Metal lathe, milling machine, and machine shop work in my DIY garage home shop! Join me while we explore and learn about the incredible art of machine work. Machinists are the unsung heroes of our modern society. Somewhere, at the beginning of just about every modern convenience that we enjoy, is a skilled machinist. Whether it be making the tools we use, molds, parts, patterns, or any other number of essential tasks, machinists make the world go round. We will explore the roots of this great and noble profession in manual machining, and eventually even learn some of the modern magic of CNC machining!
Who am I?
I'm a hobby machinist, with a passion for old machine tools and manual machining.
I am here to share and learn.
Being self taught, much of my limited knowledge, has come from others sharing their experiences online, just as I am doing now.
My hope, is that by putting my work in front of much more knowledgeable machinists, we can all learn something new together.

Machining a Spindle Thread Cap - NO COMMENT
Great video . If you want please answer if not all is good ! What is a rough price you would get for this part ? Again just want to understand the level of price not the actual price .thanks
Man what do you do with the press, apart from pushing bearings in, nobody talks about its use cases in detail haha :D I want one because I want to build a sheet metal bender with some finger press attachments but most people I see online having these presses dont have it, what do you guys do with it, making me go crazy not to know hahaha :D
nice item and job, I think I would remove the spacer as it was only there to take up space on the thread, and that would reduce the height again. again nice job.
Hi I'm here from your comment on DaVinci Resolve vs Final Cut Pro. It was 1.5 year ago, and I wonder which editing tool you use nowadays?
@@jsbr I still use Final Cut. I don’t see any reason to bother with anything else, it works really well for me
The amount of material you wasted is very quickly questionable but nice job
These methods may help you with other projects. Mill the angle singly in the main vise, there was no real need for the small vise to be used as well. If you wanted to machine 2 at a time then they could have been clamped in the main vise with their sides touching and clamped with the vise jaws over both. Using the small vise, it may have been easier to have it much flatter and cut the angles with the side of the cutter. You did not show any tempering, I may have missed that but without it, the clamps will be too brittle to use. Your aim was for a greater degree of toughness and durability rather than pure hardness. It may have been easier to offset the hole in the rings instead of turning the heads of the bolts eccentric. The screws have a nice straight knurl on the head to give a good fit in the hole without slipping. The drive hexagon would not be offset and stronger, plus a larger offset could be used if required. When using the tapered bases, the clamping face of the square part should be vertical to the base of the bed, you will get more contact area with the part instead of digging a line into it. You may be able to salvage the square blocks if you grind the mating angle on the base. The threads will align with both parts and the clamping face will be vertical. Using the fixture plate, the clamps should be directly opposite the fixed datum stop. As you show it, the clamps push against nothing. When using them it is an idea to make sure there is about a pitch of thread under the cam. This will prevent the cam locking down before it has clamped the part.
@@marley589 thanks very much, a lot of really great knowledge shared here. I did temper the parts btw. I just didn’t bother filming much of the heat treat process, I figured it was about as exciting as watching grass grow so I kinda just skipped over it lol.
Question: ASMR Good/Bad
Those little comparator vises are not square.
One of my favourite channels!
@@DavidR8 thanks so much!
Use a piece if ali tig wire to clamp unequal objects.. Also, you could (in theory!) use that sloped feature if you turned the base part upside down.. yes, youd habe to get creative when bolting that part down, but less hassle than remaking that portion if the project....
Coolant must be really scarce and spendy in that part of the world !! ... 🙄😂
Where can i buy from you?? DO you have web?? Thanks
@@roboevil1583 I don’t yet have a website set up, but you can email me directly for now. You can get my email right from my UA-cam channel profile. Thanks!
I bought a hydrolic surface grinder. The cylinder was bent. I repaired it and cant wait to use it. Manual Surface grinding is great. For the first 4 hours.
@@michaelwooda9444 haha, yep the novelty wears off fast… 😅 and congrats on the machine
For future reference, the stop on the vise is usually set on the left-hand side. Most prints are dimensioned from the left on the X and from the rear on the Y, as these are where machinists traditionally set their datums. I understand that it makes no difference for this project, but you had a choice, and I would get into the habit of referencing on the left as a preference when you have a choice.
@@tates11 thanks very much, that’s really great info and I didn’t know that. I appreciate it!
What's he building in there? - Tom Waits
That's nice work. Love the kiln. Although I suspected MITEE would end up looking less expensive by the time it was over.
@@bp3d106 thanks very much. And yeah the hot shot is super cool. Very fancy and way above my pay grade but I’m slowly learning to put it to good use 🙂
exchanging it for an allen key does give you a cheap way of never losing the wrench...all you need is a ten pack of allen keys then drill a hole in something near the lathe and drop the allen key into it...never lgets lost and you can do that for 10 more allen bolts instead of having 10 wrenches or wandering arounn wondering where you left the wrench this time....sometimes adjustable wrenches are as hard to find as 10mm ring spanners. Thanks for sharing
Yeah...super dangerous. Those haven't been approved since the 80s shop class
Either make them over or contact Joe Pieczynski and purchase a set of hold downs that he sells on his website. As I've seen others suggest, MAKE THEM OVER! MAKE THEM OVER!
Quality video mate.
Thanks very much, I appreciate it.
Where do you get one of those beautiful amazing wives? I thought that was only a fairytale.
@@davidwhiteford4936 I had to go all the way to Siberia. Worth it.
Manual grinding sucks the life out of a fella. Props for some good looking part mate.
@@DavidR8 yeah it is absolutely brutal. I couldn’t help but think of the men who came before me and ran these machines all day every day for a living, making our industrialized world for us. A lot of time for the mind to wander I guess haha. Thanks very much btw, and thanks for watching.
I was thinking you were going to make a mechanism similiar to a bicycle seat post clamp with a built in small thumb wheel maybe, instead of trading a wrench for an allen key. Now I’m in my head thinking about how to design one for my lathe!
@@robertmason8341 yeah that’s why I haven’t made more of these, didn’t really fix the issue just traded for a different one. The bicycle clamp is a really cool idea though… 🤔
Awesome tools great
@@patrickmazzone9066 thanks very much
thanks for your responce
as always, i am enjoying your work, thanks again! 😀👍
@@gworx-247 thanks very much for watching 🙂
I screamed at the screen as loud as I could when I saw you drilling and tapping perpendicular to the bottom of the part but you just wouldn't listen, lol. If you put a piece of copper wire between the floating vise jaw and the parts you would have got away with doing two pieces at once. The copper wire conforms to the parts and distributes the clamping force. A piece of ground wire from some 3 strand house wire works fine. Some people do this when squaring up stock if the surface facing the floating jaw has not been machined yet to insure even clamping. All in all another great video!! EDIT: Guess I should have read the comment below before giving you the wire tip, lol.
@@yertelt5570 haha thanks for trying at least, must have had my headphones on 😉
Years ago I made a larger set of cam-lock clamps for the milling machine with 1/2" socket head capscrew eccentrics and cold-rolled C1045 rounds for jaws. They are most useful for holding work directly on the mill table in the fashion of a conventional two-piece vise. They can be used with either odd-shaped material or already squared up stock, with or without spacers underneath. The screws just engage nuts in the T-slots. I didn't harden the parts of the clamps. Which reminds me - thanks for showing your Hot Shot oven. Want to know what Santa brought me? Well, it wasn't one of those. . .
@@Dogfather66227 yeah I’m thinking of making a set for the mill table as well. And I am definitely spoiled, my wife is amazing. I wouldn’t even have this channel without her, she believes in me even when I don’t!

@@motorbreath22 thanks very much for watching!
This way of filming should be combined with that annoying modern music
Nice job. Thx for the vid.
@@Warped65er thanks very much, and thanks for watching!
Clamp a piece of aluminum tig wire between vise and part. It will smash when clamped and take up the thickness difference. Can do several at a time that way
Or that piece of Romex laying on the floor behind the lathe.
@@justinsturgeon1 very good call, will keep that in mind for the next time. Thanks for watching btw!
Perfect timing, I just finished a rotary table fixture plate but have no hardware to clamp stuff to the table besides some screws.
@@ToBeeOrNotToBeHoney nice, I hope these work out for you!
Can you make some new movable pieces with an angle to match the angle on the toe clamp bottoms? And yes grinding is a chore but the results look 👌
@@caseytailfly hmm, yeah I guess that would work. But either way I’d be remaking something and I was ready to put this one to bed. I’ll probably remake them soon though so it works as intended. And yeah, the results are definitely worth it 👍 thanks for watching btw!
You know I think I just saw the answer to clamping both parts in the vise at the same time on Blondihacks. She used a piece of paper on one part. That way the moveable jaw twists a little and holds both parts tight. I haven’t tried this yet but if it works it would be a great tip to use.
Post the full grinding video so people can watch it to fall asleep lol
I had the same feeling when you clamped them in the vice 😁
