The Stroken Spline Part 4
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Stroken Spline; is a video of my project creating a splined coupling for a custom modified drive to a winch assembly. The splined coupling has a spline that matches the drive motor and the other end is made to slip over a keyed shaft. As I set up to create the spline bore and the rest of the shaping that goes into the project, I have to modify my machine accessories and fab some tooling to getter done. I give you a quickie demo on setting up an index head for a combination of 14 teeth spline and I show a good demo on creating the form tools into the shape to cut the splines and keyway. As usual I may also have a few regular habits that I think nothing of and you pick up on, giving us more comments to follow the video. Thanks for watching and visit the Wright Store to order your new hat, shirts or sweatshirts.
Cheers, Keith ;{)------
I joined Maker Studios & so can you!

Hi Keith nice to see those gear tooth verniers back in action .In my gear cutting days I would grind my tool bit and go all the way one cut all three sides .You must have had 16 hours in that part
Great video. A lot of work to prepare for this job. Great description. Thank you for sharing.
A safe place for the tools... does that mean you lost them? It does for me. LOL Thanks Keith!
Thanks for that information on silver soldering steels that don't lose hardness easily. As a result, I found some cool steels that I will be using in the future. CPM REX 121, if I can get my hands on it.
For guys like us that "safe place" is very safe. Only to be found when we are looking for something completely different.
Great video series, Keith. That "jumping jack" attachment (broaching ram?) is rare. I dug around the x-net and couldn't find one. I'm sure if you typed in the part number it would pop up. Even the K&T manuals, brochures, and catalogs are pricy! I researched the Aliss-Chalmers Company (conglomerate) history. I'll be digging into K&T next. The major machine tool companies' histories are interesting.
JB weld on a greased part works well to accurately transfer a profile.
Hi Keith
This is add on to trick shots comment below, I did a video showing my buddy's comparator, an introduction to the tool, now I really understand how that tool can be used for measuring...
Boy, that KT machine with the attachments is just tits!
Best regards
Chuck
Shutup and show showing tels more than a thousand words :-) not take it to serious :-)
Great job getting the shaping head and dividing head indicated true.
Super secret place... hehe, :-)
Keith, I would seriously like to know how you go about removing work from the 3 jaw chuck and then re-insert it and still have it run true. I have tried this numerous times and I just cannot seem to get the work to run true once I have removed it. I notice that you twist the work as you tighten the jaws. Is there any special technique other than that?
Keith, Very cool set up in the index head.
Any concern about the table drooping a bit with the index head on the end? It took the chain fall to lift it. I bet it weighs a bunch.
Best wishes,
Eric
Machines can hold a lot more weight than you think but you can always add more weight to the other side to even the pressure out on the ways. ;{)-------
Glad to see your videos back after the holidays. I also put stuff in my super secret place...
N00b question: is there any reason to mount the indicator to the tool and indicate off the work vs. vice versa? Was thinking it'd be easier to read the dial if it wasn't moving. :) Also: this video set made me jones for a shaper head for my Bridgeport for the first time ever, and I've never even had a spline or gear job! You tool addiction enabler, you... ^_^
When your indicator is jumping at 10 minutes is that because of drag during the forward push?I wasn't sure why you started to adjust the way you did but it got there.
At 20 you talk about purchasing this mill, thanks for the suggestions it does seem like an all around great one. Keep posting!
Keith, sorry for the off topic comment .... But I like your hat style....
great work mate its always great to see a good versatile machinist with a get it done attitude like yourself ,keep up the great videos
You just have to love those "Super safe Spots". So safe it keeps you from finding them, so you can't lose them! :-)
I really look up to the maintenance and precautions you do for your machines. Really good habits for me to get into.
Great videos ! : ]
And kissing your tool just sounds so wrong.if you know what i mean.
Hi Keith:
At 26:10, when you are parting off the spline tool, you can see a tapped hole in the side of the tool post.
I have seen this hole on every tool post I have examined, but I have no idea what it is for.
Do you know?
Honestly, I have never paid it any attention, but would think it handy to set up a post and clamp assembly for a accessories like magnifying lens, shields and or coolant nozzle supporting. ;{)------
+Keith Fenner +Andy Wander I just looked at my old Dorian post and that hole appears to hold a retaining set screw for the wedge mechanism.
is the stroke not determined by the rotating peg?
why does it retract faster then it pushes?
Because the center of the rotating pivot is off center, from the sliding ram and the sliding bushing allows for the crank action in and out from the center line creating a longer sweep on the return stroke, if the spindle is in the right rotation direction, giving it a faster speed. In the still photos of the sliding bushing you can pick up on the off set, created in the casting of the head itself. ;{)-------
Keith, I was going to ask about that but you've already described it. Would that be considered a Whitworth mechanism?
Curious. You have a video with a shaper being used. This attachment looks like a shaper. Any reason for using the horizontal mill instead of the purpose built shaper?
What can't YOU fix???????
Magic!!!!!!
All your videos are great, but seeing the K&T going is a real treat!
