Great video and it’s nice to see some more X7 content. I also just bought an MPS and should have it online soon.

Out of curiosity, with the vast number of people making knives in their garages, why would you choose to do something that has been done so much?

42yo machinist about to finally pull the trigger on getting a machine. I have some doubts about the tormach. Why get a Syil instead of another tormach? Would you consider them night and day?

I admire the dedication to this project, looking at the side: 260$ USD for a knife !!!

I'm very thankful that you take the time to make videos. One man shop with cnc machinery is hopefully the future of knife industry. Can't wait for folding knives, especially from you, because I love your designs.

hello i would like to know if at the moment of purchasing the cnc includes the tool holder or what is included in the purchase package, i hope you can help me.

Since the syil will pump out parts a bit faster you may want to look at palletizing your workflow. (After finishing the video I see that you have that handled already)

Wow you got up and running quick on the syil nice job! I was looking at the syil and minimill decided to go with the 1100mx. Couldn’t find enough info at the time last July when I ordered mine but it looks like a badass machine.

That machine is slow. It would drive me nuts. Try a Brother machine or a Fanuc Robo Drill or even a Haas DM. Speed is what you need. 🤣

try a Chiron... you could change the tool holder to a faster one, but to be honest- if you dont need it, why pay extra? For the price this machine outperforms most competition and as long as you dont mass produce (where this type of machine isnt even suitable) you can simply ignore these times in a small shop

How big of a shipping box did the machine come in ? Everything looks good by the way

It comes fully assembled so maybe 6" larger than the mill in every direction.

Excellent work! Don't forget to run the warm up program. Also you can make pallet systems yourself relatively easily. You use two over sized ball bearings in place of the locater pins and then you have stand offs periodically throughout the base, use a couple of latches to hold pallets down at the ball bearings. On the pallets you just face mill the bottom and machine a couple of spots for the ball bearing to mate up to. This method can economically allow you to turn your entire table into a palletized system. Allowing vastly longer run times, less tool changes, quicker parts loading, well you already know. The more parts you can cram in there the less overall time per part for run time.

Great idea. That would be fun to build. I have been running a warm up program for sure. About 10 minutes at 25% and 10 minutes at 50%.

@@tj.schwarz I wish I could claim that idea but it's something I've seen at an old job. Also once you really begin to cram a large number of parts in there it helps to have pairs of the same tools or simply buy roughing tools. This practice excludes drilling tools normally but on milling operations you use one tool as a rougher then do a tool change to the less abused tool that will do the last 1-2 passes. This way you can greatly extend the periods of replacing worn tools and just sling pallets without thinking for a long time.

The soft jaws are gripping a very coarse water jet edge finish so there is actually tons of grip.
