Pearl's Headstock Removing Gears, Cogs & Shifting Levers
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- I remove the shift levers and output shaft for the feed drive, then lift the headstock right off the bed.
I did load this in 4K fist time and as of 4.00 PM HD and 4K are still in processing mode.
This is brilliant, you seem to be enjoying it as much as we are Keith. I get the feeling this series will be responsible for more Monarch lathes being saved than might otherwise have been. I love the way you breeze through the tasks that freak many of us out. Proper skills. Thanks for your time.
You were like a kid on Christmas morning when you pulled that headstock off. That giant chip gave me a good laugh
Coffee with Keith and the Flag, rebuilding a thing that makes round things, as the video is in 360. Perfect start to the day.
It is awesome what our ancestors did without our technology. I have machines built before 1940, and they are all doing what they were designed to do.Awesome!
Keith is smiling his super grin and it's very refreshing! We're all looking for the next installment already! Seems like the old things are super complex mechanically and not simply over built. Keep on truckin' Keith!
Absolutely fantastic,... what a great project your into madman. dam,.... love these old machines, the best!!
Great autopsy of this machine and testament to the awesome design of this workhorse
Now, you're back! Big smile, laughing at yourself, humorous comments like; all 20 of my 7/8ths wrenches there. I talk to myself when I'm in the workshop too. Sadly there's no camera present.
I'm looking forward to the rest of this series.
I knew you could do it! And looks as though no fingers or hands were mangled. Thanks for the ride along, enjoyed the work in progress.
Enjoy your videos Keith. Repairing stuff is ok but the satisfaction you get from making a part and getting something to work properly with your part is the most gratifying thing. I really enjoy making parts on my old 1938 Under driven belt drive Lathe and my old Bridgeport mill down at the farm. Nothing fancy but they get the job done.
I like watching Keith solve these large metal 3-D puzzles.
When you get to think about the design engineers and the foresight and skills they had and the guys assembling these lathes the mind boggles this was 1941 I’d swear an alien was overlooking the work’s ,,,,,,kudos to them all thanks for the film kieth
Enjoying this series. Like an iron jigsaw pattern. Shine her up!
Really enjoying this series.
Keith I really appreciate having you back for these long videos. I miss it! Can't wait to see how ole Pearl turns out but I think we all know it's gonna be a winner
Its a Joy to see your Pasion about Pearl, getting her back in Running Order. A great Series to watch Keith. Greetings from Germany
In another life Keith would have been a Gynecologist, Pearl is in good hands.
I have been loving watching you restore Pearl. I am still inspired to work on my machines because of you and others. Thanks Keith.

It's at this point in time if I were doing it, I would realize it will never be the same again, lol. Thanks for sharing.
It's that feel of accomplishment and gained experience!
Man, there's a lot of stuff coming out of that headstock!!! I have my dad's slide hammer he made many years ago he used. It has come in handy many times since I took it over. I'm currently rebuilding a 15" Sheldon lathe, not nearly as massive as a Monarch. Don't have any intention of taking apart the headstock like you are doing. Enjoy your series on taking this baby apart. Thanks for sharing, Ken
I have a mid 60s Hardinge lathe that had about a gallon container worth of cigarette buts inside the bed when you pulled the vari-speed controller for the carriage off the end of it. Never could figure that out. Taking down old stuff is like archeology. Looking back in time and seeing what happened in the past. Thanks for the video.
I have a Karger horizontal mill (German, designed prior to 1920, but with a factory installed DC motor driving the flat belt pulleys) that I've been trying to date. The gasket between the upper and lower castings was actually part of a schematic of some kind that had been printed on heavier than normal paper. It's oil soaked and fragile, but still mostly legible in the right light. I've yet to find a date, however. It IS like archeology!
That went really slick. Great job!
Gosh Keith it is great to have you back. (Awesome)
That lathe and I are the same age. Sure wish I could be repaired as easy as that lathe.
Excellent video !!! Thanks for sharing...
Hi Keith ☺ nice job removing the headstock, when I was a mechanic I had quite a few Special wrenches in my tool box, some whith quite bazaar bends, cuts, you name it, get'r done I guess,lol. So the story unfolds , thanks for another interesting video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and Lisa. Stuart Uk.
Enjoyed your tear down. Very interesting
This guy, like a lot of kids, probably took all the clocks apart at his home when he was a young boy. The difference is he likely cleaned and oiled all the parts and put them back together so they kept better time.
Quite the remark: That's something. Genius!
I would recommend calling monarch with your serial number and buying the manual and build sheet for your lathe. Honestly it’s not the greatest part break down but it’s better than nothing and it’s not cheap but the fact 80 years later you can even still get it is worth a lot. And it’s a small price to keep that support available.
Got their Number # ? I'm not that worried about all the details, got bearing company to help with bearing preloads, for the speeds I plan on running it and most other components are self explanatory.
My first machine I had to put together was a 100" King VTL, sent down from Peugeot Sound Wa. to San Diego Ca. in pieces, I assembled it and it was my first machine I ever ran. From there my inside outside machinist combination took off. I was pretty much the one to be called in to investigate and repair, from then on and progress to each company I worked for over the years. with all that said it is nice having the information at hand to save some of the natural guess work the minds plays in this line of work or play, for me, dive in the deep end, rather than wade into the pool! LOL
A manual in English ? How rare.
LOL
Brian, Got one on the way $30, I'm going to guess a $1 per page, I bet it is the same bit of information I got on Keith Rucker's site, we will see.
@@KeithFenner Probably more like $10/page for what you got. On my CBB I got 3 pages machine specific information for my exact serial number lathe with all the parts and speeds and motor configuration it was built with as well as the steady rests and follow rests it was originally built with. The rest of it will be the same stuff you can find on Ruckers Vintage Machinery site. Mine was built between March and May of 1941 according to the paperwork and sold to the US Navy. I guess I am only the second owner. 🙂
Good video lots of good information Keith thanks for sharing
that's a pretty nice slide hammer, not sure if i've ever seen one like that
I liked the technique of hooking the box end of one wrench in the open end of the other wrench for added leverage. I hadn't seen that before.
The term is double wrenching
It makes a great " torque click" sound when tightening .
I wonder if that threading feature is automatic, by setting the collars to move the spline rod, which would throw the drive direction, meaning the operator only needs to retract the cutting tool between cuts. Be very interesting to see that working. Good luck with rebuild Keith from Steve UK.
KEITH, YOU ARE ALMOST 1/3 rd DONE...I AM GOING TO WATCH THE OTHER 2/3 rds GET PROFESSIONALLY DONE !!!
All the best on you getting er done.
KEITH, WAY GO, THAT MADE ME TIRED, GREAT VIDEO...TAKE CARE...
Olá meu amigo Keuth que trabalheira, más to gostando de mais este trabalho, e sempre acompanhando!!!
Abraço e boa sorte!!!
My Pratt and Whitney has the same directional set up I was able to pull my entire head off and access it all from the bottom. I had to put new Drive dogs in the gears for forward and reverses . Those Headstart bolts in the front were a bitch to get to but it’s possible
Well done Keith.
First Headstock you ever removed ,, great job, i'm waiting for the video's when the old girl kicks your ass going back together ? This is better than watching Brain Surgery , its going to be a challenge for the ole Master Machinist See Ya'll
Pearl is on the Mend, Speedy Recovery Pearl.......
I thought Buffy was a great series, I do believe this is going to be even better.
My OCD is screaming at me: "Paint it!!!", "Paint it!!!"
Me Too
He is going spin it FAST. He is right. FLAMES are needed. RAT FINK style. With an Eight Ball Shift Knob somewhere..
Thanks for sharing 👍
Great video sir
Busy lad !!!
Max, and you are not one busy Chap tool......love your channel too....Paul
Great video that was quite a challenge. :o)
Keith, YT is only giving us 360p quality, [probably temporary because it is so new] hard to see the details of your nice work on Pearl! Had to put my "eyecrometers" on lol.
Still processing HD and the 4K I uploaded it as. why it is taking so long is another question! LOL
@@KeithFenner 👍👍
May need an oil cooler, dry sump auxiliary variable speed electric pump fitted in addition, on top of the existing oil system? This ain't Mama's Monarch!
Keith do the 0 mark on the spindle bearings indicate a certain way they need to be installed. off the cuff they are or should be concentric and thus it should not matter but there must be a reason behind stamping that "0" on the bearing races.
Your right original installation it was a rotation location, my bearing supplier guru confirmed that.
I don't know if you've heard of Gear Wrench combination wrenches. Open end is standard, but the box end has a ratchet. Very similar to an old Craftsman design ...
no room for box end even a thin wall
Pearl's Total Hysterectomy - Pt. 5...
That bearing puller "Clamshell" where I worked they always called it a "Cow Pussy".
never heard that one before......
Right! LOL
Hola keith como estas
Que trabajo amigo te va a quedar hermoso pintalo con el color original.bueno yo estoy reparando una ceadora celta. Bien te mando saludos y buen fin de semana amigo
I was just going to give it a clear coat, but now I'm leaning towards a full new paint job, deciding on color choices now, industrial Rust-O-ium Good luck on your restore project as well my friend!
@25:00 slinks away from the video...........That's how our old boat was packed...found when the packing was replaced with dripless seals...
Like a metal puzzle
Painting can wait until the lathe is up and running properly.
Keith, buddy, you're bouncing a lot of steel on the ways there... this seems common throughout this series... were you gonna scrape them? I think I may recall something like that, but even so... surely there's some precaution that could be taken to protect them?
LOL there are all three drives in this gearbox splines and shifting cogs and the gears with teeth! LOL some of the gears have drive cogs on the side of them.
That's okay about the sound, I can read lips.
Video has major buffering issues but still a good job Keith.
Still processing HD and the 4K I uploaded it as. why it is taking so long is another question! LOL
I just watched it all the way through and saw no problems at all (and my internet connection is not the best).
Go big.. take it and have the ways grinded dead flat and level. Do the same to the rest of the cross slides, etc... You're in this deep. Imagine what that big ole lathe would cost if you bought it new today? $100k?
With all the work your doing I would just go ahead a paint it .By the time you clean all the bad paint that's lifting off just paint it
that shaft (the one with the handle that you pulled with the slide hammer) isn't spinning so an o-ring would work, no need for a lip seal (I think an o-ring would actually be better suited even since that's on the bottom and not above the oil level)
7/8 and a impactdriver maybe
Are you going to remember where all these parts go? Lol
that is what I was wondering how everything is remembered......very impressive to say the least
He's videoing it. It's the best assembly documentation you can have.
This episode Keith completely strips and 80 year old and likes what he sees, will he give her the shaft next week? Subscribe to see. LOL
For some reason only 360p video quality is available.
Still processing HD and the 4K I uploaded it as. why it is taking so long is another question! LOL
@@KeithFenner That's all right Keith, I have enjoyed Pearl's entrails even is SD and I will watch again in HD :)
Hi Keith, I've just had a message saying I've won a prize ,and to email you straight away, I take it someone's hacking your sight, ?. And I should ignore this,? Best wishe's Stuart UK.
Yes there is a scam going on by a troll and promising everyone a gift. If I responded to your comment or anyone's comment, on my videos, with me stating you have, then It would be true. I have been giving this a lot of thought as an alternative to the Box give a ways, I use to have. Cheers, Keith
@@KeithFenner Hi Keith thanks for clearing that up, cheers mate, best wishe's to you and Lisa, Stuart UK.
That's really a lot of parts to keep tract
Hi Keith Lost a few days Personal matter
why is this 360 p only
Because it takes UA-cam longer to encode the higher resolution versions. Some people keep the video private until it encodes, but that has other negative effects.
Still processing HD and the 4K I uploaded it as. why it is taking so long is another question! LOL
@@KeithFenner hmmm youtube..........
@@KeithFenner The chip shortage is limiting the ability for cloud computing providers to provision new capacity.
@@ickipoo Send it in to them on floppies.
quality of the video is bad something is going wrong
Still processing HD and the 4K I uploaded it as. why it is taking so long is another question! LOL Maybe UA-cam is failing now!
I just sent them a message, Been a half a day and the video quality is not been processed at the 4K I uploaded it as, seem Rumble had no problems. Just saying!
oké i love the video's
cogs are wheels with teeth put on them, gears have teeth cut into them......lol call yourself an engineer, you should be a miller as wind mills have cogs.....have fun
And now no audio.
LOL you can still read right?
