Cross Slide Upgrade
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Again used set of bearings and steel ball to reduce some of the stress that was on cross slide handle , I also made a new handle that spinnes in its place and feels a lot better , very happy with what its turn out , nicely done
old bicycle bearing path... interesting. it certainly takes less space but the reason sealed bearings are used is that particles do not get into bearings. i guess it is easy enough to clean and repack annually. wonder how it has been going in the past 3yrs 🙂
it was ok for about one year , but it start to worn out, and didn't work smoothly, I made an spacer and filled the gap that I made, also some of viewers tried it they couldn't get it right , is better to use proper trust bearing , I will modify it again later
@@ParsMaker i'm old enough to have used bicycles with loose balls and bearing race. that race is hardened and ground. and still, with the very high amount of biking i did, i took apart, cleaned, and repacked with grease every year. later when i was training for serious races, i rebuilt my bearings every other week. i was riding 200km/day then 🙂
put links up where you got ball bearings and size, move your camera on a boom hanging out over the lathe. More light.
Well done.....another success story..........I like the music, reminds me of the song Ma Baker.... it 's not too obtrusive in the important parts but fills in the in between machining stages.
Nice Video :) I think i'm going to do similar think on my lathe. Yours looks great btw ;)
You could try to cut your "ehms" and your breaks out of the video and form complete sentences in your cutting-program... i'm doing this. Or repeat yourself all the time while filming until you got the whole sentence you wanted to say and then cut it. Greatings and keep going 🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️
thanks mate, I try to improve

Usful technic
im doing cross-slide w/ball bearings. l ordered thrust bearings on ebay, 2 sets/$11.71.
what is the bearing model number
Very good. I have just bought the same model of lathe (back in stock at Warco). I am not sure yet how much I want to modify it as I am pleased at how well it seems to work as delivered. I have only just unpacked it so have only had a brief go at turning on it. It's good to see how it all comes apart and your bearing upgrades look good. I think I will start with the handles. Thanks 😀
you gonna love it , just don't rush for the upgrades , take your time and be patience :) ,,,,
For clarification. At the end you said dont use the thrust bearings. Need to say dont do the mod or the mod with bearings does work. Rather confusing.
Please share the size of steel balls that you used
is 2mm, but you can also use a brass washer if you have too much gap in your braket
I was also happy to see success
Very nice idea. So the hole diameter in the bracket is 13mm, not 14mm as in your picture?
13mm, but Dont use my aspects , measure your feedscrew and brakets and calculate for your self because these mini lathe made in different companies , and sizeis and toleranceis are not semilar
@@ParsMaker OK. Thanks! Keep up the good work!
Hi, Great mods and vids . Fab work 👍🇬🇧
thanks mate
great friend, good luck 👍👍
thanks
Thanks for your video, very helpful!
Thanks for watching
@@ParsMaker I've not undestand (in other video) how you can do threating with motor (if is possibile)
@@antonio.stefanelli if you referring to the stepper motor , I only use that for feed, for threading I take off the belt and use gear sets to do the thread,
did u say,, do not use thrust bearings??
I dread to think how many novices will tray to copy what you have done....So little explinations..direction is minimal what your doing or what needs to be down...to be fare i think you have made more problems on your lathe...then you you solved.. i am sure i have spotted the outcomes are worse or as bad as they were in the 1st place..
How to disect a good Warco lathe... that may had neede a few changes....ive not seen you make any real working functional things other then upgrades.. best of luck...
The reason that I can't put so much details in there simpily because my videos are already long and giving more explanition makes it boring , here I just shearing my work and the viewers get some idea and it's up to them wether they want to do the same thing or not , but I really avoid the false claim on these type of videos .
belive it or not since I put those bearings on I haven't had any issue & It works smoothly
I often make small parts but is not somthing interesting that I really want to make video for it.
tnx for comment though
I'm glad James alfred is not doing a spelling test 😂🤣
@@johnwhitty1236 LOL....my thoughts too.
Lo provo anch'io grande bravo complimenti anche a me da un fastidio lo sbalzo che ci sta ok
f.. k, please don't use music, work 👍
I try mate not to do it
Wonderful and useful video sir. My lathe have older compound slide screw. want to modify like yours/...Can i know the OD of the retaining block area and what size is the threaded part.
the lead screw OD is about 10mm and dial&bracket (block) is 34mm ,
@@ParsMaker thanks sir . How much is the threading?
Hi very good thanks for sharing your video
Thanks for watching, just if you plan to do same you better to wait for my another video, because I'm planning to change this upgrade with something better, also is quite tricky to get this right, some of my viewers find it difficult to do so, and complaints about lack of details,
Too bad the skills of the "Skillful Man" don't extend into the narration, presentation, oration, or demonstration realms, because you explain things (i.e. "talk") WAY too slowly. Painfully slowly. I've got the video playing at 2x and it's STILL painfully slow to watch & listen too. I'd play it faster, but youtube doesn't have that. "Time" must grow on trees where you live. Where I live it is in short supply, a fixed amount, and you are dragging me closer to death than you should be. "Thanks"
thanks for feedback, trying to improve
Actually really good narration is an extra skill set mastered by few, I've tried! lol
@@mmpiforall5913 Arguably one doesn't need to "master" narration skill, only narrate acceptably. Thus anything above "mediocre" is largely accepted by listeners. The way you get better at narration is through practice, getting feedback from listeners to guide your learning of some of the technique. Also, joining Toastmasters can help.
@@ParsMaker Don't worry....it's nice to see someone with a relaxed way of describing the progress as opposed to some one that rabbits away and gabbles a lot of rubbish.......I can't stand those egoistic types that post videos on here and simply must get their ugly mugs in front of the camera when we only want to see the machining part.
That T37 QCTP is my favorite type, although I have a wedge type and a swag of tool holders I bought without really thinking of the differences.......I might do a retool for the T37 type one day.
What kind of QCTP is that? Does it accept 16mm tools? Thank you!
T37 Quick-Change Toolpost , limited to12mm
@SkillfulMan Could you please clarify upon your dimensions please for the crossline washers and the amount and size of the bore needed into the screw mount, please.
Am looking to do this mod myself but am a little confused by your technical drawings :)
Thanks
my feed screw diameter is about 10mm and cut a groove with dept of 0.5 mm and width of 2mm near bigger diameter area of the feedscrew where diameter is 13mm , so by placing the 2mm steel balls on the groove the outer diameter of the bearing is roughly is 13mm, semillar size as bigger area on the feedscrew and adding 2 washer from both side, and whatever was the gap between the washer is same dept hole in the braket ,
Dont use my aspects , measure your shaft and brakets and calculate for your self
@@ParsMaker thanks for the reply my feed screw is 10mm the same as yours so makes things a bit easier, did you groove out the 2 washers at all or just left them as they were ?
Thanks
@@eXtReMeMoDd3rZ yes I did trim the washers too , the washer OD also should be 13mm
Lovely jobbly
Can I ask you wich tools you use on this mini lathe? 10mm or 12 mm ? Thanks
if you mean turning tool, 10mm
@@ParsMaker yes, excuse me for the language
@@antonio.stefanelli no problem mate ,
What diameter ball bearings did you use?
2mm
Nice video and a very good idea well explained. Could you please tell me the size of the small loose ball bearings. Keep up the good work. 🦊
2mm
Thanks 🦊
