    Hello people! In this film we make the cast iron nut housing for the bronze lead nut manufactured earlier on. I hope that you enjoy it.

    Nice machine work there Carl, I love working with cast Iron, but messy it is. I will be following the rest of this mill repair.

    Very nice job Carl , the project is progressing extremely well. Having a clean and organised workplace is something to be proud of once finished , unfortunately the hardest part is actually starting. 🤔🤔 take care.

      Thank you Paul, I really appreciate you watching and commenting. Project is moving forward slowly but surely. I am glad to say that as I write this the workshop has been officially declared free from all cast iron swarf contamination!

    Nice work Carl. I'm looking forward to the holes being drilled so it can all go together. Getting close to the end product now!

      Thank you Tony. I'm just doing some work at the moment to modify an adapter plate so I can get a chuck on my rotary table. Yes I'm looking forward to it too. I can then get on with the next broken or shabby bit that needs attention! Thanks a lot for the support, it means a lot!

    All tho I have the same lathe as you I can only wish to achieve the same level of quality you keep producing.
    Keep up the great content.

      I get something right every once in a while so it keeps me keen to improve and learn.
      Looking forward to the next part in this series of videos.

    Great looking job Carl, nice healthy cuts, hope you've managed to eradicate the smell that permanates everywhere?
    Thanks for sharing.

      Thank you my friend. I have managed to get rid of the smell but I will be clearing up chips and graphite for some time. Almost stripping the lathe down to ensure I get all of the debris out. It is worth looking after it though. It cuts like a champ. It may be the smallest machine in the M series that Harrison made but it is highly capable. Thank you very much for watching and commenting, always appreciated.

    There are a few times when I've thought a high speed spindle to attach to the cross slide would be very handy, this being one of them, stick an end mill in and cut a circular groove in then part off a donut. Not quite as good as the rotabroach but still probably quicker and slightly less wasteful than just converting the entire thing to swarf!

    • @carlwilson1772
      @carlwilson1772  Год назад

      Yes I agree with that statement wholeheartedly.

    I really enjoyed watching you make this. I'm looking forward to seeing the PCD go in.

    Well done Carl, you've made a proper job of that, it looks great. One thing I'm curious about though, at the 4:59 mark, you show you about to turn the bottom face, I noticed you have your tool mounted at an angle - what was the reason for that? To get the carbide insert to interface at the correct angle? All the best, Jason

    • @carlwilson1772
      @carlwilson1772  Год назад +1

      Thanks Jason. I angled the tool like that because I wanted a bevel at the edge of the recess, and angling the tool gave me that. Thank you very much for watching and for commenting, it is very much appreciated.

    That looks spot on Carl, ant that cc iron turns really well, but as you say, messy! I have done my fair share of car discs drums and flywheels so i know what it is like’ Other than “As original” is there any reason you went with cc iron as opposed to steel or even a weldment, i can imagine it was not a cheap lump of material, although it did turn very easily and was free from defects. Superb job and a great watch!

    • @carlwilson1772
      @carlwilson1772  Год назад +1

      Thank you very much Phil, I really appreciate your comments and you taking the time to watch. I used cast iron because it has a very large vibration damping coefficient. That is the primary reason it is used in machine tool manufacture. The damping comes from the inclusion of the free graphite in the material's matrix. As this nut housing is one of the components supporting the table of the Mill, I didn't want to alter the vibration damping dynamics of the machine by introducing another material. Thanks again for your interest my friend.

    To be totally honest I wouldn't have bothered with the taper and would have made it parallel. The only reason for the taper would have been because it was a cast part and hence needed a taper to release from the mould.

    • @carlwilson1772
      @carlwilson1772  Год назад

      Yes of course you are absolutely right. I did consider not having the taper. And if you look at Harrison Mills, there is a lot of variation in that particular part. But I decided just to make it look like the original as best I could. Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and comment. I do appreciate it.
