Milling Vice Alignment? No, Thanks! Milling Vice Modification
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 10. 2020
- I wanted to make this for a very long time and now I finally found some time to do it. It's always very annoying and time consuming to align the milling vice on the table with the dial indicator. Now I drilled and reamed a few holes in the bottom of the vice, so I can align it just with two hardened pins in the slots of the milling table. It turned out very well and works very accurate. This will be a huge help in the future.
I hope you like my work and the video.

I love how proud he sounds when he opens up with "That's my milling vise! :)"
as a mechanical enthusiast myself I feel the same way when I talk about my tools :)
I too would be proud of that.
It *is* a very nice milling vise... :)
And taps it multiple times 😂
@@hahagagagaga4710 they’re called love taps ;)
You've made it even more interesting to watch and understand with your verbal explanations.
I just want to say that it's wonderful to hear your voice, and giving the explanation of what you're doing.
More of this type of content please!!! Machinist basics as you said in another comment is very interesting to machinists and non-machinists alike. Machinists get to review the fundamentals, non-machinists get an insight into your work and your work is outstanding. Your lathe work is simply awe inspiring, for example. Non-machinists should know what goes on behind the scenes. I’m sure every one of them watching this video has a new appreciation for the mill set up you’ve had to do so many times throughout your videos. Also congrats on how much more relaxed you sound. I know you were worried about your English but don’t be, you’re perfectly understandable and it’s good to hear your explanations.
Thank you very much
@@mymechanicsinsights Thank YOU, mate. :)
I hope whoever inherits your shop appreciates how incredible it really is.
He's not going to have someone inherit his shop. When his body gets old, He makes a new one
Hopefully this means you can pump out more content faster. I can't get enough. I've tried watching other restoration channels. The swine couldn't even bother re-threading the screws. And then, oh God, he painted over the rust!
Did your head un-explode later on ?
@@MyTubeSVp oh yeah, i'm good now.
"I used the mill to fix the mill."
Like Tesla. They build the machine that builds the machines that build the machines.
Let's just take a moment to appreciate how difficult it must have been for him to resist making a new one.
Welcome to brain games
So it is. You need a lathe to make a lathe and so on.
That's kind of how it works. The first things people (tinkerers) use their 3D printer for is 3D print stuff to make their 3D printer better. :D
I'm quite sure I'll never need to do this, and yet I'm pleased to know how it is done.
A couple holes and 2 pins for the rails. Well, often the simplest solutions make the biggest Difference. Just how I love it, and now it's always Dead Centred & Straight as an Arrow.
I have to confess... this sounds a little complicated for me to understand but in the end we can see how doing this will going to save a precious time in adjustments. Thanks for the video 🙂
I can understand that, it's really machinists stuff here. Allthought just basics, but still... Thanks for watching :-)
@@mymechanicsinsights Maybe it would be easier to understand why you do certain things if you demonstrate the problem that would occur if you don't do them. e.g. what would happen if you just drill the holes without the aluminium block ;)
@@abscopal I mean I agree it's easier to see mistakes for demonstration purposes, but it's also quite wasteful if you really want to show what would happen. Maybe do a cheap mockup with wood or something.
@@InstrucTube OFC that's what I've meant. I did not mean to intentionally destroy the machinery :D
@@abscopal Figured, but yeah, wanted to make sure. :P
The world needs people like you, a true master. Very highly skills👏
Thank you very much :-)
It is amazing you found pins that are an exact fit for your t-slots AND had a reamer to fit that unusual pin size! 👍
Milling the Ali block to provide reference faces was a good idea, I'll remember that, thanks for posting.
Very nice milling machine, looks a little more robust than the milling attachment on Emco lathes!
I had no idea what a milling mashine is, but I Iove your practical intelligence and creativity in finding solutions for problems I didn't even know, they existed.
Always good to streamline tool setup! makes it a joy to use the mill and prevents simple mistakes from happening
Your videos are educational. I don’t have the tools that you have but it is so satisfying to watch. I see you take great pride of what you doing and doing so well. Thank you for all your videos on both channels.
Love the modifications you've made to both the lathe and now the milling machine. I also love the explanations you give. Thanks for being educational as well as entertaining. Love your work. 😊
Do a guide of your shop!
Join his Patreon, he has one on there.
@@Vickie-Bligh unfortunately, I can't afford it.
Excellent modification. I can imagine a lot of operations are not done because of the hassle of squaring the vice. You could use locating pins for angles too.
A time-saving AND precise solution? Brilliant! Thanks for sharing!
We just gripped a piece of keysteel that fitted tight in the table slots. Turn the vice over gripped the key steel clamped the vice down. Mill a slot that fitted the key steel, drill and tapped the key steel to the vice and that made it true with the axis. All you had to do was put the vice on the table and clamp it down it was always spot on.
@Gmail X Not really, that is the way a lot of vises made specifically for mills come from the factory. Trevor just did a retrofit.
Gold
@Gmail X I think you did.....
Exactly the way I've always done it .. so much easier ...
Yup! I did that about 15 years ago when I bought my small mill and vice. However I just bought a new vice and might try the dowel pin method.
And this is why you are amazing, because your attention to detail is something fantastic!!
I said it before and will say it again! It's much more interesting when you explain what and why you are doing this! I learn much more. You are very talented!
As a machinist myself I always wondered why such pins are not preinstalled or at least the holes in the vice. Good job!
I don't understand anything of what you are doing or how you came up with that idea but I really like to hear you explain and do all this new things to your machines
I enjoy watching you work in your shop even on mundane projects.
Wow Mr My. I have to admit I was a bit sceptical at the outset - I didn't think the tee-slots would provide the accuracy you were after. But the proof is in the eating of the pudding and it looks like you've cooked it just right. Well done.
T-slots in milling table are always very precise in width. So they're not just there to clamp stuff with t-nuts, also as help for alignment.
Waiting for you to say: "i make a new one "
I was thinking that too!
Yeps, me too ! 😀
You are awesome. Fantastic solution and I really like when you speak in this video
I really enjoyed this explanation of "fixing an issue". Also the precision on which you work is stellar!
Also rounding the end of the T-Nuts, saves the pain of lining them all up exactly every time.
Luv the Videos! Great content every time.
been a fan a long time, and at this point i enjoy this much more than the restore videos. id love to see more technical work with the mill, lathe and whatever other tools and machines you have in your shop.
As many as you possibly can. But never rush the work. The reason why I love your videos so much is because I am a difficult man to please so if the work is not perfect I do not enjoy the video. It is all about details 😌. But also more videos more better for me. ❤️
Great job, I did this on my bridgeport mill vice a few years back. What a time saver !! 👍🏻
omg he talks!!! love ur videos! best restoration videos I've ever seen. love how u don't fast forward them with the sound. don't change ur style. great work bud!
Gut erklärt ! Hätte nicht gedacht, dass solche Toleranzen bei Präzisionsmaschinenauftauchen.
Do I know what he's talking about? Nope! Did I still watch it all? Yep!
His brackets were wobbly and he had to adjust them every time. So he made well fitting slidy pins.
I enjoy hearing you narrate these videos. I know it won't be for everyone so understand if it doesn't make it to your main videos but it made an interesting change.
A true improvement.
Made the useabilty improve by 100%
I JUST HEARD THE VOICE OF A GOD
umm....no.
Maybe people hear voices in their heads. Does yours give you instructions?
I love your videos. And I love Switzerland hahaha. You guys make tools and other stuff with such amazing precision and quality. Greetings from Sweden :)
While this was a great tutorial and very well thought out from watching your indicator bobble back and forth between .001 and .0005 of inch you make want to grind your fixed jaw to ensure it is flat and perpendicular to vise bed and also check your thrust bearing in your x-axis for play if it's not a ball screw and adjust it and the gibs on table if your machine has them..
I use kurt vise on a Bridgeport's style knee mill and been able to indicate a vise in less than a minute without any pins or key slots..its a competition at my workplace.
Wonderful to watch. It calms me for some reason.
Very nicely done, especially the fixturing 👍
This is one of the best educational video I have ever seen.
REFERENCE video
I would suggest using a gauge pin in the threaded holes to indicate from. But I love the channel. Great content sir!
Guys like you who are this good should be working for NASA! Excellent!
This is content beyond great i love how good care you take for the tools
I love watching these. Super cool to see what you come up with to make life easier. You are very intelligent.
Great to hear your voice and you are amazing! I have watched all of your videos and am inspired by everything you do. Thanks for all of the videos and hope you keep making more for us to enjoy!
The voice over is a great addition to your already wonderful videos :)
Hope to hear you more often in newer videos.
Love your verbal explanations, its cool to hear your voice! Vielen Dank!
I really need a mill and lathe. Great to hear your voice!
I have never machined anything in my life and I loved (and understood) every minute of it. Except for the measuring tool, I am not sure how that works but I love it anyway.
smart upgrade!...i can see that'll save tons of time.
*you deserve all your nice tools.*
Me clicking to watch the modification
mM: *Talks**
Me: SURPRISED PIKACHU FACE
DID he just talked through the video?? 😳😳
I had to double check the channel!!!!!!!!!
You must be new
@@hahagagagaga4710 me ?? New?? 🤣
Thank you for not adding music. I like to hear the voice and machines talking.
Nice to hear your voice finaly. I love all your videos.
I have no idea what you were doing, but you did a really good job. I think you're capable of creating and manipulating very elaborate 3-D models in your head. Einstein shared that trait.
I think I recall you mentioning in a comment on your main channel about not being proficient in English? My American ears understood everything you said perfectly! Maybe I recall incorrectly? :D
I love that you have this channel as well. Please, never stop.
Now you can get going right away without having to mess with alignment, very nice job!
This is going to depend heavily on the precision of the bed grooves. With a 10mm M6 pin (10,015/10,006) in a reamed 10,1mm hole (maybe 10,110/10,090 if set up well), you've already got 104um potential misalignment. If the grooves in the bed are wider than 10.1mm, you're right back to where you started. Either your bed grooves are extremely tightly toleranced, or you got lucky when tightening the nuts 😜
I said it wrong, it's reamed 10.01mm. The groves are pretty much the same.
@@mymechanicsinsights In that case, good mod!
I liked how you ground the aluminium block in situ instead of trying to do the same annoying adjustment job on it.
Nice! Simple solution to a big problem.
Always fascinating! Thank you for such a great video!
Друг, ты просто красава, педант, мастер, ювелир. Каждый день смотрю и жду твои видео, переживаю твои знания, благодарю, жму руку. Новый идей, больших успехов, благополучия в финансах!)
Your entire mill setup wobbles like crazy. Is not the mill by itself.. is the way is mounted to the floor that's not good enough. Still the idea presented is very valuable. Thanks :)
So, it looks ready for your new project, and I'll wait with a bunch of patience.
Interestedly creative work, well done!
My Mechanics 😉 This is very good 👍
It's nice to see the oiler you restored here
Haha. For a second I thought it was an impostor because ‘My Mechanics’ never speaks. Hahahaha. Great to hear your voice... and that was such a simple yet effective trick you did.
This is absolutely the most BITCHEN idea I have seen in a very long time ! thank you so very much ! I will be doing this very same thing tomorrow !
I like your voice, and explaing method.it's new channel, I proud you my friend.
I love your milling machine. What is its model?. Nice job. Thanks.
Aciera n3 universal mill
Exactly
Excelente video sobre esta modificación del tornillo de banco de fresado, muy bueno el método para fijación, saludos y mis respetos desde Venezuela.
Great idea & very well done, thank you for sharing with us.
Спасибо! :)
Keep it up! So intriguing, but I’ve watch all of yours :)
Hey Friend! Very nice job! Like done.
Very Well Done I like how you think on this a little bit of work & much easier to setup for next time !!!
Excellent, as always! Thanks!
Super creative and interesting.
I have a similar setup on my milling vise. Having this feature makes me more willing to remove my vise when needed, which gives me more flexibility with my setups.
“This is my vice”
Roughly turns vice over.
“These are the dints and bruises in my table”
Great idea.
Love your videos!
Great idea to get a quick accurate setup 👍🏻
Thank you for these videos. Your work is fantastic and I’m learning a lot as well.
Perfect....... Like always.
Thanks for the new video.
And you're using the oil can! I love to see your restorated pieces in action.
Great work!
That is perfect, A milling machine is to rough out the project you are working on.. So in most cases it does not have to be exact.. You use a surface grinding for the exact Dimensions.. I miss using these machines.. so much fun taking a raw piece of metal and making an item
Genius! I like it.
Приятно смотреть твои видео, отличная работа как всегда!
It’s pleasantly to watch your videos, nice job!
I didn't know he ever spoke. Cool
Interesting vid. Thank you.
"So far so good" is OK but your work is always beautiful and beyond just "good."
Hats off! The man is a monster!
Very cool idea! I don't know if I could ever get myself to do it on a Kurt vise but I still loved the video.
Kudos to the dial indicator feature, look cool when operations...
Hi, thanks for this. The fixture is a very good idea and I'll use it. Cheers. BobUK.
Thanks for watching, much appreciated
