Great Video, I have you on linkedin but I did not know you had youtube channel. Thank you for making concise and direct points, all sounded like it was very good information and I plan to use some of it!

Thanks for the video. Helped me out.

Not knocking you, but i could've programmed that whole part in 10 minutes with Fusion 360, without editing and adding anything, and knowing nothing will go wrong from editing something wrong.

dope stuff my man!!!!

Ayuda,cómo sacas X0,Y0 en tres puntos en un diámetro interno

I'm on it

I have been in this industry for more than 20 years, can we make friends?

Is that a Kirkland Signature toolbox???

I know this is an old video, but I just bought a small machine, and have been CNC machining and have done some conventional stuff. I just want to start off slowly, even if it's crafts and hobby items for people and sites like Xometry. I am going to do that, because I really don't want to finance anything, It'll take much longer, but I know how to program, and run the thing, and the day with automation I am hoping in 10-15 years, I can have a automation Okuma cell that I can run along with my 3-4 axis. Would that be better to do it, than having to hire people I know I could get a business loan, and potentially get that robotic Okuma cell in a few years, but I want to get the experience as a business woman, since I got the machining and programing experience with Mastercam, fusion. I'm just scared to fail, and I think it'll give me better time and even more machining experience.

Where'd you disappear lately bud?

Sir I have trub and center less greanding machine any job for work me please 🙏

I have a fadal 3016 fanuc control, I have a problem with the fourth axis, I mean the A axis, when I want to record letters in a cylinder runs the first line of the program, and to make the change in the angle rotates the axis completely 180 degrees to make the angle change.

Great point, but I would also consider the fact that even if you own the building, you still need to pay taxes. Portion of your monthly rent is going to something you would have to pay regardless of owning the building or not. Additionally if you are a growing shop, you have the flexibility to move into a larger space. Probably the best setup would be to build a workshop on your personal property on land that has lower value outside a city. Then again access to 3 phase power then becomes the issue. Good video topic.

Where can I purchase a pommel like that? Can you make me one? I am restoring a Case XX 337 quartermaster from World War II and I cannot find anything that matches the original. If you have any ideas on how I could find one or have one made let me know please.

I’ve been running Cnc and manual lathe for 7 years now, recently moved to a small town, and picked up a little manual hardinge. Trying to start my own shop from nothing, and it’s hard this video has helped but I’m still lost on how I can find customers to cold call, to get things going. I’m hoping by winter I’ve got at least 2 customers I can be turning parts for

I was watching a newbie trying to indicate his vise, kind of watching over his shoulder for a good 20 minutes. What drew my attention was the banging he was doing with his deadblow. Finally I came over and asked if he wanted help. Turns out he was trying to dial in his vise while both sides were tightened, smacking the shit out of it and then moving to the opposite side and repeating. After asking him wtf he was doing he told me our supervisor had told him to do it that way. Needless to say I felt really underpaid after learning what a dumbass my supervisor is.

You didn't mention the work stop that is in the kit. It's mounted on the right side just behind the handle. This work stop fits in the groove on the top of the rear clamping surface. It's small, easy to miss if you are not looking for it.

any one have a sodick post processor?

time to clean the shop up

You ever gonna post again?

No amount of debt or financial pressure will deter me from buying that used tool. You gotta shoot at the unicorn🦄when it appear. Disclaimer:Do not ever take financial advice from me.

Let’s Not..!!!

Absolutely agree man, you must either have specialized experience or better yet, design and sell your own product. Don't try to compete with other general shops.

Thx MEN, helped me a lot :)

more videos please

I have a 5x12 cnc router and I know how to use it... but not sure what to focus on! Ive made a kitchen (cabinets) with one in the past and also a bass guitar that came out quite nice... just not sure which direction to go now or where to get the work!

We are Fanuc guys 👦❤💙🙌😎😀 please help.

I have that problem all the time.

I just got a "new to me" milltronics partner 3D running Cinturion V and I have only used it in in JOG lol. I noticed in the software it had DNC listed. I'm hoping that means I can use some software and drip feed into this old 3 axis. I'd love to see this thing cut using all auto generated g-code.

To add on to my previous comment this goes for all aspects of running any business. If your business is selling paint and you have poor lighting because it was cheaper you will end up with unhappy customers that complain the product looked different than advertised.

always always always buy once cry once. I am trying to beat that into my bosses head right now. He keeps picking up Shars calipers and what not. Well the Shars calipers last 6 months before they are junk, my Starrett dial caliper is 10 years old and still functions as if it was brand new. If he would just spend the money on quality tools he would save in the long run.

I completely agree with sticking to some standard and not getting involved in a race to the bottom! Absolutely agree! Those shops charging $30 to $40 / hr are going to crash and burn!

If you think people are embellishing their resume's just take a look at their hands. That is huge tell on their level of experience.

very sound advice! I totally agree! :)

I've watched a bunch of your videos and just now finding out that your basically a neighbour, I'm in Alliston! Great to see the shop 👍

Thanks you. Awesome video

If you had to estimate what China or whatever country with very cheap labour is charging as a shop rate for their machines what would it be? Like for a 3 axis mill or 2 axis lathe. I realise their employees earn bugger all but I wonder what the machine rate is approximately.

You should get a Mitsubishi. Much better machine and you wont have to deal with split guides and threader tubes. Mitsubishi has the best wire threader hands down.

This is a really great video Ian! I appreciate how clearly you lay out the options for new machinists in a way that's not too complicated or irrelevant. Great work, looking forward to more of your content!

Looks great, nice job. Used to do something similar on our Wire, we have a Fanuc W1, and sometimes with deep slots like that a WEDM is really useful. I know it's slow but you can always go and do something else while it is running to offset the time. I don't have powered Z though, would really like to have that option.

Veey helpful insights. Appreciate your video!🤝

Hi, I am an entrepreneur and I am in need of a machine for my micro factory. How do I get in touch with you.

I have never seen the multiple vise approach. If you are machining a long part holding the part in multiple vises, you must be indicating the back wall of each vise along the X travel of the machine. How do you accomplish this?

you need to chain all cuts together that will get rid of 3 wire cut and thread

Awesome shop, thanks for the tour. Great content!

GREAT Video. Realistic and useful information. Cool delivery of using your own personal sales experience, doesn't get any more real world than that.

CNC cut and create

I have better measuring tools at my home shop than i do at my 9 to 5. I guess l know where my priorities are.

When I get to work, the first thing I say is ", Good morning. "
