I recently acquired a Tormach 1100mx. I've started to outgrow my existing mills and have been looking for a VMC that was feature rich but that I could also get into my basement. I show the rigging process of getting it into my basement, assembly, and then machining a tool holder for it. Also includes some 3D printing and plasma cutting. Finally I take the tool breakage detection and rigid tapping features for a test drive.
My videos usually take 100+ hours of work and a lot of money in tools and materials. I've made a patreon if you're interested in supporting the creation of these projects: / stuffmadehere
Oh also this video is not sponsored by Tormach. I bought this mill with my hard earned bucks.
Your shop is siiiiiiick.
Late is better than nothing. Welcome to the club.
Your late so am i
Yayyy, I’m subbed to you
Destroy more phones ❤️
But will it scratch at a level 6, with deeper grooves at a level 7
Alternate title for this channel is: "This Young Tony". Great content, man!
Came here for this comment
Husband came in "Oh your watching This Old Tony.." Nope other guy ;)
10 seconds in I thought the same.
Everybody copies Tony. Of course a new Hass costs a good four times as much. There are broken tap removers-they work. I know.
I wanna see them crossover.
How normal people think:
I can't believe how heavy this is!
How he thinks:
I can't believe how much potential energy this has!
Those two are very different things. Weight of things practically does not change with height. So, something's as heavy at a millimeter above the ground as it is say a meter above the ground. Potential energy, however, increases linearly with the height. So, the potential energy of the same thing at one meter above the ground is a thousand times more than the same at a millimeter above the ground. Kind of like the difference between jumping off one step of a staircase and jumping off the roof of a 40 storied building.
@@Samrat_096 laymans terms: higher makes booboo bigger.
@@Samrat_096 There are no words to describe how his comment went over your head, potentially.
@@RushMoore I’d think my reply and the whole context went over your head. I guess we’re even. I’ll still try though. When you say something’s “heavy” while lifting it, you’re concerned about your own self if you’re the one who’s lifting it or the mechanism with which you’re lifting. But he’s concerned about the machine falling off and breaking apart because of it’s potential energy since he almost lifted it a meter above the ground.
This is what I thought too.
"Sheet metal is expensive"
Buys $25,000 mill
with ATC, with the automatic tool height thingy, with tooling... I'm guessing like $40k
mill will last 10-15 years. sheet metal is disposable. will spend more on sheet metal in 10-15 years than 25k. let's not go into the time saving, less tool wear and less scrapped parts having an upgraded mill, but worth mentioning.
@@thepjup4507 Why does a mill only last 10-15 years? What exactly happens when it breaks and how does a person know when it's nearing the end of its life?
@@gabedarrett1301 just using that time frame as a reference. also lets assume that in 10-15 years if you are successful youll need to upgrade, id say thats pretty accurate to a growing manufacturing company. there are 50+ year old mills still going strong today facing heavy use with no problem at all. main major breakdown is the motors. theyre easier to replace on older mills, probably why people can still run them like new today. was a pretty arbitrary number to be completely honest with you.
You can’t buy that mill if you spend it all on sheet metal. 🤔
"Checked itself before it wrecked itself. This is the origin of this phrase"
i like this guy

FYI: Ice Cube was a machinist before he became a rapper!
I lied. :)
@Dragon Master he could probably spell CNC. 😆
@@mrburns366 his father was actually a machinist lol
Big chips in your Haas is bad for your health.
Man I love your deadpan humor. Nearly choked on my food when you said "I'm going for that harbor freight aesthetic . . . to make it as thin as humanly possible." I was just thinking about that after buying a cheapo air fan for my room. The stands were stamped sheet metal and I'm sure it's impossible to make them any thinner without it buckling under its own weight :D
Q: How many mills do you need?
A: N+1 or S-1
-- N is the number of mill you have.
-- S is the number of mills that results in separation from your partner.
What if N = S-1?
@@Y337n3ss Then you're at the point where you have to choose between your partner and or getting another mill.
dont worry his partner is also engineer.
@@ayraen120 Actually the way it's written the two numbers are at a perfect ratio. The number of mills you need is equal to the number of mills that leads to a divorce, minus one.
EDIT: Please don't listen to me. I was wrong however I will leave this comment up as an explanation for future readers.
@@Y337n3ss no it’s s=n+1
This guy actually has a whole factory at home
Yes and with his knowledge and ability he could easily make a good living from that if he wanted to. But this is just his hobby...
@@ahaha8 Do you know if he has a job and what does he do for a living?
KingDavid he can make a pretty penny with this channel, if that’s his goal. But i don’t know what he usually does
@@ahaha8 I don't think it is just a hobby.
@@DemonKyle he probably contracts small run work. Which with minimal overhead (he's in his basement) he could be banking some easy money.
Really hope your channel grows. I like the clean nothing dragged out format.
me as well - no shame in buying a small prosumer mill if you have the work to fill it and the knowledge to compensate for its lack of mass and hatred. A friend of mine taught me a thing or two about using them. A rival company has one to run graphite with the intention to run it lights-out for 5 years and replace it because of the wear - cost / benefit trade-off for them at a great price.
Ur guys wish came true :)
Yeah
Hello friends, perhaps you would consider giving my channel a look. I do not have as many tools, but my robots would appreciate the support.
"You accidentally hit it with your hammer" - I gasped

@@jco_sfm yeah you're right, I meant it as an abbreviation of 3 words, but I see it reads as 1. Maybe L'd.O.L. wouldn't've read as poorly, but it's probably better to write every word, the only way sane say it.

With your luck you'd probably accidentally learn quantum physics and shit.
You have a "Give it a Go" spirit, and a wonderful sense of humor!
I was taught on Haas machines in college. And I have a great appreciation for Haas mills. I know people shit on them a lot for being light machines, but really that’s what CNC machining is. Light cuts but really fast. And Haas mills do it perfectly.
Did my man just refer to something being heavy as fuck as having
"alot of potential energy"? Truly the king of the nerds.
“Harbor freight aesthetic”
Great video bud.

Great straight to the point comment, bud
I didn't think I would see you here! I love your content!

How does this guy have such a broad skill set, it all has to do with creating things but in so many different ways that not just any average person knows. My new fav channel❤️
A mechanical engineering degree probably+tons of experience probably(including teaching himself stuff related to electrical engineering).

I swear, I find a new stuff made here video in my recommended like every month, even though I watched all the videos when I found the channel. It's like there are new videos appearing but they're from 6 months ago. That said, it's a good problem to have. I'm always happy for more of this channel
omg the self burn at "I barely scratched the surface of this machine" with the video of the literal scratch lmao :D
"it feels like there's nothing here, yet it's stiff and should do the job acceptably."
Now that is the most elaborate "that's what she said" ever
Love the “This Old Tony” vibe.
do you know "ave", lol this is another level of jokes
I recommend grinding one of your copper spot welder rods flat. This ensures that you have no markings on one side (an easy way to get a prettier side) ;) Just put it in the lathe and it's perfectly flat. The weld is still just as strong;)
Good stuff. You're a brave man tackling that machine move down a slippery slope by yourself!
Thanks - though to be fair my bravery was bolstered by the knowledge that all my rigging equipment was rated for 10-20x the load. My biggest fear was the crate tipping but I had attached 2x4 anti-tip legs in those directions so it was (hopefully) nearly impossible. In any case I was definitely breathing easier when I reached the bottom of the hill :)
Ten Years Later !!
When I first watched this video when it came out, I didn't know why you were so good at reviewing "maker tools," but given your history at formlabs and knowing that you had a significant part in producing more -- it totally makes sense
Serious ingenuity in getting that CNC into the shop. Most people bring over 12 friends and something gets broken. Great Channel!
Nice new machine! Can you do a shop tour?
The shop is a bit of a mess and I'm not sure it's all that interesting but I could do one if there was enough interest.
@@StuffMadeHere We like to see other people's mess because it makes us feel not so ashamed.
@@StuffMadeHere Everyone loves shop and tool tours, no matter how messy! I've picked up so many good ideas from other peoples setups / junk! Thanks for sharing!
Id like that
@@StuffMadeHere Just make sure you pick up the panties lying around the room then dont worry about the rest of the mess. This is basically the rules I operate under when expecting company.
Machine “checking self before wrecking self” that was awesome lol
Homeboy said he did math on how slippery grass is!! I love this channel, this guy is the man!
im so incredibly jealous of all the amazing tools you have access to. Great vid!
He Probably RIPPED !! EVERYBODY !!! OFF !! TO !! GET !! IT !!!!
I think the plastic tool holder is more suited for the job. What I’m thinking is: If something gets stuck between the tool and holding device it would have a higher probability to scratch and or seize the tool if the holder is made out of Al rather than plastic.
Great content and I’m really happy to have found your channel !
"The cloth I used was basically made of lint" lol
Everyone comes here for the ingenuity, but this is low key one of the best comedy channels on all of RUclips
All reasonable cnc's can do broken tool detection several ways. 1) spindle load is too high 2) Servo load too high 3) Predicted position vs actual or the time to reach position is too long 4) vibrations to high or 5) tool height setter to periodically check. Ive personally "tested" each of these ways
Wife: How many mills do you need?
Me: Yes
MySchizo Buddy only one mill here, but four lathes.
@@melgross you can lathe on a mill tho. just not as big sizes xD
@@therealsourc3 well, sort of. But very poorly.
@@melgross Well.... if you're clever about it, everything is a poor lathe.
@@noahcarver1707 true. A friend uses his Dremel as his lathe.
Subbed, really fantastic channel, actually had it on in the background as I was working in my shop... and about halfway through paused it, because I wanted to be able to pay attention better. I can see elements of many established machining channels in yours, but enjoy seeing how you blend them to make them your own. Keep it up, look forward to seeing more content!
I’m an engineering major and love physics and your videos are oddly enjoyable to watch even tho they bring back ptsd😅 I’m so jealous of your workshop that shits looks so fun
The best part was watching the various Band-Aids moving from finger to finger! Love the videos. I think I have a serious case of tool jealousy.
I can really see this channel getting big. Your format for these videos makes them fly by and great content! I will be watching everything you post!
Narrator: He was correct.
Who knew warrior-poet Ice Cube was actually an OG cnc operator
Design a pre-routed, battery-powered, heavy equipment trailer. You could have a winch setup and some type of roller system to slide the machinery on and off the wagon. The package could have a set destination, and you could have it on an automated guided path down your hill once the cargo is secured.
I think I may have just been tricked into watching a 22 minute long ad for a Tormach 1100mx...
I've always had a high regard for Tormach, but now I know they sound like a flat-four Subaru starting up it's even better!
OMG, I love your channel! I've been binge watching all your videos today. Your explanations are great, your tools very cool, the videography is spot on, and your experimentations are so interesting. I love the unhurried way in which you present your videos, it is very calming. Keep it up, you are doing fantastic! Ciao, Marco.
You can still tap with a mill. Just to make sure it taps true. Used to work with an old school mill in a Fab shop. You get it going, shut it off, and let the momentum tap it in. Then I release the tap and put on the hand tap handle and tap the rest of the way. This way it's perfectly straight.
I just graduated from college/ trade school for machining and I had a blast with the CNC mills and lathe. I'm jealous at the fact you have a CNC mill in your own house
"it's stiff and should do the job acceptably..." That is what she said
Huge fan of this video! Keep up the quality content! Also, there is no problem with a Tormach. Some people have problems getting the proper power to run a Haas that isn't a TM model. I have setup and ran Haas, DMG, Mazak, and Hurcos. I would not hesitate to buy a Tormach if I had the opportunity.
I like seeing your face. You say the video is about the projects and the tools, not about you, but you're wrong. We're here to see you, the most interesting person in the world

"Obviously I've barely scratched the surface of this machine"

I cracked up at "maybe machining aluminum toilet paper is not a great business idea" lmaooo
👍👍👍👍. RUclips just recommended your channel in my feed and I really enjoyed this first episode (first for me). Looking forward to some great binge watching to get caught up and to your future content. A couple of observations so far - Your sense of humor is extremely entertaining. Thanks for all the effort and energy to share this with us. And you must be incredibly industrious, by the number of cuts on your hands and the bandaids that appear at various times on different fingers. I have that problem too. Stay safe 😊
TOO !! LAZY !! TO FILE !! OFF !! THE !! EDGES !!; CHINA !! MK - 2 !!!
I've binge watched all your videos like the world was on some sort of lockdown and we are confined to our houses. Can't wait to see what kinda crazy things you come up with next. Much respect for dropping the knowledge on where the phrase "check yourself before you wreck yourself" came from ;)
As a fellow killer of taps, get a few carbide ball nose end mills and you can slowly drill a tap out.
I would love to hear what you do/did for a living!
Scotty Oh Dang. Formlabs is an awesome company. That explains a lot
Not doubting you scotty but how do you know this?
@@sandblasting money doesn’t buy brain. You can tell this man is a genius
I think you'll find you're looking at it.
Checking if a tool is broken before using it is good, but it is an after-the-fact check. Maybe what Tormach should do is utilize a current sense circuit to detect when a tool path is not drawing as much current as it should, if it was actually cutting material. If a tool breaks mid-cut, the axis motors or/and spindle motor should experience a lower current draw while in a cutting path. That should cause a fault, suggesting that a tool has broken during a cutting operation. The machine should stop and give a fault warning that an operator can then investigate before proceeding.
A lot, if not most CNC machines already have Tool Break software on them that monitor the axis and spindle loads as a tool is cutting.
Best tip for moving heavy stuff over the threshold with a pallet Jack is pulling it to the edge than setting the load down moving the first axle over the threshold and than Lifting it up again than same string for the second axle 😉
Ive had Tormachs for over a decade. They've come SO far and keep getting better.
16:19 Video Series Idea!
I like this concept where you bring in the idea of Harbor Freight, and make it yourself.
"Make it the HF way..."
I've been looking for a channel that had a MX series. Please keep it up.
I don't think I'll ever get tired of the "This Old Tony" gags.
Also, the rigod tapping was cool.
You're a super talented chap! PLEASE show how you made you plasma cutter and other cool CNC stuff.
HA, you have a walkout basement! Now you have to come up with a better reason for sleeping with the enemy!!! :-D
Love your videos. As a beginner coder, electrition, and hacker you have blown my mind. I am currently 15 and hope to some day be as smart, funny, and wide ranged as you are. I am subscribed and hope to see more videos soon.
I like your ingenuity with getting it into your workshop. I have a very similar situation, 440 hopefully coming soon.
Can't help but thinking you are some sort of Tony Stark :D

Terribly Awesome Project Idea no.348: "Husband-Aware Mood-Displaying Jewelry" - mood rings for the 21'st century! Essentially just 3DP'ed bracelets/necklaces/tiara/whatever festooned with LEDs and containing a Bluetooth radio. Bluetooth connects to a smartwatch to read biorhythm data (blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, etc.). The jewelry responds to the user's current biorhythm by providing visual feedback through the LEDs (i.e. red == "angry", blue == "sad", green == "envy", purple == "ennui", and so on). For bonus points you can put the jewelry on another person so you can see their mood from afar! Practical applications include: more empirical data on whether your pranks are ACTUALLY hitting home in your loved one's very psyche.
Just subbed. Great stuff. Insanely organized shop. However... I’d dial back the ThisOldTony genre a bit though. You guys are two of my three favorite channels to watch right now, but it’s slightly odd yours following the TOT style and format. It’s great stuff. Be yourself.
Dude I love your channel it amazing quality and really fun! you got a new subscriber!
I'm gonna say it... the best maker on youtube
As a member of the PCMasterRace... Make all the holders that clear resin and then put an LED strip in the bottom of the tray for that sweet sweet RGB.
11:05 Whats that?
A toolholder Holder.
What does it do?
It holds the toolholder which holds the Tool!
Cool!
you forgot that the tool holder stand holds the tool holder holders. its a tool holder holder holder.
Well shit, it sits on some kind of a bench or table right. So that’s a tool holder holder holder holder.
Can you please make a video explaining how the hell you always convince your wife for all this stuff?
"This video is getting too long". This is not even scientifically possible. Very interesting and informative. Inspiring too.
This makes me miss my machine shop class in school.. we used to use these machines and I remember making a set of brass dice, a steel hammer and a couple other cool things
And I thought my cnc-basement transition was difficult...
Good !! Old !! Bomb !! SHELTER !!
12:29 "who wore it better" bro i love the jokes hahaha
My work just got a 770M and I'm in love. We have other CNCs including one the size of a house but being a non-machinist I don't touch those. The tormach is simple enough and cheap enough that I don't have to worry too much about screwing something up. I've already made a few parts with it and it's both quicker and better results than parts I've manually milled. I want one for home now.
I suggest you to buy Xebec Brushes (Japan) for deburrs and cutter mark removals.
My recommend is 15mm brushes. A32-CB25M (blue), A11-CB15m (red) and S15M-p (sleeve). Blue is thicker than red. Red is used for surface quality, decreases Ra.
"hey, this video is getting pretty long..."
Me: What are you talking about??
*checking the time line*
Damm.. That's been 16m?! I guess time moves fast when you enjoy something...
Literally before this video I watched other video and after 5m I felt like it was like 15m already and was bored.
The cloth that I was using was "practically made of lint" LOL
I'm back several months later to see if I understand more things from this. Only knowledge I've gained is what degrees of freedom are.
Wanted to leave this here in regards to the comment about "once a tap is broke off in there, it's in there", I used to work at a shop where we worked with copper a bunch and the owner was too cheap to buy good taps. Needless to say, a dull tap and gummy copper make for a broken tap, we used to take either a good punch with a shard tip or the old broken tap after heating a bit to draw back the hardness slightly and punch out the broke off taps, with a bit of practice you can remove broke taps with minimal damage to the part. It is however, time consuming and will not always work.
"Barely scratched the surface", yeah we have seen that.
*pays 30k for his third cnc mill -„I am looking for a made in China aesthetics.“
I am impressed by the degree of practical knowledge this guy has - knowing engineering and coding in theory is one thing, being able to set up a new machine perfectly fine is a another. Knowing what step to next... yes, fine... but actually doing it produces a whole lot of questions on how exactly doing it without potentially wrecking the machine early, if not executed well enough. Great job!
True story: My Dad couldn't get a piece of equipment into the basement, so he ended up jackhammering through the foundations (of a two storey house), put wedges and lally columns in to jack the whole structure up about 3 ft, added several courses of block to the existing foundations to build them up, and then set the (by now wobbling in the breeze) structure back down on the raised foundations. My Mom freaked out- we were living in the house at the time!
