Folding Heat Shield to Cool My Workshop...Using Science! Wesley Treat 2022-09-01 | The roll-up door in my workshop is a huge problem in battling the summer heat, so I built a set of panels to act as a radiant barrier, which I can fold out of the way when I need to use the door.Please see the pinned comment for a little more explanation about the science.GET YOUR VERY OWN X-CARVE OR X-CARVE PRO!Use the link inventables.com/?ref=wtreat for your purchase and help me to keep making videos!PATREON EXCLUSIVESIf you'd like to help support my channel and get access to exclusive content, visit patreon.com/wesleytreat.OFFICIAL WEBSITE ▶ wesleytreat.comSHOW YOUR SUPPORT ▶ Merch: wesleytreat.com/shop ▶ Photography: satelluxestudio.etsy.com ▶ Favorite Tools: amazon.com/shop/wesleytreatFOLLOW ME ▶ Instagram: instagram.com/wesley_treat ▶ Twitter: twitter.com/wesleytreatTOOLS & MATERIALS FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO▶ TotalBoat Halcyon Clear Gloss Marine Varnish: amzn.to/3AyQlrl▶ TotalBoat Halcyon Satin (As a Final Topcoat): amzn.to/3b7Zhvg▶ Highly Reflective Mylar Film Roll: amzn.to/3wzFWKP▶ Kizen LaserPro LP300 Thermometer Gun: amzn.to/3cvZqJG▶ Rockler 3-Piece Silicone Glue Application Kit: amzn.to/3hh6iaN▶ Rockler Spring-Loaded One-Handed Bar Clamp: tinyurl.com/2wrksu7a▶ 3M Half Facepiece Silicone Respirator: http://amzn.to/2jcqkZk ▶ 3M 6001 Organic Vapor Cartridge: amzn.to/3bk8mi2 ▶ 3M P95 Pre-filters for 6000 Series Cartridge: amzn.to/3c2jG19▶ Fletcher FrameMaster Point Driver: amzn.to/3QZOjaWSEE ALSO▶ Fitting an Entire Loft Staircase in a Tight Space: youtu.be/taDr8zy7yd4RADIANT BARRIERS AND AIR GAPSThe method I referenced, in which the radiant barrier is applied directly to the door, does have an effect, as the foil has a low emissivity. In other words, when the foil is in contact with the door, the foil itself heats up through conductivity, but it doesn't emit as much of that heat as the door alone would. However, the effect is significantly lower than that of the foil's reflective property. A gap between the door and the radiant barrier allows the foil to reflect most of that heat back, without itself heating up.If you live in a cold climate, and you're trying to keep heat in, however, the method above works as intended. The air gap is on the inner side, reflecting heat back into the building.Follow the links below for further explanation.▶ Radiant Barriers - Must Have an Air Space: youtu.be/aU4q6RKaOQQ▶ Radiant Barrier - Why Is Air Gap or Space Required?: youtu.be/E1IwS0_lpBc▶ Understanding Reflectivity vs Emissivity: youtu.be/uGP5KobU6R4CHAPTERS00:00 - Making the Test Beds01:00 - The Problem02:22 - Testing Solutions06:47 - Building the Panels15:41 - Reviewing the Data18:48 - Completing the Panels24:08 - The Panels in ActionNote: I may earn a commission from certain product links.

Note: Your results may vary. If you have questions, please leave them in the comments. However, please understand I can't provide a lot of troubleshooting or technical support.I'm carving 5052 aluminum in this video. I've also tried 6061, which tends to carve a little better, but I have yet to eliminate all the burring.1. Engrave the lettering. I occasionally try a new bit, and the one I currently recommend is listed below. ▶ Triangular 60-degree V-bit: amzn.to/3iJK6J5 ▶ Total Carve Depth: .003" ▶ Depth per Pass: .005" (This is the max. DPP I recommend for this bit, whatever the job.) ▶ Feed Rate: 45 ipm ▶ Plunge Rate: 30 ipm2. Finish the surface with a light pass of the medium grade flap wheel, then a pass with the very fine grade. Don't press down, but let the wheels do the work. Working it too much can make the engraving too shallow. The following are a little pricey, but have lasted me a very long time. ▶ Abrasive Nylon Flap Wheel, Medium Grade: mcmaster.com/46735A44 ▶ Abrasive Nylon Flap Wheel, Very Fine Grade: mcmaster.com/46735a433. Apply the lacquer stick. Note: Although I didn't show it in the video, I also follow it up with a light coat of Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Satin Clear Enamel to protect the lacquer fill. ▶ Lacquer-Stik Black Fill-In Paint Marker: amzn.to/2IHjZCn4. Carve the holes using the helical end mill listed below. ▶ Kodiak Solid Carbide Helical End Mill for Aluminum: amzn.to/2vZo1xL ▶ Hole Diameter: .145" (for 1/8" rivets) ▶ Total Carve Depth: .045" (on .040" aluminum to ensure cutting through) ▶ Depth per Pass: .01" ▶ Feed Rate: 15 ipm ▶ Plunge Rate: 15 ipm ▶ Add ramp to toolpath: Spiral (Vectric VCarve setting)5. Cut the nameplate profiles using the same end mill as in step 3. ▶ Total Carve Depth: .045" (on .040" aluminum to ensure cutting through) ▶ Depth per Pass: .01" ▶ Feed Rate: 30 ipm ▶ Plunge Rate: 30 ipm ▶ Add ramp to toolpath: Smooth, Distance .5" (Vectric VCarve setting)6.

A Better, Stronger X-Carve, With an Aluminum Bed & More Upgrades Wesley Treat 2019-04-26 | I've replaced my X-Carve's MDF waste board with a more rigid aluminum bed, featuring metal T-track and easily replaced spoil boards. I've also added a few new upgrades from TBD CNC.The new aluminum platform not only adds significant rigidity to the robot's frame, but also allows for hassle-free replacement of the sacrificial surface without removing the whole bed.EXTENDED VERSIONFor an extended version of this video, as well as other bonus content, visit patreon.com/wesleytreat.GET YOUR VERY OWN X-CARVE!Use the link inventables.com/?ref=wtreat for your purchase and help me to keep making videos!FOLLOW ME▶ Instagram: instagram.com/wesley_treat▶ Facebook: facebook.com/satelluxe▶ Twitter: twitter.com/wesleytreat▶ Amazon: amazon.com/shop/wesleytreat▶ Etsy: satelluxe.etsy.com & satelluxestudio.etsy.comTOOLS & MATERIALS FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO▶ X-Carve: inventables.com▶ Suckit Dust Boot: suckitdustboot.com▶ DeWalt 20V Max Drill & Driver Kit: http://amzn.to/2hLB64q▶ 3M Virtua CCS Protective Eyewear: http://amzn.to/2l5EITE▶ Tap Magic ProTap: amzn.to/2Vur3bv▶ 1/4"-20 Spiral-Point Machine Tap: mcmaster.com/2687a48▶ #6-32 Spiral-Point Machine Tap: mcmaster.com/2687a44▶ Rockler Universal T-track: rockler.com/universal-t-track-universal-t-track▶ Bosch Clic-Change Self-Centering Drill Bits: amzn.to/2VvGyjm▶ Lacquer-Stik Black Fill-In Paint Crayon: amzn.to/2IHjZCn▶ Irwin Metal Countersink Drill Bit Set: amzn.to/2VyfOz2▶ Mini Ratcheting Offset Screwdriver: amzn.to/2SjgxClOTHER NOTES▶ Why didn't I just have OSH Cut create the holes to the diameter necessary for tapping? With material as thick as 1/4", as the laser burns through, the bottom of the hole ends up a tiny bit larger than the top of the hole. Now, if I didn't need to tap it, it wouldn't really matter. But, with a tapped hole, you need a precise and consistent diameter. So, I had them cut the holes slightly undersized, then I drilled them out as needed. All this I learned from OSH Cut, who helped me determine the best way to get the results I needed.▶ If you're planning to use the TBD stiffeners with Phil's design (linked below), you'll need to subtract 1/4" from both the left and right sides of the aluminum bed. But, you'll need to double check everything yourself to make sure the design works for you. I make no guarantees for my or Phil's measurements.)THANKS TO▶ TBD CNC: tbdcnc.com▶ OSH Cut: oshcut.com▶ Designs by Phil (see note below): http://www.designsbyphil.com/dbp-x-carve-waste-board.htmlSEE ALSO▶ My aluminum plate being laser cut (pew pew!): youtu.be/fAhS6qE8zHc▶ Cheap & Easy T-Slot Waste Board for the X-Carve CNC Router: youtu.be/pPOtXLCGQUo
Illuminated Glass Sign (Without Glass) Wesley Treat 2019-03-29 | Two years ago, I built this commission based on an early-20th-century, illuminated, painted-glass sign from an old hotel. And I was attacked by a hummingbird in the process.PATREON EXCLUSIVESIf you'd like to help support my channel and get access to exclusive content, visit patreon.com/wesleytreat.FOLLOW ME▶ Instagram: instagram.com/wesley_treat▶ Facebook: facebook.com/satelluxe▶ Twitter: twitter.com/wesleytreat▶ Amazon: amazon.com/shop/wesleytreat▶ Etsy: satelluxe.etsy.com & satelluxestudio.etsy.comNOTES▶ I also used a "frosted glass" spray, which didn't appear in the video, on both the red and yellow portions of the sign.▶ I cut the paint masks on a consumer-grade vinyl cutter called a Craftwell eCraft. I don't recommend it only because they haven't updated the software in forever.▶ It wasn't covered in the video, but I had to score along the edges of the paint mask before peeling it up to prevent pulling up the paint, since there wasn't much grip between the paint and the acrylic.▶ The tool I used to fasten the acrylic face in the cabinet is a framer's point gun.
