Making an ILTMS Branding Iron for Bob Clagett -

- I mysteriously ended up at Bob's house, so I decided to make him an ILikeToMakeStuff branding iron. This project uses basic concepts, with an intermediate twist (adaptive clearing), but you could still get to the same end product using less advanced techniques in 2D CAM programs.
An older branding iron with engraved text: • DIY Electric Branding ...
This goes without saying, but if you're not already subbed to Bob, then clearly you don't like to make stuff and we can't be friends.

"I'm sure it will work. But it looks ridiculous" pretty much sums up my entire life as a maker, lol
Lol that giant bandsaw at the end... Great video Winston! 👍🏻
5:50 - A couple of drops of isopropyl alcohol can really quiet things down and cool the bit. Just be sure you have adequate ventilation. I use kool mist formula 77 mixed at 1:40 with water... however it will leave a slight residue. (Washes off with water.)
Nice cold opening (homage to Bob.) :)
Me: "I'll be Winston.."
Winston: "I'm already Winston"
Best comment ever lol
Looks awesome! I should make one for myself sometime. Anyway, it's great to see you are having a good time on your trip across the U.S.
Great job Winston, that looks amazing.
Excellent video! I've been dealing with the exact same toolpath problem, and I did end up making a bounding box like you did. Really wish I could just have tickbox for it....
cool. looking forward to the next stop
great stuff winston, you're getting closer to Nebraska. If my shop was setup more I'd invite you over.
Hey Winston, thanks for this video. G-Wizard says that a 1.5MM end mill is at 352% deflection with a stepdown of 0.5MM - did you not find this to be a problem? Is G-Wizard just very conservative?
What brand of endmills do you use for metals and woods? btw amazing video!
I've been looking everywhere for a low profile vise like that red one.... any info on it?
It's the one Carbide3D sells. Only modest Holding power, but slimmer than almost everything out there. Little Machine Shop has a few that are a little taller, but worth checking out if you'll regularly be doing metal.
@@WinstonMakes thanks for the reply! I'll look into it.
Where did you get edge finder with 1/4" shank ?
Hello does any body know what vise that is thanks hope somebody can help
"Bob Clagett!" - Tourettes Guy
Winston i would like to know if we can make dies on the nomad3 either bras or steel.
Brass is absolutely manageable. Cuts just like aluminum, just go 30-50% slower. Steel is very tricks, small amounts using endmills smaller than 1/16" are theoretically possible but I have not done any myself.
always clamp down the stop clamp before putting the workpiece in the vise
Dang it, you're right. 🤦
Damn that JPL_Richard guy...so picky! I noticed you set the z with paper, and not the built-in tool setter...and I don't recall you saying why...so, why? PS NICE VISE. PS2 I highly recommend these parallels ($15) at Little Machine Shop, Part Number: 2924 they are within 0.0001 (JPL_Richard approved)
The tool probe changes offset. You still need to set zero the first time.
@@WinstonMakes WHAT? Really? I didn't know that. Holy S....thanks, but I'm like, huh. (so confused now)
Who uses branding irons for inanimate objects though? 🤔

Nice video. Nice branding iron.
Pointing out your host's mistakes for everyone to see... very bad idea.
Shop Hacks if you have ever seen I Like To Make Stuff’s videos, he gladly shows mistakes so others can learn from them too. Though he does not purposefully make mistakes, it’s how he learns and how we can learn too.
@@adamglendye pointing out your own mistakes is good. Pointing our your gracious host's mistakes comes across much differently.
@@shophacks that is fair enough but you can't work like a government in murky muddy water where you can't get anything productive done by not having a transparency of where quality truly resides. This ring's truth on number of issues not just strictly in this video. I believe that's why I carbide 3d took him on was because he pursues results.
Just how I like my women, hot and branded 🤣
