Heavy duty Homemade Lathe

- In this video i'm showing how i built my homemade metal cutting lathe mk2 from scratch! challenging myself by only making it with basic tools. It works really good and I will be using it alot in my future projects for sure! It probably won't be the most accurate machine ever, but surely good enough for me. Unfortunately i couldn't find a right size and hardened hollow headstock shaft at my local metal yards, and buying one new would have been way too expensive. Also i did pack the headstock bearings with grease, but just didn't show it on video. The autofeed works very good when doing normal work, but thread cutting is a bit to difficult for now, maybe an upgrade for later. As well as a digital readout.

![1940s Metal Lathe [Restoration]](/img/n.gif)
People spent centeries to develope a lathe from ancient tool. Decades to improve, years to build one. But there's a guy just made one from scratch with an angle grinder.
Someone would say its a wasting time but as a metalworking guy... Your a hero. Hat off to you sir!
I have a friend who is always saying to me why aren't you buying, why are you trying to invent the wheel again?
And I say - is there a more satisfying thing then to build you own machine and then use it to manufacture parts?
@@ophirb25 this is our future cuz its not reasonable to buy one, and it will be worse in this slavery new world order
@@miloszivkovic6922 china makes very cheap ones. They have the cheap transport too. This project is good and with few modifications , a little better tools for precise cutting and gear based feed ( synchronized with the chuck ) he could make the lathe with the ability to cut the threads.
Cà Lem was my inspiration and now this guy too
Cà Lem you are such a genius guy
Best wishes for u
Stay blessed ❣️
Awesome, I just hope he survives all that rust on his lungs so we can get more content.
Very impressive build! I felt the pain of cutting all that steel with a grinder and a hand drill in my soul.
A small tip: I’d suggest wearing a respirator when performing heaving grinding in a tiny room to avoid chronic lung issues…
I'm not one for being a "safety sally" to other men in their own shops, but in this particular instance I second your small tip only because I want to see many more years of this mans madness.
I was thinking the same thing. Love this content, but please consider using a respirator with all those cutoff discs and metal flying in the air.
Thanks man!! Yeah it definetly was a pain but you know what they say: aint no victory without a battle😉 i always try to have my shop doors open when doing alot of grinding but might just wear a respirator next time as its been commented so much😅 thanks again means alot man i love your content too🤙🏻🤙🏻
@@homemade_madness All that iron oxide dust plus no-telling-what-else being atomized and sucked into your, still, quite young longs makes for, potentially, much unhappiness in your advanced years. Take that from a guy who has worked around machinery his entire life and lost a brother and and uncle to lung diseases.
You have done more grinding in this one project than I've done total, Ave you get to decide how you do it. But yeah, a respirator would probably be wise.
This is the most impressive thing I've seen on UA-cam. Period.
Thanks😁
You watched a Period on UA-cam!
@@BuffaloBillsSon and it was bloody brilliant!
It is kinda cool to watch the next Clickspring take his first steps.
100%
As a machinist that mostly does Lathe work, this is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen.
As a turner of 38 years experience, that is seriously impressive workmanship. Well done sir!
👍👍
To be honest I am speechless ...
Considering the tools you started off with, I and many others are blown away.
Taking into account what you built here, a drill press will be easy for you.
Congratulations...
That’s why he mention build drill press next..haha…
This is the most impressive DIY build I've seen on UA-cam. You made one of the most useful shop tools using only handtools and the unfinished lathe itself to complete it.
Indeed. At the beginning, I was like "Well, I guess, I have to see another home made lathe to kill my time with", but after I was Genuinely stunned. This fellow beats Everything I've seen so far.
To make a lathe, you must first build a lathe
@TheChangenick A LATHE WAS THE FIRST MACHINE THAT STARTED THE INDUSTRIAL REVELUTION BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY MACHINE THAT CAN REPRODUCE IT SELF :)
@@outstanding1448 s
Couldn't agree more this is extremely impressive
I've been a machinist for 40 years, I've done some amazing things in my life and this project has me impressed all to heck. What an amazing job young man, you are an outstanding craftsman.
Machinist will be impressed but mechanics are not.He was doing great but no bargain.
@@lanchanoinguyen2914 ok try making one with a grinder and a drill. that mechanic title of yours will surely make all that hard work easier right?🤓
Watch the lathe in doing its thing in my new project! ua-cam.com/video/0qnLQNjDyPA/v-deo.html . Who’s up for a 3 axis vertical mill build next?🤪
Yupp
ohhh yeeesss please!!
I'm up for that.
Please
I'm up for ANYTHING you tackle! :o)
How does this only have 5K views, and less that 10% of those people have liked? This guy is incredibly skilled, especially for his age. This build is absolutely amazing.
I think the problem is true craftsmanship and skills like these are falling to the way side and most people on social media don’t even have a clue what he’s doing and what a lathe is. But you are correct he is incredibly skilled. Sad that this is not more appreciated.
This guy is obviously very talented and very persistent to build this. My only concern is for his safety with this large being very top heavy (as lathes typically are), but his bad needs way wider feet and should be bolted to the floor. Tipping it over would be very dangerous for him. But your right with your comment.... good on him
@@mattgrant6745 you sound like my mum, she said the same dribble literally.
Only takes 10 minutes on yt to see home taught craftsmen is a booming sector.
View count comes down to algorithms and watch time. A 37min no talking video appeals to 1 audience.
This is not entertaining or educational unless you already know how to operate all the tools he's using
Nearly 60k give it time my friend
@@rickyseddon4786 Haha, yeah that escalated quickly... 🤣🤣
This is the most Insane homebuilt I've ever seen...
This is the whole new level of "I MAKE A NEW ONE"
He will really need to step up his game... fuck making new bolts on a lathe... how about make a new lathe to make a new bolt hahaha
My old lathe is unreliable
*I MAKE A NEW ONE*
@@origamigamer8990 My Mechanics needs to see this.
@@guillaumefraser3813 Thanks for getting the reference.
Building a machine in a way that allows you to use the machine to build other parts of the same machine is just next level genius
Building this lathe was not the most inspirational Part for me. His sheer patience and determination with a cordless drill and the amount of time spent on that grinder has surpassed anything else I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. What a magnificent feat you accomplished my friend everything from here on out is gonna be a walk in the park. Good job!!
I WAS TIRED OF DRILLING AND TAPPING THOSE HOLES JUST WATCHING HIM!!
I would have broken so many drill bits.
Ive worked in machine shops and a maintenance workshop for 50 odd years and your effort was amazing; very impressive.
As a machinist and a fabricator, this was truly impressive!.. I would have never taken on such a task without using a mill, lathe, and store bought ways, carriage etc.. for you to do this with nothing but raw steel and some very basic power and hand tools is beyond impressive. I feel like this is how it must have started.. someone built something like this by hand, then used it to create more accurate parts to build a better second version and so on until we had the precision of the machines we have now. Hat is off to you sir! well done! And you should definatly go for the 3 axis mill build next!
Hours and hours and hours of hand planing in order to build a mill that could do it.
Это же сколько терпения надо, чтобы на коленке сделать токарник! Парень, я восхищен тобой!!! Такой молодой и уже такой целеустремленный и супер упертый!
по дереву пойдет а по металлу увы, жесткости нет, бесполезная трата времени, но как опыт танца на граблях сгодится
@@Разъем-б2и Для неспешного точения пойдет. Думаю жесткости в нем не меньше, чем в школьнике.
@@Разъем-б2и теоретик с cnc клуба?
Former toolmaker/machinist turned machining engineer here. Very impressive! Add a cheap mag base dial indicator to the cross slide and you'll know how much material you're taking off.
Exactly what I was looking in the comments to find, need to use a dial indicator to make shure everything is square and uniform, a basic setup.square will only do so much for this kind of work
@@shaneward6689 yeah, I wondered that too. Square the chuck and look for runout.
The best video ever. No talking, just showing work done and proof of end results. I hope UA-cam pays you well.
And no fucking music or moronic sound effects! Epic :-)
Man, this is amazingly impressive. I worked as a journeyman machinist for about 11 years and I've watched quite a few videos on here about people building lathes from scratch and I have to say, without a doubt, yours is leagues beyond them all.
Absolutely stunning and you seem to be pretty young to top it off. Literally, amazed!
It's nice to see a video where someone builds a lathe without using a DIFFERENT LARGER LATHE. Thank you.
I spent most of my time watching this video with my hand over my mouth, trying to keep my jaw from falling off. Man, when I was your age, I was still playing with car audio systems and chasing girls. HOLY CRAP THIS BUILD IS BLOODY AMAZING!!! I want to be you when I grow up, but you're younger than I am, so now what do I do?! YOU ROCK!
There is a lot of time during this video that the cameras are turned off, so who says that he’s not also out chasing girls (or guys. I try not to be judge-y)
Of course, if he keeps not wearing a respirator when he’s grinding, it’s going to make it a lot harder later in life to catch those girls (or, you know, guys)!
Seriously, though, he did an amazing job, and it was a good video of his efforts. While a lot of what he did might be lacking a certain degree of precision, he can use the lathe he built to make other tools and parts for his lathe that have a higher degree of precision.
No excuses. You should still try to be him if you think he is good enough.
The sad part is having the loud sounds in your car gets them to look but it dosen't make them like you
I just realized I've been watching with my hand over my mouth too lol
This guy is very smart and extremely determined. Must have also spent a huge amount of time sourcing all that metal, and then to film & edit the video. I really like the cutting and surfacing jigs for the grinder. When I saw that temporary headstock, I thought "This is The Lathe that Built Itself"!
Haha true! Thanks
I kept think to myself ok how you get make that part then coming up with ways to do it. I too especially liked how the part built lathe was used to build some of the other parts. Next stop a large boring tool to bore out the headstock shaft .
@@jameshodgson1609 Man, boring out that hardened shaft might just be the thing that is beyond that poor treadmill.
When using a lathe in school I used too always think how would you make a lathe without a lathe 😂 answer is use it half way through the job 😂 It’s like the chicken and the egg thing 😂 love it great work !
It's just fascinating how lathes can be used to make themselves. Not very many tools have that superpower.
thats so true bro he did well.... i feel like making one now
I am a Journeyman Tool Maker and seeing your skill and dedication to this project blows me away! You needed a tool and made one Hell of a tool! That will give you many good years of service.
As an engineer myself.. speechless absolutely fantastic! what was made along the level of detail and dedication, honesty you should be so proud of that !
Fair play, $800 wouldn't get you close to a Lathe of this size and weight unless you got an absolute steal of a second hand unit. It's obviously never going to be as accurate and repeatable as a factory built item and there's no threading capability but for the jobs it's likely to produce, I doubt if you need that.
I particularly liked the fact that you had to use it to make parts for it....... Latheception?
You obviously have the skills to step up your game. Now build a milling machine and use the two of them to produce an even better Lathe and upgraded Mill? Lol.
One can thread using taps and dies and the stability of the machine.
@@scottsolar5884 This is true, however only up to a certain size, which, in my experience is usually juuuuuust smaller than the actual size the job required. Lol.
he dosn't need a mill, he's got an angle grinder and some wood jig's?!
For sure he can do threading and inprove the accuracy. There is many ways to do threading, not just those methods form a school book, Inam sure you guys know it. Now, I would start with a basic table levelled somewhere in the shop with good milling machine. All would be much more accurate and easy, but still kudos to man, amazing work.
@@camberlubos3995 Agreed, the only problem with Lathe threading though is you need a fairly complicated and adjustable gearbox to drive both the main faceplate and the carriage spindle in order to cut different thread pitches...... I can see why he wouldn't have attempted that on a home made machine.
What is so amazing about this build is YOU DIDN"T LIE! All of the tools were basic. Some of the parts were purchased or sourced from other machines, but that's fine. You saved tens of thousands of dollars. Truly amazing.
If you’ve never used an air filter these are great. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx_dppjvjF8BYEmPSDTcgCUdRsgWYLXNHN I ended up with three after starting out with one. The noise level depends on the 1-3 settings with how hard you want the machine to work. You can also upgrade the filters and get one better for pet hair and smells which is a must have in my home. I noticed the air seemed lighter and easier to breathe when running the machine for the first time. Works great every time. Highly recommended!
The way you rig up your grinder to make the flat edges is as impressive as the build itself
This guy is still so young and doing impressive stuff. He's gonna go places.
That's what I was thinking. Kid essentially made a milling machine.
You have shown everyone on UA-cam what a Home build should be all about. To be able to improvise with the most basic tools for such a build is a talent that very few people have. Mate, if you keep this enthusiasm up the sky is the limit. I thought I was clever because of the things I build but my work shop is like NASA compared to the tools you work with. The future looks bright for you.
All my skepticism melted away as I made my way through this video. It didn't turn out to be a giant waste. The result speaks for itself. I'm very impressed. Thanks very much for sharing this.
I was wondering to myself how someone would make a lathe from scratch, I searched for it not really expecting anything good, this truly exceeded my expectations by far. Stunning work, I was shocked by the level of craftsmanship and use of tools.
I’m in complete awe! For those of us that’s actually used a 4 1/2 and 6” angle grinder can understand the dedication it took to make this lathe. You are a true artist
No only the lathe made me speechless, these angle grinder jigs you used are just as impressive as the new built lathe!
Thanks for sharing!!
but you keep spinning round in your lathe-ering on of kudos ... and just keep tooling around the issue of how impressive it is LOL .... couldnt resist you started it LOL
The most impressive thing is the accuracy of the entire build using only those tools.
I applaud your dedication and craftsmanship, truly a work of art.
Congratulations on the talented project and perseverance.
He deserves a doctorate thesis in metal mechanics.
One of the best videos showing the fact: if there's a will there's a way! Please wear a respirator when cutting so much with angle grinder. That stone ash is carcinogenic. Awesome work!
Went into the video thinking "alright this is going to be an inaccurate pile of shit right?" then sat here for 30mins straight not believing what I was seeing and finally ended with "this was the most impressive build I've ever seen." Honestly dude I'm speechless right now, the cleverness and hard work that you put in to make this thing is undeniable. You have earned my subscription I physically cannot leave without subscribing now.
The thing about 33 min videos playing at 1.75 speed without volume is they really make the sheer epicness of what you have built an understatement. This is genuine DIY gold. Not a drill press in site! The fact that you cut that square bar in half so neatly is testament to skill mate. Nailed it. I mean having gibs would be handy later on but I reckon by that stage you would probably have built a better and more accurate one.
Best backyard machinist on UA-cam. very skilled. can only imagine what this guy can do in a real machine shop if he can do all that with basic tooling. Mind is blown. Good job.
Making a temp head stock to cut the hole! Pure genius!! The whole build is genius! Hats off to you sir.
Thanks!🤟🏼
I saw something similar on another channel a while back. There's something very satisfying / bizarre / funny about a half built lathe being used to make parts for itself 😀
Your ability to problem-solve for not having expensive tools never ceases to amaze! Dare I say you technically even have "Surface Ground" ways on your lathe!
Impressive.
It requires a lot of skill to make a sutch good lathe. And just with tose limitet tools, seams nearly impossible. This is one of the best videos on UA-cam. Keeper ging.
Greetings from Germany
I've been a sheet metal worker and fabricator for over 25 years and I'm impressed. Normally I criticize these DIY machines in my head the whole way through but I am honestly impressed with this. You may want to build yourself a mill next if you haven't already, then everything else will be way easier.
You can be really pride of yourself! Congrats 👌👏 can’t wait for the video of the drill now 👀
Thanks!! Soon😁
@@homemade_madness nice job ... would this be scalable down to say a desktop version for modeling work ... say a max size of 2 or 4 inch stock 25mm or less
.
did you know when you used the lathe to make the lathe you actually machined out any alignment errors by using the circular mean of the error to compensate for it ... essentially the turning took into account the error and machined with that essentially at 0 ..... at the end of this build to the basic lathe finished how much cheaper than a store bought one of roughly the same abilities ...
Its absolutely insane that it works as well as it does. If you just made a Steel part with it, handed it to me and told me it was cut on a homemade lathe, built using only angle grinders, I wouldn't believe you one bit. Hats off!
Cant wait for the milling machine :p
I’d be very impressed if he could pull off a decent mill, as I can’t see how you could build the table with just an angle grinder. Additionally, he wouldn’t have much use for a mill as he doesn’t need lots of high precision parts in his projects. He’s already showed what a good surfacing job he can do with just an angle grinder and a jig.If he did do it, I’ve got no doubt he would pull it off
i fully expected to watch this and find that he bought the rails and crosslide.. etc. This has to be one of the best builds i have ever seen. The way he preloaded the spindle bearings was brilliant.
I don't even have words to describe you sir! But I'll start with patient diligent hard-working and impressive!
Wow you are a crazy person. In a good way. Hats off!
Thanks! You too😉
What an accomplishment! Gives me new faith in the next generation. I was going to ask how many sanding disks you used but then I saw the infinity symbol! I figured it was a lot. I tip my hat to you sir, a true fabricator and machinist. All I can say is wow...probably the most impressive UA-cam video I've ever seen.
Thanks man!!🤟🏼🤟🏼
Just before I watched this video, I literally watched a video from Fireball Tool, showing the way you use a cutting wheel can make a difference in how long it lasts. Still, I'll bet all that surface polishing took up a ton of discs.
You kick ass. Don't ever stop. I agree with this guy!
I loved the car build you did but this is completely madness, this is final year engineering with 100% PASS👍
Nunca me he sentido más satisfecho de dar un like. Eres un joven impresionante; el mundo necesita más hombres como Tú.
This possibly one of the most inspiring videos ive ever seen!
As an aerospace engineer let me say: just impressed!! Well done dude.
You've made a useful machine tool using relatively primitive but available hand power tools along with some intelligent design choices, ingenious fixturing then using the partially completed tool to fabricate additional parts of the tool effectively redefining what it means to build a machine shop from scratch. The precision appears to be reasonable for your purposes though the tailstock drill chuck appeared to be a bit on the wobbly side. Refining what you've done is using the machine to make itself and in the future make itself better. Congrats on using common materials to do this. You're an inspiration.
I’ve watched many lathe restorations but this is the first lathe build.
Congratulations
If I'm honest I must say that it works much better than I have expected - congratulations to this awesome build! There are few construction mistakes but for that usage they shouldn't become a big problem.
One thing: It hurts me to see all the dry slides and bearings... It would be very good if you oil the slideways to reduce wear and improve the motion (GLP68). Much more important than oiling the slideways ist the lubrication of the headstock/ spindle bearings. Industriell machines have a closed gearbox with oil which lubricates the bearings too. In your case I would disasamble the spindle, clean the bearings perfectly with brake cleaner and compressed air, cover every bearing housing from both sides (left a little space between spindle and cover) and grease it regularly through a grease nipple.
Thank you for your entertainment!
Greetings from Germany!
If he takes your advice that thing should last forever
I do understand your advice is given with true sincerity but possibly something he considered as "overkill" given the type of build? He strikes me as a very knowledgeable and tenacious individual and I look forward to whatever he does next as I certainly could not aspire to such levels of skill.
@@alangraham4526 Oi the vanzebo is a masterpiece ! :)
@@alangraham4526 absolutely not. Those bearings won't last long without lubrication, and any dirt in them will cause them to fail rather quickly.
Oiling is easy. You can just oil it every day manually. Lots of machines are that way.
But for the dirt... You need some seals.
For the ways, some way oil is nice and easy and cheap insurance.
I don't even know where to begin, this is literally the definition of "where there is a will there is a way", your truing jigs were simple, precise, effective and absolutely brilliant, to think you did this without a basic drill-press and chain drilling the slots by hand in that heavy of plate steel is where the Madness part of your channel name comes from, using parts from the treadmill was creative and saved you a lot of money, outstanding work.
Thanks!
This should be an ad for Makita Tools.
It should.. but it isnt (yet?🤷🏼♂️)

I never leave a blue box behind at an estate sale if I can help it. As a result, I have mostly Makita gear now. Been very happy with them for a number of years now.
Dude, this is amazing. This is by far the most impressive diy build I've ever seen. This Old Tony and AvE would be proud!
This is absolutely amazing. I can barely get my head around the idea of how to USE a machinist's lathe, and this dude is freakin' BUILDING one - with tools and materials from Harbor Freight! SMH serious kudos to you, my friend. Hats off big time.
Wow, hands down one of the best homemade lathes I have seen made on UA-cam... I'm speechless. You have a very bright future!
Let me add and a very bright present :D
A brilliant example of skill and self-sufficiency. Anyone who has spent time machining will smile and appreciate this - kudos!!
Watching this guy do it, it's almost easy to think "Yeah, I have an angle grinder and a drill, I could build myself a nice lathe". I can't even get my head around on the amount of skill and patience it took to get this done. Just thinking about all those little things that could have gone wrong, a tolerance that's just a little too much or too little, a screw that binds a little, something not quite aligned, etc. makes me look at this working in complete awe.
Thank you for sharing and congratulations on this build. I was skeptical of reincarnation up until now.... there is no other way to explain 40 years of fabrication and engineering experience in a (guessing here) under 25 year old mind and body! Outstanding tenacity, work ethic and skill set. Subscribed!
I watched 10th of videos of diy lathe, this one is the best for me! Simple but detailed process explanation. I just can't imagine cutting these strong steel plates with your grinders! Bravo! Time needed was long but result seems perfect for a long time!
We watched and surprised as a whole family. What a craftmanship! Respect 🙏
"An angle grinder is not a precision tool"
This guy: Hold my beer
😂😂
It's just perfect... the design, the materials, the sizes... perfect. 200 hours of build time is quite long but it's all worth it. Congratulations!.We'll done
Wouw man heel veel respect dat je zo veel uithoudingsvermogen heb om zoiets in elkaar te zetten met een puur staaltje vakmanschap 👍🏼
Hi Sr.This must be one of the most extraordinary works done by an DIY handyman,From the design up to the finished lathe it is a beautiful achievement.I admire specially the way in witch you planed the steel pieces using only handtools,Amazing.Congratulations.And the machine looks so solid and stable too.
This guy’s ability to make a jig for just about anything is incredible
This has to be the most impressive build I've watched, especially with limited tools. You should be very proud of yourself.
Bucket loads of determination, improvisation, innovation and skill. You're officially a fully paid up member of the apocalypse survival team alongside Primitive technology, Cody and other key personnel. Great viewing and extremely impressive.
Impressive does not even begin to describe how I feel. This is a revelation. Lathes are scarce and far between in my country. This problem has chained up both fabrication and engineering and everyone is just whining about it . Your video proves that they don't have to be, we can indeed make them with the tools we already have in our workshops! l am blown away. The force is strong with you sir. You have a loyal fan in Nigeria. Keep up the good work.
I think you may catch some heat for a lack of accuracy in the final product but building a metal lathe from scratch is super impressive. I admire you sir! Awesome !
This guy literally used an angle grinder, a drill, and half a lathe to make this, I doubt he will catch any heat for lack of accuracy.
this is the most impressive build i've ever seen on the internet. you are highly skilled and smart! you should attach this video as your resume for any job you apply for! absolutely amazing
You’re a genius! This method got me my latest fabrication job
Most fantastic build of its type I've seen, I'd love to own a lathe, even a baby one and here's a young man who just builds his own, blown away by this mate, amazing skills 👌👌
Absolutely bro. F-ing Brilliant!
Get to grinding my dude!
This reminds me of my first metal lathe experience: broken POS in shop class. I ask the teacher “if I fix it, can I use it?” He says knock yourself out kid. I had no idea what I was doing and nothing precise was ever made on that lathe but I learned a ton.
Meu amigo, eu sou brasileiro, sou torneiro mecânico, sou apaixonado pela nossa área de atuação, sou caprichoso naquilo que faço, dedicado......em fim......sinto que nasci pra isso........porém, como disse alguém aí nos comentários, eu jamais assumiria tal tarefa, tal responsabilidade em realizar um trabalho dessa magnitude, com as ferramentas básicas que você usou camarada. Agora vai os elogios pra você. Você e muito novo, tem um talento monstro, extremamente capaz de fazer qualquer coisa, com suas mão, sua criatividade, e seu talento que é nato, está dentro de você, nasceu com você e isso nunca, ninguém vai te tirar isso, você está acima da media muitas vezes além do padrão comum! Eu realmente estou assombrado, com o que você conseguiu realizar, com a estrutura precária de trabalho que você teve. Minhas últimas palavras pra você meu irmão, e muito bem, parabéns, você é o cara. Show, Show, Show!!!!!
A propósito, de onde você é garoto?
Totalmente de acuerdo. Tiene un talento muy grande, por encima de la media.
Ele mora nos países baixos.
I rarely comment on videos but this deserves all the congratulations anyone can offer. So incredibly well done.
Очень смелое решение сделать полнофункциональный токарный станок. Уникальные технические решения были применены. Поздравляю! Но есть небольшое несовпадение осей шпинделя и задней бабки. Это видно во время сверления. Уверен, что вы справитесь с этой проблемой Больших успехов! Вы-талантливый человек.
Впервые вижу подобное. У меня нет слов! Я восхищён и удивлён одновременно. Такой молодой парень, и такой смышлёный! Супер станок получился! Жёсткости узлов достаточно.
Superiore alle piu'impensabili aspettative! ! NON potrà mai trovarsi senza un lavoro !
En ik maar denken dat Lathe iets met koffie ten maken heeft, ik zit hier echt met de bek open, complimenten👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'm with everyone else on congratulating you on a spectacular lathe build. That's truly an entry level tool set build. Well done. Please take this next bit with the knowledge that I fully support what you're achieving; it's brilliant. Please use your spray painting respirator when you are grinding as the abrasive dusts will destroy your lungs in the years to come. My wife did an extensive ceramics course, and they were strict on the dangers of inhaling silicas and abrasives, and the long painful deaths they produce (my uncle suffered that). The scar tissue builds up in the lungs from earlier exposure. Also, always wear goggles when drilling :) I nearly lost an eye when a drill bit caught and snapped.Resolved to never drill without goggles again. We want you to be doing this for years to come :)
Again, Brilliant work; truly Stunning, and Congratulations. Cheers from Australia
every shot I could tell, he was wearing safety glasses so yeah. All this ^
I definitely agree. You must wear a respirator when grinding, the metal from the part that you are cutting will eat your lungs up, and toxic fumes from painting and welding will too. Always protect yourself.
And so we meet here as well! :) Seconding every thought you wrote.
@@Nemozoli :)
I thought I was looking at my tween.
I also love to build my own machines.
Great work tween.
Maybe consider to change the whole shaft with a hollow profile so you have a kind of spindle bore.
Yup ! You pretty much blew everybody away with this stunt ! You are a master ! You deserve a congratulations fit for BOSS !
This is insanely good work sir I can only salute you! I couldn't be more impressed by how you used some simple tools and a bunch of steel into a genuinely more-than-capable lathe 🤯
Thanks so much for taking the time to record and share this too 👍
Congratulations! that will be a perfect tool for upcoming projects
Excellent Craftmanship Good work
Great talent and ingenuity mate. Would be great if you followed up with a dial gauge now to show the level of accuracy you can achieve. If you do or don't it's a fine piece of work.
Now, put a dial indicator on tool bed, run in by hand to touch the dial gauge spindle. Zero it out- turn handle in and out with a round piece of ss behind handle for indicator with pointer needle, mark out lines in thousands, you got vernieer scale markings for feeding indications! You are very talented indiviual! Welder is spot on, your welds are 20 year veteran worthy! One can always tell when someone loves what he does, thats U!!!
Definately the very best build on UA-cam. Well done man!! I'll be watching this again and again! Absolutely bloody inspiring!
This is also the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life! Gosh, just astounding to know that you can build a machine from scratch that will help you build absolutely anything you could ever need to build.
One of the most awesome builds I've ever seen so far. This is just great.
I have never seen anything like this done by one man with a few tools. You are very skilled, hardworking and talented. Congratulations!❤❤❤
Damn I bet that thing weighs 900 pounds or more. Very very well done my friend it came out absolutely amazing. I love it!
Haha I made this comment before the end so I just guessed the weight haha I also asked for a price break down of which you gave at the end so I deleted it but that means you were on top of the questions and answers before we even asked great job.
I am deeply impressed by your dedication, especially with the grinding. This an excellent build, kudos 👏 and keep up with the great work.
I have seen many lathe builds here on youtube, and I found them pretty interesting, but this one is very impressive!
Impressive build. I've seen many home builds on UA-cam, but this lathe is truly fantastic! Really GREAT job!
After seeing what this fella can do with just a few tools can't wait to see what he's going to do now that he has this to work with too! Awesome build !!
