Camphor is an oil. Chamfer is to create a flat edge. Good video.

not sure if you check the comments but every time i make the cutter when i close it disappears. I changed background color just in case its hidden. when i click on model it comes up as combo view but disappears soon as i try to work with it. any suggestions ? like the video just stuck . thanks.

Where is a good place to get the dimensions for diffent threads ?

[@willstandley6847]

Wikipedia is one place. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Thread_Standard

[@BigGoad]

Machinery Handbook is a great place too. And it's something you don't need the internet for! I bought a pretty old one for 20 dollars or so. Most of that information doesn't change enough to matter for hobby use

[@jayg4424]

What was the point of hiding the head and doing the chamfer and threading again? Why not just skip to changing the position of the head on the x axis?

[@willstandley6847]

I wanted to remove the chamfer from the hex head end of the shaft and the video shows how I chose to do it. I'm sure there are other ways to to this but I did it this way and it worked.

[@LeAdri1du40]

You don't need to delete everything and start over, could have just double clicked on the chamfer to edit it, and deselect the face you don't want chamfered anymore.. Tada🎉
