    Hullo young man. You nailed it this time. Those things you named at 3:20, we call them cotton buds. I had ear problems a few years ago and there was the answer some dry lubricant and some cotton buds and that would have cleared all that gunk out of those ear drums. Thank you Dr Moses (ear specialist). Take care BIG GUY.

Your video reminded me that I need to get some of that dry lubricant. Since I finally fixed the problem on my drill press I need to do your tune up procedure on it.

    I restore/refurbish vintage drill presses and coincidentally have a Craftsman like yours (1955) for sale ATM. Seeing a hair over 0.0025 runout from the original Jacobs 633C chuck. It's a simple design that held up well. Only had to replace one of the four bearings. Not a big deal. The machine runs like the proverbial tank.

      I beginning to believe that no one on UA-cam knows, or cares to share the run out. I saw one video where the guy cleans the spindle, and the chuck, puts it back together, turn it on and (drum roll please) it wobbles to beat hell!, But he's standing claiming it's perfect! My intuition says a) cleaning may correct it b) the chuck needs to be replaced, so might as well upgrade c) the chuck isn't seated on the spindle well d) the spindle bearings are bad. I assume there are bearings in there somewhere 🤔 e) something else

  • @nealwalden3543
    @nealwalden3543 5 років тому +1

    An easy/accurate way to confirm quill is perpendicular to table: Using a bit of wire (similar to a coat hanger) slip in a portion into the chuck and tighten. Then bend the wire down and out, so as to reach the table top, way out by the edges. Manually rotate the chuck. If the wire touches the extreme corners of the table in the same way (feeler gauge is useful here), then you have a broad reference to establish 90 degrees. This is better than an small square/small reference area. Make sense?

    What do you do if your chuck and/or quill are out of alignment. My family pitched in years ago and bought me a standing drill press (from a discount tool store so no manuals) and I love it, but the bit has always wobbled. It can draw a neat little 5mm diameter circle on my work unless I sink the tip of the bit before turning the press on.
    I tried replacing the quill and the chuck at different points in time, but nothing has fixed the wobbling bit.
    I hadn't thought about it before, but maybe it's that my belt or motor is too loose and the vibration is causing the wobble? I just don't know.

    First of all yeah yeah yeah amazing video... you always do amazing videos... but that ending joke, now that's brilliant!
    2 Questions: 1) noticed you did not clean the pulley wheels - is that not necessary? 2) how do you know what way your quill uses to remove? Mine is an old Powematic, 1140F and not finding much online plus don't known if prior owner changed it. Haven't been successful removing it and don't want to do something stupid to break it.

    • @gnarthdarkanen7464
      @gnarthdarkanen7464 5 років тому +1

      A pretty fair bet is that it "probably" bumps off with a mallet... BUT there are a few things to do for "figuring it out"...
      First, hunt down a good "penetrating lubricant" or "rust breaker" lubricant chemical... I can recommend "PB Blaster's Penetrating Catalyst"... It's in a white bottle with bright red and yellow labels and a small yellow cap ( small for a spray-can)... You'll want to use the "straw" to get the stuff between the chuck and the "movement shaft", which is the telescoping thing that actually moves up and down... inside it is where the "Power shaft" transfers power from the pulleys to the chuck... Just sprits a little (the stuff stays slick forever and gets everywhere)... and leave it a few minutes... and then sprits again... maybe two or three "passes".
      Give it between ten minutes and half an hour to "soak in" because this stuff takes a few minutes but REALLY penetrates... AND THEN you can take a plain rubber mallet and "drum" around the upper sides of the chuck... You're trying to introduce some wobble, not move mountains or "break" anything free all at once. SO strive for a firm strike each time, and then rotate to a new position... You should be able to see movement in a few passes, but be patient... Old parts that haven't moved in years can take a while to free up.
      What if it's not a "friction fitting"???
      Non-friction connections come in two types that I've ever seen.
      1. End-bolt... This may have a bolt straight up the center of the chuck, and they tend to be tight as hell... BUT you have to clean and Clean and CLEAN first to even see them usually... Go ahead and spray degreasing agent (I don't recommend acetone here, personally) while the chuck is wide open on the drill... WD-40 is reasonable, and won't deteriorate the table or your face should there be backspray... BUT I've generally been reasonably lucky with Simple Green or Purple Power (Advance Auto or Auto-Zone are good sources... along with the PB Blaster) and HOT water, a "throw away" tooth brush will also help if the chuck is large enough...
      Alternatively (and for smaller chucks) you can pop by any store with a craft section for pipe-cleaners (those wirey fuzzy things kids make silly crap out of at school) and those can be twisted together or manually formed to shapes for reaching in and swabbing out before going through the migraine-induction of cotton swabs.
      Once cleaned out, you should be able to tell what type of bolt is holding this thing in place with a decent flashlight... shine right up the chuck and look... with luck it's still got enough of the head to show phillips or allen or even hexagonal shape for a tool to reach and "grab"... THEN it's as simple as a pipe-wrench on the chuck itself or some means to "lock" the pulleys-end of the shaft in position to extract the bolt...
      BUT you may decide that cleaning the chuck out was good enough, and move on without too much fuss.
      2. SOME (in my dubious experience only a few) chucks were clamped onto the shaft with a "set-screw" which will usually be an allen-driven bolt directly in the side of the chuck. These are almost always painfully obvious, since the bolt shows on the side of the chuck or a base-coller... To reference the video, there's a collar on Kats-Moses' drill-press right above his chuck, but it's there to protect shaft, and to help with re-installing or upgrading the chuck in size... The black dot on the side of it is probably the same kind of allen-drive bolt I'm talking about, and looks similar enough that you can understand what I'm talking about.
      IF your Press DOES have an "end-bolt", you can now understand a new importance for NOT "bottoming out" drill bits in the thing when working... Of course, a dab of silicone can help protect the bolt, too... but regular maintenance and checking up on it is also important... It's easy for bits being shoved into wood and other materials to beat on those bolts, and that's probably why the friction-fit method became as popular as it is...
      In any case, if you don't see the obvious allen bolt sticking out the side of the chuck... I'd sprits away with the PB Blaster and start banging, myself... Being easy AND using a proper mallet rather than a hardened metal hammer is going to serve you well, and they do make these for WORK... so it's not exactly a china doll. Relax, breathe, and carry on.
      I believe you can get there from here. ;o)
