Hi, Thanks for the sub, I am in the process of trying to sell my home to move to better premisses. Until then, my content will be a bit sparse, sorry. Cheers
Nice one Paul !!! Good result there. Last time I tried that I had issues. Think the drums had been cooked a few times and couldn't get a finish, bit of a badgers bottom! Bit of hemorrhoid cloth sorted it though😊 Love to Mrs. Shed Dweller and to your self Neil
@@Thesheddweller Might be a while Paul. Can't stand or walk for more than a few minutes. Just waiting on surgery. The drugs I'm taking for CH damaged my pancreas so I'm trying to manage diabetes as well. Be back in there one day though 😊😊😊
Hi. Yes the face plate can be use but, not in this case. The face plate has an even number of slots and the hub has an uneven number of stud mountings. The mandrel was the second option, in the video I would have used the the four jaw chuck as first choice but, I explained why that couldn't be used. Cheers
Hi, I couldn't taper the mandrel because the bearings are parallel and they have to be set under a certain amount of preload inward toward the centre of the bearing unit. A tapered mandrill would have been fine if the bearings weren't there but, I wasn't prepared to take them out. Cheers.
Hi, we've not sold our home yet, local and national politics, have put a stop to many house sales. looks like i may have to stay put for a while. cheers.
@@ThesheddwellerWe thought we had found the ideal downsize house for us, offer accepted and everything. But planning wouldn't let me demolish the old concrete garage 18x26ft and build a new concrete one 22x40ft. Plenty of room, mostly hidden by trees, it had to be built in natural York stone with a slate tiled roof and no bigger than the old one. We pulled out of the sale.
@@billdoodson4232 good job you found out before you completed. there is always the concrete slab with a sectional shed on top so long as it remains classed as a remove-able shed. etc etc.
@@Thesheddweller lol, yeah I forgot.you don't have those where you live. I've got a set of 13inch drums I need to do now, but there is no way I'm pulling the gap bed section out of my lathe. Too much work and I hate cleaning up cast iron.

@@Thesheddweller Thanks for the update. I'll leave the porch light on so no worries. May your next "shed" be lined with gold..
Excelent work Paul, only way to go with that design of brake drum! Enjoyed watching!

@@yenoh243 hi thanks, cheers
Muito bom o trabalho!
Thank you, cheers
Great Success! That worked fantastic, good job sir! Are you moved into the new workshop?
@@captainraypaul4919 no. I haven’t even sold yet. Never mind.
Wouldn't it have been possible to just use the wheel mounting flange bolted to your faceplate?
Hi. Yes the face plate can be use but, not in this case. The face plate has an even number of slots and the hub has an uneven number of stud mountings. The mandrel was the second option, in the video I would have used the the four jaw chuck as first choice but, I explained why that couldn't be used. Cheers
interesting
thank you, cheers
hello, mr hopewell, i was wondering, how does the epoxy hold on your lathe bed ?
cheers
ben.
when it was first pressed into action and well oiled, it left a dirty residue but it has settled down quite nicely thank you. cheers.
why didn't you just taper the mandrel?
Hi, I couldn't taper the mandrel because the bearings are parallel and they have to be set under a certain amount of preload inward toward the centre of the bearing unit. A tapered mandrill would have been fine if the bearings weren't there but, I wasn't prepared to take them out. Cheers.

Great job, but you do know oriellys will turn these for 20bucks? I'd rather pay the money than clean sandy cast iron off my lathe.
20 bucks and a further 100 for postage. It was something to do and I got mucky in the process. all part of the fun I guess. cheers
