Ohhhh boy. A new panel! That’s a project!! Can’t wait to see it finished out! Have a wish list along those lines myself. Best.

What program is used in design?

I have never seen a more long winded method. Aim for 6 passes 1 for each face.

I saw that there are no exit holes, how does it inject without creating bubbles in the molded part?

Good to see you back. One of the things I like about your channel is its has all the bumps and twist of real life.

Glad you are back! What kind of media are you using in your tumbler?

Fusion now has Configurations, but Derive is still relevant. Configurations are best for 'variations' of a design (ie changes in properties, toggling 'childless' features, etc). It's not so great at toggling/switching chains of dependent features. By 'toggle', I mean 'Suppress' all but the active option. Derive is often the simplest option when a design requires selectable upstreamfeatures (eg different sketch profiles) which each have a chain of dependent features (eg. extrude(s), combine, chamfer, etc). AD discussed using Derive like a 'Configuration' here: ruclips.net/video/OpFSoPLSaag/видео.html&pp=ygUVRGVyaXZlLWluZyBGdXNpb24gMzYw Thanks for the vid btw 🙂

What sort of tumbler and media do you use to get that finish?

Happy to see you again! Another nicely done video, always enjoy your work.

Hi John, Great video with 4th axis you've got there. Every time I see your 4th I wanna buy one. One day... Cheers

Any idea why that small drill broke? Insufficient pecking?

John. You do what you find interesting as we will too. Long time no see but great video.

"I was too lazy to put a tap in the machine..." is the #1 reason threaded holes get buggered up in machine shops! I can't tell you how many parts I screwed up because I literally didn't want to go through the rigamarole of finding the tap, finding the right tap collet, finding a tool holder, etc. Good to see you back in action!

Wow, you work on top of this? I assumed (incorrectly obviously) that you were retired, or only working on this stuff full time!

So good to see a new video from you, I'm a big fan of your content. :)

Thanks for the video, fun little project

Good stuff!

Good to see a new video! I really appreciate your video style. Using coolant and not putting music over the machine working. Hearing the cut is an important part of knowing what a proper cut or tool path sounds like. 👍🏻 Thanks again

Heck, I usually end up making three of everything 😂. Looking forward to your instrument panel upgrade. I am mostly satisfied with version #7 of mine... longezproject.blogspot.com/2023/10/fuel-injection-conversion-part-7.html Ciao, Marco.

Great video thanks for posting. what was the total length of your stock and did you get much chatter? I have a piece of stock I need to machine on my 4th axis that is 3.75" in length with no tail stock so I am wondering if the stickout will cause me some problems. What material are you using in your tumbler?

I'd love to see more resin printed injection molding work, most of all. also interested in getting better at cnc-mill with freecad if possible, diy edm, diy cnc-lathe but definitely do whatever interests you!

thank for uploading ....great video .....i think this is easy part..you did waste so much material .... i can make 4 at a time in 2 setups in 3 axis ....no need 4 axis ...... but like if you have it then you should use it like this ....thank you

Great work, 4th axis makes these type of job so much easier! I need to figure out how to get one setup on my hobby machine now!

I bumped my tool steer with a cooling bucket and the tool setter loosened upside down. Do you have a setup to align it? It is loose and doesn`t tighten straight and flat.

Evening John I would like to learn cnc programming can you help me ❤

What mold release did he use and what do you recommend for mold release?

I hope you are doing well. We haven't seen any new post. I worry something has happened to you or family. Be well.

What an insightful journey from design to finished product! Your meticulous approach to injection molding really shines through in this video. It's fascinating to see the entire process unfold, from conceptualization to the practical application of the spoon. Your attention to detail and explanation of each step make it incredibly engaging and educational. Can't wait to see more projects like this!

nice

Thank you for a clear video.

High quality storyboarding, production, and post production work! I have so many questions! Missing parts for rookies include introducing us to the name of the design software you are using, telling us about what kind of file with extension name it produces, and then telling us the name of tool path software used to create the tool path from the design file and giving the exact name and model number of the milling machine that does 30k rpm. I would like to suggest a complete process video story board that instead of being focal to one product, focuses on exactly delineating the work flow chart up to and including quality control. This would include software packages, file extensions, milling equipment, and injection equipment along with some kind of explanation of how the plastic beads are melted, chambered, and injected. I am looking at a similar project for a much larger part in epdm and am keen to soak it all in.

The polishing shouldn't start until you've ground or filed off the tooling marks. You'd be better off starting with 40 or 60 grit sand paper and working up.

Realy helpful

❤very nice

Superb ❤

I am really impressed and your technology is really fruitful for my country Please send your contact number

Thanks

@John how accurate is the simulation? Did you have a chance to see if the sink marks, weld lines, warpage match on the actual molded part?

what printer equipment and resin are you using?

Thanks for posting this. I got this fault this morning and my heart sank as I need to get a job done urgently. Within an hour I was up and running thanks to your video. Top man.

I discovered an issue with the channel listing. Part 2 is missing. It has been like that for quite some time. :)

Hay John, amazing video A to Z, can you share the spoon 3D model

Thank you for the lessons!!

IF YOU DID ADD VENTS WHERE WOULD YOU HAVE PUT THEM?

Hi, thanks for the tip, does this work on a broken screw in a stainless steel watch case ?

Thanks so much for you video, i Want see the part 2 ... i have some question, firts im from mexico, second the Epoxy can be change for resin of 3D Print?, i can see you have a problem whit the plastic, maybe your problem is the time cold and no the presure, i tried make a simple inyection machine with 3D print (ENDER 3) and the problem was my Mold and no the press... and last question which one the same epoxy injection similar?

What epoxy did you use?

Check the runout on the spindle taper or a test bar, not a random tool you just chucked up.

John, thank you for posting this video. I have the same Maximat 7. Could you please share the height of the custom tool post that came with the lathe (from the machined bottom to the machined top)?

Do you have a license for your autodesk 360 and how much does it cost?
