Wow, the fast paced logical narration with the matching CAD happening in the background is very attractive. Very nice to follow your thought processes and how you apply the solutions. Just want to add that keeping the parts count down is a good thing and something I struggle with still. Keep 'em coming.

Hi vondeliusc - thanks again for the positive feedback! You make a very good point. When we arrive at something we think might be “final” it would be an interesting challenge to try and re-model it with 1 or 2 fewer parts - and then maybe even repeat the process - and see what we come up with. Thanks for the comment! - Adam

The way Sean works, there's no BS. It's straight out. I can't imagine how he found you. Amazing work. I'm learning alot. Just with this one video I could make my own Dremmel or any other tool.

Crazy awesome stuff!

different size bearigns are much easier to intall on a shaft since you don't have to hammer one all the way onto the shaft. Grate idea.

Hi Harley - thanks for the kind words! I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos. I’m the most comfortable in SolidWorks because it’s what I’m used to, but Fusion brings some great ideas to the table, too. Have you tried it?

🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼

This comment section is gold for inexperienced engineers

Decisions, decisions. Lots of options here. I think you could dramatically simplify the height adjustability. The table with guide tracks should be a foot long minimum for stability. The guide tracks table assembly could be hinged at one end and simply moved up and down with a jack screw or better yet, a sliding wedge from the other end. Less complexity and moving parts. Just an idea guys.

Adding a spindle lock/brake may be a nice feature. It would make the tool-change a bit more straightforward.

@adamdebowski2037

Hi Tyler - thanks for the feedback. That’s a great idea. We’ve go wrench flats above the nut on the main shaft so you can use two wrenches to remove the drum - but your idea would be better. I’m not sure how to add a brake to a motor, though. Maybe there’s a way?

@@adamdebowski2037 I really enjoyed learning about your design process. Definitely took away some pointers. Some of the wood routers have a blind hole drilled in the side of the spindle shaft and they just drop a pin into it to lock out the shaft. Usually, the pin is on a spring return so that the motor can't easily be started while the lock is applied (the cost of magic smoke and sparks being what it is today). Specifically, the Makita RT0701C uses a pin system like this and it works well for CNC router applications.

Perfect 💪

Autodesk deserves a lot of credit for what they've done. I love SolidWorks because it's what I'm most comfortable with, but it's totally out of reach for most people. I'm one of the lucky ones & have access to it through work, but Fusion brings some very interesting concepts to the table that IMO make it better than SolidWorks in some respects! I love their top-down approach and the ability to easily flip between bodies/components. Great fresh ideas.

Can't wait to see this to the end. You have me inspired now. I've got some ideas on how to do this with some extra 3D Printer parts I have lying around. One question I have though what tool is that you are using to set the curve on the drum. I'm trying to recreate that in fusion and I can get close but was just curious if there is an equivalent tool in Fusion.

@adamdebowski2037

Hi Kevin, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! You can use the "revolve" tool in Fusion to model the drum, and set the curve in it perfectly. Check out this little Fusion360 tutorial on the revolve tool: kzread.info/dash/bejne/h2t1pKtygLbQm7A.html

@@adamdebowski2037 Hey thanks. Yeah I was trying to figure out how you created the curve in the drawing, but I think I figured out a couple of ways to do it in Fusion both using the revolve tool, 1. I created a 4" diameter Cylinder then a 12" circle and had it cut out the 12" radius in the cylinder with the drum but I also found that if I'm drawing I can also set the line to the correct radius the revolve similar to you. I'm trying to push myself with CAD. I'm trying a different approach which is going to end up with slightly bulkier tool, looking forward to where yours ends up. Thanks for the reply.

I don't like the hold down to support the fret board. Wouldn't it be easier to adjust from the top with one knob? Maybe mount some 608zz bearings and spring load them?

How did you learn Solidworks so well, I've been wanting suggestions as to where i can find informative videos. Do you suggest paying for training? Or even free youtube videos, i just want to work my way up to a level that you are at !

@adamdebowski2037

Hi Jo - I’m “formally” trained in SolidWorks through one of the local companies that distributes It in my area, and I do think it was beneficial but wouldn’t call it necessary. I’ve likely learned the most by watching others work in the software. You’ll see all kinds of little tips/tricks you might not have known existed… then it’s just practice. Try looking up some solidworks modelling videos and following along on your own. Challenge yourself to model something every day for a week, or two, or a month! Model your desk, your lamp, your chair, fridge, dishwasher, everything around you! If you decide to take a training course, it’ll be more beneficial if you go into it with some practice under your belt. I’ve been using solidworks for years and still learn new things regularly, which keeps things exciting - finding out you can speed up your work flow with new knowledge.

Hi Santos Knives! McMaster is truly amazing - such a great service. Don’t bother with Solidworks - go with Fusion360. They’re much more similar than they are different, and lots of designers use Fusion360 to make amazing stuff. I’ve got access to solidworks through my employer and it’s what I’m used to. If I didn’t, I would be on Fusion360 no question. It’s an amazing software and you shouldn’t hesitate to get it! Cheers - Adam

Hi Bob, to get started with modelling it’s still free. You even have access to CAM for free, albeit with some restrictions on operations and speeds. I’m paying $70 (ish) USD monthly to have the Unrestricted CAM but know people who use the free CAM with restrictions regularly.
