Yes, we know the mouse is a little different, but it's the only one that survived our coolant exposure tests. That said, welcome to the Tormach family; we can't wait to see what you and your team do with your new 1100MX Mill! Regarding on-site installations, we have rebooted that service offering, but it is currently only available to customers in the US due to COVID travel challenges. However, we do offer pre-assembly services regardless of location, so maybe if you get another machine we can ship it out to you either with accessories pre-installed (ATC, etc.) or even fully assembled, but then Colin would miss out on all the fun of doing it himself. PS - Linus, safety glasses are your friend!
You guys do know that this man wear sock with his sandals so safety with Linus in a warehouse full of machinery is about like telling a kid to stop jumping on the bed.
I've never expected you had a company profile. I've never either had experiences with your machines, but I see that all of your machines are really well made, so, love you. Oh, yea, and have a great day.
As a career CNC Machinist, i love seeing people checking one out for the first time. Hope you guys have a lot of fun, and make some cool stuff. With that 4th axis, your possibilities are endless!
Yeah, i told myself the same. With his reach, i hope some more kid will be a little interested in being a machinist. So much to learn and specialize in !
Haven't heard about that brand, but it looks amazing, specially since all the CNC machines I know from school and a few jobs I was in are so old that some still have floppy drives and the newer ones were running Windows XP on 2012.
Ah! Never EVER slide your hands across milled aluminum. The edges are SUPER sharp! On the plus side, this will make heat sinks much better than a hacksaw can :)
Yeah. I pulled on a piece of aluminum shaving once without gloves. Super lucky all I got was a minor cut, it was basically razor wire. I've learned to be much more careful.
How I imagine this amazing video came to be. Linus at the weekly meeting: "So who has some good idea for new videos?" Colin: "Well we could buy a Tormach 1100MX for 35-40k$ and set it up ourself *sparkly eyes* .. we absolutly need it! " - day 2 after video live with over 800k views Linus: " Well worth it."*continues to play with pure gold controller*
I think a normal install with concrete anchors, three phase wired in from transformer, cooling system, and networking with a mezzanine from pallet is a week including test pieces. If Linus is so excited you could have him do field service for the Northwest on your CNC machines.

Great review here in the USA we just bought one for our HS classroom. We teach our Engineering students how to use 3D printers, Laser Engravers, Milling Machines and many other useful pieces of equipment. However the one thing we can not do is have our kids build computers because their is no warranty... crazy the way education works.
@@jivewig my sentiments exactly. This will likely be the only time lienus touches this machine. Unless it for another video clip, for a moment of a second, Alex and crew on the other hand will be using the hell out of it. You can see this in action, on the pyramid build episodes. Lienus comes in for the intro/outro and Alex did the entire builds work, save for lienus holding a bracket while alex welded it (that could have been done by a magnet) lol.
@@crisnmaryfam7344 lmao, finally no more manual threading for custom water blocks 😂. Oh and heat kills magnets btw, permanently. So probably you shouldn’t use them for welding.
@@jivewig Should have stopped with the first part of your comment. We use magnets all the time in welding. Whether it's for grounding or for materials placement. If using them properly, heat death is not a problem.
Videos like this always remind me people aren't around equipment like this every day. Talking about encoders, VFDs, and industrial equipment as a whole. Glad to see people excited about it!
As a machinist I really enjoy this content and I'm really glad Linus hired someone that knows what they are doing unlike when Luke used to do most of the shop stuff. lol
@@spudglynz I was speaking more in reference to the fact he doesn’t understand proper feeds and speeds when it came to milling stuff on the CNC router. There are pretty good guidelines to go by for spindle and feed speeds rather than just saying “sure that should be good” and rolling with it.
@@troygamblin929 The problem with everyone at LTT, is for some reason, instead of taking time to research shit, they just wing it. Even though they live on TH-cam. Every time I try to learn something new, I watch at least a few hours worth of YT videos and do webpage research as well.
i dont even understand anything but im literally just in awe as to realize the sheer scale of the LMG at this time to have such a big and expensive equipment. their company is big BIG huh
That equipment doesn't really say a lot about how big LMG is. Sure, 40 grand sounds a lot, but that's a lot less than basically any single one of their employees cost them per year.
@@thedomham2831 now that you mention that, im not exactly aware how many employees they have now. but i guess they really are big big bIG. its just such a wild thing for me considering where they started on this platform
With this machine, they can do heatsinks, toolless screws, custom IHS, custom case parts, display stands, camera/light jigs, etc, etc.. Basically something that can cut metal very precisely.
that a cute little machine. machinist here. the first mill I ever worked on was a MORI SEIKI MH-633 twin table horizontal 50 taper with full table 4th. and 1k psi threw spindle coolant. that machine is the size of a small house. also im glad to see you guys buy a Saunders Machine Works fixture plate.
@@Locutus494 for a proper one from Siemens or dmg mori you pay around a hundred grand. And you can usually "spec it up" to around two hundred grand. As someone who works for a big german car manufacturer and has work with those. I can tell you that what they got is not very advanced and user friendly. The Siemens system is way better and easier to work with.
Tormach’s are great intro level machines. You won’t ever find them in use in real manufacturing lines.They simply aren’t built heavy enough to machine aggressively with. But this is a good thing. The lighter build brings them in at a much lower price point and they really created their own market segment. It’s probably the perfect machine for LMG because long cycle and part times aren’t costing them a lot of money.
That really does mean we need to see the Linus Team in the kitchen!! A charity bake-off though what they give away would be completed builds but yea be a lot of fun watching them go full LMG COOK OFF.
Ok you need to get Steve over and design a case for us together :) You have the tools buddy, and you and Steve both know what’s good and what’s good value. Get to it!! ❤️
Oh thank god you guys got a CNC! It’s been long enough that you guys started doing some light custom machining with third parties and even attempting your own, but I always love seeing new people get brought to the light of manufacturing and craftsmanship!
@@BlueBoy0 Tormach is specifically built and marketed to the entry level buyers, be it garage CNC setups, education, etc. If you start looking into HAAS or Mazak mills you start climbing in price real quick
When he talked about his dream moment in when they finished the home theatre, that made me tear up a bit. I am not a fan of youtube creators and stars that have all the best stuff and fanciest equipment, be we literally watched Linus come from small potatoes to where he is now and he damn well deserves everything that is coming back to him, and his team. I'm really proud of this guy.
Be sure to show us all the tool carnage during the learning curve. :) Glad to see you got a Kurt vise for your set-up. The CNC rep set you guy up pretty well overall. That was a nice chunk of change.
I love that they’ve invested in such a serious piece of kit to make novelty parts for videos. LMG really is 5000 steps beyond any other tech TH-camrs at this point.
Yeah! My father is a VMC programmer and operator for 21 years and whenever I look him starting machine, it just looks like he's preparing a fighter jet for sorties!
I prefer running Okuma or Mazak but I have to add come on Linus don't use a blow gun in a cnc without safety glasses you will end up getting metal in your eyes.
But isn't Tormach just the best option for the DIY-shop, when you don't produce that much. I mean for simple prototyping and tinkering, this thing has all the features they need. LTT doesn't make money per part, but per video. And sure, if your business model is all about automation and reduced cycle times, then it's worth getting a more expensive machine, because it will pay for itself.
When I was doing engineering making CNC stuff was always super fun. Metal solves so many problem if you know how to work it. The down side. It’s a expensive hobby. I’ve been wanting to buy a 30k one for my shop but I don’t have the time right now since I only engineer part time and it’s remote. The fun machining starts once you get into 5 axis machines you could bore out a engine block from a solid piece of aluminum block if you wanted. :)
Amazing content, love the different side of LTT diving into cnc and fabrication. Now I have a ThisOldTony itch I need to deal with. Nice savage industries apron you have there btw, its fun seeing all of the channels I watch start meshing together
@@amahashadow Unfortunately the reason they are that expensive (the tormach) is because the us gov put a 50% tariff on them. They were MUCH more sensibly priced 3-4 years ago. Grizzly has the same problem, all their cheap little manual mills people like to convert are way too expensive now. Just ore more proof that arbitrary tariffs don't work, its VERY easy for someone in the US or canada to make these machines locally, they just don't want to.
That's not a professional machine though, Tormach's really are just glorified toys. They are okay for your garage but you could never compete against someone with an actual professional machine that's a few years old and only costs a few thousand more.
Pricepoint is out to lunch on them. Honestly they're not as capable or rigid as 20 year old 6030s in our area. One of Linus' neighbours is selling two Mazak 6030s from 2000 for $15000 each. Brand new VF2/VF3s from HAAS are similarly priced and financed.
@@joshmdmd I'm guessing that tormach was $40k indexer, work holding, tool holders inclusive. A $15k vf2 probably has clapped out angular contact bearings, was running on 20 year old coolant and has a fubar tslot table with gouges
This is awesome I've been running CNC machines since I was 18 now I run and an 8 axis dual tooling machine and I was trained in CAD. CNC is a great career and more people should have the opportunity to learn this trade.

@@Xlaxsauce I have a strong feeling they won't fully learn how to use it. It's LTT after all, king of just scratching the surface haha. But they sure are nice machines

Great review here in the USA we just bought one for our HS classroom. We teach our Engineering students how to use 3D printers, Laser Engravers, Milling Machines and many other useful pieces of equipment. However the one thing we can not do is have our kids build computers because their is no warranty... crazy the way education works.
The time has come for LTT to make their own OP passive cooled custom PC build!
notice he said "My" new mill? Way to bill your boss for your new toy. Bravo
If he's in charge of the machine and responsible for its operation / safety etc, it's 'his' machine.
@@TheRealDuet tru dat. Him, Alex and Mathias are gonna loove this thing !
@@jivewig my sentiments exactly. This will likely be the only time lienus touches this machine. Unless it for another video clip, for a moment of a second, Alex and crew on the other hand will be using the hell out of it. You can see this in action, on the pyramid build episodes. Lienus comes in for the intro/outro and Alex did the entire builds work, save for lienus holding a bracket while alex welded it (that could have been done by a magnet) lol.
@@crisnmaryfam7344 lmao, finally no more manual threading for custom water blocks 😂.
Oh and heat kills magnets btw, permanently.
So probably you shouldn’t use them for welding.

As a machinist I really enjoy this content and I'm really glad Linus hired someone that knows what they are doing unlike when Luke used to do most of the shop stuff. lol
Same here. Loved watching Linus geek out on a baby version of a machine I use daily.
In fairness Luke might be better on cnc too. I'm a cnc machinist, and would look completely incompetent trying to run a bridgeport...
@@spudglynz I was speaking more in reference to the fact he doesn’t understand proper feeds and speeds when it came to milling stuff on the CNC router. There are pretty good guidelines to go by for spindle and feed speeds rather than just saying “sure that should be good” and rolling with it.
@@troygamblin929 The problem with everyone at LTT, is for some reason, instead of taking time to research shit, they just wing it. Even though they live on TH-cam.

@@aamazinggalle why wouldn't you have your safety glasses on
I Honestly thought it costed a LOT more. it wont be no DMG MORI probably then, put for the usecase they have, it's probably already overkill
I figured it would be something between 100k and 500k
Yeah, when said that, I thought "that's dirt cheap"! Especially for how modern and advanced that is. I was expecting several hundred grand.
@@Locutus494 Ya, my employer paid more for a used waterjet recently.
@@Locutus494 for a proper one from Siemens or dmg mori you pay around a hundred grand. And you can usually "spec it up" to around two hundred grand.
As someone who works for a big german car manufacturer and has work with those. I can tell you that what they got is not very advanced and user friendly. The Siemens system is way better and easier to work with.
Tormach’s are great intro level machines. You won’t ever find them in use in real manufacturing lines.They simply aren’t built heavy enough to machine aggressively with. But this is a good thing. The lighter build brings them in at a much lower price point and they really created their own market segment. It’s probably the perfect machine for LMG because long cycle and part times aren’t costing them a lot of money.
It’s great that Linus has been moving towards proper engineering content
Alex 2 Years Ago: "This Mill is solid AF and great!"
Alex Last Month: "The mill is uh... not great"

lmao lienus probably wont ever touch it again, Alex and crew though, thats another story.
AvE is going to be cursing you for not getting a HAAS. He suffers as the lone Canuck user of a HAAS CNC to this day.
I prefer running Okuma or Mazak but I have to add come on Linus don't use a blow gun in a cnc without safety glasses you will end up getting metal in your eyes.
Truth
My favorite machine is a robo drill. Currently program a Mikron HPM 450u, it's been fun learning the Heidenhain control.
The Haas AvE has is about 8x more expensive though....
But isn't Tormach just the best option for the DIY-shop, when you don't produce that much.
I mean for simple prototyping and tinkering, this thing has all the features they need. LTT doesn't make money per part, but per video.
And sure, if your business model is all about automation and reduced cycle times, then it's worth getting a more expensive machine, because it will pay for itself.
“True 5G experience” fuckin got me gooooood

An Adam Savage apron? Very good, very good indeed 👍
I noticed that to. I was watching and saying "Show the apron".
When I was doing engineering making CNC stuff was always super fun. Metal solves so many problem if you know how to work it. The down side. It’s a expensive hobby. I’ve been wanting to buy a 30k one for my shop but I don’t have the time right now since I only engineer part time and it’s remote. The fun machining starts once you get into 5 axis machines you could bore out a engine block from a solid piece of aluminum block if you wanted. :)
Amazing content, love the different side of LTT diving into cnc and fabrication. Now I have a ThisOldTony itch I need to deal with. Nice savage industries apron you have there btw, its fun seeing all of the channels I watch start meshing together

Lmao fr. i cried a lil when they milled against the cutter aswell.
Fr Tormach is the like harbor freight of machines lol HAAS is even better
@@tylernorton2525 yeah, when he got to the “that’s why they are so expensive”, my first thought was, dmg mori would like a word.
@@amahashadow Unfortunately the reason they are that expensive (the tormach) is because the us gov put a 50% tariff on them. They were MUCH more sensibly priced 3-4 years ago. Grizzly has the same problem, all their cheap little manual mills people like to convert are way too expensive now. Just ore more proof that arbitrary tariffs don't work, its VERY easy for someone in the US or canada to make these machines locally, they just don't want to.
"Only" 10k rpm?!
I didn't realize we time traveled back to the 90s😎
$40k actually sounds reasonable for a professional machine. It’s a lot of money but even a lay person like myself can see the value.
That's not a professional machine though, Tormach's really are just glorified toys. They are okay for your garage but you could never compete against someone with an actual professional machine that's a few years old and only costs a few thousand more.
Pricepoint is out to lunch on them. Honestly they're not as capable or rigid as 20 year old 6030s in our area. One of Linus' neighbours is selling two Mazak 6030s from 2000 for $15000 each. Brand new VF2/VF3s from HAAS are similarly priced and financed.
LOL professional machine ??
@@joshmdmd I'm guessing that tormach was $40k indexer, work holding, tool holders inclusive. A $15k vf2 probably has clapped out angular contact bearings, was running on 20 year old coolant and has a fubar tslot table with gouges
This is awesome I've been running CNC machines since I was 18 now I run and an 8 axis dual tooling machine and I was trained in CAD. CNC is a great career and more people should have the opportunity to learn this trade.
