Machining a Brass Branding Iron on a Shapeoko
Рет қаралды 30,441
4 жыл бұрынBrass is near the upper bounds of what we would recommend be machined on the Shapeoko, as it's much tougher than aluminum. But with some careful consideration of speeds and feeds, it can be machined quite readily. Here's how I made a branding iron using Fusion 360 and my Shapeoko.
Brass alloy used: C360 (This alloy is easier to machine than most other alloys of brass.)
We went over this project in a longer, more in-depth form during a previous Carbide Office Hours episode here: • CAD and CAM for a Basi...

Nice video, I understood about 3 words of it but it was a good watch.

( 6:00 ) some NINJA moves here for a tabletop CNC works. Thank you for doing this. And I highly recommend everybody to watch the extended version

First 30 seconds.. I tried to blow on my screen to remove some of the chips off the brass 🙄

Great video Winston....there was no way you were going to machine a branding iron without making 2. 'W'

can you use that to make a counter weight for a trombone?

Curious, why do you climb cut instead of conventional in this material?

What lathe did you use?

Hi, how small and how fine of detailing do you think is possible with this method. Like you said the brand you produced was quite chunky.

With the tip of a vbit you can get quite a bit of detail in the part and the branding comes out clean. As Winston said the large issue is the lack of a perfect tip, so leave a little tock and you'll be good.

The touch probe is it giving you auto tool height? Is there a video explains how to achieve this?

What is an "inch". The entire world (excepting Liberia and the USA) uses metric. As your audience is international, maybe consider using imperial and metric. Nobody in the modern (metric) world knows what an inch is.

…the result of a revolution in 1776. It had to do with declared independence. No metric system for us.

Usually is not a problem for me to convert inches to mm into my mind for the most measures ( 1/8, 1/16, and so on). Things gets complicated with small amounts like 3 "thau" and so on... 😊
