How does a non-american obtain pennies from before ’82?

Just curious whether the run out at the arbor is any different when the belts are connected and there is some tension in the pully assembly.

Being a retired Machinist ! I have done that my self. That’s how you learn .

44:21 “I saw somebody do that once…”

As an apprentice at 16 years old we made a scribing block starting off with a rough cast piece of cast iron. We used a milling machine to rough it out and machine square, adding a slot for the adjuster. We then had to scrape it flat with an Engineer scraper , surface plate and Engineers blue. Once scraped perfectly flat, we then scraped a 3/8" chequer pattern on that face.

I think you will find the company was called Rabone Chesterman. Sheffield was the city for the manufacture of hand tools of many types. Stainless Steel was invented in Sheffield. The tools would be stamped Made in Sheffield, ( not Made in England ) it was world famous. Birmingham was also a tool manufacturing city, mainly machine tools. After all that precision work you use a butchering tool to tighten the nut instead of the correct spanner.

Long time to scrape that plate . Looks like an apprentice job to me !

Hi Tom, I am not nor do I pretend to be a machinist but, I am fascinated by the work of a machinist. Thank you for such a wonderful video. This is going in my saved videos folder under the label "The Best". Thank you again.

We really miss you and your work Tom! Come back to us! Please!

dude i hope you still have a house and you and yours are all right

I would have used a square or an indicator on one of the machine sides .

I would like to mention that there's also double leads and triple leads on acne threads

That URL has been hijacked- you should remove it.

Looks like Ivan Sutherland’s Sketchpad 😂

Disengaging the half nut, then re-engaging in reverse. Two actions which are not necessary. Stop the lathe and come out. do not disengage and just reverse the lathe to the start. Simple. it is exactly the same, less two actions.

Please you have plans where it

We miss you Tom. I am suffering from meatloaf deprivations. Hope all is well with you. Hope to see you soon.

Does anyone see the nut on the opposite side of the spindle ?

At the risk of sounding like a kiss ass fanboy… this place was cooler than any mansion I’ve ever seen by a factor of 10 and Tom Lipton is so much cooler than James Bond ever thought of being lmao

revisiting this, always a pleasure to watch

Hi. Is there any chance I could get those project files? The link in the description is down. Thanks

If you let the dial make a full revolution and then reselected number 1 would that not be same?

The 123 block really shows how tiny your hands are

great but loose the music in back the ground

How would you go about ensuring that you were facing the ends perpendicular to the spindle bore?

How do you then make it square?

Дякую!!!🇺🇦

Every nine year old boy should learn to weld from their father in his workshop. The world would be a different place

Toolmaker's buttons from the odds and ends drawer! Your videos are still worth rewarching 10 years later. Appreciate it.

Awesome machinery, YOURE missed

I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas and are coming up on a very happy New Year

Whats is the name of your book ? I really need it.

Hey Tom, Felices fiestas! I have a question on a call out and thought who better to ask than Tom. Print is asking for .00006 in circularity. First time seeing that call out. The part will be sent out for OD grinding. Wondering how would one even check that feature? Thanks in advance Maestro.

A poor man's Swiss lathe. Excellent demonstration of technique.

Tom, I used clips of your videos to demonstrate the Fringe Patterns while using the optical flats we use here creating learning videos. I cited your channel on all of the captures I used. I captured 2 short captures, and a few still captures to demonstrate to students what they are expecting to see. If you have questions we talk offline. We can even do a zoom chat which a secure platform.

Man i bought a 10ft woodland glass blowing lathe and it has just been a nightmare. I got it in my garage with a wrecker but they cant put it to the back of the garage cause they couldnt fit. I bought these skates off amazon that said theyd hold but they folded lol.

Merry Christmas to you Tom and your Family!

Hey Tom, I really enjoy watching your videos. Just wondering if you stopped the whole You Tube thing or are you on hiatus for a while. Hope you are well. Mike

First up: what camera are you using? Very nice presentation and well produced. All I need now is a bunch of precision tools and a proper education with a ton of experience. No wonder the next generation buys new in the box. I want the tools! Now all I need is the space to put them in. Thanks for the excellent presentation.

Happy holidays!

My name is Michael J Caboose and I hate babies!

At 12:00 Use an angle grinder.

Ha!!! You just saved me 15 minutes...or probably longer. Thanks!!!

i want this in my skateboard

Mit művel ez az egyén?? A hideg ki ráz mikor ilyet latok precíziós műszerrel tenni!! A racsni azért van a végén, csak azt szabad tekergetni , az a megfelelő nyomatékot adja !

Completely lost here. Engage or disengaged….How are you getting a metric pitch (without change gears!) when the lead screw isn’t a metric thread?!!

When I was a lad, supposedly, if we did something like this in the school workshop, we would be sent home and asked to write a 4-page essay on the use and misuse of tools! If we are doing something with abrasive paper, a piece of plate glass might suffice? Keep up the good work!

Some of the early day tool room finishing lathes had a very similar sensitive drilling lever incorporated into the tailstock. I have one that was made in the 1940s.
