Making a VERSATILE Mini Pallet || INHERITANCE MACHINING
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 июн 2024
- Hello everyone and welcome back to my manual machine shop! In this video I’ll be engineering and machining a mini pallet system for my vertical milling machine. This is sometimes also referred to as a universal fixture plate and is essentially a slab of metal with a whole bunch of holes in it. The holes are either reamed for a clearance fit with hardened and ground locating pins. Or threaded for use with various clamping elements. For my build I’ll be making a set of Mitee Bite style eccentric edge clamps made from brass as well as some slotted positioning bars (well… nevermind, you’ll see). Other than the main plate of the pallet, I’ll also make a clamping plate for mounting in the vise, as well as a pivoting bar that will allow me to set the fixture at an angle.The large parts are made from either 2124 or 6061 aluminum and with the large plates I get the chance to really test out my massive fly cutter which is always a joy.

Again, thank you ALL so much for the support, kind words, and just generally following along with the builds and the channel. This community has been not only welcoming and encouraging, but also extremely knowledgeable. I've learned so much already and it's honestly a pleasure to be here!
Tune in again on December 23rd for an extra special build. This one is a throwback to a past life, and has been in the works for months. So I can't wait to dive in... AGAIN! ;) See you then!
I will watch and REwatch these videos over and over. Super high quality. Love the journey
i enjoy your video's very much...(enough that I even watch the adverts to make sure you get paid)
Thanks for always making my day with relaxing videos and interesting techniques!
It's a pleasure to have your videos to watch, you've great style. Plus, this is the community that keeps on giving. And you already are giving. Someone's for sure already following your journey, thinking: "one day, when i'm old enough...". ;)
No sir
Thank to you ❤️
As a mechanical engineer that uses inventor every day, I find your hand drafting very therapeutic to watch.
Agreed, makes me feel so inferior using CAD 😂
Same, I had to watch it again to even hear what he said, I was so focused on the drawing.
Same
I spend all day every day on CAD. I also spent 30 years drawing artwork. I don't miss it, but it is nice to watch.
@@ajosepi1976 it's ultra therapeutic to watch someone else do the work XD
Well done, its been amazing watch this channel grow. On to a Million i say
That truly means a lot, Colin! Thank you. I'm here for the ride!
I just added mine to help reach a million!
I think I’m starting to get an idea of what Colin watches in his free time
That adding of a slight chamfer to the play button is just 👌
Just a tip from a fellow machinist, those Kurt vises usually have the ability to mount the movable jaw to the rear of the slide, giving you 5-ish more inches of travel.
I would be concerned that it wouldn't give a true flatness
Thanks! I didn't even think of that... I'd imagine jaw lift is more of an issue though?
@@InheritanceMachining Maybe its just time to make a new vise?
Depending on which vice you have, you can also move the fixed jaw to the outside and thus have a range up to the lenth of the vice.
I was thinking the same thing. Both jaws (movable and fixed) can be mounted on the back side if needed.
In regards to jaw lift, I’ve never had an issue there, but I wasn’t doing super precision work either. Kurt vises (and the good clones) are designed to pull the moveable jaw down with tightening and don’t have as much issue there as the previous generations of machinist’s vises.
Congratulations to a well deserved wall plaque. There are many wonderful metalworking, machine tool, mechanic sites on RUclips. Yours is truly unique because you share with us your learning process at a very high level. Your voice-over discussions are of very great value to many people. You are humble without being self-deprecating, you have a delightful sense of humour and you are an uncompromising artisan craftsman. Thanks for all of your efforts. We appreciate them.
what other channels can you recommend?
Bruce, you have a way with words. Thank you so much for the support as always. The pleasure is mine!
Nicely said and well received. I have to say I look forward to these videos every week, just wish it was in metric !

Thanks a lot for the effort!
9:05 there is nothing frivolous about perfectly matched chamfers. They are always so satisfying to see.
It's what separates us from the animals. (Or so I've heard elsewhere on YT. )
@@randyshoquist7726 hello, fellow Quinn fan. ;)
(And InheritanceMachining fan too, obviously! Because indeed, great stuff here.)
I'm a woodworker and I feel the same about mitres - the difference between a good set and a bad set shows the mettle of the person that did them and the care they have in thier work.
@@rafezetter8003 absolutely!
Each video I watch leaves me with " I know your Grandfather would be so proud " He would be proud of the care you have taken to get and keep these machines in proper working order. He would be proud of the saved materials being used to make tooling. Most of all I think he is proud of you sharing your knowledge with the next generation.
I am a machinist by hobby and do job shop stuff as a side gig. You have found the correct balance in content, you neither over or under describe. Meaning you don't bore the ones who have the know how but don't lose the ones who are learning. I look forward to the content of this channel more than any other.
That is very kind of you to say. Thank you so much, Curtis!
As a mechanical engineer educated at a technical university, I wish I had more of this hands-on experience...
Me too totally agree
You definitely deserve all the subs, the production value is off the charts, whenever a new inheritance machine a video drops it’s a good day.
I really appreciate that. Thanks, Mike!
for the slotted fixturing options, i'd recommend looking into how fireball tool dealt with possible slippage of that (downward clamp vs sideways force isnt perfect) using a second non-slotted serrated piece to engage with serrations under the slotted part. great work on the project, always excited to see one of your vids in the sub box!
EDIT: also, the clickspring video has been a patron exclusive for years, hes just generous enough to give it to us mortals now
Thanks! I think I remember seeing that feature of Fireball's at some point. Good idea!
Will second this, Fireball has some great ideas for fixturing.
ever since starting to watch this channel the following phrase runs through my head every time i open Fusion360 "....because chamfers are sexy"
That's exactly right
Congrats on the 100K! I'll be sharing this channel with my machining instructors, I'm certain they'll be impressed with your content as well!
Thank you so much!
The sub count is now 150k! Phenomenal rate of growth.
You deserve the gold button. You came out of the gate swinging for the fences and you smashed a walk of grand slam in game 7. Here's to many more years of sharing your Inheritance
It is always a pleasure to see your paper drawings and the results, great work.
Thanks!
Some channels on RUclips, have millions of subscribers, and deserve it half as much as yours. Your attention to detail, dry humor, unruffled narration and clear talent, and skill with your craft are what keep me coming back, despite as I've said, not really ever doing metalwork myself. Congratulations on 100k, here's to hoping it just keeps climbing!
Also, 2024 aluminum, sure does clean up nicely! Even with the minor issues and variances, those parts look sharp and beautifully done! We usually use alclad when we use 2024, because the cladding corroded quickly, and protects the heat treated aluminum underneath, from corrosion, because it's not open to the environment. It's nice to see the potential for beauty buried under an oxidized surface from time to time 🙂
I really appreciate that, man! That was my first time working with that grade and I was impressed as well!
Congratulations! I stumbled upon your channel a few months ago and I have been mesmerized by it ever since. I can't wait to see all the videos to come!
As an engineering student I love watching your videos and learning so much. It has inspired me to get into the machine shop more at school, and even given me some ideas for projects of my own. As a more digital engineer, it intrigues me to watch you do all these things in an analog fashion, from your drafting to your machining.
Thanks Brandon and thanks for the kind words. Glad to hear you're taking advantage of that shop access while you have it!
It really is amazing how fast this channel has blown up. But it's down to how high quality and professional it is at it's relatively young age
Thank you 🙏
i have been addicted to this channel. its been like a week straight watching videos whenever i can to get caught up. Love the dedication here and your skills are commendable.
"A lathe is basically just a mill that tipped over." I don't remember which youtube machinist said something similar (I think it was Quinn from Blondihacks, but not sure), but they said basically the opposite of that. That a mill is just a lathe that tipped over. They said something along the lines of "every operation you can do in a machine shop can be done on a lathe, just not as efficiently. The ability to do operations on a mill is just a refinement of efficiency, sometimes by a little, sometimes a lot."
CONGRATS ON 100K. The snowball has began. Only found the channel because of another youtubers recommendation and over the last 2 weeks have binged the lot. I love the technical drawings, was my favourite part of metal work at school in the early 90's before computers where mainstream.
Thanks! The drafting is a bit time consuming but it's a little less soul sucking than staring at a screen more than I already do. Also, do you remember what channel you heard about mine from? I'd like to thank them
Thank you for sharing the journey! Your videos act as evidence that hard work and consistent effort are required to make the most of any inheritance. You've done your family proud.
That comment really means a lot. Thank you so much Helena
I hope youtube will become a more regular platform for you. I really enjoy these videos and will love to see them more often.
Thanks. If I could make these more often than every 2 weeks I definitely would. They take a lot!
Wow, great PLAY BUTTON!!! Well deserved 🎊 🎉.
Thank you 🙏
Every time I watch one of your videos I am left wondering when the next one will come out. Great work, both the machining and the clean, simple video editing. I have to say this is my #1 favorite channel. Thank you for bringing it to life.
I really appreciate that! Thank you! And FYI its every other Friday. You can count on it!
Honestly, we have to thank you for the passion you put into those videos, not the other way around.
You skyrocketed to my favourite machining channel, even surpassing juggernauts like ToT and Clickspring.
Thank you for regularly making my day!
That's truly and honor as those are 2 of MY favorites. Thank you so much!
I wish I had half the skills and talents you have. I went to college for machine tool and die back in the day, however they didn’t teach very much, mostly how to read instruments, metallurgical characters, READING prints, and just overall basics. I went for two years, afterwords landed a job in a tool room with some of the most advanced shockingly talented, no more like gifted individuals who quickly reminded me that I knew absolutely nothing. I got so discouraged I took another position out on the production floor. That decision still haunts me to this day. I missed such an amazing opportunity if I only could have swallowed my pride and listened to those gifted men. They were willing to educate me, in fact I think they took too much enjoyment from it at times. But my young mind and ego simply couldn’t comprehend or appreciate being the most ignorant person in the room on a daily basis.
Now much,much older I can see it so clearly. Those men were at the very top of their game, and they were testing me. And I failed.
But watching you and seeing the level of detail, the methodological approach to every step, the skills and tactics applied. Brings me back to that tool room but this time it’s different, now I know exactly what I need to do.
And that is shut up and listen,watch, and appreciate the gifts you are bestowing upon us.
I’ve worked along side of fellas such as your grandfather, and I can see he has ignited that passion in you and it shows in you content.
You guys are amazing. I truly appreciate your content.
I hope that it inspires many more younger viewers to embark on a journey into machine manufacturing in some form or another.
😁🍻
I smile every time you say "that could be better" .... and then you do better.
F man, your drafting is so satisfying. Reminds me of architecture school
haha Thanks!
For only being around for such a short period of time its astounding how many subscribers you already have! I am privilege to have been here since you only had a few thousand and now at 149K!!!
I will say it time and time again that you are an inspiration. If anything you give everyone who sees your work an understanding of what it takes to achieve precision, including me. And for that I couldn't be more grateful, so from the bottom of my heart..... Thank you
It's always a pleasure to see your comment, Charl. Thank you so much for your nice words and for following along all this time. I can't tell you how much that means!
Congratulations, I'm sure your Grandfather would be proud. That plate looks beautiful.
Like ToT says, when it comes to chamfers, it pays not to cut corners.
😂 Thank you very much!
13:16 "What is a Mathe?" I have some old British model making books. There were model makers that did ALL of their machining on a lathe as they didn't have a mill in their small shops. Some of the fixtures they came up with to do what would be a snap in a mill were things to behold. Adversity is the mother of invention!
Been with ya from the 1st video, and really happy with where you are and where you are going to journey forward and the side projects you will meet along the way! Thanks to your wife too for shooting all this footage. Everything that is clear about your channel - mechanical engineering basics, research, narration, your manual drafting, workshop organization, machine setups and cleanliness, openness to take inputs from all the commentators, videography, the way you carry forward your legacy - everything is noticed. While we may not even have seen a proper first commercial product, Im am sure they'll turn out amazing with all the tools you make to make more tools! Keep it up, all the best and we are all joyful for having inherited your machining channel and we also know your grandpa is so proud of his legacy! Congratulations for the Silver. Thanks again! 👍
Thank you so much! We are doing our best to make something meaningful here and really appreciate you noticing all the effort!
A good tip for fitting oversize pieces in your vise is unscrew the jaws from the inside surface and mount them to the outer surface. I think with your particular vise you could have fit the aluminum fixture plate stock, and they are made for this so your workmanship would not have suffered
With all the discussion around flatness and cylindricity, I would love to hear this man talk about GD&T and machining to them
I've loved your channel for a while. It's heart-warming that you're continuing your Grandfather's legacy.
Thank you 😊
This is precision at its finest. Congrats on the milestone!
Thank you! And thanks for the poster!
@@InheritanceMachining, you're welcome! And oh cool. Glad to hear it got there 👍
Love this channel, been a follower for about a year now, also HI to all the Engineers out there, i`m not an Engineer myself sadly but my Father was so i inherited some of his love for precision and quality, i`m a 53 year old Kitchen Installer from the UK with almost 40 years experience who takes great pride in the quality and accuracy of my jobs, i`m also heavily into ancient engineering techniques, specifically how the so called Dynastic Egyptians cut and polished igneous stone like Granite and Diorite which has a Mohs scale hardness of 6 - 8, there are a good few Engineers out there now who believe, as i do, that these highly accurate monuments and statues were cut on machines similar to lathes and mills, the precision on some of these artefacts is to within 100th of a millimeter yet were are told by the mainstream archaeological community that they were done using copper tools, chisels and dolorite pounders BY HAND, anyone who knows Quartz, as i do as we use it for countertops, knows it can not be cut or shaped using copper or bronze tools to this precision, also under a microscope these objects don`t show impact marks which you would associate with chiselling and hammering, they are perfectly smooth, perfectly square and they even pass the light test with an engineers light test you can`t get that accuracy by hand, many of these artefacts show evidence of tube drills cut at a rate that we can`t replicate even with today`s highly advanced CNC machines, there`s evidence that huge 1200 tonne blocks and single columns were cut using a huge overhead circular saw and Live Centre holes in the bases of 200 - 300 tonne single piece granite pillars, there is an English Aerospace Engineer who moved to the States called Christopher Dunn, his qualifications are second to none in the field of Engineering, he`s travelled to Egypt and other locations around the globe and conducted tests on many of these artefacts and he`s concluded they had to have been cut and created using ancient engineering machines, something we are told never existed in pre history yet the evidence discounts that, there is a channel on RUclips called UnchartedX presented by an aussie guy called Ben, his channel is dedicated to exposing these incredible highly accurate artefacts and calls for academia to acknowledge that there was once a long lost forgotten ancient highly advanced civilisation that existed before 12.500 years ago and was erased from human history by what`s known as The Younger Dryas Impact, a theory that has since been proven correct and it`s been peer reviewed, my big ask in all this to all you Engineers out there is to have a look at Chris Dunns work and Ben`s over at UnchartedX, see the evidence for yourselves when you get time and if at all possible lend your expertise and engineering knowledge to their work, the more skilled engineers who get on board the quicker science and archaeology will take it seriously, the theory is that in pre history there was a highly advanced global civilisation that had the knowledge and technical ability to build these ancient monuments and that the Dynastic Egyptians only uncovered, inherited and repurposed these sites thousands of years later once Earth`s climate settled down and human population and society was rebuilt, a big ask i know but i know these guys would appreciate your time and skilled knowledge to either agree with their hypothesis or point out errors in their theories, thanks for reading all this, i appreciate it cheers. Glen, West Midlands UK.
The RUclips plaque box is pretty distinctive, which had me thinking, "What's he going to do with that?" Then, when you started blue-taping off the play triangle, I was like, "Is he gonna---??" Realizing that yes, you were going to chamfer the triangle was very much a moment for a joyous shout. Congrats, Brandon, you glorious SOB. 😁
😂 😆 Thanks, man!
One of my quickly blossoming skills is finding alternative things to do while waiting for ordered parts to arrive... When your capacitor blew and you moved to the Lathe... Yeah I felt that. Such a real DIY shop experience.
Congratulations on reaching 100k!
Beautiful design for the fixture plate, I'm definitely going to have to make a vise mount sub-plate for mine, and the large cylinder for angle mounting is very clever. Quicker than swapping to my tilting vise.
I did design a wallet that I will get around to machining at some point, but I will probably 3D print a few prototypes first to perfect the design.
Thanks Keith! I don't know what kind of vise you have but a couple people mentioned the ability to flip the jaws on Kurt vises like mine. Could save you from having to make the sub plate. I'd love to see your wallet when you finish it up!
lets goooo!
These videos are like therapy. Can't wait for the next vid.
Wow - I'm impressed. That fixture plate is beautiful.
Oi man are you going to participate in the makers Christmas. I know your fairly new to RUclips but if you don’t know what this is maybe ask This Old Tony, tbh I really don’t know how the makers Christmas thing works but I feel like you would be a good fit. Never hurts to ask, Damm this is long, anyways love the content!!!
Also congrats on 100k!!!!
Thanks! Yeah I've seen ToT and others participate in years past but wasn't sure how to get involved. Might be too late this year
Thank you. Your videos are an amazing gift.
I was just saying at work today that i would like to make a plate like this, then i log into youtube and here pops this video, exactly the thing i want lol.
It’s a pleasure to watch what you bring, we should be thanking you.
Oh man, I LOVE the pivot system!
I don't know if anyone said anything yet but having a mirror on a stick is a life saver when sweeping in the head. Much less walking back and fourth. Awesome videos!
Ironically I have one 😂 Thanks!
OMG that is SO WHOLESOME and touching. I'm in tears, what a reveal, CONGRATS!!!!!
I can’t believe how this great channel came out of nowhere. It’s gone from 0 to 155,000 subscribers in just a few months, and deserves every one of them and more.
Thank you 🙏
I'm drooling over your mill! I really like the fixture pallet. I'd like to make one myself. Thank you for all the info.
It's very refreshing to see a well made machining video.
You are very welcome! You have included the very important design step which I enjoy a lot. Thanks, Greg.
So happy to have found and joined your site, I started off as a Tool and Die apprentice, then Tool and Diemaker in the UK at British Leyland, then moved to the US and several jobs later my Pinnacle was to become an InstrumentMaker for a scientific institute, through all this I was strictly a manual machinist and it sadly lacking now with CNC everywhere. Your skills, drawing brilliant, machining brilliant!!!!
Congrats...thank you for taking us on your journey.
It's been my pleasure. Thanks for following along!
I had mechanical drafting in the 60's during high school.... Very Cool!!!
The little note, tribute to your subscribers, and your grandfather...earned a sub from me. Amazing work!
Thank you 😁 Welcome!
Thank you for sharing. This is so therapeutic 😊
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Such a pleasure to watch & learn...
I laughed out loud when you chamfered the play button! Excellent
Merci à toi Brandon !! & Congratulations :)
Woooo well deserved silver RUclips plaque ! Always good to share your grandfather shop.
Thank you!
Got into this trade for the opportunity and money. But truly fell in love with it. Work like yours and videos like yours helped me fall in love with machining. Years back I would laugh at myself for getting excited about blocks of steel with holes in it! Great work as always.
Haha glad I'm not the only one 😉 I appreciate it though! Thanks!
I know it’s a pointless comment but I love this channel.
I don’t care what your video’s are about, I open it knowing I’m going to love it.
Inspirational, I want to machine stuff 😃
That's not pointless at all. I appreciate it very much!
Beautiful work.
Your attention to detail is infectious. Thank you for explaining things and making it known that everybody makes mistakes. Thanks again for providing us with some outstanding content. Now I gotta get out in my shop and make something.
Some serious old school skill here. I like how you print all your builds. Very professional. It shows in your finished work.
Thank YOU Brandon for all your hard work and craftsmanship!
Thanks!
This is the type of project that is so interesting to me. But what is more impressive is your ability to work well outside the box.
I usually try to break out of my comfort zone by a little with each project. Thanks as always, Clyde!
Who doesn't love a good chamfer? Congrats on the silver play button!
😁 Thanks!
Brilliant accurate work.
Regards.
Steve.
@7:14, Watching that thing emerge from the left side of the cutter as a mirror was possibly the most satisfying thing I am going to see all day
Edit to add: Nope. @16:34. *That* is the most satisfying thing I will see today.
What you present here is the whole package... I started to rewatch from the begining. Thanks for sharing with us.
I really appreciate that! Thank you
That thing is a work of art. Thanks for the video.
My pleasure. Thank you!
As usual, great video and project.
Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure! Thanks, Joe!
So many concepts I have learned in undergrad have been brought up in this video. Such as V = omega across r, Young's modulus (modulus of elasticity), three phase, the list goes on. The 30 year old cap was bound to fail sooner than later. Congrats on the play button!
😁 Thanks, man!
Beautiful work!
As one that has been watching from pretty early on, let me say thank you for the more realistic view of projects, few steps forward, one back. I might suggest that you start planning you project for your million sub plaque now…it won’t be long.
Thank you, Colin 🙏
Beautiful finish after the fly cutting.
Wonderful details and precision indeed 🍺👍
Three words for you, Brandon. "Rotary. Phase. Converter." You can get or build one that will supply 3 phase power to everything in your shop, though you don't really need it for more than one machine at a time. Good luck, buddy. Thanks for the awesome videos.
Thanks! I considered it but decided to go the cheap and quick option. I've had good luck with the one I installed on my lathe. Plus variable RPM will be nice at some point
Congratulations!!!
The finish on that plate is incredible!
I think we ALL could watch that finished to surface of the mounting plate all day :D haha
Congratulations are in order for the milestone achievement. Although there was no doubt you would hit it with the wonderful story telling and work process. I personally started following you when I started a cnc/manufacturing program at a local college. Now shy of a year later I’m working in inspection, and with that have a huge appreciation for the quality of the work you do
Love this stuff. Keep doing this please
Beautiful work, thanks for the videos!
Thanks! My pleasure!
These are just the most calming videos to watch. Thank you for posting
Thank you! My pleasure
It's so cool watching your channel because I actually worked in a shop just like yours with my grandfather in 2019 (I'm only 21), and was a great experience in the most happy year of my life so far, used all the tools you use in your videos and can relate to a lot of problems you go through with side projects hahah
Congratulations on the YT milestone… many…. Many more to come. Thank you for sharing your love for machining.
Thank you!
Thank you. I find your videos therapeutic,as I do clickspring’s.
My pleasure. Thank YOU
Keep checking if there's a new video and frankly am blown away when there is. I have discovered machining later in life (uh like 55) but still. Haven't quite progressed to your standards but certainly relate to side projects and the like and have learnt so much already. Thanks.
It's never to late to get into this 😁 Thanks for following along!
Well done!
I'm not a machinist, and rarely ever work with metal (I prefer dead tree format), but I'm still mesmerised with the content. Who doesn't love a good chamfer.
Those mini pallets are super useful, I built a couple of them a while back and I used them a lot more than I would have thought.
That's encouraging to hear. I don't have anything in particular in mind at the moment but now I have it when I do
LOOKS GREAT, AND SEE YOU WHEN, GREAT VIDEO...
That round bar to adjust the plate angle was mind blowingly awesome lol. I'm still somewhat new to machining been teaching myself for a few years from a home shop and just recently started teaching myself cnc machining by taking over the small shop at work. Unfortunately I'm the only one in the entire place that knows anything about machining. But I am learning alot from your videos as well as others, thanks for the content!
Love the surprise ending. Congrats on your accomplishment and thank you for sharing your passion with us
Thanks, Joey! My pleasure
