Had to laugh when your new pup decided to try and help by pulling on a chain..... Going to be a true Shop Dog!🤣
Since her arrival, Maggie is “stealing the show” ….
I laughed at that too. I also noticed she didn't like the sander. Probably hurt her ears.
The canine equivalent of "I'm ready for my audition now Mr DeMille" I think.
“If we want to get this job done, it’s gotta be done. So you know what we’re gonna do? We’re gonna do it.”
The rueful delivery made me smile, but it’s a great mantra for those less pleasant tasks we have to undertake as adults in order to get to the things we do like. This is a magnificent machine, I know I’m late but it’s been cool watching it come together.
You're looking quite a bit thinner, and it sounds like your breathing has improved as well. Glad to see it, you're one of the good guys, and I want to see you finish all your projects. Keep it up!
The best part of the video was seeing your Pet assistant playing with that chain.
At about 15:25, your puppy that has been watching you decided to help dad with the chain. LOL. Coming together. Thanks for sharing.
Maggie was having a lot of fun with the hoist chain 😃
When I first set my tailstock on my HBm I used a rifle sight pointed back at the spindle with a level to get it close.
Well that's done it. My dog wants his own chain lift now.
When that sliding bushing plate came out and flipped, I gasped out loud!
Funny typo in the title slide... 'Pain Prep'. Some days in the shop are more painful than others though.
😀
You are looking fitter and trimmer, Keith. Well done! Enjoyed the ongoing project!
The beast keeps growing! And your new shop pup seems to be growing into the role, too.
I hope you're watching this video back as well Keith, you may have missed Maggie playing with the gantry chains at 15:24 😂
Thank you so much from Jonesborough TN! Your calm, methodical attack on mechanical problems is a pleasure to watch.
Oooooo
New shop doggie👍
Can even operate a chain fall.
Have a Jesus filled day everyone

Keith please get yourself one of the 3M rugged comfort quick latching face pieces with some P100 filters. They are so much more comfortable than the disposable masks and with how much I talk about them 3M should start sending me some kickbacks. It is so convenient to take on and off that I use it even when I might not have bothered to wear a dust mask in the past!
It is good that the old ways of engineering are not lost to the digital world. Thanks Keith. This ingenuous Machine, is much more efficient than spending too much time on a PC.
Enjoyed the pup
WOW! I never realised what a MONSTER of a machine this is!
Morning Keith from UK the gantry has paid for itself over and over the zip tie on the lifting eye is probably part of its tracking system the record when it was load tested
nice!! shop dog helping ya already!! cute!!
Thanks for sharing buddy seen your puppy in the video looks like a good little dog
omg, with all that work, all that grit going all over your new bed ways. You need a painters canvas to cover it when doing that stuff. And she is funny as all get up. I started watching her play with the chain. Pups are so much fun.
trick with body filler is to cut/slice off all thick areas before it sets, i use a Surform blade to remove the stuff you don't want easily . looks good!
I can’t wait to see this machine operate. It’s not at all clear to me how the setup will look. It is clear to me that the dog is a hit!
Love the way she's coming together and I see you have a new workshop foreman.
She? I think it looks like a He.... Joking!
That boring machine is coming along nicely. I'd really like to know what diet you are on, you are looking so much better, it looks as if you have lost 3 or 4 stone.
In the Uk we test lifting equipment every year, with a different colour tie wrap .
This mill turned out not being boring at all!
You know Orions Belt is just a Big Waist of Space
@@dhgodzilla1 WOW ! That's out of this world!
...snucker-snucker-snucker-snucker-snucker-!!!
Came to comment the same thing!! 🤣🤣
Thanks for sharing.
Zip ties on shackles and slings are used to indicate inspection dates. Most workshops have a sign that say "lifting tackle colour" and then changeable signs that say, RED, Green etc. Every three months all the kit has to be inspected here in the UK and the colour will change. Therefore any kit that missed inspection for any reason is obvious because the zip tie colour is wrong.
7:50 - Cinti Mill called it 'finish coating' from memory, but all the machines got at least a skim-coat and at times more than that. '60s.
14:24 - 36 teeth means 1/10 of a rotation gives you that result.
Keith,
There are laser alignment tools that are designed specifically for the alignment of machinery. We used them to align large motors (>250 HP) and fans or pumps. The software would calculate the shim's location and thickness. They were also used for boring stern tubes and rudder horns and bearings.
We didn't buy any equipment. Instead, we relied on contractors to do the work. I believe it was worth having their expertise.
Bob
If you've watched Keith much you'd realize he is very well versed in metrology and machine alignments. He already has some very sophisticated equipment.
A cheap laser pointer could come in handy to check alignment.
Keith you’re looking really good! Weight loss must be going well, great to see hope you’re feeling good too
Hiya Keith
I can only imagine how "exciting" that was for you when the part flipped out. Thanks.
That's why you use a safety strap! 😁
Keith, you are doing a great job on this. IMO you really need a grinding/sanding room with very good dust filtration. All that dust is good for neither you nor the machines. I'd volunteer for a work party but we live near different ponds.
Not your cup of tea? I thought I was the Limey!
I'm no pro on body filler either but when I fill plaster holes I go find a really flat piece of melamine/ furniature board and put the sand paper under bar a bit folded round two sides to hold onto. sands it wonderfully flat.
No, you don't have to body fill castings. They are castings, imperfections ok!
Did you notice that the capstan paint job did not have fill, at least in my eye, lots of
Great video Keith, keep'um coming..
Yet another excellent video.
Thank you for sharing.👍
That's how you do it.
WOW! 🤠
Sorry, I missed you putting the tail stock in place as I was watching the puppy 🙂
Big toys for big boys. Impressive machine. The only complain: It's by far too large for the remaining empty floor of the kitchen shop, on the third floor...
Close call at some 07.20... Not what usually happens in this shop.
Good morning Keith 😂⚙️📐👍
interesting series I used to run a lucas mill at FMC if I remember right it was a 42B
9:59 A shop is a difficult and exhausting place to work when you're a puppy. You have to grab a nap any place and any time you can.
THANKS KEITH
so cool
If you take a small cheese grader and lightly go over the filler to take off all the glaze, it will help keep your sand paper from clogging up. do it just as is setting up, after about 20 min's or so then sand away. 15:25 Your shop dog think's he's a cat.😁
I’m not sure that “Pain Prep” is entirely accidental 😂
I came here to say this. Wonderful typo. :D
Nice!! 🙂
Taking out the trash, raking leaves, digging post holes, applying body filler - everybody has jobs they don't really like.
The new shop dog is trying to earn their keep.
Imagine Keith doing a car bodywork/paint job 😂
Dam your looking well. What are you painting it with . Thanks for your time . Greetings from down under
15:30 I Helpin'! 🤣
pop the taper pin out of the far end of the shaft, to stop the spindle from moving?
I’m a little surprised to see you free grinding in the same room as your spanky new boring mill!
Paint too.
With parts this large it would be impractical to move them into another room for sanding and painting. No way to keep machine shop air laboratory pure. It’ll all settle out in a few days.
KEITH IT LOOKS GREAT, PET THE YOUNG DOG FOR ME AND SEE YOU WHEN...
Keith, is there any way of disengaging the timed height gears on the tailstock from the headstock or will you have to keep lifting the tailstock off its base, to turn the height control shaft independently?
Disconnect the feed rod at the headstock end by removing the drive pin. Can adjust the tailstock height until aligned. If it was adjusted before, the pin should be right on or very close to reattach the feed rod.
Where do you get your Turkite? I want to put it under the table of a little Reid surface grinder that I'm rebuilding so the table cranks easier.
Out of curiosity, have you ever tried lead work?
When you're all said and done what do you do sell these machines or use them
The belts on that machine seriously needs a cover. Ron W4BIN
I see the Diresta band saw in the background, is that project still going? Is it one of the things you need this machine to work on?
🐕❤
We could have used a few more minutes of dogger playing with the chain.
Eagle-eyed viewers will be able to spot a Lucas horizontal boring mill in the background of some of the dog footage.
😊😛😛😛😛❤❤❤🦾🦾🦴👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
LOL - "bore you guys with this"
Tailstock Pain prep? 🤪(I do proofread for a living)
That's more a _tallstock_ than a _tailstock_
Anyone who works on these old machines needs to know the paint you are sanding off is most likely lead based. Use a mask and clean up all the sanding dust. Be careful with pets getting into this dust!
I don't mind putting body filler on, I absolutely hate sanding it off. Another thing that disturbs me is watching someone spray paint without wearing PPE (mask and goggles or face mask).
HEADPHONE/SPEAKER ALERT 10:50!
What happened to the Stoker Engine?
your talk talk what your going to do is a waste of your viewers WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DO WOME WORK ???? . 🙄
