There is a special type of cast iron to make pistion rings out of I think it is gray cast iron

Why is that lathe shaking all over the place? I have an Atlas as well, and it doesn't shake like that unless you're trying to cut something all the way out at 10 inches...

The sand I use I went to the local iron foundry and ask if they would sell me some sand. They said there is a shovel take all I want for free. I got all I needed to last the rest of my life and gave the foreman $50 and said take your wife out to dinner. I have had a good relationship with them ever since. I've done a lot of machining for them. I'm 75 now so don't do much casting now.

Great job🎉

😎😎😎😎

Ill add what i can't find the proof that engines haven't changed but have become more efficient with engines so like anything cant become perfect because engineering even mother nature does

more videos please! great content

I followed all of the engine build to this point. Looking forward to more of these videos. Thanks.

Very interesting. I like your style. Making do with what you have. Following the engine build. Nice work

Stoneware clay? Idk, i was a ceramics major for a couple years and am screwing with metals now and feel those skills should accomodate making a mold...

Tightly wrap the outer diameter of the casting with a bicycle inner tube. really helps with resonance.

Clupet type rings would of worked... 6 years later lol. Hope you are well, I noticed you haven't posted in a long time.

Good job

Man, I miss this channel.

Just found your channel and Subscribed. Nice work

Using cutting fluid gives a better finish, increases cutter life, reduces heat build up and noise level.

Uh, ferrosilicon? Added just before pouring…

Are those sodium silicate cores? For Iron, one wants some sugar to help the sand break down - that, or use “baked cores” which are cooked in a *core oven…* (This is why they were so common in the auto industry, I’ll bet) Secondly, did you add sea-coal? (Didn’t look like it.) Sea-coal helps with cast iron having a “better” surface finish. Finally, you might add a small amount of powdered charcoal or metallurgical coke (roasted coal) to your crucible to help reduce some of the “slag loss.”

FYI, Silica sand is VERY harmful if breathed in. It's small particle of glass, and once in your lungs it's there to stay.

Rip died too young

Pareceu me complicada

Love from India

Thanks to u work

Great

i dont like you green sand. it looks very fatty

Man. Tell me what material is used to hold molten iron in a furnace ？

very goog my bro

superb! you explained it amazingly!

If you could get some scrap stone kitchen worktop, this can work better because you have weight to help you. Great videos man😊.

Thanks allot have a UA-cam channel and build in this moment a stream generator for my family. Maybe you will take a look on my channel because i have done a small biogas plant what I like to use to run a stream generator. Thanks again for your help.

The fact that he couldn't anticipate the sand paper sliding # 1 is wild! # 2 him actually thinking that removing the sheet of paper out from underneath it would fix the problem tends to make me think he is trolling lol. I mean seriously? It's gotta be a joke

Thanks for taking the time to share. This is awesome!

Is it waste oil?

Baby come back, you can blame it all on me.

Missing your content. Hope you're doing well!

So where is the engine? I was actually hoping to find a guy that made a real diy engine but you just abandoned everyone

hello how do you melt iron?

thank you man i liked this video

1. it is very common among companies and repair shops that actually know how to weld cast iron. 2. It is absolutely THE BEST method of repairing cast iron.

Lava hand soap does a good job with cast iron dust on your hands .

I use sodium silicate for making cores for aluminum casting. I found that a pressure washer removes the cores with almost no work.

Hello, how do I contact the presenter of this content.

Best explanation yet

Great vid I got a much better understanding

Is that al or fe?

I leave 0.005 too 0.007 for finishing hone with casting for harley cylinder , also you can slow you lathe rpm down another 50 60 rpm will help with chatter , but I use a 1/64 radius end on my tool insert

Try travlers tool in NY they should have that insert
