Look at your video at around the 5:10 area when you put the first chamber in, you will see your part tilt down close to 1/16". either your vice wasn't tight enough or the vice jaws were cock a bite. Put something in the open of the vice jaws the same width of the jaws griping the part your working on. This way the vice will close squarely.

When you're trying to hit the CENTER of a round . . . you only have to KNOW just ONE "EDGE" - since you have NO DOUBT got some SLOP / BACKLASH in the cross feed screw , it will NEGATE the second edge being indicated - 'Hope that doesn't sound CoNfUsInG ! * If you move the cross feed in opposing directions with the INDICATOR against the vise , you'll see how much backlash you have by watching the NEEDLE as it begins to move . There are many ways to hit CENTER ! You can only rely on your DIALS , if you remove all the backlash , BEFORE dialing in to hit center ! Got it to work , that's what counts - - - you didn't KILL the project by making SCRAP ! "TA DA " !

Excellent fix, Kimber. It'll last for years now. Cheers Tony

Great job repairing that lamp Kimber

👍👍👍👍👍👍😉😉

An excellent repair sir! Phil

Good to see you keeping busy Kimber. Cheers from downunder mate 👍

The left and right thread on the same bar is very cool. The drift looks great

👍👍👍👍😉😉😉😉

I'm half way through the vid - . . . What wilkbild said . . . AND . . . * If you want a better finish , cut down your feed rate - .006 per rev is pretty coarse ! ( .006 is fine for ROUGHING CUTS) . . . I'm guessing that your tool is not quite 'on center height' . . . Your dial should be right on the money ! You replaced the cross feed screw , & NUT ! ** Also : when you measure a longer cut , it's PRUDENT to measure each end , and center - to make sure you're not cutting a TAPER ! > > > BACK TO THE SHOW > > > THREAD DEPTH = is ALWAYS "HALF of the difference between the major & minor diameters . . . ( Subtract the minor from major diameter , & divide by 2 . ) > > > > Well , you managed to make a loose threaded 'thingy' !

At 16.27 you had .4944, shooting for .500, that is a little more half a thousand off. more like.0055 off.

This was great to watch, I must learn how to use threading

I would not worry about time of your videos. Instead work on telling the story. Like I just got a tool and need to set it up and try it out so let's see how it goes. Instead of just jumping in to drilling a hole. We have know idea of why you are doing it for. Bring us along on your journey. I know you where a truck driver. To now self taught hobby machinist. That's cool. That's my 2 penny's worth. Hope it helps

We must learn about thread cutting, I am always impressed seeing you do it

nice one Kimber👍👍😉😉 atb Kev

spot on Kimber👍👍 atb Kev

Kimberzelik -- Do you have a Four Jaw Chuck ??? --- Jim

Is it more rigid ? I can't see the compound as being a problem at all. Unless you are pre-setting tools with the DRO. -Doozer

my lathe uses a D1-5 mount, and I did not think you could put a D1-5 chuck on a D1-6 spindle shows what I know!! Learn some thing new every day. Thanks

We would like to get a knurling tool, yours looks like a great kit with some very good information. This looks like a fun project

I was wondering why no tail stock support. Made me jump out of my chair when that first thread cycle decided to climb over the cutting tool. 😢

I made the knurling tool from Hemingway kits this past spring, and nothing was finished had to do all the radius milling. I learned alot and it works great. Just remember for the reamed holes do not drill them to size on the print go 1/64 under size then ream them out. Good luck!

Good day Sir, You are Truly A Master Machinist My friend 😇👍🧐👌Be Well Cheers 🍻🍻

Kimberzelik -- Your skills are improving . Keep up the good work. -- Jim

Nicely done Kimber atb👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Kev

Kimber how much thicker is the new plate from the old one?

Great shoutouts, the UA-cam community is great. Thanks for the mention

Arco @outlawedge is a hell of a guy! He took my under his wing when I first started my youtube channel and has helped me and supported my efforts and pushed me to go further! Awesome friend ! I subscribed to your channel this evening.

I'm with you Kimber on these subjects.... Well said.......Cheers Tony

Sweet! --Doozer

Hi, I'm the crazy guy that dropped off the Hendey lathe at Arco's last weekend, but for the record, I'm not the guy that tore it apart... I'm the middle man. Long story, but I didn't have space or time and i know Arco like old vintage machines and friends, and i'm vintage. Arco is one of the best guys someone could meet. It was a 15 hour drive for me and worth every minute just to see him and Heidi. He had his annual car show and invited me to be a judge. Maybe you've already seen some of his videos. I'll be posting some from my channel too. He's so nice i call him Arco Angel. That man would do anything to help someone. We communicate almost everyday. We both build cars, in fact we're both building sheet metal cars from scratch right now. Anyway, thanks for helping Arco. He will get that thing together and running. I enjoyed your video and subbed you tonight. I like machines and will be following you. I have a knee mill in my shop. It's a Bridgeport knock off and does most things I need to do. Lots of fixture building for my car right now. Anyway, this is too long, but Arco is worth spending a lot of time on! 🙂

*_Why aren't you posting the links to these channels in the description? This is the second time, no link._*

Great job on the jaws. It is a great idea to make the jaws now rather than wait until you need the vice

I'm not sure if that is a keyed type chuck or key-less chuck your using, but if it's a keyless you don't tap with them. They are only self tightening in one direction, when you reverse rotation they will tend to open up. You tap with a key type chuck. Personally I don't power tap, I leave that to the more experienced guys. I think you learn more with hand tapping, there is a definite "feel" to it, especially when you get into the smaller sizes.

👍👍👍😉 O&O Kev

Kimber you may want to check the runout on that drill chuck

This is an interesting project. We always raise the knee but I have no idea if it is better than using the quill

So, you're using indicator to control cross slide movement cause you don't trust cheap Chinese lathe's accurasy. Am I right?

I believe you'd be a lot better served if you use the plastic face of the hammer rather than the rubber face, just bounce on that face. Best would be a lead hammer, no bounce there, or at least a dead blow hammer, basically the same thing.

Never a good time when your work is moving on you! 😂

Tell a buddy, bring a friend! 👍

Nice one Kimber.....Cheers Tony

The footage was very cool

That's a decent looking lathe. Note how big the base is on the tailstock, unlike the ridiculous mini lathes that have out of proportion center heights to bed width. A well proportioned lathe will have a minimum bed width that is 1.5 times larger than the center height.

That was a teaser .. ...
