@Turbulent6379 @titangilroy Great question! In this video, Travis is actually using an ink pad soaked in oil. A thin layer of oil is being applied to the gage blocks to ensure they wring properly.

@VE3GTM @titangilroy Yes, it started as a fun project idea. Donnie machined some really cool little trinkets on the Tornos machines- one of my favorites was the mini finger skateboard.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@VE3GTM @titangilroy Thank you for your question. Since this is a novelty item, ±0.002” was determined to be a reasonable tolerance.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@MasanMobile @titangilroy Correct, we do not dilute this cutting fluid. Diluting Blaser Blasogrind GTM 10 can compromise the viscosity, lubrication, filtration efficiency, and overall grinding performance it was specifically engineered to deliver.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@titangilroy It’ll buff out. 😆

@zhavronkov_ws @titangilroy Thank you for your question! Yes, we have featured insert mills in our videos, including Kennametal’s Dodeka Shell Mill, 7792 High Feed Mill, HARVI Ultra 8X, 4-12 KT Shell Mill, and more.

@Ease_Up_Turbo @titangilroy The metric values are listed in the tool description box.

@XiaomiZhaWei @titangilroy Thank you for your feedback- you’re absolutely right! This was machined from 1018 steel.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@titangilroy Here to answer common questions about this video! 😁

⚙️1018 steel is being machined.

⚙️This features Kennametal’s Harvi II TE end mill (not their GOmill PRO).

⚙️The Harvi II TE solid carbide endmill features KCPM15A and KSCM15A multilayer coatings.

@AI_ENGIN33R @titangilroy Thank you for your question! This is a Tyrolit silicon carbide grinding wheel (GC 320 J8 V4, 16×3×35).
Tyrolit specially formulated premium grinding and cutting wheels that use sharp, specialized abrasive grains and a cool-cutting bond to reduce loading, heat, and clogging.

@titangilroy If you’re wondering, these magna vises came from Magna-Lock USA.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@titangilroy For those wondering, HAIMER offers specialized grinding wheel adapters designed specifically for Walter grinding machines- shown in the video is a Walter grinding wheel adapter HSK-C50.

@Kyle_Binkeys @titangilroy This isn’t AI. It’s a video played in reverse- an editing function that’s been around long before AI existed.

@BishopAerospace @setzer_barry Email me anytime at [email protected] to set up a date & time to tour the facility. If it works better for your schedule, we hope you can join us at Boombastic 26 this year- packed with nonstop machine demos, time to hang out with our team, and more! https://t.co/8501NfuROj

@rightorrightnow @titangilroy Thank you for your comment. The YCM C10 is equipped with CAT-40 taper spindle. Barry just makes it look like magic. 😁🪄

@FLeijon85 @titangilroy This is a deep sea pump shaft. Turning is used for roughing, while grinding is used for finishing. Grinding delivers precision, surface finish, & roundness needed for high-pressure, corrosive underwater environments, helping prevent seal failures, vibration, & premature wear.

[Sara @smarte_17]

@Robert40480050 @titangilroy You’re lucky- I’ve run into this issue when working with small turning centers that have limited machine space and tooling options available in the shop. A Mazak Quick Turn 8 is a good example.
