Its crazy awesome seeing everyone using the integral mounting. Its just so much better. I remember finally figuring it out a few years ago with my knife sheath rigs and now seeing people actually seeing it for what it is-is awesome
You are a great instructor! As a former CNC owner/operator, I wish I had you as an instructor when I was learning! Can’t wait to get one of your knife/sheath combos!
TJ, in what seems like a world of underwhelming design, product quality and focus on customer experience, it's wonderful to see someone diligently chasing perfection! Keep up the great work, thanks for sharing your videos, and wishing you every future success!
I love my overland and kydex sheath. It’s an incredible belt knife setup that has changed my mind on fixed blade edc. This man puts his heart and soul into his work. This combo feels like a total custom and he brings the best possible product to market with his impeccable attention to detail and quality control. Seems like he is always thinking and innovating!
Some great ideas! Tip for getting rid of that chip build up in plastic. Run a M05 stop spindle and run the drill in reverse after each hole. SO drill the hole, clear the part, stop spindle, CCW, stop, CW next hole. I cut a lot of Delrin and it builds up quick. A little air blast when running CCW helps to.
It had three holes and a large footprint. The spacing also didn't allow for the use of the double binder post to prevent rotation of the internal portion of the fastener.
I got to ask man, I'm at the point of putting in an order for a cnc mill, I've looked at the 1100mx and the syil... I'm leaning hard to the syil. After running both which would you pick if you were starting over again?
If your budget is over $30k just go with the Syil. Tormachs fits the $10k-$20k niche well but when you option an 1100MX into Syil X7 territory it's hard to justify.
@@tj.schwarz yeah that's kind of how I feel, even starting now the mx1100 basic package is at 27k with no tool changing etc. I appreciate the reply! The syil looks like a much better machine for the price range
Instead of letting the outside bounce around then fly away, add 3 toe clamps to hold the excess. Then you wouldn't need reverse helix endmills. Start your contour on the right side where you have less material and add a ramp to your lead in instead of plunging where you have the most material. You could also use a backside chamfer mill to get that angle your grinding in. The machine should be doing everything possible and you the least amount of hand work. If you use multiple work offsets you can be ruining 3 parts at once.

I really like the design.

That is quite the compliment. Thank you very much for that. I really enjoy what I do and I'm very lucky that other people enjoy it too!
Thats wild. Love it man!

Thanks so much Johnathan!
Excellent explanation of an excellent sheath!
Super glad to see some more content from you. Keep up the great work.

Good info, thank you.
Awesome job so glad I found this channel, and to see someone beat the CNC cause my little one is kicking me hard LOL
Hey, I made your hat. Nice video 👍🏼
Another week another interesting video! Keep it going!
Cool stuff man; thanks for sharing your process. It's impressive how much labor you put into these.
I would be a buyer but you are sold out! Great work!
No idea if you’ll see this or not, but 2x72 scotch bright belts work wonders for cleaning kydex edges.
Pretty slick
Cool video. You should make a stand for the kydex press to make putting the clamps on easier
LOVE IT!!
Very interesting.
Very good video. What’s the secret to the 2x72 being so quiet?
Cool stuff !! Would like to see you do a video on your fiber laser.
I'll do one!
Where do you buy those pill shaped things?
What filament or resin did you use for the double hole jig? It seems holding well the kydex heat.
Just generic resin for an SLA style printer. The FDM stuff will not take the heat!
TJ, what made you switch from the former plastic clip in your previous sheath video to this one?
It had three holes and a large footprint. The spacing also didn't allow for the use of the double binder post to prevent rotation of the internal portion of the fastener.

What eyelet dyes do you use?
I use the ones from KnifeKits.com
