Doesn't matter what anyone says it's your shop, you set it up however you want!! Love it congrats!

I've been watching your channel for years and that newly milled big block of steel means a lot to me (and I suspect others) also!

I have never heard of belt conditioner before, I think I might be buying some of it now!👍🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍

Wow, that belt conditioner works way better than I thought it would.

You’ve come a long way Adam, your father and grandfather would be proud and amazed at your accomplishments. Your future looks bright, I’m excited for your journey.🔥🔥💯✅

It's so exciting to see you slinging chips in your new shop! God bless, Adam!

As a retired electrician that has worked on , troubleshoot and performed PM' s on hundreds of VFD'S surprised they do not eliminate the pulleys & belt and get into the 21st century and install a drive. Do not think any inspectors in my location would ever approve a cord to feed a permanent in place machine.. Sooner or later cord will get damaged. Appears you can not do a ceiling drop to feed power due to crane so best practice is to run heavy wall conduit on top of standard 1 5/8" deep unistrut so yoh can still clean chips off floor. Place I worked for had cords like this until OSHA came in and we got tons of overtime fixing code violations. Pay me now or pay me a lot more later. Good luck on your nice shop.

Wow, that CRC spray is amazing. Made a HUGE difference.

And today Adam showed to all of us a miraculous belt spray 😮😮👌👌

Your videos are always a treat Adam!!!

You should put some of the chips from your first cuts in some clear resin and have it as a paper weight for the office😄

Great intro for you and us to the new Mill. It was funny watching you make a T-Nut! That was one of my first projects about 10 years ago and I was sooooo proud! And I still am LOL. Thanks for the nice memories!

Congrats for the first chips in your new shop. Take some of the chips , put them in a little glass and place that in a good place for your new shop.

"The first mess on the floor!" Great! Greg

That high frequency whine from the power feed tells me that even with my tinnitus, I haven't - yet - lost as much of my hearing as my wife claims I have... ;)

I always tell my wife, “I’m not deaf. I’m ignoring you.” Rarely makes the situation better. 😂

Metal swarf is the natural predator of plastic-coated electrical cables. I suggest that cords on the floor need metal covers (with sloping sides so that they are not trip hazards).

How nice to have a machine that nobody else has abused. Imagine being able to keep the ways clean and oiled and not be full of gaulling.

I'm impressed that the spray seemed to have an effect even when applied to to outside of the belt only.

Yes, I noticed. Amazing stuff. Weill be ordering some cans.

Wow, I've never heard of belt dressing spray before. I've have an Ajax AJT-1 for a few years (not remotely new, unfortunately), and the belt has always made a rubbery noise. Thanks for the tip - I'm about to order some. I'm surprised a new machine with an X axis power feed has that handle type. I swapped mine for a round handle when I filled my Align X axis feed, as the original handle style (like yours) so close to the power feed housing looked like a trapped hand waiting to happen.

Nice that the table was constructed nuts on. Gives one confidence the rest of the machine was built well. Congrats again on the new equip and shop.

Hey Adam I would have just used the Walter face mill for those initial side cuts on the T slot, that end mill was sticking out a lot, and had a lot of load on just the tip. Once you were shoulder milling, you could tell the cutter was loaded up and giving a better cut with less vibration. Awesome videos as always.

Wow... I had no idea that belt dressing stuff actually works. Congrats on getting it up and running Adam!!

Try the carbide in a solid holder. They are usually run in shrink fit holders to my knowledge. It seems to me like the collet holder is what’s making the noise, it doesn’t sound or appear like actual chatter at the cutting faces. That would be visible in surface finish and usually would change depending on your feeds and speeds. The rigidity of the cutter is vibrating the arms of the collet since the end mill itself has very little ability to deflect and absorb those resonances.

@Kc12v140

You can test this by making a side milling pass with the carbide and with a similar hss end mill. Then make a spring pass and measure the difference. The carbide should have substantially less deflection, even in the collet holder.

Excellent Adam u deserve all the success in the world

Adam, I hope i might help. First, carbide endmills love strong grip. Er collets just don't cut it most of the time, ive had better results even with weldon style holders. About the speeds and feeds, it is a range, carbide can take far greater and far lower speeds and feeds even than the recommended range. Carbide loves pressure so increasing the feed per tooth would help to stabilise it. Try not to run it in the middle of the part like you did here. Take deeper but side cuts. I think you had chatter here for several of these reasons. Best of luck to you sir.

Very cool to see all the first cuts.

Congratulations!!!

I've been watching your channel for quite some time now and this vid had me grinning from ear to ear. Congratulations mate.

Great job. Love seeing the new shop grow.

Winner...Winner...Chicken Dinner. Slow but sure..you'll get there Adam.

I'M loving your new shop!!

I love the new shop and all of the new tooling! Keep up the good work.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

WITH THE NEW SHOP AND NEW MACHINERY, I sure hope there is going to be some interesting new jobs to work on.

Great to see you working in the new shop, enjoy your new tools

I am a guitar maker, not even a machinist. But I think i speak for everyone here- I really enjoy seeing your successes Adam. You give so much to your trade. Kuddos!!

as a hobby machinist and cnc operator, I play guitar and the precision to build quality guitars is not much less. Not to mention, If I scrap a piece of metal I just grab another piece and keep going, If you scrap a piece of work it could ruin the whole project. Nice guitars you got going there too.

You make the adventure fun. Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations, Adam!!! First chips - Awesome!

It looks like a standard carbide end mill. Try a variable helix end mill. All big name brands make them. They reduce chatter so you can climb cut on that mill. Can't wait to see that lathe make chips!

I love new toys. I'm not a machinist, but I've run an ancient Bridgeport a few times, and I'm jealous!

Awesome can't wait to see all the things you'll be turning out here congratulations Adam and Abby

Congratulations!

Great progress.

Congrats on the new shop! Good to see it coming together.

Congrats on the new setup Looking good

That new mill looks superb. Fun to watch the tramming in.

Congrats on ur new shop. Good to see ur growing some, nice setting

Love all your old tools. Grandpa is smiling every time you pull his old stuff out.

Great to see it all starting to come together Adam. That mill is awesome!

Nice of you to share Adam! I always appreciate your fine work!

That new mill is looking and sounding good. Thanks for sharing Adam.

Kewl Beans! That belt would probably have quieted down on its own with a little use, but belt dressing never hurts!

Looking good Adam. Enjoy your videos. Thanks

KBC looked good, nice! Thanks👍

Cool, glad you shared that with us.

Awesome stuff 👍🏼

the 300 SFM was not for full width slotting, that speed would be for 1.5 times depth of cut with a 25% of diameter radial depth. For full width slotting cut feed in half, cut speed down to 60% and no more than 1 times diameter depth of cut.

That belt conditioner spray is amazing.

Nice to share in your excitement!

Happy to see first-chips day at the new shop.

Congrats on your first shop chips. A memorable day in your journey. Best wishes from UK 👏

Keep it. It makes for fond memories

Congratulations! A joy to watch "as is tradition (r)Quinn".

nice,first chips, first parts.

There are metal covers for floor cords, tapered on the sides and then a small flat area on top. They make various angled "corners" to get around and through things. I hate the plastic/rubber ones, they don't stay where they are put. Ok for temporary placements but that's all. I guarantee you will like the metal one better than a wild cord on the floor.

I think even the plastic ones shall be good enough. Btw, back in the old days, where shops were built, cables were run in conduits under the floor.

This is so much fun. I was giddy using my new vise so I can't imagine using a new mill too.
