For the first time ever, I've decided to do a video just on side projects. People seem to get a kick out of these and this lets me knock off some projects I may otherwise not get to. So it's a WIN-WIN! The projects all revolve loosely around 3 upgrades I've been itching to install on the mill, but as you will see, I get a little sidetracked.

Enjoy the Video!

PATREON - 3 Mill Upgrades (A Side Project Extravaganza) || INHERITANCE MACHINING

Welcome back to the machine shop! This video I’m installing 3 mill upgrades on my bridgeport style vertical milling machine. A pneumatic drawbar impact wrench for rapid changing of end mills and other tooling. A digital scale / micrometer with a digital readout on the mill’s quill for accurate depth tracking. And a powerfeed unit for the z axis to more quickly change the knee location without breaking a sweat. Along the way I get pulled into many other side projects including (but not limited to) machine leveling, lubrication system repairs, hose and cable management, and even some shop organization. #inheritancemachining #machineshop #hobbymachininst If you’d like to support the channel, or are looking for design drawings, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/inheritancemachining And a special thanks to my "Micrometer" level patrons!

A delightful watch as always. I have serious press envy.

Great content as always, but wait, did 🪵 actually make a cameo appearance ?!?

Thanks! For some reason I always consider the press an afterthought... until I actually need it and I'm reminded how useful it is!

Loved the video and the idea.. I wouldn't mind seeing a side project video every now and again... If nothing else, gives some good ideas
