Machining a bottle opener on the Syil X7!

- In this video I'll give an overview of the toolpaths for the program and then we'll head out to the garage to machine the top side, soft jaws, and flip side to complete this bottle opener.
I'm a CAD designer, I'm a CAM Programmer, I'm not a video editor or videographer. I'll get better over time, but it will take time. I'll continue to work on keeping the spray off the camera and hopefully add another camera angle or two.

Love your videos buddy
Good to see this video!! Been waiting for this! Watched all your recent videos as well and glad to see you’re back! You have a wealth of knowledge that’s worth gold!
Loving these linked cad/cam/milling vids. Thanks so much for doing them Kevin.
Machine is running great! Love the Hangsterfers coolant!
Yeah I'm getting my feet under me pretty well with the machine now. I need to do a little coolant TLC. It's been pretty hot all summer and I haven't checked the concentration. I have a feeling it is a little high right now due to evaporation. I've been super happy with it so far. I really like that it isn't a puddle of milk and it isn't a corroder like Blaser Synergy is.
@@MechanicalAdvantage no corrosion on the new blend of Blaser 735, I know a number of people using it with zero issues, and near to me is Dowty who make aircraft under carriage, and that’s all they use there.
My X7 has only had it in it for a few months, so to early to say it’s fine in mine.
Nice Job Kevin!
Thanks for sharing!
Good work Kevin. Another great video from you mate. Cheers 🍻. Aaron
PS: notice I made no references to metric or blood letting 😂
That’s impressive. You are getting better Aaron! 😁
Ahh ya should have cracked open a cold 1 to make sure it works!
Very cool video, nice work! But will it open a bottle???
I actually made one of these in the NYC CNC classes Kevin taught and I can tell you that after 8 month’s of use I’m still using mine no problem at all!
Hi,
Another good one. Can I request more on blend? I’ve not used it on machine, been a little confused on the contour and face selection.
Cheers
Alistair
Hi again,
Commenting during vid so… apologies if answered
First, the10k spindle speed sure makes my haas mini mill at 6 k look slow. Second, loved the coolant flow then it slowed… is that to chips in pan restricting recirc?
Ha! You noticed. Nope, that was me trying to control the flow so it didn’t completely spray the camera. There is a valve that lets you switch between the coolant on the machine and the wash down hose. I was trying to turn down the coolant pressure by moving the valve more to the wash down hose.
Yeah, I’m sorry for jumping the gun. Great volume of coolant. Coolant looked quite clear, what are you using?
Hangsterfers 5080 semi-synthetic. Aaron Powter uses the same, but I’m running it at a lower concentration of about 5%. I think Aaron runs closer to 10% - 12%.
Thanks,
I have brain stone about what the name of the coolant I’m using right now, haas mini mill. But I do notice, what with pulling out chips from pan ( no conveyor or auger, by hand) and warm shop temps , coolant disappears.

I’m going to press you on doing a vid on blend. I use scallop to try to match . Well actually I use 3D contour and scallop. I’m pissed that steep and shallow is an expensive add to paid up fusion. Tell me blend can help :-)
Alistair
I’m not sure blend is a good substitute for steep and shallow. Though there may be a toolpath that will make you pretty happy. I’ll let you know when I know more.
Thanks,
I seem to get parts from a recurring customer that loves to present parts that call for steep and shallow. And I used that tool path when it was in the free period.
Alistair
Coolant back, sorry :-)
Thank you for your video posting! I have a question. What mean MMPT and MPM?
Millimeters per tooth, millimeters per minute.
Windscreen Wipers? When you flipped into the soft Jaws you had the piece flush on top of the Jaws?
Maybe an air knife or something like that. The piece wasn't quite flush. There was .125" sticking up above the soft jaws. Enough for the chamfer tool to go below the top surface of the model without worrying about it getting into the soft jaws.
Bt40?
Hey mate, how hard have you pushed that 9.5mm endmill DOC/WOC wise?
I haven’t pushed too hard. About 20% tool diameter, 2x diameter depth of cut. .0035 ipt (.09mm) at 10,000. I have 2,000 RPM to go and can probably get to that 30% stepover, 2.5x diameter depth range.
This is one of the things I want do in a future video. Test some material removal rates and compare some things like both ways adaptive to one way adaptive.
I’m toying with the idea of seeing if I can achieve the 6 cubic inch per horse power that shear hog people advertise. Theoretically I could hit 45 cubic inches per minute (737 cc). Not sure I will try to push that hard though.
