Show us what goes on outside the hole in the wall…I thought those hydraulic levers were for an old automobile lift, until I watched the video of the 31 foot pipe…thanks Zack, Paul
Good video, I've made lots of companion flanges from blind flanges when we didn't have any. Suggestion for future video - If your lathe is capable of metric threads, are you able to release the half nuts between passes? Our Pacemaker and Yamazaki lathe could do metric, but you could not release the half nuts between passes. You had to keep them locked and reverse the lathe to get the thread to be timed correctly with the next pass. They both had thread counters that worked well with SAE threads but would not stay timed correctly with metric. Never understood why.
Thread lead screws are either metric or imperial, they can though gearing be made to cut any thread. However the dial will only work with whatever system it was manufactured to either metric or imperial. For use of the dial in the other system so to speak, you can release the half nut noting what index mark you were on, stop then reverse the spindle and reengage the half nut at the same dial mark to wind the carriage back to starting position. At that point you may if you like release the half nut then immediately stop the spindle then make in feed adjustments, start the spindle to thread and engage half nut as soon as the one dial mark you were using lines up. It sounds more complex than it really is. Abom79 has a great video on that technique.
You need a sonic the hedgehog 🦔 logo or a roadrunner logo in your business logo or shirts or something with how fast you are 😂. Nice work love it I’m not a machinist I can do some basics maybe at like 1-20th your speed lol I’m a welder fabricator I started watching your videos on instagram a while back nice work man 👍🍻
Nice work. Thanks for the video. Get ready for the safety-singers typing up a storm about gloves and lathes……………love it. Keep the videos coming.
@@OgiveBC appreciate it!! My videos will prove them wrong!! I forgot more about machine work than most!! 😂😂😂

Good to see somebody getting up on the old man side of bed…I do that every day…cheers, Paul
