    Probably he was feeding aggressively with a single insert chamfer tool for speed. Doesn't really matter, but if you're programming you could add a G04 dwell… Or just increase your RPM way higher and slow your feed. He's probably using the the wrong SFM for that tool and going through chamfer inserts like crazy.

    Most people have to pay quite a bit of money to get a thorough look at their product like that. Especially with so much knowledge to help make a better product and recommendations on manufacturing as well

    Preface — AvE, I love your vidjeos!
    I know this is a 4 years old video, but I felt a comment was needed.
    The offset you were seeing on the chamfer of the threaded holes is due to the cut of the thread lead-in not being a concentric circle to the chamfer tool (i.e. spot drill).
    Threads will always appear to be off-center when they are actually perfect.

    Please keep the BOLTR series running, and your .. well .. you know .. in a vise!

    Please do 2 new shows. Part 1: the history of Bridgeport mills, (and do you have one). Part 2: an explanation of how hard is it to buy used one and getting it going. And what they cost? What is the general range. I would prefer to buy a turnkey so they deliver it, they set it up, and they guarantee / warranty it, and they turn it on and make the first few cuts. Those two shows would get a lot of views. The third vajeyo in the series could explain the good and bad of buying a Bridgeport (and maybe eventually a lathe). Versus slower type cost CNC like your HAAS. This series of 3 vids would be a great service to your people, and also surely more who will come. Thanks. -Douglas from Minneapolis

    Build cool shit put it in the internet. Get told where you went wrong by a pair of hands.

    But is it centered in the shaft when mounted is what really matters

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars The Welfair Shop says:

    They defintly don't work with a flat washer under them. Defintly a fail on their part

    Don't have to be pretty, straight, or fancy.! It's a drawbar wrench!

    I'd suggest replacing that broomstick handle with a right angle attachment that goes vertical to the top. Then, a little connector mounted to the top to turn it into a thumb actuated trigger.
