    All aspects of your videos are very professional, but what is truly exceptional in yours is the pacing. You include just enough of the various operations to clearly show what you are doing, without letting it get boring. You and Tony stand out in this respect. Most others let the operations go on much, much too long. Thank you!

      Gotta agree 100&1%. Although I've gotten into the habit of just skipping over huge sections of those boring parts.

    Stefan,
    Years ago when I was a young apprentice my training instructor taught me to use a piece of notebook paper for touching off. A piece half again as wide as the keyway underneath the cutter and very gently bring the cutter down until it is marking evenly. Very accurate, and fast. It works for any machine tool.

    More super Stefan work -- that keyway tool centering is without doubt the most logical method.

    You keep your shop and machines so clean!
    Nice job.

  • @panpasztet
    @panpasztet 5 лет назад

    Nice piece of job!
    17:19 - before pressing START machining -ALWAYS have one thought behind your head: if the machined groove doesn't have to be positioned with the keyway groove inside the center hole. To be honest, once I've fu...ked up the similar to your's sprocket - the first tooth had to be rotated for 4degrees relative to the keyway. Of corse the sprocket is non symetrical then, so it is also important to notice if your sprocket is correctly placed inside the dividing tool. If there's no drawing for the toothed wheel, always ask the client for where and what it's used.

    @sbell2496 7 лет назад

    A complete part from start to finish shown in just one segment. As others pointed out, with just enough detail to make it instructional without being boring. I have broaches for keyways but using the shaper provides superb control. The matte surface would help it retain some lubricant in other applications. Thanks for making such professional videos.

    It is always enjoyable watching you work. You do have a good grasp of the small details which is pleasure to watch and learn from. Thank you for taking the time to show all of your work and I must say the camera work in this video is superb, love looking down the hole as the shaper was cutting the key way.

    @genixia 5 лет назад

    Great video. Setting the height of the slit saw is a great example of why many gauge block sets have wear blocks - a size that the manufacturer makes a large batch of. You use the wear block on the end of your stack so that it takes any abuse instead of the other blocks that you keep pristine. Replacing one 0.100" block is much cheaper than replacing several odd sizes in a set.

  • @imysteryman
    @imysteryman 6 лет назад

    I have a G&E shaper, it has a broken elevating gear for the table, it is a bevel gear that has an extended side which is threaded with #6 acme threads so it looks like a mushroom. When the drive gear turns this gear is moves on the acme thread and raising the table. The acme thread is mounted in the base of the machine and it does not turn. I have not been able to find and good videos about making bevel gears as of yet. Have you ever had the occasion to make any bevel gears before?

  • @frankmuller5649
    @frankmuller5649 7 лет назад +1

    Nice finish on that part... looks very professional. So after his shaper completely rusts away after the next great war and some aliens excavate the remains 5000 years from now, the only thing left will be your ratchet gear in perfect, spotless condition. They will wonder who was able to make such quality parts in what they will refer to as our dark ages. ;)
    Very nice camera angles btw. especially your famous shaper right in the eye shots... glorious and very educational.
    Thank you for sharing another adventure and take care!

  • @TheMachiningman

  • @MegaCountach
    @MegaCountach 7 лет назад

    Another fine video Stephane, what size tip did you use in your blast gun for the aluminum oxide and that was 50 grit you used @ 90 psi? How many CFM is your compressor? I am just about to start using my new blast cabinet using a 18 CFM compressor with 90 grit AO @ 90 PSI but can't find any data on tip sizes. I also have 50lbs of glass beads which I understand you shd shoot @ 30-40 PSI or you will destroy the beads but I don't know what size tip to use, I just have ceramic tips for now but am interested in Boron Carbide in the future. Thanks, Doug

  • @ls2005019227
    @ls2005019227 7 лет назад

    I agree; there's something remarkably attractive about that part. Probably the combination of the bead blasted exterior, contrasted with the finish of the bore after hard turning.
    I've had a 14" G&E shaper since 2010; picked up a Rockford 24" HD hydraulic shaper a month ago that needs wired up. It doesn't have the ratchet feed wheel.
    Excellent shots of centering the keyway in the bore; I've watched your previous video on the subject multiple times. Do you ever use any other method besides "the even scratch"?
    Thanks again for the great video!

    @yannisirvine511 5 лет назад

    Stefan, in the shaper setup, as can be seen at 5:50, you seem to have used both copper and brass shims. What is the reason? In general, which do you find more useful around the shop?

  • @Cancun771
    @Cancun771 7 лет назад

    Flycutters may be annoying, but with multi-toothed cutters, there's often the problem that they only really cut on a single tooth, and you have a hard time fining the cause. How do you control that effect, also with shell mills etc?

  • @laveshrughunanan7512
    @laveshrughunanan7512 7 лет назад +1

    Hey Stefan. Did you know that you can use the reduction ratio of the rotary table divided by the number of divisions without needing to work out angles. i.e. 90 (rotations per rev)/30 (divisions) = 3 (hand wheel rotations). this also works for fractions. so if you want 100 divisions you get 9/10 turns (18 holes on a 20 hole dividing plate etc)

  • @kostasstamatakos1230
    @kostasstamatakos1230 6 лет назад +1

    Didn't the ratchet's teeth move a bit out of "alignment" with the radius of the part, if you perfectly centered the cutter on the first cut and just did one more (instead of two) for the 0,1mm extra width? Awesome vid and work as always, nevertheless!

    • @michaelpiotrowicz6100

    Stefan
    Great job very well explained
    Now a idea for a video. I have in the past made. Parallel tooth bevel gears on the mill/rt setup. But I have got consfused ,the correct way according to mr Law ,s book is you do three rotations with a plus ,normal,negative offset with a corresponding hight offset
    Now looking at the web all show a two stage operation
    If you could spare the time to explain the Stefan way including the calculation for the gear cutter selection I am sure it would help others and me
    The ones I have made have worked for the govener drive for a model steam engine last set was a 1 to 2 ratio so the blank angles were not 45 deg.
    In anticipation Stuart

Great work by the way. Nicely done.

  • @merlinmagnus873
    @merlinmagnus873 7 лет назад

    Cutting key ways with a file is a pain. last time I did one, I made a jig using a windshield wiper motor with a small crank arm and a file on the end of a long connecting rod. Turned it on and let it do its thing while I worked on something else. I've seen shaper attachments for bridgeports but I just don't do enough key ways to justify the price.

  • @bkailua1224
    @bkailua1224 5 лет назад +1

    Very nice. I imagine the part was more accurate and finished better than the original.

  • @dunc5798
    @dunc5798 7 лет назад

    You mentioned that when cutting the keyway on the shaper the clapper box was locked down so the "clapper didn't clap".
    I have had little practical experience using a shaper and hope you would explain why and when a clapper needs to clap and conversely, when it does not. Thank you.

    • @StefanGotteswinter
      @StefanGotteswinter  7 лет назад

      The "clapping" allows the tool to swing away on the backstroke, not to rub over the work. When workign in a bore, that can cause a nice crash - so you lock down the clapper box and feed the tool down only when it is not in contact with the work

    Stefan, I was very interested in the video series where you reworked your rotary table. But, I don't remember seeing the dividing wheel hardware. Did you make these parts, or did they come with the dividing wheel? If you made them, it seems like something you would have done during your series of videos where you were improving the rotary table. I'm just a little bemused. Thanks

    Now, brass tax: Why does your TEFC lathe motor have the centrifugal fan cover exposed to coolant and swarf in the back ( lower chip guard). Is that an after thought guard? It should have protection...no?
