Each video in this series is more interesting than the previous. No telling how many 1000's of amateur machinists will benefit from this. Thanks for the video.
Thanks
The world famous Tubalcain. You are spoken of by two generations that I know and I'm the third. You are watched, loved and treasured. We're watching....
👍
Of course I'm watching! A new 'mrpete222' shop video always calls for a fresh mug of coffee and then settling down for a spot of video-watching.
Lol, yes Tubalcain you have many fans who are enthralled by your "dungeon" workshop shenanigans! I have learned so much from watching your videos and had some great laughs as well. Your efforts are much appreciated and valued.
Awesome, thank you!
It looks like you had a full class, as it should be. The best part about internet shop class is the pause button. That way I neither miss a moment of your wisdom nor disrupt the class when I refill my coffee. Nice job Mr. Pete.
Thank you very much👍
I'm watching, and I'll see this whole series through. I started an apprenticeship in 1972, and I love the many nuggets you so effortlessly dispense. Additional studies and examinations took me off the tools, but retirement sees me enjoying the immense satisfaction of turning rough metal into useful tools and equipment. As much as you show the how of the work, you share the philosophy of safe, methodical craftsmanship that is becoming all too rare. Long may you continue.
👍👍
Watching Mr. Pete while doing the dishes, the old fashion way. Makes the time fly for a chore I don't look forward to.
lol
I am an electrical engineer and I am watching! It is fascinating to watch something done that I CAN NOT DO while being instructed by such a knowledgeable person.
Thank you very much
Mr. Pete, I watch ALL of your videos as they are released - and I'm working my way through your back catalog. You are a big piece of my late life machining & shop education, and I am very grateful to you.
Thank you very much, I’m glad you like the videos
Yes, we're all watching!
Mr Pete's videos are one of the highlights of the week.
I always watch and listen all the way through. 👍
Oh yeah Mr. Pete I'm watching and do with all your videos. I learn so much from them.
Thanks
16:27 a tip for working like this. When you finish for the day move your spindle back to 0 and 0 that way if the power goes out you can easily pick back up from the correct location.
Good idea
I am actually watching this years later, your teaching goes on... Thank you!
Thanks
Yes I am watching. Me, my cup of coffee and Mr Pete. Church and breakfast in a couple of hours, but a great way to start the day!
I watched the whole video, and it was NOT boring. I still learn new and different ways of doing things.
Thank You !!!!!!
Thank you very much
Your explaining of the use of the dividing head is very useful . This is not taught much now .Thank for the lesson and will looking forwarded for more. Bob in PA.
Yes, I’m watching, in fact I watch them all, I also went back the beginning and tried to watch all of them too (unless I missed 1 or 2). Thank you Mr Pete
Thanks for all the effort in this video! Shows how easy it would be to make a mistake.
The symmetry on that part is beautiful. Thank you for showing the entire process.
Merry Christmas to you and yours
We are not only watching, we are enjoying.
I am definetly watching this. Thank you so much!
We love it! Only our Mr Pete could do this. Bless his heart.
Yes I'm with you still Mr Pete, great job.
Makes me want to build one! I don't even have 1 dividing head. Great video, keep up the good work.
Well Mr. Pete sir, the most complex piece of tooling I own is a torque wrench. I have got 0 use for a dividing head, let alone handmade plates for one. But what I HAVE got use for is just the sheer enjoyment from watching your videos. Your skill and dedication, as well as your generosity of sharing all your knowledge are greatly appreciated!
Thanks 👍👍
Another fine job. Watching every min. I made a Fusion 360 model of the plate as you went along. Thanks Lyle
I think you already know that my Wisconsin friend Tom printed some plates for me. I think he said you helped him. That will be a later video
@@mrpete222 Yes he sent me his videos. I sent him flexible model so you can set up just about any index disc.
Absolutely I am watching! I miss my basement dungeon workshop ( which never was anywhere near so well equipped, but it was MY basement dungeon workshop 😎👍).
Yes I'm watching and learning. Please continue.
👍
Yep, I think everyone is watching. I've been needing to make a new plate for my dividing head. Nothing to stop me now. 😃
👍👍
Thank you Mr. Pete, as always another great video packed full of valuable information.
I love old school machine work, Keep doing the videos, Mr. Pete, 65 year old and still learning.
Thanks
Ofcourse we're watching Lyle! Tks for spreading your knowledge, the stuff your teaching has saved me a lot of time when I am tinkering in my hobby garage.
👍👍
Mr Pete we are (always) watching, youre a rare source of knowledge and experience thats hard to come by these days . Theres a small handfull of channels I watch for new videos every week and youre at the top of my short list, God bless you sir.
Thank you, keep watching
I'm watching!!! Still trying to figure out how I'm going to make mine.
I am watching, and learning. Thank you
Yes we are watching! Fresh cup of hot coffee and little dog in lap :) Keep up the great work! You remind me very much of my 9th grade metal shop teacher back in 1970/71. He had a passion for teaching.
👍👍👍
Great show, had to make an 11 hole disk for a 5c spin dex. used the hole circle function on my dro turned out great. looks like the ones you did also are fine.The old photos of you are priceless. wow the 90's I'm positive I'll be watching re-runs of this show 30 years from now thinking back. I loved machining back then too. thanks
Thanks
Im watchin ya pete, im watchin ya!!!😂😂😂
😄
I dont think the video is to long for the people that are interested in this type of work. I absolutely love and learn a lot from the videos you make. Thank you again so much for your time and knowledge. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.
Excellent tutorial! I learn so much from your method of teaching. Thank you!
Thanks
Even though my DRO has a great bolt hole program, I always put a Sharpie in the drill chuck and run through the complete program making a dot at each coordinate. This way I have Sharpie marks to make sure it looks right.
That sounds like a mighty good practice
Yes, Mr. Pete ... we are out here watching! I love your shop classes. Thank you for sharing.
👍
Interesting to the very end! Thanks Mr. Pete!
Thanks
Always watch your channel learn something new keeps the mind active and healthy
Thanks
Thank you Lyle, I received an BS-1 Precision Matthews dividing head for Christmas (early) and you are the first place I went for instruction. Metal shop was my favorite classes in high school and it’s a crime that most schools don’t offer much if any hands on training. I was a pipefitter for 34 years until health problems forced my retirement, you as well as Adam Booth are my new shop teachers and I can’t thank you enough. My wife’s family lives in Ottawa and I may ask for your address when I come out next spring to bring you a small gift of appreciation. Again thank you Mr Pete not many people left that give like you do.
You got a nice Christmas present. Many of the boys liked my machine shop class. Too bad most schools have dropped it
Excellent series! Not a lot of dividing head videos out there especially ones with personal mods. You've sparked some great ideas. Really like the close up project shots at the end and the personal remanisant shots like the what ever it takes to lift this machine one with the scaffolding. Necessity -- Mother of invention.
Nice job. There’s something aesthetically pleasing about the hole patterns on these index plates. They remind me of drilled brake rotors.
Yes
Don’t ever worry about the length of your videos as yours are always chock full of excellent instruction and content.
Thank you very much
I did watch the entire video, to answer your question! Well done, as always. Thank you.
I watch all your videos.
Thanks, Lyle. I always learn something from your videos, even though I may never use the lesson later. Jon
Watched the whole video. You did a decent job of cutting it down thanks. Keep well.
Really enjoyed the video mr pete....and yes I watched the whole process 🤪
Watched all of it,and gave the thumbs up.
Thanks
I'm watching from OZ. Mesmerized. Love your work.
Thanks
Yes, I've watched the whole thing and enjoyed seeing it all. BTW you're never truly alone, but no one wants to distract you when you're concentrating on tedious yet critical details. Thanks again.
Thanks
I'm watching! Very therapeutic...and I don't have to clean up chips!
some time ago I bought an old dividing head that had been in a barn for decades. it was seized up and only had 1 plate. I got it cleaned up but some day I must make the rest of the plates for it. its interesting to see the process of making plates.
Sounds like a good project for you
Darn right I'm watching! I watch all your videos. In fact, I wish we were neighbors because I'd like to borrow a dividing head and a rotary table. I asked my neighbor here in Virginia but he's worthless! Keep them coming Mr. Pete, love all your vids.
Thank you
I hope there will be 2 more. Enjoying this series.
I was an apprentice tool and die make in1964 the tool room had two mills .All your small lathes were Hardanges the adds call them the toolmakers dream and they were.
Thankyou Mr Pete, your teaching really really helps, just like dropping the engagement pin a lil earlier then dragging it to the required hole, this really is the trick i was not able to figure out. Thankyouagain
👍
Come on, Lyle looking back I believe you enjoyed every minute of it.
Play safe From Elliot Lake Ontario Canada.
Having no actual, hands on experience in machining, I find your videos informative and entertaining. I hope to some day have a lathe and mill of my own.
Thank you for watching. Yes buy some machines
Yes Mr Pete, I am watching and glued to the screen !!! ( fantastic presentation as usual )
Thanks
Mr. Pete I really enjoy your videos
Thank you very much
I am watching from my seat on the front row of my shop class with a great shop teacher.
Thanks
Hay pete i looked up ur handle in the bible, freakin awsome man!!!😂😂😂
Hey, thanks!
Merry Christmas Mr. Pete.
Love the digressions, makes it all the more real. The vertical mill and all its attachments has to be the most fascinating machine to learn on.
Yes indeed, merry Christmas
Oops, gotta make some coffee. This is a great series. Some times you can get a head cheap, that doesn't have the plates. This will help immensely. We love long Tubalcain Videos. The interweb sure make things easier, but if you can't do the math....you will eventually fail. Millennials would be lost without their calculators! LOL Another great video!!
I have a Kempsmith #1 Universal milling machine. 2,700 pounds. It was lifted into the trailer by a gantry crane. However, at my end I had to unload it by myself with nothing more than rollers and a floor jack that I used to incline the trailer and then a chain fall that I used to control the thing as it rolled down the slightly inclined trailer bed. It was a fun afternoon.
Wow, that sounds scary
Mr Pete ,you could use the two sided dividing plates with a rotary table.There may be viewers that are not aware that this is possible ! Adds a whole new dimension to the use of your rotary table.
How do you mean?
Watching and paying close attention.
👍
Yes, I'm keen to learn how to fix up my lath. to do just this job keen as mustard. son. Les England
We're all here with you, Sir.
I'm watching! Showing the detail is important and I appreciate it. Thank you and wonder no more. There is at least one man out there that wants the detail. Merry Christmas!
👍
It's a couple of days later, but yes I too am actually watching.
Thanks
Always watching and learning. Thank you Mr. Pete!!!
Merry Christmas and thanks for your efforts to make this videos happen
Thank you, merry Christmas to you
This was interesting on the whole dividing head method, however I picked up a nugget on the arbor, I do a lot of turning of oblong stock into rounds the pin in the arbor is a useful trick and I'll will be doing that in my 1/2 bolt arbors. Thank you for the tip
👍
Thanks for the cardio check-up! Apparently, I am not faint of heart since I did, indeed, watch the whole video (as I have with the previous episodes).
All the best,
-- Joe
Im watching Mr. Pete
I have two Kearney and Trecker diving heads.. One is a model H 40:1 the other is a model K 5:1... These ratios are at the crank... The input shaft is so arranged that both are 40:1 between the input shaft and spindle so that either can be used for spiral or helical work with the same lead attachment.... Mike in Louisiana
Thank you, that is interesting to know
19:00 Yes, someone is.
What does the clamp ring do on the outside of the dividing head plate?
Thanks for the video.
@@donnerpartysupplies5187 If you look (for example at 6:47) you can see that it is used to secure the plate from rotating.
I love the video. Love the photos. Love the backstories. Need more stories!!!
I’m running out of good stories
Hardinge Mfg. is in my area, Never been inside and talk is slim if at all. Its said they can cut and hold in the millionths, i have my reservations about that number, good video , got a flash back of loooong time ago.
Love your stories!!!!
lol
Mr. Pete,
Would it be more accurate to drill the holes with a screw machine length drill? Would the accuracy be better if you used an undersize screw machine drill, then ream with a 1/8 inch reamer? I know this would be slow with the change of drill and reamer. Just curious if it would be worth it. Could you do a short course on rotary tables and rotary index heads. Perhaps with some setups for cutting external gears.
Great video. Merry Xmas and Happy New Year.
Awesome job! Always watch every minute Mr. Pete! I can appreciate just how much time goes in making these videos for us.
Thanks
LOVED the math! Brilliant and simple (now why didn't I think of that!)
I do plan on making an index plate for my own mini-lathe sometime in the future. That will be most useful.
Thank you so much for sharing the fine details and fascinating process.
Your efforts are really appreciated. Thanks
Well done.
THANK YOU...for sharing. Watched and very much enjoyed.
I appreciate the gift of your time.
Lyle,,Thank you for that. Well done. regards Frank
Yes, I am watching!
Still learning from my internet shop teacher.👍 Merry Christmas from NC, and a joyous and prosperous new year.😁
Merry Christmas
I enjoy all your videos and I am very happy to see you and your videos
