    Just some minor tips for using cold blue.
    Make sure the part is as de-greased as possible, solvents like acetone work well and evaporate fast.
    And to get the best possible finish, warm it up until it's uncomfortable to touch, but it doesn't need to be any hotter.
    Blue the part.
    That's it. It will give far better results.

    Tony, I'm not a machinist (have some lathe training, but not much practice) but after watching this video (and when the need came) I've made a drawbar too! There is this small press drill / milling machine at work. The guys were using a stock threaded rod with some nuts to simulate the drawbar since the original had the threads stripped. You can't imagine how that annoyed me. I took matters into my hands and made one! Thanks for the video. Keep them coming! ;-)

    very crisp video as usual but... especially useful for me because I've just bought a 1930s Huré mill here in France and it does not seem to have a drawbar... Now I know how straightforward it is to make one (sort of).
    Thanks for the inspiration. I would have never bought that mill without your videos, making me feel (for no real reason) that I needed such a machine. My wife may think i'm nuts, but I won't regret it...

    • @ronwilken5219

      @barkebaat Just like shaping wood except the glue(welding) is stronger and when you cut it (metal) short you can make it bigger again. Wood? You just burn it and make the part over. Done both, wood and metal. Still trying to decide which one is the more satisfying. Both materials are as expensive as each other now days.

    • @ReverendTed
      @ReverendTed 3 роки тому +2

      It appears (based on a few minutes of Googling) that it can be used to designate left-hand thread, but could also be used to designate the grade of a nut, or that it's metric? What it's being used to designate seems to be dependent on the manufacturer.
      Knowing that, I'd guess that it's being used in this case so that Tony can distinguish it at a glance from his ISO30 drawbar, without having to look at the stamping on the top.

      I'm guessing it's to make it abundantly clear that it's the TPI drawbar, not the metric one. The usual indicator for LH threads (which this is not) is a V groove, not a flat bottomed one like this.

    I’m Really impressed. I was wondering how boring a making drawbar would be, but I was mistaken. I love the methodology of making the bolt head, wow. The blueing was also a nice touch. I was going to make a simple drawbar by using threaded rod and welding a nut on one end but now I think the method in the video is far better.

    • @ThisOldTony
      @ThisOldTony  7 років тому +19

      Usually they mean the nut/bolt has left handed threads. In my case it just serves to distinguish between the two drawbars I now have.

    • @PREjuD1ceD
      @PREjuD1ceD 8 років тому +8

      Ben Clark you never saw a hybrid plasma/donkey saw combo,it was a high end upgrade retro fitted to outdated mechanical hacksaws. It utilises the blade as a guide for the plasma element which as you see does all the cutting,once fitted the blade never "saws" so it never has to be replaced.

    • @luisff7030
      @luisff7030 8 років тому +1

      Ben Clark It's a joke. The plasma doesn't work in that away. The plasma must be a straight line to cut a straight line. It's possible to make the plasma a straight line with UV laser, magnetic field, jet of plasma, but not with a saw.
      During a plasma cut done to the metal and at a presence of oxygen, it's produced red sparks and the color of the cut is changed because the metal is oxidized.

    • @44R0Ndin
      @44R0Ndin 8 років тому +9

      As an auto mechanic (and the son of an auto mechanic), I'd say the only problem with having two different measurement standards is the fact that I need to buy (and use) two different wrench sets. Some of the sizes are "sort of" interchangeable, but the right wrench always fits better in the long run.
      If I've got a particularly difficult or rusty bolt or nut, I'm choosing the "right" one even if I have the "close enough" one in my hand, because living in New York state you run into a lot of rusty threaded fasteners (thanks, road salt).
