Ray el rode to doomsky. If I personally designed a lathe the turret tool mount would definately be beneath the work in between the cast iron base and slideways and this would allow a better flow of the swaf, straight down onto the swarf catching tray, vertically mounting the cutter to see the progess in front of tool from in front of the machine unlike the title picture where the tool is mounted horizontally and obscured by the toolpost and toolholder as too many people have been pulled into the work from their clothes being caught on the spinning material and have been machined themselves to a very course tolerance, lmao -1 unnecassary death is too many as obviously the operator must have been keeping an eye on the cutting action/swarf/surface finnish quality and the flowing off of coolant etc....

Where would you put a steady/follower rest if the cutter was below the workpiece? The underside of the work is where the weight of it is supported, so any work-holding devices need to transfer the weight to the frame. Plus changing tools from underneath the work and the machine would be impractical and cumbersome. Lathes are designed as they are for good reason and despite your good intentions, the modern slanted bedway CNC lathes are about as good as it's going to get for swarf/waste removal and safety.
No, it wasn’t the WTO. That’s actually been more beneficial to us than to anyone else. It was the Bush recession that’s caused our problems. But we’re still the second biggest manufacturer and exporter. With China beginning to have major problems, we may yet regain the number one slot someday.
@@miles2378 right, couldn't have anything to do with each of the last 6 presidents all supporting our WTO agreements, union demands, OSHA requirements, highest corporate taxes in the world, highest healthcare costs in the world, onerous environmental regs, etc.
The lathe and mill are so accurate that no protective equipment - such as glasses - are required.
Never heard that one
@@SuperJonatan100 I'm making a joke. It's shocking by today's standards
Safety is the #1 priority in any job, particularly machine shops.
@@joelima3967 100% agree which is why this was actually a comedic reaction to seeing no safety gear at all.
@@PhilipLeitch Woosh…
What a fascinating time capsule.
I guess safety wasn’t an issue in the old days.
The safety cult had not yet been established.

No necklaces, ties, long hair, rings, gloves, long sleeves. Machine technology safety 101.
Garbage

The 812 is cooler

TY Learn Still From This Too A.I. Is Here From This We Lost Control Corp Gov A.I. Greed Drives ALL
so much has changed from then. America is falling and I'm not sure it will ever regain the power it once had...
the russian machinists it was George "W" Bush who abdicated ure rights in the WTO which caused our loss of manufacturing.
the russian machinists step by step it is the life...!
