Very nice video. Thanks from sweden 🙏

Remarkable how British measurement system persists all these years after Harold Wilson!

Sunday afternoon provides a little peace &quiet to concentrate!

It is sad to see this,in your hart you will never get over it

Hi dave i am in uk want to meet you .

Why is the top of the steady rest fitted with a block instead of a bearing? What is its purpose?

Is it possible to trepan from both sides of a workpiece flipping it halfway? I think it is done at 4:29? If it is the actual trepanning tool shown after the operation, it looks super long, long enough to do it in one go I think?

Wondering about the welding of 4140 material, it's not a type of material that is suitable for welding really. Why is the end cap a separate piece in the first place, machine size limitations?

Why that wood used

I think you make more $ selling that chips

❤❤❤

Ooo mate i love it

Men who shape the world are VERY interested in what you do sir. The rest are puffs.

Your an inspiration for your craft and the machines you use, Not sure what all the makes of your machines are but Maybe CRAVEN, D.S.G, etc Plus Lang and Herbert are some of the machines i used in my career,

Love you stetty rest 😂😂😂

Can you obtain a 0.001 +/- ??

I see your still around, because you have liked newer comments. Are you no longer allowed to film at the workshop you work at Because of NDA’s or did you just get bored of KZbin?

Un poco duro el inconel...jejejeje

Love your videos. Have been watching and rewatching all of them over the last couple years. I still chuckle from time to time about how to tram a Bridgeport, and other wisdoms. Best wishes from west coast Canada.

How sweet it must have felt as that baby bored out your part?

Is there a followup video to this.....I would really like to know how it is working.

Excellent job !!!

Those are some of the largest billets I've seen, must be interesting to work at that size. We also use CNMG tools on our lathes, don't have any problems with them, but our work is much smaller and one of the lathes is a CNC. Great videos, interesting watching. From down in Devon.

Not the most difficult IMO. Try some Monel K500.

are you still alive?

I thought I'm just the only guy knows David Wilks he's an artist when it comes in trapping.

I really wish David would upload again, I hope he is in good health. Maybe a space rocket company finally got ahold of him and stuffed him in a back room with a Craven lathe and nothing but Nimonic alloy then covered the door with a massive nda and gave him unlimited John Smiths beer and thats why we dont get videos anymore. just a theory

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hope you are well and to see you return! Best of luck David

Greetings from the U.S, this is incredible work and this is coming for a business owner cutting only exotic material. what is the pad made off @ 1:10? what's your favorite grade for 718 and long does it last on this type of trepanning? Thx

I've been there in 2019 on a trip to Xi'an.

Не проще было справа подавать, прямым. ММ по 15-20? И обороты побольше. У этго резца площать резания то больше, труднее... Хотя, если оклад...😉

Man, That's awesome!

4:50 Why do you have a 4 jaw chuck in a 4 jaw chuck?

That was so expensive.

In.. bloody.. credible. Skill.😮

YIKES.... that is a whole lot of lathe on a heckuva little chain.

Ahhhh. Three years without a video. You're killing us Dave, killing us. Once in a while I go drinking with a guy who used to live in Wetherby, but has now moved to the colonies (as he calls it). His accent is similar to yours but he is a prison guard, not a machinist. It's lots of fun but there's no trepanning talk. The only drilling he sees at work happens in the showers. Ken

Bei bohren sind die angegebenen Toleranzen nicht zu halten .Die Maschine ist zu Alt. Material zu lang

O que e aquela pecinha q ele prende no meio em cima

awesome video

i liked and subscribed

far too fast milling speed

i made many tripanners and used to make the inner and outer cartridges

What do you do for living 🤔? I make holes big and beautiful ones😅😅.

"I'm quite nervous about this" My entire engineering life was a nervous disposition caused by machining tough alloys, the worst being aerospace grade stainless components for Rolls Royce jet engines.

Hi David How are you , I want this tool for drilling For Round 90mm , 80mm , 75mm outer dia 55mm and 45 mm inter dia 26 inch long

It's still a pleasure watching your videos. Christmas 2023. All the best.
