That sewing machine has been putting in work like it gets paid by the hour. I swear one of these videos it's going to suddenly be a table saw. Good work by the way.
Me having to convert my tiny Chinese lathe to be crank operated because of noise restrictions in my new apartment. Thankfully watchmakers lathes exist.
For me the best part is going along for the ride. Seeing the things that didn’t work and working through that to get where you want to be. I have always learned more from the things that went wrong than I ever have when things went perfectly, and they never do!😬 Thank you for sharing the process.
You get the best craftsman and a stand up show at the same time. Amazing as always. I'm just glad you're not in the weapons industry. Just imagine what glamorous damage you could have done...
My first Uri vid was backward scissors. I was like, "What kind of hackney crap is this guy up to?" Boy, was I wrong. Uri, while a bit out there, is a true craftsman and I'm very glad he makes videos of his exploits. Thank you Uri!
I'm always impressed by your ability to build! You could always build a sound proofing box around the gears to reduce the noise, I've built quite a few around my shop and they were well worth it!
Maybe one can also think of a better mechanism to hold the grinding wheels. Once they're easier to replace the machine will become much more attractive to use.
I enjoy a lot more watching all the little problems that arise, while the idea goes from the mind to reality, than watching a guy making something flawlessly. Awesome video, subbed.
Uri you are a regular Carl Johansson. Look this man up. In 1896 he turned his wife's sewing machine into a lapping machine. He used it to invent what is known as gage blocks. With a set of these blocks you can make deferant stacks to any size you want from about 1/16 of a inch to over 15 inches. You can set them up to ten thousandths of a inch and be accurate to a couple millionths of a inch.
Hey dude! I was a hydrostatic rebuilder in another life and became a master at operating lapping equipment which function similar to your device there. With particles suspended in a liquid carrier fluid you can get some crazy fine surface finish. I never considered using that equipment for sharpening knives though. The resulting edges would have been crazy precise as far as flatness and angle orientation. Great video and you are some kind of cool cat!
The fact you're kinda dorky at building this machine and you're not all "oh I'm a genius at building machines so watch me flawlessly build a one of a kind masterpiece" like some youtubers makes this video all the better. This is truly a diy video whereby non-machine workers can try building too! Great video!
I absolutely love the way that you jump in and get to work and demonstrate your mastery over the materials. I tend to overthink these kinds of things. Had you considered using, perhaps, a right angle extension of the rope drive with a couple of idler-tensioner pulleys to drive the vertical spindle directly?
Great work you do Uri. I showed my daughter a trick I learned from you on transferring a design to stock using acetone and she thought that was amazing. Said it will save her all kinds of trouble. Thanks!
URI you always make me smile when you say things are delicious,,, You truly are a quality craftsmen I love your work thank you for sharing it with us....
Mr. Tuchman, I've been watching your videos almost from the first one. Your inventiveness and approach deserve a lot more subscribers; I hope you get them. You are a treasure.
Little bit late to this party, only now I came across this channel. Uri is just a star :) not only great builds, but also sense of humor, character. Well done!
Uri, i'm a big fan, but....HOW THE HELL?! How much time, how much energy it tooks to do a project like that! You're the crazy king of the "hand made". Much respect man!
Might I recommend something? I'm pretty sure the reason you're having dull spots on your blades is because the disk is only being supported in the center. I'd either suggest adding rollers (like casters or something) underneath near the outside edge, or replace the center rod with something more robust.
Disfruto mucho los videos de Uri Tuchman ver el entorno de su taller tan limpio y ordenado y minimalista yo veo a Uri Tuchman mas como un orfebre un artista un artesano un escultor que un simple tallerista
One thing that might help with control is to use the outside part of the wheel for hogging, and the inside of the wheel for finer work, since that part is moving slower.
I love your reaction to the blue lapping sheet, I had a similar reaction to 15000 grit sandpaper. Another awesome build. I think it's brilliant that you made your own cogs before conceding to modern technology. Keep making the amazing, thanks for sharing.
I got to use a professional modern version of such a device to prepare metallographic samples once. Yours seems great, the only big difference I would suggest checking out is the water system. The one I used had an electric pump with a lot of flow and guides all arround to prevent the water from splashing out. From my experience the water really helped with the work I had to to.
Impressive craftsmanship. Thanks for showing your learning process. I've been staring at one in my shop, thinking it was useful. Just not knowing what for. I doubt I put that much work in to mine. Lol
Haha, i bought a pedal driven sewing machine similar to that with the intention of building a sharpending system aswell. I was gonna have a vertical stone, but seeing your horizontal setup actually makes more sense. :)
URI...your showing and fumbling gave me good idea for more stability on turningstone... Make 2 plateau's that each have circular groove with ball baring gliding system. By giving pressure on the stone... there comes no force on the vertical driving spindle. And the point of pressure relative to the middlepoint of the spindle isn't important anymore. The spindle could even be forgotten by way of turning the stone with some friction drives that are embedded in the side of the machine. At least 3 drives could clamp the turningstones construction. The bottom plateau is fixed and placed in a water tight compartment. The top plateau can spin and has a round flat surface on which a sandingstone/grid/paper/magazinecover can be fixed...
Singer, the machine that keeps on giving...Especially combined with the mind of Uri. Good to see that you are alright. Have you ever considered creating a watch case with your extraordinary engravings?
Who is this intriguing character and why/how was it in my feed? Whatever, no matter, I'm certainly grateful. Who else is amazed that his wife allows his shop in what used to be their dining room? Compelling and oddly interesting. I'm gonna have to watch it again as I am not sure what I just saw.
Hi Uri, the reason the bevel gears you used are so loud is because they are straight cut gears. You get a similar issue if you use straight cut gears in a car, but in that application there are other benefits, hence why people use them. I'd suggest helical gears if you want to reduce the noise and improve the design. It has the added benefit of also reducing drivetrain losses. All the best.
Hey Uri! I was thinking with the water, you could use a lid with a rubber layer on it so the lack of air going in will stop the water flowing out and you can control the water flow with different sized holes for air intake. Love your stuff!
I have antique sewing machines. I hate to see the turned into vanities or end tables. What I see here is worthy repurposing. Now I want to build a treadle multitool. Very nice!
when uri put the new gears on and got it going i shrivelled up inside... NO GREASE? (in Uri's accent). when there is grease on them, then. It shall be. Delicious!
Yeah, I suspect it's a combination of no grease and maybe a slight misalignment somewhere that's causing that sound. Bevel gears shouldn't sound like that. No gears should sound like that.
What I suggest is that you get a sanding disc plate. They are manufactured to be flat. I think that would help alot since the plywood disc doesn't have a consistent surface for sharpening
Que manera de reír!!!!!!!! Gracias por la buena idea, por el buen invento y la reutilización de una vieja máquina de coser... Y gracias por las risas!!!! Te felicito!!
You might want to try a jeweler's lapping disc instead of the film. I think the last ones I purchased cost around $8.00 USD each. Sure fun watching you make the rig - water spout a great touch!
You can always trust an maker/personality with cuts on their knuckles. They do all their on saw cuts/stunts, as opposed to people who have their interns do it for them. Good job sir 👍
I like it. If I could maybe give you a slight modification. You can cut a glass piece top for your wood disc would give you a lot more options as far as sanding/honing paper and an easier option when it’s time to remove and replace the sandpaper. I love your work man!
I would replace the wooden sharpening wheels with a thick aluminium or glass circular plate for the sharpening wheel which would give you a truer surface for the sanding films and alum oxide discs. Couple a of fender washers would stabilise the wheels. Also, some heavy axel grease for the gears may help to quiet them. Love your vids and creations. I'll be making some engraving chisels using your methods on a previous video of yours.
Have you also considered going to an automotive parts store or machine shop and purchacing some valve grinding compound for sharpening your tools. Also you might consider on one of your wooden wheels, adding a cloth disk and purchasing a stick of jewelers rough. You do such nice work!
You can try helical gears or building a small box around the straight flute gears. More importantly however, use some grease. This should help that noise issue. Great project! Keep up the good work!
So glad Uri is alive and tinkering still! I'd love to see how you made many of your marking rules and other goodies! Try to find some Diamond hone sheet for the wheels. ;)
I like the way you apply at your projects.quality feedback seems in effect. to exude from step to step. A good name for that machine could be "Jamais contente"
Uri: *"its not smooth, Its not delicious"*
The quality control is why im here lmaooo
Its totally delicious uri, to us youtube fans. You got this.
Try Stefan Gotteswinter
channel.
A lot of delicious high precision machinery.
Slap it on a shirt!
Beautiful.It is the skill that matters and you have it
How is there not a shirt with this on it!
I like this guy. He’s equally a madman and a genius... real dr. Doofenschmirtz type haha
In addition, Uri is a supreme level master craftsman, genuinely funny and providing entertaining content with every episode. He is the best
I would totally agree but his stuff always works and doesn’t have a self destruct button...
He just needs an extremely dark and tragic backstory
i second on the madman part
Excellent! Shame about the reservoir split… it did look delicious in concept. 👍🏻😉
That sewing machine has been putting in work like it gets paid by the hour. I swear one of these videos it's going to suddenly be a table saw. Good work by the way.
Once upon a time, there actually was a table saw that was treadle powered. Not too much of a step for Uri to pull off, should he so desire.
@@pheenix42 Here's Roy Underhill using one.
ruclips.net/video/JXpn2ibxm88/видео.html
Uri's first sewing machine conversion was him turning it into a pedal operated coping saw thing. It worked okay. Still neat though.
I've seen a guy's shop where he has a bandsaw based on a singer treadle.
Just wait until he builds his flux capacitor (out of brass, deliciously engraved).
I love how you think so far outside the box. To you the box is a dot. On the horizon.
“It’s very loud and I start to hate it already”
Me when a baby starts to cry 🤣🤣
xD
Sorry wrong reaction

You are an artist from the ancient Renaissance. Your tools are very distinctive and unique. Greetings 🖒

I think whoever made that Singer sewing machine base would be well pleased by its reincarnation.
As an aside, his house slippers and gorgeous brightly colored socks made my day as much as the build.

I love Singers! And I've seen them get upcycled into a lot of different things, but this is the first time I've seen it become part of a woodshop kit!

That would be a better solution and very commonly done on small drill presses, especially Swiss ones.
it makes me so happy when you upload. thanks
Great work you do Uri. I showed my daughter a trick I learned from you on transferring a design to stock using acetone and she thought that was amazing. Said it will save her all kinds of trouble. Thanks!
As an ex toolmaker I congratulate you on your ingenuity, a pleasure to watch
Uri's philosophy seems to be "Start at lowest precision possible, and improve as necessary until delicious" lol. Effective!
I love that when I watch your videos, every time you turn wood on your lathe, closed caption says "applause & music" 💙
anything you can make that utilizes manpower over electricity is a big plus. you go guy
URI you always make me smile when you say things are delicious,,,
You truly are a quality craftsmen I love your work thank you for sharing it with us....
Amacing technology. This is what will shine like gold in times of powercuts.
Mr. Tuchman, I've been watching your videos almost from the first one. Your inventiveness and approach deserve a lot more subscribers; I hope you get them. You are a treasure.
I'm impressed you do all this work in your apartment.You must have some cool neighbors and a serious cleaning discipline
"If you make a mistake...it's a MISTAKE mistake..."
that hit me real deep
Little bit late to this party, only now I came across this channel.
Uri is just a star :) not only great builds, but also sense of humor, character.
Well done!
Uri, i'm a big fan, but....HOW THE HELL?!
How much time, how much energy it tooks to do a project like that! You're the crazy king of the "hand made". Much respect man!
Your skills are masterful. It would not surprise me to find out that your videos are actually one continuous shot in real time.
Thank you Uri for sharing.
Nice work and entertaining as usual.
One little hint:
Try a plain wooden disk. Plain wood does a great honing.
i love the video's where Uri figures out a way to make his own take on a complicated tool. Very delicious video.
Might I recommend something? I'm pretty sure the reason you're having dull spots on your blades is because the disk is only being supported in the center. I'd either suggest adding rollers (like casters or something) underneath near the outside edge, or replace the center rod with something more robust.
Uri, when you go out of your workshop, do you enter our boring world or some steampunk one with flying ships and steam exoskeletons?
or maybe just a cannabis shop for inspiration? 😉
It is an absolute pleasure seeing hope much your woodworking skills have improved over time. I just love watching you work!
Engaging and entertaining...and either your english or my ear have gotten better, maybe both, since I started watching your posts. Thanks

You should feel 0.05 micron aluminum oxide film. Delicious!
Absolutely spectacular video and channel. The combination of accent, project, and commentary is inspirational.
That sewing machine has seen more renovations and modifications than I think any manufacturer ever intended.
Binge- watching the mad genius that is Uri Tuchman!
Uri Tuchman is like the Joshua Weissman of woodworking
The Water is spritzing everywhere. I schmeiß me away. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Sehr sympathisches Denglisch. LIKE.
Dein Kommentar hat mir den Abend gerettet ^^
You have inspired me. I have putting off building a sharpener for too much time. It is time to start building. Thank you.
Nice to see your experiments even the ones that don't work out so well
It makes me so happy how you describe the blue lapping paper.
I got to use a professional modern version of such a device to prepare metallographic samples once. Yours seems great, the only big difference I would suggest checking out is the water system.

I don't know if I want to make *that*, but you definitely have me shopping for singer treadle machines to make SOMETHING. Tons of fun. Thank you!
Reminds me of the first manual/leg operated Galileo era optical machines.
Cool design and making!
The use of the word “delicious” in this video was really funny. Really enjoyed it. Stay safe and well
Impressive craftsmanship. Thanks for showing your learning process. I've been staring at one in my shop, thinking it was useful. Just not knowing what for. I doubt I put that much work in to mine. Lol
Outstanding, and the use of Dvorak's 9th was delicious!

I just love the subtle/not so sublte insanity that permiates your content.
I sware by those lapping papers. I love them. Also, always go backwards with them or you tear up your paper.
I would replace the wooden sharpening wheels with a thick aluminium or glass circular plate for the sharpening wheel which would give you a truer surface for the sanding films and alum oxide discs. Couple a of fender washers would stabilise the wheels. Also, some heavy axel grease for the gears may help to quiet them.

Uri you have built quite a beautiful lapidary machine✨😘🤌🏻Brother in machining🤪👍🏻✨.
Loved this, as usual a great watch & build. I could seriously watch you do just about anything.
You can try helical gears or building a small box around the straight flute gears. More importantly however, use some grease. This should help that noise issue. Great project! Keep up the good work!
