    I do love how you put the blue Dykem on the gear blank being cut. Not sure why but I find it comforting.

    • @samdude1953
      @samdude1953 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Do you mean Loc-Tite 609 used to glue that tiny cutter in place? That stuff come in very handy. (Dykem is great too. I use the blue, but occasionally also the green color for complicated layouts.)

    • @gseivert
      @gseivert Před 10 měsíci +2

      @@samdude1953 No I mean the blue Dykem he puts on the outer edge of the gear blank before he cuts the gears. It’s not like he marks the tooth location and then manually cuts each tooth. It’s as if he puts the Dykem on out of habit.

    • @mpetersen6
      @mpetersen6 Před 10 měsíci

      ​@@samdude1953
      As l understand it Green Dykem is specifically meant for brass and other copper based alloys. When I was working I had Blue, Red and White. The White is meant for working with cast iron. For general work IMO Red is much better than the Blue. Blue Dykem flakes off far to easily no matter how clean the surface is. But the best layout fluid for ferrous metals is Copper Sulfate. Commonly called Blue Vitriol. Does not dissolve under cutting fluids or flake off. Yet polished off easily. Can be mixed at home using Copper Sulfate Root Killer.
      Dykem also used to have a Yellow and Purple iirc.

      ​@@samdude1953I believe they're talking about the miniscule blank at 6:20 - I think it would be very hard to see the cuts without it!

    • @robertbackhaus8911
      @robertbackhaus8911 Před 10 měsíci +2

      To allow him to see exactly when the cut is completed - as soon as the blue goes away, you know the cut is done. You don't want to go any further - maybe even leaving a tiny strip of blue would be best.

  • @BrassLock
    @BrassLock Před 10 měsíci +1

    I didn't know a darn thing about gear cutters until I saw this 😮 . Matthias's gear calculator for _"Wooden Gears"_ was a beginning guide for me to see how hand-cutting plywood gears is possible.
    But lathe cutting of metal wheels _(by creating your _*_own bespoke_*_ gear cutters)_ seemed very complicated; however your videos helped me to understand that it's really possible. 😊

    • @mpetersen6
      @mpetersen6 Před 10 měsíci +2

      When I was working I cut more gears than I care to imagine. The most satisfying were Helicals. To cut a Helical your math for the index and Feed ratios have to be dead on at least a difference off .00005 or less. That's because we cut gears on machines that generate to tooth form. Gear Hobbing and Gear Shaping machinery. The nice thing there is one cutter will cut the whole range of teeth that would take a whole set of profile cutters.

    I suggest this series has done more for encouraging clock/watchmaking than any other series I have seen. The fun side effect is that this kind of machining is not only helpful in keeping costs in-house, but a fantastic introduction to general maching too... not to mention learning attention to detail.

    Chris this was an absolutely marvellous revelation to me. Thank you so much! I have a number of broken toothed gear train wheels for my 22 year old Chinese 12x19" imperial lathe that has a milling head fitted to it. I have absolutely no idea as to the proper geometry to the gear teeth used. And no idea as to how to go about finding out the correct profile( module or whatever) for these gear wheels. Can you or any of your viewers/subscribers point me in the right direction please? I'd love to be able to produce at least a fly cutter type gear cutter to replace my broken change wheels. And before someone suggests it. I contacted the British seller ( Warco) and replacements are no longer avaliable and they were unable to tell me the details of the gear teeth profile.

  • @kokodin5895
    @kokodin5895 Před 9 měsíci

    if i'm not mistaken you could make cutters with more cutting edges if you make more holes for indexing in the fixture, and 4 was juat the simplest pattern to make with 2 axial measurment
    but i am impressed how the fixture works as resharpening tool
    since cuting edge profile is relived inwards the profile stays the same after sharpening even multiple times while cutter itself might get smaller
    but for heavy weared cutter i would also implement some kind of a stop so you resharpen all surfaces to the same depth, it would avoid the situation that one cutting edge becomes longer after sharpening and the cutter hunts with just one edge while rest remain fresh and hidden because they have nothing to do, with multitooth cutters that might be intentional to stagger the cut over multiple teeth like a broach, but with only 4 edges it would be probably best if they all cut the same

    The best produced content on YT. Hands down, you put together such high-quality entertaining educational content, I would think you were backed by a large production budget and company. It's a travesty that your channel doesn't get 30 million views a video. I hope you continue to be motivated to make these because I sure enjoy them. Thanks for sharing your passion with us.
    P.S. I have never been a machinist or work with metal in any way. (Amateur woodworker)
    So if you can entertain someone like me with something I have no current intention of pursuing, you are definitely doing something right with your channel. You Rock.

    Can you show the escapement cutter creation and use? It sounds like a beautiful short video (or short)

    Does relief angle matter? Like im sure theres a minimum for chip clearance and then a maximum to keep structural integrity; but is there a prescribed angle for types of cuts?

    Another great video as always. Can you please tell me where you get your tool steel from in Australia? Cheers.

      hales.com.au for gauge plate, drill rod and various plate mild steel; blackwoods.com.au also good for drill rod - Cheers :)

    A bit of a random comment, here: I've noticed that power and lighting switches in the States are 'up' for 'on'; here in the UK it's always been the opposite - down is on, up is off.
    What's the norm in Australia, Chris? (Making allowances for being upside-down, of course...🙃)

    can you make wormgear?

    • @robertbackhaus8911

      Cutting a worm gear would be done in the same way you would do single-point thread cutting. The cutter profile would be the same as for cutting a rack, except maybe with extra clearance.
