Thanks for sharing your knowledge. This whole playlist was so helpful.

I don't think i'm old "54" but I have ground my own HSS bits since highschool shop. I am used to it and can make a damn near mirror finish on aluminum round bar. I haven't tried the inserts yet but I don't think I really need too. Some of us just get used to our methods and it's difficult to teach us hardheads new ways of doing things. God Bless!

What about the decimal values that dont have a tap drill size next to it on the chart? What is the purpose of those?

Angles to cut on sides boards are 30 degrees and not 22.5; if you call it a Leopold Bench at least afford the man the honor of doing it correctly!🤨

Need to hold the camera still and stop shaking it, use a stand or something!

I absolutely love the fact that the way you recorded this is with someone standing above the desk.

Mr Curry thank you for these lessons on manual mills and lathes. I live in remote Northern Australia and just found your website which is awesome for someone like me who is just starting to learn about how to use lathes and mills. As we are remote there are no ways to learn about these things unless we go to a bigger city like Brisbane, Melbourne or Perth and stay there for 10 week periods to complete a practical course at a TAFE which is very expensive as you would have to pay for accommodation as well as the course fees and meals. Your instruction makes it easy for someone with no experience to learn the basics in using a manual lathe and mill. As we are so remote we have to be able to make as many parts or pieces as possible or wait days or weeks if the wet season is here before we are able to get a part sent to us or alternatively fly to the nearest big city to purchase the part which is also expensive. I would think they have the same problem in Alaska and Siberia where the distance from the nearest city is three or four days travel away if the rivers are not in flood.

how do you know what kind of tools the NC viewer can use? is their a list of tools on the website?

👏👏🙏

That big mighty planer and you just can take one sixteenth off that's crazy

Something I recently discovered is although HSS bits may be _old technology_ they are the _correct_ technology for home machinists. The insert tools are meant for production work using extremely powerful and fast machines. As home machines are neither the hand sharpened HSS bits are actually the preferred tool. This requires _knowledge_ of how to grind such a tool and the grinder to do it on. The insert tools although they do a lesser job don't require either. I've been using the wrong tool for facing off. What you said makes perfect sense too.

Thanks for this. But in my book, there's actually 1 more hidden line to the left of the first center line on the left of the top view.

Good stuff Mr. Curry

How did you get it to run windows on it? I'm looking to buy my first cnc and found one like this for a good price. Would like to upload g code from fusion 360 and via USB upload it to the machine to run the code. Do you also have usb on it ?

Are you on a home screen or under menu?

thankyou very much, I am doing an apparentivery much, I am doing an apparenticeship so your video is vert informative

Looks like a cool place to be.

Please do the entire book. These help so much!

What cool little machine. You did a good tutorial. It would be nice if the machine had an mpg control. Thanks for putting this video on here.

or just learn on youtube....

I learn to use CAD and how to pass my CCNA on my own just a few videos and trial with error I can make threads now and sell parts to Mexico

I like the repair parts and will probably use a few. My question is how do you remove a damaged front bumper to make room for the replacement?

Very cool

Thanks sir it helped me with my maths sea

Thanks for the explanation

Excellent instruction video for using NC Viewer to compose and display pre-written G code. One thing that I would like to know is how to slow down the tool path animation as it goes very fast to easily observe the action. Very useful to be able to move the tool in discreet steps; which I did not know about before viewing this video. Thanks

Or... Just a thought, I could just teach myself for free.

This should he taught in middle school. I didnt even know what cad was till my senior year in high school

american industry needs to be built back up, we need to go back to produce high quality precision products that stand the test of use and time!

Good to see this. Been in the industry for 30 years.

That’s a granite surface plate not a gage block. The gage blocks were behind the surface plate when I shot the video. We do teach the proper way to wring gage blocks and height gages for quick inspection.

Fascinating

I assume this was something for some students for a specific project or machine, way over complicated for something like that. I personally can't stand line numbers, I delete them when I see them. Only use them if needed. Startup line didn't even show G20 and the M0 is for sure aggravating to have right there. For the new hobby people a good startup line would not use G43. A good startup line is G0 G90 G54 G17 G20 then you need the G0 Z1.5 next line you can have G0 X0.0 Y0.0 etc. I'm guessing maybe you were doing a pocket (not sure) but I would back the Y up on the first move before plunging down. Not bashing you at all just seemed over complicated for someone that's new to this. Sadly most new hobbyist try to ignore learning Gcode but on the GRBL controllers it's very simple and we don't use G40 series numbers but instead just calculate where you need the endmill to be.

Thank you! Great tutorial!

This is what a teacher is supposed to be!!!

I’m getting ready for that steep learning curve! lol!

Thanks for explaining my instructor did not ❤

How to making this Gcode without write it manually? I mean like using tools and then just copying the gcode

You should make more videos on old school house plans. I’ve been teaching myself from old house plans I’ve found and recreating home or making my own. I would definitely like to learn more about it.

Thank you!

"You got to consider..."

Great products Brad. Are the front wagon wheels a smaller diameter than the rear? Thanks

🔥🔥🔥

Hi I have an alarm of tool disk position fault how I can solve the problem

I need the hood, the back door and the windshield for the HQ-26

Which controller are you guys using for this machine? Fanuc or Siemens?

Where can I Buy It know 😊😊😊❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

hi Brad are you using the original windows 95 software that cam with the mill?

Thanks so much man very good video

Did this in class with high school students back in the day. Thought about doing it at the college level just as a fun exercise.
