    Never seen a chuck jaw snap like that.

      Must be just my luck then 😂 luckily the project is going a lot smoother since that so looking forward to sharing the finished project with you all.

    Well done Joe, it looks plenty solid from this side of the computer screen. As owner of a round column myself, I find this very interesting and I'm looking forward to your test run measurements. I can see a couple of flustered moments with the chuck, and the bench mod, anyhow, take a deep breath, keep breathing and we'll see you next week, cheers mate!

      Cheers Howder,
      Yeah few iffy moments there. I’ll try to share as much detail as possible when it comes to testing out. Hopefully inspire you to do a similar mod in future. All the best

    Hi Joe, here we go with Joe, column well it is tough. Liking your workshop area as it seems to be a secret cave of creation. Nanu Nanu Star Wars, LOL. Is that speed chuck a German Albrecht, if so we made a video, there is a replacement kit, if China then well a true scrapper it is likely, in our thoughts that is. Enjoyed your solutions beginnings. Enjoyed had fun, Lance & Patrick.

      Hi Lance and Patrick glad you enjoyed the start of the improvement. I will have to check the Chuck as It came with the mill and fairly old looking at it so maybe a good make. Appreciate the support you guys give.
      All the best

    Great job Joe, it’ll help a good few folks who have the same issue - looks like your Tig might be better on pure Argon. The splutter and crackle sounds like it’s on an oxy argon mix 👍🏻

      Hi Mic Taylor welcome to the channel.
      Yes I hope it helps some folks out that’s what the channel is about helping and learning.
      I’ll look into the gas thank you I thought it was pure argon so I will have to double check.
      All the best.

    Dan, I have a round column mill and I like your idea, just a couple of points, tank cutters are not designed to be used as you did, weve all done it but I'm certain that the cutter buggered your drill chuck, the cutters have a tendancy to dig in particularly when the teeth get clogged and can friction weld to the job, the cutter stops but the chuck couldnt hence the failure.
    Second point, youve lowered the mill to far and now you will find you have back trouble bending over to see the work and setting up the jobs.

    • @MachiningwithJoe
      @MachiningwithJoe  3 роки тому

      Hi Dan, thank you for your feedback. Yeah I don’t think the hole cutter was the best tool I could have chosen but like you sed we all do it and it got the job done. Hopefully where it’s just a hobby it won’t affect my back but I see what your saying however before had it was way to high I built the bench before I got the lathe and just went off my other bench’s dimensions.
      Hope your enjoying the videos all the best.

    Lotta videos about this round column mill problem. Here’s what I do: extend the quill down, put a mag base on the table and zero up a travel indicator on the side of the quill, go up or down with the head as needed and bring the head back to zero before you tighten the clamp bolts. It’s kind of a hassle, but it does the job and avoids all of the mods that people are doing.

    I have a 'Wrong' Fu round column mill badged from MSC. This is an interesting modification.

    • @MachiningwithJoe
      @MachiningwithJoe  3 роки тому

      I have just had a look at that mill looks good belt driven compared to my gear head but the mod should work the same.

    How are you running your lathe Joe? Interested as I'm getting on and looking at single to 3 phase options

    • @MachiningwithJoe
      @MachiningwithJoe  2 роки тому

      Hi Jim,
      So I’m running my lathe from a Transwave inverter rated at 3.0KW. So far I have found the Transwave to be pretty good a reliable.

      @@MachiningwithJoe Is it wired direct to the motor? Assume if it is you can use lathe controls and foot brake?

    • @MachiningwithJoe
      @MachiningwithJoe  2 роки тому +1

      @@jimspencer3072 so the Transwave inverter has a 16A 3 phase socket on it so the lathe can be connected using original plug. This means everything works like normal.
