Saw arbors Part 1 - Sägedorne Teil 1

It was an absolute pleasure watching your comprehensive films. I know understand why I have driven BMW and Audi for the last 20 years. German engineering - excellent.

Stefan,  Surely am looking forward to part 2.  Very nice work!  Thank you for sharing.

Perfect in every way. Just what I needed as I embark on making a slitting saw arbor for a 1/4” bore slitting saw. 👏👏👍😀 Andrew

excited to see the next part. thanks for going into so much detail with sizes and fits and clearances and finishes. i like the look of these!

Hi Stefan I just got lucky and my brother-in-law gave me a big box of inserts slitting saws Mill bits insert for boring bars a few nice carbide boring bars and a whole bunch of small carbide boring bars I mean a literally enough to last me my entire life. They are all brand new. He works in an aerospace company that if an engineer for some reason decides that it's not the right tool that has to leave the building it cannot be held so they throw them out or they let people take them home. Military contracts are funny that way they have a lot of regulations regarding what can even be around. I also got about 50 pieces of 304 stainless round stock about 4 ft each! my brother-in-law is an amazing person he's really been taking care of me LOL Anyway so I need to make some Arbor so I'm glad I found your video here. I've made them before but they're never exactly as nice as I would like them so I want to see what you do here and I'm about to watch it now. I had an idea however for a good video I don't know if you would like to do this type of thing but it would be interesting to me any way to learn about the different threads and clamping forces that are appropriate for different applications because I am always wondering what thread to use for a specific task. Anyway it's just an idea I would love to see you do it if you have the time or the desire Thank you very much Great video is always and now I will continue watching it

I like your chuck setting technique. Works well for chucks attached with bolts. That is how I initially set up my ER32 collet chuck on a 7" swing mini lathe devoted to collet work only.

Nice video, nice tools, and nice explanation of everything. Thank you for sharing this series with us. I think it is funny(odd) that in your videos, you explain the "why and how" of making tools, and of the tools you're using, better than many guys whose 1st language is English! That is just great, and makes me look forward to your videos allot. Danke sehr Stefan...Aloha, Chuck

Thanks, Stefan, for this video. I can imagine how much work video taking is!

Great video. That was very nice work and a very nice product. Slitting saws are very useful when used carefully. My first try with one I crashed it. The next time around I was more careful and things worked better. Thanks for the video.

Great! I made something similar but 3 mm shank and 8 mm total diameter to fit in the MF70. But I used a small hex screw for the bolt. Now you gave me the idea to make a shoulder bolt like yours.

Stefan, thanks for the video. I like the two pin bolt idea, much better than trying to broach your own Allen head. Craig

Very nice job on the arbors. I like the pin spanner for the end.

Stefan, really nice work on those arbors. Thanks for another informative video mate!

Great stuff. Have experienced the "Showcase Effect" many times. Never had a name for it. Thanks.

I enjoy all of your videos. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice work Stefan

Another great video, ready for part deuce . "Physics don't care about the price of a tool", Stefan Gotteswinter, Sep 27, 2015

That settles it. I shall celebrate Stefan on Arbor Day.

You have got me to thinking now - time to make some better arbors! Nice work as usual Stefan -- some useful ideas..

Stefan, love your precision made arbors. Thanks for your posts. Can you, please share your arbor drawings/sketchs?
