Hi Tony, hint from across the pond (UK) ..if you get a hard spot in a drill hole in any material and just want to remove it without having to buy a carbide drill or chance ruining one, then use a cheap masonary bit. Just grind the edge as a normal drill on a green wheel BUT also grind the flute face flat (so it presents an almost square edge to the work) this makes the cutting edge incredibly strong and robust. Once youve cleared the hard spot you can return to normal drills again. I always keep a good selection of masonary drills in the workshop for this purpose as its quick and saves a fortune :)

The drill bit in the tailstock to catch the parted pieces is genius.

If I ever get stranded in the wilderness, I am going to use T O T instead of S O S.

The depth of the cut is wholly dependent on.... 1. the diameter of the part 2. the type/profile of the thread pattern 3. the material being used This is not the exact answer you were looking for, but there is an engineering specification manual that's constantly referred to by tot that can provide you the information needed. Also, quite often tot flashes the page of specifications he is using from that manual. It's quick and easily missed but often it is there. Hope this helps somewhat.

This comment coming to you on 1/17/2020. I came back to re-learn how to read a caliper. I've looked everywhere, but this video set the standard for how I can learn it. And I completely am writing this comment in the tone of voice used in the video. Amazing.

OK, so the combination of the actual usefulness of the content (100 out of 100) and the quality of the stand-up (or sit-down) comedy that content comes packaged in is out of this world. Huge respect!

It is actually VERY easy to anodize TiAl6V4 properly. All you need is a bench power supply going up to approximately 60V DC and you can just use Coke as an Electrolyte because it contains phosphoric acid. Hang a strip of stainless steel or even titanium into a container filled with Coke and your titanium workpiece too. Connect the strip of metal to the negative terminal of your power supply and the workpiece to the positive. Apply around 30V for a nice blue finish, a little less will result in a nice golden finish. (Don't drink the Coke afterwards because it now contains dangerous stuff!). Also, if you need bigger titanium cutoffs, just send me an address where to ship them😉. Greetings from Germany

Depends on what you are aiming to do with the annealing... You can make it absurdly hard and tough, for knives, yes. But there isn't a way I know of to soften it back to the original "white" state that it arrives in from the forge. Your best bet is to use Diamond/Carbide cutting tools, prevent work-hardening the surface (when it discolors), and avoiding high temps of the workpiece, and tools. Work-hardened Ti is literally just as hard as Tool Steel, and "white" Titanium is marginally softer. Feeds, speeds and cooling are crucial

I learned ALOT from this! Now! The Future!! Abom does modeling on the side.

We have to be able to read vernier scaled instruments for our A-level physics exams in the UK, some of my class mates don't understand them and your explanation is the best I've heard. I will be showing them this video.

i have been enlightened by your explanation of the calipers. i am a glass blower and i frequently need the hundreds of a mm for extremely thight fits and ground glass joints/ball joints to ensure high thightness. since my electronic one failed, i resorted back to buying normed pieces but now i can use the other calipers i have lying around anyway. thanks man!

Man. I love this channel. I’m here because you left a comment on AvE’s channel! Currently watching you’re entire back catalogue. Great content Sir.

Vermeer was a Dutch Baroque Period artist. Vernier is a method of subdividing linear increments invented by French mathematician Pierre Vernier. And the next thing we hear will be the sounds of TOT being fitted into Abom's Monarch 6-jaw and having his bung threaded.

i believe the 6 jaw is on the victor lathe rather than the monarch

8:36 for Titanium I always use HSS-E drills, after I burnt a normal HSS drill much like you did up. With the Cobalt you can easily use it up to 450°C without a lot of damage. Even though they cost about twice as much, they are certainly worth it. Especially when you want to drill everything with a single set of drills.

Seriously? Twice the cost is still saving me money, since I go through 2 drill bits on each friggin hole. I'm going to find some good HSS-E bits and try them. Thank you sir.

I didn't realise that anyone was insane enough to try using HSS on titanium in the first place.

I have a few HSS-E drills that I use with stainless steel, they're great. However I'm unable to get odd sizes locally, I currently need one for pre-drilling holes for cutting M5 threads.

@@etheroar6312 Thanks, I would but I'm not in North America and even if they deliver here the postage would likely be crazy. I dare say I can get one locally but haven't got around to it yet as the job's for me so isn't urgent.

I was just reminded by Aaron of the flask occurrence! Not only are these Tony videos fantastic learning tools, but it reinforces Tony's ranking of "Master of Ink cap" within the writer's guild. Really great video!

I managed an implantable pump project some years ago. It included a Ti bulkhead with complex machined spaces that provided mounting surfaces for electronics, a peristaltic pump head, a stepper motor, and valves. It was CMC machined on a large block with 32 blanks on each of its 4 sides in a lights out facility. The tool speeds and pressures we so high that the metal was almost liquified ahead of the tool The CNC machine was a large as a single car garage and the process was amazing to watch. The tool magazine contained various configurations of formed tools and relatively standard cutters. The machine knew the longevity of each tools and replaced them in the library with new ones when necessary. This started my interest in machining.

Today I finally learned how to measure on calipers I already own 2 pairs of.

John Possum: Good! Now start marking out stuff with the tips of the calipers, so that you no longer need to pay attention to the vernier's markings.

TOT. Thank You! Made a simple (very) titanium wedding band for my wife for 18 year anniversary. She's an active woman and keeps losing stones from the engagement and wedding band. She wanted something tough and streamlined. Watched this vid maybe 4-5-6 times before i chuckled the rod in the lathe. Kept having to rewind, i was laughing so hard. "Reamed your Bung". Classic. Thanks again for sharing your talent, humor, and expertise. Btw, she loved it. Bonus points for Hubby

I didn't see Abomb in cut offs!! No I didn't LMAO. Thanks for the giggles and the great "Tape #21".

Hey Professor This Old Tony from STF University your lessons on internal thread, vernier calipers and high speed steel were amazing. And really liked that other type of job shop cutoff.

Loved this! One of my favorite This Old Tony videos ever

Memories come flooding back; me and dad watching these video tapes together. I also remember recording Falcon Crest onto one for mum. They were so angry, but mum was happy to not miss the episode.

I appreciated the style. Reminiscent of science instructional films from Welcome Back Kotter. Tell your buddy to weld his ti parts together, clean and anodize at 25-30 volts for a nice blue /purple ( blurple- for those in the anodizing biz) Nice work as usual TOT!😃👍

That caliper tutorial was really good. I just learnt how to use them. Thank you!

Never understood the Vennear scale til now! Thank you sir!

Just got my first lathe, craftsman 12”. After watching all of your videos I have learned a lot. Made a t nut on my buddies milling machine for my compound to mount a bxa tool holder, using your squarer squares video. Last night I made my upcoming wedding band out of titanium. You were right, the chips can go up like a tinderbox. Came out beautiful.

I've seen the aftermath of a titanium swarf fire.... cost two industrial lathes, melted the concrete pad, melted the concrete ceiling, took something like 4 hours to 'extinguish' ....you don't put that fire out with water, CO2, foam, PKP.....you just sit back and wait till its done. May as well toss magnesium at it.

need a class D fire extinguisher, we have them at the machine when cutting titanium at my work. Its fun to take a couple small thin string chips and light them up with a cig lighter, or put a piece of scrap on a belt sander. Lights up like a sparkler.

Mate, it’s 5:00am in Australia and I’ve got work in 4 hours....what are you doing to me? I’ll only have time to watch this video a couple of times before I have to head off.
