thats a good idea, at the machine shop i work at one of my coworkers made coasters out of scrap pieces and filled with copper drill chips and filler it with epoxy, they looked dope
As a horology nerd, I have to correct one thing. "Regulator" isn't a brand, it's a type of clock; or (more accurately) on modern versions it's a nod back to a time when regulator style clocks were the most accurate. Before regulator clocks, the average clock was accurate to within five minutes per week or so, but regulators were accurate to within 10 seconds per month. Manufacturers began using the regulator markings to denote the accuracy of their products, meaning people could trust them enough to use them as a standard by which to set their own personal watches. Nice work though. As with everything you make, it looks good!
The reason that the movement is hidden in the inside of the box is to help with dust if you get dust on the gears it can interfere with the accuracy of the clock
Yeah but everyone has a phone and maybe a wristwatch. I doubt they care that much how accurate the wall clock is. A lot of people under the age of like 30 don't even know how to read an analogue clock face.
As a Bambu Lab owner and (not anymore) lover, you should know that they recently pushed a software update which locks third party accessories to work, making mandatory to use their accessories and software. Keep in mind that this is the same company which took the open source slicer software from Prusa, and then rebranded as their software. They had to open it after users discovered it was a cloned and rebranded software (which open source software requires to do usually). I love their printer because it always works, but it's easy to make the perfect printer stealing ideas and functionality from every company on the market and not caring about open source ethics and other people's ideas (and also patents).
They also force you to connect to their servers in order to use their software. Proprietary software from them is one thing. Forcing you to put information through their network in order to use a printer that's two feet away from your computer "because of security issues" is past a line or six.
From what i read at other posts, bambu has realise they had security issues, and they are implementing countermeasures to that. 3rd party will be allowed (such as orca slicer), but they have to implement the same security measures.
@@PolarfoxPlaysYeah that's complete crap. They're gaslighting you It's not about security, It's about control. They could easily just fix the security problem without doing any of this. They want to make it so you can only use their cloud services and their ecosystem. They're going to HP printer model. Kind of like when people go think of the children. It's not about the children but it's a excuse that tends to work.
I joked at one point at work about how we are the kings of janky cnc setups in my country. But you sir, truly deserve the crown more than we do and you are on the other side of the globe to us
You can embed the magnet inside a printed part by pausing the print (you can do it in the slicers), inserting the magnet, and letting the printer print over it. This makes sure the magnet never falls out. (Pause the print right before bridging over the hole to make sure the magnet doesn't sit proud of the part to avoid crashing the nozzle into it) You can also do the same thing to embed nuts in your print. HAPPY PRINTING🎉
Be careful with putting magnets in a 3D printer. Mine on layer ~24 of all the pieces made a ridge that I always had to sand... I thought the Z axis threaded bar had a defect that I was unable to see, but no, it was the damn magnetic bed that I bought from Amazon. I suppose that at layer ~24 the head stopped feeling the magnetic attraction and made a tiny jump, now that it has a bed held with clamps it prints perfectly. By the way, to leave things embedded in plastic pieces, what I do is print the holes 0.3 mm deeper and then melt some plastic towards the object with a soldering iron. It is also useful for fixing broken pieces or removing traces of supports.
Much relief when he revealed the donor clock, I've been working up to making my own watch from scratch and it's taken years just to build/find all the tooling. Saw this and I was like what, a clock in a couple weeks since the last video...who is this guy. Awesome work!

Silver wood screws are an eyesore. Find some nice bronze ones to replace them. And a bit of "gold" (or black) paint on the feet wouldn't hurt. Nice project!
What a beautiful revision to a vintage clock! The visible movement, elegant face, and beautiful walnut and brass backboard really brought it to life. Bravo!
Honestly, I am too tired to comment but I had to say this - THIS VIDEO We saw Brandon diving into the complete opposite of what his tastes were - we see him woodworking without complaining and setting a new record for the number of endmills broken on one part AND not geeking for atleast 5 mins over a new tool!!! (XD , Much Love Sir, you are the inspiration for my engineering journey!! Thank you SO much)
My father was a clock maker and seeing your machine shop equipment reminds me of how downscaled his lathe, milling machine and tooling were. His lathe was the size of a toaster and was build around 60 years ago.
These videos are always so enjoyable to watch and the project looks great as usual. All machinists know that sinking feeling when an expensive carbide cutter bites the dust ..and that special apprehensive pucker factor when you swap it out to your last spare on a deadline and hope you make it through. I make a lot if steampunk stuff .. walnut / mahogany and brass are always a baller combo.
Great printer, i have the P1S. However, they just announced a new authentication scheme that will break everything third-party. so if you use orca-slicer, DONT upgrade the firmware!
And that's the issue with Bambu labs, that and random fires that they took an age to own up too and a tonne of other issue like outright lies on their marketing IT DOES NOT USE LIDAR! and they pretty much breach most open source licenses including with their slicer
when drilling thin brass, 2 things that help. 1. Brass your drill bits. essentially grinding a flat on the leading edge so it's not a scoop, if you work with thin/soft metals a lot, it's worth getting a whole set and doing it to all of them, then picking up any specifics piecemeal and brassing them, too. 2, double sided tape to some scrap wood, then give it a good squeeze in a vice with something to protect the brass surface finish like another piece of wood.
Congratulations for falling down a whole new rabbit hole with 3d printing! Your are actually the last of my very short list of favorite TH-camrs to finally get one of these! Welcome to the brotherhood of additive manufacturers!
A possible solution to the key issue is to make a low profile "thumbwheel" key that can stay permanently attached to the clock face and allowing you to wind the clock without needing the use of the key it came with. To make it less noticeable you could route away most of the face of the thumbwheel to leave just enough material to connect the mount to the keyway with the outer thumbwheel and have enough strength to wind the gears. Maybe knurl the outside to make winding it easier.
The next project will involve designing a protective, transparent glass enclosure for the clock mechanism. This enclosure will utilize multiple rectangular glass panes, assembled using a stained-glass technique. The brass connectors will provide an aesthetically pleasing patina while simultaneously preventing dust contamination. ❤ She will love it!
Thanks, as always, very good and fun video. Nice project, your wife and your good self always make me smile or laugh. Im not even close to having set my foot in a milling machine. Best regards, Annie from Downunder
your video have something so calming and relaxing to them. kinda like bob ross painting, but with machining and metalwork. and yes i fell asleep to your videos more than once. thats not ment as an insult.
To solve the winding problem, could you make ratcheting leavers pretuding from the sides, that are perminantly connected to the winding pins. Then to wind it, you just move them back and forth. You could even have them spring loaded, so you only needed to push them in one direction and they would naturally return. I think this would fit well with the open style of the clock.
I absolutely love watching these videos, they give me so much inspiration for my project, I’ve just started as a tool maker at Ford motor company and it’s so cool to see all the different sides of machining.
You might want to check the tool runout on the rotary milling head setup. Even small amounts of runout can break small end mills like that. Maybe you could do similar work and only break 4?
Up front, I'm a woodworker, so I know exactly two things about machining (jack, and s**t). I do dig your channel, and appreciate your sense of humor - it seems to span makerhood. I perked up at the swarf idea as part of your merch - when I do something as a gift, and that object has drawers, or is a box or something, I like to tuck a few planer shavings inside. Had more than a few people ask me later, "What does this do?" Not sure that translates to metal swarf, since it can be hurt-y.
Beautiful job on the clock. I have found sometimes getting the expensive end mills will prevent the odd break that you seem to be experiencing on those that broke. But then it hurts even more when they do break, especially if it’s from a bone head mistake. It’s kind of hard to avoid breaking with the small cutters any way. I have personally seen people break 1 inch carbide end mills and it makes you glad when you aren’t the one footing the bill.
I'm glad I'm already subscribed so I don't miss the full clock video in the future. Weird how refreshing this is when running a cnc gantry mill all day. :)
Having the right tool for the job is one thing, keeping everything straight and knowing how to use it is completely different. You sir on a regular basis below my mind
Great project! Some people would call that milling machine accessory a "Cherrying head"; brass inlay in wood (looked great!) is called Boulle work after Andre-Charles Boulle. A lot of Boulle work is super fancy. One more: clock makers call the ring you epoxied a "chapter ring" and they have special black lacquer to inlay the numbers, sort of like the epoxy you used. They might also use silvering powder to keep the brass bright in color and be anti-tarnish. Again very nice project.
Well after Bambu Lab's absolutely shit recent firmware update that changes the terms of the sale by forcing you to update it or it locks you out preventing you from using What You Paid For on top of forcing the Cloud on you it's a hard pass from me. But the project turned out great. 👍👍
Hello dear friend and thank you for the cool and creative projects you make! Today when I heard your wife's voice again in the video, I noticed that her voice has changed and is thicker than before. I hope that there is no problem or illness and that you, the beautiful and cool couple, will be healthy and happy together for many years.❤❤❤
That 3D printer is AWESOME. With all the features it provides like the auto bed leveling and the filament switching stuff, and its ease of use, it being a little over $1k is a really good deal. (I think) I bought a printer for $200 and I couldn’t get it to level and I tried for days. I look forward to getting one of these printer in the near future! Thanks for showing this to us, it’s pretty much exactly what I’m looking for.
I mean, it's a $1000 printer. $1000 printers from a decade ago with manual bed leveling were also reliable. With a well made printer, auto-leveling just adds convenience. With a not so well made printer, auto-leveling helps compensate for a warped print bed.
I'd say the multimaterial setup makes it already worth the price. There's some channels that make big print parts and use petg as the support material because petg and pla don't stick together. After printing some huge parts with pla only, the support removing is such a massive waste of time...
I can't appreciate enough of the importance of baby steps, it's the most powerful technique in workshop! Big BOS is proud of you breaking 6 end mills today.
I love your channel! I get excited when I see a new video is uploaded. I’m inspired to try and design, I used on shape to design custom four link brackets for my car! It took some time but I got there! I’m glad your channel exists! Thanks!
@InheritanceMachining I have the even poorer man's CNC, a pin router, aka overarm router. Used a lot in guitar making, I 3d print templates to use with it as well. You'll find so many uses for the printer in the shop
Hey on the magnets you are selling. You won't have to glue in the magnets if you design a hole for the magnet on the inside (or use like 12% infill or something that lets the magnet friction fit in) pause the print at a layer or two above the magnet height, then boom magnet always stays inside the part and looks super cool. (I do this with some of my designs)
That clock looks fantastic! As someone whos had a 3D Printer since 2015 I'm also looking forward to how you might incorporate 3D Printing into your projects besides for organization and pantograph templates
Great Video as always. I'm sure I'm not the first to comment this, but I have an idea to improve your magnets. Try embedding them into to part by designing a cavity, pausing the print and insert the magnet. Afterwards resume the print. There are a lot of great guides on how to do it properly and it safes the magnet from falling out or breaking when accidently dropped.
The non-alignment of the three screws at the base where the workings are attached to the walnut, would drive me batty. That said, it's gorgeous. Nice work!
Really fun, it does seem a little outside what you normally do but not in a bad way at all. You're almost always making purposeful things, so in that sense I think this is a great fit, it's just that rather than making something new, you're transforming something that already exists. And, uh, embracing the imprecision in a way we don't usually get to see. :) But it's nice; it doesn't need the precision. Great little clock!
Can't believe you got a Bambu printer just in time for that Chinese company to lock out 3rd party programs and make most the the 3d printer community furious.
Keep up with these thirst traps and you can be the Naomi Wu of machining! Can't believe it took this long for 3D printing to make it to your shop, you're going to find endless uses for it, especially for optimizing storage in a compact shop.
So nice! Great job. I suggest a simple hole in the top edge to store the key for kind of a bunny ear effect and replace the steel philips heads with brass slot screws.
Go to shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2354729&u=4548275&m=138211&urllink=&afftrack= to check out the X1C, filaments and more!
The X1C looks to be a great machine, but it's also 1000 bucks more expensive than I'm able or willing to pay...

@ It is pricy for sure. I have no experience with the A1 but have heard great things and it much more affordable

Brandon, did you notice how much the click looks like you?
Project idea: make coasters out of scraps from the box of shame. Preserve those end mills in epoxy! Let them live on as stewards of refreshment!
thats a good idea, at the machine shop i work at one of my coworkers made coasters out of scrap pieces and filled with copper drill chips and filler it with epoxy, they looked dope
@@buckytheblacksmith6923Just don’t epoxy a ham sandwich into it. That’s been scientifically proven to be a suboptimal idea.
Yes please, give us the coasters now
Perchance coasters made of stained wood with the same style brass inlay trim to match the clock? really tie the room together.
@@daveys I see you are also a superfastmatt fan lol
Seeing someone who knows what they're doing break that many endmills makes me feel a LOT better about the cursed stuff I do in my shop 😅

Joe, your blue tape work-holding sins will not be ignored!

As a horology nerd, I have to correct one thing. "Regulator" isn't a brand, it's a type of clock; or (more accurately) on modern versions it's a nod back to a time when regulator style clocks were the most accurate.

I learned something today! Thanks!
@InheritanceMachining you teach me things I can use in watchmaking all the time, so thank you.
and then Warren G stole it
So, kinda like the "Intel Inside" branding of the vintage clock world?
@@Ryan_ThompsonYou realize “intel” is a brand, though? And the only one which got their “15 mins of fame for inaccuracy”.
It doesn't matter what im watching. Inheritance machining notification is what i click.
very true
Yep, same here. Was in the middle of a video, and clicked over to Inheritance as soon as I saw the notification!
Yup didn't even have his notifications on but i watch him so much it shows up within the first day or few hours in my recommended
when you click does your end mill magically replace itself?
true
The reason that the movement is hidden in the inside of the box is to help with dust if you get dust on the gears it can interfere with the accuracy of the clock
Was wondering how far down the comments I'd get before finding this observation! It is pretty though!
Good point. Perhaps a revision: add a heat bent 180 degree curved polycarbonate shield over the top s a dust deflector
Yeah but everyone has a phone and maybe a wristwatch. I doubt they care that much how accurate the wall clock is.

To make it less noticeable you could route away most of the face of the thumbwheel to leave just enough material to connect the mount to the keyway with the outer thumbwheel and have enough strength to wind the gears. Maybe knurl the outside to make winding it easier.
The next project will involve designing a protective, transparent glass enclosure for the clock mechanism. This enclosure will utilize multiple rectangular glass panes, assembled using a stained-glass technique. The brass connectors will provide an aesthetically pleasing patina while simultaneously preventing dust contamination. ❤
She will love it!
Thanks, as always, very good and fun video. Nice project, your wife and your good self always make me smile or laugh. Im not even close to having set my foot in a milling machine. Best regards, Annie from Downunder
15:47 If there was ever a time for an end mill counter...
THIS! I was waiting for it but it never came! 😭
Indeed! For this project, replace the Side Project Counter with an End Mill Counter!
your video have something so calming and relaxing to them. kinda like bob ross painting, but with machining and metalwork. and yes i fell asleep to your videos more than once. thats not ment as an insult.
0:21 seems like it's time for that regulator to mount up.
To solve the winding problem, could you make ratcheting leavers pretuding from the sides, that are perminantly connected to the winding pins. Then to wind it, you just move them back and forth. You could even have them spring loaded, so you only needed to push them in one direction and they would naturally return.
I think this would fit well with the open style of the clock.
A "broken end mill counter" would fit this video very well😂
What ever happened to the side project counter? 🤔
The box is happy for your sacrifices to it for this project. It wishes to consume more in the future.
Ah, the sacred union of subtractive and additive manufacturing. Excellent video, IM.
Porn bot alert.

I absolutely love watching these videos, they give me so much inspiration for my project, I’ve just started as a tool maker at Ford motor company and it’s so cool to see all the different sides of machining.
You might want to check the tool runout on the rotary milling head setup. Even small amounts of runout can break small end mills like that. Maybe you could do similar work and only break 4?
16:32 "far from perfect" its still perfect from afar! Looks incredible 😍
What are your thoughts on the latest "Security update" from Bambu?
YES THIS, EVERYONE LOOK AT THE INFO. THIS SUCKS.
Up front, I'm a woodworker, so I know exactly two things about machining (jack, and s**t). I do dig your channel, and appreciate your sense of humor - it seems to span makerhood. I perked up at the swarf idea as part of your merch - when I do something as a gift, and that object has drawers, or is a box or something, I like to tuck a few planer shavings inside. Had more than a few people ask me later, "What does this do?" Not sure that translates to metal swarf, since it can be hurt-y.
your the best channel ever. keep it up man
Beautiful job on the clock. I have found sometimes getting the expensive end mills will prevent the odd break that you seem to be experiencing on those that broke. But then it hurts even more when they do break, especially if it’s from a bone head mistake. It’s kind of hard to avoid breaking with the small cutters any way. I have personally seen people break 1 inch carbide end mills and it makes you glad when you aren’t the one footing the bill.
I love watching your videos while eating my lunch.
I'm glad I'm already subscribed so I don't miss the full clock video in the future. Weird how refreshing this is when running a cnc gantry mill all day. :)
I'm shocked there wasn't a broken end mill counter put in by the wife.
Bank manager!
using a pantorouter based on a 3d printed template must be the closest you can get to just using a CNC while still claiming "i refuse to use CNC" 😄
I've made a few all wood clocks, nothing like the satisfaction of seeing the first one actually run, good job, love it
Love everything about this, except for those screws at the end. Why not swap them with some flat head brass screws?
lack of planning 😂
@InheritanceMachining
No excuses accepted. They, and the ugly mounting brackets, need fixing or covering.
Having the right tool for the job is one thing, keeping everything straight and knowing how to use it is completely different. You sir on a regular basis below my mind
Uri tuchman??
Well, there was foreshadowing in the comments below Uri's video
Great project! Some people would call that milling machine accessory a "Cherrying head"; brass inlay in wood (looked great!) is called Boulle work after Andre-Charles Boulle. A lot of Boulle work is super fancy. One more: clock makers call the ring you epoxied a "chapter ring" and they have special black lacquer to inlay the numbers, sort of like the epoxy you used. They might also use silvering powder to keep the brass bright in color and be anti-tarnish. Again very nice project.
As someone who has a partner that loves show and tell times, these have become my favorite parts of these videos.
The humour in this video was on point, thank you for the laughs
Well after Bambu Lab's absolutely shit recent firmware update that changes the terms of the sale by forcing you to update it or it locks you out preventing you from using What You Paid For on top of forcing the Cloud on you it's a hard pass from me. But the project turned out great. 👍👍
Turned out quite lovely. Nicely done! I love the interplay between you and your spouse. Almost makes me want to go out and find a new one of my own :)
A typical TH-camr (me included) would title this, "How to 3D Print Metal". Your title is perfect and we can all learn from this.
Hello dear friend and thank you for the cool and creative projects you make! Today when I heard your wife's voice again in the video, I noticed that her voice has changed and is thicker than before. I hope that there is no problem or illness and that you, the beautiful and cool couple, will be healthy and happy together for many years.❤❤❤
When Inheritance Machining uploads, I watch immediately!
You guys never fail to bring a smile to my face. Yall are relationships goals 100% and your ability to just make things is something I aspire to
That 3D printer is AWESOME. With all the features it provides like the auto bed leveling and the filament switching stuff, and its ease of use, it being a little over $1k is a really good deal. (I think) I bought a printer for $200 and I couldn’t get it to level and I tried for days. I look forward to getting one of these printer in the near future! Thanks for showing this to us, it’s pretty much exactly what I’m looking for.
The X1C really does step up your additive mfg game. I've got two and the old highly modified CR-10 just sits there, looking sad about it.
I mean, it's a $1000 printer. $1000 printers from a decade ago with manual bed leveling were also reliable. With a well made printer, auto-leveling just adds convenience. With a not so well made printer, auto-leveling helps compensate for a warped print bed.
I'd say the multimaterial setup makes it already worth the price. There's some channels that make big print parts and use petg as the support material because petg and pla don't stick together. After printing some huge parts with pla only, the support removing is such a massive waste of time...
if only the company behind them could stop making their product worse
I can't appreciate enough of the importance of baby steps, it's the most powerful technique in workshop!
Big BOS is proud of you breaking 6 end mills today.
Worst possible timing on that 3D printer brand with the dumb shit they just forced pushed via firmware update though...
YES THIS, EVERYONE LOOK AT THE INFO. THIS SUCKS.
I love your channel! I get excited when I see a new video is uploaded. I’m inspired to try and design, I used on shape to design custom four link brackets for my car! It took some time but I got there! I’m glad your channel exists! Thanks!

I just can't imagine what you do with high end tech! Looove your take on bringing old school + mastery in the spotlight.
Who needs a CNC when you have a pantagraph and a 3D printer!
poor man's cnc haha
@InheritanceMachining I have the even poorer man's CNC, a pin router, aka overarm router. Used a lot in guitar making, I 3d print templates to use with it as well. You'll find so many uses for the printer in the shop
I always love how excited your wife gets anytime you show her a finished project
Hey on the magnets you are selling. You won't have to glue in the magnets if you design a hole for the magnet on the inside (or use like 12% infill or something that lets the magnet friction fit in) pause the print at a layer or two above the magnet height, then boom magnet always stays inside the part and looks super cool. (I do this with some of my designs)
Nice job, but please ditch the Phillips screws for brass slotted 👌
That clock looks fantastic! As someone whos had a 3D Printer since 2015 I'm also looking forward to how you might incorporate 3D Printing into your projects besides for organization and pantograph templates
You give the best feeling to machining in the world! I love this clock and all your projects🥳❤
Your videos always feel like a hot cup of cocoa in front of an open fire. Very cosy. Love your work ❤️
As a watchmaker and a great fan of your channel I completely love it!
I really love your working relationship with your wife, it’s so delightful! Reminds me of my collaboration with my wife
Great Video as always. I'm sure I'm not the first to comment this, but I have an idea to improve your magnets. Try embedding them into to part by designing a cavity, pausing the print and insert the magnet. Afterwards resume the print. There are a lot of great guides on how to do it properly and it safes the magnet from falling out or breaking when accidently dropped.
Great project as always. Welcome to the world of 3-D printing. It makes wonderful coasters. Look forward to your next video.
Currently watching this at 3:50am while working night shift instead of working on planes. Worth it
The non-alignment of the three screws at the base where the workings are attached to the walnut, would drive me batty.
That said, it's gorgeous. Nice work!
Using the 3D printer for pantograph blanks is an AWESOME idea ! Hope to see more projects using the pantograph
Really fun, it does seem a little outside what you normally do but not in a bad way at all. You're almost always making purposeful things, so in that sense I think this is a great fit, it's just that rather than making something new, you're transforming something that already exists. And, uh, embracing the imprecision in a way we don't usually get to see. :) But it's nice; it doesn't need the precision. Great little clock!
Can't believe you got a Bambu printer just in time for that Chinese company to lock out 3rd party programs and make most the the 3d printer community furious.
Keep up with these thirst traps and you can be the Naomi Wu of machining!
Can't believe it took this long for 3D printing to make it to your shop, you're going to find endless uses for it, especially for optimizing storage in a compact shop.
So nice! Great job. I suggest a simple hole in the top edge to store the key for kind of a bunny ear effect and replace the steel philips heads with brass slot screws.
