II have been Machining since most of you had caca in your diapers. I'm part of The Over the Hill Gang
I became aware of youtube a few years back. I believe I can fill in some of the Machining Gray Area's.
If I can change some of the dynamic's -- I'll be a Happy Camper. I welcome any interaction.

Burnishing Tool - Doug Perfetti Method
Jim, I don't understand either. This could be a fun little contest that we all will gain something from. Maybe they will come up with some pictures soon. 👍
Doug - I know what the problem is . Try this on - 45 views is ridicules . It's not a measurement of anything . What I need is many views and comments to make a proper evaulation . I truly believe that this tool is a game changer . For Chump change one can improve their work finishes . -- Jim Reply
I agree with you Jim.
They were a novelty that's had its time on CZcams. They were popular because they were simple to make. More importantly they were material to make a video of. Now people have them they realise that they never needed one.
Marley - I appreciate your feedback .Your assement makes sense . Try this on - 45 views is ridicules . It's not a measurement of anything . What I need is many views and comments to make a proper evaulation . I truly believe that this tool is a game changer . For Chump change one can improve their work finishes . -- Jim
Don't blame you for frustration. I did send you a picture before the contest. Did you receive it? It was sent for your benefit. Not mine. I have been having email problems, so If you haven't received it, let me know and I will resend.
Big Al - I did receive your picture . I had problems with it . 1st the picture was much to large - can you sent the smallest picture possible . 2nd the camera was held at an angle could you possibly line it up better . If you can do these things - I can do a nice job on your picture . I will post with your name or just a number - whatever you prefer . -- Jim
That's really cool, Jim. Looks like a lot of gard work, too. 👍
That's really awesome! 👍
Mines the same color , and mine has a white roof !
I'm jealous ! I don't have one - I want one . Hey Guy my birthday is comming up - are you getting my Drift ? - Jim
Great idea, Jim! 👍 I want to see what everyone else is doing and the results they are getting. This might get the ball rolling.
Doug - They should reaIize that I don't get many views . The odds of winning are excellent . -- Jim
Great video, Jim! I was surprised how good 01 drill rod turned out with very little effort. I can’t wait for more feedback from other users.
Doug - It turned out excellent . I'm excited - Great Job . -- Jim
Jim I want to buy a lathe sine bar I can't seem to find it on the internet can you please help
e-mail me at jimenos@acushnettool.com
Jim, May I get a PDF copy of your cheat sheet?
Mr. MisChief Maker - The answer is Yes . First I want to double check the Chart for errors . One mistake = Junk . Allow me about a week . -- Jim
This tool definitely cuts down on the bs that it used to take to get a great finish. And it seems to improve any material surface. 👍
Love it. Such a neat and useful tool. Some of the bs I’ve done over the years to get a nice finish……won’t leave home without it.
I have bought one of these from Jim as well. All I can say if you own a lathe this needs to be in your tool box. This burnishing tool produces a beautiful finish. For fifty bucks you can't afford not to have one.
Mr. Mischief Maker - Boy ! Do I like that kind of talk . If you keep talking like that - I might put a lot of them in many Tool Boxes. You Da Man -- Jim
Hey guys, this tool is amazing. And for the price, you can't beat it. 👍👍👍👍
Right on!
Benno - If you follow our 7075 Testing results " Verbatim " Your results will be a dead clone of our Video testing results . We have done this many times with the same results . -- Jim
awesome finish!!!
Mr. Mischief - If anyone wants to send me a picture of his Burnishing Results . I'll glady post it and give him a shout out . --- Jim
Thanks for addressing the amount of force applied that what I was wanting to know the most about. I never applied that much force before I was scared I was going to cause excessive tool wear. I was only applying .003" to .005" at the most. Thank you!!
Mr. Mischief Maker - We felt just like you , we were scared , we had no choice , we were not happy , we decided to go for it .0075 on one side. We did it many Times and it repeated . -- Jim
A recipe for making aluminum shiny. Love it.
Benno - from Junk to Jewelry .
Thanks for the testing and information, pretty cool how little the part reduces in size while greatly improving finish. I’m going to sell all my emery cloth………..
Benno - Like I said - This is a "Game Changer" -- Jim
Thanks Jim, thanks Doug.
One thing not mentioned is how much pressure is applied? 0.005" beyond touch off? 0.002"?, 0.010"?
Big Al -- I just put out a couple of video's that answer your Question . --- Jim
You’re a good teacher. Thanks for the videos. Explanations help a lot. Thanks, Bob
Robert - It's great to receive encouraging feedback . I really appreciate it . Thank You --- Jim
Great video, Jim. We are slowly but surely getting answers. I've always burnished with light machine oil, but I plan on doing some dry runs along with getting some ball pressure measurements. Keep up the good work, my friend. 👍
Doug - The more we experiment the more we learn. The more we learn . The more we can share. We are breaking some new ground . -- Jim
This is what I've been waiting on Doug to perform. Great finish. Were these turned with carbide inserts and if so what insert cutting radius was used before burnishing?
Mr. Mischief Maker - Carbide or HSS Tools - It dosen't matter . A good finish is what matters . Doug used a High Speed Steel Tool for this Stainless Steel Video . A finer finish = excellent Burnishing results . -- Jim
Great video, Jim! This tool is amazing, and the finishes are unbelievable. I can’t wait to see what everyone thinks. 👍
Doug - Like I said before . This Tool is a game changer . -- Jim
Great Video I really want to purchase one of these I have a Machine Shop and could use these to enhance my finishes. Thank You for showing this.
Jaun - You are on the right track . The finishes this Tool has produced have been amazing . We are working on a Chart that will make it easy . Thank you for your comment . -- Jim
Where can I get Mine Excellent Tool Awesome Job Best Explanation Yet!!!!!!!!!!!
Jim, I think you're getting closer with a chart that puts you in the ballpark. Then, the user can go from there. When my material order shows up, I'll have a few more 1" diameter samples. Then we'll do some diameter changes and some bad turning practices to see what we can get away with. It just takes a little time and patience.
Doug - Good thinking . Let's screw up a few things to find out our limits . You're getting me excited . This Burnishing Tool is a game changer , if it's handled correctly. -- Jim
Ok we have feed rate, speeds. How much do you crank the roller in after it touches the part?
Robert - I will be able to answer that in the near future . I need more time on the Lathe . I will need to ruin a few parts before I know the limits . Thanks for your interest. -- Jim
Spindle speed in RPM equals, four times cutting speed in surface ft/min divided by part diameter in inches. Easy as Pi? Could be handy formula for some. I use it every day, can’t live without it. Works for drilling and milling too. Looks like the burnishing tool likes 80-100 sf/min? Probably higher too, can’t wait for the chart to fill out some more. It’s the change in size that is gonna be really interesting to try and get plotted/converted to a formula/constant.
Very nice work sir
Rusty - We are at the begining of the Burnishing Tool Project . We have a lot to learn . Stay Onboard and learn with us. -- Jim
I like the chart as I have never used this type of tool it gives me a baseline where to start. Thanks for putting the effort in to make it. The visuals are also helpful, maybe just a few more materials like 304 or 316 stainless and 1020 HRS.
Mike - The Visuals show you everything . Turning Feeds - Turning Rpm's - Burnishing Rpm's . A visual good look at the Burnishing Finish - etc. etc. We plan to add many more materials like you suggested . This is just the bggining . --- Jim
Pretty cool results, can’t wait for more. Keep it coming.
New instructions as if written by big industry: turn to slightly larger than finished diameter, burnish at slightly higher spindle speed to achieve desired finish and size………I know, just kidding. Can’t wait to do some trials when the tool arrives. I still like charts, even if I end up not following them.
@OgiveBC I'm following the chart as far as turning is concerned, but I found that the burnishing tool likes a little higher rpm. Let's test this tool to its maximum capability.
Benno - Like I always say - it's your Canoe - you can paddle it anyway you want to . -Jim
You're absolutely right, Jim. KISS is what we need to be thinking. You will easily get the "feel" for what is right or wrong. I plan on going all wrong soon to see what the finish looks like. 😈
Doug - I agree - At this point who knows what's right or wrong . The only way to find out is to test the limits . To Slow ? --- to Fast ? etc. etc. etc. Let's screw a few thing up to find out .you da man -- Jim
Cool looking part, I have never work with that type of material. You must have taken great care not to scratch or mark it.
Mike - John from Apple Machine made it . I know how he went about it .Yes he did take great care in multiple ways . Thanks for your comment . -- Jim
I like it! Remind me about it next time we talk. 👍
That part cam out beautiful. Work holding must have been a challenge.
Mr. Blanket - Making an Optically Clear part has many Challege's . The slightest scratch looks like a trench . Yes - work holding without scratching is another challenge . Making the cutting tools is an Art Form . etc. etc. etc. -- Jim
That is a interesting piece you made. It looks like you were a little too aggressive or your holding fixture failed.
CP - The only thing that failed was me. Like I said - always make extra pieces. -- Jim
Very helpful info. Thanks, Jim.
Mr. Blanket - Is my opinion correct ??? With the little experience I have at this point - it makes good sence to me . I'm not immune to egg on my face. I use the Babe Ruth lodgic - He said don't let the fear of striking out - stop you from swinging the Bat . -- Jim
Your tool sure is a big step nicer than the one I made.
Mr. Blanket - It's not a contest . The one you made is excellent . -- Jim
Diameter of part not so important says I. If we apply the 143 tpi screw theory to the surface finish again, being a sort of thread the depth of the valleys from the peaks would be the same on all diameters for a certain finish pass of the cutting tool prior to burnishing. For example a 0.030” depth of cut and 0.007”/rev feed. Likely the surface speed would change things slightly but theoretically not that much. I’ll have to wait and see what actual testing shows.
Benno - I'm not going to play Verbel Volley Ball with you . Like you I'll wait to see what the actual testing shows . There are to many Variables . -- Jim
We would also like to know the feed rate and force applied.
Mischief Maker -- I can't answer your question in Technicle Terms . It's a touchy feely thing . Can you tell a Baseball Player how to hold and swing a Bat etc. etc. I'll be doing a video in my shop in a day or two. I'll run my mouth and show what little I know . We both can learn something . Thanks for the comment. -- Jim
thanks for the info.
Todd - I'm trying to make common sense of this thing . There are so many varibles . It's making me crazy . It's a Great Tool - I'd like to learn how to use it , so I can demonstrate it correctly. -- Jim
@@TangentJim I think you just need to do a test run and check results, adjust as necessary, then do final runs. Just like when trying to cut to final dimensions on the lathe, I always start the cut just enough to measure, before committing to complete cut. If cut is to deep I can make corrections, then complete the cut. You can't tell people how hard to push on the brake to stop their car - they have to learn that on their own. Your burnishing tool is great. Every lathe and every metal is going to perform differently. People have to use the tool between their ears to obtain what they want. This is the greatest part of making stuff, you are not limited to just tooling, it challenges your creativity. Have fun and keep learning.
Todd - You just explained how to use the Burnishing Tool . Thanks for the education . -- Jim
I love this video! So much information. Go Jim!
Doug - I'm not just another Pretty Face -- Jim
Doug, I would like for you to burnish a piece of 304 stainless.
@@onemischiefmaker7032 I plan on doing 303 and 304 stainless soon. Keep watching. 👍
Jim, You are selling one of the best burnishing tools I have ever seen. At a price point that is unheard of in these times. I have absolutely no regrets with my purchase. And I bet once the word gets out about your product your sales will go through the roof.
Mischief Maker -- Your encouraging commet excites me. Burnishing outside Diameters on a Lathe is not common practice at any level . In my long Machining career I have never seen a Burnishing Tool in anyones Tool Box . Burnishing outside diameters on a Lathe can solve a multitude of problems . Obviously - I want to put a Lathe Burnishing Tool in everybody's Tool Box . I think an affordable Burnishing Tool is a game changer. Again - I thank you for your encouraging comment . - Jim
Very nice video sir. Thanks
Rusty - Thank you for watching and your positive comment . -- Jim
