The real reason why knives can cut things is because they’re sharp, unlike say, a tennis ball. It needs to have a defined edge of a particular sharpness in order to cut, otherwise you’re just left with some sort of tear.

I believe the number he gave was "five thousandths", so 5/1000, not 1/5000. If you remember that there are 25.4 millimeters in an inch, you should be able to approximate the conversion in your head pretty easily. (It actually ends up being close to 1/5000 in inches since there's about two factors of 5 in the conversion.)

One note about the process, the voltage actually isn't very high. The wire EDM machines we have at work run at around 40 volts. The amperage is quite high however and would instantly overheat and break the wire if it weren't submerged. You can also stick your hands in the tank while the machine is running with no worries of electrocution because the deionized water is such a good insulator.

I've worked with Mitsubishi Wire Feed edms (FA20S) myself, and I honestly find them very satisfying to work with. I used to primarily program and run the machine for tool & die components, but I loved to find an excuse to whip out the machine for other use cases that conventional machining methods would be difficult. I have far more experience on milling and lathe work now, from anywhere from micro-machining to huge oil and gas components, but its nice to see wire edm in action as it was essentially my roots beginning as a machinist. Thanks for showing off my passion for others to see, I find this stuff fascinating with the history and science of manufacturing, and how it allows humans to make amazing innovations. A few little tidbits I thought I might mention in case you might be reading this: when referring to the .001's place of a millimeter, it is preferred to say "Microns" as it makes you sound smarter, but also it prevents confusion from the imperial "thousandth's" which is commonly used as it's own term. The first type of edm you mentioned, the sinker type, was far more common decades ago as wire feed edm was not advanced enough at the time. While the accuracy of a EDM machines is amazing, they are not the only machines that can reach such levels of repeatable precision even down to +-.005 millimeters, however, they are set apart by the unique features they are able to cut as they exert very little cutting forces, and the difficult to cut materials that they superior at dealing with. Modern diamond tooling solutions try to give other machine tools access to manufacturing these types of extremely difficult to cut materials, such as tungsten carbide, but EDM machines are a tried and true method that many shops still rely on for tool & die or other prototyping manufacturing. Thank you for your informative video, I have not touched a wire edm machine in a year and I honestly miss the joys of working with them, or having your wire break midway through a 18 hour die and accidentally resetting your G54.

I've seen videos of F-22s and B-2s refueling in midair. One of the craziest parts of it is that the port for refueling seems to appear from nowhere. The nature of stealth aircraft is that you really can't have even small ridges otherwise you've compromised your stealth, so the closed port needs to be perfectly hidden with no visible seam. I wonder if it's the same process being used.

Great video. And as a long-time shaver who uses double-edge safety razors, you are absolutely right about Henson Shaving's razors. I have two - AL13 and AL13M - and both are excellent. Extremely good design: if you don't have the right angle, nothing happens. (With most DE razors, if you don't have the right angle, you get a nick.) The Henson Shaving razor is both extremely comfortable and extremely efficient. I do recommend using a good shaving soap and a shaving brush rather than canned foam: that makes a big difference, even with a cartridge razor.

In the 1995 World Rally Championship, Toyota infamously used engineering like this to bypass the FIA mandated turbo air restrictor plate and thus produce significantly more horsepower than their competition. There were internal springs that would open an air gap around the restrictor only once the restrictor was fully installed and the turbo was producing boost pressure. It would close when the engine was at idle/when the restrictor was removed for inspection, making it impossible to spot by the FIA inspectors. Max Mosley, the president of the FIA at the time said this: "It is the most sophisticated and ingenious device either I or the FIA’s technical experts have seen for a long-time. It was so well made that there was no gap apparent to suggest there was any means of opening it.”

This is why cheese is considered a universal language

‘…is 0.005 of a mm, which in inches is a totally different number.’ Love that!

Nice video shot, thanks for sharing it with us, well done :)

I used to work with EDM machines, there's actually a 3rd non submerged machine for burning pockets and other specific shaped holes in a mould using a carbon electrode, where you basically form a pool with special clay and has a constant stream of coolant pumped into it through very small holes drilled into the electrode that's doing the work to remove particles from the pocket. As well has a steady stream of coolant pumped into the pool to keep the electrode submerged.

In a 'former life' worked on EDM machine that was used to remove broken studs from machine blocks etc. I always thought it was amazing how they could 'bore' out the broken stud, large enough to cut the stud from it's own threads (diameter of the thread root) and yet NOT damage the threads cut into the hole of the machine block. Some very precise stuff.

Well, one can cut to tighter tolerances, using similar methods. But, then one has to worry about sticktion, the damned thing welding itself while static and assorted other annoyances.

I wondered the same thing. Thanks for solving the mystery.

Steve. I watched your video because I have always been fascinated by the EDM process. I remember an engineer friend of mine had a 3" cube of metal on his desk. It looked solid but he said look up at it between the ceiling lamp. Sure enough all though it looked solid it had hundreds of holes through it. That was a lump of titanium that had been eroded with EDM rod. Great video but I think it would have benefited from a few pictures of the EDM process where it shows the thousand of sparks going along the wire to best show how the electrical spark generation hits the metal it is cutting. It's an amazing process.

Wire EDM was all the rage in the early 2000's club scene.

Wire erosion _can_ be very accurate, if well calibrated and with the proper settings... I've personally had wire eroded parts delivered well out of tolerance before - it's like any other CNC machine in some respects. One of the really cool things about wire erosion, aside from the sorts of details and features you can make with it, is you can put very neat cuts through incredibly tough materials that traditional machine tools would really struggle with: hardened tool steel, nickel superalloys, tungsten etc.

Quite a bit more advanced than my metal work apprenticeship. Manually machining parts to 0.01mm is fun / therapeutic and also stressful. Looks amazing when you get it right though, invisible interference fit retaining pins etc.

1:46 "You first drill a hole in the cheese, we've all done it" I don't know why but that line & dry delivery made me SCREAM with laughter. Like, we had to pause the video and I had to forcibly calm myself down bc I was starting to scare the cats 🤣🤣🤣

My old man told me the story of his engineers apprenticeship (1930s)when an exam required him to make an octagonal block and octagonal key. His tutors informed him that the finished piece was an incredible 99% mark awarded. He went on to become a principle examiner in the patent office.

These blocks and your old man's apprenticeship reminded me of my apprenticeship, back in 1984! We had to cut a 2 inch cube of steel across the diagonal BY HAND (it took about two weeks!), then hand-finish the surfaces using a technique I don't remember the name of. In the end we had made ourselves a 'lifting block', which still works to this day! As it's kept carefully wrapped in oily paper the surface has been preserved thankfully! Certainly something to hand on to the grandchildren (when they arrive!)
