That was one of the best explanations of cutter geometry I've seen. You're often hard on yourself for your English but you are very understandable. And using the old tap for a shear tool is genius - adjustable angles, I'm totally stealing that idea!

Nice finish with the modified tap sheer tool. I like the round shank idea to change the front face angle, saves a lot of grinding because you can tune it in to get the best finish on different metals. One of those is a priority on my to make list now lol. Cheers Tony

Hey Rusty - nice intro ;-) Also - you are an excellent teacher, and doing it all in your non-native language makes it all the more impressive. I would have loved to have found your channel while I was learning about sharpening. I don't have a shaper (yet!!) but it turns out shaper tools and lathe tools are very similar. Now - how do I mill air cooling fins into my lathe toolbits, without breaking my other bits? :-) PS: I think you need to make a very HEAVY clapper clamping bolt, then you can say goodbye to the elastic bands. The re-cycled tap was great - now is the ideal time to teach folks that they can make something useful out of something discarded. Awesome stuff. Cheers, Craig

Hi Craig. Thanks for your nice comment. For making coolfins, maybe with polystyrene :-) For the clapper, i was thinking of a system with a spring to push the tool down.

@CraigsWorkshop

4 жыл бұрын

@@Rustinox Yes - the spring is a good idea. I will be interested to see what you come up with. It's not totally unlike the need to weigh down a horizontal bandsaw (or hacksaw). Sometimes when I have a very wide cut, with lots of teeth engaged, I will clamp a small disc of lead to the outboard end of my saw. This saves me having to lean on the saw! Also when the saw blade is blunt, I need to add more weight :-)

Air cool fins. Nice :)

Something i have to try.

Hello Rusty! I am trying to grind on my shaper lathe some details on a soft tool steel (23 HRC) but it keeps ripping off (scrubbing) the metal. Any idea if it's the tool bit causing the problem, the cutting angles the tool bit has? Grinding wheel can not be used. Thanks for helping me out. Really appreciate it!

@Rustinox

2 жыл бұрын

For very soft steel you can use more aggressive angles. A back rake and a side rake of 15°-20°. Keep the nose radius very small. It's maybe a good idea to color the cutting edges with a sharpie, take one cut and inspect the tool with a magnifying glass.

Michel, Bear here, just found and going tomorrow Nov 26 2021 a Kloppe 450mm . Any good? And yours is ?? Hope you can advice, Bears Rod Shop, new subscriber since toolfest2021 👍👍
