- This video is a spindle build -- a spindle used as both a CNC lathe and 4th axis / indexer for the router.
Working better than I thought, but I've still got a long way to go.

This is the only channel that can get me to sit down and watch a 30 minute video and still be upset when it ends
WTF 30 minutes. I wasn't even aware :-)
@@nogmeerjan i was just about to say the same thing
I concur.
Right with you there

Super video. My daughter is home and listening over my shoulder. She teaches "G" code in high school shop. I told her that I am too old to learn because I am 73. After a good beating from her, I have changed my mind about a few things. 1, she is stronger than I. 2, I can do this., 3, the bruises will heal soon enough.
Ask Tony to teach you the chop.
Never too old for anything man
Is your daughter married? I’m sure there could be romance in the coding...😊
Her personal information is not available from me.
you can parlay those bruises into some solid extorsion currency
So, I'm sitting in my semi at a rest area. I'm fully expecting the cutting tool to crash into the work piece in the intro. Right as the cutter touches the work piece, the air brake pressure relief valve opens in the truck next to me. 😳 Yes, I jumped! 🤣
😂😂😂❤
Somehow you've managed to keep your viewers entertained while teaching difficult subject matter. I think you have the right mix of humor and technical information with exceptional video editing. I bet at least 80% of the viewer/subs don't own or plan to own any machinist tools, but you make the information quite interesting and fun to watch. Who wants to watch 20 minutes on thread pitch analysis and sine bar fundamentals?...apparently over a million! Well done Tony and thank you for putting so much thought and time into making these videos. They are well received. *tips hat*
Wonderfully summarised, Tony has a seriously entertaining and informative skillset across many many fields.
Bro i dont even own a drill
I owned a bunch of this stuff, but my wife and I “retired” and all of my stuff went away with the weather. Meanwhile I have since replaced $10k of sewing machines since the move. Apparently, all grandma’s sew around grandchildren ( I should’ve seen that coming). Well I’d imagine that spare bedroom might be kind of cluttered with a mill in the corner, and the cats would play he’ll with the chips.
Great comment and replies!
Don't lie to us TOT... You didn't build this... You just left your mill and lathe alone in the garage too long and came to to find their offspring....
i like to think his garage goes full on sausage party
@@anikidwolfy Oh my Lordy that is going too far!
@@TinS0lder this hot old tony
He won't admit it because he hoped that the tig and the mill would get it on to produce a 3D-printer. But while the tig, ahem, sharpened its tungsten, the lathe got in between and the rest is history...
Life, uh... Finds a way.
I'm trying to get some of my own work done over here! Now I have to put everything down and go over to the couch and make myself comfortable and watch this!
same try to fix my Y axis here.
I was meant to be cooking...if clickspring posts a new video Im gonna starve
Your video production and editing work is getting very outstanding TOT. It really makes watching a half hour video very pleasant indeed.
Wait, it was *that* long? I didn't even notice.
Yeah I had no clue I just wasted half an hour
You mean that karate chop at 7:22 was fake?
Yup, ToT's style is unique. Humorous, but just hitting the right amount of silliness without overdoing it.
Great sound effects to

just work with stainless steal and sell those as pot scrubbers
kokodin that’s actually a good idea for Tony to put in his RUclips shop! Awesome! And just in time for Christmas...
🤣 Excellent idea!
"stainless steal"
steel
@sexiewasd I made a small one that burns wood with an hairdryer for a blower. Like a fool I put some charcoal in it and melted the bottom out of my steel crucible! Admittedly it was only very thin, so the next one will be the bottom of a non returnable 'W' sized oxygen cylinder.

Great video Tony. Something I noticed, just in case it helps (and in case you're still using this) is that the motor mounting flange is not square to the axis of the "shell" which holds your bearings. You can see the runout at 10:26 if you look closely. Anyway, thanks for all the great content - always a laugh and always a good lesson too.
I'm still scratching my head as to why people would thumbs down these videos. Seriously... Why? Explain yourself. He doesn't click bait, has no commercials, is quite quick with his work, and adds some humor. Are you looking for music?! Broken fingers? Blood? Seriously...stop thumbing down stuff you probably don't understand anyway. Ok... I'm done... Whew.
Normally i'd say it's bots... but even the bots have a so much to appreciate in this video.
I would have to go with jealousy.
Same as when u thumbs down a random video u look at the comes up on recommendations that has little to do with anything you like.
Because they are in a position where their integrity is comprised.
Those saddo's do the same to Adrian Black, Big Clive and a few others even after the video has been uploaded for only a few minutes.
"Ideally" this video should be LONGER
agreed
I remember from my machine design class that having set screws 180 deg apart is actually weaker and more prone to loosening than having them 120 or even 60 degrees apart. I think this was in Shigley's iirc. May not apply since you're grabbing a flat, but still a random fact of the day!
True, since the screws are opposing eachother rather than working together; so all your holding power is solely on the threads, not by friction against a face.
@@dimitar4y Well, damn! The things you learn in the comments of a ToT video!
Generally true, but there's one exception: if you use them (2 @ 180) to improve the holding of a self-holding taper, and incline the flats (and the screws) in the opposite direction from the flanks of the taper, so the vector sum of the two forces is a thrust axially, tightening the grip of the taper. The slightest slip will increase the tightening effect further still.
I've only recently come up with that idea (needing to transmit a sh*t tonne of torque without much available space) and it worked a charm.
The key difference is that tightening the screws, progressively and in turn, does not create or retain clearance as it would with a cylindrical fit.
@@Gottenhimfella Well, yes, if the screw is flat on it's pushy bit, it'll be useless. But if the screws point to eachother, but are off-center, and have little pyramid heads, they'll push the SIDES of the thread against the object for massive holding torque.
@@dimitar4y That's another way. Not quite as strong as flat-ended screws set at an angle, bearing on flat "whistle notches" milled across the shaft, because your solution provides only line contact between a conical screwpoint and a conical dimple. This means the material along this line will be displaced (by yielding) at a lower torque, leaving the joint vulnerable to reversing loads.

You see, it's a double entendre because of the famous quote from the move Spinal Tap, "these go to eleven", these being guitar amps. Whereas he's changing the amps settings on the welder.
That's so sweet, I've been a machinist for almost 2 years now, and watching your videos really motivates and inspires me to take on projects of my own!
Wow that transition from twist bit to reamer!!! I swear I was watching Spielberg's work! TOT=FTW
Well how exactly am I supposed to fully enjoy a ToT production with my pants on?

well i just learned that whiskey is a terrible fluid to go out your nose and a terrible drink to have while watching your vids. british sun tan, that's good.
Pause when taking a sip. No nose-whiskey and the Video lasts longer.
That got me too.
You drink alcohol, you're so cool.
Oh man, snarfing whisky is the worst! It hurts so bad!
BrannDailor Are all of us who give this comment a thumbs-up British, do you think? But it was a great aside! Les
Milled my first gear today.... 36 tooth 14.5 pressure angle 16 DP for my old 12" Atlas / Craftsman lathe..... THANKS TONY!!!!! Also anyone who may have a worn out lead screw on they're Craftsman lathe.... ( mostly due to it's dual purpose of threads and feed ) I removed mine, flipped it 180 degrees, machined the drive end to fit the old tail end brass bushing, and made a sleeve for the drive end!!! Turns threads like new now.... No need to buy or build a new lead screw!!
Thanks for your channel Tony!!!!
Ok so ive been a pressure relief valve technician for 18 years and have recently moved to a new company who repairs many more types of valves, so long story short i need to learn to machine and weld. Your channel has given me some very serious inspiration as to what to do to start getting comfortable with more than just taking a simple skim cut or re establishing seat dimensions, i am going to start looking for a reasonable mini lathe where i can start to teach my self how to cut threads and turn parts from raw stock. You are really an inspiring guy tony so thank you for sharing your humor, skill, and insight.

TOT. What can I say? That was just Amazing. The Combination of the Machinist, Welding, Tooling. Metallurgy and CNC Knowledge can only be Compared to your Video Production and Brilliant Narration Skills.. RUclips is a World Stage and You’re a National Treasure..
That is really impressive to build a simple spindle with a direct stepper motor drive. IYour videos are one of the few I don't skip through.
I always ground more rake into high steel tools cutting Aluminum. A magnetic brake on the chuck plate would help some of your indexing issues.
I had a CNC teacher many years ago (40) that only had a Bridgeport CNC mill, but taught lathe programming using it by putting the stock in the collet and clamping the tool in the vise. In this manner, it was programmed just like any other CNC lathe - tool movement perpendicular to the center line was X, tool movement parallel to the centerline was Z. At that time it was all mostly manual programming (we did use a system/language called COMPACT II using a dial-up modem to a mainframe for some "CAM" type programming).
If you only do a few small parts once a month and don't mind sitting on the floor, bridgeports make fine lathes.
Turned it to eleven, havent you!
I read that in the voice of Colin Furze...
On the 11th no less
You know that programmers count from zero, right?
Tony, regarding your bird nest problem, why not just use an end mill in your spindle instead? Your feeds/ speeds seem reasonably light enough.
Amazing work, all done in a hobby shop!
Next project? I dunno, dedicated small CNC lathe with a spindle that has hydraulic closing action which will take collects? Internal tapers? Two speed gearbox? Maybe even your very own homemade spindle motor??? Automatic tool changing and dedicated turret?????
So many more ideas looking at your videos!
I love that you remembered to sharpen your hand. I can't tell you how many projects I've had to scrap due to dull tools
Have you considered, say, an electromagnetic brake (steal the clutch off an automotive AC compressor?) to get rid of that last bit of play? Would be a good upgrade option for higher spindle speeds without needing as much holding force, if you ever find yourself contemplating a different motor that is.
Another amazing video from TOT. The 36 Chambers of TOT is strong here.
I kept checking the time of the video hoping that it wasn't going to end. Exceptional job. Thank you for sharing.
Pants? I didn't sign up for this!
Brad Miles GOT MY HAT THO!
I love that you pointed out the constant surface feet, i had no idea that mach 4 could do that!
What about... and stop me if you've heard this one... what about a 12vdc clutch brake like the kind you'd see on an automobile AC compressor. When in indexing mode, move to position, send 12vd to brake, perform operation, retract spindle, release break, index, etc.
Dunno, just a thought since you can't introduce any drag on the stepper.
Cool build, can't wait to see what you "turn" it into, and it's still better than a haas. ✌️
ToT is literally the only RUclips creator I like all his vids the second I start to view.
Sensei Tony. Deeper cuts should break the chips better, and a chip breaker probably helps. But what if you use the router with an endmill to cut while you turn, a millturn. Only one thing to do if you want more torque, add a step down pulley or a worm gear...
But deeper cuts require more rigidity, forces the mill wasn't designed to take.
I'm pretty sure he knows deeper cuts, higher feed, and chip breakers will help chips to break.
Connecting the motor shaft without a flexible cupling will cause the motor bearings to prematureley die because they will never be perfectly aligned to the bigger bearings and will get "directed" by them, eaven more so because its spinning very fast, you should realy implement a coupling before the expensive motor dies
spot on, having been working with shafts and motors for almost a decade no doubt that motor bearings wont last long without a flex coupling...
In cases like this we would have a bigger hole and use a keyed compensation plastic bush
I think the thing needs a 2:1 reduction planetary gearset. That would solve all the torque and locking problems and also reduce the need for removal of pants, as the lower speed will be less likely to cause unwanted evacuation.
Yes true for "lathe" ops. However, a flexible coupling would not be ideal when completing indexing ops as this would reduce the rigidity between the brake (motor holding position) and the part.
Please, ToT, see this comment and talk about this issue in the next video!
I just love you stopping the music during that wielding bit when your not wielding or grinding and for some reason it makes it so much better to watch
Getting back into it, 70 years old disabled and a perfect past time to build my own stuff for my little farm. Thank-you. very interesting..
Note: When watching with your kids, you'll have to rewind the cold rolled karate chop about 75 times.

Promising start, must watch!! ;))
Amazing work Tony! It is refreshing to be able to follow your quest in these complicated projects, yet have understandable narrative. As always: great (and fun) editing too! Thanks for sharing your adventures :)
I just found your channel.. Nice vids and I like your sense of humor. :-) So I hope you won't roll your eyes too much when I comment on how you pressed the bearings (maybe someone already commented about this). Bearing press @13:45 good - all pressure on the outer race. Bearing press @14:21 not good - unless you have a cylinder inside resting on the inner race to ensure the pressure is also only against the inner race and not being exerted on the bearing balls. This is especially important for the lower-cost bearing you mention, and helps greatly extend bearing life at high speed. Most ball bearings have rather low thrust load ratings, even while not moving. Another thing I think I would have done - for that flange that holds the chuck - drill some access holes in it so that the screws holding the bearing retainer can be tightened again later (or removed, if the holes are large enough), if needed. Could come in handy if that bearing needs to be replaced.
Tony, to avoid nested turnings owing to small DOC, perhaps you could rough out part by mill turning, then single point the finish part. Say a 1/4 inch ball nose or bullnose carbide endmill in spindle bearing up against rotating part. You get the idea.
What are the chances of doing a video on a pneumatic brake for the new add-on? :) Maybe using it as a infinite precision dividing head, and solve the holding torque issue with that brake. Maybe even using a disc brake behind the chuck and a brake jaw to lock it. Would be a lot of fun + a handy tutorial for my next build :DDDDDD Awesome vid mate!
Electromagnetic brake would also work well. Electromagnetic so the chips fall off when the power is off.
A pneumatic/solenoid operated pipe strap?
Obviously this all assumes the play can't be eliminated in settings or other hardware... Contacting the motor rep/help line and finding out if the motor is capable of holding position without any lash would be my first step.
It's a steeper... It "locks" itself. (Enough to do the very light work he'd be doing with the router.)
J-man72 b I think electromagnetic brakes have sort of like steps, they dont have infinite resolution so to say. They would rotate the spindle a few degrees towards that fixed position. Maybe there are EM brakes that dont have that issue but when i was looking around, all i found were these ones :/
Andrew Delashaw Not sure now if it was a stepper or an AC servo anymore, but either way, locking itself in would be a much more reliable feature than depending on the motor to hold on for dear life :D
@@lukaradakovic5463 I like your disc brake idea, myself. It would need to be carefully engineered not to disturb the rotary location when actuated. This would allow the motor to be optimised for horsepower rather than holding force. I wonder if an encoder could be used to enhance positional accuracy?
"I was going to use nails, then stopped, took a deep breath and came to my senses" 😂

I have just inherited (long story) a lathe, Bandsaw and other workshop tools. I believe they are air powered as there is a massive compressor as well. Haven't had chance to have a proper look - and I think they are wood tools - but hey hey exciting times.
I appreciate the music. I always wondered what it would sound like during a montage of a family fixing up their cozy hut as they accept this once-frightening island upon which they found themselves shipwrecked is actually a paradise, and more importantly, their new home.

i just love that stepper motor winding up sound!
Well done. I cringed a little when ferrous parts (bearings, housing, shaft, chuck) were assembled without anything to prevent oxidation, though. IMHO any mating parts are either made to be disassembled or not, so grease or thread locker goes on any such surface. Very informative channel, Tony.
tony, to eliminate the play you could add an hydrolic disk? brake on your chuck/spindle or whatever. you could also trigger it electrically with an actuator.
Wait?! What!? Yours goes to eleven?
Well time to nerd out again.
My British suntan is one shade darker grey than that paint, I’ll have you know dear chap.
The discrepancy between machining skills and welding skills here is hilarious! From what I have seen more recently happy to see that gap has in large part closed :-)
Greetings Tony,
I have watched several of your videos and you do good work. Especially for a hobby machinist. I have been machining for over 40 years and have built my own CNC stuff too. I started with steppers because they are open loop and this made the drivers much cheaper. But this was in the 80s and things have really changed. I too was surprised you didn't break that endmill. 3 cheers for modern micrograin carbide. Anyway, because step and direction input servo amps have become so inexpensive, as have encoders, I only use servo motors now. By adjusting the amp you can make the servo very "stiff" while still getting reasonable speeds and torque, much better than with a stepper motor. And you can get resolutions much finer without sacrificing torque. Mebbe your next CNC project should use a servo. Your Mach4 software will work just fine with one. There are even servo controllers available for the ubiquitous brushless DC hobby motors used in all sorts of RC stuff. These powerful and small motors are basically the same as AC servo motors.
Cheers,
Eric
I really enjoy the mix of the humour and video effect but I draw the line at ‘British suntan’ 🤨 But all said a done, another great video - thanks for sharing. 👍 John 🇬🇧😋

CNC ocarina?
@@williamchamberlain2263 They used to cut vinyl record masters on a lathe.
@@Gottenhimfella driven from the original recording on wax?
@@williamchamberlain2263 That's going back a long long way. From about WW2 era, acetates were used. Live recordings could be (and in boutique studios, for maximum fidelity, still are) mixed straight to a recording lathe, on which a master disc was cut. Also known as an acetate, but it was basically a layer of special lacquer on an aluminium base. More usually, the mix would be captured on magnetic tape, possibly multi-track, allowing subsequent tweaks. This could then be output as analogue signal to the toolpost of a lathe, cut to an "acetate", which was plated with metal, then used to make negative metal molds or "stamper", which in turn would stamp vinyl copies in large quantities.
The acetate itself could be played (with very high fidelity) on a standard turntable, tone arm and stylus, but would not last long.
The integrated CNC Lathe + XAZ CNC Miliing sounds like a killer combo. Congratulations to a yet another facet of your amazing adventures Tony!
In lieu of new videos, I’m watching older videos from ToT. Goddamn they are so good. Maybe the best I’ve ever seen on YT. Even if I had zero interest in the subject matter, the production, the writing, and the editing, are just top notch. Miss you Tony!
I’d put you up there with Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton for mastery of visual comedy.
You do know that most of the people reading your comment, will be saying WHO THE HELL is Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, I don't recall them walking on the moon.
Maybe look at car wheel bearings in the future?
I've needed a new video This Old Tony...
I love your creative videos.

Hey Tony,
Have you configured Holding Current to 100% in the software? That might well have some responsibility to the wiggle if so.
I suspect it's set up in a lower hold current and that wiggle is simply the 'closed loop' taking it's place and self-correcting!
I think the motor is microstepped in between 2 actual steps, the motor can only really hold on the steps, not much torque in between.
@@axiom1650 That is indeed true, It's hard to judge, but that looked to be a bit more then 1.8 Degrees, and generally it will hold half-steps very well too.
Long term, I'd suggest moving to a 1kW servo motor. You can buy some chinese ones with high resolution encoders and drives for about the same as the selling points for one of those Servos.
@@axiom1650, I think you may be correct but how can you fix that for any feature in any orientation (other than the 200 full step positions) .
@@hirsutusi5536 Perhaps by allowing some adjustment in the motor mount to align the steps with the 90° orientations would be a fairly easy fix for square parts, or maybe by not using direct drive (geared down 5:1 for example). In any case it'd be difficult to create a gear with current setup, even though this CNC is probably one of the best homemade ones on youtube. This motor could work well if trading some of the top speed for torque.
@@DUIofPhysics That wiggle is indeed a lot more than 1.8 degrees, also a lot "softer". With regular stepper motors the hold is much tighter and if you overpower the motor it snaps to the next position or the driver goes into over current mode (atleast my cheap ones).
Ah, electrical tape will always be the perfect shop bandaid.

Hi Old Tony this is Old Terry here, relatively new to Metal working, wood has always been my medium of choice, have a mini lathe which I have made many mods to and now milling with various attachments, like your channel and have just subscribed, good sound - good explanation and a bit of banter thrown in for good measure , more power to you Tony 👍oh by the way I'm in Scotland
welcome aboard Terry!
What a great hobby solution. Been wanting to make something like this for some years now, nice to see your approach on a mill turning head.
Link to your clones channel please .
Im interessted aswell. Is he the more woodworking kind or does he just do more hand work?
Probably secretly oxtoolco. More space, more machines, more handfiling, more sexy optical metrology. Equal amount of talking, equal amount of knowledge, similar video setup, similar hairline?
Beeing impressed by your karate skills i have been thinking about you should rename to This old," THE HAND" Tony

I like machining because how easy it is to be precise. You can make thing so exact and it’s so satisfying
You can make almost anything or the tools needed to make almost anything. Very nice
That's freaking amazing! I'm a cnc lathe machinist and to see both of those work is awesome! I've been diving into live tool programming for yesr and a half now for c-axis and it's a lot of fun! Btw awesome job with the setup. Hoping to play around with that stuff in the future.

Casey Thimm for the perfect manufacturing team you add, btf/ ptm. Beat to fit/ paint to match.
So I've been thinking about your build. And if you want to use it as a 4th axis there will be play issues. So, my idea. Use a mtb disk bracket setup on it. I'm sure you can make a.device that will either pull a cable or pump a brake lever. Then get it to signal that when you need it locked tight and you'll get no movement at all. While stationary. Anyway. Thanks for being so rad. Keep it up. 🤘🏼

AvE has the Canadian NileRed rocket chemistry angle, will ToT go to CodysLab for his chem? Or will something else entirely happen?
does it not seem that, the further they get from the "home machine shop" level, the less relevance to much of the audience?
@@lohikarhu734 TOT could transition into a home shop knitting & quilting channel and AvE could do makeup reviews and curling iron teardowns and they would be just as successful.
@@mikedrop4421 wellllll... both are good presenters, but I have a limited amount of time to watch videos, instead of making chips, so watching CNC machine- building, or CNC machining, just eat up too much of that little bit of time.

26:06 Hmmm... Could maybe add some kind of friction break that engages after the turn but before the milling starts.
i was thinking the same thing. A clamp or something that disengages before any lathe spin command
I want tickets to be part of your studio audience! And is there an award yet for RUclips video production, because, you sir, deserve an award! Thanks
I have the same idea and recently i'm thinking about it. I'm just not quite sure do i have to use flexible coupler, or not. I already have two bearing bodies with 4 bearings - two radial (needle) and two axial, with two self locking nuts. The motor i will probably use is 12Nm hybrid servo from ebay. Your results is more than great for the purposes you gonna use the add-on :)
And of course - the humor level is high enough, nearly to the point of precision of your work ;)
I karate chopped some 1”crs and broke my hand. Thanks this old Tony.
Did you forget to sharpen your hand?
You have to start learning this at a very young age to know the perfect technique. Also, carbide cereal helps a lot in my experience. Finally a good purpose for those crunchy broken end mills
I had to pause and look away when I heard “the color is somewhere between battleship gray and... British sun tan”
ave i have a 500,000 cnc router
TOT but can it do this
Heeyyy, a fellow nine year old machinist enthusiast :)
Empire of Dirt arms race?
Why does he have so many routers? What could he possibly do with 500,000 routers? By "500,000," you have to mean a quantity of routers, right? It can't be $500,000 because his Haas VM/VF VMC isn't anywhere near that price. (Just busting your balls.)
Tony, I have a question. I'm sure there is a good reason. Why wouldn't you use taper bearings in this application? They can handle both axial and radial loads and can be adjusted to almost zero play. The downside would be providing a way to keep them lubricated. I would love to hear your opinion.
Excellent video as always and I really like the fact that this group of followers don't over scrutinize and nit pick ridiculous details.There are a bunch of good guys here that enjoy the content and subtle humor and come away having learned something and enjoyed doing it. That's a rare combination. This is the only channel I subscribe to. Thank you Tony.

Although I'm no machinist in any way, I love watching and rewatching your videos for a few years now. Your style of editing just always cracks me up and has helped me through some tough times, so thanks TOT and keep up the good work!
