Brilliant video…well done..one question….one idea.. Question…what holds the tool holder to the body?…you just pushed it in…what stops it turning? Idea…instead of using an Allen key for the adjustment, I think a knurled thumbscrew could be used Many thanks…
Thanks for putting out this great video Paul. I will use it as a guide during my build. I bought a handful of their kits a couple months ago and have been enjoying working my way through them. As I was sitting down to start this build, I fired up your video and immediately discovered that my order was missing that bag of parts with the Oilite bushings and other assorted hardware. :( I reached out to them (on Friday evening (after closing hours) - and hope to hear from them tomorrow AM. If their reputation is accurate, I am sure they will take care of me. I really wish they would use decimal units in their diagrams. I don't have them memorized, so I have to break out the calculator for every measurement. I hate to mark up these beautiful schematics with my terrible handwriting. - But, that's my Only complaint!
Many thanks! I usually take pictures of the plans, replace all of the measurements with metric, then print them out. Fair bit of work, but helps to avoid mistakes 👍
@@PaulsGarageProjects Just finished building mine the other day. Boy those instructions leave a lot to the imagination. If I was going to do it again I might do some things differently, but it works, and its done. time to move onto the next project.
Is there a reason you decided on using a deburring tool on that first part after reaming that first hole? I mean, you were already set up in the lathe, why not just turn a light chamfer instead?

Many thanks! There's a set screw that keeps the tool holder in place. That's a good point - a knurled thumbscrew would be easier and quicker to use.
Just started this kit myself. I'm dreading that split bore and dovetails on my tiny mill! Great work.
Thanks! This kit was certainly a bit more involved than I was expecting. The split bore wasn't too bad, but the dovetails took ages on my mill.
just earlier I was sketching out a sphere cutting attachment for hair clippers, to get a perfectly orbular hairdo
Seems like the Hemingway kits are addictive. Nice work, Paul!

Turning a sphere is tricky AF. Anything that can help!
Genio totaaaal...!!!!♥♥♥🙌

Good point. Didn't really put much thought into it, just wanted to break the edge 👍
Merci !!!
Are any plans available for this ?
There are plans available, but I think you have to buy the kit to get them. If you got in touch with Hemingway Kits, they may sell them separately.
@@PaulsGarageProjects Thank you
Found it. Thank you
You mean to tell me the first test wasn't to make a metal ball to replace the plastic one that came with the kit 😅
It did cross my mind, but with the material I had on hand it would've turned out comically small!
