Ja w swojej dobrałem chińskie koła zębate o mniejszym module (drobniejsze zęby) i o innym przełożeniu. Dodatkowo zmieniłem łożyska wrzeciona z kulkowych na wałeczkowe skośne.😊 Listwy prowadnic (regulacyjne) na mosiężne (lepsze byłyby z brązu. Muszę jeszcze zmienić śruby pociągowe na jakiś normalny skok (a nie 1.5 mm)

QUESTION: When assembling the switch and fascia (Fig 3 and 4 in directions) the stated directions say (paraphrased) "Insert the KEPS nuts with the toothed side out". This seems counter intuitive - as you need the teeth against a surface in order for them to lock. Is it just that there is no need for these screws to lock? OR - does 'side out' mean facing towards the outside of the fully assembled table (in which definition would mean the teeth face inward to the accepting holes?) This specific instruction seems counter to logic.
@metalwooddesignАй бұрын
If the nuts go into a recessed hex pocket the washers would interfere with the fit and wouldn't be needed to keep the nut from turning.

Don't replace the drain valve. Replace it with a ball valve with an elbow and 1/4" copper pipe you can open it with your foot.i open mine almost every time I walk by it without having to bend down and it only takes a second or two.
@metalwooddesign2 ай бұрын
Having a valve that's easy to open every time you walk by will keep the water out for sure. Great idea, thanks for sharing!

I had a mini mill and benchtop lathe from Machine Mart with the same problems, the only difference was, that I first made a gear hob using silver steel which was then hardened, Made a 40 to 1 dividing head and plates, cut the gears from steel sourced from the scrap skip at a steel distributers, (with their permission and a contribution to their xmass party fund), and also made a replacement set of change gears for the mini lathe. The mini lathe control panel went south after a couple of years, so instead of replacing the mother board at a cost of £90 plus, I opted for a larger AC motored lathe for which I had to make a reversing gear and also made a taper turning attatchment. turned various morse tapers for mill and lathe, made an extended tailstock barrel for the lathe. The milling machine had the same fine quill feed mechanism with the universal joints which introduced around 15 thou of slop, so did away with that, made and fitted a column side down feed with split nuts to disengage the fine feed which gave far better fine control. Had to remove the spring loaded assist arm, so made and fitted a blank plate with two pulleys to the top of the column and got a long brake cable inner from Halfords, Attached the cable to the top of the head, put a hole in the workbench to thread the cable over the pulleys and through the bench top and fastened a counter balance weight to it. Then spent many a happy hour pottering about in my shed cum workshop until Osteoarthritis of the spine meant that I couldn't stand for more than half an hour at a time.

jesus, my compressor is years old and barely blows up a tyre for a minute before the pressure drops and the motor starts to fill up with air again. I just found out on this video that water accumulates inside and needs emptied, I have had it for years and did not know this, it must have more water than a fish tank in it lol

The handle sticking out the side would anger me and would make my bench not fit and other tool stands and such not flush up to it when not in use. I would prolly use a “tee” connector and offset it inside the bench legs. Shorten the boxes you made to account for space under the bench. Prolly build a third one for additional weight. But all four wheels with one motion, and not walking all the way around your bench to deal with individual lifting casters is pure gold and you can store your bench in a corner if you want.

Thanks for the video. After changing the oil on my compressor, oil started spitting out the top of the oil cap (which seems to have a breather and check-valve of some kind). Any guesses why that's happening? I have the oil level exactly halfway in the sight-glass, and I used oil meant for air compressors (ISO 68).

I have the same Craftsman compressor model (mine was manufactured in 2007). Recently it stopped generating pressure beyond 30-40 PSI and would run continuously. I thought it was a bad pressure regulator, but it turned out to be a blown upper head gasket. This gasket seals between the head intake and exhaust chambers, and my gasket had blown out between the chambers. Once I replaced the gasket it worked perfectly.

You were pushing on the inner race of the bearing when installing it. Shouldn’t you be pushing on the outer race to not damage the bearing?

The bearing was tight on shaft, much looser in the outer race pocket, thus pressing on the inner race to minimize side load on bearing. Thank you for watching! That's a great detail question!!
