Добавлен 24 ноя 2011
I enjoy hobby engineering and steam model making, for my machining I use a Myford Super 7 Lathe - a warco mini Chinese lathe and a Chester hobby mill. I am based in Norfolk, England. My workshop is half of a single car garage. My lathe projects are usually made as I require them for my hobby.

it looks good, i can tell you in the video, the lathe is flexing down so something is still kinda loose or jsut a little more tweaking
@@mike9500 it’s because it’s wasn’t fixed down, just sitting on the bench 👍
I can see you have no idea what you are doing.
Very nice lathe. Nice video. Great work
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir Thank you 👍
Isn't that 10 microns difference..?
@@grahamshedd9225 yes your right 👍
There is something very satisfying about stripping down, cleaning and reassembling a simple machine and putting it back to use 👍 especially when it is small enough not to put your back out 😁
@@Paul-FrancisB I know what you mean 👍
The lathe looks really nice, almost like new. It’s amazing how accurate these mini lathes can be. My one is quite old and has seen a lot of work, but more than capable of still working to 1/1000. There’s a lot of little mods you can do Mark, to make them even better as well. I’m sure you’ll have a lot of fun with it. Hope the move goes well. Cheers Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop Thanks Nobby, enjoy the show this weekend 👍
Nice. Better than new.
@@Rustinox Thank You, I just need to find a project to do on it 😂
Hi. She is working good it is time for A update time to fit a power feed from Brian w.germany
@@brianclark2370 not yet 😂
Yet again most enjoyable and educational and a job well done and a great help for me as I'm just in the process of making a fixture plate for my milling machine to help me with clock repairs, thanks. Jim from Australia.
@@jimnicholson4509 your welcome, Jim from Australia 👍
Very very good video and informative many thanks, now I'm going to watch the second one.
@@jimnicholson4509 your welcome 👍
Absolutely brilliant video…well done…one question and one idea… Question…How is the tool holder held into the body?….you just pushed it in and turned to the desired angle…what stops it from turning? Idea…The cutting is adjusted by using an Allen key to turn the graduated screw….I think a knurled thumb screw on the end would make adjustment easier Many thanks…
@@johnhall8455 the tool holder is held in by grub screws in the slide. Thumb screw is an idea, I just followed the plans 👍
Nope. Got error 02. Used a 110 volt to 12 volt dc power supply. Dropped 9.7 to 14.9. Still code 02
Splendid work on the crank shaft Mark. Came out really well. Can’t be many parts left to make now. Cheers Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop in real time it’s finished, I was hoping to go to the model show next week but I am moving house at the weekend, I missed it last year because I had covid 🤦♂️ but hopefully I can soon start setting up my workshop. ATB Mark
You certainly made that look easy. nice job
@@paulrayner4514 Thank You
Very well done!!
@@tonyc.4528 Thank you
Beautiful, you kept it as simple as possible and it looks like a million!
@@howder1951 Thank You
Perfect fit on every part. Exellent result.
@@Rustinox Thank you 👍
Very nice work sir. I have a v10 kit myself and want to work up to it. I don’t feel ready for it yet. You are doing a great job
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir I look forward to your v10 getting underway 👍
i don't think a 550watt is tat big either. my current oem setup is a 800w and i want to install an 1100 watt to upgrade it, or even go 2hp AC.
@@mike9500 I think I have only ever made one thing on it, the problem with having 2 lathes of similar abilities is, you only ever use one 😂😂
I was there
@@TDS_Nzi 👍
Hi Mark. Hopefully that motor will work out OK. I wondered if Warco keeps spare motors in stock. I guess they would be expensive though. Hope the move is going OK. Take care. Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop yes, I am very busy at the moment with the move, can’t wait to get my workshop up and running, early November hopefully ATB Mark
You made that motor change look easy. Nice video.
@@GlennNowOnRUclips 👍😂
I’m surprised that you didn’t go with one of those sewing machine servo conversion kits. I used a kit to upgrade my lathe motor to 750w 1hp and I have plenty speed and plenty torque. The servo is half the size of the 500w motor and fits perfectly.
@@taranson3057 I wasn’t aware of them, I will look into it. Thank you
Only 700 RPM? That seems very low for this little machine. To make small pieces in soft material, you will need much more.
@@Rustinox I have been thinking about it and I am going to change the gearing. But it will have to wait until I regain my interest in it 😂😂
A good motor makes such a difference. I saw on my lathe a big difference. Nice work
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir thank you
nice work
That is quality work sir. Very nice
Enjoyed watching the setups. Thanks
@@jirvin4505 your welcome
That was a tricky little part Mark. Thanks for sharing. It’s given me some ideas for the kit I’m building. Cheers Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop Your welcome Nobby 👍👍
Hi Nice work like the way you set that up till next video from Brian w.germany
Thanks Brian 👍
Nice machining work. We shared this video on our homemade tool forum last week 😎
@@homemadetools thank you
Really nice, I will have to put it on my to do list.
@@paulrayner4514 If it’s like my to do list it expands more than it contracts 😂
@@EnglishHobbyMachinist Yes. The Mrs doesn't help either 🙄
Wow. Great work. It’s tiny.
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir thank you
I hope you’re doing well! I have a couple of ideas for an auto disengaging lead screw nut that I’d like to share with you. Segmented Nut Design: This would involve the nut being split into 2 or 4 pieces, held together by a spring. When the screw hits a stop, a spreader cone would disengage the nut. Cone-Shaped Ramp Nut: In this idea, a cone-shaped ramp nut could be positioned at the end of the shaft or along it with a jam nut. A spring-loaded half nut would then roll up onto the ramp to disengage. I think both concepts could offer some interesting functionality. Let me know your thoughts, and if you’d like to chat further! Best, Dean
@@jameselliott9397 thank you
@@EnglishHobbyMachinist Let me know if you design one.
very nice work , where can i find the drawings ?
@@jeffreylehn8803 hi there is a link here www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/threads/mini-oilcan.29031/
That's a cute one. A real beauty. Nice job.
@@Rustinox Thank you 👍👍
Hi Nice make I have the same plans but have not the time to start it yet it is not long till xmas but I must finsh the rest off the other plans I have started from Brian w.germany
@@brianclark2370 like me, you sound as if you have a list 😂
Perfect little oil can. Would look great next to one of your engines. I'm glad you found the bit that flew of the lathe. I've lost so many parts this way. Cheers Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop Thanks Nobby 👍
Lovely job.👍
@@djhscorp thank you
Very nice work sir. That engine is going to look great
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir thank you
My goodness, those are some tiny parts. Very nice work.
@@jeff1176 thank you
Nice work, I love making little parts. Til next time, cheers!
@@howder1951 thank you
nice. I'm surprised the nut isn't a bigger diameter, could be a bit fiddly adjusting when running.
@@paulrayner4514 it doesn’t move when running it’s to lock the forward and reverse 👍👍
Looking great. Regard the nut knurling, couldn't you use a threaded mandrel to hold it for knurling?
@@stephenperry5849 Thank you, yes I could, but I am not that bothered. I don’t mind it how it is 👍👍
@EnglishHobbyMachinist Thank you for your reply, I am trying to learn the art of machining and every bit if advice helps. I just wanted to know it this was an option, I have a similar part on a wobbler engine I built, compressing the spring which I left smooth because I forgot to knurl before cutting off. It does look much, much better than the 10H I am trying to build! My first engine build from castings. I should have gone for something bigger. So far, I have had to make about 50% of the parts more than once, few are a good representation of the drawings!
@@stephenperry5849 yes it can be done, practice makes perfect 👍
More very nice looking parts Mark. ATB Nobby
@@nobbysworkshop Thank you 👍

i think you probably need to add zero to the numbers you see. that was not 325 rpm that was more like 3k.
