Eric that’s fantastic I had no idea you were doing it all debt free that’s a real good business example! Well done! Be independent!
I got my EC Tuner 2 weeks ago and I love it. I was in the middle of a 6.5PRC build/load development when I ordered it. After dialing in the load & seating depth I went to work with the tuner. It worked perfect. I'm not a great shooter more of a hunter and hobbiest. My final 3 groups of 5 at 300 after tuning averaged .169". Absolute best I've ever shot. I'm ordering one for my 7 Rem Mag and my dad is ordering one for his 300 WSM.
Which one works for 7mm mag? Are you going with a timer with a brake or the regular ec tuner
Using 30 cal and a tuner brake
As a 20 plus year lathe programmer I enjoy seeing you learn as you deal with all the issue of machining.
A dedicated man you are. Nice work mate.
Just got my 30 cal EC tuner yesterday and will be "tuning" it in next weekend .... the quality is spectacular! Thanks for all your efforts Eric.
im very impressed with you erik..in life you get a feeling about people and i can tell your a grean man..thanks for all the vids.the world would be a better place with more people like you
Erik, you're full production now. Thanks for taking us along! 👍👍
Getting a production setup to run lights out is a study in what are all the little things that can stop a machine from running. It is amazing how when an operator is at the machine all the little stuff they do to keep it running that never comes to mind until you have to get the machine to do it by itself. Keep after it, you will get it going smoothly before long.
My tuner brake is more specialer because Erik fed it by hand.
He did say he was doing the bar feeding cheers to you for buying from Erik's

I just got it so, haven’t shot with it yet but it’s a damned nice piece. He wasn’t lying about the finish. It is exquisite. Almost too pretty to use. Almost.
I'm stoked for you, lights out machining is the only way to go for production runs. Chip management, ugh, I can't tell you how many tons upon tons of chips I've moved at the family shop in my 46 years of life. I feel you man, it's a messy job. Just make sure the recycle center pays you in cash, no reason to pay the uncle twice for material cost. 😉
I appreciate how you have taken the time to do the research and present the statistic to support your case. Thank you
You are a great guy! Giving up what most of us call time off and doing it to keep your customers happy. That is what I call integrity and dedication.
It really is amazing Erik that you are able to do this debt-free. Keep up the good work Brother. Hope everything continues to fall in place for you. I plan to put your new tuner/brake on every rifle I own and anything I build in the future. Thank you Bro.
I received my shipping notification today. I can hardly wait! EC Tuner-Brake.
Does anyone besides me think the window on that machine needs wiper blades
It needs to be a spinning risk window to click coolant off.
I was gioing to suggest this and saw you beat me to it. Erik could position a camera and start a 24 hour live channel, sure would beat watching network news.
That is considerably more efficient. Hadn't seen that part in your operation. I am enjoying watching your shop expand.
They all do that.
AVE, also is on youtube made his own insert, worth watching. I believe Erik has the tools and skills to make it happen as a DIY
Eric this is great news. Glad you are getting it working. I hope you show more of you're machine shop episodes. As a machinist I have been enjoying them.
Glad to see your progress. Got my tuner brake a few weeks back, mounted it on and started a whole new load work up leaving it on zero to fine my rifles node. Found a sweet flat line with seating depth( .015 before any huge movement). Caught the rona and now its 103+ ouside so waiting to use the tuner part and actually dial it in. Brake alone is amazing! Thank you
Erik, it's nice to see a smile on your face again after all the initial setbacks with the power company and the many other headaches you've had to deal with along the way. Can't wait to see how far you take this 3, 5, or even 10 years down the road.
This is so awesome , couldnt have worked out for a better person.
Thank you Elliott. You need to come visit.
That’s awesome you’re doing it debt free!!! I’ve learned so much from your videos
Yes so happy to see another episode 🙌 you and demo ranch are my favorite RUclipsrs! Aloha from Hawaii
Now that is production! Debt-free makes it even better. Awesome!
Great video, love watching that lathe run. Will be placing an order very soon. Thanks!
You have busted your buns to make your dream a reality and deliver a top quality product to us shooters. Job well done and THANK YOU!
Great to see everything coming together for you Erik. Great reward for the hard work and effort you put into everything you do. You can see your excitement in your videos. Good luck in your future endeavors.
I received my Tuner Brake a couple weeks ago. Haven't had time to do any testing yet but I'm excited to get to the range.
Nice addition Erik. Can’t wait for more products. I’m sure you have some ideas brewing
Good seeing another video on the shop and equipment. Thanks for sharing
Fantastic. Sounds like I'm going to get my new EC Tuner before my gunsmith finishes my rifle.
Keep up the great work. I new you could get here. I love the can do spirit. Congratulations on the progress.
Erik needs to get the smelting/casting station for the chips, to melt down and recast new bars from the chips. :-)
Haha yes, that does seem like the next logical step:-)
Thanks for the update Erik. I guess next you'll be adding a CMM to QA a sample of the parts coming off the lathe.
Just a thought for videoing the operations . some rain-ex on inside of window would clear the coolant faster so we could see better.
Good for you, wish you well
This is awesome 👌 Let's combine 2 of my favorite things manufacturing and technology and Makeing firearms
First and foremost up to this point has been for me absolutely wonderful. I can’t wait to see what the future brings for you and waiting for that next notification bell to ring!
We have this exactly same mori 2500 at work I'm cnc programmer and made a custom insert which attaches to the sub-spindle inside which fits into the I.D. of shell(cylinder shaped)parts this helps keep chips out of the ID of the sub-spindle.
That's great! I can't wait to get mine! I was just in TX the other day for work I could of stopped by and gotten another tuner break! LoL
Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
Where's Poland , hey Erik this person said he was Poland , isn't that place a fairy tail or fantasy land ... Never mind . Haha Yeah I hear it doesn't exist ... Tell me you laugh with me as I wasn't making fun of Poland as anything bad ... Well I didn't mean anything bad ...
I wish I had your dedication and drive. Inspiring.
Thanks for the update Eric, really fascinating stuff
Woke up early this morning checked out nice video and now going to shoot a match and Linden Alabama have a good day
This right here is going to be the wave of the future of small business. Manufacturing equipment will be purchased by regular Joes and manufacturing of products will be localized. Everyone get your pockets ready, because we have a chance to put the big boys out of business.
Buy longer stock??? The 30 cal went out of stock on the website. I contacted Erik and he "fixed" it because he had parts coming out of this beast. Ordered on Weds, received the following Weds! Awesome. I hope to get out and test it this weekend. thanks Erik and keep up the great work.
Awesome setup
Now you need to find something to make if you get caught up on tuners. You are doing GREAT!
You need to set up a pager system to notify you anytime it shuts off. Second, if you use a aquarium glass cleaner that uses a magnet, you can squeegee the glass clean when you want to look through the window
Got mine, getting ready to order one for my brother, very nice piece.
Amazing setup Erik keep up the great work thanks for the update
Goonzquad thinking about a barndo, might want to reach out to them, they are in Tennessee tho
Dept free ..... Eric you are a legend!!!
Put a false floor in the metal tipper bin, that way coolant can sit at the bottom of the metal bin and metal shavings sit above false floor.
I recieved my tuner brake Monday, a day early. I got something extra in the box. I'm not sure if I'm special or if that's Eric's way of saying I'm a sucker.😄
😂
Mine had a surprise with it as well.
Excellent Video! Looking forward to the Black tuners. You need to write a book, make your barrels with integrated brakes, one piece, except for the dial. Dude, hire some engineering interns! You're learning what they already know. My two pennies!
That's a great setup Erik. Try setting up a remote camera for extra piece of mind. We have a machine in our shop which runs 24/7 which has a camera which can be accessed whenever we need to check things are ok with the production or at least it's still running.
That is one awesome looking machine!! Those guys are good! Can't wait to see you cranking out some quality parts. Happy New Year Erik and stay well Sir. God Bless.
Great you are improving every day your shop 💪😊 , te veo muy orgulloso ☺️☺️
Bloody amazing. You’re are going to become the numero uno chip maker in all of Texas real soon 😄 .
Hey Erik, noticed you are removing finished parts from from the machines basket by hand. Why not place a mesh basket inside drawer, that way you be able remove a hole bunch at once. Just a thought . Love your videos. Cheers
Congratulations 🥳
Pretty cool setup, keep plugging away ..........
Next thing you need is a spin window for viewing and recording more dope content.
So happy for you that things are working well and it's making you happy and satisfied!!! 🙌😃 I'm interested in ordering the black nitrided type and posed a question on your website-- please let me know! Thanks! Your work is awesome to me!!!👊🏽👍
I see the EC scope mount in the near future...lol echale chingasos Erik. Loving these videos.
Amazing machinery. I'm sure its AI is thinking, "I'm good, Erik. You can go away now and leave me alone. I'll give you a call if I need a beer or anything."
Erik, your machine is smart enough and shut down with the error. It should have thrown an alarm too. If it’s tied in to the internet I would think you should be able to setup sending the alarm to your phone warning you it went down. Either that or thee are little external controllers you could tie into an alarm contact and that external device would send you the alarm. Just a suggestion
The glass window in the lathe door needs a windshield wiper😁
Thanks enjoy watching your vids
That bar feeder is one big and probbly very effective sleep aid for Erick.
Maybe after a while passes. For the first few days I bet he's waking up at 3am wondering if his baby is still making chips.
@@95thousandroses True, True.
good job done
I will get there, ill buy a couple
That is an awesome setup! Is there any way you could do a detail short video what the Cost of just Metal lath Machine was
That is awesome! we run a similar set up at the shop I work for. I was wondering if you had any luck with the Load monitor when parting off?
Keep up on the annual maintenance, and those machines will run for years.
Keep growing that beard
So now you need an induction furnace so you can recycle your own chips and offcuts into bar stock.
So now that you’re caught up, when are you going to program this baby to pop out different bore sizes?
Soon
Get yourself a spin window for the door. Then you can look thru to see clearly whats going on in the machine.
Are you gonna become an FFL SOT and start manufacturing NFA items?
🤷♂️
Erik I been watching this channel ever since I found it I first watched your barniminum channel I don’t really shoot but find this stuff interesting but I would appreciate it if you explained where and why the parts that are being machined are used
If you can't edit it so chips don't get stuck,can you program the coolant to give it a squirt between parts to wash chips out??.ThankQ. TkEZ>UK
What was the total cost of installing the bar feeder? Looks great!
Oops. I should have watched the whole thing. The machine has the capability.
Very cool Erik. Next step, once the fund allow, will be to add another machine to be producing another part, thereby doubling your output. Excited to see your shop grow. Congrats. Most raw material I have purchased comes in 10 foot sections. Is there a reason why you are using smaller or are you cutting the raw stock to the feeder required length?
Cutting it down to 4’
Bars are 12’
Are you building barndominiums anymore Erik? Or are you going full time with the EC Tuner business? It has been 6 months since you released a barndominium video. I enjoy this channel as much as the barndo build videos. Hope you will be posting barndominium builds again soon. 👍
“ Amazing “
so cool
Could you coat the inside of the window with RainX? It might make it easier to see through when coolant gets all over it.
Barf Eater What??? Oh... Bar Feeder 😁
You need a bar feeder that feeds the bar feeder now.
10:54 Nice...I'll never grow up haha
Nice work but I’m wondering if you are still building Brando’s! Haven’t seen a bar do video in quite a while!
so glad things are looking up for you brother. now black EC tuner break for 6mm please! i am also in san antonio so if i there is an option to save on shipping let me know lol
You were going to do a video and show us how you do it debt free. Also understand your busy.🙂
I told you, it would be worth the trouble going ahead with your CNC shop.....you will be making money while you sleep......not many can claim that..........you may be able to take in outside work when the machine is idle.......On one of my machines I rigged up a windscreen wiper squirter bottle to shoot a blast of clean water at the window when you want to quickly look in without stopping the machine.....just push a momentary button for a second and you get a clear view.......costed $20.
Why the dishwasher for parts cleaning and not an ultrasonic? Can get a decent 31 liter on the bay for under $300. Maybe just a volume thing?
SWEET!!!!!!
Get some egg crates to stack parts in. Not good to bang new parts around, just causes most finish work for you and rejects/blems.....
Hi Eric that's some serious investment not to forget the time away from the construction industry
Been trying to order one of your tuna breaks for the last being in the UK I don't know if that's possible as you said I need to speak to you UK distributor I've tried and I can't even get hold of them
Congrats brother!! Get some sleep!!!
How many hours of runtime before regular maintenance on the machine ?
No it's not the machine , it's THE MACHINE ! LoL I'm joking because that was the same name I called it for a short name as I still can't remember the real name if there's another name of other than (this thing ) as Erik calls it ...
