    its about time someone showed the true effort needed to process hard stones… i cut some small stones on one of my old metal lathes, but did not have rigid enough setup, so it didn’t work out that great. As a hobbyist machinist and an amateur stone sculptor i am extremely impressed!!great work!

I’ll add that I also started at the hobby level and it took me a lot of time, mistakes and not successful jobs to get here. And still learning and I'm very far from being a master of my craft.

But there must have been a lathe which i wish was still around for us to see it sadly they have likely rusted into obilvion by now.

      Thank you. In this case, I did not use the tailstock as it simply got in the way of the carriage. Also, the diameter of the part is twice its length, and with this ratio you can work without support. This setup is not very rigid but is suitable for this project. In the near future I plan to make the machine also beautiful, so stay tuned.

We also modified older heavy cast metal working machinery until we could afford top notch German and Italian machines. Great job this should be very inspring for enthusiasts and younger future stone masons.

    I'd for sure want to do this on a vertical lathe and with a wrap around everything to stop that grit from getting into everything and destroying it. I think that lathe would be all but destroyed by this. A miracle the bearings lasted through this due to stress. I was expecting some support from a tail stock center. All is well that ends well but I'd be worried this did invisible - at least in this video - damage to the lathe on several fronts: Abrasive damage to all moving parts and destroyed bearing from both a heavy load and an unbalanced load.

    • @madeofstone7619
      @madeofstone7619  6 месяцев назад +2

      Thanks for your comment. Do not worry. I made sure that the spindle of this machine is designed to hold twice the weight of the part in the video without tailstock support.
      As for the guides, they are already dead and I plan to rebuild the entire structure anyway. If we talk about cutting forces, they can be neglected since the saw blade rotates and cuts instead of a stationary cutter. Also the work was performed at very low speeds of about 4 rpm. to solve the problem of unbalanced load. But given the choice, I would choose a vertical lathe. And here I absolutely agree with you.

    First off, BEAUTIFUL work. Machining something as hard as granite is no joke, and restoring that lathe to operational is rad, I would love to do the same someday. Very impressive work.
    Now, how hard would it be to make it uniform down to 1/1000th of an inch, and how hard would it be to core out the inside of it and make it so that the wall thickness is about .02" thick, also keeping it within a thousandths of an inch tolerance, without chipping it? Could you do it without a lathe or any steel/diamond tools? And if not, then how did the pre-dynastic Egyptians do it over 5000 years ago, before the use of the wheel, or even iron tools? I only ask this because recently there has been an investigation into some of the more than 40,000 vases found under one of the pyramids, that were made in this fashion. They were made out of granite and schist, diorite, corundum, etc, and were dated (by what they were buried with) as being pre-dynastic. Some of them are so thin that the granite actually becomes transparent. There are no tool marks on them, and many are not only made within 1000th of an inch tolerance, they are made geometrically perfect, using advanced mathematical properties, and anyone who's tried working with this stuff (like you) would be a welcomed and powerful voice in the conversation about how these things could have been made thousands of years ago without any metal tools or even the wheel. It's a big mystery. There's no question on how old they are, there's no question on what they are made of, and there's no interest within archaeology to understand how it was done, they say "we were only concerned with what was inside of them, not how they were made". It's a baffling mystery, and anyone who works with this material would be able to understand it more than the average person. Look up Uncharted-X on youtube and you'll see what I'm talking about.

      First of all - thank you. As for the video with the vases, I watched it. You must understand that I am not an archaeologist or an Egyptologist, so everything I say should not be taken as a fact, but only my opinion. I have doubts about the appearance of these vases and such accuracy. Firstly, erosion. How they survived 5000 years to the present day in this condition. I know that Egypt has a good climate and much of what was found was buried almost in a vacuum, but still. Secondly, as far as I know, having valuables from Egypt in private collections is prohibited by law. Of course some people have them in their hands. But I don’t think such people will demonstrate this publicly. Third. I personally have been to Egypt. I saw many similar vases and not one was in such perfect condition as the ones in the video. And also the methods and facts that are shown in the video are not entirely scientific to convince me of the reliability of the information they provide. To put the question differently, is it possible to make such a vase with a simple tool? I think yes. For example, high-precision surface plates are still made by hand. Of course, the machine does most of the work. But precise adjustment is done by hand.

      I'm not an expert. This is just my opinion and the information I could find. But: large rectangular blocks were processed with a “hammer and chisel” to a certain degree of precision. Angles of 90 degrees are not that difficult to maintain. The Egyptians knew the Pythagorean theorem. As for polishing, there are several opinions. One of the most common is a wooden block with small particles of abrasive (harder stone) embedded in it. To check the plane, they used the same method as now - a surface plate.

I can assume that these finds were well kept from weather conditions, etc. I can also assume that initially the vases had such precision. And still, they would not have survived to this day with these high tolerances. For example, the meter and kilogram standards are stored in vacuum chambers and still become smaller over a relatively short period of time.
