A Tiny tool grinder part V, Finale
Ғылым және технология
This is the final test video in this series. I sharpen scissors, a wood chisel, a parting tool, a scriber, a large and a small drill, a two flute end mill and make a d-bit. If you have any questions, remarks, I invite you to let me know in the comments.
Maybe, if there is much viewers interest in this project, I will make a new video with drawings and some detailed explanation and tips.
No music this time... Brian had too much to say. I'll make it up next video.

There is a lot of demand for working drawings of this mini grinding machine. But I don't like spending many hours behind a CAD program to make decent working drawings. However, if there is anyone who enjoys doing that and would like to volunteer for it, that would be great! I have photos of every part, and almost all the important measurements are included. That could be a sufficient source for a set of useful working drawings. If that works, I will make an extra video with some detailed explanations about the materials and construction and of course you will also get all the credit you deserve in that video.
Very impressive series, covering a lot of ground, an inspiration for me - thank you very much !! As with many others, I’d love to see any sort of drawings you could share !
Yes, I am interested in a drawing, even if it crude.
The screw-cutting tool problem isn't clearance angle but helix angle. A shallow fine thread has lower helix angle, deep coarse thread a much more pronounced helix angle. If you look at tool 'head on' you need a 3~5 degree 'lean' in direction of thread (the helix angle) Your estimation of eight degrees would probably be fine for the thread you cut but you also remove three degrees from the 'trailing' side of tool so only a 2~3 degree clearance angle is needed. When I was training in mid 1970's, out instructor went a bit nuts drumming 'helix, helix, helix' into us then made us cut a 1" Whitworth thread (8 TPI, 55 degree thread angle, 0.080" deep) Helix angle even more important when your moving more than 3mm per revolution of work (0.125"/rev) Grinding tool to enable right and left threads to be cut made it quite weak so we made left and right tools. It's the only time I ever cut a 1" Whitworth thread but never forgot helix angles 😁
Excellent work! Definitely interested in drawings for this. Thank you!

If there is enough interest I will make a video with the dimensional sketches
might be a good idea to add a hose fixture for vacuum, carbide dust is not super healthy. The tool grinder is amazing, well done. You should build and sell these if there's enough interest. I'd buy one :)
Great work on this series. We shared this video (alongside all the other ones) on our homemade tools forum this week 😎
I Want One ...and I don't even have a shop!!! Very versatile well thought out grinding machine!

One item I thought of was possibly a quick vise method of grabbing and releasing the collets. Like a preset clamp that only needs it's throw broken loose to adjust clamped material. Fantastic build.
I am interested in drawings to. Nice work.
Very impressive Michel. I do like the design very much. All my work is on a much larger scale, however I can certainly appreciate the machinists who works small, it can be very challenging. Cheers
Those are terrific results Michel, Congrats!!

Looks great Michel, I'd love to build one for myself.
Very interesting result. Thanks for sharing. Drawings always are appreciated!!
REally great work. Yes please can you supply drawings?
Excellent work! I'm impressed and lining up for the drawings. If drawings where available we could perhaps contribute with parts and features to this marvellous creation. Love to see it continue to grow. Thanks for sharing your work with us!

If I make working drawings, they will become available at no cost.
very nice ! i would be interested in drawing if you decide to make them available
like the tool you use for setting toolheight , nice and simple and probably eazier to spot than holding it up against the center of the eehr life center truily interested in the drawings , like i said before this machine is more usefull for less money than a d bit grinder , and maibe you can make the toolholder measuring part so it can be put in place of a toolrest on a good stationairy grinder , be a bit harder to make it fit universally though and probably be a bit more limmited to wat you could do with it the daimond wheel changer would be a good idea , i seen those on surface grinders these have a cone and drawbar , could probably make one using the machine itself to center and taper for the arbours perfectly once you have rough machined it using the shaft and tread you have on it now basicly use the little grinder like a tiny lathe since you have the grinder itself on a slide you might be able to build a base for it so it can be used as a toolpost grinder too (be too high for the verry small lathe to bolt it straight up on the crosslide you have unless you hang it on sideways sticking out way in front of the quick change toolpost) or make another way shorter base post for the grinder

Thank you! Yes, I know, drawings of this machine are in demand. I'll see if I can find the extra time to produce some sketches. Not complete working drawings, but more the main lines and important dimensions, provided with comments that a builder can use to adjust things themselves if desired.
Very nIce build Michel! I have a few extra ideas 😊. First I think the thread cutting tool should have a minute radius on the tip of the tool to reduce stress in the neck of the thread. For e.g. M6 it should be a 0,144 mm radius. Next I would add a place, or several, for an indicator to stand to repeat cutting positions on a endmill or drill more precise. But you know "de beste stuurlui staan altijd aan wal" Hartelijke groet, Job
@Michel-Uphoff

Hi Job! Thanks! Yes, every thread should have a radius at the root. The problem is that it differs per thread pitch. For this 2 mm pitch it should be around 0.3 mm. But I must confess that I sometimes sin against that, moving the toolpost a tenth of a mm or so back and forth to make a flat bottom in the thread as a stress relieve and also to cut only one flank at a time. But now I can grind decent tools I am planning to grind 3 thread cutters, with 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mm radius, so I can roughly cover all pitches from 0.25 to 2.0 mm. That should suffice I think. I have a few indicators and magnetic bases that I can use. Actually, I didn't thought of this until now, and I will test the repeatability in de coming days. So thanks!

There was nothing wrong with your voice Michel. A great job here. BTW. Eccentric Engineering has an Acute Sharpening System that is worth looking at. He has kits to build or finished systems. Love your work.

It's the artificial voice of Brian. Nice tip, thank you! I paid them a visit. Looks good, but it doesn't seem really stable / rigid to me. And a bench grinder is needed which is way too big for me.
❤😮Super
It must be most satisfying to build and use your own tools especially one as complex as your grinder. I only managed a scriber so far but from little acorns.

@rodbutler9864 Aah! Thanks! I know that English has a lot of expressions, just like Dutch, but I didn't know this one yet (amongst many, many others) . Sometimes we joke here that if we were to have a conversation with a foreigner, based solely on Dutch sayings, expressions, and proverbs, (which is quite possible, there is a site that claims they collected 20 thousand Dutch sayings etc) the listener would be convinced that either we really didn't speak Dutch at all or that we belonged in a mental institution .
Amazing!
An excellent project well executed.

@@Sigmatechnica If that's the focus, then the maximum size of your tool bits could be a good reference for the dimensions. My toolbits are max 10*10 mm so there was no need for a larger machine. And using ø 80 mm diamond wheels gives me the opportunity to grind carbide without paying much for multiple wheels.

Yes, 200 watts is just enough. I would have preferred a little more power, but it suffices. This motor had the desired dimensions and was so cheap that I bought two. One as a spare.

What Voltage and currend settings you used on the powersupply?
@Michel-Uphoff
4 ай бұрын
The motor has a Kv (velocity constant) of 250 rpm per volt. So at 24 volts it runs at 6000 rpm and at the maximum of 48 volt it runs at 12000 rpm. The maximum allowed power consumption is 200 watt. So at 24 volt the maximum current is 8.3A and at 48 volt about 4 A
Is it for sale??
