Square Holes - 5 Methods To Make Them in Metal

G'day everyone,

In this video I will be going through a few methods of creating square holes. I will be needing to machine a few of them in the future in order to repair my broken 4 jaw chuck, and after looking into some of the methods, I thought that it might be an interesting video topic.

In this video we will also be revisiting the old die filer that I used make last year. I will use it to file a hole square. I will also look at shaping a hole square and make a cutter from silver steel. I will also revisit the rotary broach tool I made earlier this year.
