Nice 👍🏽
Nice haul of cutters
Nice!
I look forward to watching your property develop!
Cześć. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
I like it!
What brand and model was it? Looks beefy. Jealous. My Astra Elite AR5-E is missing the still grinding attachment, but otherwise complete. Gives me ideas to fabricobble something together. Thank you
Just get a good rotary phase converter. Screw the VFD junk.
@@MyLilMule I love my VFD's, RPC's are great options but the cheap chinese VFD's have worked out really well for me
Congratulations
That my friend is super awesome
Just a bit of work ahead of you there ! Cheers 👍
@@swanvalleymachineshop Just a little
Good stuff man! Keep it up!
Nice to hear from you
😢 I'm sorry for your loss but, I'm happy you can go on. I'm just shocked that there's no way to restore the bearing surface on the little power hacksaw, are you sure?
I enjoyed how u drilled with the k and t...i don't have a spindle mill and have been trying to do better with drilling on my 2k. Can u tell me what your speeds and feeds were for the drilling operation?
I sharp my blades with a small diamond file. Takes like 2 to 5 minutes. Depending on the number of teeth.
A much better machine than the Weldanpower 150 AC portable. Might qualify as an antique now. Are parts for the welder half still supported by Lincoln? AL B.
You sure you want to take that entire thing apart? Getting it back together really squared up and within tolerance where it'll be useable seems like a monumental task. It's a 20 ton machine, a crane that picks that isn't that expensive.
Absolutely. I have to remove the chuck to repair the bearings and that requires the machine to be about 3' off the ground. These machines were designed to come apart and be transported in pieces, and squaring it up is pretty easy (everything has jacking bolts for adjustment)
@@hiddenworldforge374 Well i look forward to seeing that process, best of luck to you Sir!
@@PiFe00 Thank you! It's not gonna be easy but that's why it's fun
He will get it back together no problem, he knows machines
Big fun!
That's a hunk of steel, good luck getting it moved...
Excellent video! I agree on everything except lift system. I am using power hacksaw without lift non stop and it works good.
That sheetmetal looks like galvaneel. We built truck service bodies with that stuff. Very expensive. AL B.
Holy shit, you a billion or what bro?
Nah lol, it's only 100' wide
Perr's like a kitten...
Adam is a good dude, nice saw..
Keep at it buddy she'll be screaming
Oh she screams lol
But you won’t show the button?
I should make a video better explaining the placement but you can see the button
@@hiddenworldforge374 yeah can you tell I’m not a car/truck guy 😆
@@tamachining Lol I just hold the steering wheel and turn wrenches every once in a while
@@hiddenworldforge374 Sounds easy enough
Good luck man...
I'm just hoping I don't snap a U joint
Hopefully it serves you well
Yes new vid
I like all the widows, daylight is best for machining. That tongue and grove will clean up well, and make nice walls and ceiling. it will hide insulation and wires. There is a product called "Flame Stop II", can be applied by brush, and is relatively clear for staining. If the T&G is oriented horizontally, it will follow the curve of the structure and look nice. Some of those wooden doors will come in handy somewhere. I saw a nice wood stove, hope you can keep it. If you have room on your property, you should keeps lots of it. You can throw it away later, or trade it. I love junk!
Awesome use of the rack
I am glad you got it. Yuchol told me about that machine about 2 years ago. Obviously me being on the east coast the shipping costs did not make it worth purchasing. I got lucky and found my HBM last July in Mississippi.
Jesus a 14x40 dog 🐕 I'll bet she hits 16x60 soon 😊
Oh yea, she isn't even a year old yet. Still got some growing to do lol
Thats a lot of iron for $50
Another aprentice! Nice!
Very, very cool.
Does the blower always need to be on?
Yes
A good source of chips is aluminum oxide abrasives, they come in a variety of shapes, 1" balls, 1" cones, truncated cones, etc., very inexpensive, They dont melt until they reach 3,750° F
Thank you, that's good to know!
It’s really coming along
The scrap will cushion the cost, also plan heating and cooling now, I don't know how many shops I've seen rendered useless for large parts of the year because they were too hot or cold to work in.
Looks like a big project. Best wishes.
Nice addition to your shop The 31 is a little borer it weighs 14k if its the standard orientation, so you werent too over the capacity Nice you got a line bar with it, lucky man The plate was added later, theres a 4 hole mount on the spindle face, clean all that goop off the spindle bar, before you run it back in. That machine will have bronze spindle bearings so it wont ever bore a truly round hole the clutch will be asbestos lined so if you are taking it completely apart use a respirator If you send lucas the serial they can get you some info on the exact machine, including build date and some extremely basic manuals
Thank you, I knew the plate was an add on. I'm debating trying to swap out the bronze bearings for taper roller bearings (I've heard of others doing that- mostly for higher speeds). For now I'll run it as-is, the rest of the machine is very, very worn out so I may just replace it with a newer/nicer HBM in the future.
@@hiddenworldforge374 I've done a swap from bronze bearings to tapered roller bearings before on a Lucas 41, It was rather involved but not impossible. Idk if I'd suggest it, but it certainly can work. If you do buy a newer borer, if you can find a 41b or a small TOS h63 I think you'd be set. Until then I am sure what you've got can be made to work. The 31s aren't bad machines, they atleast have Rapid traverse in All axis. I used to own a 21, which was the series before the 31, it only had rapid traverse on headstock up and down and no feed for the table in and out. 31 is way better than that, even if it's got a few miles on it
@@procyonia3654 Absolutely, it's in no way a bad machine. Whether I upgrade depends on how much use I truly get out of it, but for now it's a perfect machine for me. I'll have to make a lot of new parts for it before I upgrade the bearings
