Видео

You're welcome. And thank you for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

I agree, heck yeah!!! That was a fun video to make. And, using my rotary table did it for me. Thanks for watching.

Thank you Doc. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Just gave that Lathe away.🙂. I hope the young man I gave it to enjoys it.

@GlennNowOnRUclips I would have loved it my shop Hulkster!

Good Morning to you too, Sir. That old Lathe was fun to run. I'll miss it. Just gave it to a young man last week. His first lathe. Thanks for watching.

I have had this crappy little lathe for over 20 years. It has always gotten the job done. As far as the spindle bearings go. After changing them out for tapered roller bearings and setting the preload with a .0005 test indicator I took the original bearings apart only to find standard ball bearings. If you are interested, go to my channel and find my video " Steel Gears and Tapered roller bearings " I thought it was a pretty good video. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Sounds interesting. No doubt you are very mechanically inclined. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I kind of decided how I was going to mount the variable speed unit. Having a pivot point and a way to lock it in after setting the proper tension. I'm still undecided about the motor. I have a video coming out in two weeks. Saturday, making the variable speed pivot bracket. That would be 9/7/24. Thanks for watching.

I'm glad you found it funny. I just uploaded a real video showing some progress on the Big Motor Upgrade project and should be out next weekend. Have a great week and thanks for being part of and commenting on my channel.

Thanks Doc, I have a couple of videos finished and posted that will be coming out on this project soon. But you're right, Life can get in the way if you let it. Thanks again for watching.

Hello, I'm using a quick change tool post that I purchased at The littlemachineshop.com . Not to bad and a good price 👍.

I ordered the bearings from Amazon. Here's the Info I used when I ordered mine. 30206 Taper Roller Wheel Bearings 30 x 62 x 17.25 The brand was VXB. I just googled that info and my old Amazon order came up. Good luck with your project.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips Thankyou Sir.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊.

Thank you.

Thank you. You are exactly right. I wanted it, so I made it. That project was lots of fun.

Thank you very much. It was a fun project.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's been hard to get out to the shop lately, with temperatures around 100 degrees. This video was put together with footage I ran across on my computer. I have, managed to put together another Big Motor Upgrade video that will be out soon. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips I heard that!! I got out there this week, even in the 80s with 80 percent humidity it's a challenge.

The weather has really been weird lately, here in Colorado. Although it has been Hot and Dry for the last few weeks, Now the last couple of days it has been Cold and Rainy. Crazy Weather.

Thanks Doc, That project was easier than I thought it was going to be. Had fun doing it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

On this job I was thinking about .002 clearance. That gives some room for oil. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Until next time.

Good morning Doc. Its always good to know the proper way to do something. Gald I could help.😊

Thank you, I like running that old lathe. It's a 1953 Logan, I was born in 1951. I was 2 years old when that machine was built. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips You are welcome

Thanks, That was just a quicky lathe job. But, Next Week, Another Big Motor Upgrade Video.

I like running that old junk lathe every once in a while. Paid $350 for it 20 years ago. Thanks for watching Doc.

Thanks for the advice. Take some pictures when you build the spacer and post them on RUclips. I subscribed to you so I will get to see your work when you post.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

That all sounds like good advice, I need to do the same. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks, I have more Big Motor Upgrade coming. I think about 2 weeks.

Thanks Doc. I have more Big Motor Upgrade videos coming in a couple of weeks and some fast and dirty Quicky videos also. Until next time Enjoy.

Thanks Mike, And Yes the deadblow hammer is from HFT, where else 😆

@@GlennNowOnRUclips have you seen the ICON ball peen dead blow hammer 🔨?

@@slingerssecretlaboratory No, I haven't. From HFT ?

@GlennNowOnRUclips Yessir, it great for working soft metals (copper, brass, etc). I think I'm sensing a review video 🤔

@@slingerssecretlaboratory It sounds like my type of video. Go for it.🙂

Thanks for watching. Hope you had a great 4th. Until next time, Enjoy 😉

Yep, Smart people think alike. 🤔 lol.

Thanks Doc.👍

The price is right too. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

Sure, its possible. With the right type of cast iron the right tooling/fixtures precision measuring instruments and a way to heat treat the finished product. But as far as doing it on a mini lathe. Why not? Yes, it depends on who is running the machine.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips Thanks Glen, I will get myself a mini lathe, All the best fella 👍

@@BillSikes. All the luck to you.

Hello Bob, As far as that saying goes. This video was kind of a test. You know, like, how ture is that saying. I think that from now on I will start being a little more careful. Thanks for watching

Thanks.

Thanks Doc, As a Shop Manager I was forever telling the young Guys & Gals to slow down and you will get the job done sooner and most likely Right the first time. It took me 5 trys to make that little bushing. Of course I was in a hurry to do some yard work. At the last minute I decide to use some of what I filmed. It appeared so funny during editing. Anyway, I'm glad you got something outof my video. Thanks for watching Mike.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips Yessir, "slow and steady wins the race"

Thank You, I'm glad you enjoyed my video.

Hey Joe, To think about doing that pulley complete on that little lathe scared me. That little chuck could only hold on to about 1/2" . And because I felt the video was going to be about putting in the grooves, on the pulley. I decided to use an arber and gauge blocks for accuracy. I think that I would have approached the job differently if I was using a larger machine. After 50 some years in a machine shop There is one thing I learned. There is no one right way to make a part. And that all depends on who you're talking to. Its good to hear from you Joe. Have a great weekend. 👍

I can't agree with you more. Retired and Loveing it.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips ☺️

You're not kidding Doc. But I'm having fun doing it. Doing the work, filming and editing all while going on vacations spending time with my wife my adult children and my grandchildren. Being retired can really exhaust a person. Thanks for watching Mike.

Hey Joe, I'm really having fun with this video series. A few more videos and we will see how well it all works out. The charts, I've been collecting them ever since I've been 15 years old. Almost 60 years. Most tool supply companies have them as advertisement. Get on line , fine their email and ask for one. Thats what I have done. I probably have 50 or more charts. But its the old ones I like. Hey, thanks for watching and commenting.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips Oh, that's pretty neat. Sometimes the tool guys and customers drop of random things like mouse pads and coasters along with occasional donuts and what not. I figured maybe it was something like that. I'll have to check more into it now that I know. Thanks man!

In an earlier video I rebuilt the carriage. Then I did a video changing out the spindle bearings. I put in tapered roller bearings.I also changed out all the gears with steel ones. I guess the answer too your question would be No, not with out a lot of work. The next thing most likely will be the Tool post. But, I am having fun doing this as a hobby. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@GlennNowOnRUclips you might try filling the entire bed with epoxy granite . There’s a good number of RUclips’s where they filled Chinese machine tools with epoxy granite and yielded amazing improvement to rigidity .

I'll look into that. Sounds interesting. Thanks.

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it 😀.

Thanks, glad you like it. I've got a lot more on this upgrade. I'm trying to only use parts I have or can find in the shop. I thought that would turn into a lot more hobby machining videos, trying to make things fit and work.

Not to many more to go. I hope. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Had to do that the other day. Completely missed the mark and had to move the punch mark. You know it might even be worth it's own video. Thanks for watching and a great video idea.

Sounds like you know what you're doing. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks, Not many people use this method. The purpose of the stop is to locate the position of the material in the vise. CNC machines are programed from a X0 Y0 coordinates. Everytime I removed the part from the vise I would lose position of that part. I had to keep resetting the Z0 or Z axis zero because of the height difference. Plus as a Aerospace Machinist you are taught to alway set a stop as part of your setup.

I have one. Very easy to use. But, I don't use it much. Back in the day, 30 years as a Tool and Die Maker I punched and drilled a lot of holes. It's like 2nd nature to just use a spot punch. Maybe I'll do a video on the automatic spring punch. Thanks for watching Doc.
