Be sure you know exactly what everything does before you operate it, can be dangerous if not. Did my engineering apprenticeship on lathes and vertical borers back in the 70s. Good luck Julian.
You wanted some pointers - as a rule use the thumb to play the bottom three stings and cover the top three strings with your index, middle and ring fingers. Much easier. Although it is a rule you need to be prepared to break under some circumstances. P.S. When I say top and bottom I'm talking in terms of pitch obviously.
A lot of brass contains lead(added so that it can be machined more easily), which is toxic to human. I would rather not use brass for such applications unless 100% sure about it being pure copper+zinc.
Try changing you feed and speed you might just be in material resonance window for work material or your machine and on the triangle carbide tool try finishing with a very light reverse pass. Cut in with the tool to center. Then pressure the tool in 1 or 2 thousands and start your reverse scratch finish. Let me know if this works for ya
Thanks for the feedback! Just curious, what is a material resonance window? By the name I would assume that it has something to do with vibrations caused in the machining process, causing it to have a nasty finish…but I have to admit I’m not sure… Thanks again for the feedback, it is really appreciated:)
@julianmenard different materials vibrate more dramatically at specific frequencies so if your chatter at a certain rpm matches one of those frequencies closely your vibration/chatter will get significantly worse. Try slowing the tool speed and using the rotation speed a fraction and be sure your total cut rate is below the cutting tools max
@@VRBear That is very interesting, I’ll try different speeds and feeds, I had no idea that different materials vibrated at different frequencies, very interesting!!! Thank you very much and I will let you know how it goes:)
I’m not entirely sure, I went to my local supplier, I think it may be 4140 or hotter rolled, it’s not proving to be a nice material to use…I’m taking all sorts of depth of cut, so no particular number I’m afraid, honestly just trying to find something that works:/
@@julianmenard try a slower RPM for that diameter, maybe 300-450? Or even slower? But I can tell from how it’s got that gummy sort of texture or surface it won’t machine nicely. I’m only an apprentice fitter and turner but we get some crap mild steel at trade school that machines exactly like that. You might just have to deal with it and use sandpaper or emry cloth to try get a better finish
I dont know much about your problem but you seem enthusiastic about your project and im sure youll get to the bottom of it, good luck my friend, commenting to add traction to your video
Salut !! C'est super ce que tu fais ! Bosse bien la justesse de tes bends (les tirés), on est tous passés par la ! :) Surtout n'abandonne pas et super choix de chanson par ailleurs !!
Take face mill have welded up then bench back to shape may need run tap thru threads best to put screws in before weld tell welder stay away from threads use new inserts use height gage to get inserts all same level then bring dia in all tool die shop have polishers usually one those guys will be skilled at getting tool corrected
I pinballed a part when i was in school. I could feel the heat rising up my neck and my face turning red. I stopped the machine and turned around to find my teacher standing there. He said, "dont worry, thats why we are here. Do your crashing at school." Never banged up a machine again! (the last part is a lie)
Imagine a pinball bouncing around in a pinball machine. Part leaves fixture/vise... and becomes a pinball. It happens, but usually only once when proving something out. Learning...
We all been there, just don't get too frighten by this event that can cause to be panic when machining. As long as you didn't crash machine that it needs repairs you all good. It's a great lesson for a trainee to more think outside of the box. How did I do setup, is it rigid enough? Also for beginners I would try to avoid using facemills since they are big tools. Wish you good luck.
Well yes and no, it would have a specified torque if we were doing this as a business but at school we just tighten it. The clamps used were mitee bites. (A company name for side profile type clamps)
Don't feel bad. Where I work, we're always having fixture issues, new people loading parts and underpowered torque guns so this type of thing is nearly daily. Poor face mill, but it happens. We've had multiple of those wear down past the insert screws just because a part popped out of place and the mill kept on chugging
Well done. It's nice to see that there are some young people interested in real music, where they actually play instruments. So tired of seeing Taylor Swift and the like clogging up the airwaves with that cookie cutter brand of garbage pop music, if I dare to call it music. Merry Christmas my friend. That's a beautiful Gibson SG btw.
Also I very much agree a lot of the new “music” is just rubbish. No feel to it. No passion to it if you get what I mean. They didn’t spend hundreds of hours mastering their instruments just some yankee in a studio with auto tune…oh well must keep the classics alive 🎸
I'm a beginner guitar player starting to learn Paranoid solo! It's awesome to see other guitar players progress, how long have you been playing guitar for? Rock on!
