A few years ago, someone wrote an article in Machinist's Workshop magazine where they did some testing on 'hardening mild steel'. He tried adding salt and various other 'old wives tale' stuff but got no significant changes.

Looking good 👍👍👍small tip for you if you'd like to extend the life of your cutters .whenever working with hot rolled steel remove the mill scale first. mill scale is very hard and wears cutter edges much faster than the steel under it. you can grind it off or if you've got time you can also soak it over night in pure regular household 6% vinegar to dissolve it. if you're in a real hurry you can also remove it in a couple minutes with muratic acid it's fast but much more dangerous than vinegar. you can also remove it by taking a deep enough cut to get totally under it but may not be easy to do with a small mill and still is a lil hard on cutter edges .just remember after either acid treatment as soon as you dry it you need to oil it because it will flash rust instantly anyway just thought I'd pass that along 👍👍👍
I inherited a vise from an old friend that's almost identical to this one your making. The only difference so far is the welded pin, he captured it with a set screw but his vise sits just a little higher from the base and didn't have to keep that part as low profile. I'm enjoying the video !
nice job. Increase your coolant flow. Do it strong enough that you cause the chips to be carried away immediately. This reduces recutting of chips, allows you to increase speeds and feeds, increases your precision and really improves the finishes you can get. I use a mister set for high air flow and low on the synthetic water-soluble mist solution.
I did mine slightly different, I machined the fixed jaw and the body in situ and Ground it round afterwards. I just machined the moving jaw as a separate detail 👍
I took it to my friends shop, and he filled all of this area with the liquid lead oh man oh man three times heavier right now. that thing work like a champion now
I ran out of travel on the table so I had to move the part in the vise to cut the final bit of the slot but the part didn't seat correctly in the vise and I forgot to tap it in with the hammer.
Instead of cutting the relief in the base, you could also chamfer the moving jaw.. does the trick also, and is much less work. Do a Climb milling finishing pass.. that will greatly improve surface quality. The Clamping part could also be turned, Just machine a boss on one end, that fits in the Base, flip it over, make a similar boss on the other side, and make sure the part in between the bosses fits in the base, then, drill and tap a hole in it, and you're golden.
Very cool. I had in mind to make a brass hammer, which i have drawn already. But even though yours is simple, it looks extremely clean and efficient. Great job sir !
Im guessing you are probably already aware of this, but in one of Chris' (Clickspring) videos "antikythera fragment first hardened steel" or something to that effect, he goes over a way to harden mild steel. I replicates his process on a boring bar tool holder i made for the lathe, and it worked very well. I originally started it as he did by taking leather and turning it into coal, but that was rather tedius when charcoal is already available. I used coal from wood and it worked. 6 parts coal, 4 parts salt, 3 parts flour. Add some water to make a paste and put it around your part. Then use clay to envelope all of it, and throw it in a forge or coal fire anything to get it red hot for about a half hour.
Glad to hear it. I remember the video from way back, and I'm glad of worked out for you. Whilst I'm sure it is a good method for hardening, it probably wouldn't suit my part because of the shape. So I went about it slightly differently. Cheers
Can you scrape carbon steel effectively? I have done a small amount of cast iron scraping but I have seen a video of someone attempting to scrape a carbon steel of some sort and it didn't seem to scrape all that nicely.
@@artisanmakes this guy has video about carbon steel scraping th-cam.com/video/FgxjiEBhKvM/w-d-xo.html . Also i belive you will surface harden the part ;)
@@artisanmakes excellent! btw i made a comment that my phone problems kept erroring. barium or sodium carbonate added to your charcoal powder does wonders for case hardening. 25 to 2 ratio by weight. charcoal to carbonate. also a small pinhole in your can eill prevent blowout but youll not lose enough gases to maatter in the least. i case harden a LOT of stuff..prettu much weekly. try it next time i think youll be pleasantly suprised. also cuts your cook time in half.
Kyle, that's been overdue for a long while. He must have a right arm like Popeye. Bigger muscles than the left but it's not from opening spinach cans but cutting huge chunks of steel . Nice job, so far, all the same. Looking forward to solving the hardness problem and the finishing. Regards from Canada's banana belt. 🤔💩🤞🇺🇲🦃🇺🇦🕊️🇨🇦🍌👍
I've gone back to the hacksaw for a lot of things now because of this and it's nicer to take care of your cut than just power it through on a machine, the shed is my happy place
Case hardening or nitriding? I’m curious which one you have access to and how you are going to get the hardened parts to final dimension. Do you have a surface grinder hiding somewhere?
I have watched this several times, instead of using a slitting saw to releive the clamping slit could you not run a dovetail cutter along . This will give a relief
You should let carbide get hot and not use as much coolant. Also for the relief instead of using a slitting saw you could have set the vise on 45 deg angle plates and used an 1/8 endmill.
I usually don't bother with coolant but on this cut it really seemed to help the carbide. And in sure an endmill would have gotten similar enough results to the saw. Many ways to do the same thing
I am an aspiring machine user, that is I have none but I have seen hundreds of videos. What I am amazed over is how "easy" it is to create a working "thing" from scratch. But what I do not get is how the makers can create anything so precise with what to my eye looks like an insane amount of runout and play. Had to pause this video now to comment this as I am at the +- 5 minute mark watching the very visible drill wobble when drilling and tapping the holes. Does this not matter as much as I feel it should?
You can have run out and depending on the application you can work around it or it doesn't matter, or it falls within a large tolerance window (which most good designs should have). That run out was just the nature of the machine before it had its bearings replaced and I worked around it just fine.
I suggest that you modify your design. The keyway for the fixed jaw should be near the back edge and the fasteners should be close to the face of the fixed jaw. Clamping force will impose a lateral load on the fixed jaw which in turn will attempt to tip it backwards. The only resistance to this movement are the fasteners holding jaw down. You're going to experience significant deflection because your fasteners are way to close to the pivot point. When you're done, you should test jaw displacement with a sensitive DTI. I'm confident that you won't be happy with the results.
It is a fair suggestion and ill probably change my cad drawings to reflect it. With that said ive already put this vice thorough its paces and it seems to be quite solid and produce some quite repeatable parts, at least on my relatively small mill. If have a spare moment might run a sim in CATIA and see what deflection I could get. Might be easier since my DTI probably isn't up to snuff for that type of stuff. Cheers
I didn't, I just turned it off until I got super deep in the hole. The flood coolant was just spilling all over the table and floor. It's great stuff to have but it is a very messy thing to use
I use dcgt and dcmt inserts. Not really suited for this work and I'll probably be switching back to tcmt and tcgt inserts when they arrive. I order them on AliExpress for $10
Those endmills in a wobbly jackobs chuck.... no no. I know its just roughing a cbore, but still not safe practice. And you should start taped holes in the mill.
This is a great project. Ironically, I just started to attempt to make the same thing a few weeks ago. Since I didn't have anything other than pictures on the internet to try determine sizes and clamping design, I came to a stall very quickly. Where did you find the drawings you are using? Could you send me the link for them please. I certainly have done things in a different order than you have, hopefully I don't regret that...LOL Looking forward to the rest of this series of videos.

Great project. Wonder how you will re-enforce it. Or make it again and call this a dress rehearsal? Thanks for the heat treatment experiment. That answers my previous episode's question. Oh, and I also have an old drill press vise, so, I'm going to steal your angle vise idea.
From what I have experienced with these specific vises, they tend to made made from steel and hardened, rather than from cast. And cast iron is relatively inexpensive, but most of the cast that is sold commercially at my suppliers is in the form of round bar, rather than flat bar.
Damn dude i have that same blue vise waiting to be thrown through an Amazon window for my return. Although i did think it would be a cool idea to use a shitty vise and make a nice one, but id have to make a mill with a shitty mill first
You take the term manual machining to a whole other level! Obviously a labor of love. Nice work and looking forward to the hardening and final fitment.

Would it be possible tto redesign it so it works with a hinge mechanism to clamp the jaws? So you could get rid of some screws? :)
Where did you get the drawing from ?
What if that's the challenge of this drawing? - To Redraw it to not include screws.

Authors daughter was a materials engineer and said it was due to the surfectant preventing steam bubbles insulating the material
Steam jackets are a well known thing in knifemaking but you can avoid them pretty well by just agitating the part vigorously.
That is a pretty interesting read. I remember watching about the super brine quench method years ago. No surprise that it didn't work :)

Nice. I like the ghetto tilting vice approach.
Using router as a mill... Pure savage I love it.

Remember needing to make one of these in college, part of my toolmakering apprenticeship
11:28 What caused your mistake here? I only ask so that I can be on my guard against doing something similar!
I ran out of travel on the table so I had to move the part in the vise to cut the final bit of the slot but the part didn't seat correctly in the vise and I forgot to tap it in with the hammer.

Curious to know why you didn't just chamfer the top surface instead of relieving both corners?
Its to allow for the grinding wheel to grind up in the corner when it comes time to grind it

You should try doing climb milling, it will give a better finish and tools will last longer.
Personally my preference is to avoid it when manual machining
Do you have plans or 3D CAD for this? I'd love to build one!
Nice 👍 vise
very nice! But why are you using a drill chuck to hold end mills?
There is no issue with using a drill chuck to hold endmills if you are counterboring

I crack up every time I think “if only I had a lathe and a mill I could just make most of the parts I would need for a lathe or mill.”
Somebody buy this man an angle grinder
A brand new oneUH
I suggest that you modify your design. The keyway for the fixed jaw should be near the back edge and the fasteners should be close to the face of the fixed jaw. Clamping force will impose a lateral load on the fixed jaw which in turn will attempt to tip it backwards. The only resistance to this movement are the fasteners holding jaw down. You're going to experience significant deflection because your fasteners are way to close to the pivot point. When you're done, you should test jaw displacement with a sensitive DTI. I'm confident that you won't be happy with the results.
It is a fair suggestion and ill probably change my cad drawings to reflect it. With that said ive already put this vice thorough its paces and it seems to be quite solid and produce some quite repeatable parts, at least on my relatively small mill.
If have a spare moment might run a sim in CATIA and see what deflection I could get. Might be easier since my DTI probably isn't up to snuff for that type of stuff. Cheers
what mill do u have?
It’s a sieg x2.7l
Do you have a print for this?
Those piece look a bit big for case hardening. I'm looking forward to seeing how you pull it off.
Very nice work. Looking forward to the thing in action. For the long through holes, how come you stopped using flood coolant in the later holes?
I didn't, I just turned it off until I got super deep in the hole. The flood coolant was just spilling all over the table and floor. It's great stuff to have but it is a very messy thing to use
Nice work, just wondering, what inserts did you use for your carbide fly cutter?Do you have a link? Cheers
I use dcgt and dcmt inserts. Not really suited for this work and I'll probably be switching back to tcmt and tcgt inserts when they arrive. I order them on AliExpress for $10

Those endmills in a wobbly jackobs chuck.... no no. I know its just roughing a cbore, but still not safe practice. And you should start taped holes in the mill.
I don't see why not, the cutting forces aren't any different to drilling. The wobble was just down to a bad grind on one of the flutes
Great work. Can we sponsor getting this thing precision ground.
Cheers, but its already been ground in. Or as close to ground in as it needs to be.
This is a great project. Ironically, I just started to attempt to make the same thing a few weeks ago.
