Hmm yes I like Rob Renzetti's concept of keeping the chuck back plate as it is integral to the stiffness. I have an independent 4-jaw as well as a nice Forkardt 3-jaw which both need a hard jaw boring job. I wonder if there is a use anyway for a set-tru type chuck once you have the jaws bored properly. In fact my Forkardt runs around 0.02 TIR as it now is. But yes there is air at the front part of the jaws. If you are interested I have made a blog post about a novel way to machine hard chuck jaws. It has been proven nearly impossible to share a link in the comments so if you are interested I can mail the link.

Good looking out with the set screw👍

I guarantee you it would have come out with a pair of vice grips…what a waste of time.

Thank you! I am considering installing eye-hooks in the garage floor. This is so I can better man-handle the 5,100-pound Chevrolet Express van with a come-a-long. Great tips throughout this video.

Nice programing.

Where to buy in india Maharashtra & price.

Thanks for this content

Can you use these in bricks?

OMG! I LOVE THIS

Shop is getting small!

Very well done! Subscribed!!

Music 👎

I was 10-11 when I got introduced in hobby grade RC. My first RC was my older brother Marui Big Bear.

I wish we worked together, bro. My pet peeves: stuff not being where it’s supposed to be, lack of organization, having to do a major clear up just to start a project. You hit the nail on the head. It DRAINS me! Sadly I seem to be an outlier in this regard. My biggest working life aggrevation. My skills are with fabrication and any time not spent fabricating is lost money and disruptive to my thinking process as far as I’m concerned. I use the Schaller bins extensively at home and have been for at least 15 years now since I found them. I like some of your labeling suggestions too. Thanks for making me feel not so much like a nut job (although the name probably applies).

Intinya end mill harus lebih keras dari pada material TAP itu sendiri ya bang?

Thank you..

Awesome! I'm building one

For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; 15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again. 16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:14-21

Thank you. I had this crazy idea for a gigantic crank that would fill the crankcase. This looks like what I was thinking. Know I have a name for it so I can learn more.

what if you don't have a milling machine?

Very cool

Very cool, I came real close to getting a Nichols, but I want sure about that axis lever. Glad to hear it's a nice addition

Nice Equipment never seen handle for A axis. Nice work :)

I've come back to this video several times ,I've been torn between a larger bench-top mill & an 8" x 32" even larger mill (nearly 2x the weight, I think I'm going with the larger mill.

Hey Chris, nice anvil! Looks like either a Peter Wright or a German Trenton based on the steps on the feet, a Hay Budden wouldn't be marked in hundred weight. Are there any indentations on the bottom?

I get picked on at work for using an edge finder without the spindle moving - glad to see I'm not the only one! I find it more consistent than the spinning method

Thanks for the video. I guess the cone won’t be totally concentric with the shaft unless the 3 jaw has little run out. I would have used a collet if available. Cheers.

I have difficulty balancing, in my own head, the merits of some of these safety mechanisms with the danger of forming a dependency on them. If my shop had all self-ejecting chuck keys, would I depend on that mechanism and be less rigorous in training myself with the discipline to always remove a chuck key? Or am I just rationalizing an avoidance of self-ejecting keys because they are (marginally) annoying to use? I do think it's lost on some people (cf. M.W.) that these are important habits to form and even if a given machine cannot conceivably throw the chuck key or meaningfully crash itself with the key in place, that's not true on every machine, and the habits we form are with us for the future on all machines that we use. Hopefully this video helps to send that kind of message.

Won't the set screws dig in a bit enough to always try to set into the first grooves it made ?

Question... is vacuuming the hole out necessary when setting anchors in the ceiling?... like when setting racks/trapeze for conduit? Sometimes it can be challenging after hammer drilling to go ahead and set anchors. Wondering if this may be an overlooked step... also curious if dust/debree is a factor with drilling in the ceiling or does gravity solve that issue?

Copy that on the vacuum cleaner and the special considerations for machining cast iron. Again, I always have a vacuum cleaner present so I don't disperse chips and and using compressed air around an open tool receiver is bad news. Cleaning as you go saves so much time and not sealing with an accumulating mess. Always take a clean finger and check the receiver opening before inserting a tool. Nice upgrade and Im considering the modification to a chuck based on your work.

Mainly just get what you want. You can always upgrade. I am new to machining but always wanted to learn on a BP. So that’s what I got. My upgrade was a DRO. I also purchased a LeBlond Regal 13x30 lathe. I am really happy with both.

Good advice, just the quandary i was considering, my opinion was surely old America is better than new Chinese. But there is a real factor in how it was kept.

Thanks for the idea and link.

Nice ... interesting work, but s in the comment below, annoying music. I'm watching you use compressed air while you're drilling. Don't understand a machinist who use air instead of a vacuum cleaner .... great though for blowing chips everywhere. I clean as I go.

I don’t recommend six jaw chucks for almost anyone. Unless you’re constantly working tubing, you don’t need them. You can only put precision ground parts into a six jaw chuck. It seems that on RUclips, six jaw chucks appears to be a thing. Most high quality chucks are finish ground after fitting, but the dust should be removed before shipping.

yes sir this is one of the better videos covering this topic good job

Great topic. In my experience it is not enough to emphasize mindfulness and safety awareness. Safety should be integrated into workflow. When I began my apprenticeship I was shown the lathes in the shop. "Every lathe has a holder for the chuck key." "There are only two places for a chuck key your hand and that holder." "Never start the lathe spindle without looking directly at the chuck key holder." No one in our shop ever threw a chuck key. This is just one example of safe workflow.

Meanwhile Matthias Wandel: "it doesn't matter, look!"... I sometimes hate the guy for being the epitome of unnecessary risks and even telling others to do that. Who still remembers his very sketchy system for moving construction scaffolding? I do...

As a kid playing around in my dads workshop I left a chuck key in our big lathe, it flew past my head and smashed into a 60's Austin-Healey we were working on...... Yeah i didnt do that again, good video!

the fact you are using inches is your first down fall

this lad is a safety freak and is over reacting and is forgetting no real machinist stands in front of the chuck so 30+ years in the trade an only once have seen a chuck key fly and it just hit the floor job done and you'll only do it once so stop making a big deal out of nothing

sorry but it looks like you don't know how to use an edge finder correctly please explain your way as we may be missing something

Great reminders that we all need from time to time - thanks, Chris!

Well done!

Self ejecting chuck key ;) . A good old fashioned spring lol. I also understand your approach. Some risk is necessary for building discipline, which is proportional to safety. I think there is another solution that I haven't seen yet. Imagine if the chuck key was necessary for the power to the motor. A key as a key, if you would. Seems simple enough, but I've never seen somebody do it. Maybe I should make one. Having the home where you put the chuck key within the eyesight of the motor on-switch can also help.

I saw a guy get killed by a lathe. It was from THE MOST DANGEROUS thing in the shop.....Cloth, It got his shirt sleeve and tore him into pieces.

I'm going to have to do this to my clausing machine now, my chuck used to be less than one thou- but the one time someone else used my machine, they left the key in the chuck and after a few hours of work I can only get it back to 3 thou...

thank you for the video and taking the effort to make the video

If you have a garage to put it and no steps buy a big one unfortunately i put my smaller pm25v clone in a different room and i can take it apart to move it anywhere
