You're giving me a run for my money with all that broken tooling. Challenge accepted.
@erikkayV
@1:20 squares and triangles, it is the subtlety and ridiculousness of the humor that keeps me coming beck.
@Arkios64
These videos just keep on getting better and better, with now casually strewn in life advice kept just vague enough that it can apply to anything but still feel like they apply to me specifically.
@Narwaro
When you step up from hobby CNC to industrial mills with infinite stiffness its becomes a lot scarier. You use bigger endmills/facemills that dont break as easy but nothing else also breaks easy, so when something goes wrong, your part just goes flying at almost supersonic speeds and almost gives you a heart attack
@tim0thyd951
That little "why?" In the background after the second end mill broke SENT me🤣
@andli461
Brilliant as always! A good practice in designing inside radii is to dimension them 0,5 mm “to big”. R4,5 in your case. Then the cutter will never have to come to a full stop in 90 deg corners or snap when experience a rapid increase in tool load. Use the ability of the machine, then you’re not stuck to a specific size end mill. At least in some cases. Great content. Can’t wait for the next episode.
@camkast8052
Dude you deserve a lot more credit for what you've done. You made your own home-made milling machine, which is absolutely insane. I've never heard of anyone even thinking about doing something like that. Plus, the effort that goes into these vids in terms of the actual creation of things is super impressive. I really like engineering and creating things, so this hits super well! Keep up the good stuff dude, and have an amazing day!

The jazz is just killer. Really adds a unique spin to this channel that I love.
@MachiningandMicrowaves
Gotta love that steady rest for triangular stock. Pity I was drinking a mug of coffee while I was watching. Guess my keyboard will dry out some day.
@MattOckendon
Comedy gold in here. TOT watch out, the Aussies are coming!
@itarry4
Gotta get some algorithm on this stuff so here's the comment and the likes already done. Deserves the views.
@richdecibels
dude your sense of humour tickles me more than any other youtuber. and your speech about starting a project just beyond your comfort zone is so right on. please keep going!
@henryfleischer404
"Get yourself a project just outside your comfort zone" That's a great idea. It's a big part of how I've been learning programming and game development. But, that's rapidly becoming more of a job than a hobby. And as my dad said, once your hobby becomes a job, you need a new hobby. I've been thinking about taking up sewing. I'm thinking of starting with fixing buttons, than pockets, then making doll clothes.
@streambonker
I adore your content, I despise the fact that you played "White Christmas" 5 minutes in when we're still only in the start of November.
@cucumbersonfire
"because I'm lazy and hate tool changes" - i think you mean "because i haven't built my auto tool changer yet"
@jumpingxships
A small tip I learned a while ago for double-tape and superglue fixturing: the endmills depth of cut increases the cutting forces acting on the material. It will take more time, but you can get away with shallow, yet wider, depth of cuts. It may take some experimentation but hopefully my experience translates to yours as well. Keep it up! I'm a CNC Machinist and I enjoy your videosx it's great to see someone coming in at grass roots level and forging their own path. I've said it countless times to my colleagues, people without formal training find interesting and unorthodox methods because they don't know the "rules".
@gerikbensing
The way you clamp stuff is still better than me. Some of the contraptions I come up with using C-clamps and bits of steel cutoffs I put into my scrap bin are horrifying.
@BreakingBarriers2DIY
Often harder for me, as I’m not familiar with the machining tools, it takes me longer to get the dry humour…but when I do…it’s always worth it. Crying laughing usually. Thanks for this awesome delivery of a world that I enjoy vicariously.
@KingZeusCLE
Quick tip.. when you are running a new program (or even a repeat old job that came back), always run on OP STOP (Optional Stop), watch every tool come down and check it to your distance to go (or current location), understand what the CAM program is doing so you know what to expect, and watch the first 30-60 seconds of a tool with one hand on the e-stop. This has saved me from countless scrap parts. It's take a little bit longer, but I've probably saved over $50k in scrap parts and scrap tools over the past 8 years simply because I missed something in the set up or program or one of the operators in setup training didn't know any better. It's so easy to miss a number or move a decimal plate or have the wrong button checked in CAM. Back plot / Graph along with OP Stop are crucial. My advice to the new guys are watch every tool come down every time for the first part (new or old). This will catch a tool offset that wasn't set, an incorrect coordinate system, and more. Well done on the video! So happy to see the $270 spindle is still rolling! You don't have any idea how tempted I am (or maybe you do and that's why you ended up with one). The next step up starts getting into the all in one powered units around $1k (Lusitun seems to actually be decent) or around $800 for the unpowered setups, but with everything except the spindle drive motor or servo. We need a follow up!
