Next project could be a threaded insert station. I built one from the hardware of an old 3d printer, a piece of wood and some 3d printed part to connect everything. Comes in very handy

Amazing job!!

Aww it looks so cute :) I would add counterweight for the table to make the operation more gentle. Other than that nice job for the cost

Nice job mate.

If you paint the 3d printed parts with resin you return the colour + add a hard outer coating that adds strength, uv resistance and scratch resistance.

Amazing video chris! but a bit of color correction would make it even better.

Why didn't you talk about the type of cement you used and the process of making the concrete?

Watching this makes me want pizza..... why have you done this?

Going to hex from Philips could change your life.

next time you should use a heat gun to bring back the color to the sanded print...and i hope that one day you would builf a 3D printer with your idea of making strong 3D printed parts win concreat! keep doing great videos :)

love your videos man

The Minecraft music I cant😢

Where do I get the files?

So where can I download the print?

Dude, what the actual fuck, this is absolutely amazing. Such an incredible idea filling it with concrete and using threaded rods and spacers as the bolts and nuts. And the final design is so smooth and beautiuful. I was thinking about the price and when you showed the bill of materials my jaw dropped, you read my mind. This is insanely cool and it's an instant subscribe. Thanks for uploading

Chris did you ever upload the remix to the pcb holder by squinn?

After watching you install those heat-set threaded inserts, I'm thinking you should make a modified version of this that also holds a soldering iron too :)

I prefer boiled linseed oil for restoring the plastic after sanding

Is there any way to use some reduction system to make the vertical table movement more precise? As in, a larger movement of the handle is translated to half of the movement, etc.

Now that your filling all your 3D prints with concrete, maybe it's time to 3D print (and concrete fill) a cement mixer :)

I love the minecrsft music on background

you should consider dental stone instead of cement, it's a lot easier to work with

all the apple slander is so beautiful

for vibrating, you can buy a "massage wand" or a fascia massage gun depending on the strength you need. (both around 25-30 bucks.) (also you can use the massage gun without a head for more gentle vibration.)

Nice and compact.

I build myself one of these a while back using aluminium extrusions, a left over switchable magnetic indicator foot, a rod and an old chuck. The benefit is that I can use it easily in the middle of larger sheet goods, or take it where I need to use it with ease, and of course since it's magnetic it can either be put on a big piece of steel for support, or just attached to the object I'm tapping if it is already ferromagnetic.

Love the Video ! Learned some nice stuff like using a sander for Vibration or that concrete and 3d prints can be combined well

Next version motor driven.. 🤔

It's strange that you don't use high-strength concrete.

awesome videos, just came from the drill press video and started looking thru your videos and I'm hooked

man its not just your machines that are amazing, its the way you show your design process and justify your decisions. awesome!

this is slick

A cake decorating squeeze bag would work for applying cement paste. That way you won't be dependent upon gravity. Use a vibrating device and a coat hanger wire to fill in voids. Abrading the surface of concrete is only as difficult as the hardest mineral clast used in the suspension.

Is there a specific formula you used for the concrete? Do you know if there is any particular blend/mixture that you would recommend?

lol I been using taps and dies for around 35 years and never needed a whole other machine for merely holding the tap to secure inline with the hole to be tapped. I mean, good grief, use your hands to apply the proper pressure and a simple carpenter's square to keep the tap perpendicular to the surface being tapped

It thocks :p

A slightly more expensive option for the counterweight is coins

No, you don't find that kind of thing AT walmart. Walmart has recently been attempting to encroach on Amazon's / eBays' business. Such items are almost certainly sold through 3rd parties, and are of dubious quality, if I'm being generous. Also rife with outright scams.

"No Sir, you just need an excuse to build one yourself"

Love the video… but…. Is that Minecraft music in the background? 🤔😂

What about a crank on the top for V3 ?

Can we get wider views from different angles with the hand rest, because I honestly can't see in the video how it attaches or is oriented. There's no real visual perspective info from the shiny cylinder.

Just use a drillpress

Very nice of you to share the files of your hard work. Kudos

Wow, looks cool. I would love to try something like this myself, but have always worried how to make it all square and true. How perpendicular is the drill axis to the platen, how parallel is the platen surface motion to the drill axis? Must be fairly good for the small drills to work.

Damn, you are crazy productive!

Secret outro!

Have you considered filling your prints with fine sand and printing a snap cover for the holes? That would be far less messy :)

Do you have the specs abd configs of your printer and slicer somewhere?
