6 yrs later, this video is still helping us in the trade advance ourselves.
As an amateur who's never had much instruction, I find this kind of video to be very helpful.
2 step indication is the only way to be sure you have a good part if you have to flip it.
Joe, I don't know what is more valuable, your exceptional teaching ability or the great hints you give all of us. Thank you so much for sharing your skills with us.
My pleasure. Thank for the feedback.
I always thought his background music was the best.
So so true!
Some people take their knowledge to the grave and never share it and it is lost .
You share it and people learn from it and take it to the next level and do better work .
😊😢😮😅😮😮
Thanks for that Joe ,now I realise how concentricity can be so tricky, that explains why I had some problems with clock arbors not running smoothly, so your video was much appreciated, thanks buddy. Jim from Australia.
Glad to help Jim.
I'm only a hobbyist but I am very appreciative of that instruction that you give. Clear and concise. Can't beat it
I trained as a machinist 40+ years ago and am still glad that I found your site, as well as Stan Zinkowski's and Dale Derry's. I am learning a ton of stuff from you guys that I never learned back then. Keep up the great work, Joe!
Once again you've explained more than I realized there was to learn. THANKS!
Holy Crap Joe, you just turned a light bulb on for me... I think.lol... last week I was drilling then boring a 4" piece of 1" od stock. I could not figure out wtf was going on because the bore was oversized on each end but tight in the middle... I now think I know why..
Thanks man, you rock
Great video! I've been a machinist for about 20 years now and this is a very good way to show somebody that's coming up in this trade how to think about late work critically.
Joe, I just used this technique today - I was going crazy trying to get a part true - making an offset bore through a part. Well, the bore axis I was starting with was not parallel to the OD of the part. Happily I had stock left, so I trued the face, clocked the length of the OD as a check and then bored the hole. Fixed - thanks for making all this info available.
Absolutely clear instruction, and I'll be doing these checks from now on every time. You are a fine educator and as a new machinist I so appreciate you sharing so freely what you know. And, what great topics, so very useful. Thanks Joe for this one too.
Glad to help Jim.
sorry does this work no response
Thank you Joe love you videos I’m putting them in a folder for when my grandchildren are old enough to want to learn, I so hope they want to be craftsmen. TC
I’m getting some of these earlier videos in my feed, always great reminders. I do special purpose tubes with a spiral hole down the middle the OD has to coaxial to the hole as does the threaded feature on one or bot ends. In addition to that the faces on the ends must be perpendicular to the hole. They are long so I either use a thin shop made chuck on the outboard end of the spindle to help support and align the job. A precision ground rod with various bushings are used to “reach “ down the hole from both ends create additional points to indicate. I might take a jump into this and make a video of the process. This set up can take some time as toy showed where you adjust in one point it affects another.
Joe, i went to a trade school as a high school back in the 80's went through an apprenticeship and got my mold making papers. Before the Internet a trade school was the only place where you could learn the things that you are teaching. I wish that I had the opportunity that people have learning from the lessons that you are teaching. Your doing a great job and providing a good service to the young ( or old) people learning about machining. Keep up the good work
Who are these 27 people who dislike your video?
What's there to dislike?
Your instructions are simple and concise.
I was about eight years old when I first worked on a lathe. I'm fifty-two now and you still have shown me some techniques that are new to me. Fantastic channel. Please keep up the good work. You are an inspiration.
Bet those twenty-seven people don't know what a lathe is, let alone made a video for RUclips.
27 people bumped the dislike with their hand without knowing it on their phone.
School trained but never worked in the business so I'm dumb as a rock. Have a well equipped hobby shop and am learning more from your instructional videos than I did in 2 years of night school. Can't thank you enough. Wish I was closer - I'd sweep your floors.
I know what you mean. I got out of school (for the first degree) and got a job, quickly learning I did not know much. 20 machine shops later, I found out my last 5 bosses did not know much. :) Self employed now, and loving ever second of it. If you do want to get a job, (treat your jobs as a education you actually get paid for), I advise 2 things to accelerate your learning a great deal.
1) Never get a union job. In manufacturing, they have less skill than you do now, and never get much better. Can't start your won business that way. Today, because the talent pool is shrinking, non-union jobs are paying more than they ever did, but don't expect good pay until you have the experience.
2) The best place to work and gain skill is a "Job shop" where they work with a lot of different kind of materials and processes. The job shops are were the union shops send the more difficult work in many cases. You can learn some things with high volume production, but a job shop, you are doing something different every day, (usually). They can be tough to work for, but after about 3 shops, you will gain the skill to be able to be attractive to any shop who is hiring.
I was a "job hopper", and that is often looked down upon, but most people looking for a new job were not "lifers" at any shop, so that is the choice a employer has. I earned some sill at ever job I had, (and thankful they all hired me,---even when I got fired; big mouth usually), but I earned a ton of skill working for any shops.
Now my hobby turned into a business, and my machining skill set me apart from almost all of my competition, (modifying small gas engines for racing). I have to tell you,---it feels great making more money than any union worker in the world. :)
nice to see you around Doug
I’d help sweep too. Thanks
I have owned and operated a lathe for more years than I care to admit ( ok 50 yrs...) and you taught me something i had never considered and something I never knew. Thank you Joe.
Thanks for watching.
Seriously some of the best lathe advice I've heard. Great video.
Great Joe. Really made sense and appreciate your time helping us. Your tips even work down here upside down in New Zealand. Cheers Mike
Thank you Joe! This is something I would have never thought to do. I owe a lot of gratitude for your great educational videos.
I have so much respect for you and your experience Joe. Thanks for caring about the trade so much that you make a real effort to share with another generation.
Hi Joe,
thanks alot for sharing your knowledge and ideas with us,
it's greatly appreciated!
Best regards from Germany
Thanks Joe. I like your no-nonsense delivery. I learn something new every time I drop by.
Mart.
Thanks Mart. Thats the plan. Stay tuned.
This a subscriber from the future thanking Mr. Pie for this video 6 years ago!!!!
Joe I’v said it before ,but I have to tell you I have spent 50 years in engineering and trained as a toolmaker in the U.K. and just love you videos and learn or maybe relearn. So much from you.
You’re manner of presentation is superb.
SO PLEASE DO KEEP YOUR VIDEOS COMING I’m just one of your many grateful viewers.
Martin from the U.K.
Great tip Joe! New to machining and tips like this make for a great foundation of solid practices. Keep up the great work 👍😃
great video, I have seen more than a few people on youtube mess this up, and measuring taper incorrectly. Thanks for taking the time to show us the correct methods!
Joe always watch your channel its gold dust, thank you brilliant craft teaching again.
Very clear and concise instructions. Thanks so much for taking the time share these nuggets of wisdom and experience.
just another newb enjoying learning the right way to do things. younhave a freat selection of topics and as others have mentioned, you are a damn fine teacher.
please keep it coming!!!!
Another great tip Joe, I am self taught, but tips from pros like yourself really help, once again many thanks, Jack from across the pond
Great advice Joe, i like your straight forward videos, keep them coming please
Glad I saw this as I wasn't told about whip that I can remember, I may have just forgotten since it was so long ago and just recently got back into machining, either way I appreciate it and thank you joe.
Joe, cant thank you enough for these jewels of wisdom !!!!!!
They are taking my accuracy to a new level.
Outstanding. Take it and make it better.
have a little home shop now been out of the areo space shop 25years and all i see you do i give you two thumbs up keep it up good job!!! AL
Finally, a video that makes sense. Much appreciated
Thanks Joe, I don’t have the time to reinvent the wheel so I find a few minutes watching your videos is a huge time saver for this lathe novice. 👍
Glad to help
Following your video on thread cutting in the lathe away from the chuck enabled me to improve my thread cutting so much. Cheers Joe
Great to hear. Its a good technique.
Best advice ive been given in a looong time. Will never forget it and allways use it. Not all are willing to share their advice. And those stupid enough not to follow good advice and share it even more are not making the world any better. Thanx again. Your videos are awesome. Wish i had a machine shop... One Day. Maybe...
Joe I have seen so called machinist's who have run lathes for over a decade who didn't know or understand what you just explained. They would remove a 4 jaw chuck and bore soft jaws on a 3 jaw chuck for a 1 off part. I have almost 50 years in the trade and I am really glad to see you teaching the trade. Thanks!
Happy to do it.
Thanks for doing this for everyone!! So many teachers right now don’t show anyone anything ! They tell everyone to look it up.
Thanks for the great tip Joe. As always, your a true pro. Much appreciated!
Thanks.
I've decided I don't need a therapist anymore, just need to watch more of these videos! Thanks Joe, another awesome video, and greatly appreciated!!
Glad you like them!
Last year I purchased a1984 lathe from a friend,s wife after he developed mental issues. I am self teaching with the aide of You Tube postings as he is unable to help me with any of the basics. As such I have been struggling with some of the runout issues you describe for over a year. I was thinking I had twist in my ways. I have checked and re-leveled and checked again and again using plumb bob methods and precision levels. It would look perfect but I still had accuracy issues with a thru hole not being centered on the back side. After seeing this video I feel certain I can make it work properly. I plan to watch all your postings and am certain I can learn much from you. THANK YOU The light has finally dawned!
Thank you Richard.
Thanks so much for doing these videos. There are a group of you guys doing this stuff, and it ranges from beginner to advanced stuff.
It is all GREAT for us home, self taught "would-be" machinists.
You guys show us stuff that is "not in the books" and is invaluable knowledge for what seems to be a dying art in the western world.
Thank you so much! I put the information given by all of you to use All The Time. Constantly building my knowledge.
Thanks Charles. Put safety at the top of that list. Make sure the jewelry is off, roll up the sleeves and wear those glasses. Good luck with your projects. feel free to ask me questions if you have them.
I have to say this is outstanding information for everyone! I work at a shop that is all CNC machines but these principles definitely apply! A lot of people don't understand what "running true" really means. thanks for the video.
Thanks Joe, great easy to understand instructions!
I just bought my first lathe. Haven't operated one since high school 50 years ago. Thanks very much for sharing. I plan on watching more of your videos.
Feel free to post questions. I'll answer as time permits.
You are very good! Some people have an ability to convey knowledge and teach and you Joe are one of them. Thank you very much for doing so. You have no idea what a help you are.
Thank you, Glad to do it.
Great information, Joe! Thanks for sharing.
Come on Joe!!!! i really like to learn a lot of stuff, last year a learned a little about drawing plans whit Rhino... i like to learn watching tutorials.... But your videos are the best tutorials ever!!!! me, as a craftman (i´m a guitar builder) there is some people that ask to teach them... i always say: what do you know about? they say "nothing"... i ask Why?? becouse there is no info anywhere..... Sucks! if someone really wants to learn something there is a lot of info around in this time!!!!! and your videos are some of those GREAT resources to start...... i got a mini lathe 3 years ago, because i wanted to learn.... and looking the right info is the best time spended about... now i can make an Internal combustion engine that runs... and your videos are simply the easiest way to learn! thanks again for all the time you spend.
Joe, as always, you are the best !
That was fantastic info, Joe .
Hi Joe, I'm a recent subscriber to your channel and I'm learning a lot watching your vids and wanted to say thanks! Great stuff here.
Thanks for signing on.
Thank you, thank you! Great stuff, ....a new-bee here. And I thought building homes was something difficult in keeping the numbers correct. I love this new world of making metals fit. Yessah!!
That is pure gold. Thank you Joe.
Joe. I wish I lived in Austin. I'd be at your door everyday begging for a job. My company is so half assed. Thanks for showing how real work is done.
Thanks for watching.
Loving all the tips and knowledge you have given us, many thanks brother.
I like the content of your videos! Keep them coming! Lots of experience to learn from.
I am a professional engineer in my 50's who bought a lathe and mill and other machine shop equipment to learn machining and take it up as a hobby before I kick the bucket (also I've grown tired over the decades of hearing the trades tell me how little engineers know). Your videos are making my new hobby incredibly enjoyable and saving me a lot of frustration. Thanks Joe.
Thanks for the comment. Ask a question if you hit a wall. I'll answer you.
That’s an awesome tip that is so easily over looked. Thanks for the reminder.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Im always learning and videos like yours are a valuable asset.
Awesome info!!
Thanks again Joe. Your stuff is clear and on point, no wonder your subs are climbing so fast.
Thanks Jerry.
Just found your channel. I must say it is one of the best machining instructional channels on youtube(and I watch them all!) The way you explain things and give the reasons WHY you are doing something instead of just saying "DO THIS" is great. Your explanations just click with me more than other channels. Thanks
This kind of comment really makes my day. Thanks for watching. Feel free to ask a question if one comes up.
Very informative. Clear instruction as always. Thank you.
Thanks Joe, I have picked up on the temporary collet video. Thank you again for the information so clearly presented.
Please accept a big AUSSIE Onya Mate.
Glad to hear it Allen. Good luck to you. and.....I gladly accept the AUSSIE greeting.
Joe, love your video even they old ones. Just an old homegamer and your videos have helped me.
Brilliant!! It's one thing to buy the tool, quite another to know how to use it! Thank you
Its the most important tool in your box.
excellent video. I'm learning a ton from your channel...thank you Joe
Great tip ,thanks Joe. I always learn things from your video and explanation that help me do a better job.
Mission accomplished.
Focused , concise and clever, nice. Thanks Joe.
Thanks Thomas
Check the shoulder, check the shaft. Get the shaft round , recheck the shoulder, recheck the shaft. I machine on an arbor that I do that on EVERY time. If you don't, sooner or later you'll be in trouble. Excellent video and instruction. And as usual Joe , absolutely right.
Thank you very much. Gotta have square and concentric for a good part.
Thanks Joe the short but very informative section is a breath of fresh air ,also watched the section on tool height to centre was always shown to measure from centre of tail stock or a little bit down ,what u have shown me hear has saved me a lot of head scratching and aggravation as to why i couldn't get my work any better ,thank you so much.
This step is a giant step towards a better part. Good luck and thanks for watching.
Mr Joe big thank you for all your videos.
Lots of good info. Had to watch the vid a few times and think it through for a while, but now I understand perfectly. Great video Joe.
Thanks for watching.
Hey Joe, my no.2 son and I have been watching your films with great fascination. Although I am a pharmacologist of 30 years my real passion is engineering especially as a boy and now as a older man! Being brought up by a grandfather who was a clock maker gave me the interest in engineering. My engineering ambition is to complete a model live steam loco (5") and watching your films has very much given me the understanding I need to work my growing workshop of old but still good equipment. Please keep the films up, we are finding them really great and hugely educational. Thankyou for all your efforts. Dave and Family, Kent UK.
Hey Dave. Great comment. Thanks. 2 guys you should also check out are Mr. Crispin and Chuck Tipton. If you need a little more inspiration for your project. I'll get off the gun stuff for a while and get back to shop videos, but I do appreciate you guys hanging in and allowing me to check that off my bucket list. Got some good stuff coming. Thanks for watching. By the way....I did my apprenticeship in a company that specialized in precision miniature components for the watch industry. I worked in the toolroom and built positioning fixtures for secondary operations. The parts were so small, a days production would fit in a pack of smokes and had to be weighed to be counted. A 100 parts would stick to the tip of your finger. I've been into fixtures and prototypes ever since.
Joe, I am hard of hearing but your voice is great on your videos., Thanks Russ Anderson.
Good revision from what we've learn at school. So much to learn and keep in mind about machining. 👍
Very well done. Short and to the point. Love your presentation style. Daniel
Thanks Daniel
Great information, that explains why sometimes my parts are a few thousands out ,thanks, for the help
Great information, just starting as a hobby (59 yrs old) bought Craftsman 12”x36”, and now a subscriber to your channel with “alerts” on too!
Shoot me a question if you get stuck on something.
Just found your channel; subscribed after the first video. Great information and your no-nonsense right-to-the-point approach and excellent videography are awesome! Thanks for taking the time to share your experience and knowledge.
Thanks for subscribing. I appreciate your comment.
Great video on using a buck chuck!
I use a NOGA base with my black face B&S. This must be mastered before using OD grinders and working with 3R systems. Keep up the videos . The trade schools are not teaching these techniques any more. Glad I got my training in 35 years ago.
Great stuff Joe. Love your content and love your style! Thanks
Thank you.
Yer teaching young ones would will hopefully take on this great trade keep it up
I love showing the the guys who are trying haven't found alot
Thank you for this video. I am currently working as a cnc lathe operator, and I love to learn new techniques that I can apply to my work.
This is a good one !
Good job, Joe. I personally benefited from this one.
Hi what you say is very informative and precise together with the fact that you make it interesting too. Thank you.
Another excellent video, with another great tip! Thanks, Chris
Hey Chris, Thanks for stopping by.
Hi Joe , just watched another very interesting video of yours regarding precision indication on the lathe. You've just reinforced my findings on this subject ( I'm a mechanical engineer ) but self taught machinist. You have my absolute respect regarding all your tutorial videos and anyone who dares to give you a thumbs down does not appreciate what an accomplished engineer you are . Christmas day here in the UK merry Christmas Joe . Brian
Thanks Brian.
Very good information, very useful. I will see what I can do on my Sheldon Lathe of 1952. Greetings and keep going.
Hi Cap'n
Thanks again for sharing and informing us. This explains tons and will definitely assist in proper accurate turning.
We never stop learning every day.
Cheers
aRM
Good to hear from you guys. Hows the knife project going?
Awesome video sr, thanks for everything you do for us.
Delightful videos! Learning the correct way is fun! Keep up the the good stuff for us! Thanks! Dave OB
Thanks for the comment and for watching. Much appreciated.
Amazing, you got me on that one, I must have been asleep on that one. Makes so much sense. Thank you. Making notes of that.
Great to see your subs building so fast.:)
Excellent review Joe - some folks will be sure to miss some of those super important points.
Thanks Chris. Its usually the small stuff that makes the big difference. I'm happy with the subs too. Never expected it.
Phenominal video, thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
Thanks for taking the time to watch them and comment. Much appreciated.
Hi Joe. Real good video, I like your logic.....and shortcuts.
Joe, not sure you're reading this more than a year later. I'm just an electrical engineer and I understand what you said. Just want to say that this is very useful and I will show it to all the guys in our machine shop. Keep posting such great content!
Thank you. I appreciate you spreading this content around.
Makes perfect sense indicating face before od.
As always thanks for the tip!
Now you're talking! Square it up first.....Always.
