Hard as it would be to show, and how few people care I understand why you don't show the full CAD design process. But, personally I'd absulutly love to see how you go about decisions for elements of design. There is world of tricks I could steal from just watching this one video alone.
Switchable magnets are cool. But would it not have been better to make the lower ring spinny and fix the upper one? This way the vice would not have to rotate (eliminating any chance to bump and misalign it in the process; and generally easier to handle when parts stick out and stuff). Well, probably not an issue with the small part you're going to tap on this.
This also brings up the idea of *any* misalignment between the headpiece and the center of the rotating base, if you line it up with center of the bit and that's not the center of the pivot, it would also move out of the way when clamped.
I can see the point of this, but having a vice that moves as it locks down seems a bit iffy. All my magnetic vice work by moving the internal magnet assy, never the flux-transfering surface.
Each one of your project alway follow the same paterns : tooking a place in my top 3d print practical things to make without any chance of regret , and how inspiring this is , sincerely thank you for your work !
You should make a second iteration and fix those bolts. Also revolve the lower section instead of the upper. This way your vice does not rotate when you lock the chuck, which makes this whole contraption border-line unusable.
thats really awesome! my magnetic chuck cost $120 and weights about 50 pounds. its too big to use with any convenience. something like this seems much more practical.
Wow this is super timely as I was just thinking of something very similar as I have a need for such a thing but maybe not enough of a need to buy a commercial solution. I was just imagining something similar yesterday but, hadn't figured out how I could implement it without having to buy things that would make it totally uneconomical. Pretty sure I can implement a version of this with what I have on hand. So good!
Spitballing, but would it be possible to use a mechanism like this to lock the ball vise in place in a particular orientation, instead of relying on weight to hold it in place? I know the ball vise has decent holding power, but with something like this you could probably get a higher holding strength with less weight added. Also, perhaps more importantly, I feel like it'd be super cool
Is there room, you think to modularize the round work surfaces? You've got one on the drill press, one on the tapping arm, and one on the ball vice. If you could tweak all three would you make them interchangable or is it not worth it?
Where is the press adapter with a soldering iron? 😉 Threaded insert pressing has been in all of your recent videos... right? 😁 I use an off the shelf dremel drill press with an 3d printed adapter. Seems like a good use for what you are building.
hey, can you design a course on how you think through design challenges, and leverage 3d printing + concrete + hardware embedded in 3d prints to make custom precision tools? i'd pay like $40 for a high quality guide to getting inside your head like your planning process, choice of filaments, glue, where your source your hardware, 3d software of choice, tips around concrete, etc.
i was wracking my brain about how to 3d print a mag chuck... didnt consider nuts to carry the magnetic field! what kind of range does the field have? do you need to have the nuts bare against whatever you want to attach or can you have like a mm of pla sheet inbetween without losing to much attraction? also adding a thin plastic disc between the two layers might allow for easier locking and unlocking since you wont be fighting friction as well as the magnetic forces (or seal the bottom and add some lubrication to the system)
you could most likely one or 2 layers (maybe add an insert in the middle of the nut to reduce bridging ), or some sort of sheet, another option might be multi material printing some iron filled pla if you want 1mm. 0.2-0.5mm G10/FR4 might work well.
@@jw200exactly, hence my statement about being here early. RUclips does however have some vert fast ASICs for encoding video that is multiple times faster then what can be done on consumer hardware
You only show how it clicks and activated. But I never saw how you deactivate it and a wise is released. I guess it should release on the second click?
ohhh i thought that you're making a magnetic chuck for holding the tools that's very cool too, but why not make the bottom the spinning side? it wouldn't bump into the tools then
As someone magnetically challenged, can I get some insight on how this actually works? Particularly the bolts don't really make sense to me here. (how they hold the magnets in place, how they're captive, and why they're important to the overall function)
Firstly - great videos, immediately watched 3 of them. Secondly - your sound is way off. Your voice is ok, but the audio from the videos of assembly might be a little too loud and there are sharp peaks with scratching noise or when the chuck gets locked, just makes me uncomfortable. Just lower the footage volume or apply some filter.

+1 for it

Der deutsche Ingenieur.
You should rotate the lower part, so that the item stays in place when in locked/unlocked position
I love this! It's projects like this that prove 3D printing has real world applications beyond simply making plastic bits. Thanks for sharing!
great design!

The way his videos are calming, interesting and also somewhat educational is amazing
You've been doing great work with 3D builds lately. We shared this video on our homemade tool forum last week 😎
Wow, not only was this captivating but you had minecraft music in the background. Fantastic choice.
THE MINECRAFT MUSIC YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

The nuts popping up are a good indicator of which state it's in, without knowing it by eye
Everything is always on point. Can't get enough!
Thank you for sharing. Your work is inspiring me. Cheers
1:52 When you're haunted by social media dings...
Awesome build.
Very nice. This might be useful for indexing too.
I wish I had a need for such work holding. Your design looks very satisfying. Maybe I will get back to it in the future.
"Need" doesnt factor into 3d-printing and machining hobby so dont worry too much about that:D
Kudos on another great, practical design!
brilliant
Great solution. Also I've never seen nuts used in a mag chuck like that before.
Excellent execution, nice work!😊
Dude you produce some incredible stuff. Can't wait to see new tools to 3D print! I am absolutely LOVING my ball vice. Cheers man!
Top project!

Awesome work, awesome video! Love your content
That's really cool, in addition, if the nuts stayed still maybe they could be used for bolting things
Great work as always!
c418 is one hell of a genius
Awesome!
The $1 'reverse-ring' lens? 5:20
Nice shot!

Dude your designs are so inventive. Keep making things! It's inspiring, even though you're Australian.

Needs concrete
😂
And a dovetail adapter for the ball vice
You love making tools, more than you love making stuff from those tools.

Any chance you'll be at Bay Area Maker Faire in October??
Magnets and 3d printing, my two favorite- is that minecraft music?
Stuck in 360p cause I got here too early. Oh well. Too late to stop. You got me hooked
I lied. A refresh got me 1080p as options. All hail the youtube encoding magicians
You can't expect 1080 immediately after upload.
It takes time to process the video

Do you have any info on what looks like an arbor press at the 4 minute mark?
Where can i find the files for the vice?🙈
what magnet did you use?
Nice printing but you constantly lose a center. A top part of magnet table shouldn't move.
oh my god. I thought I left Minecraft open 😂

Como se llama la canción de fondo?
Sorry. El video es muy bueno, pero la primera melodia atrapo mi alma.
why minecraft music
Great video, btw 3:52 The threaded inserts are for injection molding ;-) (yes, they also "work")
Do you play minecraft
That snapping sound is terrifying though.
