AFAIK, you can periodically back the press a little bit for releasing the tension and preventing the broach from breaking in case something is not aligned good enough.

Just an FYI for future. You can 3D print the bushing for keyway cutting. I’ve done so in the past and never had an issue. Just make sure you leave a bit extra at the bottom to help support the cutter. Also 100 infill helps.

Silly suggestion: grind the broach even thinner, then shim it to the left/right and do two passes so that you can keep to the standard key stock.

For a crisp parting edge where the weld meets the unpainted base table surface, you could always tape right up close to the weld and then brush on some Vaseline right up to the horizontal edge before painting. Not sure I'm explaining that right but the paint wont adhere to the Vaseline and it can be quickly, and pretty accurately applied to the uneven area and cleaned off rather easily afterwards. I apologize, I'm shit at explaining things but I swear it works. An old industrial machine equipments painter showed me that trick in the late 90's and I'll never forget it.

At 15:20, you could hollow grind the sides of the broach maybe 0.001 to give some side relief to the cutting teeth while traveling through the guide bushing and the side of the keyway slot being made. Excellent video.

Would a ball end mill of a size to give a shallow "hollow ground" effect along the line of teeth do the trick. Fiddly to set the piece so the cutting line is correct (but doable with the holding vice). Then the side of the cutting edge gets relieved while the full width of the cutter is engaging the guide.

You should try some Heat Treatment Paint, I use it for heat treating knives and it works really well to stop scaling. Just don't make the same mistake that I made and others have made and only apply a single coat. Heat treatment paint is a paint and like any paint it requires several coats to get full coverage. I've found 3 coats is good anything over that is overkill and a waste. Great video as always! 👍👍

Clickspring shows you how to make a square broach which you can easily adapt to make yours that little bit better if you want to, I mean it seems to do it's job plenty well enough but it's there if you want. He also shows how to make loads of different tooling etc and his work is exceptional. He shows ways to get precision in cases, where getting even close is hard for most showing ways to set up your lathe etc to get the best out of it no matter what. I mean you seem to have managed anyway but honestly if you're not already watching Clickspring you really, really should as he takes what you can do in a small shop to the next level.

Nice job showing that a workable broach can be made in most of our home shops. Honing the broach teeth' gullets will reduce the friction of forcing the broch through metal. I found using a ceramic hone as the last step in sharpening high-speed steel lathe bits gave them a longer cutting life. I had to sharpen a profile bit every 6 hours the ceramic hone increased the tool life to 9 hours.
@ThatPNWGuy20249 ай бұрын

Nice work pal! 👍You didn't go over the math for the DOC per tooth etc. I make it about .005-.006 DOCPT and that gives ~ .080 Required shim thickness to step up. I think it will work a lot better if you grind the back clearance with your cup wheel to sharpen the teeth which are eroded from the heat treat. You might also consider alternating interrupted cut on each tooth. That give a place for the chips to collapse into.

You said the broach was about 30um undersize, but you didn't say if it cuts exactly at 4.7mm. If it cuts a little oversize, 3/16" is ~4.76mm, so you may be able to buy 3/16" key stock and not need to grind down 5mm key stock. Assuming 3/16" key stock is available to you, I don't know its availability outside the US.
