Handscrew Mount As a Stand-Alone Project, the Swivel Vise from Woodsmith No Online Extra multi-function vise Handscrew Mount As a stand-alone project, the swivel vise from Woodsmith No. 219 is an incredibly useful shop accessory. But you can give the vise even more versatility by building a couple additional clamping fixtures. The first fixture (shown at right) is a mount for a standard 10" handscrew. QUICK CONSTRUCTION. Start by cutting the base and two brackets to size. To match the look of the vise, I chamfered the edges a. FRONT of these parts, as shown in the drawings at right. There VIEW are a couple of options when it comes to marking the Hand- !/2 45° holes in the base for the pipe flange. You can use the pipe screw 1 flange from the machinist’s vise mount and move it each Bracket time you switch between fixtures. Or, the option I chose was to purchase an extra flange and leave it attached to 1!/2 the base. This makes it easy to switch between clamping fixtures by unscrewing the flange from the hitch ball. 1 Base DRILL HOLES & ASSEMBLE. With the flange location marked, drill the holes in the base. You’ll then drill the counterbores for the T-nuts and tap them in place with a hammer. Next, I attached the b. brackets to the base with some screws and held one leg of the handscrew between the brackets 10" handscrew &/8 to mark and drill the through holes for T-nut the bolts (detail ‘a’).

B Online Extra Bar Clamp Mount Having built two mounts for my swivel vise (one for a machin- ist’s vise and one for a handscrew), I still felt the need to add one more fixture. That third fixture is the bar clamp mount you see at right. This mount holds two bar clamps in a couple of cradles and adds even more functionality to my swivel vise. FAMILIAR CONSTRUCTION. You’ll notice right away that the base for the bar clamp mount is very similar to the base for the hand- screw mount, just a little longer. This is a good place to start. Cut the base to size and chamfer the edges. You’ll also lay out the holes to mount the pipe flange as before. Now, drill these through holes and the counterbores for the T-nuts (detail ‘a’). b.

    SPLIT-TOP ROUBO BENCH PLANS Design, Construction Notes and Techniques Copyright Benchcrafted 2009-2014 · No unauthorized reproduction or distribution. You may print copies for your own personal use only. 1 Roubo’s German Cabinetmaker’s Bench from “L’Art Du Menuisier” ~ Design ~ The Benchcrafted Split-Top Roubo Bench is largely based on the workbenches documented by French author André Roubo in his 18th-century monumental work “L’Art Du Menuisier” (“The Art of the Joiner”). The Split-Top bench design primarily grew out of Roubo’s German cabinetmaker’s bench documented in volume three of Roubo’s series. Author and bench historian Christopher Schwarz, who has re-popularized several classic bench designs of late, and most notably the Roubo, was also an influence through his research and writings. We built a version of Roubo’s German bench and it served as a platform from which the Split-Top Roubo was conceived. We were attracted to the massive nature of Roubo’s German design and were interested to see how the sliding leg vise in particular functioned in day-to-day use. From the start we opted to do away with the traditional sliding-block tail vise, with its pen- chant for sagging and subsequent frustration. In the process of the bench’s development the Benchcrafted Tail Vise emerged and it has proven to be an excellent workholding solution, solving all of the problems of traditional tail vises without sacrificing much in terms of function, i.e., the ability to clamp between open-front jaws. For all the aggrava- 2 tion that the Benchcrafted Tail Vise eliminates, that feature isn’t missed all that much.

You may print copies for your own personal use only. 1 BENCHCRAFTED · SHAKER BENCH PLANS · INTRODUCTION & DESIGN · “Whatever perfections you may have, be assured people will find them out, but whether they do or not, nobody will take them on your word” Canterbury, New Hampshire, 1844 When I first laid eyes on the workbench at the Hancock Shaker Museum in Pittsfield, Massachusetts I had a pretty good idea of the configuration of my next workbench. I think it would be safe to say that I was inspired. However, designing a workbench that is inspired by a Shaker icon can be intimidating as well. I had to do justice to the original and keep in mind what might be considered acceptable. Luckily, most are aware that the Shakers were quite accepting of new technologies that could be practically applied, so this did allow a fair amount of leeway in regards to using more recent workholding devices on this bench. In the end, I did want the look to be very representative of the Shaker Ideal. “‘Tis a Gift to Be Simple” is an over used Shaker pronouncement, however I often think it’s meaning is misinterpreted. I believe it means having freedom from making things unnecessarily complicated.

  • CLASSIC WORKBENCH Design, Construction Notes & Techniques
    BENCHCRAFTED CLASSIC WORKBENCH Design, Construction Notes & Techniques Copyright, Benchcrafted December 2016 www.benchcrafted.com 1 DESIGN When we set out to design a new workbench for our customers, from the very beginning we decided it should, above all, be simple. Not only in function, but also to build. We make no bones about it, our vises are designed and made to work sweetly, but not to a price point. However, not everyone is ready for their ultimate Split Top Roubo bench build, either monetarily, or technically. For those looking to get their feet wet in traditional woodworking, using time-proven techniques and tools, this bench will provide all the workholding required to test the waters. For many, this will be all the bench you need, and for others it will be an excellent springboard to our Split Top Roubo, while keeping the Classic as a second bench. The Classic Workbench is based largely on the famous Plate 11 workbench from Roubo’s “The Art of the Joiner”. We’ve built dozens of these “Roubo” benches over the past decade, helped others build hundreds more and examined extant French benches from the period. We’ve haven’t changed our opinion on this fundamental design. The Classic is a simpler, easier to build version of Roubo’s Plate 11 bench that captures all the functionality of Roubo’s design. French technical schools of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were outfitted with benches just like this. Paring down the bench to its essentials, we’ve incorporated our Classic Leg Vise, Planing Stop and Holdfast as workholding devices.

  • Easydog Hole Kit Instructions Sheet Copy
    Time Warp Tool Works EasyDog Hole Kit Boring accurate holes without the aid of a drill press is a stressful task, especially when the material you are drilling is the workbench that you’ve put so much effort into getting to this stage. We have developed this set of tools, a jig you can make yourself, and this set of instructions to make it simple and stress-free. The EasyDog Hole Kit utilizes a 3/4” spiral router bit to bore straight, plumb holes in your bench top. Most plunge routers will allow you to bore to a depth of 2”. If your bench is thicker than 2”, we offer a version of the EasyDog Hole Kit which also includes an auger bit to bore an additional 4” (for a total depth of 6”). © Time Warp Tool Works 2014 Version 1.2 TimeWarpToolWorks.com Printed in Canada Note: these instructions are provided for guidance only. Your specific situation may require different techniques. If you have any questions, please contact us. What’s Required The only tools absolutely require to make use of this kit are a plunge router with a 1/2” collet, and a drill that will accept a 1/4” hex shank bit, if you will be using the auger bit included with the kit for benches over 2” thick. Suggested Tools To make the jig we recommend the following tools and materials: • one piece of suitably-sized (keep reading!)1/4”-thick MDF or equivalent; • transfer punches; • screwdriver that fits the machine screws on your plunge router’s baseplate; • twist and forstner drill bits for drilling clearance and counter bore holes for router base machine screws; • 3/4” forstner bit; • ~1-1/2” saw tooth bit (to make a clearance hole for the router bit); • drill press; • table saw; • wood glue and clamps; • square, rule and dividers.

Jana Pawła II 37, 31-864 Kraków, Poland; [email protected] (Ł.S.);´ [email protected] (W.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-12-374-32-45 Received: 6 May 2020; Accepted: 16 July 2020; Published: 18 July 2020 Abstract: This article presents an attempt to solve the problem of the formation of burrs and drilling caps in the process of drilling in difficult-to-cut materials, specifically in the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. In order to eliminate these phenomena, a chamfer of specific length and angle was made on FANAR drill’s margin. Taguchi and ANOVA methods were used to plan and analyze the experiment aimed at determining the optimal geometry of the modified drill. Chamfer with a length of 2 mm and an angle of 10◦ was selected. In the next stage of research, the values of cutting forces and burr heights obtained during drilling with the original and modified drill were compared for three different feed rate values. It turned out that the introduced changes significantly reduced both the axial cutting force (22–23%) and the height of burrs (10–22%) and caused the complete elimination of the presence of drilling caps. Additionally, a positive correlation between the cutting force and the burr size was found. Keywords: burrs; deburring; titanium alloy; drilling; cutting forces 1. Introduction Rapid development of industry entails the need to use new types of materials and to improve the methods of their processing.
