    Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge and experience. Life has taught me that there are two kinds of people: those that take and those that give. It's obvious which you are. Thank you for giving so generously of your time and expertise! One video at a time, you are making the world a better place. Thanks!

    Just to follow up. I went home and did exactly as you recommended, center drilled, no.7 pilot hole, drilled to .4960" with a D bit, then reamed at 950 rpm with .2500" chucking reamer using fluid and backing the tool out a few times to clear chips with compressed air. Checked my hole with the pin gauges and nailed it, stayed within .0005" of the desired .2500". Thanks again MrPete! Material was 6061-T6 Al.

    This is an unbelievably good set of videos.
    Thank you Mr Pete for providing such a range of subjects, each treated with just the right amount of detail to properly learn the technique under consideration.
    I studied 'metalwork' as it was called at school (now 40+ years ago) and to this day use all the techniques learned there in my hobby workshop. Your videos have extended my skills way beyond that level. Just great! From another 'Mr Pete' in UK

  • @mrpete222
    @mrpete222  12 років тому +1

    When reaming blind holes--back out reamer several times & blow chips out of hole--they sometimes pack in the hole. Also, reamers have a chamfer or taper on the end, so allow for that. I like to drill & ream extra deep to allow for all that.

    floating reamer holders are used for chambering new gun barrels. The reamer itself is typically piloted to the caliber of the bore. When the reamer enters the barrel it follows the pilot which follows the axis of the bore, that way you get a chamber precisely aligned with the bore. Pacific Tool & Guage has both piloted reamers and floating reamer holders, as do most of the gun parts suppliers

  • @mrpete222
    @mrpete222  11 років тому

    If you are reaming while this shaft is in the wood lathe, just support it with the tailstock center & use plenty of oil. beginning with the roughing & then smoothing with the finishing. A lot of funny things happen ina school shop.

  • @mrrice5274
    @mrrice5274 9 років тому +3

    @mrpete222 Mr. Pete sometimes when I need a part to "float" so that it automatically finds it's own center I will attach it solidly to my drill table but leave the table loose so the table can move a little. Of course I will get the part as close to center as possible before drilling. This method has worked well for me in the past and it is also a safe method. And thank you so much for all your great videos. I have really learned a lot from you.

    Awesome videos, can't wait to watch more. It makes perfect sense to do what you are doing with the drill press. However, it probably deserves more explanation such as, why it's ok to do what you are doing and when maybe you should be using a vise. I only bring it up because I just about lost the tip of my finger doing something very similar on a drill press. ;) Your reaction time is much slower when you're tensed up holding a piece of work like that. Anyhow, thanks again for the videos!

    A reamer cuts on its sides, not its end. Use a bottoming drill or and end mill to square up the bottom of a hole.

    @mrpete222 I remember this from the toolroom quite clearly, that feeling of having just reamed out a hole looking down the bore and realising the drill has cut slightly larger than the reamer, I used to get around it by using two pilot drills i.e for a 12mm hole I would drill 6mm, then 10mm, then finally 11.5mm followed by the 12mm reamer it takes a couple more minutes but the final drill removing just 1.5mm gives a accurate hole pre reaming. By the way nice videos keep them coming. All the best

  • @thefuture2025
    @thefuture2025 12 років тому

    Thank you very much for your reply and advice. I am going to try that out tonight on some test pieces, center drill, pilot to 1/8, drill to .2460 (D bit), ream to .2500" and see what the pin gauges tell me. I might also try using a 15/62 end mill and finishing with the .2500" reamer. Can you ream in the mill as long as you keep your setup or is the drill press always preferred to allow reamer to self center? The work is with Al 6061 and my lowest RPM setting is 270, maybe that's too high?

    First off, Mr. Pete, thank you for all your machining videos, learned alot that I can use in my shop. Question, when you were drilling the casting on the drill press and holding it with your hand (VERY DANGEROUS), you said you did it because you wanted the part to float and no to get a bell hole, couldnt you center punch, then use center drill to pinch the part to your bed then clamp it down, then do your drilling and reaming?

  • @tonytiger75
    @tonytiger75 14 років тому

    When machine reaming I always stop rotation and just pull straight out so there's no more cutting while you're backing out.
    On CNC mills I've run a reaming operation is usually set up this way too.
    Half the speed twice the feed

    @gohuskies583 14 років тому

    Hey tubalcain, another great video. This might be basic to you, but for novices like me just starting out, the basics are needed. One question I have is how did you feel confident that the piece would not spin on you when you were drilling on the drill press. I am always concerned about that and will continue to play it safe, but was just wondering was it becaus it was aluminum that you didnt hold it with a clamp or other?

  • @gwheyduke
    @gwheyduke 3 роки тому

    Purchased some huge ( long) reemers at a show and tried to use them in the 10" lathe.
    1 inch for reaming a model engine cylinder. The flutes would catch in the work every time. Didn't know you weren't supposed to use power! Any special technique other than what you showed for larger sized reamers? One inch up to 1-1/8 ?

    • @mrpete222
      @mrpete222  3 роки тому +1

      I would say just this. Avoid using those huge reamers on small work pieces. Use a boring bar. It takes a lot of power to turn a big reamer

    Hi MrPete, thanks a million for sharing these informative videos, I have learned a great deal from your channel. I have a question about reaming blind holes. I want to bore a hole to a .900" depth and clean it up to within .0005" of .2500". Ive been trying to do my research on reaming blind holes and the information on the procedure varies quite a bit from person to person, enough to make me question the straightforwardness of the procedure, do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

  • @Agenthoover
    @Agenthoover 12 років тому

    I agree, excellent videos and channel... im actually teaching myself some minor lathe work for some projects i have, which leads me to the following question.... if i wanted to drill some half inch stock half the way through would a reamer give me a flat bottom hole and get rid of the cone shape bottom that a drill bit would leave behind, if not, how would i go about getting a flat bottom in the hole, thanks,...btw keep up with the videos, i want to be at pro level too some day ... haha

    Hi mrpete222, I'm modifying an OLD wood lathe to accept Morse taper tools. This involves using a set of reamers (coarse and finishing) tapered to create a MT#1 tapered hole in the arbor. It was originally .500 bar that I replaced with .500 x .120 wall tubing. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed? I'm a retired Vocational Agriculture instructor and really appreciate your videos, particularly the humor about students. Thank you for the well done videos, a feel like I'm back in school.

    Mr. Pete,I love all of these great videos you've posted. I've watched all of your videos I could find on reamers (Hand, Chucking, Expandable, straight/spiral, etc.), but in looking through a catalog last night, I see "Drill / Reamer" combination bits. What exactly are these and are they any good? I'm assuming they are just hardened drill bits essentially, but with a narrower cutting head and the Flutes on the shaft expand the hole to the correct diameter... If so, what spindle speed would be appropriate?I am assuming quite a bit regarding these hybrids; I wouldn't be surprised if all my assumptions were wrong though. Thank you Sir for sharing your knowledge with all of us.M.

  • @mrpete222
    @mrpete222  12 років тому

    Try drilling to within .oo2" & then reaming.
    Also--the reamer must be brand new--never touch a piece of steel.

    I'm reaming a brass tube with an ID of .2490 with a 6.5mm (.2559) reamer, but it has repeatedly caused my lathe to seize. any suggestions?
    I use cutting fluid, I peck, I clear chips, I do everything I can think of, but it is causing me so many problems...

  • @Panzerzimmerpflanze
    @Panzerzimmerpflanze 10 років тому

    I've had a heck of a time avoiding chatter when hand reaming with a straight fluted reamer and tap wrench - every time I try I end up with light consistent chatter, despite the reamer being new, sharp, well lubricated, frequently cleaned and never turned in reverse. I've tried with two separate reamers in a variety of mild steels and always get the same result, so I feel like it's something I'm doing.

    • @mrpete222
      @mrpete222  10 років тому

      Make sure you are removing only a few thou when reaming. Try different feed rates. Use spiral fluted reamers

    • @Panzerzimmerpflanze
      @Panzerzimmerpflanze 10 років тому

      mrpete222 In this case it's reaming chambers for a revolver - reamers are commercial 45acp chamber reamers - I've tried only doing a turn or two per cleaning and using almost no pressure all the way to putting heavy pressure to break through the chatter but result always seems the same. I suspect a spiral flute would help, however I have yet to encounter them as chamber reamers.
      I've read some discussions on putting more pressure on a reamer when being run in a lathe to break through the chatter, but I don't have access to a lathe at the moment so am somewhat stuck.
      Thanks for the quick reply as well!

    Mr. Pete,
    I know you are terribly busy and have loads on your plate, but am hoping you can point me in the right direction. I was recently given a Burke #4 horizontal milling machine. The spindle of this machine is a B&S #9 taper. I would like to make a arbor for it with a MT2 socket. The reason I would like to make this arbor is because I have a set of MT2 collets I would like to use on the machine to hold end mills. I have watched your reamers videos and taper turning videos. I have also ordered a pair of MT2 reamers (Roughing and Finishing). To make the MT2 socket, will I need to rough bore the hole close to MT2 then Rough Ream and then Finish ream? Or can I drill a hole close to the small end size of the MT2 and rough the taper out with the roughing reamer, then finish it with the finishing reamer?
    Any advise would be appreciated if you have time.
    Regards,
    Joe

      Now that your question, is in the form of a comment, I am able to dictate the answer rather than type it. And makes it much easier for me. Although sometimes when I dictate, there will be errors in the wording. They do not have the voice recognition fully developed yet.

    • @mrpete222
      @mrpete222  6 років тому

      To answer the question, I would say you need to bore it before reaming. Otherwise I would be too much material to remove even with a roughing reamer.

      @MyHeap 6 років тому

      Thank you Mr. Pete for the help with my question. I appreciate it. So as a follow up, I guess the purpose of the roughing reamer is to get the correct taper if your bored taper is a little off?

    @UKenGB 10 років тому

    You mention that the 'hand' reamers must not be used under power. Why?
    Visually the difference just seems to be the square end on a hand reamer, but is there some other fundamental difference that dictates how they can be used?

    • @mrpete222
      @mrpete222  10 років тому

      They are usually a little shorter & more ridgid. Hand reamers are tapered for he first 1'2 inch or so and that is where they do their cutting.
      Power reamers do most of the cutting on the chamfer.

    • @UKenGB
      @UKenGB 10 років тому

    You shouldn't withdraw a reamer under power. Turn off the power, then withdraw the reamer. Reaming should also be done at roughly a third of the speed for an equivalent sized drill bit.

      Agree. Hand holding is very bad practice particularly for a drill this size.

    Drilling like that on a drill press is a bit dangerous. I've had the drill bit get caught in the material, causing the material to spin rapidly or fly off.
    I know you are experienced with this, but perhaps some new people who are looking for guidance might get hurt trying it.

    Primitive Pete, Crescent wrench used backwards 😆 Seriously these are great videos but I am always surprised at the misuse of tools and the disregard for safety coming from a teacher.

    Holding the work with your hand is very dangerous and you should know better. Ask me how I know? Plenty of stiches and near broken bones to prove it. I would expect better from you.

      @@mrpete222 Not a good example to "teach" beginners though. Very bad practice. I've seen many people injured this way particularly with steel and hungry metals like brass and bronze that will grab the drill bit. Also when the drill breaks through thin sheet material.
