I've been looking for years for a video of a project like this. Always a pleasure to watch, how you progress and how inventive you are with the challenges you face. I especially like the idea of the temporary mill.
amazing video series, but I'm seeing a lot of parts that I would rather try and sand cast then do some finish filing on, rather than cut/weld/bolt together. That's an amazing amount of work you've put into this whole project. Very inspirational.
Jak szło dobrze to szło dobrze, a czasem złośliwość rzeczy martwych brała górę, np: urwany pilot pogłębiacza (tego z wiertła do drewna) w otworze i wydłubywanie go pół dnia 😅

The steel/steel slip pair is very bad. Otherwise, it's a good job. the only thing missing is annealing after welding, but I was pleased with the scraping. I wish you creative success.

So, is there any reason you couldn't just grab the rest of the milling machine at the scrapyard? Why just the table? Wouldn't all fit in the hatchback?
A very significant reason - there was only table lying and nothing more ;) I have to make 2 sets of guides to finish mechanical part of my project, so even if there was whole machine I wouldn't take it.
Hi I based my project on "technical and operational documentation" maintenance manual. I just googled it. Link to example: www.truetex.com/bridgeport-manual.pdf Knowing some dimensions I just measured other from computer screen and scaled it. Not the best solution but worked for me. This project is not 1:1 copy. I simplified it to my needs.
Thank you! Will your next video be the last in the series on building a milling machine? I'm looking forward to the first chip! In your videos you use thick sheet steel as the surface plate, I understand this is steel annealed from a surface grinder? Have you measured the geometry of this sheet, how much it has moved over time, because steel behaves more strongly than cast iron?
I planned 2 more videos about mechanical part of this project, just to keep order and not mix content. Then series will go to electrical part - installing all electronics, DRO, VFD, power feed, coolant pomp etc - probably couple more episodes. I found some issues that needs to be fixed this will be also extra episode. During this project I used two steel plates as surface plate. First one was during scraping Z axis guides. It was a table from woodworking machine, never measured geometry of this plate. Second plate was this one used in saddle of the table - this one was surface grinded to flatness. I checked Z axis with this smaller too. There was absolutely no "rocking" anywhere so I assumed that this first plate was flat enough too. Professional surface plate of this size costs as much as this whole project and I'm a little bit limited by my budget ;) I'm aware of steel creep over time. Cast iron is usually seasoned couple years before machining. I did a lot of welding. Probably whole machine will need to be scraped again after couple years.
Thanks for the detailed answers. I’m looking forward to the next videos😊 I agree, a surface plate is very expensive if it’s new or used and repaired to new condition, but sometimes you can buy surface plates for restoration from private individuals or even at a scrap metal collection point, at least that’s the case here in Russia . The simplest option restoration - will turn to surface grinding machine, but I don’t know how stable the cast iron will be after grinding, because the surface experiences heat and stress in the metal during grinding. Nowadays, many people practice just this option of restoring surface plates, but, unfortunately, no one conducts tests for the stability of the geometry of the surface of a surface plates restored in this way. There is only one problem with self-restoration of surface plates by scraping - you need three surface plates of the same size at once to get one, or rather, in the end there will be three of them, but only one will be needed 😂
Yes, it’s good that all welded parts need to be annealed, but in your case I can’t imagine the size of the fire capable of this. Moreover, how much The behavior of the geometry of welded parts after annealing is also not clear. I heard somewhere that stress in the metal after welding can be removed using vibration with a vibrating motor

Very awesome build!!! Thank you for sharing with all of us. A very solid machine...
I love this build series. It's kinda sad, but I got excited when I saw you posted another video, lol.
nice to see a video from you every once in a while
Very impressive how you build this machine, you know exactly what you are doing, keep up the good work.
He knows what he's doing but I'm curious why he's doing it.

Which parts would you sand cast?
długo trzeba było czekać ale jest!

as always, amazing!...but why were you operating it without oil? 😱
For this type of "test run" nothing bad gonna happen. I think it's good to know how much resistant have movable parts
@@SteelCraft99 fair enough...but _any_ wear is bad wear, imo.
Excelente Brasil

Czy faktycznie tak głośno sprzęt pracuje bez obciążenia? Strasznie dużo wysokich dzwieków, aż w uszach świdruje.

@@SteelCraft99 It must have been meant to be then. A mill table is a strange thing to find by itself. But hey take what you can get.
