The making of TheCrafsMan's Pocketnaut mold is part 1 of two parts of a collaboration between myself, LNS Technologies, and TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin. In part 1, I walk through making the mold for the body (the orange section in the thumbnail). Part 2 will cover the mold for the face inserts.
This mold is intended for the LNS Model 300A: www.techkits.com/products/mod...

A top notch video and a perfect example of a manufacturing collaboration done right. We need more of this within the small scale manufacturering ecosystem. Desktop manufacturering can be a truly frustrating endeavour due to having so many potentially great project ideas,yet no way to actually get them manufactured. Very much looking forward to the follow up in part 2. Stroke of genius with the undercut mould insert,It just go to show that with a little ingenuity most manufacturing obstacles can be overcome.

Thank you. I have used inserts before, but I think this is the first time I used a press-fit that required this level of precision. It was very satisfying and gives me the confidence to do this more often.

Would it be a good idea to provide a way for the trapped air to escape when you press in the insert?

That's a good point. It probably would have been a good idea to drill a hole through to the back. Thanks for the suggestion.

Nice colab... We get all the process from different content creators... This was a very nice job, john. ... Also nice timing from both of you... For info. It would be nice to go in to detail, regarding controlling (hold time)speed and pressure..also the limitation of your pneumatic compressor and so on.
@JohnSL
@JohnSL Год назад
There isn't much to it. For pressure, if you have too much, you'll get flash or a blow out. If you don't have enough, it will be a short shot. As to holding time, It's usually not that long as the gate will often freeze after a few seconds. But clamping time might need to be longer to let the part cool enough. In other words, trial and error... As to the compressor, I'm using a 5 gallon, 225 psi Dewalt compressor. Works great for these small machines, and allows me to go up to 140psi to the ram. Most compressors kick in to refill the tank at pressures below 140psi. I rarely go that high, but some molds with thin parts require that.

Well Done John! Impressive surface finish. I always wonder how you manage to mold without venting. I find it very hard to mold without including a substantial vent on my manual desktop IM
@JohnSL
@JohnSL Год назад
I go back and forth on adding vents. In this case, both the TPE and PP flow easily, so vents are not critical. For ABS, it would probably be much more important.

How much did this specific mold cost the customer? I ask because it is impressive how they treat this type of information as a state secret! For enthusiasts like me, having no idea of costs makes everything quite frustrating when analyzing entry into this type of activity. Thanks!

Hello John! Do you think it would be feasible to make a mold of about this size and quality, without the complications due to the overhang etc, using a hobby-tier CNC machine? I live in a very remote place where logistics about double the price of many niche hobby products for us and I'm seriously considering learning milling to produce some simple things for the community locally.

How do you handle the crazy stickout of your endmill at 7:28? Looks to be greater then 4x the diameter, aren't you worried about tool deflection at that point?
@JohnSL
@JohnSL Год назад
Yea, especially the super-long reach 1/32" end mill. It's about 1/2" long, which means over 16X. The trick is that I use G-Wizard to calculate feeds and speeds, and it has a deflection calculator I use to ensure deflection isn't an issue.

Is the water cooling really necessary for aluminum milling, even if I go super slow?
@JohnSL
@JohnSL Год назад
While it's called a coolant, it's primary purpose is to act as a lubricant. Aluminum is a "sticky" material and tends to lead to chip welding. In other words, the chips tend to stick to the end mill. The coolant both washes the chips away and reduces this tendency. It's actually a lot more important for aluminum than steel for that reason.
