As usual another fantastic and extremely useful video. Just ordered the parts from Amazon today!
I use both the surface grinder and knife vise on EVERY knife I make. They are invaluable tools for sure! Thanks for watching, Mike!
Awesome tutorial Mr Tyrrell. Thanks for the video
I’m glad it was helpful!
Excellent video! Thank you very much! Congratulations on the feature knife in Blade Magazine!
Thanks so much, Brett! I'm glad this video was helpful.
Thx for making this I really wanted to see the vise but to make it even better I'm working on my own surface grinder so this gave me some great ideas.. thank you
Glad I could help! They really aren't that hard to make and certainly cheaper than you can buy them at $900-$1100 for the surface grinder attachment.
Today I am hopeful to finish my knife maker's vice. Your vice is alsome and instructions great job
I see advantages to adding a surface grinder and like your setup
Thanks
I'm happy this video helped you. I will soon be offering pre-built mag chucks for people to buy. I know it's tough for people who don't have a mill to make these. All the other parts are easy purchases and there will be links to get them.
Great job really enjoyed watching it
Thanks, Fred. I’m glad you liked it.
Glad you made this video! I want to make a surface grinder so I’ll definitely be using this info!🔥⚒💪🏻
It was easy to build and sooo useful! 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks Sorry, I should have been more specific. The plate that you attached the linear slide table and tooling arm to mount the wheel.
Super cool setup
Thanks Ryan!
Very timely information for me. Wrestling with building a VFD-controlled 9 inch disk grinder or an attachment to my 2/72 like yours for surface grinding. Obviously your system has more control!
Great, I hope this helped you a bit! 👍
Are there any other tools that you are curious about? Let me know if there are other topics you want to see for future Triple-T videos!
How long did you make the metal plate that you sand on?
@@yax75 If you're referring to the mag-chuck made from aluminum, I think mine is only 12". It could easily be made longer and you could get longer slide rails as well.
@@TyrellKnifeworks no the knife vise. LoL
@@yax75 Ohh.. that's purely up to you and what size knives you usually make. I built mine about 16" so that about 10" protrudes from the vise and you can do kitchen knives.
@@TyrellKnifeworks thanks man, I went 12" and thought maybe I went too long. Love your content.
Man, I love that new intro! Harder up and down for sure. Funny timing, I have a video coming out tomorrow going over an upgrade to my SGA. I have it operating in a horizontal position now. Much nicer to use for sure.... I think it's worth noting that that black "table" got a little sloppy on me. I think having it in the vertical position may have put more stress on that table over time...There aren't any gibbs in there, so I shimmed it to tighten it up with some 0.005'' shim stock and it working fine now. I really like your set up and build on the SGA.
Thanks, I do like the new intro too. Worth the money I spent to have it made. (which wasn't much). I haven't had any slop on the table and I've been using this one for over a year and its still rock solid. You did a great video on the whole build, which I didn't do and that's helped a lot of people. I know lots of folks who reference your video on FB. 😉
I've seen a version of that vise where you drill a hole through the table and put the clamping-system on the table mount, so you can set up swords and such on it with the handle facing up.
Oh, that's a cool idea! I don't do many long blades so horizontal is better for me but I can certainly see a usefulness for vertical at times. Thanks for the idea!
If I can find some pipe tomorrow, I'll have a nice vice by the days end. Love your videos, man.
I’m happy to hear you are getting something out of them! 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks got some pipe, but my #7 bit won't cut the pipe steel.
@@Stillpoint23 time for some new drill bits I think.
Both of those tools look very useful. Robert Loveless called the horizontal vice his secret weapon.
The horizontal vice certainly is helpful! Thanks for checking out the build, Jeff!
Just wanna say huge fan here! You have inspired me to try so many new things I honestly never thought I could accomplish. I am attempting the surface grinder build. I added the three parts you included in the description. Do you have a list of any other miscellaneous parts I would need? Thanks
That’s great, Adam! You’ll need some 1/2 bolts and nuts and some other sizes but otherwise there’s not much else. Good luck! Email me if you have questions. 👍
Supper informative video. I actually started making a knife vice a while back outa of just whatever I could find. It ended up being way more complicated than it needed to be so I scratched it lol I'll be looking for some 4" and 3 1/2" pipe to build one that I can finish without so much frustration
You can go with smaller pipe too, but I do chef knives so I wanted to be able to support 3 inch width knives. Thanks Nate!
Well, I really like clever style blades too so i figure I'll have more options with a bigger I.D. but the one i started with would have been limited to narrower blades. I was just using some square tubing i found. It would work,,,,but i think i was over thinking it lol
The problem with square tubing is you can’t really rotate it. I use that feature for handle work sooo much.
I think the knife Vise is the single most important tool for knife-making! Dennis it looks like we're going to be doing a wakizashi build off! To funny how aligned our content is! I'll get with you and see when you're planning on launching that video so we can launch at the same time. 2 for 1 Sundays!
My build of the wakazashi will be a long one and have several parts. This is cool though, we can bounce ideas off each other when we get to the tough parts. 👍
I will not be going traditional 🤣😂
I will, hence it’ll be a long, complex build. 😕
I am going to pair this with a brodbeck grinder.
Awesome!
Thanks for checking out the video
Thank you for the Surface Grinder breakdown! If you made the magnet bed adjustable in two axes could you use it to grind bevels as well?
I guess you could try. I think it just delays the inevitable learning of free hand grinding in my opinion. Thanks for watching.
Ha! Yes indeed, That would be one hell of a lot of filing! Filing those grooves in the surface grinder would be like the scene in Conan where he's pushing the grindstone for what seems like decades. Maybe I could rough in the notches with an angle grinder, finishing them off with a file... the projects are endless when building out the "perfect" knife shop, whewy!
Yeah but you do what you gotta! 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks and that's what keeps me ticking (a nod to the headline of @greenbeetle's latest video 😁). I dig how j.keeton makes tools as the need arises, like in his 2021 Bowie build video (I was shocked that he bought a file guide for that build!) That dude is the definition of the DIY tool guy! Anyhoo, once my revolution 2x72 is complete, I'll probably jump into the surface grinder project. My boss has a vintage mill at his shop, the name is on the tip of my tongue but 'brodbeck' keeps popping into my recall function. However, I'm not sure he has up and running yet since the last I saw, it has become yet another flat surface to place stuff on. I'll ask him Monday what's up
@@Stillpoint23 I’m sure it’s probably a “Bridgeport” mill. They are the gold standard.
@@TyrellKnifeworks yep, that's it. It's a beautiful machine. He said he paid $500 for it, another $500 for delivery. I don't know much about milling machines, but that sounds like a damn good deal to me.
How about this stormy weather! Are y'all getting pounded out there too? It's about time we got drenched :)
@@Stillpoint23 $1000?! Those things are 10k+! Great deal. Yeah it hasn’t stopped pouring here.
Awesome
Thanks for watching.
Two questions…Which sliding table is it that is needed for this? The link brings me to the Amazon page and there’s two options. One is $135 and the other is $85…AND, where can a guy find the 4” wheel? Thanks!! Definitely going to build this. I especially love the angle on yours. Great idea!
The expensive one has a locking mechanism but you don’t need that. Go with the cheap one. I got my 4” wheel from Origin Blade Maker. I hope that helps.
ایده جالبی بود 👍
من از این تقریبا در هر ساختنی استفاده می کنم! 👍🏻
Do you have a build vid for the surface grinder attachment?
No, sorry. But once you buy the parts, it’s quite easy to figure out.
@@TyrellKnifeworks 10-4. Other than the parts listed, what else is needed? Just a wheel and some flat and bar stock?
You’ll need 1.5 x 2” aluminum bar for the mag Chuck. If you don’t have a mill, you can set a stop on your drill press and then file the rest. Good luck!
Very nice. Would you give the size and dimensions for the aluminum plate?
The piece of aluminum for the mag Chuck was 1” x 2” x 16”, if that’s what you’re asking.
@@TyrellKnifeworks I’m sorry, I should have been more specific. The aluminum plate that the slide table and the tooling arm is attached to.
@@cowboyferreira9632 that was 1/2” thick. I believe it was 1/2” x 6”x 12” and I cut it down.
All the tools you make for your shop for knife making are so cool. Next time you make a new tool for your shop could you record and post it so we can replicate your designs and methods?
Thanks Andrew! I will say though that my shop is pretty much fitted out now for the major tooling. I'm sure there will be some smaller tools I'll be making. I really want a guillotine tool for my anvil so that might be one I make some day. Thanks for watching!
i would love a surface grinder for my OBM GRINDER i dont own a mill so not sure what im gonna do OBM sells there suface grinder attacment for $899 i think good video thanks
You can buy a cheap magnetic chuck online for a hundred bucks. The other parts are about $200 total.... that's a lot cheaper than $900 (plus tax and shipping). 👍🏻
I wasn't here for a week and I missed new intro coming up! Denis, it's very cool! Am I seeing "forged in fire" inspiration :)?
About the video: I still don't have surface grinder (don't have time to make it)- tool I terribly need! I'm super happy that you show it- I must find components in Poland (I love this simple construction you have- it looks like "10min" build).
One question: I was plan to make a knife vise with hinge to make rotation in all 3 axis possible. This require more work and take more time. What do you thing about this solution? Are you happy with you vise? Or maybe you would change something?
The surface grinder is super useful, I use it all the time. For the knife vise, I wouldn't really change anything on it. I'm pretty happy with it and it does exactly what I needed. Someone put a comment in that it would be nice to be able to swivel it so the knife was vertical. An interesting idea but not something I need.
@@TyrellKnifeworks Yes, that's exactly what I want to do in mine. When I'm using a normal vise, I usually position knife an in angle to the ground (not parallel as it's possible in yours). I'm asking about the comfort, because I'm not sure about this solution- maybe it's too complicated and I won't be using it.
@@DBCraftWorld It comes down to what you want to do with the knife in the vise. I use it for hand sanding the blade and hand sanding the handle. Both I do when the knife is horizontal so I don't need or want it vertical. It's just my opinion of course.
@@TyrellKnifeworks Yes, it's totally on smith side. Most of works I do standing- so having a blade/handle in line with an eye (how I do) requires knife vise on very high position (above the table) or, an in angle at the table.
So that is why I'm thinking about this hinge
Здоровья вам с Донбасса, удачное решение на одном шасси с роликом гриндера , всего вам хорошего в жизни
Я рада, что тебе понравилась сборка. Спасибо за просмотр!
👍💯
I’ll be doing a build video of the surface grinder in a few weeks. Thanks for watching
