I wasn't sure if my vise making tutorial was easy to follow or not. But now that I see you were able to follow it, I guess it should work for anyone! haha Thanks for the shout out Aaron
Thanks Kevin. I was lucky enough to see you present the concept back in 2019 at the Fusion360 academy in Portland Oregon. Excellent idea mate. Thanks for watching 👍🍻
G'day mate. Thanks for watching and for the positive feedback. You're not bloody wrong with that comment. TBH, I got sick and tired of beating the advanced manufacturing drum in the high school system. The majority of clowns that run the schools are just promoted teachers and most have zero "real life experience". So your efforts are wasted on educating idiots (staff not students). I have left the secondary system and now work for a TAFE institute here in Melbourne. They have invested heavily in advanced manufacturing and understand its importance moving forward. Fingers crossed I can deliver the goods. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Aaron.
G'day Matty. Thanks for watching mate. Imagine how long these plates would take to machine manually. Especially with those large holes that have to be bored. That was video shows the full cycle time of each plate. The footage wasn't sped up and shown actual speed. Hopefully you'll the get the parts in the mail this week mate. Cheers, Aaron.
Hi Aaron, interesting collaboration between you and Matty. Nice the see the Haas running although I did cringe when drilling the holes....lol. Bring us more CNC based videos please. Cheers Kevin
Thanks for following along Kevin. The CNC makes short work of it doesn't it. Yeah that FKN drill caught me out, she was running a tad fast and I missed it in the program (swapping between aluminium and steel CAM cycles). Oh well, the parts still came out good. Thanks for watching Kevin. Cheers, Aaron.,
Nice work Aaron 👍 It seems to look so easy when you watch it on video. Wouldn't it be great IF it was this fast in real life. With the magic of RUclips everything looks so easy 😁👌
@@swanvalleymachineshop Hi Max. Great to hear/read from you 👍 Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to do much on My Mazak Mission since the last video I posted. Almost coming up to an anniversary soon 🤔 Almost 1 Year now 😁 Hopefully I can get some time eventually to start posting a few more videos again ??? I do stop by occasionally and watch your progress. Great to see things are going well with your shop. Talk to you soon. Peter 🙂👍
Hi Frank. Thanks for watching mate I appreciate the support. Yes, the Haas MM2 is a very capable machine. It made short work of those steel plates too. Cheers, Aaron.
Hi Paul. Great to hear that you're learning F360. It's just like any other parametric CAD system. It all starts with a sketch, then a feature is applied and then you can modify the feature. It will all make sense when you start. Just remember, that it's not like we were taught at high school. To get a 2D drawing in CAD, you draw the 3D solid model first. Best of luck Paul. Proud of you mate for taking the leap. Cheers, Aaron.
Hey buddy. Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, I made 2 of these plates in quick succession. The second part makes an appearance at 7:04 in the video. No vice stop was used, as I used a vernier caliper to align the plates from the fixed jaw left hand side. Hope that makes sense. Cheers, Aaron.
G'day Chris. No mate that was a small piece of metal left in the bottom of the hole. As the end mill broke through it grabbed that small piece of left over metal and spat it out the side. All fun and games at the fair mate LOL. Cheers, Aaron.
Sweet stuff there buddy. :) Better to get the machines at work dirty since you can't make the students come to your place to clean up......smart thinking! :) lol
G'day Mike, you read me like a book LOL. Better still at work at least I've got a wash down gun to clean everything. Thanks for watching Mike. Cheers, Aaron.
I have a X7 but parts like that I cut on my 1kW fiber laser. Takes under a minutes in 6mm steel. Would it not be cheaper to find someone to laser cut them?
Hi Michael, yes you could use laser, plasma or water jet cut plates. However, the plans call for a H7 tolerance, as bushes need to be pressed fitted into those large holes. Additionally, you get better surface finish with machined parts and no draft angle to worry about later. Thanks for watching. Aaron.

Bloody good presentation Mate! We need this integrated into the school curriculum. The future of a nation depends on it's manufacturing capabilities.

Gday Aaron, thanks for making these parts, the cnc is much more quicker the doing it manually, im looking forward to this build, cheers

G'day Peter, yes the magic of television LOL. It was actually a fun and easy part to make. No fixturing required. Cheers, Aaron.
Hey Peter , did you get the Mazac finished ?

@@weldmachine Yes , it's no short road when machines are pulled down , esp with limited time !
Thanks Aaron for the video Love to get one These days It's on my wish list

Hello Aaron,
Interesting video... I am off on a three day Fusion 360 training course next week... Nice to see you helping Matty out.
Take care.

Aaron that was one clean machine, only 1pc,. no edge stop

Great Mate.
Was that a part of endmill breaking off on R/h hole or just remains of metal from circular boring hole....Hope that makes sense.

Cool project for the students to build. Send me the plans so I can have a crack at one. 🙂
G’day Tom. Thanks for watching mate. Sure no worries I’ll send you the PDF winch plans soon mate. Would be good to see you build one. Cheers 🍻
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering Thanks buddy.
👍👍👍
