Internal work takes concentration and prep. Take your time and experiment with plastic so if there is an oops, the tool doesn't loose.

Fantastic video on the Internal Grooves and Angles. Really good content and camera work, and well presented. That blue plastic made it look like I was viewing a 3D CAD part. Most people could figure out about using the compound to cut the angles, but the KEY was your use of the small external counterbore to reference on the second angle. Well done sir! + Thanks for sharing your techniques + I hope you realize the important legacy that your videos impart.

Another great video, Joe. You always present interesting scenarios. However I think my favorite part of your teaching style is that not only do you explain how to do something but explain in excellent detail why you do it a particular way. Knowing why you should do it a certain way is so much more valuable than only knowing how, because then that knowledge can be applied to similar yet different operations. Thank you so much for taking the time to share all your knowledge with us.

Really appreciate the attention to detail Joe. Thanks for spreading the knowledge

Even though so many others have said it, I feel inclined to express my gratitude for your brilliant videos and exemplary teaching methods. Many thanks Joe, and it is also great to be learning stuff from someone on the other side of the planet. It makes the world seem a friendlier place. Best wishes to you and your family.

Looked like hell but I could see what I was doing and it worked. I'm sure you could make a professional looking rig for filming internal work, It helped to see the actual cuts in progress.

Ask for a raise.

Your videos on professional techniques have saved me from a lot of aggravation. They helped me with seeing alternative methods and understanding why what I am doing either did or didn't work. I'm beginning to see even what might or might not work. Deciding what tools a worker really needs vs. luxury vs. Good value vs crud might be a good topic, but as much as I might think it would be valuable, I would ask that you not let it compromise the problem solving and technique content. Often proper machinist logic seems even from my less than a year of experience to answer many questions. I look forward to seeing more of your experience and machinist logic. It comes through in a way that some other internet teachers don't. Maybe it's because you present it in a general manner that applies all over the place. . I've been watching many channels and you're one of the best and the first one I am subscribing to. Please keep it up. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Superb Joe! I cut a blind in between metric and English thread in 8620 steel 4 inches deep and could not see where the tool touched the material, so I used the cross slide dial to get my touch off point, then I plunged the thread and used the customers mating part to get the finish cut. I made the part complete in 3 hours (and it had 2 more external threads and 3 bearing diameters and was 11 inches long) it was not available to the customer even at $6,000.00, so I made 3 of them! What a job!!! The thread diameter was just under 11/16 and fine thread. I would have been much better to make a bore like you did for a measurement! We learn every day Joe! Thanks for all!

@joepie221

Tolerances are OK to play with, but knowing the end use of the part is extremely valuable as well. Too many engineers stack critical tolerances just to hit a required stack height. Expensive and unnecessary.

7 жыл бұрын

That was done in a surface grinder. Although I could do that on a pedestal grinder, it would take a while.

Joe, at 5:20 min I remembered your vidoe of early 2018 about the cosine error. So in this case the lever must me about parallel to the surface of the tip. The angle of the lever to the indicator doesn't matter. It is a lever indicator and thus designed to measure under different angles. You can rotate the lever to adjust it so it is parallel with the measured surface and there will be no cosine error. You know that..! :)

@zHxIxPxPxIxEz

3 жыл бұрын

There will allways be cosine error and deflection. Esspecially with Am indical. This doesn't mean it's inaccurate, however if you have .015 to go I wouldn't dial in .015 Do .0075 and see if it behaves right.

I am making me that indi-cal ! Seems like the ideal tool to get the bore of a model steam engine measured in a very precise manner... A few members of some decent grade steel... a light beadblast, some nickel-plating... and it will look the works ! Thanks Joe, great vid! Paddy

Great job, I learned more with you after 45 years of machining plastic injection mold making and progressive die making and Job shop machining! Love your videos! Would love to know your take on a double lead acme thread internal and external??? Necessary for threads in plastic injected parts using rotating cores and rigid cavities?

@joepie221

I ma honest enough to admit my experience with both multi lead and acme threads is extremely limited. As for the mold...It depends on the machine you plan to put it in. I've seen cam driven rotating cores without threads. I've also seen hydraulic rotating cores. The part geometry is another story. Customer driven usually.

Thank you Joe! Another great video - not only just enjoyable, but I am also learning. Thank you for the introduction to indi-cal. I guess if I were to make it, I could use it as general bore comparator? not just for grooves? Mine is a hobbyist shop and whilst I have external micrometers, measuring the bores accurately is a challenge... without spending a fortune on measuring kit that would be used only occasionally.
