I definitely like the hour long videos where you guys go in depth about tool choices, reasoning behind the decisions you guys make, and just general thought processes. I have been working with a Tormach 1100 mx, as well as a Tormach 15L slant lathe, and I have learned the majority of how to run those machines through both the academy and those longer videos you guys post. Seeing the very start to a perfect part is always satisfying in my eyes!
2:46 Titan, you could start a patreon that allows people to pay $5-$10 a month to see the longer videos all together and more behind the scenes/raw footage. Your editors could just stitch the footage together and not have to edit much else. I’d pay for those videos.
i am a design engineer and our company does a lot of CNC machining. but it's fun to see the fun stuff you guys build instead of the boring stuff we make.
Long form second channel with long only videos seems to be the way to go. Folks who like them "shorts" can stick around here, whilst the folks enjoying long form videos have a place to turn to.
Many components come together to make CNC machines possible. Without computers, there would be no CNC. Yet, most people-outside of this audience-rarely stop to consider how their everyday 'things' are made, nor do they seem to care, especially in the U.S. market (just my observation). The reality is that a lot is taken for granted. Almost everything we see and use today has gone through some form of manufacturing process-unless you whittle it by hand, sew it yourself, or craft it through traditional means. Manufacturing is a necessity, but it takes the efforts of many skilled trades to make it all happen. Thank you guys for raising awareness and uplifting these crucial industries that often go unnoticed. Much love and gratitude 💥💪
You could put the long ones on a non promoted ( or whatever yooutube call it )Playlist So you have the short one that do good with a lot of people. And the ones that want the long ones can go there and watch the long one. Everyone happy
Ok so I have a fun one for you. I’m curious if you tackle the problem the same way I did. Had some cast white nylon that was super soft. The part wasn’t too complicated, mill to correct width, put a 7mm chamfer along the length of the part. Then two 8mm holes with 20mm counterbores 7mm deep. The problem we ran into was coolant. If we used coolant on the material at all it would impregnate the material and cause it to swell. Then would eventually evaporate out and the part would shrink. My solution was to use single flute endmills to spiral interpolate all the holes and counterbores with an air blaster aimed at the cutter.
I agree with you on the shorter videos, I have work to do and I prefer 20-30 min videos and never watch the hour long ones. It sounds finicky but I just dont have an hour to spare just watching a video. I dont even watch TV that long, I watch the ball games in short intervals in between doing other things. Thanks for all the effort. Charles
Love your explanation about the video style you make, at the end of the day, It's your channel and your decision. Maybe longer videos are more useful for your academy with more in-depth information. Enjoy your weekend :)
It would be cool to have a gopro set up with a pc. For 1 station, 1 part type or multiple and have a live stream set up start to end. I bet lots of people would watch.
What if you do a full machining from beginning to end and you cut them into shorter videos from part 1 to part end in several individual episode videos?................
As I work with manufacturers, they often ask for prints complete with GD&T dimensioning. I tell them most high-end machining needs only precise CAD model files. As you are well aware, prints are actually a waste of time/money. I would like you to take or create a modeled part and create a CAM program. Then, perform a verification of machined tolerance before actual cutting, once verified, go directly into the machining process. Then, follow the finished part to the CMM, using the model CAD model to verify the part is as modeled. I would very much like to see this and would then be able to pass your video on to the manufacturing company. This would create not only less expensive parts but the turnaround time in half or less. This is especially relevant when using 5 axis machining.
Sorry you're wrong. Prints are not a waste of time. Models don't usually have tolerances included within the model data. How are the manufactures/machinists supposed to know what the relevant dimensions are? I can spend all day taking dimensions from a model. Are they all going to be relevant to the form, fit and function of the part in it's final use case? Who knows? That is what the print tells me. GD&T was specifically developed to make sure that parts meet the design intent. Things like true position (along with material condition call outs) is a better way to tolerance a position of a hole vs using just X/Y coordinates. What does this even mean? "Then, perform a verification of machined tolerance before actual cutting,"
I guess a lot of people only watch for the insane cuts you guys do and the part that is actually interested in seeing every step is only a small percentage. these are probably ppl who work with machines everyday. maybe you can put out a long video of the project when all the parts are done? I guess theres way more footage that we just dont get to see
Hey Titan I noticed you got a pretty fancy belt buckle on and I know those Texans love that belt buckles I'm from New York Long Island I've been watching your videos for a pretty long time anyway I have a question did you CNC and make that belt buckle and if not you should make your own CNC belt buckle out of titanium or stainless steel it should say either like CNC or a whole bunch of them like Titan The King of CNC or CNC BOOM or maybe boom CNC should be for Barry just kidding Barry I still love you barry you know stainless steel shines up very very well if you have to polish it it starts shining up with like 600 grit sandpaper forget about compound it's still even shiny it will compound but I'm sure some diamond tooling finishing passes will make it shine stupid shiny
Hey man! Thanks for the ‘shout out’? But as some in the comments say, just open a second channel and upload videos with minimal editing and see how much engagement you get..Seems like a ‘win-win’ to me..
I've been doing this business for the last 35 years. We have taps that are high performance to treadmill a part takes too much time.. it's all about the feet and speeds.. the only time I do treadmilling is with exotic materials like hardened materials and titanium... Most of this work is a fourth axis work not 5-axis... Too much time wasted.
for the long format, maybe get newbies involved. like take a 3 hour process and make 6 videos showing a litteral novice how to do it, that way your training a person not an audience
Hey Titan and everybody else is this the your app I don't think it is I don't remember you saying that you had an app but they're stealing your symbol or academy thing it's on Google Play I think they're charging money for it I screenshot it I'm trying to insert the pictures
Why not make another channel just for the hour long stuff that you were talking about. That way those who want that content, can get it.
I could be wrong but I think like 4-5 years ago they tried it and they got almost no views so probably wasn’t worth there time
I am a precision mechanic in Costa Rica and I love the work you do, you are the best

I like the multiple 25-35 min videos for machining. 👍

you could post the hour long video on a separate channel to not hurt this one
Yes they so should and they should call it TITANS OF CNC DEEP DIVE

When will you have the CNC Expert app ready for iOS and Android?

You could make a mk2 channel. A lot of TH-camrs seem to be doing that for their longer videos over 1 hour in length.
Could you make one out of stainless? For heavy metal drums?

Stay away from ISO auditors. Lol.
Titans of TH-cam videos.
Breaking it down.
2nd channel for longer vids?
Why no cooling?!?

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
This goes to 11. Thanks for sectioning knowledge.
T6 aluminum is a nightmare to keep flatness, roughing can be like flipping a burger a dozen times.
Do you guys have a video on coolant management? Not a glorious topic, but as my site’s “coolant guy” I’m curious how you monitor your coolants :)
We do. Go to our site/fundamentals
@@barrysetzer Found them, thanks Barry!

Darn! I was hoping you would start from a solid block of metal!
So do your shorter videos then on your b channel do the hour long crazy in-depth ones for us with the tissums 😊

second channel for longer vids, vlogs, tours ect...
keep the clickbait on the main channel
Students learning robotics should all study basic machine shop practices for at least two or more semesters!

ps Would love a hard scaling vid from you guys
So educational

Do your employees get any of the revenue from the TH-cam videos?
Lol if only you knew how little that amount is versus our salaries
@@barrysetzer Is your salary over 150K plus benefits?
@@thomasmedlin2881 more.

@ nah its pretty awesome
Would look good sand blasted
Boom! ❤
Spoiler... they're not finishing it, they're talking about finishing it.
You guys are awesome but TH-cam algorithm not so much.
