  • Mist Coolant is the simplest option for home machinists with aCNC Mill, but mist systems fill yout workshop and lungs with clouds of coolant. This video describes how to build a version of the Fog Buster mister we called the MystBuster

    Your writing, editing, elocution and subject matter expertise are all high quality and very much appreciated.
    It is no exaggeration to say that you get the message across, with more detail and clarity than most in your domain. Many thanks!

    Awesome - love the idea of here is the commercial version - but if you want to make it here is a make your own version...
    For those that can't get the pipe another option maybe 1/8" with 0.097" ID Copper. Obviously more bendable and I presume bends are bad...?
    The options available in the US - makes the rest of us jealous. 😀
    And yes I'd love the plans

    Will be interesting to see how it works. I have a simple T-junction between coolant tube and air hose and it works reasonably well.

      The patents is really insistent on a needle valve mixing chamber, so I just ran with that - the results have been good, but it takes a bit more machining effort

    I just found your channel and I'm impressed with your version of your Mystbuster. Since you offered I would very much appreciate a copy of the prints so that I may try to build one for myself. Thanks very much for your time and efforts in creating your videos for us to learn from.

    Super content, great presentation and good timing as I am setting out to make one of these myself as one of the first projects on my very first CNC.
    One tiny plea, though, please consider dropping your background music another 6dB or so. It's low already but still competing a tad too much with your voice over for attention;). Having the music sit 15-20dB under your voice over track is a common rule of thumb but just listen to it with headphones and err on the side of too low and you'll be good.
    As for my own version and whilst I have never used an MQL system, I have sourced all the parts needed so that I don't have to use needle valves at all. I read a few too many posts from people saying they are fiddly. So, I went with the peristaltic pump option as e.g. Jorg from JBworx has a few videos on.
    I got a pump that can put out a really small amount of liquid and some precision pressure regulators so that I can independantly set pressures for the air as well as the coolant reservoir. I am not sure I will even need to pressurize the reservoir since I have a peristaltic pump but we will see.
    I have also bought a bunch of long Luer Lock needles that are used in dispensing machines for all sorts of liquids and can be had in many different sizes and lengths. But they won't have the smaller nozzle, so if that is important, I am not sure how well they will work.
    Anyhow, thanks so much for the video, looking forward to the next ones:)

      @@eclecticbuilds1424 That's great news, I will definitely have a peek at them, too. I do think my first versions will be resin printed, mainly because I have a resin printer some strong resin. If it works out in resin, I may not ever get around to making it in alu. I may just harness the advantages of resin printing in terms of designing internal features, such as air channels in a way we couldn't do with machining.
      Time will tell, but thanks so much for the videos - and the dive into the patent.

    Will there be a metric version of the designs?

    • @eclecticbuilds1424
      @eclecticbuilds1424  Před 4 měsíci

      Yes, the metric equivalents are in the drawings, but I went with ANSI rather than OSI perspective

      Good question - I dont have it to hand at the moment, but it was off Amazon - look for water filters
      Details will be in the system build video out in a couple of weeks
