Love those flex head ratchets, you can fold the handle, then use two hands on the handle to spin it like you do with a speed handle. Faster than an air ratchet, given room to use and some experience.
I'm guessing there used to be a second, weaker spring on the back side of the reduced section inside the barrel. When someone took it apart, or maybe when it broke, the spring went sproing across the shop it's now under a cabinet somewhere. The spring you've got provides the main detenting force; the second spring takes up the slop and provides some resistance for the button-pushing.
No, no second spring or missing parts and yes, the spring is supposed to be in the front. When they are installed, the plunger is proloading the spring and all slop is removed and the assembly works flawlessly. The only reason I know is because we use to have a large detent locking turntable at work that had a release detent mechanism identical to that one in it got broken at the mount collar just like that one did and we did the same thing.... Machined a new body from bar stock... Not sure if every application is / was the same but for our turntable, when it was properly adjusted and installed, the release lever sat at about a 25° relative to the body and this gave just enough movement that when the lever was parallel to the body (squeezed as much as it would go), the detent would just release from the pocket it was in on the table. Basically the adjustment of the plunger threads adjusts the amount of preload tension (well compression) was on the spring when installed and the adjustment on the clevis threads set the angle that the release lever was at when installed.
I’m 39 and I don’t know how I ever made it through life with out these kind of TH-cam videos. I’m a framer by trade, but I’ve rebuilt my engine in my mustang as well as replaced the transmission and clutch amongst a bunch of other things. I learned how to do body work from TH-cam too. Anyways I just wanted to say I love your content. I’ve learned a lot from you and I’ll be honest once and a while you go over my head but for the most part I pick up what you’re putting down. Keep up the awesome work!!
"Repent! Repent in the tent!" sayeth the...uhh..umm..the supervisor of everything. "Repent your recent decadent intent to use a detent as your content for entertainment during lent!" And it was good. A party foul had been averted.
You probably know this but I'm going to write it anyway. The style torque wrench you have (or torque yank as we used to call them) actually use a pivot block instead of detent. Think of holding two blocks together and you press them together. Now push one of them in a perpendicular direction while squeezing. The more you squeeze, the harder it is to get them to pivot. Snap on actually made another type that had a slip mechanism similar to the center punch too. This comment is why I don't have friends.
It's clean the oiler hasn't been used, because it's not clogged up with GREASE :) Honestly I think if we called them Greasers they'd actually have more oil put in them haha.
You put so many little details into your works, but the record hiss/pop ... wow! I watch several of these multiple times to catch all the educational, humorous, and/or insightful bits. Yes, even in the "fillers". Thank you again and again for producing these.
I appreciate the extra effort you put in to your videos. Manufacturing tools and mechanisms provides us with that extra layer of understanding above and beyond the what disassembly could ever provide
Be careful Tony - I think people are just pretending not to know stuff and are leaving comments on your videos to guilt-trip you into making another one. They should be ashamed of themselves. Anyway, how do they make those ball bearings on the detents so round ?
When they take the block of steel, wrapped in a cloth, and hit it with a hammer, they use exactly the right hammer and hit it exactly right. Result is exactly-sized, exactly-round ball bearings. Of course, this is mostly done on an industrial scale. A clue about Tony's day job, maybe?
Serious answer: Drop towers. If you drop a liquid, it forms a perfect sphere while it's falling. So mostly they just build really big towers (The afformentione "Drop towers") and sprinkle liquid steel/ally inside it. It forms a sphere and solidifies as it falls.
@@joelthefrog1 I'm not sure where you got that idea from as shot towers are only suitable for making lead shot. Ball bearings are made using a mechanical process, see the video linked in the comment above.
So...um...I don't think we ever got an answer....does the spring go in the front or the back? Does one press the lever to undo it or pull the lever to undo it?
I had no idea that's what a spring detent was called... NOW I CAN BUY THEM. I have several projects which need these and always forgot to ask someone who might know... Thanks Tony.
I love the way you produce and edit your videos. It must take hrs & hrs to put these videos together and I’m sure everyone knows that and appreciates your hard work. You have the imagination of the old cartoonists. It’s genius? Brilliant content too. By far the best channel on TH-cam. Thanks again for uploading Tony.
Of course you can. These things are called *spring* detents because they hold back spring. Studies have shown that they reach maximum efficacy if you deploy them a short while (two to three weeks) before spring would nominally begin. But be careful - spring detents cannot hold back spring forever.
I have wondered for years how those little balls in ratchets snd extensions are held in place. It never occurred to me that my occasionally used skills at bezel setting cabochon stones would be used in tool construction. Thanks Tony!
Take an old socket and grind a bevel around one end. Use the socket along a hammer (or a 20 ton press as long as it isn't a boring grayish-color) and swage the detent hole. The socket will self-center on the ball and simultaneously hold it in while you swage it.
Your videos absolutely crack me up. Very informative and definitely keeps me laughing my _ _ _ off. Enjoyed every min of it. Please never change your format.
Well, I'm only 50 percent human but..... to me that looks like the gadget on the bottom, or top, of double doors to lock them. What was it you said it is ? 😊 Dangit, I believe you could make a good video about ANYTHING, good show ol chap, good show ! 😊 Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍 👍
You know what, that actually seems like a pretty reasonable assumption. I was wondering why the level you pressed down was damn near 45* to the body of the part, but it would make sense if its mounted upright and you press it with your foot. I haven't seen too too many of them but the ones I have usually have that similar shaped pin head and it might explain why there is so much play if it doesnt affect how it operates.
Sometimes when they wear out all you have to do for a bit extra use is to re-bend that spring leaf. Of course that work hardens it and eventually it'll break when you go to bend it again. But it's a quicker fix than replacing it.
That is weird - just checking ... and there it was!!! In my haste I thought it said "Spring loaded DENTISTS". I guessed you were just filling in again.
+Josh Myer [Q] Did you hear the one about a constipated mathematician? [A] He worked it out with a pencil. Ask that of the pencil, and it will find it boring. :
If I were a marketeer I would add a checkvalve to make sure the checkvalve itself keeps getting lubricated. That would make the part look more advanced. And don't forget the BPA-free foodsafe recycled plastic handle that gets rotten up within 3 months. You don't want this part to outlast it's warranty period!
Neat! One of my first jobs was working at a torque wrench factory. My job was installing the socket retention balls. And it went like you said, drop the spring in, then the BB, then stake the edge of the hole. It wasn't a press though, it was more like a huge power hammer that would come down and smash the edge of the hole in less than a second.
A similar principle is used in the roller delayed HK G3 battle rifle, under 20 + tons of pressure but locked by the rollers until it is safe to open the breach.
You keep the guy's part for fourteen years, short change him on detents... and it's all *his* fault? And hey, what about all the things he's done for you? Right?
Bloody hell! I speed-read that (half-asleep, caffeine deprived) as 'Spring-loaded Dentists'. Now that's a video I'd want in my recommended list... or maybe not.

We use these in the orthopedic bracing industry. The ball is set using a hand punch called a corking tool. It is created very similar to the one you peened over except it is done with a punch. The surface has to be flat, so you would have to mill a flat first, drill a hole for the spring/ball diameter, then push the ball down with the punch. It is then struck sharply with a hammer to swage the rim in to hold the ball. It will look just like your ratchet detent when done. Here are a couple of pictures at the links. The hole for the punch is obviously a little smaller than the diameter of the ball so the ball can't come out. P.S. If you are creating an oiler type application, you would use a smaller through drill out the back side so the spring would be contained, but the oil could drip through.

my thoughts exactly.
This Old Tony well... Would be nice to see how that would turn out. Next video? Harold can wait.
Harold still has that other spring, he's trying to use it as a Slinky.
I'm glad I scrolled down to find this, because it's exactly what I was going to suggest: there's a spring missing.
No, no second spring or missing parts and yes, the spring is supposed to be in the front.

Same here!
So, was that content on the intent of detent?
If so, it was decent recent detent intent content.
Score yourself 5 bonus points. That was... intense.
Repent!
Repent the intent, the detent, or the content?

A good source for small spring is to watch tonys spring video and MAKE YOUR OWN SPRINGS!
Don't recommend, last time I made it, the US never got spring, winter lasted till summer
So that's why I didn't have to take off my snow tires until yesterday. You stay away from those damn spring making videos then.
Yep he can really SPRING into action. Lol
I laughed my ass off at that "one human hair" part.

Love your work so much man. Your sense of humor is great and I learn so many new things watching your videos
Love your videos! Your machining and mechanical skills are quite amazing.
Question: Can you use a Spring Detent in the Winter? Will it stay fresh that long?
I keep mine in the fridge, in a ziplock bag, with an apple slice. They seem to work well.
Of course you can. These things are called *spring* detents because they hold back spring. Studies have shown that they reach maximum efficacy if you deploy them a short while (two to three weeks) before spring would nominally begin. But be careful - spring detents cannot hold back spring forever.

I love machining! But I've found that watching anything on this channel is my type of entertainment. Good stuff!
Careful that oiler crack was super nerdy. :)
No wonder it broke if they didn't oil it!
This channel is gold. The dead pan in this one is strong.
I thought I was watching this video for kicks, but turns out I learned something. There you go again sneaking knowledge into these darn videos.
Random thing about detent springing up everywhere, I think some headphone jacks use them to retain the plug!
They often use a leaf spring of sorts.
Most use the leaf spring, as ddmeltzer8 mentiones, you can see it very easily if you google 'female guitar jack'
I would very much like to test the o-ring type!As the leaf spring can sometimes give off a small sqweak...
Springing up everywhere... I see what you did there
Sometimes when they wear out all you have to do for a bit extra use is to re-bend that spring leaf. Of course that work hardens it and eventually it'll break when you go to bend it again. But it's a quicker fix than replacing it.
Could it simply be missing another spring?
Personally I think so, yes.
Agreed hate that i always find someone who beat me to the punch...
Syrusoo It's usually called a general purpose stereo stealing tool, but yes, I too thought another spring would fix the detent. Beaten to the "punch"
yup missing
Even if I have no ability or need to know this information I absolutely love your videos. The editing is second for second the best around!
I LOVE your videos!!!! VERY creative and VERY FUNNY!!!
That is weird - just checking ... and there it was!!!

The only thing touching the groove is the plasma, so the tracking force should be near-zero.
It's clearly a 33 1/3 amp torch forced to work at 45 though.
The question I have is who's intro music is Tony playing. I know it sounds familiar from somebody's channel but I cant place it.
Maybe it broke because there is no radius at the apex of the shoulder.
