You are way smarter than 99.99999% of all the machinist in the world, if someone is questioning what or how your doing something its only because they either don't understand why they are asking the question or trying to troll you. As an experienced machinist I have yet to question a single thing I've seen in any one of your videos. Thank you for sharing!!!
When the goofball commenters (not Tyler) have built a big CNC shop, then sold it - then maybe they have creds to comment. These jokers commenting would have trouble hiring and keeping a handful of guys. Most all of us are so glad to have your view into super high end machining. Take Care.
The vast majority of his viewers are experienced machinists or tool makers themselves. And yet they come here to learn. Just imagine being Peters coworker for just 1-2 years. You would be a different machinist.
Hi Peter, Nil Desperandum. We all know there is more than one way to skin a cat. I have been doing this stuff for over 40 years, and I can tell you that you are a Master at what you do. Sure Titan and his crew ( not a fan), can knock out a decent part, but you work with what you have, and that my friend is what makes a tradesman, keep up the good work, best wishes, Mal.
What Titans of CNC do basically is product placement with their videos, and ofc in them you see nothing more than perfection, because that's what and how you do when you have to promote a tool, a machine or both. 100% sure they make stupid mistakes too, and not always everything and everybody are 101% efficient. Reality is what is behind the camera, not in front of.
exactly.. I have done mechanical work for 40 years, with manual and cnc machines, we had to find clever ways to do things, we had to use the old worn out tools but it always worked out ok
I would say what Peter does is what an actual machine shop looks like. I would call titan a Hollywood machinist. Not to take away from what he does I learned plenty from his academy. However very few of us get brand new machines and top of the line tooling we have to make the best out of what we have
i think your probably one of the best machinist ive seen! I think everyone problem is they see titan do all this high speed machining make the machine go as fast as it can, its overrated! They don't realizes titan gets his tools pretty much for free that's why he can do that. I appreciate all the videos and work you put into them peter!
Peter, I have been doing machine work for over 40 years, and have worked around good machinist, you are very impressive, anybody that will criticize anything you do is not worth paying any attention to, keep up the good work, I learn something every time I watch you
For every one of the 'know it all' types, there's 100 of us that actually work in the trade who hold you in very high regard Peter. Don't ever forget that, don't let the idiots discourage you.
There are always people who will tell you how to spend your money. And some will be happy to tell you everything you do wrong. I like to watch your videos not for the things I do. But for the things I dont do, I learn from you and others by finding what is different. I am grateful for the effort you put into your work. I own my own shop and for many years I have worked alone. And then you only learn from your own mistakes. Reaching out to other online helps me expand what I do and your videos about how you use your Mazak really changed how I thought about those machines. Thanks. Charles
I think your videos are great especially the fixtures and programming. I’m thinking of buying a large 5axis machine and enjoy watching your ops. Thanks for the content!
Don't sell yourself short, your way of doing things has gotten you this far, farther than allot of other people. It's easy to be a monday morning quarter back, its a whole different thing to actually do it, not to mention put out the video for everyone to see. As a younger guy in the trade your videos have been incredibly informative and interesting to watch. Nobody else on youtube does what you do, I think that in and of itself should speak to the value of your work, and the skill and effort that has gone into it.
It is sad to see, people trying to school you on your machine, which they don't work with. Personaly i watch your videos because i want to learn new fixtures techniques/ order of operations. Don't let anyone tell you how to do your job. Keep up the great work.
Great video! I love watching these videos because I run basically the same machine but the Mori version. I really appreciate learning from you on these because I have nobody at my company to teach me. Don’t worry about the negative comments, that reflects their insecurity and you don’t have to deal with that. Thanks for sharing! And glad to see more videos coming out. :)
Pay them no heed I am sure the overwhelming amount of people like myself enjoy your videos for what they are and anyway like you said if they don't like it they don't have to watch, I follow several machinists and everyone of them have said the exact same thing you have said, it's not necessarily the right way to do something but it's your way to do it and that should be good enough for anyone. Thanks for the time and effort that you put into these videos.
It really bothers me that people would get my favorite machinist in this kind of mood. Peter has more skill and ingenuity than anyone I've heard call themselves machinist.
I don’t comment on a lot of videos, but I wanted to on this one. I have learned a ton from the things you show in your videos, especially around work holding and indicating. I’m thankful for any knowledge that you share. It didn’t cost me anything but a little time, and that time has always been well spent watching what you have to say. I’m sorry that you preemptively feel like you have say what you did about this video. It’s one of the reasons that sometimes I am hesitant to show video content machining parts on my channel. Every seems to be an expert when they comment on what we show in the videos, yet they have nothing on their channels. Thanks for all the great content over the years.
Not having time to finish the set of anvils is a good thing as it means you have more then enough paid work. Saying that I look forward to your videos, like most here I subscribed to your channel to see how you meticulously plan and execute your work. Most of the folk here do not criticize so I guess they are here for similar reasons as myself. Try to ignore the critics who are just looking for a soap box to air their opinions. Carry on doing what you do...
I totally agree it as if some just have to comment to be noticed. You continue and enjoy what one does, as do I as that's all that matters. Take care. Its fascinating to me a ballet in 3D machining.
Hey Peter, Can you speak a little bit about how the MRZP works on your Mazak? I'm curious on the accuracy of the Mazak's Dynamic Work Offset (G254 equivalent on Haas) and TCPC (G234 equivalent on Haas) and how happy you are with its performance (despite being a bit of an older machine & control). Does Mazak allow for full simultaneous 5axis cutter compensation? I ask because I'm currently struggling with my Haas VF3 + TR210 trunnion not having the ability to apply cutter compensation within full simultaneous 5-axis motion - Haas just doesn't have this feature. Thanks!
Peter you have helped more people than you realize. Just think about all of those young people watching your vetoes. Seeing how complex jobs are really done. Some of those complex parts would scare probably 90% of machinist in the whole country. Thanks for making all of those vetoes.
You the man Peter! Anyone who knows what's up knows spending hours refining toolpaths on a one-off not for profit part is a waste of time. The only ppl that would do that are the ones that think they need to prove something, which you certainly do not.
they weren't raised right, are envious/jealous, and they aren't smart enough to think their way out of a proverbial wet paper bag...it's a power trip in their miserable unaccomplished lives. Social media is a double edged sword, and this is why many channels disallow comments, or monitor them like FSB/Roskomnadzor.
You are the legend of machining between our friends. Even the mazak has the worst control unit you rock with that machine. I can not imagine if you had the latest hightech machines. Keep posting. We will be watching.
Well, if they all want to make comments then they all should make a tube video and show it...as far as I'm concerned the feeds and speeds info tool mfg. give is just a baseline...as you know you can have two pieces of 6160 aluminum from the same bar stock and they can cut and finish totally different from one another... As with yourself, given the book given the machine and a 45 min. tutorial video start spitting out parts...so I myself have learned a lot from you and a couple others. I appreciate the time and efforts you put into these tutorials... I grew up old school and it has been a big change programming and running CNC equipment without formal education...So thank you and keep educating....
Viewers who think they can improve on the tool paths should show the math they will use (-: having read some peer reviewed papers on trochoidal paths I will warn you now that this is not high school math ! Nil carborundum illegitimi Peter , while you are actually producing the goods the haters can only talk, and talk is worth as much as a political promise, maybe less.
Man I love watching your videos,,,I learned the people who I can't make happy most of the time it's because they have problems 🙃, hey its youtube,,any publicity is good publicity lol
I truly appreciate your expertise and watching your videos. Your insight on your machining/ programing strategies are something I can always learn from . Thanks for sharing your knowledge and videos !!
As far as I can tell you are incredibly talented. I say this with 40 years of milling and turning, some 6&8 axis mill/turn but nothing close to the parts you make, whoever said that you didn’t know what you’re doing is an idiot.
Peter, I honestly wonder how many RUclips "experts" are an "expert" because they have watched a couple of RUclips machining videos, and parrot back what they heard the guy in his garage say in those videos, but they have never personally been near any form of machine tool fancier than a hand drill. I especially wonder this about all the OSHA Inspectors that scream to the heavens when they watch a video of some Pakistani guy sweeping a floor, and not wearing steel toed shoes, tethered fall arrest harness, gloves, face shield, respirator, and hard hat with the chin strap tightened. I'd lay pretty good odds that they don't know that OSHA isn't a UN police organization that monitors and fines the whole world.
Bro, screw those guys. You are a true machinist! Don’t let them get you down. I’ve been watching you for years now and I’m continually learning something from you. Whatever speeds and feeds work for you is all that matters. All depends on setup and machine rigidity and spindle horsepower etc. It’s will never be the same from shop to shop or from machinist to machinist. Love your work immensely. Just got an integrex of my own at our shop with no training and the first thing I did was start watching your videos all over again. You saved me and my shop by putting your knowledge out there. It’s not just entertainment, it’s educational for everyone and if anyone wants to tell you you’re wrong, it means is that they haven’t truly figured it out for themselves. I used to teach college students in a manufacturing processes lab and they all claim to know it all until they’re put on the spot. You talk the talk and walk the walk. Keep up the great work and I’ll see you in the next video! P.s. if you want to go more in depth with the integrex setups, I wouldn’t judge! I need all the help I can get with our new machine! Cheers!
I see that my comment is the same as most other viewers, but Peter, You are undoubtedly the best machinist, and teacher of logic behind tool choice and patterns. I sincerely appreciate your content and I use your videos as examples in teaching kids at our local school. RESPECT!!
Sticks and Stones, pay no attention to the bar room experts, you are trying to share your skills to help others gain knowledge, I have learnt a lot watching you work on job's, not only watching you but your comments and ideas are a plesure! Rock On! The moaners are not worth dwelling a second on. Every bar has it's expert that has achieved nothing in there life they usually sit at the end of the bar moaning and unhappy!
Why would someone comment in criticism of your methods? Makes no sense whatsoever. Peter sure seems extremely knowledgeable with his machines. If you don't like it don''t watch.
You know most of us just enjoy your videos full stop but il bet you all those perfect machining commentors don't have a youtube channel but just can't help themselves but criticize I luv the content please keep up the good work u doing an awesome job....
I'm always super careful to clean all the chips from my clothing before coming back into the house but a few seem to make it in every time. I laughed in the opening of your video when I saw a big one stuck to the back of your shirt. I thought, "that sneaky bugger is going home with him!"
In my experience people who feel like they have to prove that how good they are or try to tell you how good they are are normally the worst. I have started to watch your videos a few years ago and I have subscribed to your channel because I have found it interesting the way you work and you do things. You didn’t try to tell us how good you are not even once. But you have lots of experience and I have learned a lot from you. Some of the things you do I never even heard about it before. So what I would like to say is keep up the good work and we would like to see much more videos from you. Thanks.
You can't worry about people on the internet because the person being critical most of the time has as much experience as you have forgotten over the years of machining you have. Anyone who wants to learn how to do it right should be watching you because it works. Just don't worry about it and don't give them the time of day because it truth that's what they are looking for. The one thing you'll notice is that as soon as you acknowledge something they said made you address them, it invites more of it! You do you and that far and above what anyone of us can expect. You don't have to take the time showing us all your experience you have developed over the years but you do and I for one want to tell you it is appreciated. keep up the great work I know it's not easy to make these videos. Love your work.
Read a quote from Ricky Gervais recently that I think might apply to the keyboard warriors. “It’s better to create something that others criticise than to create nothing and criticise others” I really enjoy this channel and hope you continue to make entertaining content for all of us.
I find it interesting that the most talented tradesmen, the most capable, seem to get the most haters whether its out in the working world or in youtube videos. Not to brag, but being good at what I do in my work always drew a lot of jealousy. I think a lot of it was the fact that I really enjoyed my work and there was always someone who wanted to spoil that for me, to take it away and have it for themselves. I wish everyone enjoyment and satisfaction in their work. They say that misery enjoys company. As such I learned very early on to not take those people seriously. In fact I tend to pity them for not finding these things in themselves, but rather comparing themselves to other people. Please keep on doing what you're doing. I appreciate you and your contribution to the rest of us.
I appreciate what you do and think you do a great job. You don't get jobs machining $30000 parts if you can't produce the parts. I get people commenting on my videos all the time I don't know what I am doing or I am a hack. It is fine as I get plenty of repeat customers so I guess they like it. LOL Normally most of the jobs I get are the ones nobody else can do. Thanks for putting out the content that you do.
Ignore the negative comments Peter. The level of work you do speaks for itself and if you couldn’t do it your wouldn’t get that work. I think sadly that a lot of people work in environments where they have bosses that yell at them if they don’t do things a certain way and eventually they wind up thinking that’s the only way.
Boss, anyone saying you don't know machining is a damn fool. My comments were always meant to be just another bit of info that someone might see and find helpful.
maby,, if you set tolerances you program size goes down .. in mastercam i set tolerances to 0.1 -0.5 for Rough .. you machin goes faster and smooth you horn ar not arc but 1000000 arc .. her you can save program size .. manny dont think aboud this settings ,, somtimes i goes harf size ,, sorry my bad english
To give you an idea. The whole program without the 5 axis part including the roughing the finish milling and all the corner rounding is only 600 K. But just the 5 axis on the horn is 2600 K even with the tolerance set to .003” on it. To get a decent finish on this kind of cycle. I usually set this at .0005”. But at that setting just the 5 axis cut is 6000 K file size.
@@EdgePrecisionokay .. thanks peter .. on my small maho400t i can drip feed and send prg on normal way rs232 cabel .. I have to set the tolerance up to 0.1-0.2 metric, otherwise it stops all the time, it's an old machine with a small memory
@@gertkristensen6451 my machine it has a network connection it doesn’t have a rs232 port. I thought I could run off the hard drive. Someone said that might be possible. But I can’t get the machine to do it.
The thing I hate the most in this trade is that for most people if you're doing something in a different way than how they would do it, then you're doing it wrong. Telling you that "you don't know how to machine" is like telling to Rocco Siffredi he doesn't know how to fuck.
Don’t let the negative Nancy’s get you down. The more they talk about everything they know the easier it is to realize how full of it they are. They don’t have the mental capacity to realize there are no absolutes in machining.
It takes very little effort to point out what is wrong. I don't pay attention to criticism unless the messenger says "let me show you" or let me help you". I then know the individual is trying to make me better at what i do. Your videos are great Peter. I have learned a ton from you. Please keep making them.
Don't let the bad comments get to you, same as the dislikes, they all add up in the algorithm to move you up as the algorithm detects participation which = interest in the channel.
Hey Peter, the only expertise I have is being an expert of myself. No one is an expert of others in there professional and personal lives so anyone who says there are experts on a subject matter are full of themselves and there comments should be taken with a grain of salt.
you sound ,, i dont like it ,, not you peter . 🙂 . it muffles background noise too much, .. i now is not easy .. you are a good machinist 100 times over other youtubers
Amen. I had a long rant to give as well, but in the machining world and trades, it seems that if you are some what effective, there are those that want to “tear down” rather than help build.
Trust me we have all worked with the type of people that can do better than ever one else. They eat alone at tea break and spend all there work day alone all so and can run the hole company better than the boss but for some reason they are still on the shop floor ? Your doing just fine with out showing of one little bit
Very cool! You going to IMTS? I will be there every day. Come by the Syil Booth if you do and say hi. Are these the 50k subscriber anvils? They look fantastic!
Comon-man! Everyone loves you, respects you, admires you, its why we all watch! Don't let a couple of debbie-downers fool you! You are the first machinest I've ever seen who isn't a butcher, not running down anyone, brute force has a place, and in the end, a job well done gives us all Cheer, but YOU are a maestro, doing cutting edge stuff, NO ONE has ever seen before. Don't forget that brother! People are in AWE of you!
Thanks craftycri? I don't make comments like this because of a lack of confidence in my ability. It's more to let people (The people I'm referring to are the ones who can't resist making those comments.) know of what I'm presenting. All I can do is show what I have learned over the years. I'm not in some kind of competition with them, on what I know, or how I do things. If they want to be an expert then so be it. I don't care.
Did someone really comment that you don't know what you're doing? naaaaaaah no way, really? In public with their real name? Brother, that's the only way they'll get any attention, other than stepping in dog poo. As my son says, if they're hating on you, you're doing something right.
Lol.. 2Mb of ram ... we ran a bank on a Systems36 in the 90s, you're lucky to get an I Frame of video that small these days. Should be able to address more than 2MB and add more ram.. perhaps compressing G-code too.
Great content!! Been folllowing you without posting anything for a long time. This has nothing to do with the video but I have been asking myself this question for a while; what software do you use for your CAD and CAM software ? Thanks for what you offer you content.
I don't want to give the idea that I don't want comments. I do! If people have questions or legitimate critiques, I welcome the conversation. To me anyway. When I see a channel with the comments disabled on a video. It seems a bit cowardly of the presenter. The only reason I made this little rant (will call it) is. I don't want to appear like I'm saying I know everything in my videos and you must be the person that is wrong if you don't agree. But for some reason these people that make comments like these think were in some kind of competition. This I don't like. If they want to be the expert then so be it. I will let history decide.
The camera picks up all kinds of noise from the machine. I try to put a denoise filter on in some places. To get rid of some intense noise. Also the video is speed up a lot. I think the denoise filter doesn’t work or misinterprets the speed up sound track that I mark as, don’t change the tone. Otherwise it sounds like speed up audio. This whole thing with sound in the machine is very difficult. Do you for instance notice when I have the camera stuck to the spindle (the clips moving with the cut). How the sound from the spindle is transmitted thru the cameras mount. I try to equalize it. But it is difficult. I spend a lot of time on the sound. And still can’t get it right. So I at sometime have to say. That’s enough and just post it.
2401 lines 0.5 step down short prg,,,,, normal 49977 lines .. just ac segment goes bigger from maby 1000 small segments to 10 -15 its just a cirkel brake in segments .. just a quick test that i can do it
There may be newer machines that can do different interpolated paths like splines or something of that nature. This machine doesn’t have those options. But with 5axis tool path there is no plane of arcs. All axi are moving at once. So generally it’s small segments.
If it means anything to you, I just subscribed. Been watching you, in the background, for quite some time. LOVE the content and/or explaination! I wonder if these know-it-alls ever consider the differences in machines, that can/could alter the finnish: Age, rigidity, tool harmonics, has the machine been crashed causing minute slop, hell, even the sharpness/geometry of the tool.... None-the-less, keep up the amazing work Bro, and try to just ignore the fools, ja? Cheers!
great video as always, by the way about the comments that you mentioned in the start of the video: i see perfectionist that is mentioning few questionable comments among hundreds of other great comments, exactly like you did at the end of the video, you mentioned the 0.1% of the finish that needs correction but in reality 99.9% of the finish of the anvil is perfect. Thank you for sharing!
Keep up the good work Peter! My father and I are your big fans. You pull off unimaginable things with the Mazak. I am awe struck with your programming skills with the Numroto. Thanks for sharing.
Don't listen to those ignorant people. I like your videos I learn a lot. And you know a lot. I would like to know everything you know. Keep making videos. from Chelmsford Massachusetts
Your channel speaks for itself... the comments...it's easy to sit on the keyboard and give explanations to the whole world... you do and it makes a big difference... Beautiful...one for me please🤩

they weren't raised right, are envious/jealous, and they aren't smart enough to think their way out of a proverbial wet paper bag...it's a power trip in their miserable unaccomplished lives. Social media is a double edged sword, and this is why many channels disallow comments, or monitor them like FSB/Roskomnadzor.
You are the legend of machining between our friends. Even the mazak has the worst control unit you rock with that machine. I can not imagine if you had the latest hightech machines. Keep posting. We will be watching.
Well, if they all want to make comments then they all should make a tube video and show it...as far as I'm concerned the feeds and speeds info tool mfg. give is just a baseline...as you know you can have two pieces of 6160 aluminum from the same bar stock and they can cut and finish totally different from one another...
As with yourself, given the book given the machine and a 45 min. tutorial video start spitting out parts...so I myself have learned a lot from you and a couple others. I appreciate the time and efforts you put into these tutorials... I grew up old school and it has been a big change programming and running CNC equipment without formal education...So thank you and keep educating....
Viewers who think they can improve on the tool paths should show the math they will use (-: having read some peer reviewed papers on trochoidal paths I will warn you now that this is not high school math ! Nil carborundum illegitimi Peter , while you are actually producing the goods the haters can only talk, and talk is worth as much as a political promise, maybe less.
Man I love watching your videos,,,I learned the people who I can't make happy most of the time it's because they have problems 🙃, hey its youtube,,any publicity is good publicity lol
Peter your work is realy amazing. Your video work and Sharing is also top stuff. And Damm I won't one of those Anvils.
I truly appreciate your expertise and watching your videos. Your insight on your machining/ programing strategies are something I can always learn from . Thanks for sharing your knowledge and videos !!
As far as I can tell you are incredibly talented. I say this with 40 years of milling and turning, some 6&8 axis mill/turn but nothing close to the parts you make, whoever said that you didn’t know what you’re doing is an idiot.
Peter, I honestly wonder how many RUclips "experts" are an "expert" because they have watched a couple of RUclips machining videos, and parrot back what they heard the guy in his garage say in those videos, but they have never personally been near any form of machine tool fancier than a hand drill.
I especially wonder this about all the OSHA Inspectors that scream to the heavens when they watch a video of some Pakistani guy sweeping a floor, and not wearing steel toed shoes, tethered fall arrest harness, gloves, face shield, respirator, and hard hat with the chin strap tightened. I'd lay pretty good odds that they don't know that OSHA isn't a UN police organization that monitors and fines the whole world.
Bro, screw those guys. You are a true machinist! Don’t let them get you down. I’ve been watching you for years now and I’m continually learning something from you. Whatever speeds and feeds work for you is all that matters. All depends on setup and machine rigidity and spindle horsepower etc. It’s will never be the same from shop to shop or from machinist to machinist. Love your work immensely. Just got an integrex of my own at our shop with no training and the first thing I did was start watching your videos all over again. You saved me and my shop by putting your knowledge out there. It’s not just entertainment, it’s educational for everyone and if anyone wants to tell you you’re wrong, it means is that they haven’t truly figured it out for themselves. I used to teach college students in a manufacturing processes lab and they all claim to know it all until they’re put on the spot. You talk the talk and walk the walk. Keep up the great work and I’ll see you in the next video!
P.s. if you want to go more in depth with the integrex setups, I wouldn’t judge! I need all the help I can get with our new machine!
Cheers!
I see that my comment is the same as most other viewers, but Peter, You are undoubtedly the best machinist, and teacher of logic behind tool choice and patterns. I sincerely appreciate your content and I use your videos as examples in teaching kids at our local school. RESPECT!!
Sticks and Stones, pay no attention to the bar room experts, you are trying to share your skills to help others gain knowledge, I have learnt a lot watching you work on job's, not only watching you but your comments and ideas are a plesure! Rock On!
The moaners are not worth dwelling a second on. Every bar has it's expert that has achieved nothing in there life they usually sit at the end of the bar moaning and unhappy!
Why would someone comment in criticism of your methods? Makes no sense whatsoever. Peter sure seems extremely knowledgeable with his machines. If you don't like it don''t watch.
ICWeld says ...This is a "how I do" not "how to do" video. Really enjoy how you do things. Paul, Scotland
You know most of us just enjoy your videos full stop but il bet you all those perfect machining commentors don't have a youtube channel but just can't help themselves but criticize I luv the content please keep up the good work u doing an awesome job....
Peter your work speaks for it self,The haters will always hate,Learn so from your video's I use it in my job,great job
I'm always super careful to clean all the chips from my clothing before coming back into the house but a few seem to make it in every time. I laughed in the opening of your video when I saw a big one stuck to the back of your shirt. I thought, "that sneaky bugger is going home with him!"
In my experience people who feel like they have to prove that how good they are or try to tell you how good they are are normally the worst. I have started to watch your videos a few years ago and I have subscribed to your channel because I have found it interesting the way you work and you do things. You didn’t try to tell us how good you are not even once. But you have lots of experience and I have learned a lot from you. Some of the things you do I never even heard about it before. So what I would like to say is keep up the good work and we would like to see much more videos from you. Thanks.
You can't worry about people on the internet because the person being critical most of the time has as much experience as you have forgotten over the years of machining you have. Anyone who wants to learn how to do it right should be watching you because it works. Just don't worry about it and don't give them the time of day because it truth that's what they are looking for. The one thing you'll notice is that as soon as you acknowledge something they said made you address them, it invites more of it! You do you and that far and above what anyone of us can expect. You don't have to take the time showing us all your experience you have developed over the years but you do and I for one want to tell you it is appreciated. keep up the great work I know it's not easy to make these videos. Love your work.
Read a quote from Ricky Gervais recently that I think might apply to the keyboard warriors. “It’s better to create something that others criticise than to create nothing and criticise others”
I really enjoy this channel and hope you continue to make entertaining content for all of us.
I find it interesting that the most talented tradesmen, the most capable, seem to get the most haters whether its out in the working world or in youtube videos.
Not to brag, but being good at what I do in my work always drew a lot of jealousy. I think a lot of it was the fact that I really enjoyed my work and there was always someone who wanted to spoil that for me, to take it away and have it for themselves. I wish everyone enjoyment and satisfaction in their work. They say that misery enjoys company. As such I learned very early on to not take those people seriously. In fact I tend to pity them for not finding these things in themselves, but rather comparing themselves to other people.
Please keep on doing what you're doing. I appreciate you and your contribution to the rest of us.
I appreciate what you do and think you do a great job. You don't get jobs machining $30000 parts if you can't produce the parts. I get people commenting on my videos all the time I don't know what I am doing or I am a hack. It is fine as I get plenty of repeat customers so I guess they like it. LOL Normally most of the jobs I get are the ones nobody else can do. Thanks for putting out the content that you do.
Ignore the negative comments Peter. The level of work you do speaks for itself and if you couldn’t do it your wouldn’t get that work.
I think sadly that a lot of people work in environments where they have bosses that yell at them if they don’t do things a certain way and eventually they wind up thinking that’s the only way.
Are these people mad you’ve forgot more about machining than most of them will ever know thanks for the vids I’ve watched all of them
Unfortunately Some people live their lives purched up on the peak curve of the Dunning-kruger effect.
Is there any way to get your hands on a bigger memory for the machine? And never forget that 99.99% of us here enjoys watching your videos.
Boss, anyone saying you don't know machining is a damn fool. My comments were always meant to be just another bit of info that someone might see and find helpful.
maby,, if you set tolerances you program size goes down .. in mastercam i set tolerances to 0.1 -0.5 for Rough .. you machin goes faster and smooth you horn ar not arc but 1000000 arc .. her you can save program size .. manny dont think aboud this settings ,, somtimes i goes harf size ,, sorry my bad english
To give you an idea. The whole program without the 5 axis part including the roughing the finish milling and all the corner rounding is only 600 K. But just the 5 axis on the horn is 2600 K even with the tolerance set to .003” on it. To get a decent finish on this kind of cycle. I usually set this at .0005”. But at that setting just the 5 axis cut is 6000 K file size.
@@EdgePrecisionokay .. thanks peter .. on my small maho400t i can drip feed and send prg on normal way rs232 cabel .. I have to set the tolerance up to 0.1-0.2 metric, otherwise it stops all the time, it's an old machine with a small memory
@@gertkristensen6451 my machine it has a network connection it doesn’t have a rs232 port. I thought I could run off the hard drive. Someone said that might be possible. But I can’t get the machine to do it.
The thing I hate the most in this trade is that for most people if you're doing something in a different way than how they would do it, then you're doing it wrong. Telling you that "you don't know how to machine" is like telling to Rocco Siffredi he doesn't know how to fuck.
I've watched for years and I've learned soo much from you. Keep up the good work.
Commenting on RUclips is easy. Building stuff is hard.
Don’t let the negative Nancy’s get you down. The more they talk about everything they know the easier it is to realize how full of it they are. They don’t have the mental capacity to realize there are no absolutes in machining.
Bollocks to the naysayers Peter. We love you for what you are 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
It takes very little effort to point out what is wrong. I don't pay attention to criticism unless the messenger says "let me show you" or let me help you". I then know the individual is trying to make me better at what i do. Your videos are great Peter. I have learned a ton from you. Please keep making them.
Don't let the bad comments get to you, same as the dislikes, they all add up in the algorithm to move you up as the algorithm detects participation which = interest in the channel.
Please keep doing what you do, it's excellent content. Fuck the trolls.
All I’m gonna say is thank you for all the free knowledge your givein out I really appreciate it
Very interesting. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit it and for posting it. Those anvils that you made are awesome!
Hey Peter, the only expertise I have is being an expert of myself. No one is an expert of others in there professional and personal lives so anyone who says there are experts on a subject matter are full of themselves and there comments should be taken with a grain of salt.
Keep up the great work Peter! You are a great teacher of a difficult profession. Forget the morons that make negative comments.
good to see you're back onto these anvils... I've been checking the letter box every day just in case..
I really enjoy your videos and really appreciate the fact that you take the time to explain what you doing . Keep it up!
you sound ,, i dont like it ,, not you peter . 🙂 . it muffles background noise too much, .. i now is not easy .. you are a good machinist 100 times over other youtubers
Thanks for your videos. I find your work very inspirational.
Amen. I had a long rant to give as well, but in the machining world and trades, it seems that if you are some what effective, there are those that want to “tear down” rather than help build.
Some strangely curved tool paths there...
It's hard for people to imagine how anyone could be smarter than they are.
Trust me we have all worked with the type of people that can do better than ever one else. They eat alone at tea break and spend all there work day alone all so and can run the hole company better than the boss but for some reason they are still on the shop floor ? Your doing just fine with out showing of one little bit
What other people think of you is none of your business you're doing it your way and that's what counts for you
Very cool! You going to IMTS? I will be there every day. Come by the Syil Booth if you do and say hi. Are these the 50k subscriber anvils? They look fantastic!
No I won’t be going to IMTS. Yes these are those anvils. They might be the 100k ones by the time they are done though?
Peter, you should make a compilation video of rudest comments lol
That first op just facing the crap out of it till its basically fully roughed out 👍
Comon-man! Everyone loves you, respects you, admires you, its why we all watch! Don't let a couple of debbie-downers fool you! You are the first machinest I've ever seen who isn't a butcher, not running down anyone, brute force has a place, and in the end, a job well done gives us all Cheer, but YOU are a maestro, doing cutting edge stuff, NO ONE has ever seen before. Don't forget that brother! People are in AWE of you!
Thanks craftycri? I don't make comments like this because of a lack of confidence in my ability. It's more to let people (The people I'm referring to are the ones who can't resist making those comments.) know of what I'm presenting. All I can do is show what I have learned over the years. I'm not in some kind of competition with them, on what I know, or how I do things. If they want to be an expert then so be it. I don't care.
Says the prg is shite it’s 99.9% better most of the programs I come across ….
Just do it your way, don't let the bastards get you down! Not worth it. Good video.
Did someone really comment that you don't know what you're doing? naaaaaaah no way, really? In public with their real name? Brother, that's the only way they'll get any attention, other than stepping in dog poo. As my son says, if they're hating on you, you're doing something right.
Lol.. 2Mb of ram ... we ran a bank on a Systems36 in the 90s, you're lucky to get an I Frame of video that small these days. Should be able to address more than 2MB and add more ram.. perhaps compressing G-code too.
Watching that High Feed mill was so satisfying!
Great content!! Been folllowing you without posting anything for a long time.
This has nothing to do with the video but I have been asking myself this question for a while; what software do you use for your CAD and CAM software ?
Thanks for what you offer you content.
For my cad I use SpaceClaim. For the cam I use Esprit TNG for the Mazak and Esprit 2000 for the Mitsubishi horizontal mill.
Shut off the comments. Problem solved. When you want ideas turn on comments on. What ever you do Keep making vids!
I don't want to give the idea that I don't want comments. I do! If people have questions or legitimate critiques, I welcome the conversation. To me anyway. When I see a channel with the comments disabled on a video. It seems a bit cowardly of the presenter. The only reason I made this little rant (will call it) is. I don't want to appear like I'm saying I know everything in my videos and you must be the person that is wrong if you don't agree. But for some reason these people that make comments like these think were in some kind of competition. This I don't like. If they want to be the expert then so be it. I will let history decide.
Your videos are very valueable to me! Thank you!
Hi Peter, could you flame harden the top face?
5:30 Are you machining underwater? sounds like it. :)
The camera picks up all kinds of noise from the machine. I try to put a denoise filter on in some places. To get rid of some intense noise. Also the video is speed up a lot. I think the denoise filter doesn’t work or misinterprets the speed up sound track that I mark as, don’t change the tone. Otherwise it sounds like speed up audio. This whole thing with sound in the machine is very difficult. Do you for instance notice when I have the camera stuck to the spindle (the clips moving with the cut). How the sound from the spindle is transmitted thru the cameras mount. I try to equalize it. But it is difficult. I spend a lot of time on the sound. And still can’t get it right. So I at sometime have to say. That’s enough and just post it.
Awesome job, really liked the video.
Comment are worth what you
What you pay for them. Good job
I'll show them, the haters, I will watch it and like it.
2401 lines 0.5 step down short prg,,,,, normal 49977 lines .. just ac segment goes bigger from maby 1000 small segments to 10 -15 its just a cirkel brake in segments .. just a quick test that i can do it
There may be newer machines that can do different interpolated paths like splines or something of that nature. This machine doesn’t have those options. But with 5axis tool path there is no plane of arcs. All axi are moving at once. So generally it’s small segments.
Thanks - machine marks mostly look cool
If it means anything to you, I just subscribed. Been watching you, in the background, for quite some time. LOVE the content and/or explaination! I wonder if these know-it-alls ever consider the differences in machines, that can/could alter the finnish: Age, rigidity, tool harmonics, has the machine been crashed causing minute slop, hell, even the sharpness/geometry of the tool.... None-the-less, keep up the amazing work Bro, and try to just ignore the fools, ja? Cheers!
ignore the haters. keep doing you!!!
great video as always, by the way about the comments that you mentioned in the start of the video: i see perfectionist that is mentioning few questionable comments among hundreds of other great comments, exactly like you did at the end of the video, you mentioned the 0.1% of the finish that needs correction but in reality 99.9% of the finish of the anvil is perfect.
Thank you for sharing!
I’m NOT a machinist but love your videos. Find these foolish comments sad. Keep up the exceptional work 👍👍👍
Keep up the good work Peter! My father and I are your big fans. You pull off unimaginable things with the Mazak. I am awe struck with your programming skills with the Numroto. Thanks for sharing.
Don't listen to those ignorant people. I like your videos I learn a lot. And you know a lot. I would like to know everything you know. Keep making videos. from Chelmsford Massachusetts
PLEASE! Know that many of us just want to watch you work and greatly appreciate your being willing to have us watch!
Your channel speaks for itself...
the comments...it's easy to sit on the keyboard and give explanations to the whole world...
you do and it makes a big difference...
Beautiful...one for me please🤩
