    i have never had any interest in metalworking or medieval weapons, but for whatever reason, a swordsmiths updates on his masterpiece is the premium entertainment i look forward to every week and i am heavily emotionally invested in the perfection of this piece of artistic steel

      Have you given the channel "that works" a look?
      It's pretty cool too. Heck I have a few channels I'm subbed to. One channel the guy never explains anything, name spelling eludes me right now, just hour or two long videos of dude making awesome stuff. It's like an addiction at this point

      I love yles work. I got into making knives because I watched to many forged in fire videos. Lol I don't have a press or power hammer so I cant really do damascus yet. But I intend to build a press. I built a 2x72 grinder from a treadmill. It is posted on my channel. but ignore my knives if you watch it because they was my first knives. and they are far from perfect. But I got much better now. It is a fun hobby that is for sure.

    First off, been loving watching your progression to artistry for years. Amazing, amazing work!
    Not sure if it'd be of interest to you to put that milling machine to work on a modification for your vice.
    Making sets of "soft teeth" from aluminum, brass or high density plastic/nylon might help provide another method to avoid marring while clamping near finished materials.

  • @c6quad3

  • @ph0n1k

      From a hobby machinist that's done some production work... I continuously rub me the wrong way to see people using end mills in drill chucks.
      Love Kyle and family's work... But for the love of god, stop using end mills in a drill chuck!!! 8C to ER40 collet adapters and ER40 collets are very inexpensive now days. Cheap investment to do things right.

      ​@@WHJeffBif it gets the job done for them does it really matter? I don't mean to be a prick but alot of smithing around the world is done this way. Aka with alot of ingenuity and making stuff work. Since almost nobody can afford to buy all top of the line equipment or just have everything

    • @liebetrau88
      @liebetrau88 Před 18 dny +6

      ​@stompingpeak2043 yes, it does matter, but the question is to what extent. Ultimately a collet is the correct way to mount an end mill. It provides superior rigidity compared to a chuck. Sure, a chuck can work, but it's not the correct tool for the job. You can use a drill instead of a drill press, but that doesn't mean it's the tool for the job.

    I still have a metal splinter in my right thumb that has been there for 25+ years. Just in the right place, callused over but when it gets touched just right it's a... Pain, sting, throbbing ache, electric jolt or a little reminder that Hephaistos might have it in for you or might even like you. But no matter what, however much I dig at it and the holes in my thumb to get it out, IT"S ALWAY THERE!
    Metal splinters ain't no joke.

    As a toolmaker I would avoid using an endmill in a Jacob’s chuck, I know you aren’t using very big endmills but as the chuck is attached via a taper to the machine the endmill will eventually pull the chuck off of the taper and drop into your work.
    Ask me how I know

  • @jvmiller1995
    @jvmiller1995 Před 18 dny

    when you want a really clean finish using a endmill you leave it .002-.003 over sized. Then the last few thousands you really crank the speed up anb do a cling cut. meaning normally you want the the material to go against the rotation but a climb cut it goes with the rotation. But you only do it with very few thousands or it can chatter and try to pull the part out the vise. But it leaves an awesome finish.
