It's cool how the rotation of the horizontal cutter and frame rate matchup. Reminds me of videos of cars at highway speed that look like they're not moving
Adam I found you from Mr Pete , please help him with his channel, I consider him a National treasure such a nice older gentleman and you sir are brilliant and what a treat and great experience learning from you as well
Rpm will only start dropping when the maximum rated power output of the motor is exceeded. Considering this is heavily geared down it’s nowhere near maximum power. With stuff geared down like this the system has plenty of torque to break all kinds of stuff. The only time you’re gonna get close to maxing out the motor power is when running at high speed and taking a heavy cut at the same time.
The plainer gauge was an awesome tip to keep around. Last time I had this problem I touched the cutter off on the base of the vise before loading the part then worked from the bottom of the shaft up. Thanks for sharing
I wondered why Adam didn't just set the planer gauge under the shaft to reference the bottom and then come up from there obviating the need to use an indicator.
If you touched off with the quill on an upper tangent of the shaft and then again off a lower tangent and split the difference, assuming you used the same Y location, would that also work?
I gotta say, I never had any previous interest in this stuff but I find myself captivated by your videos. How you measure everything exactly and how you get it so accurate is a real art.
Yeah, same here. I'm in IT so I have absolutely nothing to do with machining, but his videos have awakened a certain fascination for the craft in me. Might have to get myself some machines at some point (maybe a CNC, combination of IT and machining)
Thank you very much for your detailed discussion of how you chose to make these keyways. This kind of information is extremely useful for those of us just getting into machining or getting back into the field. The Planer gauge tip was excellent.
I am working in production line as a supervisor. I always follow his techniques of each work/job. His instructions during job are more valuable and useful too.i love watching every video he posts.great craftman 👌👌
10 thousand watched, and only 1.4 thousand liked! have the courage to say that this guy records a video that is interesting not only for beginners but also for professionals!!!
Adam you have so much experience you don't even think of this. Any plane milling cutter with a hole in it must be put on arbor facing the right way . If you don't the cutter will run backwards and instantly dull the cutter right out. I sharpen cutting tools for a living and I have seen it with inexperienced operators. You can tell by the direction of the burn on the cutting edge. You have worked with this type of cutter for so long you don't even think about it .
I am not a machinist, fabricator or welder.... I simply love to watch people who have skill in a craft, do their thing!. Especially manipulating metal and wood. It is amazing to me how humans without the benefit of Internet, Digital read outs and high precision instruments( relatively speaking) built some of the most coveted machinery and items by even todays standards... These men,... and women... Did with limited resources and tools, what todays machinist strive to achieve! Adam, your use of an "Old School' parallel really hit this home for me! It may be quicker to use new tooling and machinery... But someone with only a caliper and math... brought these new tools into being! May we teach our school aged kids.. real math and skills someday!! It is a dying art that needs a renewal!!
How is it that the work you put out is worthy of hanging on a wall just to marvel at it's beauty? I work in a shop and have never seen such amazing stuff🤣. Absolutely inspirational! There's no question why Chicago put your work in a Museum 👍
man I wish I had the skills you do my father who has passed a long time ago probably did way back in the day but he passed before he could pass on his knowledge to me I can do metal work but I am nowhere near a machinist but I do understand keep up the good work man and loving your new shop
Being a welder/fabricator that is trying to venture more into machining, it was cool to see the planer and shaper gauge trick. Gonna have to use that one at work.
Nice tip on the planer gauge. I’ve seen those pop up now and again in my fb market groups and wasn’t super clear on how they were used. I love the “old” ways.
My uncle use to be a machinist for a big company in Ontario Ca many years ago, he started his own small shop at some point and was doing well.....I had the opportunity to help aroumd the shop and I wish I had taken the time to learn mpre about what he was doing. Needless to say, im learning way more now through you than I would have at the time with him. My math skills has always been lack luster but you make machining much more cooler than ive seen most people do.
Beautiful work as usual. My Dad this stuff all his working life. Finding his tool chest with it's sine bars in and calculation records was a bit of a thrill.
Gotta watch more period dramas, friend! Same thing happens when you see an Amish-style vehicle on camera. The wheels sometimes look like they’re rotating backwards. (My mom loved watching PBS back in my youth…)
This is not strictly only a camera problem. If you have lights in the shop that are flickering in synchronicity with the rotational speed, you may get the impression that a machine isn't moving or moving slowly. This can even be a real workplace hazard if the machinist gets confused by it.
@@Gameboygenius Wowza I didn’t even think of the safety concerns!! But what your comment makes perfect sense to me now that I think about it! (I guess I’m fortunate that PWM vs. Shutter Angle is only an artistic concern in my trade…)
The feed rate and shutter speed really make a very cool looking video. You are the man Adam. Work is outstanding ,and your video's are just as impressive. Thanks for always sharing.
You could also use an adjustable parallel under the shaft and touch off on that to get the height of the bottom of the shaft to the cutter. Then move up half the shaft diameter minus half the cutter width.
Really cool tip on using the planer gauge , thanks. You mentioned there are several other "tricks of the trade" with planer gauges, would love to see a video on those. REALLY like this video, well done.
Very interesting optical effect with the cutter and recording speeds. Seeing the center of the cutter rotating correctly with the mill, the teeth standing still from the side but the face of them rotating with the machine again was disconcerting! 👍
Same effect with rotating machinery under fluorescent lights! Because the electric motors turn either 1800 or3600 rpm (nominal) and the lights actually flash on and off 60 times per second, something spinning at the right rpm can appear to be standing still! Something to be aware of if working on/around running machinery!
What a great piece of work and a perfect execution..! The end result is really neat, hats off! I liked the part when the indicator didn't moved. Not even a tiny bit. Amazing precision!
@4:47 - I use this method to set the tram and level of my 3D printer beds. Regular sheet of paper and close the gap till it drags. It's worked going on 3 years for 2 printers now.
An amazing effect when the speed of the cutter matches the frame rate of your camera, it actually looked like the cutter was running backward a bit of a dark art to a non machinist.
A note to Andrew, the owner of this shaft... The proper fit for keys is a light press fit into the shaft and a clearance fit in the female bores of whatever attaches to the shaft. It is improper per established engineering standards to have slip fit keys in a shaft. Movement will result and the keyseat will fail from plastic deformation. These are not my standards. Look in the Machinery Handbook for the fits that I am talking about. If you have ground down, test fit keys, don't use them. Use new properly fitting keys. ---Doozer

Adam: the cinematography.. watching that key cutter at 60RPM at 60 FPS... art man. that was art. It worked...
❤

IMPRESSIVE, good to watch a job finish so good looking.
What’s really impressive is that the RPM didn’t vary by more than +/- .5 or so when loaded down by cutting. That’s one, sweet milling machine. 😌
The rigidity isn't super good though. Imo they should've made it with a 5" or so thick quill so they could fit a proper thick 40 taper shaft in there.

@@imkindofabigdeal4308 thanks for repeating what I said lol
This looks like stuff we make for NASA. Beautifully done job Abom!

@@chriscraven9572 Well, sure, but then you don't need to use an indicator. Where's the fun in that lol

I am not a machinist, but man I am enjoy watching this a lot. Thank you!
Catching up after a long time where the algorithm didn't feed me a video, nice to see the improvements to the shop and the new gear!
I expect to see a video soon on your cnc machines. I saw the tech working on getting your lathe leveled and operational :)
I gotta say, I never had any previous interest in this stuff but I find myself captivated by your videos. How you measure everything exactly and how you get it so accurate is a real art.

It’s so cool to watch you work and see how you figure different things out.
I find Joe Pie. cool to watch too.
That’s all worked out by the film crew and stuntmen 🤫🤣😂🤣😂🥲😂

That adjustable parallel touch off tool seems like a sweet tool i would really enjoy owning for situations like the one you found yourself in.
I could watch this all day!!
You need to get with Brandon Herrera he needs a machinist that's willing to do custom work
1. Aways learn something new from adams videos
2. Man those machines are so new and clean
3. Granddad and dad are so proud of you
It's good to see you and your videos once again, my friend. It has been a while and I'm excited to see this new one.
How is it that the work you put out is worthy of hanging on a wall just to marvel at it's beauty? I work in a shop and have never seen such amazing stuff🤣. Absolutely inspirational! There's no question why Chicago put your work in a Museum 👍

Thank you for your videos. You make me a better machinist.
Being a welder/fabricator that is trying to venture more into machining, it was cool to see the planer and shaper gauge trick. Gonna have to use that one at work.
I have one and never knew what it was for, the older I get, I feel like I learn more?
Whenever u need a Saturday evening pick me up, Adam is there with a decent vid.
Great video. Really been missing this type of content.
Adam, I loved that you showed the "Paper spacer" Technique. I learned that some 40 years ago in Basic Machine Shop.
Thanks for sharing on how you squared up the second vise. Simple and elegant process.
Nice tip on the planer gauge. I’ve seen those pop up now and again in my fb market groups and wasn’t super clear on how they were used. I love the “old” ways.

Brilliant! Adam, take a minute on one of these to show what you use to clean the swarf out of your machines.
Beautiful work as usual. My Dad this stuff all his working life. Finding his tool chest with it's sine bars in and calculation records was a bit of a thrill.
Best video so far. Nice job
VERY Nice job! Thanks, Adam
That shaft is a work of art.
I like watching you make things.
Andrew I hope the shaft works great for you.
I've been subscribed to your channel for years. God bless and God bless
The shop looks great and while the work just shows your intelligence and talent I wish you continued success make sure you enjoy yourself
That planer gauge is one beautiful tool. I don’t need a planer gauge but now I want one bad.
And now I finally know how to use my planer and shaper gauge, awesome!
Really cool optical effect when the rpm and fps allign. Almost like the cutter eating its way in backwards 😀
Gotta watch more period dramas, friend! Same thing happens when you see an Amish-style vehicle on camera. The wheels sometimes look like they’re rotating backwards. (My mom loved watching PBS back in my youth…)
Actually, now that I’m thinking of it, I bet I could make a FlyWheel look really stonkin’ confusing. Trust me, I’m a confuser expert 😎 @AvE??
Agreed, very cool!
This is not strictly only a camera problem. If you have lights in the shop that are flickering in synchronicity with the rotational speed, you may get the impression that a machine isn't moving or moving slowly. This can even be a real workplace hazard if the machinist gets confused by it.

Excellent job. Planer gauge awesome tip. Skilled Craftsman at work. There is Adam and Curtis at CCE.
Work at the hand of a master tradesman
The feed rate and shutter speed really make a very cool looking video. You are the man Adam. Work is outstanding ,and your video's are just as impressive. Thanks for always sharing.
It's amazing how chewed up that old shaft was!! Work of art Adam!!
Impressive as always. I noticed a guy at the background working on the milltronics machine, i guess we are getting there soon!
You could also use an adjustable parallel under the shaft and touch off on that to get the height of the bottom of the shaft to the cutter. Then move up half the shaft diameter minus half the cutter width.
It is so cool to watch you explain,your speaking and your tool there are very good

I’m Sure we gonna see some cnc action soon. Looks like we have some leveling going on and set up
yes i sore that as well
Check him out on his facebook page. CNC going on there!
I saw Mr. 'I'm not here guy" too! LOL!! I was like... Who the hell is that?? LOL!! We get so possessive on the yoobtube!! LOL!
I thought about that too. I thought I saw the previous machine that was on that corner however.
Great use of the planner gage!
I smell a CNC video coming. Someone is getting the lathe ready ;)
That 44 min video went by like it was 20 mins. Excellent looking shaft!
Neat to see two vises at work - never seen that trick.
AWESOME for the gauge uses!!!
@4:47 - I use this method to set the tram and level of my 3D printer beds. Regular sheet of paper and close the gap till it drags. It's worked going on 3 years for 2 printers now.
You should be teaching at a trade school. You make everything understandable
Great work! The tip on feel of the machine is something learned.
Well done, Adam.
Beautiful work.Thank you.
Funny how a gust of helium blew through the shop when you were offsetting for the 2nd woodruff key hahaha😁🤣😁🤣😁🤣😁🤣😁🤣😁🤣
Keep up the good work sir 👌😎
Mill did a nice job, thanks for sharing.
Aha!! I see the CNC calibrater technician in the background there!!! For sure an interesting vid is yet to come!!
His name is Waldo. Not really, just kidding.
Excellent work!
Nice work and well done sir.
Nice Job Adam, Thanks for sharing...
Hi, from Sydney Australia.
Really interesting project!
An amazing effect when the speed of the cutter matches the frame rate of your camera, it actually looked like the cutter was running backward a bit of a dark art to a non machinist.
See your cnc lathe is being setup :D
Thank you
Beautiful part with lots of features in it! Beats that old beat-up original LOL. Appreciated this set of videos Adam!
Looks like you have a helper now.
It's a beautiful job
Thanks Adam.. I learned a lot from this series.. keep it up man!
Wow the tool holder for the large cutter has some bevel’s look like they were cut with a chisel
Chipmunk Abom always makes me smile =D
Super job👌
hola como siempre un trabajo perfecto ,
gracias por compartirlo saludos
Adam you are da man
Amazing job! You really go all in to make it perfect.
