Things I've learned in this video: Cast iron machines as steel, chipbreakers in your lathe tool are evil, stop the lathe chuck by hand when the jaws produte, check first with a micrometer, then attack the part ferociously with a file, clean the milling chips with a finger close to the endmill, never ever attemp to clean a machine: The chips add mass and rigidity, and very important: Machining is a force and speed contest, the fastest and strongest machinist win...be sure to tight everything with all of your force.
Dude, when you don't have a cutter with a replaceable plate and you need to keep a soldered tool, a chip breaker is a real evil. This halves the possibility of a new sharpening, and for a real master this is tangible money. As for cleaning the machine, this turner plows in a day so that the word "meow" is pronounced at the end of the day by letters, and I understand it perfectly, it's not about the CNC sitting on a chair and removing finished parts.
THIS operator is the best I've seen on this channel of misfits and questionable machines. He actually knows his stuff and it shows in the little things he does.
@@codprawnI noticed that as well. Using a scrap piece on top of the tool shank is what we were taught in tech college many years ago to preserve the tool shank and prevent swaging damage. I still do it that way to this day.
You are absolutely right. But, having made literally thousands of pounds of steel chips in my 60 year career as a machinist. Even most steels will break chips with the right tool, speeds and feeds. Cast iron isn’t steel. It always breaks. It is inherent in its properties. Steel must be bent to break. This is done with a chip breaker ground into the cutting tool. A thicker chip will break easier than thin chips, making higher feeds more useful when hogging. There are always trade offs, but there is rarely no good excuse for such long and stingy chips.
You stole my words however, the type of steel is unknown. The operator's talent is knowing how to input numeric values on the calculator for the proper change gears to use for the gear pitch and major gear diameter.
You have to factor in that in a culture where people have little,little goes to waste. That long stringy swarf is far easier to collect and sell on too!
@@areyouundoingthatorwhat9181 It's much easier to collect small chips, long stringy chips take up far more space and are more difficult to handle. If you have chips 1/2 to 1 inch long you can fill a 50 gallon drum with far less unused space Vs chips in the 12 inch length range. His access to tooling is less then in western countries where you could just tell you tooling supplier what you want and he'll have to you next day. I'd imagine he has to make comprises with tooling, and likely having a tool that does many jobs is more important then chip uniformity. The fact that you can just walk down a street hand him your old part and he'll make you a new one for I'm sure extremely reasonable price is pretty damn cool.
I use these videos as exercises for new fitter/machinist students to watch and identify dangerous workshop practices that can become dangerous accepted habits - keeping the workplace clean is a very important part of the job - I used to visit many machine shops and could tell the professionalism of the work team by the cleanliness and order of the equipment . when I was pricing a job I would include cleaning the machine and work area as part of the cost of the job - as an apprentice that was the first task to learn - cleanliness and safety of the work area - second lesson was to cultivate a safe attitude and respect for the machine - third lesson was to identify a dangerous situation and be compelled to act to minimise or eliminate the danger -

Thank you Davo, All this ingeniousness and expertise in trades is mostly rubbish because it all generally happens unseen and people with non type background have not a clue. Its why trades have 5 year apprenticeships and a certain level of education. Its what we are trained to do. There are many trades and skills that I admire their level of skill and expertise , but in the end its whats involved and expected in various trades. And as far as safety goes "whats that ?? " Unfortunately life is cheap in those countries and profits are marginal at best, so safety gear and training come down on the list of priorities. Sad but true
@@ScatManAust I’m an old Machinist and I still have 10 fingers but I know one false move and I could have them off. Safty boils down to not being lazy or not being trained. One skill i have learned over the years if you ever hear the little voice in your head say “I should be careful doing this” stop right there! You are about to stab your self with a screwdriver (for example) Maybe I should look up the definition on Genius 🤠
For the amount of expertise on behalf of the workers, I wonder what the U.S. Dollar equivalent would be so far as what was charged for this piece to be made? VERY nice job! Highly under appreciated in my opinion here in the United States with our throwaway society.
The average Pakistani Skilled machinist makes about $200 USD per YEAR! I don’t think you’d be willing to be poor just to say that you don’t live in a throwaway society. Besides, this extreme is unnecessary in a modern state where parts are in ready supply…
@@yamahajapan5351 I guess I did not clarify but the newer generation and other generations just buy new here in the U.S.A. as sometimes what needs to be fixed is just a small modification that costs ~$150 verses paying $1,200 for a new part. I am speaking in general terms not necessarily the part that was made in this video. Plus sometimes the parts are already obsolete due to limited shelf space.
@@jtg2737 well put point. I own an old truck. I've had to make many parts , cause parts are harder to find. So.....l fabricate whatever l need. The thing that bothers me is whenever l go to buy some part for my old truck(69) salesforce look at me like " there's no way bud too too old" , some mechanics won't even look at it. It's because there is more money to be made in all what's readily available. Very sad, sometimes even upsetting.
@@olblu8746 I'm willing to bet the majority of current crop mechanics wouldn't know how to adjust carbs, and set points, and do old school timing. Take it to a boat mechanic. I'd bet they'd have a look.
Yeah we throw it all away. Including this lathe he is working with. But we replace it with programmable machines that would do this part in about 20 minutes. Complete. Of course our throwing away as you call it, is melting it down to make 1000% better machines. Funny how media portrays north America to the world. But I give the guy credit, it looks like he is in a poor area and is working with what he has. Since India has a large and growing technical machining field, it's odd this man is not working at a shop with much more advanced machines. I am thankful for my early years on manual machines. But it is hard to compete against machines you can literally make dance.set up programming and tweaking a program to its optimal performance is pretty cool.
I understand that there are many cost prohibitive constraints and some cultural differences when it comes to the prioritization of safety. But guys, you've got to include a chip breaker on that tooling (it only requires more labor, which if I understand correctly is not the limitation there). You can't be running a lathe if you don't have any fingers.

I've had to operate my own Machine Shop to First World standards for 50 years and I probably should be angry at myself for not moving to one of these countries where I could have taken so many short cuts if I wanted to take advantage of really cheap labour, non existent health and safety laws and customers' lack of interest in demanding high standards from their suppliers. No wonder manufacturing industries in the West are dying - how can we possibly compete?
I used to work in a machine shop a nice clean area always had a clean workstation I don't see how they can work in filth and when you're doing your calipers you don't throw your calipers down on the machine you don't hit them on things micrometers you don't tighten up on the micrometers when you're measuring something you use your finger to turn it and lay it really soft on the thing that you're cutting you don't tighten up on the micrometers

Hardly limited equipment, they have a gear hobbing machine to cut the gears, if they were doing it with a milling machine and dividing head driven on the end of the bed, then I'd be rather more impressed, however the lack of even the most basic safety and cleanliness is just dreadful, I hate to think of the number of those maimed and worse in these workshops.
for the record this is made out of steel and not cast iron. first turning the shaft then hobbing the gear on a gear hobbing machine with a hob. by the looks of it the material is probably some quenched tempered AISI4142, tho it would really need that tooth hardening and grinding to work long lasting
Great machining my only thing is the equipment being dirty and covered in metal shavings the machines should be cleaned of metal shavings and old cutting oils to keep them operating as efficient as possible but none the less great work
Who , the hack was and is designing these cutting machines ? Myself, physicist - phd and 35+ years in the space industry, I raise my hat in front of such complex 3D machine design !
Incredible work you make my friend perfect and nice job. Congrats you and the others tech team, THANKS for sharing your experience with us. God blessed.

Great job. I wouldn't say 'genius' however. Gear making has been done for 2500 plus years. And most modern countries began using helical gear machines like this 90 years ago. Of course everyone else has moved on but Pakistan is still using technology the British gave them 60 years ago.........
These work is done on street like shops not in modern factories, when rhe part not available, people or mechanic goes to this shops and these people do their work and let the wheel run in pakistan, they are not wealthy people to replace their machines with modern one
I HATE it when the videos have “inserts” promoting the next video that obscures the results of all the work, why why why?? The skill here is undeniable. Overcoming the worn machines’ limitations is very impressive as well as the carefully planned order of work. But I submit there is no need no matter the place or poverty to settle for a dirty and cluttered work space. They don’t have to be as show-boat clean or well-maintained as Japan, Germany, UK, or US but there is no excuse for the level of dirt and debris shown in the video. It is a matter of attitude and culture that allows it.
India steel is not expensive, I wish I had a few tonnes of stock laying around, sure his workplace is a real HAZARD in the making, but hey they are free to do whatever, without some inspector from OSH, Work safety telling them what to do,
The tooth profiles do not look anything alike. The teeth are going to grind and slide and heat up and wear out quite quickly. That is, even if the part is heat treated, which is unlikely.
It's useless if not heat treated, so why not just anneal & weld up the old one? Gotta be quicker & better then a probably unknown steel and you've got the old tooth profile to follow.
Wow, a guy with tools that knows how to use them, and is also competent. So much better than the common Indian/Pakistani videos where the guy has a hammer, a torch, and a file and works in a scrap yard.

Shhhhhh, genius machinist just used a gear hobbing machine to make a pinion gear :o Nice hobber though. :D *not sure on tapping the shaft in the chuck to make it DTI round? The chuck looks good so it would make no difference. Maybe turn a few degrees and read again for natural jaw error. (Usually works for me)
In these vids (and in much of Asia language wise) steel and iron are interchangeable. When you pop the local dialect into Google translate, you get "iron". If you think about it, constituent wise, modern steel is actually "purer" iron than most cast or wrought iron types, until you get into high alloy types of steel. Low alloy steel is 97% or more iron, while industrial iron is lucky to hit 95%. The reason "iron" chips are particles rather than strings is all that excess carbon, making it hard but not so tough. So, technically, WE have it backwards, not those ancient languages, lol

Its why trades have 5 year apprenticeships and a certain level of education.
Its what we are trained to do.
There are many trades and skills that I admire their level of skill and expertise , but in the end its whats involved and expected in various trades.
And as far as safety goes "whats that ?? " Unfortunately life is cheap in those countries and profits are marginal at best, so safety gear and training come down on the list of priorities.
Sad but true
@@ScatManAust I’m an old Machinist and I still have 10 fingers but I know one false move and I could have them off.
Safty boils down to not being lazy or not being trained. One skill i have learned over the years if you ever hear the little voice in your head say “I should be careful doing this” stop right there! You are about to stab your self with a screwdriver (for example)
Maybe I should look up the definition on Genius 🤠
nice to see he has a clock to true the shaft up. usually they use a bit of bent wire in a scribing block.
For the amount of expertise on behalf of the workers, I wonder what the U.S. Dollar equivalent would be so far as what was charged for this piece to be made? VERY nice job! Highly under appreciated in my opinion here in the United States with our throwaway society.
The average Pakistani Skilled machinist makes about $200 USD per YEAR! I don’t think you’d be willing to be poor just to say that you don’t live in a throwaway society. Besides, this extreme is unnecessary in a modern state where parts are in ready supply…
@@yamahajapan5351 I guess I did not clarify but the newer generation and other generations just buy new here in the U.S.A. as sometimes what needs to be fixed is just a small modification that costs ~$150 verses paying $1,200 for a new part. I am speaking in general terms not necessarily the part that was made in this video. Plus sometimes the parts are already obsolete due to limited shelf space.
@@jtg2737 well put point. I own an old truck. I've had to make many parts , cause parts are harder to find. So.....l fabricate whatever l need. The thing that bothers me is whenever l go to buy some part for my old truck(69) salesforce look at me like " there's no way bud too too old" , some mechanics won't even look at it. It's because there is more money to be made in all what's readily available. Very sad, sometimes even upsetting.
@@olblu8746 I'm willing to bet the majority of current crop mechanics wouldn't know how to adjust carbs, and set points, and do old school timing. Take it to a boat mechanic. I'd bet they'd have a look.
Yeah we throw it all away. Including this lathe he is working with. But we replace it with programmable machines that would do this part in about 20 minutes. Complete. Of course our throwing away as you call it, is melting it down to make 1000% better machines. Funny how media portrays north America to the world. But I give the guy credit, it looks like he is in a poor area and is working with what he has. Since India has a large and growing technical machining field, it's odd this man is not working at a shop with much more advanced machines. I am thankful for my early years on manual machines. But it is hard to compete against machines you can literally make dance.set up programming and tweaking a program to its optimal performance is pretty cool.
I understand that there are many cost prohibitive constraints and some cultural differences when it comes to the prioritization of safety. But guys, you've got to include a chip breaker on that tooling (it only requires more labor, which if I understand correctly is not the limitation there). You can't be running a lathe if you don't have any fingers.
thank you
Very impressive and Sign of Hardworking with very technical minute Calculations and skills ..... Thumbs up bro
thank you
Am not a machinest.....just observing how man can come up with methods to mold the surroudnings. I wish I would have access to such tools & equipment. Looks beautiful like a piece of art.
I am a machinist and this looks like third world garbage.
@@Tsamokie the machine is not too bad
The handling methods, however, qre going to give me a migraine
@@andresmartinezramos7513 It is all tird world inferior tech and procedures
17:44 at this point in the video im just preying all the machinary is working rite. and true mesurments, with accuracy. the men are if not way better than the machines themselves. good job my fellow mechanics!
I learnt that an expert with a worn out lathe is better than a novice with a brand new one!
A masterpiece, perfect work and that with such old machines.
not so perfect when he has to run a file on it but the easiest thing to do to compensate for the sloppiness of the machine i guess
Your Amazon order is ready for shipment.
excellent helical gear making. I want to learn it
Man, grind a chip breaker in that cutter. Those long razor sharp ribbons make my skin crawl.
During the sped-up sections I swear I heard Jawas and Ewoks.
That’s a steel bar. Cast iron would produce powdery black chips.
😍😍👍👍
Jaki z niego geniusz jak nie potrafi naostrzyć noża żeby łamał wióry.Sam kiedyś zginie od wstążkowego wióra.Pół wieku temu w Rosji była stosowana w obróbce tokarskiej metoda szybkościowej obróbki zwana metodą Stachanowa , ale skończyła się kilkoma trupami i rozwaleniem tokarek. Myślałem , że to już się skonczyło , ale widzę , że jeszcze niedouczeni tokarze to próbują i walczą z wiórami.

I've had to operate my own Machine Shop to First World standards for 50 years and I probably should be angry at myself for not moving to one of these countries where I could have taken so many short cuts if I wanted to take advantage of really cheap labour, non existent health and safety laws and customers' lack of interest in demanding high standards from their suppliers. No wonder manufacturing industries in the West are dying - how can we possibly compete?
Видимо тут суеверие, что если перед установкой новой детали сделать приборку станка, то молнией с небес убъет
I used to work in a machine shop a nice clean area always had a clean workstation I don't see how they can work in filth and when you're doing your calipers you don't throw your calipers down on the machine you don't hit them on things micrometers you don't tighten up on the micrometers when you're measuring something you use your finger to turn it and lay it really soft on the thing that you're cutting you don't tighten up on the micrometers
I love the vernier with the grads worn off!
cheap chinese calipers. the lines are laser etched really shallow. Not like good ones that are engraved and painted in. $10 for crap $200 for quality verniers.
I should show this to my friends and family who gasp when I use a saw or a grinder without safety glasses lol
moi j'aurais dégrossi toute la pièce a 1 mm de la cote finale ensuite j'aurais vidé mon bac a copeaux pour être en sécurité pour pas que les copeaux s'enroulent autour du mandrin et les gorges de circlips je les auraient fait a la fin en mettant le modèle sur la machine a chaque fois pour faciliter le travail conseil dun tourneur et fraiseur depuis 41 ans , bon courage a vous
It is truly amazing that this can be done with the tools available. It is a triumph of expertise over coming limited equipment. Thanks. Cheers.
Hardly limited equipment, they have a gear hobbing machine to cut the gears, if they were doing it with a milling machine and dividing head driven on the end of the bed, then I'd be rather more impressed, however the lack of even the most basic safety and cleanliness is just dreadful, I hate to think of the number of those maimed and worse in these workshops.
Nice pair of safety sandals he has there.
Safety oriented Company, what could go wrong?....
He was holding his finger worryingly close to that hob while it was running.
for the record this is made out of steel and not cast iron. first turning the shaft then hobbing the gear on a gear hobbing machine with a hob. by the looks of it the material is probably some quenched tempered AISI4142, tho it would really need that tooth hardening and grinding to work long lasting
There should be a society set up to prevent cruelty to lathes.
Great and Brilliant job ...!!! regards from kuala lumpur ...!
I assume the next step is to get the new gears ground and hardened before it's put into service.
No way. Its used as is.
@@Bluebirdiran I'm afraid youre right😉
Great machining my only thing is the equipment being dirty and covered in metal shavings the machines should be cleaned of metal shavings and old cutting oils to keep them operating as efficient as possible but none the less great work
Who , the hack was and is designing these cutting machines ? Myself, physicist - phd and 35+ years in the space industry, I raise my hat in front of such complex 3D machine design !
The metal peals off like 1045 shafting not cast iron which cuts into flakes and powder.
These guys are amazing as far as I'm concerned. Side by side comparisons be damned, job gets done. Fast as hell, no premadonna crap going on either.
Yeah, right? What is a lost finger, right? We've got the other nine...
And no safety glasses to boot!
From the thumbnail and description it looked like the guy was going to do it all on the lathe.
Incredible work you make my friend perfect and nice job.
Congrats you and the others tech team, THANKS for sharing your experience with us.
God blessed.

Getting it done, pretty cool really.
Ok, but where is second part of production process? I mean thermal treatment like hardening, tempering...? What kind of steel was used?
Lubricating oil at the end just come out of a Hino with its 20k mile oil change.
Great job. I wouldn't say 'genius' however. Gear making has been done for 2500 plus years. And most modern countries began using helical gear machines like this 90 years ago. Of course everyone else has moved on but Pakistan is still using technology the British gave them 60 years ago.........
thank
These work is done on street like shops not in modern factories, when rhe part not available, people or mechanic goes to this shops and these people do their work and let the wheel run in pakistan, they are not wealthy people to replace their machines with modern one
Excelente trabajo mis hermanos excelente video saludos cordiales desde Monterrey NL México 🇲🇽 y le mando su merecido like 👍👍
I HATE it when the videos have “inserts” promoting the next video that obscures the results of all the work, why why why?? The skill here is undeniable. Overcoming the worn machines’ limitations is very impressive as well as the carefully planned order of work. But I submit there is no need no matter the place or poverty to settle for a dirty and cluttered work space. They don’t have to be as show-boat clean or well-maintained as Japan, Germany, UK, or US but there is no excuse for the level of dirt and debris shown in the video. It is a matter of attitude and culture that allows it.
India steel is not expensive, I wish I had a few tonnes of stock laying around, sure his workplace is a real HAZARD in the making, but hey they are free to do whatever, without some inspector from OSH, Work safety telling them what to do,
Every lathe worker knows safety like his 3 fingers
The tooth profiles do not look anything alike. The teeth are going to grind and slide and heat up and wear out quite quickly. That is, even if the part is heat treated, which is unlikely.
It's useless if not heat treated, so why not just anneal & weld up the old one? Gotta be quicker & better then a probably unknown steel and you've got the old tooth profile to follow.
10 seconds in I can see what a genius he is facing a part 10 feet out of the chuck without a rest or center
Wow, a guy with tools that knows how to use them, and is also competent. So much better than the common Indian/Pakistani videos where the guy has a hammer, a torch, and a file and works in a scrap yard.
This guys got some very creative way of thinking but man does his house keeping skills leave one to question weather his laziness is not worth the talent !
Thats steel.
Nice work!

Very good work !
Somebody should give these guys a CNC machine

It's not cast iron It's cerbon steel shaft

We do same thing and We far from a geniuses .If We were own the company.There is a lot more to cutting gears and it’s a trade of its own.
thank you
Ive always wondered how fluting on rifle barrels are done, now I now the concept...
I can’t believe he’s wearing flip flops! That’s hilarious!
I love how these guys are giving themselves a massive pat on the back for doing something that the US figured out 150 years ago. Yet Here in the US 150 years ago, we STILL had far better work environments, buildings, safety practices and pay then these fools have today.
This is an intelligent man which makes his absolute ignorance of any simple safety practice impossible to understand
It is called skill and experience.

What was the machine they used to actually machine the actual gear?
Genius! That’s laying it on a bit thick mate, time to recalibrate your understanding of genius dude!
This is no cast iron , this is steel 😁
Shhhhhh, genius machinist just used a gear hobbing machine to make a pinion gear :o Nice hobber though. :D *not sure on tapping the shaft in the chuck to make it DTI round? The chuck looks good so it would make no difference. Maybe turn a few degrees and read again for natural jaw error. (Usually works for me)
Cast steel
In these vids (and in much of Asia language wise) steel and iron are interchangeable. When you pop the local dialect into Google translate, you get "iron".
If you think about it, constituent wise, modern steel is actually "purer" iron than most cast or wrought iron types, until you get into high alloy types of steel. Low alloy steel is 97% or more iron, while industrial iron is lucky to hit 95%.
The reason "iron" chips are particles rather than strings is all that excess carbon, making it hard but not so tough. So, technically, WE have it backwards, not those ancient languages, lol
Very Informative. What about the urger. How do you make it
