I don't know anything about CNC, but I find it mentally satisfying to see a big piece of metal being machined in different ways and turned into a product. Thank you so much for all the videos you make.
what im curious about, is why you choose for certain tools and certain toolpaths when ther are a lot faster and more efficient ways you can do those operations. for example, why arent you using the tool you used at 0:12 for the bulk machining at 6:30?
yeah, i was about the ask the same. To me it makes no sense that the "MRR preachers" are using a comparable tiny endmill to do so many shallow cuts for two flat steps. would a tool-change really take so long?
Just for some perspective, the material for the 4" x 6" x 9" 6061AL bars they started with is $261/ft here in Canada. 3' x $261 = $780 plus probably another $100 shipping.
"Ah, the sweet sounds of making chips ....... sounds like victory (money!)". I for one would watch live feeds (formerly known as "webcams") of some of your Swiss machines, wire EDM, and 5-axis .... I'm pretty sure I could watch 24/7 - very therapeutic!! Happy New Year ya'all ....
Love talking with machinists about funny stuff like bud who took a edge finder up to 15000 rpm it pulled the holder out of the spindle (everyone was ok) funny now lol
Loved this mate 👌 u should be proud of that 👏 👍 as my dad always said to me when teaching and learning me "the most important and 1 of the hardest things of this trade is workholding" it's just something that's always stuck with me lol if u know u know....awesome job m8 happy new year to you all
Hey guys what is involved in trickle feed machining like a mill that u can’t upload large programs to where it reads forgets reads next forget reads forgets and so on (coming from pnc 440) but im going to be trained to use an old okuma we have (not a machinist (engineering) but i understand machining to a degree but not this ^
Hello, I live in Turkey and, as a Turkish creator, I love your content and follow it closely with great care.

@jaymex2617 with a shorter tool, you can go faster because it's more rigid, plus pushing at the tip of it has less leverage towards snapping at the end of the holder. I try to keep a 1/2" x 3/4" tool in my machine most of the time for things like that.
2 questions for you jessie my man. 1 why did you even use a end mill at op one at all and not just use the face mill that was already in the spindle ? and 2. why didnt you rough out most of the end mill work with the face mill and just finish with the end mill on op two ? a mill doing lathe work on a milling machine. did you ask tyson for help xD ( since a lathe probably have more knolage/experience on turning then a mill do/does ) ( the true tital of a milling machine operator according to the teaching of the old machining. same thing when it comes to lathe )
Why did you waste time with what looked like a 1/2 in end mill when you could've avoided a tool change and 3 passes and just run the face mill one pass then the dovetail way to much air time the absolute most expensive material to machine air and time. Do better
For those who say that machining has become a bunch of button pushers look at this series. Everybody in the value stream here has to be on their “A” game to produce products like this. The machine tool they are using is a monster. Thank you for posting.
The sweet sound of machining.
I'll be back at it tomorrow...with jet lag, will be fun. Hopefully I don't make too many stupid mistakes.
i like the heavy sound of steel aluminum sounds like milling foam or drinking water to get rid of hunger

ive got more examples but this one is probably the easiest one
😊 I am totally with you, although I like to look at milling with small endmills
yeah, i was about the ask the same. To me it makes no sense that the "MRR preachers" are using a comparable tiny endmill to do so many shallow cuts for two flat steps.
would a tool-change really take so long?
I was just coming to comment the same thing. This channel promotes tool and path efficiency and use, what seems to be, inefficient processes.
@@supremecommander2398 mrr?
You guys have some considerable spindle time into this project.
Just for some perspective, the material for the 4" x 6" x 9" 6061AL bars they started with is $261/ft here in Canada. 3' x $261 = $780 plus probably another $100 shipping.
Awesome camera angles!

Awesome!! when is the programming video coming out??
Ugh, just came from work and i'm already watching work-related stuff xD
Very impressive!
Great working nice machine good company
Had a little bit of a CSI Miami glow for a second there lol

Did you somehow clamp these jaws before turning them?
Finally!
Amazing

Hi Titan how you are doing?
WOW!
22:40 why milling this square side of the jaw??
It looks to be a relief cut for an internal feature on the workpiece.
My dream job.
She does leave a mess, also is this aluminium your carving, what's the stronger material you can work with?
Great video! I look forward to seeing the finished product!

Why use such a long tool for those flats you cut the dovetail in?
Tool show-off 😊

It could be just what was available without having to put together a shorter tool. I've been guilty of this as well.
@gulch1969 fair. I just figured with tool probes and stuff it would be easier to switch tools.
BOOOOOOM LET'S GOOOOOO!!!!!
Can’t see the swarf for the snark in the comments 😅
wow, 1 of your best, i have seen so far, sawasdee pee mai, from SW Thailand!
Fir..... Um 3rd?
Dovetail jaws not oriented properly.
we dont see many sparks!
This was definitely not programed by Dany.

a mill doing lathe work on a milling machine. did you ask tyson for help xD
( since a lathe probably have more knolage/experience on turning then a mill do/does )
( the true tital of a milling machine operator according to the teaching of the old machining. same thing when it comes to lathe )
Wow... it's absolutely insane to me that the entire workpiece can spin at lathe speeds. First I've seen anyone do that.
What the heck is it?
Engineering at its best
Boring. I wonder if they have any manual lathes or mills
Why did you waste time with what looked like a 1/2 in end mill when you could've avoided a tool change and 3 passes and just run the face mill one pass then the dovetail way to much air time the absolute most expensive material to machine air and time. Do better

All that material you cut off off, just get waterjet lol. Every video cutting off 75% of stock
Nice machines, but genius level? They're pie jaws.
I don't like the stories I've heard of the owner of this shop
Nice jaws. But to call it genius is a huge stretch.
👍
