  • Ever wondered what the Rockwell scale really means? What number on the scale is a "good" degree of hardness? How to measure the hardness of your part? Or what equipment to use?
    In this video, Skye and Angelo talk about the Ames Hardness Tester that we use, and show you guys how to use it.

    lol what's going on at 2:42 - it's like John is sneaking in like a ninja to grab something under the table.

    Very interesting, I’ve always wanted to see how that’s done.👍🙂

    Great solution for holding the hardness tester. I have the same model & you need a third hand to use it. How much to have you print one and ship to the US? Must have.

    G'day mate! is there any chance I could get a copy of the stl file for your hardness tester stand? I've got the same model and would love to print one off for myself. great video! thanks for making it.

      Yes, same request! I have the Ames portable tester, and would greatly appreciate a 3d printed stand :)

    Do you know about the Wazer (Water cutter) already? Might be interesting for quick prototyping.

    Do you find machining hardened steel a bit tricky?

  • @nelsonchen7823
    @nelsonchen7823 Před 5 lety +1

    have you considered testing the blades again post machining? this obviously will scrap the blade, but it would be an interesting experiment to see if the inside is indeed the same hardness as the outside.

    Where do you read the hardness on that device?

    Hey! Is RWL34 the only steel you ever use? Never Elmax or M390?

    With regard to the title of the video, it sure would have been nice to see the dials and scale close up to see what you were actually seeing and reading. Thanks for sharing though!

    I think the guy holding the camera was out drinking last night , or maybe the guy doing the hardness testing .....either way someones got the shakes

    Alec Steel did some great videos about metal hardening with real engineering, must see if you interested in this process.
