The lathe is the only machine in the shop that can duplicate itself. Therefore it created a child, not a replacement. Thus far I have yet to meet anyone that complains about making children. Looking after them perhaps, but never making them.
@@jacobpoucher Yeah but compare his viewership to yours and where are you? Plus probably makes more from Patreon than a lot of us put together and he makes it doing what he wants. So, my kind of dumb. Back to work.
The HSS tooling just needs some rake and clearance angles ground into the tool. A bit of side rake and front clearance and it would be cutting that brass beautifully. The lathe is a work of art and your videos are amazing.
does it need to be held closer to the post? I assume that if it is sticking out too far it would have more leverage over the post and introduce chattering that way, particularly if the post itself isn't super rigid.
@@mattrickard3716 With brass, the stickout is fine since it's so easy to machine. Shawn is correct though, this HSS is basically a blank with no relief at all. May as well put a flathead screwdriver in the tool holder. Just 2 minutes on a grinding wheel would have this turning metal like a dream.
I'm sorry I'm seeing this 2 years later. I'd say the chatter at 20:01 is happening because your spindle is unsupported close to the chuck. This unsupported distance works like a lever on the headstock, which is wood and therefore is quite flexible. This lathe can be fixed, and overall it is wonderful to see and to watch you make it.
A lovely project. I do agree with Dude, the chuck is too far out from your headstock bearing. Rigidity is key in a lathe and that space allows for deflection. So your lovely gold nuts need to be on the backside of the headstock and the bearing needs to be enlarged so that the collet needs to be mostly inside that bearning. This would also then allow you to run a tube for the spindle, allowing for through parts in the headstock. So with all that said, I love the build. It's interesting to watch your thought processes.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate he hand-machined a mounting bracket with like countersink holes and a bunch of other holes and they all lined up perfectly?
What a gifted man. I don't know what Uri does for a living but if I had a business that required the skill of an artist and craftsman I would make sure he works with my team. Pleasure to watch.
the 4.4 and 4.8 represents steel properties. The first number represents tensile strength in 100N/mm^2, 400N/mm^2 in your case. The first and the second number multiplied gives you the yield limit in 10N/mm^2, in your case 4*4*10N/mm^2 or 160N/mm^2 and 4*8*10N/mm^2 or 320N/mm^2. Usual grades are 6.6, 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9. 4.4 is really soft.
Or you could say the second number is the yield limit in 10% of the tensile strenght. In engineering class you get told to use only 8.8 or higher, but to be careful with 10.9 and 12.9, because they get brittle very easy due to hydrogen embrittlement. (aka don't use them where it is damp/outdoors without protection)

And it would have held up a lot better if he pulled the tool in tighter, and reduced the stickout of the work. Plus grinding the hss to give relief angles would make a lot of difference.

You have truly been blessed with excellent skills. I am just astounded by how you can turn out those gorgeous brass handle pieces free handed. Your wood working skills are also quite amazing. Your eye for detail is superb and I love the little hand made hand planes. Bravo sir, very nice build. Btw, I still say that you would make an unforgettable Evil Genius in a Bond movie.

Thanks Uri! Great video as always and appreciate the editing to keep things moving quickly. I think many would consider the actual construction work (cutting, carving, planing, etc.) all quite therapeutic and relaxing to watch so you may want to consider leaving that in for a longer video!
or rather it refers to the quality of the steel the bolt is made of. Higher is better and a normal high quality bolt like the ones used in construction is 8.8.
Yes, 4.6 means it's made of a soft ish grade of cheese. 4.8 is marginally harder, thus unsuitable for spreading on bread. I prefer my sandwich fillings to be 8.8 at a minimum, preferably 10.8 for that high-tensile texture.
@@minihak Strength class: 5.8, 8.8, 10.9, etc., in which the first digit multiplied by 100 indicates the maximum load on the thread. For example, according to marking 8.8, it should be understood that this fastener has a tensile strength of 800 MPa or 80 kg / mm2 The second figure indicates the ratio of the yield strength to the size of the tensile strength, increased by 10 times.
I love the retro-future aesthetic of wood and brass mixed with modern bearings and plate. I also like that you left in the mistakes (like the misdrilled holes) without overdoing it for effect. It lets people who are just starting out forgive themselves and see how to work around them.

If only you could machine that bold to fit….wait, if you need a bolt to build a lathe, how did you get the bolt in the first place?! I absolutely LOVE your dry humor, seriously, it’s gold! I swear my 15-year-old son has learned his comedic timing from you, my friend!
I just can’t come up with the right words to say how impressed I am with your skills, patients, abilities, determination for perfection, insight, error solving skills, intelligence, modesty, humor, and just an all around good fellow. My hat is off to your Sir, you rock. I enjoy your videos immensely and pray that God blesses you and your family your work and your way of life for a very long time to come. I hope you have a son or daughter that gets to grow up under your tutelage and enjoys your work and life for many many years to come. Thank you, is all I can say.
Absolutely forgot anything about making a lathe. I was just mesmerized, fascinated, enchanted by your use of hand tools fabricating anything and everything and don't get me started on those always perfectly straight saw cuts. You use a chisel better than I can use a router. Wow, wow, wow and wow again!!! Well done my friend.
The lathe came out beautiful, and very functional. A work of art to help you create works of art. P.S. About the wrong size bolt. I can't do a project, no matter how small, without making at least 2 trips to the store. Cheers
I agree cast ways would be better, but it’s unlikely to be the rails, they are more than adequate for the task he’s using them for, it’s more likely some missing balls from the bearing blocks, he took them off the rails a number of times without putting a holder block back in, and I’m positive I even saw a couple flying across the desk a couple times.
I have to say you my friend are a true mechanical artist in every sense of the word. The stuff you build amazes me in its artistic and useful feasibility. Keep up the great work and I’ll keep watching.
I got the biggest compliment ever a couple of weeks ago. I posted a video of some hand screw clamps I made and someone said they thought you had made them. It felt really good.
Sure. It's not precise to a thousanth the first time you ever try it. Whatever. JUST LOOK AT THAT BEAUTIFUL THING!!! It's honestly the sexiest lathe I've ever seen. Every handle is hand turned, every piece of wood hand carved. It's truly amazing. I could tell that you weren't immediately happy with it, and I can see why. It doesn't create a glass smooth surface finish. But you hand made a lathe. That's amazing. Be proud
For making ball ends on brass rods try your hand at shaping tool steel cutters and heat treating them. You'll get better results than a straight chisel cutting tool. Fantastic bench lathe build man!
5th comment... Great lathe... I love it but I dont know how precise it is :D Probably not very precise but good enough for a tuchman! All of those parts are pretty not - precise judging by their quality and also I found them on Ebay :D I am a machinist so I would know (Edit) Wait a sec...

Excellent ! It was wonderful. No one is making for commercial purpose like this. Only a professional can make it with passion. Thanks you for providing such valuable video.
Dear Uri, the lovely brass nuts you put on the headstock are called “acorn nuts” for obvious reasons. Magnificent work. The chattering when using your cutting tool is that the entire width is rubbing on your material. If you grind some side relief, ie right side of your cutting edge, the cutting will become smoother and from one point, the front left corner of your cutter. I can’t see from my camera view but the same problem and solution may be happening in the vertical plane. Cheers.
Your videos are dope and i love the natural progression your tools make like using the old laithe to make the new one its awesome to see your diy tools help each other to make better and better tools
The new lathe looks great. There's always fine tuning to do when making something new so don't beat yourself up too much about any slipups. I love how you use brass for a lot of your creations, gives it a unique and nice look.
This is such a great project. You have such a fun style and I really appreciate that you show off mistakes that you make. It leads to a really candid video style and is really helpful for me to see that even excellent craftspeople make mistakes as well.
You may want to switch to ball screws! The lead screws have backlash when they switch directions. Also with backlash when you are taking a pass the pressure from the tool on the part keeps the backlash in one direction. But when you reverse off the part the pressure is gone so it will chatter on your part. Great looking lathe!! We have an old Derbyshire watch makers lathe in our machine shop and It has a lot of the beautiful touches on the knobs and stuff that yours has too!
One learns a lot in the doing of a thing and you learn stuff that you couldn't have foreseen until you had done it. So, much of what we all learn is hindsight. We look back and then we see. It seems that all of life is like that. I applaud your journey! You get immersed in the doing and then you learn much! Bravo! Please keep sharing! Thanks! :)
Man, you’re too funny! It seems like every project has its missing parts, wrong parts, and all the good stuff that makes your channel so interesting! It’s either you’re super unlucky OR you don’t do like the others that edit their videos to seem like they look good, actually, too good to be true! You’re brutally honest on everything you do and own any mistakes or mishaps you may encounter. Thank you very much!
Love to see how excited and happy with the progress you are - im very enjoy your craftsmanship - Thank you for sharing - very appreciate your time and effort.
Well done!. You worked so hard for it, and so the result simply reflects that from any angle. It looks great. If you want it to be stronger, there is some "golden ratio" between spindle's height and bed's width that you should investigate. Also, I'd go for two tapered roller bearings, back to back, instead of those you used. These are pretty inexpensive, and easy to come by in about any size. There also exist single-piece bearings that have two of these in different configurations (including mixed with deep-groove ball bearings), that are produced for wheel hubs (motorbikes, cars, trucks, etc). This way you'd only need to worry about fitting a cylinder in wood, and fix it so that it doesn't move. Another option is to use two angular-contact ball bearings, again, back to back. These even come with pretty narrow races (a lot of ID for a given OD), and unlike tapered roller bearings alone, these come sealed with rubber or metal, and greased for lifetime. For a more DYI thing, you can also do your own bearing, by mimicking the ones used in bycicles' hubs (the ones commonly seen in front wheels). All the best!
You forced your old lathe to build its replacement, what a monster.

One learns a lot in the doing of a thing and you learn stuff that you couldn't have foreseen until you had done it.
So, much of what we all learn is hindsight. We look back and then we see. It seems that all of life is like that.
I applaud your journey! You get immersed in the doing and then you learn much!
Bravo!
Please keep sharing!
Thanks! :)
I am so so happy that you are back with your crazy cool stuff Uri! We missed you!!!
Man, you’re too funny! It seems like every project has its missing parts, wrong parts, and all the good stuff that makes your channel so interesting! It’s either you’re super unlucky OR you don’t do like the others that edit their videos to seem like they look good, actually, too good to be true!
You’re brutally honest on everything you do and own any mistakes or mishaps you may encounter.
Thank you very much!
Love to see how excited and happy with the progress you are - im very enjoy your craftsmanship - Thank you for sharing - very appreciate your time and effort.
I love that you use a bunch of actual hand tools! Awesome.
You are a genius. It was a pure joy watching you work, as always
Well done!. You worked so hard for it, and so the result simply reflects that from any angle. It looks great.
If you want it to be stronger, there is some "golden ratio" between spindle's height and bed's width that you should investigate.
Also, I'd go for two tapered roller bearings, back to back, instead of those you used. These are pretty inexpensive, and easy to come by in about any size.
There also exist single-piece bearings that have two of these in different configurations (including mixed with deep-groove ball bearings), that are produced for wheel hubs (motorbikes, cars, trucks, etc). This way you'd only need to worry about fitting a cylinder in wood, and fix it so that it doesn't move.
Another option is to use two angular-contact ball bearings, again, back to back. These even come with pretty narrow races (a lot of ID for a given OD), and unlike tapered roller bearings alone, these come sealed with rubber or metal, and greased for lifetime.
For a more DYI thing, you can also do your own bearing, by mimicking the ones used in bycicles' hubs (the ones commonly seen in front wheels).
All the best!
nice to see some video off a project, always a plesure to see you in action. the point off detailing is fantasic and a joy to see in action.
If captain Nemo had a mini lathe it would look like that...............Superb once again.........Cheers
I love that you make things beautiful as well as functional.
