    Thanks. You just saved me a small pile of money. I had been thinking buying a set of angle gages. After watching your vid I scampered out to the shop, squared up a bunch of 1/4" x 4" by 3" aluminum plates, and then used the DRO to drill and ream .251" holes on 3.000" centers on the X and appropriate offsets on the Y. By putting four holes in each plate I could make two angle blocks from most of the square plates. I sawed them splitting the two angles and used my little Rong Fu to finish the angle on each one. Took about 3 hours. Now I have a nice set of aluminum angle blocks from 0.5 to 30 degrees (0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 22.5, 25, 30).

    Long time toolmaker here. In this situation, I superglue the jig to the back jaw and use a stop on lower end of the part.
    When done, knock off the jig and razor off the glue.

    • @joepie221
      @joepie221  Před 2 lety

      For some reason, super glue is never a consideration when I think out a setup. I may have to start putting it on the list.

    From the design side, I designed aerospace cameras and paper mill equipment, and I hardly ever used a sine or cosine. I worked the tangent, which I find the easiest to use, and always ended up with spot-on x and y dimensions, which made the machinists happy. They didn't have to do the trig. Just x and y. Nice trick! I'm not a machinist, just a woodworker dabbling in machining, and I'm glad I subscribed. Gems like this video keep me coming back!
