"Almost thinking about starting to form a committee to start going in" - what a lyrical way to describe a 'light press fit'. I love it!
I love that my favorite TH-camrs watch my other favorite TH-camrs videos and post comments like these to each other.
I KNEW it was “shut up - that’s why “ was the reason as soon as you started to drill the tee slot attach hole.
I think that the occasional clearly telegraphed "because shut up, that's why" is a nice balance, makes the subtle surprising ones even more delicious.
Quinn, what i really admire about you is that you are not a “project-snob”: you apply the same strict (and interesting and informative) engineering principles in an entertaining , accessible project - thats the essence of good teaching! All projects don’t need to be bearing-housings for the CERN Hadron Collider!❤
Hitting a tolerance and having a good surface finish is just the same if its a turbo encabulator or a scribe,
That 'one weird trick', to set the boring bar with negative rake to get the point on-center (!) Made the whole video worth the price of admission right there. Thank you! (oh yeah, and also for literally every other thing you do and say.)
I noticed you are wearing what looks like serious footwear ( boots). I know people that have dropped less than one pound metal parts on their open toed sandaled foot and that was a literal life changing experience! You gain more credibility again! Thank you!
Proper work boots have saved me many injuries over the years.
Thanks for the reminder, Steven and Quinn…
H/t to project farm who did a whole video testing different steel toe boots. Turns out anything is far, far better than nothing. Even the cheapest ones went from "hamburger" to simply swearing, with a piece of railroad track dropped on them.
“Winging It” the source of some of my best ideas- and some absolute duds
That float-lock vice just sells itself. Every time you use it it is just SO obvious how good a solution it is. I think that has to be a priority project once I get my machines up and running!
I thought 'oh, what' s a raffle wheel in a steam locomotive?' 😂
To be honest, I feel winning on a raffle wheel is more likely than seeing any train on time..
At the beginning of every shift all the workers spin the wheel to see who gets to be in charge of the whistle.
What about a casino train? 🤔 Like a steamboat casino, only on rails. Lol.
Me too ! 🤣🤣
I saw the "shut up, that's why" coming, but still enjoyed it. I'd say it's right up there with Yahtzee and "as is tradition" at this point. 😀
Yes, these phrases really tie the room together.
@@DanRynick kind of like how the engraving tied the wheel together
It’s what separates us from the animals.
I love that the grooves might have "scrapped the part", but the holes somehow didn't 😅
Another great video. It amused me to watch a machinist/engineer approaching a project that I could have taken on as a woodworker - the impossibly high end bearing was the cherry on top for me. Looks really satisfying to spin - more like playing with one of those high precision spinning tops than a wooden ratcheting toy.
Great job Quinn, thanks for your hard work on this project and video - they always brighten my Sunday!
“…and I’m working my way slowly around the bend.” - I feel seen, Quinn 😂
I came for the machining but I stayed for your wicked sense of humor,
Fabulous accuracy, and when it's not giving away chooks, you can be a Greek sailor predicting astronomical bodies.
Neat project.
And I know it's coming...aaaannd "because Shut Up... that's why". And yes, I still laughed. I love it!
Thanks, and Meow to Sprocket.
The little 'unnecessary' details can really make a project sing. That circle in the center is a case in point. Very nice!
Hi Quinn,
The raffle wheel is coming along nicely. Looking forward to the next installment. When you needed to remove that off center hole in the bearing axle, the pilot point drills could have been another option to using the two flute end mill.
That was great. Lots of new techniques. Their great great grandkids will still be happily spinning a hundred years from now. I probably would have used cardboard nailed to scrap wood. Thanks.
Finally! Slow-mo sparks and rock music - now you just need to pontificate on life and politics, coffee, beard-care products and $300 sponsor-pants and you’re a “real TH-camr”😂 never change Quinn!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The rotary trick... hey that's very clever. Bit of setup headache, but hey, worked great for several actions.
Go Blondie go! 🙂
Love your line about chamfers, I’ve been missing it!! 🙂
Back away from the caps lock key!! Great. ❤
i guffaw at the "shut up thats why" every time even when I know its coming! Favorite channel on youtube. Also thanks for not breaking the immersion with ads, this auti-adhd brain that cant control focus appreciates it
An 1/8" ball end mill.005-.010" deep works well for engraving. No worrying about breaking the tip off as there isn't one!
"The reason is shut up, that's why." I guess I've been watching you too long, I saw that one coming from a mile away. 😂
Yeah, me too. but it is always funny!
@@LaraCroftCP that stuff is 75% of the reason I'm a patron XD
With that added tension it was even funnier.
Nice that you used the Thunderdome flags on yours. I have always been partial to the Wheel of Morality version.
Yay!! It's Blondihacks time!!!
Wheel of morality, turn turn turn, tell us the lesson that we should learn!
Always interesting to see something different.
Good video Blondiehacks, I Love that sassy attitude.
Nice job Quinn.👍👍
As always your attention to detail even on the projects as you said are not that critical is just impressive. I do love watching you work Girl. Thanks for sharing.
We had one of these at the car dealer I work at. Customers would spin, and win prizes. The most expensive was a free oil change service. Somebody had secretly added stick on wheel balancing weights to the back of the wheel. Management was getting upset with all the free oil changes, and could not understand how it always stopped on that! Wheel did not stay around very long.
😂
Did you think about using your bandsaw to cut the circle with a center pin mounted to the table. This is a trick that wood workers use to cut circles using a table saw. there is a video on the woodworkers journal about it.
I had the same thought.
The other trick is to use a router on a stick, which when you get right down to it, is pretty much what using a rotary table and a mill amount to in the Machinist world.
I think designing , making and fitting a back gear for your lathe would be a great project. I guess probably not feasible but amazing upgrade. I often look with with envy on lathes with speed controllers compared to basic 4 pulley system on my little Boxford but the fitted back gear makes all the difference.
23:49 - Maybe I wasn't paying attention in previous videos, nice sign that I just noticed. 👍👍
aaaand...
Yatzee
I'm really only interested in the loco build but will still watch the other vids as they are well done.
It spins!
I like your logic 😊
I always love the build up to "because shut up, that's why" - maaaaaybe there's a boring reason this time? :D
If it’s worth building, it’s worth over building. Unless it’s an airplane.
Coming together very nicely...the center ring works so good!
I’ll admit, when I saw the thumbnail, I had Low expectations. My bad, it was a really interesting engineering video. 👍
You can never have too big of a rotary table,, well unless it tips your mill over.. My largest is a 20 inch and while not used much when needed there is no substitute. Worst thing is where to put it when not in use, mine lives on a die lift cart most of the time.
When it started I said to myself "Boring [sic]".
At the end I said "Where did 25 minutes just go?"
All sorts of cool ideas, great video.
You've done it to me again - where did that 25mins go?
Seemed like an 8 or 9 min vid lol.
Could add another set of "fixturing holes" to the 4 other lines to turn original fixturing hole locations from a mistake to happy little fuckups
or… file the ends so it makes a pleasing whistle sound while spinning…. 😎
There are no misstakes, just happy little accidents! (...lets make them birds, yeah, they are birds now!)
Hey Quinn,
I noticed that the keyless chuck and the thingy holding the boring head seemed to be "wobbling" after the hole-saw started cutting.
Is that just an optical illusion, or did something pull wonky from the hole-saw wobble?
I hope the mill isn't in any pain 😆
Another option for regaining some concentricity would be to use the compound to turn an internal taper. Because you can run the tool into the existing hole, a facing-style tool should be viable; (although clearance below the cutting edge can be “fun”). The cone needs to be steeper than the drill point, then it becomes the face which influences the drill’s position. Once the shoulders of the drill point have established a cylinder, the fact that the point is unevenly loaded is less of an issue.
And you’re pre-chamfering the hole :-)
Good idea!
I was all set to get my machining fix for the week when I watched your raffle wheel video and I got it and then some. Thanks Quinn! You have never failed to deliver.
"Have you seen steel?"
No, no, I have not. What's that?
YOu could use the fixturing holes to mount some sort of flashy ornament like a big rhinestone or a star-shaped stud.
Got to be LEDs that flash when the wheel stops! Arduino time...
Quick question Quinn: you said you needed to bore out the disc to the same as the bearing but as you then put a shoulder on the axle, does that not then remove of the need for that relationship?
Quick question, have ya tried anchor lube on taps? I use tap magic now, but the bag is cramped, looking for multi taskers. Thanks for this.
1/2 way thru and you keep using your, "I thought it would be a good idea to do X, and boy was that dumb!" voice on things that actually turn out well (see the center ring!), which is giving me insane anxiety waiting for something to fail!
Bust the deal, face the wheel.
I have made holes accidentally in the wrong position decorative features by peening brass slugs into them and finishing them level to the surface.
I wish you could easily get ground stainless rod here in the uk, I'm profoundly envious!
Watching you machine this heavy steel raffle wheel, and I suddenly think, "she should make it look like it's made out of cardboard and popsicle sticks and whatnot so that people get thrown off when they go to spin it."
Yes I have enjoyed watching!!
1:05 Safety reasons? I mean, making a raffle wheel from Plutonium or Arsenic may also be cool, but wildly unsafe.
Add a bit of steam and that disc could hit 10K rpm, if you wanted to.
Or just spin it up with a compressed air nozzle. I wonder how fast it would go before the bearing seized and all that energy went into destroying Quinn's shop...
OK this is not the right way of doing something LoL but it has worked for me!
get a two flute cutter grind of one of the front cutting edges now you have a small one cutting boring tool
BUT you can one take light cuts
also have you looked into Rotabroach bits? they are use with magnetic drills they are quiet accurate: BUT you are left with a small plug so they are no good for blind holes.
BUT a LOT better than hole saws.
I'll be honest, I saw the project and was a little disappointed. Of course, watching the video I was reminded that all shop time is quality time, so I shouldn't have worried. A boring operation doesn't know if it's for a raffle wheel or a locomotive, after all.
Hi Quinn, my brother was a tool and die man, he had done a lot of engineering told me to use a ball nose end mill for my engraving and wow it works very well. give that a try. I quit using the point engraver bits all together.
Rich
What people are discovering in the Home CNC milling space is that if you move the orientation of the tool off of perpendicular, by 5-45 degrees, you don't end up trying to drag the slowest part of your ball mill across the bottom of your milling, and that helps with the finish as well as tool wear. But if you've found it isn't necessary for your setup, that's OK too.
Mrpete was my high school welding teacher! I wish I would have had more time to learn from him
Out of curiosity, what do you use as footware in your shop? I have steel toe boots from previous jobs and, while I dont really need them in small shop I currently work in, I still use them.
I wear Caterpillar brand steel toe work boots. They’ve saved me many an injury, even in my hobby shop.
@Blondihacks neat! Glad to know I'm not being overkill with my chosen footwear. Mine are also oddly comfortable to stand in all day.
@@AnonOmis1000 Keep in mind the people making them know that the people who are going to wear them, likely will be standing in them all day, day after day, hopefully alternating pairs of them from one day to the next at a minimum. Most of the companies making them want you to come back for more. I've been reading a lot of great things about RedWing steel toe boots, up to the guy who will never wear anything else for his railroad job after he survived a railcar wheel rolling over a toe while wearing a set. I've had CAT steel toe boots in the past, and agree they are good footwear.
Bananas? You've been watching CEE...
I take it all back, I want to see Quinn, Kurtis, and Jon, having a BBQ, chatting about engineering and sharing a couple of beers. Thanks for another great video Quinn, helps a lot!
Only if Chris from Clickspring joins in although he may find Canada a bit chilly after Northern Australia
@@jeffarmstrong1308 I mean Chris goes without saying, but I think he'll be alright, if he needed one I'm sure we could find a big coat 🙂
@@heighRick 🤣
I love you because we are still learning!
was that a big Lebowski reference ?
I can tell you've been watching Cutting Edge Engineering; bananas indeed! ;-)
Always a pleasure.
Queen Done (as in getting it done). Love the channel.
Bananas? Didn’t know you were in Australia.😊😊😊
I feel like a little kid again, waking up on Saturday morning for my shows. You are using a surface grinder grade bearing, but are you going to balance the assembly so that it can go real fast and not shake?
That's why she drilled those 4 "balancing" holes, LOL
@21:07 is this a carpenters square Quinn?
Was that baby’s arm holding an apple?
I’ll see myself out. 😁
I did a fair amount of winging it on my projects. Very satisfying and inventive
Just commenting to feed the algorithm Quinn. Thanks again and Best Wishes to You and Your Family.
Has that company that gave you the DeWalt bandsaw wall mounting bracket given you the OK to advertise it? Because I want one!
No, I think he’s gone for good. 😕
Thanks for sharing
Thanks Quinn
That was really fun!
Great Job.
Me, before clicking the vid "oh haha those train people and their silly names for machine parts, wonder what the raffle wheel really is"
Back when I spent a summer riding around in converted road busses, one of the drivers took some chalk or whiteout to divide up one of the tires, I think it was the one with the odometer on it, and used the odometer as a pointer. I forget what the prize was for the drivers based on which driver's number was 'high' on arrival of a span of the trip. But one can imagine. Could have been simply each driver got one number, every driver donated a dollar and on arrival the kitty went to the winning driver for a 'free lunch' or something. It was a good summer, and a lot of fun places visited. Even got to perform at Denver's MIle High stadium.
Tip on those brazed carbide boring bars, nip a little chip breaker on the edge with the grinder or dremel or whatever and then that negative rake when set on center becomes neutral or even positive
Fun!
For 100 points, you get "shut up, that's why"
I can already tell that this wheel is going to have a lot of unusual prizes.
Yay, miniature Wheel of the Worst!
Different sausages in each piece of pie.
Neat. This looks like it's going to be so much better than one of those online ones. :D
(I mean, so long as you want 8 choices. But still.)
Or 64 on a grid, or 512 choices with 3 spins. ...
At 25.07 I am wondering how Quinn is going to balance this wheel.....
The intrusive thoughts are telling me to spin it with an air compressor
Should of made it out of a mitre saw blade. Add some danger to the spin! 😮

I present to you “The Drawer of Misfit Tools.”
We always use a sander with a pivot pin to make large discs
I cannot count the times I have used the answer "Because shut up. That's why", to justify my mis... er.. highly technical decisions.
You might not believe your welding skills are up to par to fill up those speed holes but your brazing skills surely are B) I'm happy to see we get a raffle wheel build!
Cool!
Learn not to ask obvious questions on this channel... Why? Because Shut up! That's why. For those holes that are not supposed to be there, you might use it to mount another decorative ring to cover it up. Anyway, It's definitely outside the normal subject matter on this channel, which makes it a fun project... A little spice to make things interesting 🙂
Side quest!
Poifect!
