I love your channel content, they're all awesome projects that remind me of the "Model Engineer" magazine contents. it's also cool that you also wear the best shirts in your shop.
8:30 That feeling of a tight tolerance never gets old! I can run prototypes all day and even on through-holes I find my self covering one end with my hand and making it do the "pop" 😁
Absolutely amazing to watch a man with such skill. The tolerances he achieves is commendable. I would like to know how many hours are condensed into the short clips we see.
Very nice Work Michel, its turning out to be a great little mill which will be a fitting complement to your other machines. Thanks for the journey thus far.
your work is of top notch. Why not make this beautiful micro mill cnc? Keep up the good work. you have a beautiful grand child. protect her with all you have.
Michel, another terrific instalment, Congrats!! Your "quad screw" idea for the swivel action has also provided me with a viable solution for my FF 230 Mill, Thank you!
Hi Colin 😊 thanks! Oh.. of course.. The FF 230 has the same problem of course. I think it's best to rebuild that quill and column saddle completely in steel.
Congratulations Michel!! Really great build and design. I'm interested in how the "quill" works out for you as I have been toying with the exact same idea for my Sherline mill.
Excellent design of the locking mechanism! Have you considered using a tapered pin to easily establish the 90 degree position? I am thinking of the kind with an inner thread, that can be pulled with a sliding hammer.
I have considered that, but I plan to take a slightly different approach for the 90 degree locking mechanism and the tilt angle. Those way too small protractors you see on hobby machines are worthless. At best, they give you one degree of accuracy, which is far too coarse for my work. Most don't even have a locking mechanism. Spoiler alert: This is where the flat surfaces on my column saddle and quill come in handy for locking and precise adjustment of the angle. Next video maybe, but *after* I have measured and, if necessary, adjusted any deviations.
Can't find my exact type anymore. But it is very close to this 12000 rpm one: nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005002967850804.html Mine had no power supply, clamp, ER collet, and a maximum of 15000 rpm. It costed € 80 and the controller is the same as in the link.
Nice work! Thanks for the video. Could you share some info to identify motor you applied? Waiting for first run and сheck the accuracy and rigidity of the mill.

Lovely work, as always. Glad we get to wait to see ‘chips’, it means another episode! Thank you. BTW, just speaking personally, I can live without the music (of any sort) it just acts as a distraction and I want to concentrate on what you’re doing. Les 🇬🇧
How did you put the tube frame together? It doesn't seem like it's welded, but I also don't see any transition between clamps and complete and painted frame.
See ruclips.net/video/ZfO0BBXhcMM/видео.htmlsi=QqOAdQOuPzYAuPM3&t=892 After I filed the corners to 45 degrees, I simply folded this tube into a rectangle. There are gaps, but they are very narrow and almost invisible. I did connect the ends of the tube with two countersunk bolts and a piece of aluminum. You can see it in the link at the top right.
@@Michel-Uphoff Ah, I see, thank you. I'd generally appreciate more detail on how things are put together in your videos. I'll happily trade some of the footage of optical punching all 6 holes on a part for less of "I made this adjustment mechanism off camera" :)
Hallo Michael. Ich vermisse Pass- oder Kegelstifte in Deiner Konstruktion. Die Teile nur durch Schrauben genau zu positionieren ist nicht fachmännisch. 🤐
Nice little machine, I look forward to seeing chips fly 👍

Wasn't expecting the drum solo, quite enjoyed it. Always enjoy your episodes keep up the great vids.
Famous drum solo end sixties
As always…a real pleasure to watch 👍🥰😘
Great timing. Exhausting week it's been. Best friday evening show 👌

Let's do the pop 😂
Your choice of music and that shirt. Groovy man.
😊I also like Bach very much. That's groovy too?
@@Michel-Uphoff Its music, its all groovy.

About 40-60 hours of work is covered in a half hour video.
everything's coming together nicely, can't wait to see it running !

It is coming along so very nicely Michel, thank you 👍💪✌

Awesome! !! Thanks for sharing.
Excellent craftsmanship
Fantastic machining as always. And I did enjoy the Iron Butterfly compared to the usual pieces you choose to accompany the video.
Next time it could be Bach, or Mozart or Deep Purple. "De gustibus non est disputandum".
Congratulations Michel!! Really great build and design. I'm interested in how the "quill" works out for you as I have been toying with the exact same idea for my Sherline mill.
Very nice work sir
excellent !!!!!
Thank you Derek!
È un capolavoro👍
Grazie. ☺
Wonderfull.
Excellent

Great, masterful work Michel! What model of spidne did you choose for this drill?

Very intriguing little machine. Can you maybe link the motor you have used? I need a similar motor and the one you used is a perfect match. Thank you.

@@Michel-Uphoff The guitar solo next time maybe?
@@sayeager5559 Also nice!
Another great video. How did you secure the corners of the box frame you cut the notches on? Thank you.
I didn't do that, just bent the tube and bolted the two ends together using a piece of scrap aluminium.
@@Michel-Uphoff See that is why you are the master. I would have spent hours figuring out a poor way to secure it all. Lol
How did you put the tube frame together? It doesn't seem like it's welded, but I also don't see any transition between clamps and complete and painted frame.
