I f**King love how you're all serious and professional. Then as soon as you've proven it works you run off a show off to your wife. About the most relatable guy on the internet 😂
The most impressive thing about this video is that either, A: Wife is genuinely excited about some of these parts or B: Wife is one of the best actors the world has ever seen.
Extra credit project: Design a pantagraph that not only scales the text down, but allows it to be etched on an arc of specified radius instead of just in a boring straight line.
I was thinking the very same thing - in theory, a larger arc (or one for each ratio) to install the letters in should accomplish this (and now that my theory is posted to the internet, it has to be true, right?).
@@queutaih He's already got one of those... Assuming it fits and isn't too tall, he could use his Milling Machine Radius Cutting Fixture to hold the blanks on the Pantograph table...
Your wife being so excited about the project while you're absolutely bored of the cool design and 200% in "let it just end" mode is adorable. More hoochie daddy shorts. She knew what she was doing.
I work in a transmission factory and I showed your channel to the machinist that are here, they're all in love with this project as we used literally the same book to design our gear cutters.
Yeah, but then again your cat won't get angry with you if you decide to screw around in the shop all day and don't help out around the house. Unless the litter box doesn't get cleaned, of course. Then you might get "messages" in your bed.
Please keep your wife involved with all your projects. The enthusiasm and humor she brings to the video work very well with your technical knowledge and dry humor.
I hope you realised, judging by the comments that your wife is a permanent segment for your videos - Ever since she stopped by to watch your things it added so much colour to this videos. Well done team!
I’m not a machinist at all and while I understood what you were working towards I had no idea what the thing you’ve been making to make the relief cuts was and now seeing it working blew my mind it’s so smart and works so well!
Making a tool to make a tool to make gears, 2 side projects and Ms IM! This has got to be one of the best videos you've made, and the best is that's just one part of an awesome series yet to reach its culmination!
And don't forget, that tool was made to make a tool to make a gear, which will (I predict) be a change gear for yet another tool. Dude likes tools, and I can't say I blame him. We all use tools. But there's tools we can use outside of the shop! I want to see him build a coffee grinder. He's always drinking coffee in his videos. If I remember correctly, he's even had coffee company sponsors! Now @InheritanceMachining , wouldn't it be satisfying to drink a cup of coffee who's beans were ground with a high precision machine (capable of producing grounds with a narrow and finely adjustable particle size distribution) that YOU built? Yeah, uhuh, just you sit with that.
Dude, that is awesome: both the machining and the awe of your lovely spouse as she beholds your fantastic machining abilities. Kudos to both of you and indeed, for making gear cutter cutters.
I’m on board with other commenters-I love these videos and scan my feed waiting for whatever new content arrives. But while I’m quietly sitting here watching the process in awe, your darling wife is really enjoying it and clearly getting into it. I’ve been visited by my better half a few times in my shop while working on some old car and she doesn’t usually get too excited until I lay down some paint or finish a project like dropping in a new engine (which she’s helped with a few times in the past). All I’m sayin here is I adore this.
All jokes aside, you've really inspired me to begin my machining hobby. Today, I'll take my first tentative steps by donning my hoochie shorts and finally learning how to spell enjuneering.
i know everyone says this, but the absolutely adorableness of your interactions with your wife are the best parts of your videos, and i really hope she knows it. you are one lucky man. edit: she is also a really lucky woman, and i hope you know it.
I've only just found you channel like a year ago. But it's amazing to see your work. We honor our grandparents/parents by using their tools and the skills they teach us, and you're clearly doing that. I have no doubt your grandfather would be pretty chuffed to see you knocking it out of the park in the shop. I also love the way your wife gasses you up. Having the support of out loved ones makes us unstoppable. Keep on doing what you do and I'll keep watching!
Your intro explanation and videography was especially impressive on this video. I swear you level up every new video, it's impressive and definitely proves that you deserve every one of the 411k subs you have (and more)!
Beautiful work as always my friend. The pantograph was SUCH a classy touch. Seeing your wife be so supportive and excited about your work is awesome! (You owe us some hoochie daddy short shots)
I love the way each project goes to make the next part, for the next part, eventually up to something big. I expect nothing but a big, giant project when you're done with your gears! Cheers to your wife for being actually impressed and excited for your work, truly one in a million.
I've spent the last 2 days watching videos on gears and then this pops up in my subscription feed. If your next video is a purchasing guide for mini mills and lathes I'll need to start looking over my shoulder for cameras!
@@szymonjastrzebski2909 I think Jake was talking about making the gear cutter, which has straight flanks, so you could use either side of a V tool (whose included angle was equal to the pressure angle of the gear) to machine one side of the gear cutter.
I think that it is very cool that your wife understands and even enjoys engineering concepts! Who would have thought that making a gear was so involved? They look so simple at first glance.
As I recall, Chris over at ClickSpring made his own involute cutter, but instead of cutting the relief with a step system like this, simply took the unhardened cutter back to the rotary table, and milled the relief behind the point. That wouldn't relieve the entire curve, but I think his point was that most of the cutting action that needs the relief is in the depth portion of the cutting. All that said, it's probably time to go back and re-view his series of videos on that process....
@@ahfreebird It's even easier if you just buy them at standard sizes that happen to be in stock. They might not do exactly what you want, but that's not important, right? ;-)
This channel always helps inspire me when im feeling burnt out from the current work load.. and I've said it before and I'll say it again its always such fun to hear you and your good lady humouously sparring whilst enthusing over projects she has perfected the dead pan "yes dear" tone while clearly loving how excited you are. It's a beautiful thing you found each other.
Your wife's reactions are amazing! Love and take care of each other. It's rare to see support like this. And the video is perfect as always. Not long ago I realized that I also like your videos because you don’t hide your mistakes, if something goes wrong, you show it, work on the mistakes and continue. It deserves respect.
It is 9:30PM in Arizona and I was getting ready to turn off my computer and go to bed. Then I saw your NEW video and it was posted a few hours ago. Bed can wait. As a retired tool & die maker your videos are the best! and I certainly miss the trade!
I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ your channel, my only complaint is that there is not enough of it. I have watched every single episode that you have made and it feels like FOREVER since the last episode. Please film more, much more.
The introduction/exposition section was _fire._ I was smiling the entire time. And I love that you've started to bring your wife in to demonstrate and express enthusiasm. Overall, I just love how your presentation has been evolving (no need to refer to your camerawork and machining - those were top quality from the start).
That "squeeze in a lesson" got a juvenile giggle from me. I'm in my late 30s on the outside, but there's always a part of me that's 13 on the inside. 😂
Yup. I love how there's two machinist TH-camrs making videos about this and, because their storytelling styles are so different, both sets of videos are absolutely worth watching.
Brandon, I had no idea what that contraption was that you made in previous videos. Now that I see it in action, I am amazed and delighted. What a fabulous project, and I am so impressed with the beautiful gears you are making!
Yeah, would have been cool to have the text 3D printed as the template in an arc ,so the text would be curved on the gear cutters as well. I don't think there is an easy and fast way to curve the text otherwise, you would have to readjust the gear cutter after every single letter.
This is a really cool idea. 3D print the entire alphabet in various degree offsets left and right so you could build arced lettering for the pantograph to copy over… although storing that many unique letters for it would be a bit of a nightmare
@@mrsockyman An alternative might be to create a set of letters that are all uniformly spaced and the sides are all angled for a given center diameter, then a mounting plate to set them up in a circle, center the circle under the pointer, and adjust the center and scale of what you're lettering so that the pantograph cutter ends up where you're looking for the lettering to be. You end up with a single set of however many letters you want and (go get a Scrabble set and use the number value of each letter to divide 10 by (or whatever the value of Q or Z are) and make up that many of that letter. Numbers might be a different issue, but you should end up with something like 38-40 letters, numbers and required punctuation. More if you are going to include various other symbols in machining such as theta, center marking, etc. Which simplifies thins from trying to decide do I need 360 of these for any angle on the pantograph, and how am I going to align everything so that the cut ends up where I want it for each letter. One of the interesting things of watching JSK-koubou, is the realization of just how much you can do with what seem like really basic tools, if you go at using them from the perspective of using precision as your own mindset.
Gotta be one of my new favourite channels started watching a few weeks ago and I binged all videos in like 2 days and just sit at the edge of my seat waiting for the next one. There is something so awe inspiring about your level of detail and precision, close enough is hardly a word in your shop
Really? Circles? That is all you need to cut gears? Ridonculous, and there I was writing a piece-wise approximation for some low duty laser cut gears. Also having a spouse with such a keen interest in your hobby is a godsend!
@@CrazyHatDave3000 yeah the Clickspring video is a pretty good one… completely different process for achieving remarkably similar results! Clickspring gets points for having an accent that’s like butter dripping off a hot biscuit, but Brandon gets extra points for working some toilet-time into a video (in a sponsor’s ad, no less) and for his wife’s giddy enthusiasm for his hobby projects!
Piecewise approximation!? The math to generate an involute is (relatively) straightforward. Unless you're talking about the transition from tooth face to root radius I suppose.
@@ahfreebirdno need for anything fancy if you use a hobber or shaper to generate the involute curve instead of approximating it. Gashing teeth is great, but the only way to get a perfect involute curve is to generate it in the part itself.
hey man! i’ve been watching you for a while now, i make and design gears for a living. it’s awesome to see that you are getting into gear manufacturing! not enough people know about what truly goes into making a gear. great video.
"I actually made five of them, which is why this project has taken so long, and the stupid thing is I only need one of them." - Brandon, 2024 That's his grandfather's blood showing itself, right there. I'm sure he's proud.
This is one of the best machining videos I watched.. The logic behind the gear shape, their cutters shape, their cutters cutting shape all has been a great learning (I am not a mechanical engineer). Then the awesome exchange with your wife is a joy to watch.. 🎉
Okay, that was cool. My dad did precision inspection for Boeing for 30+ years, so I know a lot of the words, but to actually watch things being made is fascinating to me. I've shared your channel with him because he's a precision nerd too. Thanks for what you do, sir.
After following the several project to get to this point, and kind of understanding what they are designed to do. It is even more impressive to see it actually doing what it was made for. I really enjoyed this process, the shear amount of work and effort you put in to these projects and the end results is even more remarkable. Thank you.
18:05 that was exactly my reaction when I saw the finished gear cutter, don't know anything about engeneering or machining, stumbled across this channel by accident, and I've been mesmerized by the beauty of these fine pieces
ive been dutifully watching all your videos for a long time and i have to say i love your show and how you show things. As a cnc machinist that has made alot of cool things i sit in awe everytime you make something. Out of every video though this is has to be my favorite, i never really knew how gears were made prior to this series and im exited for the rest of it, thank you for deciding to turn on the camera and show everyone how things are made!
I always look forward to Fridays hoping for a new video from you and this one was by far the coolest. Seeing it all come together over the past months, using all of your machines, putting the engraver to work, and finally seeing what the eccentric clicky thing was for. Absolutely awesome video. I've been a precision machinist for 15 years and watching what you do and your enthusiasm for engineering and building things is truly inspiring.
I absolutely love how excited your wife is! I don't know if that's genuine or if she's playing it up for the video but either way good for you, having a partner that can show interest in your interests that is (or seems) genuine is a special thing! P.S. Sorry about the several comments, hopefully it is just good for your video engagement 😅 I got to certain parts of the video and felt compelled to add my 2 cents
The one person I am willing to sit through an ad read of it you. Mostly because you manage to mix in a bunch of humour while still getting the points across
I must say the last video showing your tool working didn't do it justice. Seeing it working in the lathe cutting your reliefs was just beautiful. Great job!!!
I've been binging your channel for the last 3 weeks or so (and ordered a shirt in the process), and I have to tell you how much I've enjoyed this. Looking forward to the gears!
Me and my long time partner just got engaged, partly because I was thinking how cute you two are, and my partner is allways so excited to see what I’ve built (mostly robots) and I’m allways excited to see what she makes too (sewing and crochet). And I was like damn, can’t let this girl go, we can have a life like IH! Cheers guys, y’all are so clearly deeply in love. Cool gear cutter!! That relief mechanism is… wild, it’s wild. Even the fiancé thinks it’s rad!
I love that you make tools instead of products. I cobbled together a milling machine that holds my '50s 10" Atlas lathe and take advantage of the power feeds of the lathe for the table attached to the tool post. Everyone asked what I was going to make with it. My response was the mill was the project. But then I made v blocks to hold a acme lead screw for the lathe and machined and cut the keyway for the cross feed in my lathe. Then made a fly cutter to mill the table. None are at your quality level because I never was a machinist. I learn from you, Blondi Hacks, Abom79 Joe Pie and AVE. I also bought some gear cutters for the lathe because I could only make 16tpi or .0015" per rpm. Never made a gear because I bought the ELS components from Clough 42. Now I dial in the tpi, metric or imperial, or thou per revolution. Check it out. For you to make all that stuff to make gear cutters, which were $115 in my case, shows it's the journey, not the destination. Already love your wife. Chive on.
Great series (they are all good, and all very re watchable). I enjoy the appearance of Mrs IM, and your interactions as you explain and see her appreciate the various achievements. Really enjoying the content.

your videos never old to watch... they could be 30 hours instead of 30 mins and I'd still watch every second
Clickspring has an amazing video on EXACTLY this!
Yup. I love how there's two machinist TH-camrs making videos about this and, because their storytelling styles are so different, both sets of videos are absolutely worth watching.
... but Clickspring make tiny gears for tiny things, while Inheritance Machining makes the manly stuff, and A-Bomb makes the GIGANTIC stuff.
@@lourias principles apply across scale.
@@calypsobikes1 Duh!
as does thisoldtony.
That's old school! Amazing accomplishment. Thanks for sharing!
first 10 seconds, you have me down on the floor. Nice.
Brandon,
I had no idea what that contraption was that you made in previous videos. Now that I see it in action, I am amazed and delighted. What a fabulous project, and I am so impressed with the beautiful gears you are making!
Combining the pantograph with a 3d print would be such a sweet combination of new and old technology
Yeah, would have been cool to have the text 3D printed as the template in an arc ,so the text would be curved on the gear cutters as well. I don't think there is an easy and fast way to curve the text otherwise, you would have to readjust the gear cutter after every single letter.
This is a really cool idea. 3D print the entire alphabet in various degree offsets left and right so you could build arced lettering for the pantograph to copy over… although storing that many unique letters for it would be a bit of a nightmare
@@millinoid2151 Probably need a side project for a sane storage system...
@millinoid2151 it's a great blend of one of the cheapest cnc machines, with elegant manual machining
@@mrsockyman An alternative might be to create a set of letters that are all uniformly spaced and the sides are all angled for a given center diameter, then a mounting plate to set them up in a circle, center the circle under the pointer, and adjust the center and scale of what you're lettering so that the pantograph cutter ends up where you're looking for the lettering to be. You end up with a single set of however many letters you want and (go get a Scrabble set and use the number value of each letter to divide 10 by (or whatever the value of Q or Z are) and make up that many of that letter. Numbers might be a different issue, but you should end up with something like 38-40 letters, numbers and required punctuation. More if you are going to include various other symbols in machining such as theta, center marking, etc. Which simplifies thins from trying to decide do I need 360 of these for any angle on the pantograph, and how am I going to align everything so that the cut ends up where I want it for each letter.
One of the interesting things of watching JSK-koubou, is the realization of just how much you can do with what seem like really basic tools, if you go at using them from the perspective of using precision as your own mindset.
Gotta be one of my new favourite channels started watching a few weeks ago and I binged all videos in like 2 days and just sit at the edge of my seat waiting for the next one. There is something so awe inspiring about your level of detail and precision, close enough is hardly a word in your shop
The only thing I’d like better about your “simple lettering” (which looks amazing btw) is if it were curved around the center hole.
the enthusiasm from your wife is incredible! You are a very lucky man! love all your videos
Really? Circles? That is all you need to cut gears? Ridonculous, and there I was writing a piece-wise approximation for some low duty laser cut gears.
Also having a spouse with such a keen interest in your hobby is a godsend!
There is another really good video on this topic over on the Click Spring channel.
@@CrazyHatDave3000
yeah the Clickspring video is a pretty good one… completely different process for achieving remarkably similar results! Clickspring gets points for having an accent that’s like butter dripping off a hot biscuit, but Brandon gets extra points for working some toilet-time into a video (in a sponsor’s ad, no less) and for his wife’s giddy enthusiasm for his hobby projects!
Piecewise approximation!? The math to generate an involute is (relatively) straightforward. Unless you're talking about the transition from tooth face to root radius I suppose.
CAD I have can't do freeform parametric curves, so I've made it out of 10 segments,worked out just fine.
@@ahfreebirdno need for anything fancy if you use a hobber or shaper to generate the involute curve instead of approximating it. Gashing teeth is great, but the only way to get a perfect involute curve is to generate it in the part itself.
hey man! i’ve been watching you for a while now, i make and design gears for a living. it’s awesome to see that you are getting into gear manufacturing! not enough people know about what truly goes into making a gear. great video.
"I actually made five of them, which is why this project has taken so long, and the stupid thing is I only need one of them." - Brandon, 2024
That's his grandfather's blood showing itself, right there. I'm sure he's proud.
Love it. I can't thank you enough for this project. Thanks to your wife as well for her kind nature and understanding. Much appreciated.
This video feels different
I think it's because the intro is missing
This is one of the best machining videos I watched.. The logic behind the gear shape, their cutters shape, their cutters cutting shape all has been a great learning (I am not a mechanical engineer). Then the awesome exchange with your wife is a joy to watch.. 🎉
Okay, that was cool. My dad did precision inspection for Boeing for 30+ years, so I know a lot of the words, but to actually watch things being made is fascinating to me. I've shared your channel with him because he's a precision nerd too. Thanks for what you do, sir.
After following the several project to get to this point, and kind of understanding what they are designed to do. It is even more impressive to see it actually doing what it was made for. I really enjoyed this process, the shear amount of work and effort you put in to these projects and the end results is even more remarkable. Thank you.
It's so wonderful how enthusiastic your wife is about your work!
18:05 that was exactly my reaction when I saw the finished gear cutter, don't know anything about engeneering or machining, stumbled across this channel by accident, and I've been mesmerized by the beauty of these fine pieces
Your wife's enthusiasm made me a subscriber. Excellent workmanship.
Man, being able to do all this in your garage is fantastic!!!!
Your wife support is on another level !!
ive been dutifully watching all your videos for a long time and i have to say i love your show and how you show things. As a cnc machinist that has made alot of cool things i sit in awe everytime you make something. Out of every video though this is has to be my favorite, i never really knew how gears were made prior to this series and im exited for the rest of it, thank you for deciding to turn on the camera and show everyone how things are made!
Its amazing how much the quality of my day improves with a new IM video.
I always look forward to Fridays hoping for a new video from you and this one was by far the coolest. Seeing it all come together over the past months, using all of your machines, putting the engraver to work, and finally seeing what the eccentric clicky thing was for. Absolutely awesome video. I've been a precision machinist for 15 years and watching what you do and your enthusiasm for engineering and building things is truly inspiring.
I absolutely love how excited your wife is! I don't know if that's genuine or if she's playing it up for the video but either way good for you, having a partner that can show interest in your interests that is (or seems) genuine is a special thing!
P.S. Sorry about the several comments, hopefully it is just good for your video engagement 😅 I got to certain parts of the video and felt compelled to add my 2 cents
I'm blown away.
That was way more daunting than anyone would actually know. I salute you (and your wife).
The one person I am willing to sit through an ad read of it you. Mostly because you manage to mix in a bunch of humour while still getting the points across
This was worth the wait!
Also, you and your wife have amazing on-camera chemistry. Your back and forth always make me smile.
FANTASTIC TOOL! An amazing job you've done in this project. It is seriously impressive all that you've accomplished in your home shop.
The way your partner is so enthusiastic about your work. Its so amazing.
This channel keeps getting better and better every video .
I must say the last video showing your tool working didn't do it justice. Seeing it working in the lathe cutting your reliefs was just beautiful. Great job!!!
I've been binging your channel for the last 3 weeks or so (and ordered a shirt in the process), and I have to tell you how much I've enjoyed this. Looking forward to the gears!
At 16:35, suddenly 2.6 videos made total sense, and the motion of the Eureka in removing the blue was sublime to behold :)
Me and my long time partner just got engaged, partly because I was thinking how cute you two are, and my partner is allways so excited to see what I’ve built (mostly robots) and I’m allways excited to see what she makes too (sewing and crochet). And I was like damn, can’t let this girl go, we can have a life like IH!
Cheers guys, y’all are so clearly deeply in love.
Cool gear cutter!! That relief mechanism is… wild, it’s wild. Even the fiancé thinks it’s rad!
very enjoyable episode, enjoyed the humor, the project, and amazed your wife supports and encourages.
I don't remember much from my time in a machine shop, but your videos are always excellent and fun to watch.
I love that you make tools instead of products. I cobbled together a milling machine that holds my '50s 10" Atlas lathe and take advantage of the power feeds of the lathe for the table attached to the tool post. Everyone asked what I was going to make with it. My response was the mill was the project. But then I made v blocks to hold a acme lead screw for the lathe and machined and cut the keyway for the cross feed in my lathe. Then made a fly cutter to mill the table. None are at your quality level because I never was a machinist. I learn from you, Blondi Hacks, Abom79 Joe Pie and AVE. I also bought some gear cutters for the lathe because I could only make 16tpi or .0015" per rpm. Never made a gear because I bought the ELS components from Clough 42. Now I dial in the tpi, metric or imperial, or thou per revolution. Check it out. For you to make all that stuff to make gear cutters, which were $115 in my case, shows it's the journey, not the destination. Already love your wife. Chive on.
Every time your wife expresses unadulterated joy and genuine fascination at what you do and what you've made it adds a year to my life
Great series (they are all good, and all very re watchable). I enjoy the appearance of Mrs IM, and your interactions as you explain and see her appreciate the various achievements. Really enjoying the content.
