Machines run smoother with this drive belt trick
Просмотров 3,9 тыс.21 час назад
Lathes, Milling Machines, Woodworking Machines and other belt driven machinery will run smoother on start-up if the belts are rotated if the machine has set unused for any length of time. Moving the belts off where they have received a "set" from the last use. It is beneficial for Reeves drives to park the machine with the pulleys set at the machines middle speed, this keeps the belt from pinch...

That rifle case is a work of art!
Can you do a shop tour?
Good to see you. I like the woodworking segment.
Hi, thanks
I had no idea that DeWalt made carbide edged blades. That’s annoying because as soon as the video is over, you know I’m going to have to buy that package! The wood isn’t toxic. It’s why I love cocobolo, but dislike working with it. A lot of guys put woodworking down compared to machine work. People seem to think of woodworking as carpentry. But having done both for a very long time, I think I can say that while metal work, particularly machining, requires knowledge and care, high quality woodworking requires more actual skill.
My start in woodworking was making shipping crates for rebuilt items, this woodworking machinery and antique tools I picked up locally in around 2012, when the schools in the region suddenly stopped the shop programs, corporate purchases of family farms put all types of woodworking tools and machines on the market and really drove the prices down, especially 3 phase machines. I only had basic school shop experience but picked up the basic equipment that needed to break down slabs from the area mills. Those carbide utility blades are really good.
@ you were really lucky with the equipment. That’s quality most people never see, much less are able to obtain. Yeah, I bought a 50 pack of the blades last nite. It’s surprising how little they cost.
So glad you’re back Don. As a young guy (35) i love hearing your seasoned point of view.
Hi, thanks for that
Cracks me up. Dude! Your shop looks like mine.
I make a mess! Thanks.
Wonderful antique! I have one too.
The wood and forged steel is more attractive than aluminum and plastic, I think.
Love this tip!
Glad it was helpful!
More videos on Monarch 10ee operation please! You know your stuff!
Thanks, I will do that, not many express interest in the machine.
I’ve been watching your videos religiously. I’m from WA but live in VA now, I wish I could have swung by your shop and seen these beauties in action. I bought a 10ee recently but have buyer’s remorse. I shouldn’t have bought it without knowing what a good running one looks and operates like. I see yours and mine just seems too far gone to me.
You make some good points that are very handy to know. I'm rebuilding a three belt 12 inch bench grinder, I'll apply this thinking when commissioning. Thanks for sharing. Regards Alan here in NZ
Thanks, It helps on the high speed machines
Sir, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’m looking at the exact same morspeed drill, trying to fix the elevator function.
Hi, I have the electrical to do next, keep me posted on your progress, thanks!
Perhaps many have not run across this, but when bias ply tires were the only thing out there, a condition that showed up especially in cold weather that when you jumped in your car and started driving down the road that there was a bumping or flat spot ride that occurred for a short period of time until the rubber was ‘exercised’ enough to smooth out the short term memory of the tire material from flat to round. I am not promoting radial V belts, but to say that Don is re-educating those out there to the why’s and where-for’s of machine operations. Same thing as letting your machine tool (or car) warm up to circulate lubricants before operations begin. Just things you learn as you go along!
I have that old table saw running so good, I dropped everything and made a screen door for my house!
So why does rotating the blade out of the "bump" in the belt before starting it cause the belt to straighten out faster? Just because the high torque at starting isn't applied to the belt in the same position? Maybe with the bump in the middle, the starting torque actually helps pull the bump out? That's the only explanation I can think of, but I'm not too convinced that's what's actually going on
Most people will never even try this, and that is a fact. Thanks for tuning in.
Thanks for adding this detail. You mentioned this but I didn't understand
Give it a try, thanks
Olá amigo Don é fantástico ver suas máquinas,sempre muito bem cuidads da gosto de ver e trabalhar com elas!!! Abraço e boa sorte sempre!!!
Hi, thanks.
Good morning Don….have a great week….paulie
hi, looking good so far
Good tip on belts. It’s good to see you again.
Hey, thanks!
Thanks for that, definitely massive rain here on the west side of the mtns.
Still clear here, sometimes this area avoids the worst.
Yes, that’s one of the most annoying things about belts. But the Reeves Drive in my lathe does allow it to run much quieter, even with the two speed transmission. Having that gearing buried inside the bottom of the lathe rather right on top majestic a difference. Unfortunately, my mill uses two belts with three pullers, so it’s difficult to get them aligned. But it’s mostly a problem with the one from the motor, which has a small diameter pulley at the top of the four different diameter stack.
The Pope Spindle Company had employees hand rotate spindles in stock once daily and recommended owners do that to installed spindles so the preloaded bearings do not brinell into the races "form dents" by working through the lubrication film from vibrations from other machines in the shop. The variable speed Reeves drive in the Moore was made by the same company that made the drive for the Rivett 1020, the belts are no longer available and have a different edge angle and width than what is available now. The cost of the belts was extreme 30 years ago, they are still good, I think it was good advice from Moore. Since, I rotate my machine spindles when not in use.
@ honestly, I’ve thought about doing it, but never did. Your video has gotten me thinking about it now though.
Thats really interesting. I'll have to check that out on my Clausing Lathe. I finally officially finished it today.
I keep saying that about my old Axelson but I find another thing to do. I think you will find that helpful on the Clausing variable speed, the drives just smooth out faster keeping them at mid speed when done using and rotate off the belt set before starting.
Great tip Don!
Hi, thanks!
Great to see you back!
I got locked out, but found another way in, thanks
Yep, thanks for the tip yep and after the first year there's no tax on that. Hi, this is Frank down at fleco Technology it's late Sunday afternoon. I think I'll get on the lathe and see if I can turn some parts out
Hi Frank!
Thanks for the tip never knew this 1^ You have a nice day tooOOOOOOOO! :0
Thanks! You too!

I better keep a reserve or two,
Good morning Don...glad to see you back on track..Paul ❤
Me too!
Glad your back...
Thanks, I have the technical problem pretty much fixed
Glad to see you back , started to worry about ya, nice hair cut
All good, thanks!
Being roller bearing big ends do those require more frequent changes than bushings? I think I remember hearing that early bugatti's had roller bearing cranks that required 5k inspections/ repalcements?
All frictionless bearings have a stated life with a given speed and load. In theory, bushings can have an infinite life, if treated properly. But realistically, ball and roller bearings can last the life of the machine if the design was proper and they are also treated properly.
The roller bearings work well as long as the crank and or the engine cases or block does not distort under load, keep in mind that old Harleys are only around 50hp using that 5 piece crank shaft. The newest models, the shafts and the flywheels are one piece using a straight crank pin with a very heavy press fit instead of nuts, stronger engine cases handling over 100hp factory stock. The roller bearing design requires a closed end rod meaning multicylinder crankshafts would have to be built up and for the period of old race cars likely held together with nuts for the removable crank pins. There is a lot that can go wrong and the shafts and crank pins of the period were carburized mild steels or case hardened. Any pinching of the bearings causes the case hardening to flake off the crank pins or other shafts resulting in what was known as "mystery bearing failure" or chewed up mess. Todays through hardening alloy steels makes roller bearing rods more reliable, more to come on that subject, thanks!
Nice to see you back keep the videos coming
I will work on that, thanks
Welcome back!
Thanks for watching!
