Making a Custom Gear
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 янв 2022
- In this video I'm going to make a custom gear for my lathe. This special gear is needed to have additional feed rates to turn threads on the lathe, especially 26tpi. My lathe can cut a ton of different pitches, but not 26tpi. To cut a thread with 26tpi you'd need so called „special accessories“, which is just a special gear with 46 teeth and 52 teeth to replace the standard gear with 21 teeth and 28 teeth. So I decided to make my own. As I don't have any gear cutting milling tools I decided to make the special gear with two welded together normed stock gears. I was able to order them online for $25 each. After welding them together I made the bore to the proper size, turned three grooves and cut a keyway on the arbor press with a 5mm keyway broach. It all worked out as planed.
I hope you like my work and the video.

Thanks for the green "eyeshade" while welding - I know I won't get "arc-eye" from a video, but it does make it more comfortable to watch. As always, attention to the little things make your channel stand out above everyone else.
Absolutely agree. I really appreciate it too, my eyes are super sensitive to bright light and when people start welding unfiltered in videos, it's very unpleasant. So a warning or a "filter" like here, is much appreciated!
I thought it was an accessory to his camera to prevent burnout and damage to his image sensor.
Could you please show how the auto darkening filter is done. Many thanks
Good weld filming pratice. That way we can see the work, and not just a blow out white picture and a few sparks nearby
i also meant to say that for awhile now! i mostly watch these at night because the process is extremely comforting, and the welding parts always used to be my least favourite haha - thanks a lot to my mechanics for being so considerate ❤️
I've been a professional draftsman for over 18 years now, and have called out run-out specs in GD&T per engineer's direction. Until now I have never seen that actually managed from a machinist's standpoint. Just so used to that being validated by the QE in the metrology labs. Love ALL of your videos by the way! Cheers from the US!
i've never seen so much knowledge, skills and precision anywhere else, for sure
After missing one step (not truing up the second gear) I'm not so sure that finished product would have passed QC.
It's going to make for a pretty noisy set of change gears.
@@uralmash07 Sure :)
Because there is run out on the second gear he cut, the teeth won't be be perpendicular to the axis of the shaft so for some portion of each rotation the gear won't mesh properly which will increase the backlash in the gear set. It will be noisy to begin with but also they will wear unevenly, getting worse over time.
I've worked with guys like you over fifty years, mechanic, machinist, welder, electronics tech, blacksmith. Good drawings make it simple to do a good job, and good communication makes for quality work. I did electronics in the Marines, and dealt with high end metrology there, as well as in metal. I always liked to have the engineers and draftsmen in the shop, it helps all see the full process, the corners that have to be got around. Semper Fi, John McClain
@@BloopTube I've seen most machining processes in my career, but not for run-out. I'm not a machinist so I don't get out to the machine shop very much to see everything the machinist does to make the part.
Some places I've worked at the tooling shop isn't even on site.
Grounding through the vise screw is a great way to either get poor welds because of the grease on the screw preventing a good connection or to ruin a screw or nut due to secondary arcing.. Fine if it's a $20 Chinese vise, but a bad thing on an expensive or antique vise.. If you are welding in a vise vs a fixture, clamp to the body or jaw of vise. Our shop vise actually had a tab on the side of the body for a grounding clamp.
Need to change that
@@mymechanicsinsights It's really great seeing how well you take constructive criticism! You seriously are the best Mechanist RUclipsr out there. Cheers from Germany!
i was going to say the same exact thing, ive done this too welding small tabs and stuff and finding out it was grounding issues, after clamping it to the table or piece it was nice coin stacks
@That was my thought as well. As soon as I saw and heard the arc I knew it wasn’t grounded properly. Also while I knew about the issues with secondary arcing in the screw/nut I hadn’t thought about the grease being an issue so thanks for increasing my knowledge.
There were a bunch of satellites in orbit in the 2010s whose gyroscope wheels failed prematurely. The first one was unusual, but when more and more happened the odds of it being random bad luck were basically zero.
Turns out that the metal bearings were repeatedly exposed to several megavolts of static charge (it's not really possible to ground anything in orbit), and over time the micro-arcing caused tiny fragments to flake off inside the bearing housing, eventually leading to total seizure.
Newer satellites all use non-metallic bearings.
6:01 That Dremel speaks German, it goes up to every sharp edge and goes
"NEIN NEINE NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN"
All I can think to say is "man I wish you made more videos" [on either channel]. Well done.
More to come :-)
It's always a pleasure to watch you make something. For these few minutes, the world seems sane!
Thank you very much, I really do appreciate it :-)
I will second that statement 😁
The welding mask screen effect is a really neat idea that I don't think I have seen anyone else on RUclips do before. I like it. I can genuinely see some people having issue with the arc being too bright on some of these new really bright displays.
I've heard people could get epileptic problems from flashing lights.
Cutting Edge Engineering Australia do it too (and if you like my mechanics, it's worth checking them out).
@@rebmcr Agree, plus you’ll stay just for the dog
@@MrSaul04 Yeah I'm particularly fond of both dogs, and doing things methodically. It's the perfect combo!
@@mymechanicsinsights it's a very small % of people, but it is a real thing.
Who else expected you to mill the gears out of a blank? :D But anyway a nice video!
I guess that is the expertise of Chris from clickspring
@@ThefalleStrat we can make gears, though it isn't often worth the time it takes.
Me. "I make a new one" :(
I was surprised he did not make them, not disappointed, just surprised.
I would if I had the correct milling tool ;-)
Aaah. You DID allign the Texts with each other! And the keyway! My satisfaction is complete! Kudos!
Had to make it ;-)
After watching your videos for past year or so, I was completely prepared to see you meticulously machine all the teeth on these gears. Still never a disappointment. Keep up the great content!
It is so satisfying seeing your projects. Thanks, MM, for all that you share. You just proved the old saw that a lathe can build a lathe. 🤣 Can't wait for the next one.
Such precision! I enjoy seeing a perfectionist's work.
only few in the world can do this ..
this is awesome
I love how you make custom parts for your tools, to do more custom restorations! Especially at the end where you demo it, and all the things you're doing come together!
It is always fascinating to me to see a machine used to make a part for itself. using a lathe to make a part for that lathe is beautiful in a way.
Very true!
Love that arbor press. It is visual proof of how precise and meticulous your work is.
When I first saw the two gears I was hoping to see your first attempt at friction welding :( Still amazing work as usual! Looking forward to the next restoration vid
Can you friction weld with a regular lathe or do you need something heftier?
@@volbla I’ve seen it done with a regular lathe but not with anything of this size.
@@volbla I remember seeing MM planning to equip his lathe with a brake for the spindle. Every friction welding video I saw had the lathe spindle braking instantly once the welding was done.
Als zerspanungsmechaniker geht einem da das Herz auf 💕
I'm so in awe of your work and so many of your skills that, as an experienced welder myself, it's oddly comforting to see your less-than-pretty welds in between all the other amazing things you do.
It doesn't matter when I turn them down anyway right? ;-)
@@mymechanicsinsights I too enjoy the fact that you weld about as well as I do, but if we get better at it, it would take less time, use less resources, and require less material removal for clean-up.
Wow! I really like to watch you work. It's always fun. You can do ANYTHING!
I love watching you create such neat things
You made me understand thoroughly the principle of a gearbox. "Spinning levers" as they call them. I have worked as a machine technician for a few years and until now that I see your video I completely understand the concept. Your video was helpful beyond its intents.
Danke vielmals!
Precision and quality your work is always incredible.. never am I disappointed watching your videos😎
I watch a few other “restoration type” channels but you set the standard! Most of the others now seem a little crude by comparison. I really enjoy your work! Thank you!!
Thank you very much, I really do appreciate it :-)
I'm not a mechanist so I had no idea that you could actually use what looks like a thick metal comb to cut a groove. This is ingenious!
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
A liberal drowning of oil make's broaching so much smoother and satisfying. Great video 👍
Couldn't agree more! Just used it dry to make it better visible on camera
Your craftsmanship never ceases to amaze me.
It is beautiful to watch a skilled worker create something; they make it look effortless! Excellent video dude! Keep up this great content!
Beautiful work sir.
I'm looking forward to seeing more videos from you this year 👍👍
Take care
mad respect for the amount of work and skill you put into these videos. thanks.
Glad to hear that, thank you very much
Well done, mate, and your way of making the keyway is rather impressive! Cheers.
I wonder if all these people telling you all the mistakes you made have
ever made anything as good as what you created? I doubt it!
Keep up the great work mam!
Agree!
Not all so called mistakes are even mistakes. Just because something isn't shown in a video, doesn't mean it hasn't been done.
I always think, how do you make being SO precise look so easy? The math in my head trying to make sure everything lines up where you want it is mind boggling. Great job.
Thank you very much :-)
Beautiful work👍
This was a fun diversion from your usual content, and it's always cool when previous projects make cameo appearances.
Thanks a lot for watching :-)
Is it because of you that the Rolex watch keep getting more and more valuable? 😄precision and innovation running in the bloodline! Thumbs way up!
Thanks a lot for watching :-)
Your welding sequences are very cool. Another very nice video!
Enthralling and informative as ever dude. Your work is a joy to watch. Thank you. 😎
Thank you very much :-)
I love that arbor press! I think I’ve watched that video 5 times already and I’m about to watch it again now!
I really enjoyed this video aswell👌🏻
I love it too :-)
Another masterpiece from My Mechanics. Your skills are un-matched on RUclips. Only thing missing is a full "shop-tour" video including any display you might have of previous projects. Cant wait for your next video!
Damn. So simply so smart. So good to watch.
looks great! can't wait for whatever you do next!
Hello from St.Petersburg!
A real hi level master can easily improve even his old lathe. ☝
Thank you very much :-)
Well done!
Formidable work as always!
Superb engineering as usual 👍
Its a great job....congrats!
Love your work!
Wish i had this guys knowledge and skill
You can do it!
Watching you work is like meditation for me. I dont really understand what you are doing so I can switch my brain off and enjoy watching the things the magic metal man makes!
Thank you very much
Very great job. Appreciations!
I didn't understand at first how the broach works, had to google another video and only then I realized. Your works and videos are amazing, but I think sometimes there are parts that you cut off to reduce the lenght of the video, and some of us (like me) who don't have so much knowledge but still enjoy to watch you, miss how things works. It's just a little and positive criticism, just to help us learn and enjoy all what you do to achieve the results that we love. Cheers!
Man, I wish I could go there and learn from you the craftsmanship. Hailings from Mexico!
Really a great idea to have at least 6 different steps interchangeable immediately, very good, I think I will exploit your idea
I was literally just watching this channel bc I was waiting for something new. Quick welding tip: the speed should be to where it sounds like frying bacon or eggs and should have a steady sound.
I’ve seen this man weld in previous videos. I believe his issue was the material of the gears.
@@dougoliver2342 still might’ve been the speed bc the inconsistent sound
But if it smells like bacon, you're doing something horribly wrong.
Good job my friend
Beautiful. Appreciate the content, no matter what the frequency or duration of the videos is.
Thanks for your support :-)
Really impressive! Great job!
Many thanks :-)
I’m amazed seeing how you squeezed that one piece in there with the manual press. Like goddamn.
Been an automotive technician for many years, had no idea how the keyway was cut! Awesome video
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
Nice! Congratulations!
Thank you
Produced a gear to produce more gears. Incredible ingenuity!
Awesome job !
Thanks!
wow nice job bro you are a smart man ❤
Very cool. I just love this channel
i did not understand what it was for at first, but i see shiny metal with precision craftsmanship, i watch and i hit like button. very simple. :)
Thank you
Looking forward to your next video
Great job love watching your work whether it's restoration or machine work keep up the great work mate I cant wait for the next one cheers from Australia 👍🦘🇦🇺
Thanks, will do!
beautiful actually. wow.
I don't understand it, but I still love it! Definitely one of my favorite channels on RUclips
Thanks a lot for beeing here :-)
I had to re-watch the keyway broach part. That was wild.
Glad you like it :-)
Beautiful
I don't know how to precisely describe it, but your great machinists on the web (you, ToT, Abom79, Stefan, Peter from Edge Precision) or other awesome maker such as Made in Poland have introduced a new mindset to my life. That is the mindset of if you don't have something then find a way to build it and you can freaking build anything, not scrap-ly but precisely and you can still take the pride in that homebrew thingie. Don't know why but it enlarged my horizon a lot, like a loooooot :)))
Nice to hear that, thank you very much :-)
I find your videos fascinating, and this one was no exception. I can’t wait to see your next creation, thanks for sharing your time and skills with the rest of the world!
I love how you used the lathe to make a part or the lathe.
Très beau travail 🤯
Another tool for the master craftsman to make more perfect his creations!
Thanks a lot
Wow. Incredible. Thx for the precise work u do. Great fun.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
I'd watch this guy sweep his shop. Every video is awesome to watch!
Thanks for your support :-)
Well done. Cheers man 👍
Thanks
Hi sir i am your big fann!!!! I loves to watch your videos!!
Brilliant.
Excellent work, thanks.
Many thanks :-)
Fine work! That broach would have enjoyed a bit of lubrication i guess, but it went through so no worries.
I know, haven't applied oil to make it better visible on the video.
Good job!
Thanks!
You are simply amazing! Love your videos as they are mesmerizing… 😀
Thank you very much
Love your work! Give us more, more, more! 😉
Very nicely filmed too.
Nice creation!
Thanks
Nicely done! ✅
Thanks :-)
Very nicely made!
Thanks a lot
Very impressive !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you :-)
this is fantastic!!!
I’ve been watching your highly skilled work for awhile now, and I have to say the same amount of perfection is put into your video production. Simply a pleasure to admire both art forms.
Do you keep a list of each projects actual time in hours it takes to restore or make the items you build? If so would love to see it in each video description. Thank you again.
I like your work
Thanks a lot
I like the auto darkening lens on the camera! It would be even better with a close up of the weld puddle.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
Video request. You’re the only guy I trust to do this request correctly. We need to know which method to use to eliminate rust and which conditions to use the method in. Can you do that?
I didn't understand anything here... but thanks for sharing.
I love your videos and amazing work.
Many thanks :-)
