My grandfather was a machinist, but unfortunately I never got to see him work. I love watching this stuff and really enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing!
A lot of this job would have been so much easier on a mill, this I am sure you know. Never the less you stuck at it, got the job done in less than optimal conditions. For this you deserve an A+ and a new sub. GREAT JOB!
Yes, do get a mill. I bought a used Jet 9x49. Now I have two machines I'm not very good with. That and I now have to buy more tooling. Some of the Chinese stuff is OK some not. Boring head OK, brazed bars not!
Beautiful work mate. I like how you are not and over confident “look how awesome I am” kinda fella but you have the confidence to have a go... and when you do, it’s give us less experienced blokes the confidence to have a go also. No I don’t have the confidence or experience to tackle the complexity of the jobs you do .... yet... but I’m gaining knowledge and confidence through watching your videos. Keep them coming. Big fan !! 👍
I appreciate the kind words. I'm on a little bit of a hiatus of making videos, as I'm building our new house. However, I still have all of the machines and will be back into sharing my machining journey.
What do I think.....I'll tell you...10/10, please keep those vids coming, you inspire me and I am sure you inspire others. Thankyou for taking the time to edit and post, they are very much appreciated. Regards....Rich, UK.
Amazing work brother! Every time I look up something to try out on my little junk lathe, your videos come up and give me hope. lol. Thanks again for sharing this.
I think you made a very good job. I just got my first lathe ( Myford ML7) and I’ve a hell of a lot to learn. I’m watching turning videos like they are going out of fashion.
Great job. Never hurts to try and make a part to fit your machines and your own needs don't let others tell you it's not right every one has there own idea on how it's done. Thank you for sharing. G W
Hi from the UK. I have a similar toolpost, which I am trying to fit to my Warco WM180. I had to turn the centre pin down from M24 to M10. I have a similar spigot on the compound slide to your lathe, but a little smaller. I needed to drill or bore the toolpost body 18mm x 8 mm deep. Easy Job? No way. The toolpost body is so hard, that even carbide cutters refuse to cut. My current solution is the make a large 75mm washer, with an 18mm hole. This is placed below the toolpost body. However, I'm yet to see if I need to remove anything off the bottom the tool holders. Hopefully. Fingers x'ed the tool holder will not be hardened. Wish me luck.
excellent solution. I also like the quick change posts, which possibly are easier to make, they use the top cone going into the central conical matching hole, the dovetail is cut in the middle, and as you push the cone down with the top handle+ plate, it spreads the dovetail. I think it might be even more rigid and strong. I'm waiting for my 1st ever lathe, and I will try to make the cams by drilling out of center holes, well I don;t fully understand it yet but I will soon. to be honest I don't fully understand how cams work. are the holes elliptical or perfect circles out of center? very nice video!
never be afraid to start a project, starting is always the hardest part. and just remember no matter how bad you screw up there is ALWAYS a way to fix it.
good job man ! just remember mistakes are lessons . and i have learned plenty. i did something like this but i put a smaller tool post on a 12" atlas my project was considerably simpler but id rather have a bigger tool post.
It wasn't clear in the video what the min parting diameter was but if it was less than .5" you could have parted off by drilling though. It's a pretty neat trick to keep in your toolbox, comes in handy when you're between a rock and a hard place, and also saves work. Great video, thanks for posting!
from what you show on the video it is really well done. sorry to hear your mill isnt up and running at the moment but i enjoyed the vid and i hope you make more. ps. i will reccomend your channel
I bought my QCTP from Little Machine Shop as part of a set of useful tools for the mini lathe. When I saw a cheaper QCTP on eBay for the mini lathe I bought it, thinking I could adapt either my Grizzly Micro Lathe or my wood lathe for it. Since my back injury, those projects are still waiting in line, but any ideas on how to do it would be appreciated.
I have a similar piston style quick change tool post. I was curious as to how these were assembled, now I know which should make it easier to fit to my lathe that like the Myford uses a single central stud rather than the T slot the new tool post is set up for. Thank you.
Greetings from the UK, good work fella, just subscribed as I hope to learn more. I have a Myford ML7 and am always interested to see how other owners modify and generally tune up their machines. Bernie
Man I think you did a good job, subscribed !! . You could probably get away with putting an O-ring at the bottom of the handle and just say that it's "waterproofing" !! I also like the two-tone look of the tool post holder and the handle I'm glad you left the end silver on the handle. But definitely a good job man I can't wait till I get my first lathe.
+nathanael jones Haha, waterproofing! Two 👍👍 on the sub. Trust me the machinist hobby is a seriously fun rabbit hole of non-stop learning. Thanks for watching.
If you don't have the tooling for a counterbore on that handle, i'd bet that milling or filing a flat for the handle to seat on would be a pretty good improvement. You'd also take some of the strain of turning the handle off the stud
Nice machine work. Would have been nice if you found a wedge type QCTP, but you work with what you have. I am sure that after you did all this, you thought of different ways to approach each issue. But if it works, use it. The only draw back that I see is, you will have to shorten every new tool holder you acquire for it now.
Thanks for the comment. Yes, I bought six new tool holders and spent a couple evenings shortening them up. Having the QCTP has been such a drastic improvement to setup time.
If it were me I think I'd spot face the angled area with maybe an end mill and chamfer the first female thread so the end of the handle seats down against the part. It's only a matter of time until the male thread breaks. Seating the end of the handle against the part will prevent the much weaker threaded area from taking the bending stesses.
Well I guess I've learned what little I do know by making some of the mistakes you just haven't got to yet. That's the only reason I know that thread won't take much before breaking. 3 - 31/2 threads in length will normally be as strong as the parent metal and the metal should fail before the threads would. That's in tension though. Shear and bending loads are a lot different.
+Makin Sumthin From Nuthin Yup, worked like a charm for quite a while. But now there is something new in the shop now. My Instagram has more details on that.
Just one question Dose a home shop/lathe really need an expensive quick change tool post? I have not used mine alot or much but i don't see the need for it, as I always say "I have more time then money"...
There are two systems of QCTP the ones who push the holder away from main body and the ones that get the holder towards the main body (e. g. Multifix) I prefer this system because of higher rigidity on the other system all forces push on the one stud behind the holder on this one point it can be as massiv as it wants i prefer the holder towards the main body... But nice work done....
Neat vid, very informative and I enjoyed it a lot :) Did you know you can do a small amount of milling jobs on a lathe by sticking a collet in the headstock to hold endmills. The workpiece can then be clamped to the the cross slide using a tool holder or purpose made jig that fits the tool post. Stay awesome and keep those chips flyin' ;)
Thanks for watching. Yup, I've tried it a few times but found that the lathe was just not stout enough to take any real cuts. I've only used it with the milling attachment, which introduced too much bounce on the cut. Still, it is great if that's all you've got.
WrenagadeWorkshop for a job with no real dimensions like milling off those blocks I'm a huge fan of belt grinders. simple jig on the guide of a belt table and you can get nice and flat fast
What material is this? I'm always struggling to improve surface finish with my HSS, and the only time I come close to that glossy finish is with a brand new carbide insert cutting carbon steel
+Rob Mckennie The original tool post block is unknown by me. It's an import AXA tool post. The barrel and cam were 12L14, I think. It has been so long since I ordered it from speedymetals.com
Interesting video. I liked your video, in which you worked with copper. Did you only made this one video with this material? I'd like to see more of that
+Christian Ueckert Yeah, so far that is the only copper piece. I know I will do more. If you have anything you might like seeing made let me know. I like trying new stuff.
ThunderDog a simple steam engine or a Heronsball (also Äolsball, Aeolipile or Äolipile called ) is very interesting and maybe possible to make. Greetings from Germany...
brill again mate, now, how about you make another handle with the threaded nut for the top of the post so you don't have to keep reaching for the spanner when adjusting the angle of the post,the one that locks it down when you've turned it around? check out the way doubleboost uses his lathe toolpost in some of his older vids,cant remember if he has the same set up on his new lathe.
I made a handle for locking the tool post. Much quicker to use than the wrench & nut system. I'm just learning to machine metal. Struggled with turning threads until I started turning from the chuck towards the tailstock, much safer.
Parting off with center in tailstock will surely break that parting tool when it cuts through. also you can get rid of that steady rest with one that has roller bearings.
Nice job! I bought a wm-210 in the spring. I've been having fun making my own parts and things but I'm really getting tired of shimming when I change the different cutters. My compound has a small boss on it. I have to decide on the OXA or the AXA, the bigger the better? Anyway I found this video very relevant. Thanks!
Please if you know of a lathe for sale like a SB 9A or C I would like to get one to work out of my little garage, thank you and have a good turning day..
if you measure the amount of force that the cam places on the t-nut you will find that it is not that great. hardening is not necessary, but it can't hurt if you want to do it.
hello sir very nice job.please send me its .dwg file so that i can make it in autocad then i will start to make this tool post for my personal use.i am a lathe machine oprater from india

Very good in all aspects ! I found that the handle from my original tool post worked on top to lock down the QCTP !
Sounds like ! Your Handle ! Was Quite Wonky ! Here !
I'm loving all your videos. A variety of excellent projects, and well filmed and explained. It's good stuff. Thanks.

Good job. Learnt a lot about QCTPs. Going to tackle this project myself.
I just got a smithy combo lathe the small one and im not sure what type of quick change tool post buy if the axa or bxa

Enjoyable video.
Not a criticism from me, ( you weren't happy) could you countersink the handle hole slightly to allow the space to disappear ?

Sweet job! I gotta ask: Would you be willing to part with a copy of the prints that you used on this project?
For What ! Reason !?? Then !
you said that material machined great, what material is it?

doest the cam have to be harden?
+Bigwingrider1800 Maybe, the import one was not. But, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be properly hardened. 😁 Thanks for watching.
if you measure the amount of force that the cam places on the t-nut you will find that it is not that great. hardening is not necessary, but it can't hurt if you want to do it.
Those gears, behind the lathe, are out of a motorcycle gearbox?
+Vaios Kaliakoudas Nope, they are the Myford gears.
+ThunderDog Would these gears fit and work in a custom built of course, motorcycle gearbox?
+Vaios Kaliakoudas No.
MyfordCycle? 🤔
+Makin Sumthin From Nuthin Not exactly, but if you custom machine a shell and the shaft to fit the gears into, it'd be great
