      At one place I worked we had a lathe with .010 taper every foot. When my fellow machinist asked to show him how to turn it on I absolutely knew I was in for a day of under rated entertainment. I was right. When asked how I dealt with the taper I told him he needed to watch and turn the cross slide in .001” for every .935” of dial rotation. I know, I know, I’ll burn in hell. It was worth it. I didn’t know that little lugger could hold that much round stock. Plus? I’m not even a machinist, don’t ask don’t tell was my policy.

      But trust me, 3D printers are the worst if you're into this stuff, you're gonna buy printers to print printers which print printers before printing printers themselves that will then print printers that... Yeah. But really, I only enjoy the technology and all the building stuff, not the printing itself, that part doesn't really matter to me. Actually, if I had the money and space, a little lathe is something I desire way more than 3D printers, just because I hate plastic and love metal, but right now, 3D printers are what I can afford and it's just more practical. But some day I'll start working with metal...

      There is an empirical test for when you have too many lathes. If any of them are under tarps, outside, you have too many lathes. This also applies for other tools.

    Love the new lathe - which should come in rather handy chasing ever more perfect precision!
    I’ve also begun to notice pleasantly subtle differences in these videos since their humble beginnings. It’s almost like that initial production polish, that set your channel apart from others, is starting to reveal a nice patina and minor wear patterns unique to your personality and humor.

They may be interested in his channel, too. But they'll never know what it is if you assume everybody knows every youtube shorthand. 🤷
      IMO, Kurtis is a stark contrast to Abom79, who talks and talks and talks and barely does any machining while Kurtis explains exactly what he's doing and then does it. Kurtis is soooo much easier to watch.

    I'm not sure about your comment here about the Cosine Error reaching a minimum when the stylus is parallel to the surface you are measuring. That would make intuitive sense, but i think some (most) of the test indicators out there are compensated to measure most accurately (Smallest cosine error) when the stylus is at 12 degrees between the stylus and the surface being measured. This would make sense, as that would be closer to standard operation, and they would want it to read most accurately the way most users would be using the gauge.

    I began my (hobby) machine operator's ("I'm not a machinist, I'm a guy that owns some machine tools.") journey by buying a Bridgeport-style knee mill, and promptly taking a bit more than a year to get it cleaned up and functioning. The original plan was just cleaning, but the more I cleaned, the more I saw... and the more I saw, the more I saw that needed to be fixed. It's still far from like-new condition and there are still a fair number of kluges/bubba fixes in place, but (almost) everything works, and as long as I am paying attention, I have no trouble landing within half a thou of my target dimensions.
    That experience has been *invaluable* as I got my lathe up and running, and as I am going through the process of getting my "n+1" lathe cleaned up and operational. Some parts (bearings, etc...) I have found to be off-the-shelf industrial parts, some parts I have found to be off-the-shelf industrial parts that can be relatively lightly modified to work (change gears), and still other parts have to be fabricated from scratch (so far, I have mostly used my machine tools to make/modify parts for my other machine tools). Exploded/parts diagrams and reverse engineering skills have been absolute lifesavers in terms of keeping these machines from becoming basket cases looking for a new home.
    Kudos to you for jumping into this thing!

Thats why I enjoy watching your channel, because I see you experiencing these same challenges and see how you meet them head-on and conquer them every time. You inspire me. And when I mess up in my woodworking and ruin a beautiful piece of wood that I put so much hard work into, I think of you and your “box of shame,” smile and painstakingly make a new piece, this time the right way.

    I so enjoy my time with this channel. The pursuit of precision with the firm knowledge of what is possible/ realistic/ relevant and that failure (provided one is honest) has limited consequence. Both my grandfathers' were engineers though there practical and commercial experience took them away from practical tool use. My mother a sculptress and my father a linguist have no confidence to build the world around them. That a solution was in there power rather than at their comission was alien. Latterly I have offered to help them out, however the expectation is lesser for I am a wine merchant. The problem solving of a shelving unit or a garage door repair has brought them out of themselves weirdly. Divergent skills and different processees have become useful rather than confrontational and solutions seem possible. It started with me just buying brass dimmer switches on Amazon.

      @@InheritanceMachining for space constraint and practicality reasons, i sold the lathe you helped me with the VFD on. It still literally brings me to tears thinking about it. However, the proceeds brought a Smithy 13x40 mill lathe in my home garage that i can use everyday and no traveling or stoppage from the wife.
      Recently i noticed some play in the lathe spindle that causes chatter. Taking the gear train apart, the only thing that could possibly allow that kinda play is slop in the spindle bearings. I know using precision tapered roller bearings is the proper way to go, but the spindle wasnt designed for those (even though thats how they refer to those in the drawings). I know they cant be, because there is no way to preload them. Or if the nut that was on the back is how you do it, its not a bulky enough nut to properly put compression onto it. Anyways, with the pulley wheel and clutch mechanism on the spindle, it complicates modifications for improving performance.
      However, now i have a DC motor on stand by from a past project that i am going to mount up top to direct drive the mill head so i can do away with the clutch and drive train parts off the lathe spindle that transfer power to mill head. This will open up the possibilities for modifications to the lathe spindle.
      Im damned determined to make this Smithy perform as good as any shop mill and lathe since it will probably be a long time before i can expand my space and get a proper mill and lathe in the shop. Plus, it just sounds like a fun project. Now i just have to work up the courage to go into the youtube field with it and hopefully start making it where the wife dont have to work if she doesnt want to.

    Honestly, I am actually glad there is work to do and the lathe needs some TLC. Don't get me wrong I feel like I know you know what I mean. I am so looking forward to seeing you pull that thing apart and put it back together. Especially when it is out so much and we/you get to see the fruits of your labor. If it the runout wasn't as much the gain would be nominal but now we get to watch you bring this lathe back into spec and it will be a fun watch. You have a meticulous nature (being kind as I am sure it's a touch of OCD like most of us that call ourselves machinists) but this is going to be a really fun watch. Totally stoked to get started. So NEXT WEEK the tear down begins RIGHT! Come on now, we're hooked and counting on you every week to throw down and avoid the box of shame.....LOL well don't avoid feeding it all together now. That's educational too. All in fun I know how much work it takes to do weekly videos so don't stress and have a WONDERFUL holiday season.

  • @L1m3r
    @L1m3r 2 місяці тому

    It has probably been said before and I'm sorry but I need to do a little nitpicking:
    In a normal 3-phase system for a normal 3-phase motor it is impossible to have "two of the(!) three electrical phases backwards" @2:12
    For a normal 3-phase motor it's irrelevant which phase "comes first" - all that is import is that the order is right. E.g.: 123, 231 & 312 the motor will always spin in the right direction.
    The one(!) and only wrong ways(!) to connect it is 132, 321 & 213
    Now who wants to tell me which phase or phases is/are connected in the wrong order in those one=three case(s)...
    There are only six permutations of 1, 2 & 3. Half of them are right and half of them are wrong and you always need to flip two phases - ANY two phases - to correct "the" wrong order.
    So saying you "connected two of the three phases backwards(!)" will hurt any electrician and turn Nikola Tesla another 120°=(2/3)*pi in his grave. 😞

    This is quite interesting and important topic, lathe straightness and perpendicularity. My first lathe was Atlas 10". And it is built so you can turn the bed around and use the rear end on the front, (it has both ways flat) when the ways gets worn out, you have to drill holes for the lead screw end support and mount the teeth rack on the other side, but you can do it. Imagine if Hardinge would have designed the ways in such way you could just flip the flat plate ways around...

    We were able to calibrate our granite and cast iron surface plates, thanks to an accurate CMM and gauge, which were calibrated externally. Building the 'map' of a large granite surface plate can be formidable, just like your lathe bed. In fact I think your lathe bed is harder than a surface plate, due to the wear patterns being more drastic on the lathe bed. So glad I found your channel, keep up the good work 👍

    • @InheritanceMachining

    8:10 Could it be the camera angle? Possibly lens barrel distortion? Or maybe I'm just imagining things...
    But does clamping the T-Nut tight, cause the extrusion profile to distort a little?
    It seems like it somehow causes it to convex.

    Clamping slit for the third leg indicators? Tight! It would be cool to see you use a couple of leveling heads and lap both your granite table and the lathe bed to get them both to AA. I would suspect that tools in general follow T = N + N^N. I can make sense of 15:56. When you take the aluminum extrusion to the granite table, there is a temperature change that warps the aluminum extrusion when you get back to the lathe. JK.

    Funny thing, I did the same thing this past summer and completely agree on how rewarding it is to rebuild a free machine tool. I was given an admittedly more humble south bend 9a from 1944 (yep, war iron) and rebuilt it from the ground up myself aside from hiring a pro the scrape it in. Next project is trying to figure out how to mount glass scales on it.

    Do you trust the straightness of your aluminum extrusion? I would expect it to have a tolerance of greater than 0.010" per foot for straightness.
