do it. Some of us live a ways from the store, don't want to wait for an online purchase to come or just like making our own tools. I liked it.
This is really cool. I’ve been working in machining for 20 years, I’ve heard of broaching, but never actually saw it in action I’m sure the industrial version of this is basically the same concept
I'd have to say his drilling is fine. It's fast, clean, no spaghetti and by the looks of it there is some kind of lube going on there. The smoke coming from the chips indicates al lot of the heat is transferred to them, not in to the drillbit. Also, the chips are not blue, indicating that it's not overheating anywhere. Drillbit looks fine too. Lastly, the reciprocating drilling technique he's using prevents te drillbit from overheating or re-grinding of the chips in the drill hole. All in all, a fine job, Sir.
***** I'm pretty sure Gary Mayo is referring to the fact that you're running the drill press WAY too fast for a 3/8" hole in steel. Sign of an amateur.
I like the broaching. I used to not own a shop press. I was able to straighten out the acme thread on my big, heavy 6" vise after using it for a press. Now I own a press.
What's with all these ignorant Joe handymen that are so confident in telling a machinist how to drill a hole properly? You people wouldn't know how to calculate the ideal RPM even if you knew what the drill bit and material were. In this application a carbide drill bit shouldn't use coolant and should turn at 2-3K RPM. There's no chatter and it's making good chips but you never saw chips smoke in your high school shop so the professional must be wrong.
john saunders Are you sure it wasn't two head injuries? I'm guessing you want to be a teacher so you can get paid to talk down to people. I've met a lot of smart tradesmen and none of them toot their own horn. The loudest guy in the room is the weakest. Or maybe it's the internet so you can be whoever you want and you choose a tin banging, boiler/ tool making, pipe welding, engine tuning, super engineering douche. Or maybe you're the outlier; a condescending genius prick that mixed up his numbers by accident. He doesn't say what material he's using but I'm guessing it's not brass. Assuming it's mild steel the cutting speed should be roughly 30 SMM. (318 x 30) / 9.5 = 1004 RPM. I used the imperial equation and got close that. (CS x 4) / dia. = RPM. I'm not sure why you used a metric equation on a 3/8" drill. As a rule of thumb carbide bit speeds should be 2-3X that of a HSS bit. That's how I got 2-3K RPM. Before you say it, I know it's rough and there are lots of variables that would make it faster or slower. It's a ballpark calculation just like your equation. If he can afford a milling machine he can afford some carbide bits. There are other reasons for not buying a broach. And stop spelling he'd as "hid". BTW, I'm a rocket scientist, lawyer, rock star that can bench 280 lbs. I won the elementary spelling bee last year so I'm pretty sure that qualifies me to be a spelling nazi on youtube.
***** You guys can laugh at john all you want but he is 100% correct. Any real machinist can easily tell a carbide bit from a standard hss bit by the color.
***** So I think it's about time we ask you about what's going on instead of all this name calling over a guess. What is the drill bit made of and how fast were you running it?
john saunders Wrong stupid 400 per inch for HSS and mild steel is more likley. And the proper equasion is (Cutting Speed x 12)/(pi x dia) And How do you fucks know its not carbide tipped drill. And second of all, maybe hes just drilling it quickly as to not lose people attention for the sake of a youtube video. not everything ia always black and white.
john saunders You might have learned to use the metric system Johnny Boy but you are sore lacking in the spelling and grammar department. (ignoramace, simplten, sory, Rushians, metris,) But you are Australian. I'm sure your "Mates" are proud. I think the rest of you folks are jealous that this man has the ability you don't and he's willing to do it. you see it's not always about buying the tool. making it increases you skills!
Pretty square holes can indeed be drilled. They used the method to drill the holes in the plates that railroad spikes go through. The 2 flute drill would go into a floating type ring which allowed the drill to walk around and drill the square hole.
You are miles above me with an angle grinder! Mine would not have looked that good, so I went another route. I needed some 1/2 inch square holes and where I live, I must drive an hour to find a tool store. I did have a 1/2 inch square file that was useless, so I cut slots in it with a bit of relief, cut it to length, and hammered it through my round holes. Thanks for this video. I now have my snowblower fixed
One of the things I like about square files is how they're tapered to allow you to get those straight edges in square holes. Assuming you're working with mild steel, judging by the thickness, if you marked it out on both sides and filed it, the job would have taken 20-30 minutes. Making the broach and then using it probably took a couple of hours at least. But now you have a broach, that doesn't seem to work very well...!;) But hey, I'm the guy who took three days to straighten a Ford Mondeo suspension arm (that some bastard mechanic had bent) using a combination of blocks, levers and vices, two straight edges, a homemade hardwood jig, blocks of wood, a jack and a fucking huge hammer!;))). Saved over £1,000 in parts and labour.
I needed a square hole and followed your video and it came out perfect. I torched my home made broach for the last four passes and it was the right size. Thanks, Norman
You'd think that a lot of these folks were buying your bits the way they go on about your choice of cutting speeds. Cool video, thanks for the info. Don't know if I'll ever have to cut a square hole, but now I know how, and as good ole G.I. Joe used to say, "knowing is half the battle".
Great Video. I will remember this and use it. I already have a task at had for it. I have to admit that reading some of the comments below made me realize just how far our society has slipped. There are some people who can't get the job done because they are overly caught up in the process. Great job, really liked the video.
Wow people criticizing over the speed of the drill, I have a small Rockwell delta that does not run slow enough for a 3/8 drill myself, I use oil and know I'm not gonna get a lot of life outta the drill, so what, ya work with what ya got...this was a nice little video and I appreciated it
Thank you. I needed to do this and was dreading the job. You made me have confidence to start and finish the job. Home made custom tools for the win!!!
You son make me proud that I aced grade ten You have all of my RESPECT . I built dozens of Aluminum go cart wheels . Still have got 1 . Square peg in a round whole !
i needed to make a square hold in the firewall of my 70 impala for a throttle cable to lock into so i just made a mount and mounted a file to a sawzall it worked wonders lol.
Definitely like the ability to make our own tools with what we already have laying around versus spending the time and gas money locating a quality tool in our local area or having to wait for it to be shipped to us.
I have always been a super fan for many sun cycles.I have learned lots of what to do and what not to do.. I usually watch on my gamestations app which has no comment capabilities. From my sprocket making days to gun drilling days... Respect to you the angry pixies, and mountains of chips you have carved out ..Thank you for many years of entertainment and to many more. Im great at deep cleaning a Haas if you know any sludgy machines. and folks never lend out the refractometer ..its a good way to get pinkeye
Thank you for this instructive video. I have two questions, though: what type of steel was your workpiece made of, and, in particular, what type and hardness of steel was the piece you made the broach with?
Critics are like the colon, full of fecal matter. Nothing wrong with constructive criticism when one points out improvements, but my respect always goes to the guy/gal actually doing something. It can always be improved upon.
Very creative Sir. I've ordered many really expensive broaches over the years. I have a modern machine shop and heat treat oven. I don't think I'll buy another broach again after seeing this.
Damn dude i just came across this video and i was like who in the hell is this!? it doesn’t even seem like its you! You’re videos have came a long way, but have always been helpful!
I am not criticizing this video as you are showing people a method of doing things. I am a qualified tool and die maker, and I think it would have been quicker to file it though I understand patience is not everyone's strong point Back in the day prior to spark erosion...most dies were filed by hand, and it is truly amazing how good one can become at it with practice.
I have never seen a more deceptive video title. "How to drill a square hole with no special tools" literally starts with "Well, it's not really drilling and you need this special tool."
The idea behind heating the broach is that the tool will expand as its heated, therefore it will slightly enlarge the hole as its pressed thru a second time.
For many years I thought that when we need to remove a rusty bolt I had to heat up the bolt it self ,but 2 months ago I just realized that I was doing wrong. But what really need to expand is the reciver. Not the other way around, since them I've stop brake things and retreat as well.
Such a nice, relaxed and well spoken man. I hope he makes it big doing more of these interesting tool videos.
oh boy

You'd think that a lot of these folks were buying your bits the way they go on about your choice of cutting speeds. Cool video, thanks for the info. Don't know if I'll ever have to cut a square hole, but now I know how, and as good ole G.I. Joe used to say, "knowing is half the battle".
Astroglide was developed originally for cooling and lubricating on the space shuttle.
Really nice of the state of Michigan to sponsor him! I'm sure it won't effect his later videos.
I can actually smell that metal when you drilled it.
Great Video. I will remember this and use it. I already have a task at had for it. I have to admit that reading some of the comments below made me realize just how far our society has slipped. There are some people who can't get the job done because they are overly caught up in the process. Great job, really liked the video.
Is this before he became skookum as frig?
Wow people criticizing over the speed of the drill, I have a small Rockwell delta that does not run slow enough for a 3/8 drill myself, I use oil and know I'm not gonna get a lot of life outta the drill, so what, ya work with what ya got...this was a nice little video and I appreciated it
excellent video, and the comments are priceless.
Lol the contrast between this and your newer videos is huge, thanks for adding the comedy over the years
It’s amazing to hear how subdued our beloved AvE was early on compared to now 😂
Thank you. I needed to do this and was dreading the job. You made me have confidence to start and finish the job. Home made custom tools for the win!!!
So... has anyone broached the subject of putting a square peg into a round hole yet?
:D
Crazy this is the same channel. Glad you loosened up and have more fun being a character. Good on ya mate!
The simple ways always workBest John
This videos has such great memories for me. First broaching video never even heard of it prior. More importantly 1AvE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ah, this must have been from the years before AvE discovered the secret about where to keep his stick.
Gotten a little more swagger since this video was made. Always enjoyable!
Take a shot every time he says broach.
+Riftkin That what I was thinking
thinking the same here
You guys are alcoholics
+AceandDuce HAHA
+Riftkin im not the only one
You son make me proud that I aced grade ten You have all of my RESPECT . I built dozens of Aluminum go cart wheels . Still have got 1 .
Square peg in a round whole !
2:54 Thank you for the good laugh I had looking up the definition of "summer teeth" on urban dictionary.
i needed to make a square hold in the firewall of my 70 impala for a throttle cable to lock into so i just made a mount and mounted a file to a sawzall it worked wonders lol.
I only found this video now, over 3 years later. Holy crap your voice changed over time.
Definitely like the ability to make our own tools with what we already have laying around versus spending the time and gas money locating a quality tool in our local area or having to wait for it to be shipped to us.
“A bit of astroglide” Hahahah
I have always been a super fan for many sun cycles.I have learned lots of what to do and what not to do.. I usually watch on my gamestations app which has no comment capabilities. From my sprocket making days to gun drilling days... Respect to you the angry pixies, and mountains of chips you have carved out ..Thank you for many years of entertainment and to many more. Im great at deep cleaning a Haas if you know any sludgy machines. and folks never lend out the refractometer ..its a good way to get pinkeye
Thank you for this instructive video. I have two questions, though: what type of steel was your workpiece made of, and, in particular, what type and hardness of steel was the piece you made the broach with?
+AvE Says m2 right on the bar. Were you drunk? I am.
It is crazy how much more comfortable on the camera you are now
Isn't it obvious? You just have to use a square drill bit!
So funny how different you sound nowadays. Much more fun to watch now.
Critics are like the colon, full of fecal matter. Nothing wrong with constructive criticism when one points out improvements, but my respect always goes to the guy/gal actually doing something. It can always be improved upon.
Or 'how to fit a square peg into a round hole'.
critics know how to sniff out bad eggs...but not how to lay good ones!
Very creative Sir. I've ordered many really expensive broaches over the years. I have a modern machine shop and heat treat oven. I don't think I'll buy another broach again after seeing this.
i wonder how fast a reticulating saw with a file rigged to it would work.
chris11sholtz I like that idea.
Pretty fast but it would also ruin the file faster
You cant file HSS, the work-piece is harder than the tool.
You can buy reciprocating air files
Flying lead ever bought a bastard file before?
So many thanks for your really interesting video, broaching I have seen advertised but never knew what it was, thanks again!
When I need to cut circles,I use a circular saw....
I usually just watch these videos for easy entertainment, but this is just goddamn impressive
My friends and I have made a drinking game of this video. We drink every time you say the word Broach. Timmy went to the hospital. Ralph died. =0p
I thought you were joking at first. Then I picked up on the genuine teaching tone.
Is this the same guy? Well it's 8 years old so...
Practical engineering channel sent me. Subscribed and will be watching your channel.
So much change in only three years...
Damn dude i just came across this video and i was like who in the hell is this!? it doesn’t even seem like its you! You’re videos have came a long way, but have always been helpful!
I am not criticizing this video as you are showing people a method of doing things.
I am a qualified tool and die maker, and I think it would have been quicker to file it though I understand patience is not everyone's strong point
Back in the day prior to spark erosion...most dies were filed by hand, and it is truly amazing how good one can become at it with practice.
Totally agree. Filing is completely underestimated.
you sir are a gentleman of distinction,
thanks AvE for scoping it out,great job.
Hopefully this won't be repeated again...needless lost lives.. from Stupid decisions and actions by others.
I have never seen a more deceptive video title. "How to drill a square hole with no special tools" literally starts with "Well, it's not really drilling and you need this special tool."
I always wanted to try to make a broach. Great video . I don't know why anyone would have a negative comment?
why did you soften the broach for the cleaning pass heating it. why did it help
The idea behind heating the broach is that the tool will expand as its heated, therefore it will slightly enlarge the hole as its pressed thru a second time.
I've been watching your videos too long. Crazy brother.
i have a broach that i use to scratch my balls when they're itchy, i made it myself.
For many years I thought that when we need to remove a rusty bolt I had to heat up the bolt it self ,but 2 months ago I just realized that I was doing wrong. But what really need to expand is the reciver. Not the other way around, since them I've stop brake things and retreat as well.
