Several years ago I built a CNC machine. It's been having some flood coolant system issues so I decided to cut out the heart of the coolant system and build it stronger. In this video I show how I did that.
These videos usually take a ton of work and a lot of money in tools and materials. I've made a patreon if you're interested in supporting the creation of these projects: / stuffmadehere

Gotta love how he just glosses over the fact that he made his own CNC machine. It's no big deal....

"My initial reaction was to just move the plug to a non-GFCI outlet". A man of my own heart. Great stuff, looking forward to more!

"This video is getting a little long" - Don't you dare talk like that - make your videos as long as possible haha! They're intensely fascinating. Mind blowing.

I'd add another "loose" filter (with a handle or something) on top of the fixed one to get a majority of the chips out by just lifting the filter.

As a professional welder of 10 years specializing in sheet metal and TIG, I can honestly say this is acceptable work. You managed the heat well, added rod when and where you needed to, and you ended up with a professional looking product. Well done, and dont let hot rod showoffs with their ridiculous setups discourage you.

I know this guy is like in his 20’s, but i cant help thinking how he’s gonna be the BEST grandpa of all time. Just imagine all the cool shit he’s gonna make and do for his grandkids when they spend the weekend at his place.

As an engineer who specializes in press brakes, I find your pen plotter to be an interesting short cut.

I love how he approaches massive problems.

Why havent i found this channel earlier, can't wait to see more. +1 sub!

Coming in a little late but as a welder of 11 years just the fact you welded thin guage steel with tig without blowing holes everywhere shows you have great hand control. Don't be afraid to show your welds, you're doing great.

The "This Old Tony" tribute vibe was not lost.

This is a channel destined to be a great edition to AvE and this old Tony

You should do a basic "intro to machining" video just a little bit about how you got into it, how you make it work in an apartment with an estimated budget and some tips for viewers that want to start with this type of home projects. Love the vids!
