wonderful. It took me a long time to recover from the accident. It haunts me but I overcame it because of passion. I now have products as gifts. love forever.
I made a steady rest for my old Atlas lathe using the outer ring from an old harmonic balancer off a car engine. It worked like a champ. Didn't even have to bore it. It was plenty big enough as it was. I just made the lower half and the mounting plate and clamp.
The Steady Rest turned out Great 👍 really nice build. Enjoyed the Video. I may try to make one for my Lathe like yours. I really like the way it turned out. Thanks
Enjoyed the vlog young man. One suggestion. I've been a machinist a long time PLEASE when you are running those machines take the gloves off! This is a serious safety hazard! I've seen terrible things happen to guys wearing gloves while operating machines. Just about a year ago one of my friends lost 3 fingers on his right hand. I carried his fingers to the ambulance in his glove! Keep up the good work but please be careful!
@@yak-machining No harm intended I think you are very talented I just want to see you keep your hands and fingers. I hope you have a long career as a machinist.

Note: on 6:37 i wrote that this lathe was made between 1920-1930 which could be false, i think this lathe might be even older, probably between 1880 - 1910 What do you guys think, how old do you think this machine is?
Of course, you know I already said I do not ever use gloves at my turning machines; however, I wanted to say you really built a very nice steady rest...and great outcome on that piece....Ciao
Nice rest you did, it looks great. Not everybody in this world is born with expertise in weldering, but you do a working job, you just can try it more times, and learn a bit more. Congratulations, it takes my like.
Must be chilly! “Manual Knurling!!!” Oh my. Keep up the great work! Glad you had someone else weld this time 😜. There are plenty of good welding tips and tricks here on the UA-cam. Practice, practice, practice my man, you’ll get it. It’s just like anything else. Epoxy putty to cover up the welds!!!!😂😂 oh man. You’ll get it, just takes time. Proper welder settings and equipment are key. IE....type of wire, speeds, gas, voltage, etc etc.
Hi, I loved this steady rest, it looks great and I liked your methods, So a couple of suggestions if I may . Consider splitting the ring horizontally with a hinge at one side and a locking mechanism on the other to increase your stock size. And welding wise, Ditch the stick welding and go for MIG, it's easier and structurally solid, grind chamfers on all your joints for better weld penetration. And clamp your components in place wherever possible. All that aside, really well done.
Really appreciate your suggestions. But i sold the lathe and all the equipment. I originally planned to split it but i thought that i would ruin it without and it seemed hard for me to do it.
I am not a machinist but I love these tool making videos. One thing I am is a pretty good welder. Please try tig on your tool projects. Once you master tig welding you will use it exclusively on you projects. It is clean neat and strong. We all love mig and sometimes you just need to stick weld something. But, please consider tig welding for tools. Besides ,it is an excellent skill to master and another great option for making “things”. Someday I hope to be able to make a nice center rest like yours.
l also make things for my 100 year old lathe using only the lathe. Nice steady rest Looks great!!!. I made a milling attachment for mine that mounts a three inch vise.
You have earned yourself a subscriber,im making a steady soon too,and i needed ideas,this is the best concept i have seen so far,but i will make mine in a different way, because i would like to make it so you can open the top,for better repeatebility. Greetings from Hungary!
I hope yours turn out even better haha. The function where you can open it , was not a option for me because i forget about it and then it was already too late 😂 But i hope you make a video too
Very good job. I also made similar but a moving lathe steady for tool rest 30 years ago. So you can e.g. cut pieces very quickly without stopping the chuck.
You do some lovely work, and the lathe is a beauty aswell! I am most glad someone like you picked her up instead of her ending up in the trash eventually, scrapped and turned into shit... At least given its price that is what i think the previous owner intended with it sooner or later... I rescued a few machines myself from the shredder... One 70+ year old lathe among them... They are if treated well and given some time a 100x better than any modern nonsense you can buy for ridiculous prices... Even if you have to send them to have them reground, or if you have time and some equipment, hand scrape them to micron accuracy... A gorgeous machine and well done is all i can say! Keep her well in care, and make some way covers to prevent wanton chaos and damage from chips getting crushed under the sliding components...
Thank you for this lovely comment. I recently picked up another lathe wich is made from the 1919 Magdeburg and has alot of modern features like a gearbox, v-ways, lead screw, feed screw and such. Currently i am in the last steps of finishing the restoration
@@yak-machining Aah, well, how could i not post a nice comment at such nicely machined components and a good work on beautiful machinery...

love it man great job.... Welding.... just Make a Molten Puddle 1st then Slow Waaaay Down on your travel speed during your pass. After this the "Feel" will come to you.
Thank you :) Its still a little struggle for me to change the settings on the welding machine on the right speed and amp, but i will learn Stick welding first
For welding, switch to imperial for a while. Your welds are too cold. 1/8 inch rod gets 125 amps for the .125 inch rod. One inch of rod is 1 inch of weld so don’t move too fast. Drag your rod at a 45 degree angle. It should sound like bacon frying. For clean steel use 6013 rod which is a mild steel 60 thousand psi yield all position rod, but try to only flat weld to start. If that was MIG then lead rather than drag your wire. For stick SMAW you could use a 7014 or 7024 drag rod but it needs 50 to 100 amp more current, but it makes the welding stupid simple at the cost of more heat than you want for a machined part. Do not weld without protecting eyes, exposed skin or without good ventilation. Chip welds with eye protection. Cheers & good welding.
@@yak-machining You need pratice pieces of metal to set machine. Run stingers till you get the hange of it. Quality welding isn't as easy as it looks, that's why there is a 4 year apprenticeship to become a journeyman Welder.
Dang dude, I see that you’re wearing a heavy coat for permafrost freeze 🥶 your butt off location. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed your video. Working in those freezing conditions just means that you are a badass in my book.
Verry nice. Just one tip, in stead of turning the whole center into chips, I would have spent some time to grind a tool that will cut out the center (trepanning) It would have saved you some time and you would have had some usefull steel left as a bonus.
saubere Arbeit! denke du sprichst deutsch (your dads gesäß xD) bin seit 20 jahren Dreher. wenn ich dir nen tipp geben darf, würde ich dir empfehlen dir als alternative zu den Rollen noch einen Satz Stößel mit HOLZSPITZEN zu machen. Ja HOLZ!!! einfaches, stinknormales weiches HOLZ. Rollen machen eigentlich nur bei sehr großen Werkstückgewichten Sinn. Der große Nachteil von Rollen ist, dass sich Späne zwischen Rolle und Werkstück klemmen können und dir die Oberfläche zerstören können. der große Vorteil von Holz ist, dass du es in Öl tränken kannst und es sich laufend von innen heraus selbst schmiert, kaum verschleiß, glaubt man kaum, is aber so! Ansonsten weiter so :)
When you have that much material to remove it would have been far better, faster and less wasteful to chain drill inside the diameter you wanted then either hacksaw between the drilled holes or, alternatively, treppan the section (or a combination of both) I've even used a trim router with a small diameter carbide end mill mounted on tool-post without trouble It was spinning a bit fast (around 20,000rpm) so wore out the cutter after about 37 inches of cutting but lasted much longer than expected for a $3.00 tool bit
Enjoyed watching you machine your project. If I may, please look into the tail-stock alignment. I believe the tailstock is sitting low. This condition can be corrected by shimming. I believe Mr. Pete has a video on how this is done.
Nice job! Just one thing. Dealing with lathes and using these kind of gloves is really dangerous. Better to use a latex type because in case of snagging they will just break and let your hands free.
Don't use any gloves...PERIOD. Even a latex glove snagged could freak you out just enough to cause you to react in a Negative way causing your reflex to hurt or kill you depending on the situation. Just my 1 cent worth... Otherwise, I wish him the best in all he creates on UA-cam....
@@yak-machining was a fully equipped shop with both VERY large and smaller (average) size equipment... at a glance, you'd swear your steady and mine were the same! sure caught my eye...lol
If I ask a drug addict before his next fix to weld, it would be better than yours 🤣, just a nightmare. But, your machining skills and determination are the ones that count. Welding takes time to learn and also many tips here and there. I love your steady rest.
@@yak-machining When you said that you were going to use like Bondo to cover the bad welds I was like, don't worry bud, UA-cam is full of them. But damn, after the Bondo cover I was like: he was pretty serious about this 😱🤣. -- Try watching some videos on how to make thick lines, you'll love it. And will help you learn about warping when putting too much heat, penetration, prep the materials, etc.
Hello. My understanding is , not ideal to drag the tool backward over the surface you cut. I think you're meant to back away reverse the tool to the starting point and reset for the next cut? (you follow me?) slop in the ways on the cross slide shows a tendancy to improve the depth of cut when you pull out like you're having a shag. Plus why not thread those big pilots into the ring instead of welding? It occurs to me you could retain some accuracy without introducing heat to the pieces. In the detail you made a decent support but NOT the welding. I would be terrified of the thing ( welding is a job I trained to do ). A little weld is quite strong fortunately but . The weld pool must be uniform in both bits being joined. Usually a side to side weaving motion is the answer but very slight to the side of the join then to other ... tic toc tic toc tic toc you see? Use plenty of amps. And practice , practice , practice first. Your welds were too cold and result called bird shit. Superficial, sitting on surface. Thats a tutorial on welding to start with. I don't think "knead it" is any good!!!!!!!! NO GOOD! For a novice very good steady you build and it has qualities far greater than a 100 year old lathe. "This" is intended to be encouraging , though words can come across from different culture in a slighted context. I come from a blunt culture. My speech can sometimes sound rude & offensive ? Be certain I am admiring the bulk of the job!
I agree.. That steady rest should work for light duty work, but I would not trust it for any fine detail machining.. I admire his ambition to make his own tooling, still with machining, there needs to be more attention to tolerances..
Hi Yak when you use your lathe you should use dial caliper to adjust the metal that you turning I'm seeing your chuck running out of cue you may have bearing problems in the chuck housing . The procedure is thus place metal in chuck loosely using the dial caliper gauge mounted on a magnet set dial to zero turn the chuck by hand and if off zero adjust a few times when satisfied turn the chuck and the tip of the dial gauge it should read zero over 360 degree turn .
Yeah i already have a dial indicator. The main problem are these old Bronze bearings, they are very worn out and not precise anymore. So did i a upgrade and built completly a new spindle out of scratch with angular contact ball bearings and roller bearings. Its very very rigid now and the important thing is , that it is more precise than the old spindle.
For learning how to weld I recommend learning in person from somebody instead of a video so then the person can give you feedback. Welding is mostly just practice once you get a good pattern down. Half moon weave back and forth slowly moving forward. From your welds it looks like you need higher wire speed, and a little more heat can't hurt. Just be careful when welding machines prices so they don't warp. Possibly think of investing in a weld clamping table to minimize warp on machined parts?
Yeah its something i have to learn. My dad is a very good welder but didnt had time to learn from him, maybe someday. I think i should try stick welding first, because in this Video i used a mig welding machine
@@yak-machining Stick is a easier to learn, which is good for beginners. However, while it is much stronger than mig because of how hot it can get (and therefore more penetration), it also causes much greater warp in parts. Still, it is much cheaper than mig to run!
How in hell did you get such a lathe for 150euro, you lucky bastard. In my area you cant find a lathe under 600 in any sort of good condition. Anyway cool build.
Hehe 😜 first the price was at 300, but my dad bargained it down to 150€. But the condition was pretty bad, rusty, worn out etc., so i had to refurbish it
Welding is purely practice - as you have your Dad to show you the basics. Have you kept an idea of the number of hours this has kept you off the streets and out of the Pub? You certainly have more patience than me for the manual knurling.. Altogether a great project and and great outcome...
You could have done straight knerling and cut it on the lathe by putting a threading tool on its side and moving the carriage to make the cuts, just rotate the chuck by hand for each cut.. it's slow but it works better than free handing with a file
Отличная работа! Но хочу дать совет - одень на подшипники кольца. Иначе внешние обоймы подшипников будут часто лопаться. Особенно при центрировании труб.
Совет отличный, согласен. Но вот на счёт момента ,когда больший риск что подшипник разворотит - тут скорее другие факторы. + если смазаны- момент центровки как раз таки не должны почувствовать... Тут скорее длительная работа, давление заставит обойму лопнуть... Перегрев туда же.
@@mihaeks1381 Я не знаю с чем это связано, но точно не со смазкой и не с перегревом. Да и длительная работа не влияет, внешняя обойма лопает быстро, максимум пару минут.
My machine is the same structure as yours but mine is incomplate, I would be interested in the position and module of the related gears of the transverse machine feed . thanks please if you can answer my question . thx again

Do not weld without protecting eyes, exposed skin or without good ventilation. Chip welds with eye protection. Cheers & good welding.
@@yak-machining You need pratice pieces of metal to set machine. Run stingers till you get the hange of it. Quality welding isn't as easy as it looks, that's why there is a 4 year apprenticeship to become a journeyman Welder.
Bom, gostei muito dessa luneta... parabéns!!!
Ingenious and beautiful
Thank you :)
Cute job🥰👌👍😁
I've been a machinist also all my life and I never wear gloves, nor rings, nor scarfs, nor anything else that can possibly remove fingers.
Waw is amazing the work you do, congratulation.
Very good job, using minimal equipment .
I would make a cutter and cut through the workpiece on both sides. And the chips would be smaller and we would get another blank for other purposes.
Good job 👌🏻👌🏻👏👏
Acabei gostando da ricartilhagem feita com o limatão,,, perfeita simetria ...
Nice work. I am going to be making one in a few months. This was very helpful.
Danke dir
Dang dude, I see that you’re wearing a heavy coat for permafrost freeze 🥶 your butt off location. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed your video. Working in those freezing conditions just means that you are a badass in my book.
My best friend, Excellent video! Keep it up! I had to see the full video, as always, Keep it up! +thumb up3!
Thank you
I have a lathe from the 20s not quite as big as yours but I love it
Verry nice. Just one tip, in stead of turning the whole center into chips, I would have spent some time to grind a tool that will cut out the center (trepanning) It would have saved you some time and you would have had some usefull steel left as a bonus.
good job.!! Perhabs your welding-experience can be increased. Daddy learned welding at "Deutsche Bundesbahn". And that was good for "heavy metall"😇
saubere Arbeit!
denke du sprichst deutsch (your dads gesäß xD)
bin seit 20 jahren Dreher. wenn ich dir nen tipp geben darf, würde ich dir empfehlen dir als alternative zu den Rollen noch einen Satz Stößel mit HOLZSPITZEN zu machen. Ja HOLZ!!! einfaches, stinknormales weiches HOLZ.
Rollen machen eigentlich nur bei sehr großen Werkstückgewichten Sinn.
Der große Nachteil von Rollen ist, dass sich Späne zwischen Rolle und Werkstück klemmen können und dir die Oberfläche zerstören können.
der große Vorteil von Holz ist, dass du es in Öl tränken kannst und es sich laufend von innen heraus selbst schmiert, kaum verschleiß, glaubt man kaum, is aber so!
Ansonsten weiter so :)
When you have that much material to remove it would have been far better, faster and less wasteful to chain drill inside the diameter you wanted then either hacksaw between the drilled holes or, alternatively, treppan the section (or a combination of both)
I've even used a trim router with a small diameter carbide end mill mounted on tool-post without trouble
It was spinning a bit fast (around 20,000rpm) so wore out the cutter after about 37 inches of cutting but lasted much longer than expected for a $3.00 tool bit
wery show congratulaitiom goooood
Enjoyed watching you machine your project. If I may, please look into the tail-stock alignment. I believe the tailstock is sitting low. This condition can be corrected by shimming. I believe Mr. Pete has a video on how this is done.
Thank you, the lathe has since been sold but will check it on my "new" lathe
i noticed that also
Very nice
Nice job!
Just one thing. Dealing with lathes and using these kind of gloves is really dangerous. Better to use a latex type because in case of snagging they will just break and let your hands free.
Don't use any gloves...PERIOD. Even a latex glove snagged could freak you out just enough to cause you to react in a Negative way causing your reflex to hurt or kill you depending on the situation. Just my 1 cent worth... Otherwise, I wish him the best in all he creates on UA-cam....
Thanks to all for the shared knowledge, I'm sure a rubber glove can still spook you too
42:00 du hast Axialnadellager verbaut, Kraftaufnahme gesichert, setze drei Rändelrollen ein und du musst nicht mehr feilen😊
Deine Kommentare sind die besten😂 alles längst Geschichte da ich das Hobby und die ganzen Sachen aufgegeben habe
brings back memories...made one exactly like this in 1974 in my apprenticeship
Only with a lathe or with a mill?
@@yak-machining was a fully equipped shop with both VERY large and smaller (average) size equipment...
at a glance, you'd swear your steady and mine were the same!
sure caught my eye...lol
Perfect
Woww very precise in making the workpiece retainer on the lathe, thank you my teacher waiting for the next video 🙏 greetings from Indonesia 🙏
Thank you very much, im still learning.
If I ask a drug addict before his next fix to weld, it would be better than yours 🤣, just a nightmare. But, your machining skills and determination are the ones that count. Welding takes time to learn and also many tips here and there. I love your steady rest.
I still can't weld 🤣🤣🤣 but thank you
@@yak-machining When you said that you were going to use like Bondo to cover the bad welds I was like, don't worry bud, UA-cam is full of them. But damn, after the Bondo cover I was like: he was pretty serious about this 😱🤣. -- Try watching some videos on how to make thick lines, you'll love it. And will help you learn about warping when putting too much heat, penetration, prep the materials, etc.
Hello. My understanding is , not ideal to drag the tool backward over the surface you cut. I think you're meant to back away reverse the tool to the starting point and reset for the next cut? (you follow me?) slop in the ways on the cross slide shows a tendancy to improve the depth of cut when you pull out like you're having a shag. Plus why not thread those big pilots into the ring instead of welding? It occurs to me you could retain some accuracy without introducing heat to the pieces.
In the detail you made a decent support but NOT the welding. I would be terrified of the thing ( welding is a job I trained to do ). A little weld is quite strong fortunately but . The weld pool must be uniform in both bits being joined. Usually a side to side weaving motion is the answer but very slight to the side of the join then to other ... tic toc tic toc tic toc you see? Use plenty of amps. And practice , practice , practice first. Your welds were too cold and result called bird shit. Superficial, sitting on surface. Thats a tutorial on welding to start with. I don't think "knead it" is any good!!!!!!!! NO GOOD!
For a novice very good steady you build and it has qualities far greater than a 100 year old lathe. "This" is intended to be encouraging , though words can come across from different culture in a slighted context. I come from a blunt culture. My speech can sometimes sound rude & offensive ? Be certain I am admiring the bulk of the job!
I agree.. That steady rest should work for light duty work, but I would not trust it for any fine detail machining.. I admire his ambition to make his own tooling, still with machining, there needs to be more attention to tolerances..
Hi Yak when you use your lathe you should use dial caliper to adjust the metal that you turning I'm seeing your chuck running out of cue you may have bearing problems in the chuck housing . The procedure is thus place metal in chuck loosely using the dial caliper gauge mounted on a magnet set dial to zero turn the chuck by hand and if off zero adjust a few times when satisfied turn the chuck and the tip of the dial gauge it should read zero over 360 degree turn .
Yeah i already have a dial indicator. The main problem are these old Bronze bearings, they are very worn out and not precise anymore.
So did i a upgrade and built completly a new spindle out of scratch with angular contact ball bearings and roller bearings.
Its very very rigid now and the important thing is , that it is more precise than the old spindle.
15:52 knock knock joke: it’s me I wanne built a lathe steady 😂😂😂
For learning how to weld I recommend learning in person from somebody instead of a video so then the person can give you feedback. Welding is mostly just practice once you get a good pattern down. Half moon weave back and forth slowly moving forward. From your welds it looks like you need higher wire speed, and a little more heat can't hurt. Just be careful when welding machines prices so they don't warp. Possibly think of investing in a weld clamping table to minimize warp on machined parts?
Yeah its something i have to learn.
My dad is a very good welder but didnt had time to learn from him, maybe someday.
I think i should try stick welding first, because in this Video i used a mig welding machine
@@yak-machining Stick is a easier to learn, which is good for beginners. However, while it is much stronger than mig because of how hot it can get (and therefore more penetration), it also causes much greater warp in parts. Still, it is much cheaper than mig to run!
Yep way better then those China ones any day thanks nice vid no music straight to the point
Thank you for that compliment :)
A excepción de la soldadura ! Buen trabajo
Yo lo hubiese hecho con rosca y no soldado lo demás está bien
И надежно, и красиво! Мастер!
Мастер??? Правой разверткой на левых оборотах разворачвать!!!!!!
facing off the material first helps prevent balance issues which can change the performance of of the steady rest on difficult materials
دمت گرم ،کارت درسته استاد
Muito bom o trabalho.
How in hell did you get such a lathe for 150euro, you lucky bastard. In my area you cant find a lathe under 600 in any sort of good condition. Anyway cool build.
Hehe 😜 first the price was at 300, but my dad bargained it down to 150€.
But the condition was pretty bad, rusty, worn out etc., so i had to refurbish it
Welding is purely practice - as you have your Dad to show you the basics. Have you kept an idea of the number of hours this has kept you off the streets and out of the Pub? You certainly have more patience than me for the manual knurling.. Altogether a great project and and great outcome...
😂 thank you.
Yes the hand filing was very time consuming and exhausting, i only did one at a time.
A usinagem ficou perfeita nós mínimos detalhes só precisa melhorar a solda
Професійно!
Мені б такий токарний патрон згодився!!!
What kind of welding did you use to complete the project MIG or Stick?
You could have done straight knerling and cut it on the lathe by putting a threading tool on its side and moving the carriage to make the cuts, just rotate the chuck by hand for each cut.. it's slow but it works better than free handing with a file
Thats a nice one , thanks.
Muito bom.parabéns
obrigado
Steady rest..lathe manual..
Good ...
Thank you
Has fet una bona feina.
Отличная работа! Но хочу дать совет - одень на подшипники кольца. Иначе внешние обоймы подшипников будут часто лопаться. Особенно при центрировании труб.
Совет отличный, согласен. Но вот на счёт момента ,когда больший риск что подшипник разворотит - тут скорее другие факторы. + если смазаны- момент центровки как раз таки не должны почувствовать... Тут скорее длительная работа, давление заставит обойму лопнуть... Перегрев туда же.
@@mihaeks1381 Я не знаю с чем это связано, но точно не со смазкой и не с перегревом. Да и длительная работа не влияет, внешняя обойма лопает быстро, максимум пару минут.
@@katkov000 да я просто судил из опыта... Правда не приходилось точить в люнете с подшипником без ролика... Такое и в голову не придёт)
Я не понял какую роль играет игольчатый упорный подшипник? Помоему он там вообще не к месту.
My machine is the same structure as yours but mine is incomplate, I would be interested in the position and module of the related gears of the transverse machine feed . thanks please if you can answer my question . thx again
Yes, i like it
Thank you
Amigo! DAnger!!! cuando usas la contrapunta la debes fijar con sus 2 frenos!! eres un peligro! igual te adoro! gracias! y una cosa mas: por favor trata a tu calibre mitutoyo con un poco mas de cariño, me hace sufrir! gracias! :)
34:10 before assembly, it was necessary to practice welding)
and in general, it's good
Thank you.
Yeah , im still bad at welding 🤣
What brand is your four jaw chuck used in this video?
What is the diameter of the chuck as well? Thank you. Enjoyed the content.
Thank you, its a chinese one but imported by a german company called "paulimot". Its 160mm
