    a nice new toy in the shop. 😉 Every time I see installation of new equipment I wonder about the electricity in US. Here in Germany every house has 3 phase at 230 V with at least 35 A, nowadays mostly 63 A. We don't need converters or something like that. 😊 All the best for your shop!! Dieter

    • @simcoespring
      @simcoespring  Рік тому

      Most places in town have access to 550 3 phase. Or at least 220 3 phase.
      Here out in the country we only have 220 single phase.
      550 would be so helpful, however insanely expensive for a small shop like mine to afford running it from the next town about 1.4km away.
      Oh well. I'll make due with what we have here.

    You should have been more careful uncrating that machine. With the price of lumber these days, it might have been worth almost as much as your new mill/drill.

      I looked into bridge port milling machines and I could only find ones that are 550 3 phase or 220 3 phase. Can't seem to find one that is 220 single phase. unless I bought a phase converter, but i don't know how that works.

    Just curious, do you use HSS or cobalt bits to drill spring leaves?

    • @simcoespring
      @simcoespring  Рік тому

      HSS, however then we crank them down to 130 RPM and if we drill more than 1 hole we use coolant.

    The machine seems well built and should provide years of use. One question, if the table needs to be raised our lowered, won't you lose your X and Y locations?

    • @simcoespring

      yes it looks like that is true. up, down x and y are all linked together with one crank handle.

      @@jackdawg4579 Whether it worry's him or not, the machine has a pretty nice X-Y table capable of some decent precision as long as you don't need to change the table height. If all he's doing is poking a hole through a piece of steel he'll be fine.

    2 Questions maybe more if I think of something
    1. Why do you use Imperial measurements instead of Metric
    2. Are you going to bolt this machine to the floor

    • @simcoespring
      @simcoespring  Рік тому +2

      we use imperial measurements for about 80-85% of the stuff we use because of the USA where most of the parts are made and engineered. Heck I could do a whole video on why metric is only on the surface and not really real when it comes to automotive.
      I think my personal favorite is the
      1.062" diameter pin that has a 33.5mm thread pattern that goes into a bushing that is 1 3/8" in diameter and fits in a 4" wide leaf spring. that is 26.25 x 26.25" long but takes a 110mm x 24mm Ubolt on a 20,000lbs axle but the truck is rated to carry 24 tonne
      So ya, funny and confusing.
