I never thought about using angle blocks. The first shop I worked for we laid out everything using trammels and figuring out the chord. I have an optical center punch that now collects dust in my tool box. It's been 13 yrs since I've had to use that formula and can still rattle it off. Very interesting video. I always enjoy them.

Remember guys, LED flashlights will not dim down to nothing like incandesant bulbs. When the battery voltage hits the low voltage threshold of the LEDs the output will quit, no dimness. Turning the light off then on will sometimes make the LEDs blink then they quit, this means the batteries need replaced or charged. It doesn't mean it's a bad switch.

Great Video. Now I do have the tools to lay out these bolt holes. I just recently got involved in drilling some holes and noticed that if you don't drill a pilot hole the result can be very bad. I had drilled with a bit of the size I wanted with no pilot hole and they all wandered, nothing was lined up. I had made my punch marks starting with a transfer punch through the pattern holes in one piece, supposedly so it would all line up just right. Unfortunately the bit wandered some and the holes did not line up right. I am sure my shop teacher told me that about 50 years ago but I was probably annoying another student or something instead of listening. Thanks for sharing.

Great Video. I enjoy all your teaching videos. Too bad schools, both high school and tecnical schools seem to have dropped machine shop courses these days. My favorite accessory for the drill press is momentary contact foot switch. It leaves both hands free to position the work and it allows you to move the work around under a drill bit that is not spinning. Once you have the work positioned stepping on the switch makes it easy to start the drilling operation without having to move your hands. As a safety feature if anything unexpected happens, drill grabbing the workpiece or something similar jumping back from the drill press will automatically turn it off.

I agree with Mike Horn that the divider method should be very accurate if done properly. Be sure that the dividers are still set to the radius of the circle you are laying the bolt pattern on. You are using the dividers to measure the bottom side of a triangle whose other 2 sides are the radii of the circle which meet in the center of that circle forming the apex of the triangle. Since all 3 sides are equal, this makes the triangle equilateral, so all the angles of the triangle are equal at 60 degrees. A full circle is 360 degrees divided by 60 degrees for each triangle makes 6 triangles total in a circle.

drawing a 6 whole pattern with the compass method as demonstrated at the beginning of the vid, this method isn't inaccurate at all. It's common practice since centuries and it's accuracy is proved mathematically. The reasons why the sixth and last "compass stroke" 6 doesn't match the starting point are either that the pencil insert needs to be sharpened or the compass itself is worn with some play or that the compass isn't operated accurate enough.

Based on it's principle this method for sure isn't the most accurate, however even with the compass you shall normally get a much closer result than what you present in the very beginning. If the deviation is really that big, then you have either a compass which isn't rigid enoug or you've done some operational mistakes.

I like Rayovac batteries, I think they're almost as good as Duracell but cost much less. I think mag-lite makes the best flashlight, you can get the 2D led for around $25, costs more than your Rayovac but excellent quality, and I think they're still made here in the USA. Great video as always!!
@obfuscated30905 жыл бұрын
Maglites were good 20 years ago because the competition hadn't caught up. They're junk by comparison today. Pelican make excellent lights using modern plastics (handy doing electrical work where a Maglite could short!). Streamlight make superb rechargeables if you have more money. I get better results for less money over time buying quality. For work lights it's hard to beat an LED headlamp because wasting a hand holding a flashlight is awkward on a good day. Any LED headlamp with rechargeable batteries and decent customer ratings will do. I wear them even in well lit rooms when doing precise work. About 20 bucks online from the usual sources.

That wasn't a centre punch you were using, it was a prick punch. That's correct practice of course, the less than 60 degree point of a prick punch being followed up with by the greater than 80 degree point of a centre punch. The aim in any case being to have a divot larger than the chisel length of the drill you're going to use.

why so much trouble to determine only 6 holes? If you determined your center hole, take a compass, make a quarter circle on the diameter, from that point you cross that quarter circle and you have a 60° angle, make another straight line through it, and then you can measure the distance with your compass from both diameters crossing the outline, and draw 6 equal length crosssections for all 6 holes. I would even do it on paper just a tiny bit smaller, glue it on, then make your center punch, and just draw, so you can make mistakes, but you'll always have the same center hole.

I grew up with very dim flashlights in Alaska. I got used to letting my eyes adjust to the dark. Now when you are mining and a grizzly smacks your tent the person next too you blinds you with the new super bright flashlight and you run out side and now the bear can see you and you can't see it so I still like dim light when fighting bears at night. And the bears don't stare at the bright lights ether like they do with old dim lights they learn to sneak around the light and make it much harder too know were they are and when you are in the woods at night with a pissed grizzly I rather see the eyes then hear blobbering growls of a devil tough talking beast. Last year I had a grizzly brake trees and talk toughs for 4+ hours and it sound like playing a record backwards and the growls make you feel real small when you see eyes 14feet in the air. ps I never saw the bear could have been Sasquatch hahah

I don't think he 'made a mess of it', he did not adjust for the error in the divider spread which for this 6 hole layout would be 1/6 of the error. Then run it again and you should be very close if not right on. Do it a third time if you are still off but remember only adjust by 1/N th the error where N equals the number of holes drilled.

This method clearly has to be very inaccurate. There is a better method using the math to set the dividers. If pi was 3, the mthod would be perfect, but it is as we all know pi= 3.1416 and that .1416 (rounded) is the error. Correction: Multiply the diameter of the first circle times pi and you'll end up with the circumference of that circle. Divide that by the number of holes you want (6 in this case) and you'll end up with an odd but very correct length. Set your dividers to that length and start at any point like shown in the video. Regards
@AKHyder017 жыл бұрын
Incorrect. This will give you the arc length. But dividers measure a straight line. You actually want to calculate the side length of the regular polygon circumscribed by the circle, which is given by 2 R sin(pi/n) (in radians).
@oldbloke1357 жыл бұрын
Rubbish. You are trying to mark the vertices of a regular hexagon. This is formed by six equilateral triangles, each of which has two sides that are obviously radii of the circle and whose third side lies on the circle. The third side should clearly also be the same length. The error is caused by leaning the pair of compasses over at different angles, drawing with different points on the pencil lead.
