I need your advice.
Ah that was the joke I was gonna do well I have some uhd-vice for your guys for how to
ADD things to your VISE... haaaaaaa...
So up until this point we had been dulling the sharpness of our vise by literally adding
popsicle sticks taped to the steel and one reason why you might want this, let's say
you're gripping a softer metal and you don't want these hardened steel grips biting into
it and ruining the finish - yeah - you want to have a more gentle touch.
So today we're gonna be adding a few different materials to here using magnets and 3D printing.
So we're gonna be using MatterHackers Pro PLA, the tough version, so that after we're
done printing it we can anneal it in our oven, make it really strong, extra strong , because
we don't wanna be building a vise, err, building accessories for a vise and when we go to use
it they crack so we'll see how they hold up at the end of this.
We're gonna bake it?
Yeah we're gonna bake it!
That was nice and easy, you might notice that we're in different clothes, yes it is tomorrow,
we got distracted, but moving on.
I wore the same clothes I didn't know that we were admitting that.
Haha!
I'm still in my same t-shirt.
It's- It's this- It's a... what if you have two of the same shirts?
Yeah.
So for those of you who weren't on our Twitch stream where we designed this, which is probably...
all of you - we have two different types.
This one right here, it's basically just a platform that has magnets on it that also
has screw holes.
This one is for the rigid materials like plastic or wood.
We're gonna attach materials here that will form the new vise surface.
And we'll have a few different materials for different applications - that we can swap
out - that we can swap out.
This guy is for the materials that aren't rigid like leather or really... thin... stuff.
Haha.
Foam, maybe?
Foam yeah, leather and foam, that we won't be able to screw through and we're just gonna
be gluing it to this face.
And it's basically the same approach we're just gonna have a magnet, we'll just pop these
on, and now they'll have leather or foam or whatever other materials we need.
So the first thing that we're gonna do, since we have the CNC out, we're gonna cut a few
different rigid materials out to the exact size that we want.
Why are we using a CNC?
Because it's easy and we're gonna be doing a lot of them and - and we might do some textures
for grippiness.
Yeah some textures grippiness.
Ahhh!
Ahhh!
So to attach it down this time we're gonna be using the blue tape technique where we
put blue tape down and then super glue and then we don't need tabs.
Oh yeah I remember now why I wanted to do it on the Carvey, I wanted to get those hole
positions perfect.
I love not having tabs!
Nice!
Yeah so now we have perfectly sized, perfectly placed little holes for our screws.
Ok so we are gonna have to do a chamfer so that the screw heads sit flush and we technically
could have done that on the CNC but it, it just seems easier to drill it out than change
bits or program the CAM, since this is kind of like a simple thing to do.
Phillips head??
What the heck.
Haha it's all we had!
Ok, I already know they're perfectly lined up.
Oooo put it on put it on.
Buh nah nah nah!
I didn't put it on straight.
*Zelda treasure chest noise* Nice!
Alright, proof of concept.
I mean - yeah, there's a few things like we might need slightly shorter screws - oopsy
- just 'cause we might poke ourselves.
But that's why we only printed one of each of these right now instead of doing all of
them.
Are these screws gonna damage something?
I was thinking that they'd be recessed and they are slightly - slightly recessed, but
maybe we recess them even more?
The hard thing is, see how they're already pushing out against the plastic here?
Because the edge is so thin I worry about pushing them even more, that's just gonna
make this edge really thin.
Let's make this a little taller - taller - yeah - so there's more space.
Plastic can deform yeah but wood will just like split.
And that's, that's no good.
But I think this one, my guess is we're not gonna have any changes so I'm down to just
try it.
It's pretty simple.
Yeah we're just gonna glue it on.
What do you think should we do wood, a wood face for here, or do you think we should do...
are you gonna finish that sentence or do you want me to say something?
Leather!
Haha!
Let's do leather.
Alright.
Go!
So again, we used a machine to cut inserts.
So precise, so precise, so precise!
Thank you robot army.
We've used - we've used ever type of robot we have pretty much.
So I think for this there's not much - oh my gosh hahaha that's a lot of Barge!
Oh it's going it's going oh my gosh!
Boogerth.
Haha, boogerth.
I almost think we could like - clamp something?
- no no like to to like make sure - oh to like smash it on?
Yeah.
Now that can dry nice and secure.
I mean this is like a mismatch of surfaces but already this is much more gentle than
if it was metal.
And there's still - there's still a lot of grip strength.
I almost crushed my finger *crashing noise* I saw it.
It was dramatic.
*Dramatic Chipmunk sound effect* Hahaha!
I just haha Dramatic Chipmunk - Hey!
Dramatic Chipmunk - Hey!
So I think this is the end of filming for tonight.
What we're gonna do now is we're gonna print one more of these with the lessons learned.
It's gonna be taller and then we are going to print one more of these because this - I
think it's good - this one's good.
Hi gang! ...no haha.
Hi friends, and welcome to Evan and Katelyn's kitchen.
On today's menu... 3D prints.
Make sure to place on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Preheat your oven to 210 degrees.
And then bake for 40 minutes.
Ok and while these bake Evan can tell you about our sponsor.
Today's sponsor are our friends over at MatterHackers and it's really cool because they are our
friends.
We've been in touch with them for about a year and half now ever since we were at 10k
subscribers.
When it comes to 3D printing there's a lot that most people don't know and don't need
to know and it's great to have them as a resource and that's why we feel really comfortable
recommending them, because they're not just a place where you buy stuff they are a company
that will engage and help with you and they're really involved in the community.
So we're gonna have links to all of the 3D printing supplies that we use in this video
along with all of our favorite 3D printers and recommendations for filament, especially
this filament that we're using right here.
So they're down there.
Thank you MatterHackers!
Well, they smell great.
Ok.
So I noticed last time there was a few imperfections at the corners some slight ridges, so I'm
just gonna sand that down real quick.
Alright so it may not look like much, but when you want something to be flat you want
it to be flat, and that's flat.
This, there's just that slight bump because I have it, I have it set to really high speed
so it just doesn't pause it ends up bumping a tiny bit at the corners, but one thing that's
really cool about the Tough PLA that I didn't really expect is it's a LOT easier to sand.
Regular PLA that hasn't been annealed like this, it just kind of melts when you try to
sand it, especially on a belt sander it just gums up and melts, but look at that.
So, neat bonus, I didn't really even expect that.
Moment of truth.
I mean, I feel like it's, it's gonna work, but still moment of truth.
Ah!
It is so satisfyingly perfect - precise and flush and on there.
Ok alright so we, we it like I think the design for the rigid materials is is good - I think
it's totally good now.
Alright let's test the leather.
Shooooop, shoooop, mmhmmhmm.
Perfect!
Yep.
What do you think?
Oh Supurrvisor approval.
Approval!
You like?
Ok.
So we wanna try a whole bunch of different materials aside from just the plastic and
leather but one thing that these can't do is they can't clasp round things or anything
vertical so next we are going to do a fully 3D printed attachment for those things.
Alrighty, and this is that irregular shape that we were talking about.
We went with V's and we can hold round stuff with it.
So I'm just gonna add the magnets real quick.
Ok.
Good job.
Alrighty let's see how this works.
There we go!
You can see the wood twist but it's gripping nicely.
Now let's try it like this.
Hahaha, I need to tighten that.
Row row row your vise.
It's a really NICE...
VISE...
Nice...
Vise...Oh wait, I have one more thing.
Oh a skinny?
This is a little bit too small for that last one but look at this, since you have modular
plates *gasp* what the what??? - you can just do half of the V and half flat and then - look
at that.
That's really good.
Haha I like how that's still just like...
So now that we have a proof of concept for all three types: rigid, soft, and irregular...
hahaha... um...
Now it's time to move onto different materials.
Montage mode!
Ooo it's like a wafer!
Brass next?
I mean these solid bricks of gold?
I love GOLD!
Like a little tip tap because the bit's so long.
Well I hope that this video gave you guys some ideas of different things you can add
to your vise.
Yeah you can put wafers on it.
You can put other materials.
Haha wafers! *chomp sound* It was fun to be able to combine 3D printing, CNC, it was also
cool because we got a lot of these ideas from you guys when we asked you on Instagram.
It was fun testing some of y'alls ideas that we hadn't thought of.
Yeah there's a lot of different ways to approach this.
If you're mainly woodworking, you can make this entire thing out of wood.
If you're mainly metal working, you can make the entire thing out of metal.
Or you can 3D print the whole thing.
Lots of combinations - go crazy...
See you next time, hahaha, bye!
Bye!
Cut this part out!
I thought that was pretty good.
We both went into it we were like, I'm gonna use the "advice" joke.
Hahaha!
I'm gonna use it, I'm gonna use it first!
I'm gonna use it first I was so, I was so ready I had my lines hahaha.
