Love the raw machining, no music, and with talking held off till the end. Nice change of pace👏
Dude i love it
Ill take the music. I hear enough machining everyday. 😂
@@Under-KaozI literally will wear ear plugs just to have some peace lol
Agreed
Yes cool video! Awesome vibes
Pure maching, no music, no commentary no nothing, love it!
And no slo-mo! Hopefully that fad has gone away.
What do you mean no music. That sound IS music!
ASMR for men
@@christian455 fuck yea....
smh still extremely entertaining to watch
That art-deco pineapple looks cool as hell.
I wonder who lives in it.
@@christianherrera4729 Well, I hope for the boat owner that it isn't SpongeBob.
@@christianherrera4729 I can't hear you. 🍍
@@SuperLuminalMan AYE AYE CAPTAAAIN
That will not be there on the final product
Not gonna lie, I'm genuinely impressed with the depth of cut that tool can withstand and how much heat it must be holding up to.
Why no coolant?
@@byronmartin6459makes for a shit video 😅
@@byronmartin6459People would complain about not being able to see the part
@@byronmartin6459 I wondered that. Must be wrecking the tool.
no lube or oil?
Sitting in my car on lunch break... watching a video about what I do once I go back inside... there's something wrong with me. Loved this video though.
I come home from work and watch truck driving, after having driven one for 10-12 hours... we are perfectly normal... 😏
There are days I'm doing over 8 hour days just figuring out how to machine an assembly one of our customers asked us to make, then come home and look forward to their machining vids. Then again I think of those days as a bonus since it's self-training be it Fusion 360 or learning how I can manipulate our machines/tools to do more, and I can take ideas I've learnt here and try them out for myself.
What I'm trying to say is you can never get too much machining as long as you enjoy the process of machining.
As a CNC programmer, I can say I think we all have a screw or two loose. It's not a bad thing, but we're our own breed.
There's nothing at all wrong with you. You're just in the right place.
that just means you like what you do!
I'm a machinist (and not a yacht owner), but that thing is so display-worthy as a roughed part.
While it might be an odd request, I'd probably have a finished part installed in the engine room and a roughed part installed in the living room as an art piece.
Maybe with the functional internals, critical tolerances, and mating surfaces made to spec so it could be used as a functional part in a pinch 😅
But that is cool as hell even if it's "just a valve".
I'm looking forward to seeing the finished part.
This is the sort of flex that would be expected from a yacht owner.
Yeah, but they wanted the $100,000 version, not the $half million piece of art!
Ah. It's a roughed part. That makes sense. I was confused about the chatter marks.
At the roughing phase there may be no critical tolerances machined as it is likely going to be heat treated prior to finishing.
i for sure wouldnt wanna be responsible for making sure that roughed part is deburred before its installed as a art piece in the living room with a change of being touched by curious people who always seem to wanna touch shiny stuff.
That was awesome...thanks for not ruining it with some ridiculous techno soundtrack like so many people do on YT.
Why can’t we leave it like it is? I know some areas have to be finished, but as it stands….ITS A WORK OF ART!
Make yr own. Its just a lump of metal, half of which can be cashed it immediately as scrap. Its a win!
I would love to make art like this.
Those cuts are insane, you guys know your specs. No coolant, perfect speed and rotation for the chip to absorb all that heat.
I was surprised to see no coolant... I thought, maybe this is some high end equipment that has coolant flowing through the giant end mill?
But I guess from your comment that thing is just beefy enough to shred steel without the mess...?
Maybe they are running air instead of coolant.
Heller, German Engineering..
they do stuff for filming so no coolant . would be better machining with coolant , always.
if i had a choice i'd leave the outer surface like that, looks cool as hell, as long as you don't brush up against it, razor edge nightmare.
Lots of deburring
I'm not sure what the purpose of all those facets is, but in an environment with salt water it makes no sense to have those facets as best I can tell. This approach makes for a substantial increase in surface area that salt water can attack and we know this is a form of steel given the chips sticking to the magnets so that will promote rust. It is an interesting look for sure, but sometimes going with a drab look that reduces surface area is the better option. Of course, a huge yacht is mostly a means of showing off your wealth so having something like this makes sense from an aesthetic standpoint even if it makes no sense from a function and maintainability standpoint!
@@Raptorman0909 If you have salt water in your engine room you have bigger problems to focus on.
@@slickrock1371 Begging your pardon, but ocean going ships travers ... wait for it ... SALT WATER. And, just like people that live close to the ocean they have greater rust issues than people living further away from the ocean. So, quite independent on seawater entering the engine room there will always be some saltwater aerosolized in the air.
@@Raptorman0909 I've seen a few engine rooms that you could eat off of so somehow they manage to deal with traversing SALTWATER intelligently.
The margin for error is nonexistent. And to think that one day this masterpiece of art could be spending eternity at the bottom of some ocean.
Which makes me somewhat sad to think of all that beautifully machined work sitting in all those submerged shipwrecks, slowly corroding away
Everything on this world is in vain, not forever though.
As soon as you said it was a rough finish a little tear came out my eye, all that needs is just a little debarring and that’s it. Jobs done 👍🏾
Wow over 1200lbs😳😳 Those Kennametal Tools can really do some serious work!
How often do you need to change the inserts/endmills on a job like this?
@@roeschdan If coolant was used, and feeds and speeds adjusted for a balance of speed and tool life, I could see 1 Endmill doing all roughing but wouldn't be surprised if someone set it up to kill 1 but hog out material then use a 2nd to finish roughing.
He said he went through 3 endmills for the roughing. Not sure if he meant all from the 2 vids or just this one but in this vid you can see at 3:30 there are sparks and that's the material getting stuck on the endmill creating more heat as it cuts causing the casting to overheat too, then at 4:30 it shows an endmill cutting without the sparks. I didn't see a change like that anywhere else so 3 using just air with full flute length.
it's always fun to watch a massive machine create an endless supply of flying razor blades that range from 570 to 800 + decrees (or so)
This thing is a piece of art as is
Screw up once and that’s just what it will be😁
I don't know about others, but I figured they wanted it like this! It looks amazing just as it is!! If I was the customer I'd be cool with you stopping right there because then I'd have the coolest and most original ball valve ever!!
Loving the raw machining, truly an incredible process! Great work Barry and Ben!
Probably my favorite video in the last year or so
you need to spend more time on youtube... "PoliceActivity, Matt's offroad recovery, Cleetus Mcfarleen, Boat Zone, Bad Friends... "
It's like watching a sculpture take shape. Nice work.
The sound is scary and beautiful at the same time knowing the power and the precision machining it has!
I love the art deco of the rough machining, I hope you left it that way.
I like the way the rough finish looks. It looks awesome.
It's very therapeutic watching videos like this. Very relaxing.
Nice work Barry and Ben!
It's great that you give all the machine parameters so that I can try this a home!
I was mesmerized at 1:20 when it cut that thin slice of metal. That noise is something else. Great video!
SO SATISFYING!!! I could listen to that all day.
Love the head nod at 7:58
Great video! I envy Barry’s talent.
Love the asmr of this. Plus the dedication to send it without coolant and ruin tooling just for our pleasure ❤
This vid made me feel appreciation to engineers and who invented the CNC, it's amazing indeed.
Looks like an art piece. And damn the power of that machine.
The large portion of these videos are things we already do, but this is a beautiful piece of machining. Well done.
The pure poetry in motion. Awesome
Fascinating as this is to watch, and kudos to the Titan machinists for the setup and machining program, it makes me reflect on the fact that there's now a generation of machinists who've machined with nothing but CNC, and a generation of engineers who've designed with nothing but 3D CAD. They have, however, seen existing and historical parts manufactured by other means. It always seems crazy to me to duplicate the form of a casting by hacking something from solid material. It's a lot easier to form smooth, flowing shapes in a wooden pattern than it is in AISI 4140. As others here have pointed out, you could just leave this part with the fascinating, "Chrysler building" roughing pattern on it. It would function equally well and save a lot of machine time and cost. Or you could just design it as a series of interconnected, simple prismatic shapes. You'd think someone who could afford to buy a superyacht could afford to have a casting made, even for a one off? (And aren't all superyachts "huge?" By definition?)
WOW... I can Destroy a new drill bit in a second drilling brass and these Kennametal tools look they are about to melt and they still keep cuttin' away......... kinda Amazing to me.. I keep watching this video over and over waiting every time for something to go &%^$#............ just plain COOL Titan .
I assume you're talking about a small drill bit and not something the same size as those end mills (1 inch), although I guess if you crash hard enough any tool can break.
Also, Barry is the machinist in charge of this project and Ben is the cameraman.
I’m still surprised why they aren’t using a coolant, it’s been years since I’ve been around any CNC machines but this is amazing.
@@kidjetrecon7153 Just for filming purposes. If you watch videos with coolant turned on you'll find most of the time it blocks any view of the actual machining.
I'm sure if this was for production machining they'd have flood coolant (coming from the roof, and possibly other places with the machine's size), high pressure nozzle and/or through spindle coolant. At that point we'd have a better chance getting struck by lightning than seeing a shadow of the part.
I'd bet they do... not the best to splash cameras while filming.
Amazing work! That part looks sick!
I love machining sounds ! This thing looks awesome ;D
It looks like a trophy! I’d keep it looking just like it is. It’s art!
It doesn't surprise me the Vero did so well
that cnc program is incredible!
That part looks exquisite. It must have been so satisfying to produce it. I bet the yacht owner loved it.
Top tier machining video. Like all the others said, no music or monolog bs. And for real the amount of material that bit takes off per pass is mind boggling. I have a crystal Irish glass with a similar design... but done by hand 😏
Friggin Epic......wow. Just....carved through that steel like BUTTER. Loved this video!
Wish we could see that beauty being installed in the ship. Now I for one missed your commentary in the video as it's going as though the sound of cutting metal is good your commentary adds value to the part.
the pineapple texture looks incredible
Our profession is pure art, as I always tell people that don't have a clue what I'm actually doing for a living the last 38 Years. I make parts for machines that are either on land, in the water, in the air or in space. Some parts are really challenging and creates sleepless nights for the whole team but you accept it.
If you are properly trained by craftsmen you learn how to do it as cost efficient as possible with the minimal amount of wasted material, and that is where the challenge is. A good machinist understands his machine(s) and it's tools. It takes Years to learn this trade and it's awesome for a carreer challenge because once you get up to that level it still remains very satisfying. And you are always keen on that new project that will test you again.
Pure art you reckon?
Insane workmanship
looking forward to finishing video.
Carving out the inside is going more difficult than outside. I'm excited to see more.
This is a piece of functional art amazing design and machining.
The chip load is perfect
Looks like a piece I would love to have in my living room with a light shining on it
You sound exactly like John C Reilly. My wife thought I was watching Wreck it Ralph.
so peaceful to hear & see
Very impressive , great approach to the job!
Wow never knew Barry of all the employees would design this much detail into a part 😮☺️I’m use to seeing chatter marks (to much speed ) and blueing from the heat (too Deep) 😊just kidding with Ya Barry 👍🤞props 😊
LOL I was fully expecting comments claiming that this part was finished and the dragon scales are just my chatter marks
Thats some real beautyful maschining content right here 🔥
When I started watch I though yeah, well, OK...then I noticed that this "part" was 2200 pounds!
Amazing. (Great video, too! 👍)
When you can't hide tooling marks, you make them a work of art❤
Amazing machining!
I loved it when Titan had his show on the Discovery Channel many years ago. It is so amazing as to how far the business has gone since he first started doing this type of work. The fact that he was in a bad spot in his own life and that he has overcome the challenges of being in prison and changed his life around and to top it all off he is not the person that would never hire a person who has been to prison because he has been and knows that if you set your mind on doing great things it will come.
Good job Barry
Why thank you! Good times!
You're The Man Barry!
looks like an art piece!
That is seriously impressive...
Sick angles Ben!! Great video Barry! I don’t think it even needs finishing haha
this machine is a piece of art
Nice!!! That's the super power of a 5 axis work 💯🇺🇲💯💪👍
That's amazing to watch, I used to set and operate CNC machines but never made anything quite that complex. It makes me a little nervous, one wrong move and your machine is toast!
This is the first time i have seen a tool get used up in "real" time. Seeing the end of it getting duller and hotter as it went on.
Im guessing this is just as much of a tech demo as its actually making the part, im really impressed and i dont even know that much about cnc.
Amazing work!
As a ball valve engineer this is very intriguing!
Can you tell me what the function of this particular part is? I am intrigued as well.
Amazing work ... love it!
How many 1” end mills had been used?
That is NICE.
I do not see 100k in this, but when people have money, this is definitely worth it.
Unfortunately, nobody will ever see it after it will be installed.
Zero coolent was harmed in the making of this video!
This could be a sculpture!
Badass!
My father was a machinest, I was always fascinated by it as a child and teen, but my father wanted me to have nothing to do with the profession. Working with metal - watching that cutter go through steel like it's paper is amazing Everytime imaee it happen.
The sounds starting at 1:23 are amazing. Pure science fiction laser beam twang. Too cool (or maybe too hot?)
My not knowing ass thinking it was supposed to look artsy with all those patterns. Looking forward to the next few videos. Sweet valve
Chips, chips, and more chips! Love it!
Is there a specific reason you wouldn't just cast this and then do the finishing on a mill?
Would cost like 1/30th the price to cast it lol
This is a machining company. They specialize in this type of work and already have the equipment for it.
Why would they go out of there way to make less profit?
@@chaytonhurlow840 I'm looking at this from a broader perspective, it seems like it would be more efficient overall if it was done the way I described instead of being entirely machined from a homogeneous block of stainless.
That’s a really good question. It would probably be significantly cheaper to cast it, and then mill the faces of the flanges and clean up anywhere it seals with machinery.
Cast it= machine a mold, and then pay all the extra associated costs to get a weaker part
This. I want more of this.
The ease that those tools removed the steel it's like watching a hot knife going through butter .
1:54 Art Deco: Very nice. The roughing stage looks so great on curved parts.. (new definition of Blue-chip Company lol)
I personally like the way the roughing looks. Just make a nice deburring program and leave it rough. Definitely a work of art.
As someone who designs valves for a living. I love the look of this rough machining and for personal preference I would of loved to seen those rough cuts smoothed not to cut someone to the touch and kept in place. That rough machining looks like art. Hate to see it all lost to final machining and surface finish.
Looks so cool before finishing. Id leave it like that haha
Looks like cut crystal. Superb.
I wish I had some skills that could make me money. This is amazing engineering
Really cool video, I understand now why these parts are normally cast.
Great working nice sound 👌
Had my doubts if the fixture was rigid enough to get some nice tool-life, but it turned out well. I think the aftermath would be interesting on this part. Nice work guys 👍
The raw power of that machine to precisely manuever a steel billet that large is incredible. I also wonder how many pieces of tooling they chewed through on that one part.
The roughing pass left an incredible art deco look to the piece. With some gold plating it would be the fanciest ball valve on the planet 😂
Very very impressed 😊
The the teaching and master craftsmanship
hypnotizing for sure
i like the semi finished look of it it remind me of an artdeco sky scraper or something very rad
The pineapple look is fantastic.
holy shit. good work.
