    With no doubt, this video is exactly why I love this channel.
    It pisses me off that your channel has such a small subscriber base. I subscribed before you had 3 thousand. I have been watching for almost 3 years.,,,,
    I see you bending over backward to give us great camera angles & the minute details.
    I want youtube to get off their ass & put your channel up front.
    No matter what Max, I want to say thank you. I have learned so much watching you.
    I really wish I could stand around a camp fire & drink a cold beer with you. 👍
    Cheers my friend.

    Nice job mate. When I was in the industry I worked as a maintenance fitter but sometimes I would not use a lathe or milling machine for some time and one day they wanted a new pinion shaft made and I hadn't cut a gear since I was an apprentice and I completely forgot about how to do it ! It took me about 3 hours to machine the shaft and around 10 hours to cut the gears lol. I spent most of the time reading books about it.

    I have a Precision Matthews lathe that looks remarkably similar to yours (probably the same Chinese foundry) and I have adopted your technique of parting off in reverse with the parting tool upside down in the tool holder with great success. Gravity seems to drop the chip curl out of the cut rather than having it curl up on top of the cutter and weld into the cut. There's no problems with the part trying to climb up over the cutter too. Great trip!

    Yours I am guessing is 1977
    The rapid travel on the saddle will put a lot more wear on the rack and pinion which are prone to dirt and chips.
    Wondering if a Bronze sacrificial pinion might be the way to go, hate to have to replace the rack.

      Not sure what year that edition was printed . It was my Late Fathers . I wonder if the new ones are all metric , if so i might get a newer one .

    I have seen you in the past grind parts that you have heat treated to get them to the correct size. I am curious how you handle the gear teeth. I ask because I hope to be getting a gear made for my horizontal mill's vertical head, but it won't be heat treated. If it was heat treated, would it have to be ground to shape or what's the typical process?

    • @swanvalleymachineshop
      @swanvalleymachineshop  Год назад +1

      The gear will be made to size before heat treatment . Only the bearing journals will be machined after & fingers crossed it will stay reasonably straight after heat treatment . The gear can be cleaned up with a wire buff & scotch bright . 👍

  • @melgross
    @melgross Год назад +1

    It’s interesting that on a lot of British stuff, you find metric and inch (being I’m from the USA I don’t say Imperial) mixed on parts all the time. I’ve found shafts that are metric with inch screws, as well as a lot of other equipment and parts. I find it annoying. I’d much rather have it one way or the other. I wonder why that, Chinese I think, lathe would have these parts in inch. Possibly for a mainly inch oriented market?
    As far as that shaft. It looks like a ball screw. I would expect that to be hardened, at least the surface, yet it didn’t look that way when you were working it.
    I also like that circular gear gauge. I’ve got the usual sets. This is nice.

    • @swanvalleymachineshop

  • @aceroadholder2185
    @aceroadholder2185 Год назад +1

    When repairing machine tools, check very carefully the threads and gears used. For instance, my Taiwanese milling machine is metric.... except for the British Standard Whitworth fasteners used in several places. My Taiwanese lathe is all metric.... except for the Unified National threads used on all the control levers.
    Be wary of old machines, especially pre-WW2. Metric fasteners weren't standardized universally. Germany, France, and England each had their own standards. There are plenty of odd ball imperial threads to keep an eye out for, especially pre-WW1.

Up to now it was on my long range radar (general awareness) but not so relevant, but since I've got the mill now it's only a matter of time before I want to cut a gear or two. I'm going to do an update on the solar late/end August. I'm very pleased with it but it's really taken until July (3 months) for it to settle down with one event or another affecting output. I've just about got to a point where I can get some confidence in the payback calculation. With a battery there are just so many variables in play, it's hard to model theoretically on a spreadsheet.
