    Machinist extraordinaire. Truly a skilled art form but you make it look so simple. The reuse of materials gives one a "why didnt I think of that" moment.

    I really like that one. After viewing several of your videos on making tools for your equipment that makes your equipment more versatile, I have subscribed.
    I like that you take everyday items that other people have tossed and turned it into a useful tool for your equipment, now I don't feel so bad by holding all the stuff that I have I can reuse it now. LOL thanks

    I love the video artefacts you get when your check is spinning... it looks like you've got some kind of sci-fi force-field surrounding your chuck.
    First ever home-shop lathe to be powered by anti-matter.

    You come up with some really wonderful ideas. I never even thought about the old weight idea! I got 10 or 12 of those of different size laying around my garage. If not even in my basement. I'm always in need of a back plate for something is this is a wonderful idea thank you very much. In the drilling attachment that you made for your lathe is brilliant

    Thank you Steve! Another cheap and cheerful build that is really useful. Like the idea of the weights as a base...and using it on the DP is a great idea. Been working on RT angle one with some scrap 1/2" AL that is 4" square for use with my 3" mini chuck. I use it for all kinds of things, like holding round stock tight for deep hand tapping. My plan is to print a degree wheel and apply it to the AL and make a pointer so I can rotate to any degree and lock it down with a clamp of some type or maybe with a cam. Thanks for all you bring to us!! ~PJ

    I have used these weights for making cast iron gears.... the material is of a surprisingly decent quality.

    I am now scanning craigslist for cast iron weights, great idea. Just made a plate like this for my rotary table to adapt a 4 jaw chuck and used a old flywheel from a tread mill motor. My chuck was a 6" and the flywheel is about 6.5 so it works perfect. Did it similar to what you did here. For those doing machine work on a mill and not playing around with a drill press you will want to look for a rotary table. It works similar to this but better.

    • @SteveJordan
      @SteveJordan  6 років тому

      Hi Robert,....Sounds a good job. The weight bars are also great. I'm not sure what type of steel they are but they seem to machine nice and you get a lot of material from the long ones. Thanks for watching....Regards Steve

      Hello steve I checked the realization of the indexing of the back plate chuck (the 3 jaws on the Myford) and I found nothing.
      Did not you film?
      It's easy to do a second when the first is done, but how did you do it first?

  • @TrailBusterBrute1

    Honestly, one of the very best lathe project videos I’ve seen. EXCELLENT job! I’m across the pond, but you and I seem to think alike. I also repurpose metal objects for many projects. I have a 1937 South Bend 9” model C, a 1952 South Bend 9” model A, and a 9”x20” Asian lathe model CT-918A.
