    I love how you are moving into manual machining, and combining with your previous mastery of additive manufacturing to simplify layout and marking.
    Keep up the good work!

      It's reverse of how I learned machining. Back in the seventies, we had machines to learn on in shop class. Then out into real shops. Learning spray metal, welding, and making. My brother has a variable inverter in his shop. We have a old lathe and mill. And a assortment of machines. He got a Ender 3 pro printer. We are moving to a new location, with more room for expansion.

    "You have to drive as if you are invisible to everything else on the road". Truer words were never spoken. Until you really understand and believe this, you shouldn't be attempting anything on two wheels. Long time subscriber, first time commenter, love your channel, great video, thank you for all your inspiration and creativity!

    I’m really happy just to see you putting out another video, and that you’re all ok and still looking great!
    And, you’re right about the build quality. I could see they’ve used much better or higher spec’d hardware, so that’s at least one danger removed.

    We love taking a ride with you, Noami. Shenzhen is such a beautiful and interesting city, especially at night.The bike is a step foreword. I think they are working out their designs domestically in China before entering the export market. They are almost there. Thanks so much for all the DYI machining know-how. You are an inspiration to do-it-yourselfers.

    Was someone driving behind you to do the distance shots of you on the bike? That looked great!
    Really happy you're sticking to longer form videos; especially from makers I think things like TikTok and RUclips Shorts just aren't as fun to watch because you just don't have the chance to get into the meat of the review or project, even though the depth and detail is really important. Thanks for another cool video Naomi.

    As a long-time motorcyclist, absolutely great safety advice throughout this video that applies equally to operating any two-wheeled (especially motorized) vehicle! Nobody else sees you, and you should be riding something that is both capable enough and you're comfortable enough operating that you can notice and get _yourself_ out of any bad situation somebody else can put you in regardless of who's right or wrong. Interesting e-bike with some nice upgrades, and a reasoned and well presented review!

    This is a great video! I like how you are using your 3D printing knowledge to help with other parts of your builds. Old skills support the new ones!
    And the voice-over is new, explaining what you're doing as you go. It's fun to see how your You Tube channel continues to evolve. Especially in spite of the roadblocks You Tube has thrown at you over the years.
    So impressed, proud and happy for you!!! 🎉

    Very cool review, Naomi ! Nice to see you're healthy and still active. Your advice is excellent : " Remember that you're invisible and always wear your protective gear! " I've been weaving my motorcycle(s) through heavy traffic for 17 years to work (in Brussels!) and you're absolutely right! I always say to every other biker "Stay safe. You are only immortal for a limited amount of time."

    @johnstevenperez4186 Год назад

    As an owner and rider of the K4, a helmet, good pants, gloves and rugged shoes is a must. Like you, I fashioned an extended luggage rack (10"x14") with an 30" extended upright matching the backrest. With that I was able to attach a bicycle turning signals on the top so any cargo wouldn't block the lights. Going to add LED light strips after seeing yours. Plus add those cool mirrors of your too. I got my K4 up to 52 MPH on flat ground but my battery use was significant. Being able to scoot away is a big plus compared to most e-bikes and e-scooters. I had one crash due to leaning into a turn too steep and slid away. Hence the pants and gloves. Part of the learning curve, Thanks for the review and looking forward to more of your e-bike rides.

    Prototyping parts can take a while to get it working as intended but i really enjoy your creativity using 3d print part to do metal work pretty creative nice work. Sure can be pain to prototype it but once made u can replicate it almost anytime.The Bull K6 E-Bike seems nice with the ability for custom work its definitely a worthy check. It seems little unstable but hopefully that back installment will make it more stable on road adjusting the weight a bit. Customizing it is always a plus its also nice mention that it can be fixed with ease on the go and parts are not that hard to find overall.Thank you for showing the creative work on the customs awesome as always!

Keep safe - loved the mods you made 😊 and love bikes so great to see this type of content! 👍🏻👍🏻

  • @everettplummer9725
    @everettplummer9725 Год назад +2

    A machinist tip, center drills turn fast. Speed increases as diameter decreases. A 12 mm drill should should turn around 400 rpm, same as a 12 mm piece in the lathe. The center diameter of a center drill, determines rpm. So maybe a 1,000 rpm or more, for small drills. Low speed tends to break them, by taking off more than they can chew.

    As a motorcyclist, I can't recommend anything with that low of a seat height. Being able to see, and be seen better, is of key importance. Just being able to see into people's windows so you can see who's on their phone instead of driving is worth it alone.
    Also, props to you for testing in full gear. Eye candy is nice, but a lady who knows how important it is to cover up in safety gear is much better!
    Keep being smart and fabulous Naomi!

    Cheers Naomi. As a cyclist, I have my fair share of broken bones et-al. I love how you ingeniously explain the need for and the consequences of not wearing a helmet etc. "get a organ donor card". I trained at Uni of South Australia as an electronic engineer, however we did one semester in the mechanical engineering workshop, plus at high school a semester in metal work, including lathe work. At one of my engineering jobs using a SMD placement machine, they also employed a fitter and turner and it was great to pick his brains about mechanical things. Its a whole different world. Love your work, my Laopo and I would love to go for a walk with you and your dogs. Contact us!

  • @ericblenner-hassett3945
    @ericblenner-hassett3945 Год назад

    Very impressive crafting the modifications. Your use of the mill is also very good. The youtube channel This Old Tony had an episode on Tool Chucks and with the mill bit looking concentric and spinning off center, it might be worth your time looking into his video and a good look at the adapter in the collet for how round and true it is. I am supprised that extra lights to keep it visible was not included as LEDs are relatively cheap. In Canada, even if it is not registered as a vehicle, an e-bike needs to have ( in our regulations ) at least one mirror, turn signals and headlight and makes people here expect that as ' standard issue ' on one. It does look like it is comfortable and fun to ride. Edited to add: I do not mean to make it sound like it has no lights, just not enough for what a Canadian such as myself would expect as standard and safety needed.

  • @PRR1954

    7,000 Watts?? Nine HorsePower!!🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎That's far more than my first (50cc gasoline) motorcycle, and probably more than my second (a 250cc) really had. At city-speeds, that is fantastic.
    Agree that this is frighteningly vulnerable in a city, but where I am we have miles of near-deserted roads. And most drivers expect anything from bicycles to farm equipment to deer or moose at any time.

    Haha and I’ve made aerospace parts on cheap Taiwanese manual machines that I’ve converted into CNC.
    Aerospace specs are .005 - .030. If it is a cast iron machine you shouldn’t have any issue obtaining this accuracy.
    While it is true that the quality of part reflects from the machine if you check runout, backlash, travel guides, gear lash, and squareness before you buy you can find chinese machines that can produce these results and even be improved upon if you have a nice machine to access modifying your parts.
    Its really not difficult to do when setup correctly. Then again I do machine for a living.

  • @jaycee6996
    @jaycee6996 Год назад

    Hi Naomi, Looking at your milling and the poor finish it occurs to me you may be doing climb milling. Climb milling is when you move the piece in the direction the cutter rotates. Especially on fine cuts it leads to a rubbing action. To get the cleanest finish you have to move the piece so that the direction the cutter rotates causes it to bite into the moving piece. The rotation of the cutter blade is moving in the opposite sense to the direction of movement of the piece. This causes a cut rather than a rubbing action.
