I respect the way you're always trying to improve on what is usually considered satisfactory. You push a little bit further than most to try and get as close to perfect as possible, it's an excellent trait to have. Thanks for the upload.
Stefan, You REALLY should teach, professionally. You have the gift. Everytime I watch one of your "vijeos" I come away with a new concept that roots around in my lifetime of experience to find a dozen old concepts to improve. Thank you. Kirk
Stefan, I swear you wait until I'm sitting at my desk with a hot cup of coffee before uploading. Bravo! Joking! Greetings from rainy and cold Connecticut, USA. Thanks for the great start to Sunday!
When I read large radii I was thinking something in the neighborhood of 3 m. This I would personally label a small radii but no matter what you call it it's a fine demonstration.
Nice technique well shared love seeing the scrapping blade makes us want to complete training on machine scrapping. Here to learn and you do not disappoint.
Greatly enjoy your very informative videos. You are also a very good teacher. You can always tell you enjoy what you do. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to the next one.
I just got shown a Transformers ad before this video. Come on Transformers, I'm watching a Stefan Gotteswinter video, you think I like excitement? I do like quality and interesting content. Strike two Transformers
Because my hands aren't as steady these days, I need fixtures like this to do precise work that I used to do by hand. Sometimes it's just necessary for the precision to come from the setup.
Nice video, I keep thinking about building this sort of fixture and then just end up doing the radius free hand. Maybe next time I will actually do it properly. Nice find on the BL 10, I have been looking at the European used market for months and can't find one. There are BL 40's out there but no 10's in the usual places.
And a little bit ???? Stefan you the epitome of precision and the sentence "and a little bit " is like ..... I'm bafled, don't know what to say, anyways good video, not sure I'll ever use it but nice to know trivia, and it is good to hear from you again.
I know this is kind of an off topic question, but what are your typical stroke setting on the Biax scraper? BTW love your work and thanks for sharing 🤙🏻
Hello Stefan! Nice to see you. Why the absent of videos? They don't have to all be some Super Cool tip or trick or techniques or project. Simple basic stuff is good too, at least for me because of being a new bee at this :) Happy Holidays!
Hi Stefan, I enjoy your videos. By pivoting the 3-jaw chuck 5º, are you grinding a section of an 85º ellipse? Whereas, if you, instead, pivoted the grinder spindle or used a wheel dressed to 85º you would create the 30mm radius with the desired 5º negative angle. Am I picturing this correctly? Not that it would make any difference in the performance of the scraper.
I free-hand scraper blades, usually by eye. I might use the gage to detect lumps and flats on my free-hand radius but usually it's an eyeball operation start to finish. Somewhere I have a little table of sagitta Vs chord for various radii but after the zillionth scraper restoration you develop the eye. I made a bunch of scrapers once that had a line of drilled holes you could slip over a pin as a swivel to guide the radius being ground. The noob, however, would have to cultivate the necessary perceptions - perceptions sometimes requiring a long learning curve in adults. Time spent away from scraping checking tip to gage, touching up, and rechecking is unproductive. A re-sharpen usually taking thirty seconds could extend to fifteen minutes. Your jig offers a simple femedy However, your nifty little jig can make even very large radii spot on the money. I can see many applications not only for lathe tolls but shaper tools, wood router bits, etc wherever requirements exceed the pitiful range of the usual factory tool grinding equipment. BTW, if your scraper dulls in the middle, don't forget you have the rest of the cutting edge to wear out before you have to sharpen. Learn to tilt the scraper a bit one way or another to catch indications not quite in line with the preceding. Time and practice will teach you to unconsciously tilt and weave the scraper tip and to vary the downward pressure so you knock out two to four indication per cutting stroke without cutting between them. All in a fifth of a second. Most good scraper hands do this unawares and therefore can't reach it. Takes practice.
Just acquired an old Biax scraper and about to go down this rabbit hole, no Biax blades though, do you recommend buying them or brazing carbide (I have a few suitable pieces)? Excellent work as usual!
Hi, is your red cutter grinder made in Hungary by any chance? Karcag? Could you give some info about the collets it uses and how to use such a grinder? Best regards Daniel
If you plan to do this on a bench grinder (or a machine with no control feed) just don't get impatient by setting too much extra material to grind and start the grind from the top down. If it binds and tries to roll along the grinding wheel, hopefully the workpiece will just slip back in the jig, but if it doesn't.....oh boy.

Nice! Reminded me of Brian Block’s video a year ago: ruclips.net/video/nyNAMuePsL0/видео.html Technique for milling a radius larger than the rotary table. Two orders of magnitude between your and Brian’s shops. Thanks

brilliant and a pleasure to watch as usual
Excellent job on the design and versatility of you fixture!
Thank you!
Been missing your channel! Glad to see a new one!
Hi from 2022. Still good 4years on!
I Always learn something useful watching your videos
Excellent, as always!!!!!!!!
Exactly what I needed. Thanks!

Great video Stefan!
Stefannn!!!! Brilliant !
Thanks so much for this. I've been contemplating how to accurately radius my scraping blades and tool bits. Problem solved!
this old tony sent me here . looks like a good channel looking forward to seeing more
Yep , that third arm is helpful for sure . Awesome video Sir .
I use mine for stirring my coffee while I make bacon and eggs. :-)
Have been wondering about video's, you haven't let work get in the way have you.
Always enjoy Stefan.
Cheers, Noel
Paid work goes before videomaking ;)
Hi Stefan. Delighted to see another excellently fimed and presented video. BobUK
Thank you!
Great Stefan!!!
I like it, great job Stefan!

very clever, thanks for sharing
Thank you! Very nice!
Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Nothing’s perfect expect your videos Stefan
Awww ;)
Thanks for the video.
After forming the radius, I dull the corners so they will not scratch the work if they contact it.
I usualy do that too, but when scraping very small dovetails I need to scrape very close to the corner of the blade, so I leave it as it is.
And a little bit ???? Stefan you the epitome of precision and the sentence "and a little bit " is like ..... I'm bafled, don't know what to say, anyways good video, not sure I'll ever use it but nice to know trivia, and it is good to hear from you again.
There is always a bit eyeballing included :)
nice video!
Nice trick thanks.
Lookcreations, how is the Clarkson tool and cutter grinder going? You fancy adapting to do this?
"Nothing is perfect...".

Germany is ruiining its reputation as an engineering-country pretty well at the moment.

Excellent work as usual!
As usual: It depends ;)
If you have the time at hand and can braze - go for it.
If you need a blade without additional work: buy them.
If you ever decide to make stickers they should say:

Missed you bud.

Work gets easy in the way of making videos.
Hi,
is your red cutter grinder made in Hungary by any chance? Karcag?
Could you give some info about the collets it uses and how to use such a grinder?
Best regards
Daniel
cool!
could you in theory grind both sides to different radaii?
If you plan to do this on a bench grinder (or a machine with no control feed) just don't get impatient by setting too much extra material to grind and start the grind from the top down. If it binds and tries to roll along the grinding wheel, hopefully the workpiece will just slip back in the jig, but if it doesn't.....oh boy.
Can you please tell me the song used in this cool video, Thank You Keep them coming!

yae!
Stefan, did you purchase these blades direct from Biax or is there a retail level distributor in Germany?
I bought them along with the scraper from biax.
Did you really say "Stinking good" ? ;-)
ATB, Robin
Might have happened ;)
The consequence of working with Ave, Tony and Wintergten.
Perfect radii so you can dig holes in metal by hand. Clearly over engineered. You have style! lol
Haha, you dont grind your shovel on the surfacegrinder?
Do you have now stereo audio recording? I find it a little bit annoying to hear you louder on one side than the other. Or my headphones are broken :D
no, not your headphones
Sorry, forgot to pull it to Mono in editing.
You forgot... "On a lathe with a tool post grinder"
Right! :)

Oha, youre right. I even commented on that video, haha. Thanks for bringing that back to mind.
Football stadiums have very large radiuses.
I am not into sports ;)
