Given that the request was to return to a "good" condition, one can extrapolate that Stefan's definition of "good" would be most peoples definition of perfect. Watching these uploads is like being invited to a world class lecture, the most enjoyable and educational content on RUclips.
👍
every time i lull myself into mediocrity i just watch stefen heh, snaps me right out of my "good enough" rut. lol
There are people with horrible skills, then people with some skills, then people that are good , then people that are really good and then there is Stefan's level . Amazing work Stefan 👏👏👏
eeeh he is just really good ,insane pecision would be range of tom lipton from ox tools.
@@zumbazumba1 Tom is excellent but Robin Renzetti works in jaw dropping detail when it comes to overall skillset as a toolmaker. Robin is also a master in his craft with eyeball deep nerdology. Stefan is excellent in his own right and has many more years ahead of him to grow. That being noted, Stefan is VERY good at his craft and shares much insight, sans any "bob's your uncle".
Oh wait, you forgot Peter from Edge Precision, he is the Yoda of CNC machining world
@@zumbazumba1 Is Tom Lipton really considered "more precise" than Stefan? Do other people agree with that? Genuine question. I am too ignorant in machining to have an opinion.
@@planaritytheory Imo Stefan is at least equal to Tom, but they both excel in there own slightly different areas.
Today I learned that "Dinkly dinked" is a technical term. What a glorious spring Sunday..
I was going to ask how that was spelled
It’s the European standards version of the ubiquitous Tom Lipton “Dingus McGhee” 😁
"This is a good time not to drop the spindle" always great quality content with your humor, thank you, Stefan 👍😊
Obviously you can tell Stefan has seen it, but for anyone who hasn't I do want to suggest people look up Robin Renzetti's video rebuilding his mill spindle, all of Robin's videos are excellent
That video will humble the greatest of precision veterans...(mill spindle is very different than a drill spindle though)
Indeed his videos are excellent but far too few of them.
"Let's take some dead Smurf and check this for fit" - Who says the Germans have no humor! Excellent rebuild!
Smurfs are from Belgium, not that funny for them! 😁
A suggestion for an option other than the double nitriles I learned from grilling use - cotton gloves inside the nitriles. It provides a really nice insulation layer while maintaining the dexterity you need and still costs next to nothing.
"à little bit of work" understatement of the year. This Flott must be a family heirloom.... Thanks for the nice video!
It is now
I am starting a formal petition to call Stefan Gotteswinter : "God of Machinery Stefan Gotteswinter". Anyone else agrees ?
Everything Stefan does is “precision” which is why I love
his channel, and does it with style.👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻✌🏻
when I do something it ends up 0,05mm off
👍
You should make carbide bladed scissors for your abrasive cutting needs. Would be a great project video.
carbide is good
but cbn is better ;)
actually you can buy carbide tipped scissors from medical supliers.
I saw ceramic-edged ones at an electrical supplier; they're for cutting the kevlar jacket on fiber-optic cable.
@@jimsvideos7201 you don't really need ceramics to cut kevlar, just make a quite rough 90 degree grind on decent steel scissors and they will cut kevlar just fine, rough texture helps holding the fibers from slipping out of the V, 90 degree grind is the magic ingredient
they won't last as long of course, but in a pinch it works very well on this tough bendy stuff
Why not just go to single crystal diamond scissors? Cost maybe?
Stefan rebuilding a drill press spindle so it can be used for brain surgery :-) Brilliant Stefan
If you see what drills they actually use to perform brain and spine surgery you will be dissapointed. I didn't know how crude these surgeries were until my spinal surgery failed and I ended up learning the nitty gritty myself (in the time of the internet one can just attend medical specialty schools like neurology, neurosurgery, radiologist and orthopedic without actually being a student there as long as you don't perform surgery on anyone who is alive) after a dozen doctors failed to see the obvious signs that other doctors were too ashamed to admit they missed too.
@@Sketch1994 they just use a normal drill people use in their garage
@@DolezalPetr Pretty much yes...just in stainless. And while I thought it's more like precision machining it's more like contractor's work...
@@Sketch1994 Doctor's are just mechanics that work on people.
@@orangedream267 It's like trying to fix leaks without first draining the liquid.
I have added "dinklie dink" to my shop vocabulary. Thanks Stefan, great work and video.
Really nice job on the Quill. That will be a really nice drill press now.
Excellent education in the finer parts of machining and tool making! Thank you for your constant precision and for your detailed explanation and commentary! You are the finest machinist/educator I have found on you tube and I aspire to achieve 1 tenth of your skill on my own projects!!!
I missed hearing the happiness perfection giggle. Great job.
That is one happy spindle, getting the Stefan Gotteswinters special spa treatment😁
Nice rebuild Stefan👍
Very nicely done Stefan! Enjoyed.
ATB, Robin
27:00 I'm gonna call that the set up of the year! Very good!
Some RUclips Creators attempt to conceal their intellect for the purpose of humor, some just modesty. Your abilities and intelligence show brightly without effort on your part, and you frequently perform work outside and beyond Paradigms.
Very awesome to observe your approach to improvements and enhancements to machines and components.
Not a dull or boring subject to be fair, but cool none the less. Thanks for posting!
Hi Stefan, Since I recently purchased a TB 10, I came across this video two days ago. By now I must have watched at least half the videos you have posted. Which means on Monday I‘ll be through.... very impressive whats possible in a basement shop. You really accumulated some serious equipement.
I‘ll definetely get in touch with you about my spindle.
Thanks to this video, I learned two things, besides how to put a drill press spindle together 😉
1. I learned why and how you preload bearings on a shaft.
2. Faber-Castell makes more than art supplies. I never knew they made stuff for machinists. I happen to like their PITT brush pens.
Nothing to add except to say thanks for the chance to see you work in your shop.Never a boring moment here.
es macht einfach Spass, dir zuzuschauen
Sometimes, just the simple non critical jobs can be the most satisfying. Simply awesome work, Stefan.
Nailed it!😄 What a nice job. That spindle nose came out perfectly. I couldn’t believe how well it blued up👍
yes ! what he said ! we are so fortunate to have you on RUclips. You
are always in some topic discussion around our round table in our shop
thank you for that. regards Skip
That drill press is now a mill. I learn something every time I watch your videos, thank you.
I really liked your setup with the electric screwdriver. Nice out of the box way of thinking.
Excellent workmanship as always.
Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and upload, it must add a lot of time on a job.
Funny I got bit by the hot bearing a few videos back when I was working on the valve grinder spindle and now you got the same thing. Makes me feel better about my oops. 😂 Might you should have ground a little off the end so no danger of the spindle end bottoming out before it reaches the taper? Seems that could possibly be an issue.
Beautiful job Stefan! It's worthy work to restore a well built machine to full service, preserving all the work the original makers put into the rest of the machine and allowing it to continue to serve :)
19:40 "It even keeps the coffee warm"
Hahaha, be honest, thats the main use 😁
That excitement/stress/rushedness of fitting that first bearing haha been there
Great video production...discussion/demonstration/build...enjoyed
I love the extra mile you go in your work. Very nice!
Wonderful to have a Stefan video for the weekend. Thanks for all that you teach us!
Just what I needed ! Thanks Stefan. Hope everything is getting healthier over there.
True craftsmanship. Awesome work. Thanks for sharing this.
Totally enjoyable learning experience as ever, Stefan. I’ve watched it three times already! Thanks for producing this stuff so well.
Stefan, very nice work as usual! Thanks for sharing. Joe
Great job as always on the rebuild, love how thorough you are and the explanations of why you do something as you are doing it. Thank you for sharing!
As usual, another informatve/entertaining video from the master. Thanks Stefan.
Definitely enjoyed and learned something. Thank you Stefan for a slight glimpse of the joy in your shop. 👍👍😎👍👍
Thank you Stefan. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and learn a lot from everyone of them.
Alles in ordnung, Stefan! Sehr gut!
That was fun and educational. Thanks Stefan.
Without a doubt I learned some useful things! Thanks, will continue to watch .
Thank you Stefan for another educational video. Thank you for the time you have taken to create this video for us 🙂
I will love a series where you restore or rebuild old machinery. I am big fan of your work Stefan. Cheers from Argentina
Very enjoyable watch. Really good info on the wire wool! I never realised it would have a cutting direction.
I love every video where you repair or improve the accuracy of metal working tools.
I always love watching you go to the a level of precision just beyond what is necessary. Thank you for explaining all of your decisions. Great video, THANKS!!!
Very nice job, love the cylindrical griding motor set up. Thanks .
Man I wish we could see the old drill press in action after this.
Everything done to spec. As always. Excellent explanations and perfect videography. Thank you very much.
Sooooo satisfying! Thank you Stefan!
great video and great information as always Stefan, thank you
I took an old junk Taiwanese drill press that someone was giving away. It had a Jacob's taper 2 1/2 on the spindle. I successfully converted the spindle over to JT6 and put a keyless chuck on it. Great usefull tool in the shop now. That was my first time to use the taper attachment that came on my Logan lathe.
Great Job Stefan!!! very satisfying as always. I have a drillpress that I'd like to rebuild the spindle on so Ill definitely be watching this one more than once!
Beautiful 110% quality as usual.
Magnificent workmanship!
Excellent video Stefan.
Thank you for another great video.
Your work habits are always spot on
and that is the way any young
machinist should learn the craft from
the start of his quest to be good at
what he/she does all thru life.
I'm glad you made a mistake with washer not being part of the Spindle because you did a perfect job, shows you are human.
Stunning work.
Very nice job on the rebuild. Thank you for taking the time to bring us along, and show us how a craftsman repairs a spindle.
That drill press has probably never been so smooth. As always, Thank You for the lessons learned.
Take Care and Stay Safe.
Bob
Excellent video! First time viewer. Great instructional technic. Attention to detail and practices great for novice and pro. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Brillant!! Congratulations.
I did enjoy that Stefan............simple workshop practices on the bearing change and still I learn something. I like you videos very much!!
Nice work Stephan, cheers, Doug
Excellent job, you do some amazing things,
I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Seems each time I learn something new. This time it was the hint about steel wool. I was never taught there was a good way in a wrong way. Thank you.
Your pointer long time ago about CRATEX has improved many a part!
Perfect timing as always Stefan, once I finish this itll be right on bed time haha
Did I hear a contentment sigh? too good ! love your work Stefan! that made my day.
very good job stefan..thanks for your time
"Better than factory" is like music to the ears
That was totally fascinating and entertaining .
Great tutorial. Will give this treatment this weekend to my Aldi drill press.
Awesome skill...Great communication...excellent teacher...Thank You.
Always enjoy your video. There different, not your typical machining videos.
Servus Stefan, a very interesting video, thanks for showing it.
Fantastic work Stefan turning a worn out drill press into a precision machine again!
Nice work Stefan.
I've learned so much from watching you. Thanks again.
SEEMS TO BE BETTER THAN A NEW ONE !
Thank you. Masterful as always.
Superb work!
Thanks for sharing! :)
I like your spindle turning motor!
Nice! Job well done, thanks for sharing.
Excellent content! Thank you!
Sweet, new video! The rest of my Sunday can wait 40 minutes. Nobody tell Robin he wasn't using the whole surface of the precision ground stones.
THANK YOU STEFAN, REALY GOOD AND INTERSTING. REGARDS RICHARD.
Stefan, I am always amazed by the high quality of the work you do! You may have exceeded NASA specifications on this spindle. I cannot thank you enough for what I am learning from your videos. I completely understand your comment about how much fun this work is. Sadly, I think we will be losing a great deal of the knowledge craftsmen like you possess since too many children today are afraid to get their hands dirty. :-(
Yeah, 6.35mm hex shank. Lovely work as always Stefan.
I really liked how You did the tapered grinding just indicating it in. Great result. The axial load of a groved bearing is quite good, best for deep groved ones. Had several arguments with people on this, its in the data sheets. I think the issues people have are more from improper alignment and pre load. And sometimes over lubricating which causes heat problems.
yes i caught a 1 in drill bit in a work piece and bent our drill press (visibly), yey that back bearing was pretty rough sounding, the axle bearing on a john deere 4430 uses a hot install course its a 4 in axle shaft, cool job my first time watching
I enjoy your channel , you are one of the few who have an understanding of what you're doing. To qualify that, I am retiring soon as a mechanical engineer and a class A tool maker in my own precision mold / job shop. I just don't know why all the RUclips machinists turn their grinder spindles off after they dress them. Once you dress a wheel it is in dynamic balance and should not be shut off till grinding is complete. I have over 40 years experience in high precision grinding. Everything we do is in the micro range. Take it for what it's worth.
Thanks I enjoyed this video. I also figured out what to do with my old NiCad Cordless Drill. I have a old bench top Canedy-Otto drill press with external taper. Someday I will get around to restoring it. I measured run out with a indicator in a chuck relative to the bed and it was pretty much spot on. The only problem is the chuck sometimes falls off because the taper is a little beat up. I am checking eBay because I am thinking about replacing with a internal taper because I have a lot or taper shank drills. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing! Very interesting.
