Making a Radius Tool For Lathe From Scrap Metal Simple Easy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 січ 2023
- On This Episode of Make It Kustom, I am building some Mother Tucker hammers for an upcoming class. While doing so i came up with the need for a simple way to make repeatable radii on the nylon hammer heads. I hope that this simple tool can inspire you to make tools as you need them to solve problems on your projects.

This tool is one of the reasons the lathe is the mother of all machine tools, very well done!
I love your videos please keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Now I've gotta build this for my lathe. This is cool. Thankyou for another awesome video
Good work. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎
Love it Karl. You have an amazing work ethic & also you are a happy man which makes viewing a whole lot nicer. All the best Mate. Billy J..... Queensland, Australia.
Thanks so much Billy you are always a great supporter hope you are doing well!
Very cool on the radius tool.
Now to learn how to mill a ball sphere on the mill with using a boring head and spin fixture.
More old school learning.
ALWAYS EXCELLENT, KEEP IT GOING...
Great design for the circle cutter. You do fantastic work, your instructions are clear, and you make it look easy.
The circle cutter sure makes it easy to cut ends for levers, and as you have shown, for making the heads for the shaping hammers.
I just about had a heart attack, when I saw where your dial indicator was resting well inside the arc of the jaws of the lathe chuck. I wasn't able to breathe until you swung it back out of the way.
What a nice and simple sollution. 👌🏻 sure thare are better looking versions out thare, but this just does the job without fuss. Love it.
Really nicely made tool that should last you out. Nice.
Thanks for sharing, if you build tools they will work. The lathe was the first machine tool and all others were probably made on a lathe . A must if you work with metal.
Boy , do I vividly remember getting smacked in the back of the head by the metalshop teacher each time I took my hands of the chuck key and left it in there. ( although it was only for a brief moment , just measuring or whatever.).
I see you doing the same thing and the hairs on my arm stand up. 😁
You are a brilliant artisan
your work is festinating
Easy and dumb…… I’m in 😁. Thanks for posting this.
Went you said something simple and only take 20 minutes. I wasn’t committed but I saw your vision as you built it. Oh yah he’s on point now. Great project. Thanks for sharing.
Looks excellent, not bad just off the bat, sometimes I will start something, then you run out of time to finish, have to come back later, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
It's always a good time watching you work your magic.
Ive been (im)patiently waiting for this to drop for days!! And as expected, you never fail to entertain and fill that need. Love your content and am now waiting for the next one!
That was awesome to watch, great to see the thought process and what you came up with! Mother Tuckerrrrrrrr
Love your work a fan
My dad had 59 Road master, that was a beautiful riding car.
I bet it was! They are like driving a heavy cloud
Great video! Thanks for sharing! Yes I'm stealing it!
Hahaha excellent that’s all
I ask !
Simple and to the point! Great job! Thanks for sharing!
You always provide wonderful content. Thank you for the tips, tricks, and sharing time.
What a clever tool! Well done!
What a badass tool. Lathe work has always interested me. It’s about the only machine that can basically make itself. You’re truly an inspiration. Thanks for such awesome content.
It can also make all the other tools.
You have a lot of great ideals for tools and machine shop devices. I believe you could easily support yourself making tools and selling them.
Your videos always hit at the right time for me.
Thanks!
That was very impressive...your talents know no limits.
I have an attachment similar to what you made. This video shows me how to set it up and use it! Thanks for another great video!!!
I'm buying my first lathe for my workshop on Sunday. This is perfect ❤
More and more motivation to get projects done!!!!
Thanks for the video, really need this attachment for my old lathe. You helped make it clear in my mind to make mine.👍
Awesome. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep making. God Bless.
Simple ideas are the best ones!
Karl you are an innovator so you can make your life a little easier, and that is the name of the game “ innovation”!! Love your content as always ❤️❤️👍
Great tooling Karl, Many have learned something new today. Sure does look like it would make life a little more relaxing and the tooling process and little easier. Many thanks.
I love your channel just to see the tools you make for your tools.
I now have to make one. Inside and outside radii. Very cool and innovative as would be expected from you. Thanks
Hey Karl Super well thought out, I have a Boxford lathe, the top slide, mounted in the same way, have been thinking about a solution for a ball turner, so great that you come up with the solution. So many thanks, also for your other cool videos.👍
Love your work👍😀
stoaked to have found your chanel mate, your an inspiration to this community, good vibes and a pleasure to watch, cheers from New Zealand.
masterful work
I literally needed to make one of these and was hadn’t got round to sketching one out so you’ve saved me a job and it looks like it works awesome.
Keep up the great work 👌🏼
Nice! Looks like I've got a new project.
wow, your skill set is unbelievable ! Look forward to ever video 🙌
Really enjoy watching your tool making. Thanks for the great content.
Right on Tim glad you liked it!
I love your work
love it pal! killin it!
Frickin Cool!
Really cool little tool!!!!!!!
Wow,all I can say is WOW, what a great idea for a radius tool,I think it's great how your mind works and you freely show how you build the tool,keep on doing what you do 🏁
I really enjoy the tool-making videos. Nice work! 👍
Will the Mother Tucker hammer be for sale on your website?
Great idea Karl, I’ve been looking for an less complicated version to make for my lathe. Thanks!
My metal lathe is getting delivered this week and this is exactly the kind of tooling I've been trying to describe to my friend that rebuilds this kind of machinery. Thank you so much for posting this video Karl it will be a big help. I see you get plenty of use out of your Evolution metal saw that tool is a lifesaver. Keep up the good work brother.
It’s a life saver for sure!!! Thanks Tim glad this one came at a good time 👊
Man this is so simple yet effective.
Love ya work mate 👍😜
Gold hands, cool Chanel!
I have been wanting make ball/ radius turner for while now but haven't found the one I like, until now. This exactly what I've been looking for. Watching your vids is not only skill expanding but it is a hell of a lot of fun. Like so many others I look forward to your content and appreciate all your effort thank you and God bless.
Thanks so much Larry ! Stoked you like this design! Ended up working decent but does have some limitations. Good luck with yours!
I have been trying to figure out how to cut bottom anvils for an English wheel on my lathe for ages. The videos i have watched previously have left me scratching my head but this was so simple and clear. The light has come on in my head and i shall create with confidence. Thanks Karl! Another Aussie in awe of your abilities 🇦🇺 😊
Slick tool!! I know what my next project in the shop is going to be!
I made something similar years ago with the same principle. Works like a charm.
Good stuff as usual Karl!
Hey Karl great video as always such a brilliant tool well done them hammers look amazing too keep up the great work love the channel and what you do totally awesome 👍♥️
@@gpw203 He has two, he used the other one as well.
Love it dude.
Im halfway through building a shed at the moment, lathe under cover outside, mates possibly selling me his mill, super pumped to get back to making stuff!
Video is top quality as always, no faff, no waffle, just to it and a great mix of getting by and using the right tool for the job.
Really appreciate it.
There isn't a huge custom scene (to my taste) where i am so i hope to build a few bikes and change that if i can!
Nice one fella.
Love your style.
Perfect timing! I'm in the process of rebuilding a 10×54 Atlas
Your a mad man with your lathe Karl the part looks 💯 and the hammers look amazing.... 🙂👍🙏
another great video....can't wait to see all the new content you have coming out....keep up the great work!!!
Thanks Norman 👊 it’s going to be a good year!
Well done Karl! Gotta build me one of those for my Atlas, it’s cross slide is almost identical to yours. Your talents continue to impress me, thanks for sharing your ideas!
Slick tooling Karl! You can make some slick stuff with the quick. Dash buttons and pulls, shift knobs. Awesome!
I like the new tool, nice vid 🙂
I started making one in the beginning of my lathe ownership, and stalled. I used a ball bearing, but hit a wall. Cant remember what the issue was, but im thinking i will revisit it after watching this video. My lathe is only 9” swing, and had issue with height. You may have helped me solve it. Thanks Karl!
Nice job Karl
Very nice
The best way to spend a half hour is with you Karl.... great things yet to come I see. Your brothers car looks new!
Thanks Morgan! Really fun working with the boys on it 👊
I enjoy your machining videos... Makes me want to go out and fire up my Gunmaster 17-32 Combo mill/ lathe and make something. That little Chinese lathe has been a fun tool in my Fab Shop for decades. This radius tool could have a lot of possibilities for it.
Nice work sir..
Man that's pretty sweet. Great job. There's all kinds of over complicated ones on UA-cam. This one is super simple. Thank-you for the awesome content. Also that's a pretty sweet car.
Xdreamly efficient.... GeniUs!
GeenyUs
Nice going
I sure enjoy watching Karl show his skills.
Just over thinking this man 👍
Hi Karl from Shearstown Newfoundland, I’m a retired ford master tech who now builds and restores car and trucks , I was wondering when your going to get back at the Cadillac build , I’m currently working on a customers car that we may chop and I like what you were doing on that project,thanks and keep up the great videos
and I liked what you were doing with your build , thanks and keep up the great videos
Some people have talent keep using yours 😊
Oh I am making one of these! No more filing with inconsistent results!!
they are very useful! we have them too
Cool, random video drop!
Haha ya been a weird week !
Necessity the mother of invention 👍
Morning Karl, I've been around a machine shop settings since the early 1980's, I've seen a radius tool for the lathe, it worked on the same principal as your's, for such a small lathe, you do alot....great video!! Be safe!! God Bless!!
Thanks Michael! Use what ya got right haha always one way or another to get the job done
Where the wheels meet the road....right on man making your own stuff ..dig it my friend🎤💣👹
That’s my next tool for my lathe
Hey Carl,
A word of caution for when using the lathe.
"NEVER" grab the cuttings to remove them when the machine is cutting !
Those cuttings are super sharp !
A few years ago a friend grabbed some from his lathe while it was running.
The part being turned grabbed the cuttings as you did on camera, they shredded his finger and thumb pads.
He was lucky only skin and tiny bits of the meat below was removed.
Still, years later he has minimal feeling in those pads.
I think it is great that we can use a tool like a lathe to make tool to use on the lathe.
A Bridgeport or other brand mill is another tool that can do that as well as many of the tools we use in our shops.
Thank you for bringing us the great videos you make.
Work Safe, Be Well
Stay Warm
Oh man I'm so so so hyped to see the 59 get juiced 🎉🎉
That tiny car tripped me out!
All that work for making your own hammers!
Thats like roasting peanuts, cooking caramel, baking a cookie and melting chocolate just to prepare your own snickers 😊
Awesome commitment! Adorable work. Love it.
More machining my dude! This is sick!
More awesome content
Even tho I'm a car guy, I also have a good old Lablond lathe. I just wish I had a Bridgepport, and ironically, I'm from the same town they were built. I even remember where their factory was when I was a kid. I just need some room.
Mill out a tool holder that will accept the shank of an adjustable boring head. Similar to a boring bar tool holder. Use bearings or not to support the shank. Then you can also use the boring head adjustment to really dial in the radius especially internal radii. Leave it as a dedicated radius turning tool and just mount it up on the tool post whenever needed. Could be built with no welding.
