Not boring at all my friend, this kind of stuff is not very common on youtube. Cheer up for more content like this, your detailed construction videos are the best.
Disagree. NEVER attemp to use an endmill in a drill chuck like in this video. Use a proper endmill chuck. Drill chucks are not designed to work with radial loads that appears during milling. Some day, the mill or the entore chuck will fly away from its arbor...and you don't want to be there if this happens, believe me. Not talking about any kind of precission. You just can't pretend be in this hobby if you are not willing to spend the money in some basic stuff.
Diego Viana Villegas true but for small work with endmill i just use basic chuck because it's fastest way, if i mill more i put out the chuch and use mk3 cone for mill i got from 2mm to 20mm.
Are you kidding me this is not boring at all but it help me to build my own and without wasting 100 dollars on same for rc excavator and other hydraulic power rc vehicle bro it's is the best video well thanks
I have no skills for this kind of work, nor machinery, but i watched it all just out of interest. for those who know what they do, this is a gold mine. thank you for sharing!
Always amazed at the power of hydraulic cylinders - big or small! Thank you sir, for sharing your many skills and projects. You are a true Craftsman! RL. Buffalo, NY USA
what a great video. im not planing on making any hydraulic cylinders soon but i really enjoyed your work. the instructions are so clear i think even someone who has never seen a lathe in his life can now make a hydraulic cylinders himself... great work thank you and subscribed
What do you mean boring! This was one of the most interesting videos. I had been wanting to try making an RC hydraulic machine and now this construction video really got me going. I would love to see the same thing and plans for the valve! Again great video.
I have a question though. I took a quick look at the rotary valves and while there is an O ring around the unit, there is no rubber seal between the ports. How do you keep fluid from going between the brass disc and aluminum body?
I have dreamed of having my own lathe and cutter in the basement for many years now! I am 42 summers old and have previously worked for about 20 years as a cnc operator in industry it would have felt wonderful to get an outlet for their creativity through projects like yours .. respect..you do a great job ...
This video was not boring at all, it was very very informative and better than most things on UA-cam. I hope your channel grows huge like you deserve mate! Keep up the amazing vids
If you don't have a milling machine or CNC you can also put a mill in your lathe's chuck, then install the part you want milled on the tool post holder. A plate is best (like an L profile plate, for example). You won't have an axis, so you have to install the part where you need it to be cut, but, you'll have the option to mill flats, which is more than you had before.
To take this a step further, if you mount the L plate directly onto the cross slide, then mount the compound slide to the vertical leg of the L plate, you now have your third axis. Best bet if you are using an angle plate (L plate), if there is going to be any heavy milling done, you may want to brace it to keep the vertical face perpendicular to the lathe spindle. An alternative is to find a milling attachment for your lathe (Taig and Sherline both sell such attachments for their lathes, other manufacturers may as well). This is what I have for my Taig lathe.
Nice instructions on how to construct a basic hydraulic cylinder for RC models. If one have the possibility, I advice to put 2 off o-rings on the rod. The outer o-ring will stop small bits of sand, then the inner o-ring will last longer.
Decidedly NOT a boring video. I am a mechanical engineer and built hydraulic shears in a previous job. We often had pistons in the 450mm+ range, but I can say they went together just like yours mostly, especially the seals. Any part stuck out or was forced during assembly would slice a seal then the whole thing had to come apart and be replaced. I enjoyed seeing this video and am looking forward to more like it. Thank you.
Thanks, also me work with cylinders, i work in a gray cast steel company, so there are lot of big cylinders, two of them wich push the mould to send is about 400mm diameter, than ther's a few long about 3m leingth...
The only boring part of this video is when you are increasing the drilled holes to final size... with a boring bar... *chuckle* Thank you for this - it makes it easier for me to see a way to set up RC heavy equipment within my budget range!
The only thing boring involved a boring bar, which is to say, it wasn't boring at all. Subscribed, thank you. I'm looking forward to watching more of your boring content.
It was not at all a boring video, so don't say that ever again. You have a very creative mind and know what you want to build, and build it. Thumbs up my friend.
I was wracking my brain trying to work out what you were talking about with "It must be without a stitch." until I realised you're referring to seamless pipe, Duuuuuh lol. Good work, really enjoyable content.
Roy Pod exactly that's what i want to show, everybody says that minilathe is just piece of shit but there is lot of think i make on that small machine, thanks man
I liked your video a lot. More so when you said millimeterrr. It's contagious . I will never be able to say millimeter again. Great work brother. Lots of respect and regards from India.
Something you can try when doing final cosmetics . When sanding the primer or final color, swipe a few of the wife's multi grit finger nail files. The ones that have 4-5 different grits on one stick. Use the Medium, Fine, and Polish grits. I use them wet and/or Dry. wet for final polish stage. I have even glued the fingernail files to the head or disposable electric toothbrushes after removing the bristles. Oral B work great especially small parts like these cylinders. Great video, thanks for posting
Boring Video ? You must be kidding us. Your videos are excellent. And I guess one need to be a man to se the beauty in technics.. Thank you for wasting your time on strangers.
Yes, long but you kept the pace up very consistently and it was long because you had a lot of things to share. Wish more content providers could do such a good job of making content.
Excellent video. I have dreamed of making my own cylinders, but after watching this, it is beyond my skill level, or should I say patience. LOL. Nicely done!
Brother you are talented !!! I watched the whole boring thing!!! Loved it actually! Great work that’s a piece of artwork my friend !!! Real beauty ....
Woww! !!...sono rimasto senza parole !!!...un lavoro da ingegnere e altamente professionale !!!...usi il tornio come una forchetta !!!...me li fai anche per il mio scavatore? ??...bravo ...per me sei un genio !!!
Thanks neighbor , no i don't make them, it's just a hobby, also i bought cilynder for farming use, i will make them by myself but i need a bigger lathe. what kind of excavator do you own, i also buy takeuchi tb025 last year, somekind of my lifewish :)
At the start of this video my first thought was " I must make comment about this guys funny Russian accent" But - after watching you work for a few minutes I soon found that it was you skill that was impressive - not your accent. I'm off now to look for more of you videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks man, otherwise i come from Slovenia but we all speak slovanian language, so sound same but accent but the russian language is tottaly different. Also my english is very bad and j know that but look like people can handle that, i expect much more negativism about my speaking 😉
@@TinC33 Your English is 1000 times better that my Slovenian - I can just manage a few words in Polish. Hope you are keeping safe in these uncertain times.
@@martingardener90 thanks, oh so you spek slovanian language also 😉 Yea we'r pretty good here with that virus, i'm almost a year in qarantene, cuz i got spine surgury, cheers to Poland.

I love the countries of which fall between Asia and Europe and wish to go on my bike one day and experience the diversity of this wonderful people.
I have seen your video almost 30 times. It is a piece of machining master class and I would love to see the RC pump made on lathe that you mention in your description. Thanks for sharing.
TinC33 Thanks. The valve is also very interesting , I am willing to see it. I have just received the material to make a cylinder, let's see if at least I can match the colour of yours ;)
Oh no i always said it's my best spent $300, make lot of stuff on it, some of them like turning the starter rotor on them, making steel oil cap, you can also find on my channel
Thanks so much! That was an excellent video, and I have just subscribed to your channel. You explanations of what you did and _why_ are very valuable. I also liked how you had a little cross-section view of the part you were making down in the corner of the screen, so we could understand what the final part looked like while it was being made. Many UA-cam machinist make the mistake of just filming what they are doing, without telling viewers what they are thinking, before and during the part making. Good job!
Hi. That is an amazing scale hydraulic cylinder, and although the video is quite long, it is definitely NOT boring. Everything explained beautifully. Off to check your other videos now, and most likely subscribe. Thanks for sharing. Regards Mark in the UK
Thank you for such a detailed and informative video. I've been looking for a video of this quality for a long time. Very impressive work. Now to watch your video on building the hydraulic pump and control gear. Awesome 👍 Thanks again. (could you do a video tutorial on making the hydraulic control system. The valve, reservoir, pump etc)
Excelente trabajo, me encanta muy buena ejecución y resultado, un saludo desde España. Excellent work I love very good execution and result, greetings from Spain.
This is fantastic. Very informative, and also entertaining. You do very good work. One thing... Please get a set of collets to hold your end mills. Milling with a drill chuck is at best inaccurate, and at worst, very dangerous. That chuck isn't meant for the lateral forces, and there's a good chance it'll pop off the arbor and go flying across your shop!
Chris Santacroce that's true, i use collet when milling more, but for small milling operation till 10mm mill i use chuck without a problem, it's just much faster.
What it is boring video. Be sure ı was boring until this video be cause ı was searching every where this kind of video. Really wonderful job thanks for this video. :D
No, no, no. This is very good stuff. I've been planning to get mini lathe for quite a while now and pretty much everyone has said to me "No, don't get small chinese lathe. Get old TOZ or something". I've tried to say many that I don't need to big lathe, they're everywhere and I don't have any interest in doing rims or huge parts. I'd like to make bushings for motorcycles, bearing press tools etc. and if possible and have need to do some small detailed parts. This video proves exactly my point, that if the machine is so-to-say calibrated well they could be capable of doing pretty detailed work and user creativity and talent of operation is the limiting factor on manual machining tools generally speaking. I'd totally get that TOZ or something similar, if I'd have space and use for it. Plus this is going to be the way. I'll get one sometime and try to work with it. If I get the talent to use it efficiently, I would also feel much more better in possibly getting bigger lathe if needed. But I'd still doubt I'd sell mini lathe even in that case. Even for ergonomics it's nicer to have small machine than to try to work bit bigger machine with part diameters of say around 20mm. Thank you TinC33
Hy, do you wrote my mind? ;) I listen daily how sucks that lathe is, but propabbly from people who don't eaven see that lathe. I got this lathe for 8 years now, year 2011 i pay 300€ for new lathe, what is this 1/4 of new iphone? that's funny price if you ask me, and the lathe is just great, it's preatty limitet with a size but for my hobby somekind enough, but if you want to use them for what you say, i will look for one size bigger lathe, they'r about 800mm leinght, and got 100 or 125mm chuck, because weakness point on that lathe is bore through the spindle it's only 16mm on 80mm chuck, well that one size bigger got hole through 20mm or 22mm. That lathe work really awesome, but you need propper tool, with bad tool you need more force wich lathe can't handle, so you need really good sharp tool so you can turning, cutting, facing... without any big force, and lathe will run as it must, so tool is basic in combination with that mini lathe. I slowly looking for that "one size bigger" because i want auto support for the x axis also, but i will never sold this one, because as you say ergonomy, i work also with bigger lathe like 2meters working area, but you need to stand and be bended when work, after few hours it's not that easy, but here, i got it on table, so i can sit and work really comfortable. You can watch my other video about lathe, lathe tools from banggood, and so on, i got lot of video about this lathe. And offcourse as you say that's actual my slogan "if you learn to work on cheap machines, you will be master on expencive machines" So if you want a lathe just go for it, you can still sell them easily if you see that you need a bigger lathe... If you got any question feel free to ask. Just one more interesting fact, i buy that lathe 2011 for 300€ today same lathe in same store cost almost 600€, i ask them why and said that chinesse got steel price, connected to us$ so US$ rise, price of chinesse still rise. Where are you from, in US got brand grizzly, in DE optimum, holzmann, in AT erba, bernardo, there are really lot of brand of that lathe, but the'r all preatty much the same, except the equpement, electronic, painting, stickers, and maybe some better assembely, but the price can be 3 times higher for a brand like optimum, so be careful when buying.
@@TinC33 thank you. I'm from Finland. I've noticed same with prices. I regret really bad that I didn't buy one about three years ago. Prices where much lower and many models which where sold here are nowhere to be found today. I've been recently looking into possibly ordering directly from Banggood,but then again I've noticed that occasionally on eBay etc. I've seen Holzmann for about 150euro more, but with much more included tools. I think they're not high quality, but maybe still something to start with and I think I'll get more complete order with bit higher price? Actually I've seen few Bernardo branded machine for sale here too, but for much higher price and well I guess guarantee is a bit hit and miss thing anyway in cheap machines anyway,well unless there's something absolutely horribly wrong with the machine. Still I feel like I can deal with many problems myself so ordering from somewhere else is ok to me as long as seller is fairly reputable. Would you get machine without tools or would you pay bit more for somekind of set of tools if you were buying machine today?
@@jothain Hy, i wouldn't be worried about waranty, because there's almost nothing to broke, maybe electronic but other, should last for long, i make many many hours on that machine in 8 years but still running on first brushes. ther's also electronic protection so you can't overload the motor. There are also tons of spare and optional parts on internet, so fixing and improving shouldn't be problem (You can see on my channel how i make it more ridgid, make cheap dro, rail cleaners...) If i buy today, i will may a bit more, because i see that bernardo got manualy lapped ways (rails) my cheap machine got only machinned grinded. and that's really importent stuff, not easy to make home, so i got some lathes from bernardo on eye, but temporrary to expencive. And deffinitly i buy without any tool and equipement, because price rise too much for the shitty equipement wich come with, with time you throw away everything... On banggood you got soooo many good tools (check my channel) for a funny price, QCTP is one of first thing you need to buy (maybe even before buy a lathe) on bangggod you got some good qctp entire steel, than you need some live center, self tightening chuck, and offcourse a set of carbide insert tool holders...
@@TinC33 your English is so much better than others you are showing everything every bit perfectly no need any perfect language skills your English is so much better than mine.
Wow, very nice, was lookig for this. Great job. But when you say “easier then you think” well.. i dont know that yet. Seems very precise and skills needed to make this. I will try it someday but wished i could make this one day.
Amazing video. Its not long. I wish it was longer but its ok. Some places I don't understand what u saying but next time I will ask you if it is must. Thanks a lot and i wish you go to greater highest and it sure is a privilege to have such info made for us.

PacoWang thanks
Disagree. NEVER attemp to use an endmill in a drill chuck like in this video. Use a proper endmill chuck. Drill chucks are not designed to work with radial loads that appears during milling. Some day, the mill or the entore chuck will fly away from its arbor...and you don't want to be there if this happens, believe me.
Not talking about any kind of precission. You just can't pretend be in this hobby if you are not willing to spend the money in some basic stuff.
Diego Viana Villegas true but for small work with endmill i just use basic chuck because it's fastest way, if i mill more i put out the chuch and use mk3 cone for mill i got from 2mm to 20mm.
The cylinder you build here is nothing short of "absolutely gorgeous" - I am sooo jealous :-)))
Are you kidding me this is not boring at all but it help me to build my own and without wasting 100 dollars on same for rc excavator and other hydraulic power rc vehicle bro it's is the best video well thanks

Go for it. I have a mini mill and I have found a lot of people who have lathe have the mill also.l
I'm living in apartment building and have a lathe, mill, bandsaw, cnc router, etc in my room :P
I have a question though. I took a quick look at the rotary valves and while there is an O ring around the unit, there is no rubber seal between the ports. How do you keep fluid from going between the brass disc and aluminum body?

Carsten Kaulfuss thanks
Great project. Not boring at all and i understood all of it. Well done
Amazing video, great result! You presented the process clear and good to follow, my compliments!
Very nice those thumbs down are still views - great job!
I must commend your craftsmanship.
Hi. That is an amazing scale hydraulic cylinder, and although the video is quite long, it is definitely NOT boring. Everything explained beautifully. Off to check your other videos now, and most likely subscribe. Thanks for sharing.
Regards Mark in the UK
thecorbies thanks
Thank you for such a detailed and informative video. I've been looking for a video of this quality for a long time. Very impressive work.
Now to watch your video on building the hydraulic pump and control gear. Awesome 👍
Thanks again. (could you do a video tutorial on making the hydraulic control system. The valve, reservoir, pump etc)
Very nicely done and should work for a life time. Good video.
Me too I enjoyed the video very much. And your commentary is educated informative and easy to understand. Great job. On the cylinder also. I love it.
Thanks
Excelente trabajo, me encanta muy buena ejecución y resultado, un saludo desde España.
Excellent work I love very good execution and result, greetings from Spain.
Thanks, greetings from Slovenija
That's a nice small lathe! Nice job!
Not boring, really liked it, keep it up
This is fantastic. Very informative, and also entertaining. You do very good work.
One thing... Please get a set of collets to hold your end mills. Milling with a drill chuck is at best inaccurate, and at worst, very dangerous. That chuck isn't meant for the lateral forces, and there's a good chance it'll pop off the arbor and go flying across your shop!
Chris Santacroce that's true, i use collet when milling more, but for small milling operation till 10mm mill i use chuck without a problem, it's just much faster.
Very nice work - beautiful cylinder. Video was perfect length.
Warren Bailey thanks
What a great solution to clean the gun barrel. 👌
mrebholz just use the tool i got, thanks.
This was amazingly detailed and well done, thank you! I feel confident to try this myself now.
Thanks
Stunning work. I'd love to see more.
What it is boring video. Be sure ı was boring until this video be cause ı was searching every where this kind of video. Really wonderful job thanks for this video. :D
Thanks, i hope i can find time soon to make video also about valve
No, no, no. This is very good stuff. I've been planning to get mini lathe for quite a while now and pretty much everyone has said to me "No, don't get small chinese lathe. Get old TOZ or something". I've tried to say many that I don't need to big lathe, they're everywhere and I don't have any interest in doing rims or huge parts. I'd like to make bushings for motorcycles, bearing press tools etc. and if possible and have need to do some small detailed parts. This video proves exactly my point, that if the machine is so-to-say calibrated well they could be capable of doing pretty detailed work and user creativity and talent of operation is the limiting factor on manual machining tools generally speaking. I'd totally get that TOZ or something similar, if I'd have space and use for it. Plus this is going to be the way. I'll get one sometime and try to work with it. If I get the talent to use it efficiently, I would also feel much more better in possibly getting bigger lathe if needed. But I'd still doubt I'd sell mini lathe even in that case. Even for ergonomics it's nicer to have small machine than to try to work bit bigger machine with part diameters of say around 20mm. Thank you TinC33
Hy, do you wrote my mind? ;)
I listen daily how sucks that lathe is, but propabbly from people who don't eaven see that lathe.
I got this lathe for 8 years now, year 2011 i pay 300€ for new lathe, what is this 1/4 of new iphone? that's funny price if you ask me, and the lathe is just great, it's preatty limitet with a size but for my hobby somekind enough, but if you want to use them for what you say, i will look for one size bigger lathe, they'r about 800mm leinght, and got 100 or 125mm chuck, because weakness point on that lathe is bore through the spindle it's only 16mm on 80mm chuck, well that one size bigger got hole through 20mm or 22mm.
That lathe work really awesome, but you need propper tool, with bad tool you need more force wich lathe can't handle, so you need really good sharp tool so you can turning, cutting, facing... without any big force, and lathe will run as it must, so tool is basic in combination with that mini lathe.
I slowly looking for that "one size bigger" because i want auto support for the x axis also, but i will never sold this one, because as you say ergonomy, i work also with bigger lathe like 2meters working area, but you need to stand and be bended when work, after few hours it's not that easy, but here, i got it on table, so i can sit and work really comfortable.
You can watch my other video about lathe, lathe tools from banggood, and so on, i got lot of video about this lathe.
And offcourse as you say that's actual my slogan "if you learn to work on cheap machines, you will be master on expencive machines"
So if you want a lathe just go for it, you can still sell them easily if you see that you need a bigger lathe...
If you got any question feel free to ask.
Just one more interesting fact, i buy that lathe 2011 for 300€ today same lathe in same store cost almost 600€, i ask them why and said that chinesse got steel price, connected to us$ so US$ rise, price of chinesse still rise.
Where are you from, in US got brand grizzly, in DE optimum, holzmann, in AT erba, bernardo, there are really lot of brand of that lathe, but the'r all preatty much the same, except the equpement, electronic, painting, stickers, and maybe some better assembely, but the price can be 3 times higher for a brand like optimum, so be careful when buying.
@@TinC33 thank you. I'm from Finland. I've noticed same with prices. I regret really bad that I didn't buy one about three years ago. Prices where much lower and many models which where sold here are nowhere to be found today. I've been recently looking into possibly ordering directly from Banggood,but then again I've noticed that occasionally on eBay etc. I've seen Holzmann for about 150euro more, but with much more included tools. I think they're not high quality, but maybe still something to start with and I think I'll get more complete order with bit higher price? Actually I've seen few Bernardo branded machine for sale here too, but for much higher price and well I guess guarantee is a bit hit and miss thing anyway in cheap machines anyway,well unless there's something absolutely horribly wrong with the machine. Still I feel like I can deal with many problems myself so ordering from somewhere else is ok to me as long as seller is fairly reputable. Would you get machine without tools or would you pay bit more for somekind of set of tools if you were buying machine today?
@@jothain Hy, i wouldn't be worried about waranty, because there's almost nothing to broke, maybe electronic but other, should last for long, i make many many hours on that machine in 8 years but still running on first brushes. ther's also electronic protection so you can't overload the motor. There are also tons of spare and optional parts on internet, so fixing and improving shouldn't be problem (You can see on my channel how i make it more ridgid, make cheap dro, rail cleaners...)
If i buy today, i will may a bit more, because i see that bernardo got manualy lapped ways (rails) my cheap machine got only machinned grinded. and that's really importent stuff, not easy to make home, so i got some lathes from bernardo on eye, but temporrary to expencive.
And deffinitly i buy without any tool and equipement, because price rise too much for the shitty equipement wich come with, with time you throw away everything... On banggood you got soooo many good tools (check my channel) for a funny price, QCTP is one of first thing you need to buy (maybe even before buy a lathe) on bangggod you got some good qctp entire steel, than you need some live center, self tightening chuck, and offcourse a set of carbide insert tool holders...
excellent mini lathe tips. Poor mans version of a dividing head. Great video
Thanks
excellent, you are teaching like a professor you are great.
wow, thanks, if i only speak english better
@@TinC33 your English is so much better than others
you are showing everything every bit perfectly no need any perfect language skills
your English is so much better than mine.
@@chandamamachandamama9792 thanks, there will come same video about making valve, but wait on more free time.
love the work and the metal looks great even without the paint.
amazing ! not boring at all, the video is very interesting and you're doing an excellent job ! thank you for making and sharing videos like this ;)
Robert Jung thanks, i will try to make more "that kind" videos
Wow, very nice, was lookig for this. Great job. But when you say “easier then you think” well.. i dont know that yet. Seems very precise and skills needed to make this. I will try it someday but wished i could make this one day.
If you got a minilathe, just go for it you may loose some € worth materiall 😉
Amazing video. Its not long. I wish it was longer but its ok. Some places I don't understand what u saying but next time I will ask you if it is must. Thanks a lot and i wish you go to greater highest and it sure is a privilege to have such info made for us.
Thanks
That was one of the best videos I have seen , thank you
Wow fantastic work, well explained. Thank you very much for sharing!
Excellent, clear and concise. A lot of information well presented, Thanks.
Thanks, there's also video about valve, if you'r interestes to see.
very helpful video for my project,but i gonna make this by simple tricks,thank u
