- Check out this awesome little $88 tool that i found on Amazon thats totally going to change the work that comes out of my shop. Adding a uniform chamfer like this really adds value to finished parts and helps speed up prep and finish time. I cant believe I didnt have one until recently! Before someone asks, no I was no paid to make this video. I have zero affiliation with this company, I just love a great deal on a useful tool!

Keep a strong magnet in a plastic bag near your work to catch the metal chips. The bag makes removing the chips from the magnet a snap.
Great little tool Just one tip learn your 10 X tables then you have the bulk of metric problems solved if the majority of the world can ; YOU CAN. A retired toolmaker from Australia
Stuff is available though other places other than Amazon don’t forget about your little guys. Nice job as always thanks
yeah amazon sucks. outside of the US i don't know anyone who uses them
Their becoming more expensive with all the individual sellers. Most buy in stores then charge super mark up price because Amazon says they can sell for way more
Amazon is used so he can get affiliate links and make money
Are they tho? Can’t tell you how many times I’ve been on a pointless goose chase for something one would see and easily get on Amazon.
Plus Amazon is a bunch of left wing socialists.
I see it as not just as a finishing tool but a prep tool for butt welds. Quick easy chamfer , faster and neater than grinding.
It would work great for prepping pipe for butt welding.
Exactly, i am thinking about this use. Thanks to the Algorithm of RUclips that recommended this video to me!
Yes, that's exactly what I thought even before he showed the pipe that I commonly work with and but weld
that's the first thing I thought of... I've used a grinder on many pipe ends... this would have been amazing to use
I am a lifelong machinist and fabricator...I love tools that make life easier! This is a great deal! Liked, and subscribed!
This tool will save a lot of time...Love the adjustable settings...great for pre-welding small projects...Thank You
5 minutes in and the decision has been made. I'm getting one.
I actually ordered 2... The second one as a small thank you gift for a guy helping me with the body work of my car build. What a great and unique gift. I will probably order more just for this reason!
Think twice. It's very noisy and high pitched.
@@ildefonsogiron4034 Too late for thinking twice.
@@ildefonsogiron4034 Try putting a gag on it.....?! Lol !
I bought one of these a while back and you are correct, it's great.
I have been in the automotive / welding industry for years and I have never seen this tool before!.. At first glance I was like big deal another die grinder!!... But I saw half a million views and stayed tuned in, Im glad I did cuz I need this tool!!.. Thanks for sharing this footage!!
Wow, very cool indeed. Ideal for weld-prep work also where an accurate chamfer needs to be specified.
What a great little bevler!! Looks like it works great. Thanks for sharing!!
That is an awesome tool- I have seen the floor standing version for cleaning large plates but never this handy hand held tool- excellent for anyone making stuff that has more than an 1/8th inch thickness
I just ordered one and have a great project to give it a try on.
Thanks for the demo. I really like this tool, so I have to get one now.
Basically a router for metal. That really does a great job. Thanks for the linfo
Interesting, for those without compressed air, using carbide inserts on a router could work well too! I have no idea if it exists but assume it should :D
@@thebibidu you could probably just use a standard router chamfer bit as most have carbide edges, but without replaceable edges that'll get pricey.
@@thebibidu just gotta use the proper RPMs for metal vs wood
Basically a mini air router for metal, awesome prep tool!
I’ve had about every sheet metal working tool over my 50+ years in the business . This one is a nice quick grabbing tool that is already set up waiting to be used. I’ll give it a try.
Nice little router for metal.
Learned about 2 good tools - including the magnetic chuck, seems good for collecting chips as well as holding work.
Thanks for showing this, I’m going to buy one, didn’t know they existed! Going to make some nice strong fillet welds
Same here. I didn't know they existed either. Looks like it'll be very useful.
Pretty cool little tool. We use a large handheld that can do around 1/2" and a self propelled on a stand that can do I believe up to 3/4". This would make a nice addition to the set.
Thank you for the review and found a new tool to add to the collection
So it is basically a hand router for metal...holy crap how have I never seen this thing? Absolute game changer.
"I dont work in metric, so im just gonna eyeball it". As an engineer in Europe i find that hillarious :D
Kidding aside, great review.. Kinda want one for the home shop
I'm not convinced that scale is even metric; it appears that it may simply be a decimal / percentage of the max cut of the tool?
Just ignorant. This statement is why I will not like/subscribe.
I get a rash every time I touch anything metric. .... We are the Americans,,,and when we were using all SAE standards we are the guys that left 2 vehicles on the moon. Now we have gone metric we can't even make a decent manual turret mill that doesn't cost 4 times what it's worth. .
Great chamfer from that tool and worth the price .. Great video Chris .
I had never heard of this tool before but was sold based on the video. Ordered one through Amazon...if you can't trust the "Boots in the field" when they say the product works...who can you trust? Great job...thanks for bringing this item to the attention of so many!!!!
adding it to the LIST!!
Cool tool and great demonstration from an actual user. Thanks
Thank you! Never seen that before
That would be super handy. Great for finishing edges on projects or use it for weld prep
I work at a tool making shop and we make end mills and drill bits for GE and the medical industry. these are a cool device for a metal worker.
The bearing, more than likely, can be found among router supplies.
Thanks CHRIS. Ordered today. The tool will arrive in May. The spare carbide inserts will arrive first week of July! Both from Amazon. Made the decision after watching your demo. Thanks!
If you gotta wait 3 weeks or more it's coming from China... Do the math...
I agree with what Lee Rattler said perfect for Bevels for welding!
Purchased one using your links. Awesome tool and great video showing what it can do. Cheers and THANKS CHRIS. 😎
Thank you man! You will get a TON of use out of this thing... Just watch those chips, little daggers...
Nice find Chris. I hope you’re having a blast up at Jimmy’s.
We used these cutter bits at work for years. They hold up well. Garr Tool in Alma Michigan is where we used to purchase them. Looks like a pretty clean chamfer that tool recreates.
you rock dude i just ordered two! thanks for your post
You rock dude ? What a tosser
This tool would save my company hours opon hours with our current methods. Thanks alot Chris ❤
It’s already saved me time!!
@@MakeEverything - hi can you tell me what name of carbide cutter , i saw 100 tools on amazon no one like your ,thanks
@@MakeEverything - i found it
@@thev5140 Well??? Spit it out man.
Wow a micro router for metal! What an awesome idea!
Dirk Devos thanks for showing us this great tool
Well my order is in. Got me for the mag base and extra cutters too. You find the coolest tools. Thanks Wish I had the mag base when I was making all these blacksmithing tools.
You got the extra cutters to? the Amazon page the link takes you/me to says "out of stock the last two days?
Cant seem to find the part number (ZA113) elsewhere on amazon either. When you get the cutters can you shoot me a reply with any other #'s or barcodes?
@@fastylep.3240 I got them threw the link. I think everything is back ordered. Not going to receive it until June.
@@Uncle_Bucks_Forge Amazon is just a convenient (Liberal/leftist) store front.....
Surely someone else more deserving could serve you?
At the very least look for 'made in Taiwan'.
Neat little bit of kit, it would be great for all types of fabrication. I can think of many uses within aircraft applications with that adjustability.
Awesome! I never knew about this tool!
Thanks for the info Chris! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
It looks like a nice simple but very effective design.
That is the coolest new tool I will be buying, thank you sir
Sweet little tool there!!
The bearing is probably the same size of bearing that I see used in router bits. See if that will work.
Really nice finishing tool
Hell, now they're down to 49 bucks on Amazon w/o new cutters and about 62 with a new set inc. The always amusing side, of cheaper tools found on Amazon, is seeing how many different brand names and colors they can make the same exact friggin tool!... This tool definitely doesn't disappoint in that department!
Great video thanks for sharing. Looks to me if you were to chamfer both inside and outside edges of that tube you’d have a fairly decent hole punch for soft thin wood or leather.
I'm sure glad that I came across this video. There are different camfering tools out there but the ones I have seen are bench mounted so you have to bring the material to the machine. The carbide cutters look like standard TCMT to me. The size is either 1/4" or 3/8" I.C. that stands for inscribed circle. This is the size of a circle that lines up with the three flat sides. The first thing that I would do after purchasing one is look at the bearing number and buy any name brand bearing.
That's a Handy little Unit! And very Quick Results! Thanku for the Heads-Up! B Safe!
I know what this little tool sounds like already.But its nice to hear it work some also..Great video!
the bearing on the end looks like one you'd see in the wheel hubs of hobby grade RC's.
Thank you for this informative video. You have shown me an excellent tool!
😎
Been using a grinder to do this for years, didn’t know these existed until a coworker asked to borrow it after looking at what I was working on…. His face when I handed him the grinder heheh. Ended up googling it and found this vid, definitely useful tool for inside corner bevels.
ID move clockwise & OD is counter. I noticed he almost do the same like how i would on wood router. Great tool & my friend is the one who actually share me the video. This could prove useful on my next project..
I can use that . Thank you for sharing.
Excellent.
Thanks for the video.. I hadn't seen these before, I like how it dresses up your gussets and mounting plates, it ad's that little something extra... so I ordered one too, cant wait to give it a try. I did find what looks like the same one, in LA California on eBay for like $38 with Free S&H
great little find and recommendation
Cool! I may get one after I upgrade my air-compressor. :)
Thanks!!
Nice! I need this! Thank You! This will make my projects look much nicer and quicker. Been using angle grinder and/or file for bevels. Didn't even think about using this on tubing! Nice also! Will make some fittings on pipes and/or exhausts better!
I didn't even know that this existed. I know that there are very expensive electric version off this tool but not this. Thanks for the the review!
I’ve had mine for 4 years, it’s brilliant. The bearings are available at any bearing store, the cutter tips are available, mine lasted for ages though. It’s for steel and soft metal only, don’t use it on stainless.
They make carbide for stainless cutting, Its a matter AS usual TO NOT LET YOUR TOOL WORK HARDEN THE STAINLESS, keep your feed aggressive and slightly less rpm
Sad to hear not with stainless steel.
Why would a carbide tool not work on stainless?
@@AlessioSangalli One of your commenters replied to you not to use it on stainless - don't now why.
@@raydreamer7566 no I understand, I was asking the dude that said that
4:53 - When I first saw the cut, smooth & neat! #thumbsup
How have i not seen this tool before?!? good vid!
I've had a small tool like that for 30years they are handy in all sorts of situations
This. Changed. My. Life.
Based on this review I bought one. You should also.
I've found many other applications. Quick, easy, and professional finish.
Great video, very cool tool. Can see how it will save you a bunch of time, esp in production environment. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Great tool, just ordered on "A" thanks for this recommendation.
It would be good practice to check the bearing and cutting screws before usage
Plz make million more of these kinds of videos.
Thanks brha! I'm getting one now, ,,👍👍👍👍
That’s an awesome tool, thanks for the demo.
Have you tried it on plasma cut aluminium sheet and plate?
The bit that got me.... "I don't work in metric" 😂... Yeah.. Your an engineer.. An American Engineer !!!
1/8ths only!
Isn't metric just common sense?!
Replacement bearings available with router bits and equipment.
That tool is very similar to a router bit used for wood working, so you may want to look at either Rockler or Woodcraft for the replacement bearings.
Very cool tool.
Thank you for sharing.
Keep the videos coming.
bad advice. chip a flute on a brazed carbide its done. where those tcmt carbide inserts are cheap. very cheap, and can be replaced one at a time.
That's pretty fantastic! Take my money! I've been using a router mounted upside down in a wooden box with a chamfer or roundover bit. Pretty expensive and sketchy.
it does look great , neater than a flap disc on inside radius.
great video, I am purchasing mine now
That bearing is probably the same as my wood router bits.
Beat me to it.
I instantly wondered what kind of cut it would make in wood.
@@markkollman870 pretty well I'm sure since rpms are probably around the same but ya can't take as big of a bit with his router as a normal wood router but for that little chamfered it does produce is probably pretty good on wood just not as adjustable
Nice! Always protect your hearing too. Once you lose hearing it never comes back.
The cut, the angle is precious and clean, also consistent
A precious, adorable, little chamfer.
@@xenonram oooooo, but is it Precise?
I do the same thing with my router and a wood bit on aluminum it is a beast
That pilot bearing looks like a standard size for router bits. The screw on end of the cutting tip should be removable to let you change the bearing. ✌
Good catch! I haven’t looked too closely at it but I’d guess you are right!
@@MakeEverything That's what RUclips is all about to me. I made a 2×72 grinder with help from videos which would have been a real bear without them. ✌
I might have to look into buying one of these thanks for sharing Chris
Why would we want to know that ?
@@tonywright8294 why not?🤷🏽♂️
@@tonywright8294 You don't need to know. Forget that in order to free space in your brain memory bank.
Thanks dude. Nice🤗
Almost didn't bother watching this with the clickbait title, but that is a nice little tool that I didn't know existed, thanks!
Same here!
It’s RUclips it’s all clickbait titles
@@snackin4335 for the scrub channels maybe. I'm here for information, not BS
Good tool, nicely done video.
Measure the dimension of thr bearing with a Micrometer and order from almost any bearing supplier.
Or take off the bearing to see if it's marked! Too many posts saying "it looks like..."
Or, just ask for a 683ZZ, as specified on the parts list (that came with mine).
Like a handheld wood router, very nice
I'm an old fart with a small shop (mostly for wood) and you have no idea how much I hate deburring with a file... Ordered.
Amazing! Very nice!
Just got one from ebay for $63.67 shipped free from China - thanks for the tip!
Great video... Useful tool
Awesome thanks for this video. It's a
"Gotta have it" tool....
