How are you attaching the lathe dog to the plate in order to drive it? The ones that I've seen have a crook in them to slip into a slot on the plate. If you are just relying on the center point to drive the piece, the lathe dog serves no purpose...
I was wondering the same thing. I’ve seen dogs with the bent tail that is driven by a bolt or nut on the face plate or fits into a slot, as needed. Others are straight tailed, like he made here, and ride against a taller bolt. If you pause just at the beginning of 04:08 - just before the lathe spins up, you can see that is exactly what is happening. It’s quick and the bolt is black so it’s impossible to see when it’s moving. It would have helped if he had included a still or video showing the set up before powering on. I hope that helps.
Super cool! Is there a lot of vibration? If you move the "Dog" to the side with the filed point on the hole then the bolt and the dog will somewhat balance each other out.
Thanks Leif! For low-medium revolutions it works well. When I increase the speed I can notice that the distribution of the masses is not the best. I made a threaded hole on the opposite side to install a mass that compensates the vibrations, but I don't think I'll use the dog at high speeds.
@@AlessGonzalez Thanks for posting this video. I would have never even considered trying to make such a thing without you doing it first because all the ones I have seen are cast. Very inspiring!
very good video..thanks for your time
Muchas gracias Michel!
Muy buen trabajo de precisión!!
Nice job. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎

Well done. No need to buy one when you can make one.
what is the point of the music ?
genial..!! ahora tienes que hacer un contrapeso para que gire equilibrado. saludos..!!
Gracias Sergio! Efectivamente, para eso hice una roca en el lado opuesto. Un saludo!
@@AlessGonzalez genial.! en ocasiones también se suele sujetar al mismo plato. ;)
Buen trabajo. Un saludo.
Muchas gracias Francisco!

¿Alguien sabe si hay un grupo de face para usuarios de MINI TORNOS en Feceboook?. (fuera de éstos Masters, claro).
no, pero haz uno y yo con gusto entro, tengo 2 tornos
