Very well done. I run a lively engineering firm, CNC machining and fabrication company. I'm impressed at your methods and way of thinking. Channels like this are what make RUclips one of the greatest resources of our time.
I've always soaked a towel in water and wrapped it around the ball screw behind the area where I will be machining. Heat with a torch to a nice cherry red and allow to cool naturally. This will anneal the hardened area and allow machining. Companies that do this work daily use an induction coil to quickly heat the screw in he area needed to achieve the same result. My experience with using PCD inserts on these screws is that the interrupted cut with the threads tends to chip your insert tip long before the job is finished. PCD works great for general hard turning but are extremely brittle.
I dont think your reasoning at 2:19 is correct. Situation no 2 is fully encompassed in situation no 1. Even though from vector direction perspective you are right, the size of vector no 2 is going to be significantly smaller. Again: situation no 2 is present in situation no 1, except in situation no 1 there are other more dominant forces.
Very well done.

Thanks! We've learned so much from all the talented folks on RUclips, and we wanted to join the community.

we've always make a soft end at the ballscew with some heat. Works also fine.
Carbide grade is most important, with coating and geometry being close second
Nice explaining
Ceramic inserts !! 60 Rockwell from memory ,.. smoke that
Nice.
How much cost one of those vall screws in the end? Is it polished too?

interesting
Haha you guys need a machinist on staff
