Triple"B"S Knife Lock Build Series - Part 1 - Knife Making With Fusion 360 and Tormach 1100MX Media
Published: 3 years ago
Triple"B"S Knife Lock Patent No. US 10,981,283. Complete 3D Animation Video of how it operates, and Part 1 of the complete series to build this folding knife.
Tormach 1100MX Knife Making Series
If you are looking for something different than the standard Frame Lock or Liner Lock folding knife designs, check out this new Triple"B"S knife lock to add variety to the folding knife locking mechanisms available today. I am taking this design from prototype to production with my new Tormach 1100MX CNC Mill. This video walks through taking my prototype knife and digitizing it into Fusion 360. Cleaning up the design and getting it ready to CAM and manufacture then machining the mechanical elements of the blade and the complete right handle slab. The blade is CPM154 Stainless and the Handle Slabs are 6AL4V Grade 5 Titanium.
The Triple"B"S Lock Mechanism - short for Bud Beets Ball Slide - is my own design and is available for lease or other licensing agreement.
Thanks to the Titans of CNC FaceBook group for helping me clean up my tool paths. Also thank you to NYCNC for all of your great Fusion 360 videos that have helped me get this far.
Work holding with Glacern Machine Tools 4" CNC vise. GARR End Mills used in this video. CPM154 Blade Steel purchased from Tru-Grit.
Thank you for watching!
