perfect toy to scratch glass table
Yeah, I really wish i could see these rolling over a lighted glass sheet.
or any kind of table
Perfect toy to scratch anything really
Dude just made the smallest diamond tipped drill(?) I've ever seen
Break* if you throw it down hard enough while trying to spin it the diamond tip gonna go straight through
the most inefficient way to center punch
fun*
But you gotta give points for style
"My Dad is ill"
"And I have not job and money"
"TH-cam not giving me views"
"I want to handle my family"
Yalm worse than others"😭

Help ur dad who isn’t even ill
Get a job and earn money
TH-cam won’t give views to beggars
Support your family don’t handle them
They are scary when they don't stop
Nolan is smart Arsse
It’s like you don’t know what’s real anymore
Are you talking about simps?
You should give ruby a try. Rubies are chosen for CMM tools as the stone is one of the only self lubricating materials on the planet. Much better than diamond. Might spin for longer :).
If I ever get a lathe I'll probably just spend all my time and money on cutting and polishing brass parts. It's so damn pretty.
0:27 Not the worst signature I've ever seen.
Whats the worst?
its wasn't a signature, he was just showing u how sharp it was XD

A few years ago I have been asked to make a spinning top with a diamond tip.
The aim was to have very long spin times, because diamond has a very low coefficient of friction.
I made various tests and it turned out that if the pointed tip is harder than the spinning surface, the tip digs a microscopic hole
in the spinning surface, during the spin, this increases the tip friction, and reduces the spin time.
Also, the top spinning in the microscopic hole tends to wobble, (nutation).
So my conclusion was that a pointed tip harder than the spinning surface is not desirable, if longest spin times are wanted.
But a diamond spinning surface would be interesting.
I tried a polycrystalline diamond spinning surface; it didn't work well;
polycrystalline diamond is binded diamond powder, it is apparently smooth, but also slightly abrasive, with a poor coefficient of friction.
Monocrystalline diamond would be needed. Unluckily monocrystalline diamond can't be shaped concave, which is needed for a spinning surface.
So I had to give up and I never used diamonds in my spinning surfaces, (nor in my tops).
Nice
Why don't you try making the diamond a sphere, like they do with ruby for other tops?
@@TheStrvggler, it would be interesting, but it seems that it is impossible to shape a diamond like a sphere, or concave. Have you ever seen a diamond ball ?
What if a flat surface but spinning ina a way to make it concave or a balancing mechanism?
@@A11V1R15 , this might be interesting, but I don't know how it could be made exactly. Maybe a computer could drive the movements of the flat diamond surface for to keep the spinning top on it, but this is too complicated for my possibilities. Maybe some magnets could keep the top centered on the diamond, but then there is magnetic drag. I don't know any easy solution.
Jeez that diamond scrating that hardened steel is nuts! Really shows how hard it is!
Is there any chance you'd ever make some of these tops to sell...? Even without the diamond tip...?
No, this process (hanmaking something) tooks too many time
Only if he automatize process
@@lynrayy Imma just assume you're not a native English speaker and refrain from bullying you.
@@lynrayy Not if he adjusts the price to make it worth his while.
@@bayralysis I'm russian, yes.
And this channel also exists in Russian, where the author comments on the process. In one of the videos, he said that manual work takes too long to sell something.
@@lynrayy This is probably true if he has another job but it's all about supply demand and whether or not someone is willing to pay enough. I doubt anybody in the comments is willing to pay what this is worth and so not worth selling.
these are what the first Beyblades looked like
A wooden one can have more memories written to it
Now my wifes coffee table looks like a dartboard.Great project as always.Keep them coming.
You are a great, creative person, and I follow you so closely that I keep watching all your wonderful content, I am from Yemen, continue .
If this was not from the perspective of the Internet it would be really creapy XD

Yes , byby 🤭
aaaaahhhh now I got it, that is so clever! a spinning top that doesn't move around! and you still make tiny indentations on unexpectedly hard surfaces! pretty cool!
And the point stays sharp so you minimize friction (if the surface it spins on is hard too).
Serious HIGH FIVE on your craftsmanship man, those are unbelievably awesome! It's nice to see someone that puts the right amount of effort in to make their projects perfect! 👍👍🖖🖖 It you ever want to get rid of any of them please let me know, I love little spinners and tops. I have a few that are customs and I love em! The wife on the other hand not so much, I tend to like Titanium and other more expensive metals lol! Ive actually messed around with resin and wood like burl and walnut, wood for outer ring with swirled resin inter ring and wood and brass shaft. anyhow turned out very nice, kind of elegant.
Some beautifully hand ground turning and radius tools man. Great manual machining. Good job
Amazing!! Now make a diy ruby base for it to spin on! Would look sick plus it’s cheap and easy to make and it is the second closest hardness to diamond
it'll get scratched to hell
@@alex1.2 so? Lol Ruby’s are cheap
A collaboration with Engineer Bruns would be amazing.
this is either the worst drill, or the most inefficient center punch
i love it
These are beautiful! I'll bet you can get one to spin sideways in a loop of string!
very nice work as always. I would love to see you make one of these with a hardened steel ballbearing as the tip and time it like you did the first one
Great video as usual, awesome techniques, love the Launch mechanism.
wow how have i never come across your channel, this is amazing. I also love all your fancy tools, mine are ancient hahaha
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏
Try spinning in on a diamond surface as well as in a complete vacuum...see how long you can get it to spin. Nice work...
Good ole sherline. I have the 4400 lathe and the 2010 mill. Great machines. Nice work.
Brass and silver and copper I love. Seems to me a better option would be to have the tip rounded over not like a cutting point so it is not forced to spin in a precise center point as precision would be what it's all about and not having that exactly will hinder. Also, be good to spin on copper or a thin coat of lead on copper to use as a bearing material and even a swipe of oil to boot. You can get a diamond-tipped dressing stone at Bang good for about 6-7bucks. Probably 17-24bucks in the states. I picked one up to make a glass cutting device. Had to clean the diamond up with a dermal-type tool and diamond abrasive it came out nice and clean. I have a Taig Laith have you any idea if your bit holder will fit mine?? Very nice work!!
Perfect a top that only ever spins in one place! Excellent work!
Youre a very talented craftsman, love how you make tools, fixtures, jigs
A very complicated set to make a very very simple part.. Could have made the shaft part in two basic setup operations. Its a very simple shaft!
Those are pretty nice! I like your choice in material too!
I'd like to see how fast you could get it going with a high pressure air nozzle
Wow! I saw this on Tiptop!!
This top is pretty cool. I like the way you made a turning dog, if there’s not one small enough, make your own! Now if you can spin the top in a way to sign your signature, that would be something.
Clickspring's new drill set....nice!
i am curious ... how long can it spin on material like that blade you use in the video?
I too am curious.
i wonder what thisll do to the future of tops and surfaces
Looks like you need a diamond tabletop now. ;D
Sir, Can you explain the process , Material, and tool that you using ?,
I'm eager to learn more, From you...
I don't know my way around tools or anything but I'm fairly certain the large machine is lathe. He seems to also have a drill press, both of them are quite expensive
He explains everything on his main channel, but it’s in Russian( you could check it if Russian videos have english subtitles.
Beautiful ideas
May I ask, what lathe and mill do you use? They look so small and yet they work so well
This channel should have a million subscribers easy
Do you think it'll spin longer if the diamond tip is rounded as this could reduce the friction during the spin. Good news I have clicked the subscribe button.
I really like the pull strings
You are crazy, I love watching your videos, cheers...
Genius 👍👍👍
Excellent work
Where did you get that diamond tip from? Is it from a specialty whole diamond machine tool (synthetic diamond) or is it natural, like from a ring
**FYI**
I'm unfamiliar with whole diamond tools, they could use natural diamonds I just assumed they would be synthetic. I just remember seeing a video about a specialty high accuracy cnc machines that used them, it was quite interesting I guess they were used for lens production where tolerance is much higher then regular cnc
These are a lot of fun and mesmorising.
Awesome stuff
Awesome brother 👍
now all you need is a diamond table...
drills your playing surface every time
Très bonne vidéo merci
Love the thing you made for the lathe to transfer power
It's called a lathe dog
@@xenonram I mean the screw he put on so it wasn't offset
Coolest video I've seen in a while. Thank you for sharing
Nice!
LOVE the vid man keep it up
I love brass. I hate the way it looks and the feel of the chips when i turn it but it’s so easy to cut!
I can’t tell what I like more the Top or the vibing music
Where does the second sound track come from?? I need it in my life
That's awesome. You should try to spin it on glass and add a drop of oil. It would probably go a long time.
It's not only the friction on the surface that stopps it. Even when it would levitate, it would stop only a few seconds later (At the same starting velocity of course). The friction in the air is the main cause.
Curious to see it on glass lol. I bet it'd mark it up.
@W&M Levsha what mini lathe do you use for your projects?
The leyend said, that the spinning top, find his way to the floor.
Drilling the table.
ابداع ❤️
nice work
Now make a gyro
Hi ! Your videos and work are incredible. What’s the name of the lathe you are using ?
Sherline. Thanks! :)
top wit diamond tip or as I like to call it, the vinyl drill
Awesome toy mate
Need to find a faceting lap. Easy enough to make that tip conical and give it a shallower angle right at the very tip.
Satisfying
Nice. M
Remind me of spinning top in inception
Where can I buy that lathe from?
Can it cut/break glass?
What kind of lathe are you using it’s pretty nice
You'd get better performance if you rounded the diamond into a cone. As is, it'll act like a drill.
I think having a tip coated in DLC would be more effective than the straight Diamond. DLC has a much lower coefficient of friction. If you had a tip and spinning surface both coated in DLC.....!!
How much heat from friction does it make?
Try next time use steel ball instead of any other tip and maybe make concave round plate like thingy for spinning top to spin. Maybe some electric device to make spin? Gears involved?
I just built one of these out of copper it's odd that it randomly popped up as a recommendation. Idk what it is about cutting copper and brass on a lathe.
How to scratch every surface with creative😂
If you want a top to spin a long time . Those magnetic are great but if you had it in a clear plastic tube.
What’s that everywhere you go song called?
Where do I get such a diamond tip from?
Bro is well jenial your very nice job I buy you one
What model lathe do you have?
DIY anything scratcher
Fantastic video as always! What is the purpose of the brass flap first shown at 3:29?
My assumption is that it is a way to ensure rotation with the piece between the two centers. As without a spur or chuck, this would be difficult?
@@vandalman8 I think so, I have seen a similar setup in many machining videos. it's called turning between centers, and he did that because his normal jig was too big
Cool music.
Have you tried to set the top on a piece of glass while spinning?
Can you make it spin on a diamond surface?
But is the diamond tip in the axis of rotation or maybe a little bit off?
Can I have the name of the lovely music…Beautiful precision machine.
What time did you get?
Hola...
What asid u use
can i know from where can i get the mini lathe plz
Could you build a magnetically driven Gyroscope. One that wouldn't stop spinning? What about battery driven? I had an idea to make a sphere remote control like BB8, but with no head and that could defi Gravity! And roll up walls!!
