    Hi Mr. Pete: like the series, and especially appreciate your emphasis on safety. I would add that when I was a kid working in the oilfields of Texas (50+years ago) I was taught two things: NEVER put your face in line with the grinding wheel and NEVER grind aluminum, etc. because it gets embedded in the wheel and it may come apart at hi RPM. Looking forward to the next one about live centers. Thanks

    your point about eye protection is well taken! Many,many years ago went I first started in trade there was a fellow in the tool room who had lose an eye using a Dumore tool post grinder! Always use PPE!

    It was interesting reading the text in the catalogue. It said one of the speeds available for the grinder was 9400 rpm. That's pretty fast.

    Shop vacuums are one of the best devices for home use in the last forty years or so. I would suggest that you fashion a metal collector for the grit to avoid the deterioration of the plastic collector. Or perhaps install a thin metal plate with epoxy inside the collector. An interesting video, as usual. Many thanks.

    Hi mr.pete nice to here seeing these grinders on a bigger scale, well we of course love the Tom's Thumb, that is large for us, but more our neighborhood, just watch your lathes ways, which you do well x 2 in your fine lesson.
    We do use Dumore motors on our Marshall lathes.
    Thank you for sharing this grinding on the lathe with us Lyle.

    I just ground my first part on my 16” SB lathe; a hardened Walstrum no. 1 Morse taper adapter, (that was 15/16”, and I ground it down to fit my largest R-8 collet 7/8”). To align the grinder with the axis of the lathe and get the height right at the same time, I put centers in both the headstock, and tailstock, and that gave me alignment and height simultaneously!!

  • @joemccarthywascorrect6240
    @joemccarthywascorrect6240 3 роки тому

    Another pre-coffee morning mental meandering... because it depends on how accurately the grinder spindle housing is cast/finished... setting an alignment bar between centers and (with the cross feed all the way out) taking a measure,ent from the ends of the housing to the alignment bar? It would probably work better if the end of the grinder shaft were exposed, but they are sealed...

    Here I got a little model 44 with a burned motor, got to get a finding a suitable replacement for it, I'm thinking about a variable speed 500 watts brush less spindle motor... Pretty sure it would do well... For less $$$ than a new or rebuilt original motor.

  • @klschofield71
    @klschofield71 5 років тому +3

    Informative and well thought out. Is that Tom-Thumb a dual speed? It looked like it had two different sized pulleys, but I'm not sure. Seems like it would be more versatile than a single speed.
    Also, when using your shop vac in that manner it's best to clean it out first, dampen the paper filter, and put about an inch or two of water in the bottom (if it's a wet/dry model) to prevent any secondary ignition of combustible materials that may be in it. When you're done with the operation, you want to clean the shop vac again. Like you say, "Better to be safe than sorry."

    As your doing your grinding, I hope you're keeping a weather eye on your shop vac. They have a habit of catching fire when used as a dust collector, especially grinding metal. Fortunately, you're not removing a tremendous amount of material so the risk is lower.

    • @pierresgarage2687
      @pierresgarage2687 5 років тому +1

      Did use the vacuum with a plasma cutter once, melted the hose in about 5 seconds, maybe less, was quite effective for the time it lasted, though...!!!! 🙄🙄🙄

    I have one and I was trying to sell on craigs list for 300 bucks. It didnt sell so I decided to use it. The belt guard is the first thing to go. Have to very careful of all the grit and crud it gives off on the ways. I also have the dumore hand grinder too but no clamp. I will probably make one.

    • @chrismate2805
      @chrismate2805 5 років тому

      Just out of interest a question about spindles spinning at high speeds and the force called "presession" present in turning objects like spindles and chucks. Now its like the spinning object forces a posision in the air for itself(my words), you can search presession experiments, so I just wondered at very high speeds if bearing condition by design matters as much as one might think if forces like grinding is introduced slowly and mildly to the spinning objects-?
      CNC engineering developed tolls to be used at much higher speeds, would they went that direction for more accuracy sustainable apart from doing the job quicker-? Dynamic stiffness & Precession-----air bearings).

    Mr. Pete, Have you ever cut down lathe bed ways to shorten it? I have an Atlas TH54 10" that I'd like to cut down because it's way too long for anything I'll ever need and to save precious shop space. I'd like my lathe to have no more than a 20" center distance so I'm thinking of cutting it down. In your opinion will cutting the bed ways be ruined or likely twist or bend the ways making them useless?

    Hi Mr Pete, thanks for the informative video, I noticed you did not diamond grind the wheel all the way? a bit was left at the edge, was this on purpose? or just an error?
    So I have used the Dremmel method making my own mount out of steal of coarse and got good results.
    But i want to build a proper tool post grinder myself, i think ill have to do a video of that to share.
    but i don think ill make one as big and bulky if i can find suitable motors and spindles. or make a good spindle myself.

      I saw that too. I think he just missed it while grinding. He should have noticed something was wrong though when taking the first cut and seeing the secondary grind area along with the massive increase of sparks. That is the crappy thing about working with a camera in front; its a lot easier to miss the obvious.
