Lathe Clutch Shaft Repair Pt 2

This video will conclude the repairs needed on the Colechester lathe clutch shaft. I'll do a Eutectic flame spray repair on the small end to repair the groove that was worn into it. Lastly we'll mill a new 10mm keyway into the drive end to complete this repair.

Grandad's inside micrometer. I have a number of tools that I've inherited, and every time I pick them up I think about that person. Can't ever be replaced.

[@hodwooker5584]

I have my brotherinlaws Gerstner tool box and many of the tools he used in his work as a machinist. He has since passed and is deeply missed. I respected this man as a friend and brother and when i touch his tools it always brings memories and often helps me to do a better job. Items from family and friends can be very important to another generation.

[@chefbob09]

Always a good day when abom posts a video. Incredible skill, craftsmanship and educational

[@jwdickinson643]

he is indeed the neurosurgeon of all thing metal. 👍👍👊👊

[@georgemiller6930]

@@jwdickinson643 yo I love that!!

[@Abom79]

Thanks Bob!

[@Yawwee]

I"m not a machinist, but it sure in fascinating to know how all them grooves and cuts get made in a shaft or a gear. Never seen spark spray welding to build up a worn area, just amazing !!! Thanks for educating me on how it's done. A true learning experience !!!!! And when you explain what your doing, it makes me admire your learned knowledge !!!!!!!

[@ScrewDriverxxx]

What I particularly like about this video is how obvious it is when someone speaks with authority on a subject.

[@Abom79]

I may not know a lot in this world but what I do know and understand, I’ll share it with you.

[@goboyz8016]

Every time I see you with your father, and grandfather at the end of your videos it makes me think of my own and how much I cherished the times we had together and all they taught me over the years. I miss them and watching you work reminds me how valuable it is for us to pass knowledge, old school work ethics and techniques the old timers passed down. Love to watch you work my friend. I can't help but wonder how good you have gotten from the experts you had around you. They would be very very proud. Keep up the great work.

[@WilliamCHyland]

More than just a little entertaining, Adam. Your level of craftsmanship is a jot to watch.

[@theharbinger2573]

It is always a pleasure to see the old measurement tools still doing useful and accurate work. Makes an old man like me smile.

[@raymurphy9749]

Ah, a midweek treat, cheers Adam

[@josephcote6120]

My favorite kind of shop video, using your machines to fix up other machines. With me it's vintage electronic test gear, but it's all good.

[@chicoern]

Love seeing you spray weld, I didn't even knew this technique existed before seeing you doing it

[@BrianEltherington]

True mark of a real pro - you make it look so easy! Also, great explanation of the camera parallax that turns worry warts into keyboard commandos.

[@Stealth5280]

Adam you been doing this a long time, you dont have to explain yourself to probably some kid that is fresh out of tech school who can't hold a candle to the decades of work you have done. Some keyboard warriors out here.

[@Dean5073]

I would love to see to see you do a hardness test on the spray weld vs the actual material below it

[@darrinpennington]

I'm here for the entertainment. I'm fascinated by how precise you are. Definitely cool to see you rebuilding these parts.

[@michelhv]

The one thing you have to check when spray welding is looking utterly badass. I mean, you could create a subscriber rush on your channel that will clog KZbin’s tolerance fit for newcomers, and then you’re stuck signing autographs to strangers on street. Sucks.

[@slypig24]

I never get tired of watching spray weld build up in action.

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Looks like I'm spraying the chuck! Never looked like that! Great job Abom 79

[@steveshoemaker6347]

l sure do like watching the man with the BIG SMILE😁👀 do his expert work Thanks 👍...Shoe🇺🇸

[@tattoosteveneo]

You should be a machinists teacher! That and safety as well. I’ve seen a lot of KZbin machinists and none are as good or as safe as you are. Now that’s something to be proud of.

[@Just1GuyMetalworks]

Great job, Adam 😁! Those worried about you frying your chuck obviously don't watch your work enough 😊. Cheers!

[@JohnDoe-es5xh]

Hi Adam, as a German I love your precise acting. Keep on with your reliable work.

[@billabernathy1541]

Beautiful precision work, Adam. You are a master at your trade. Can't wait to see what you do in the new shop.

[@Abom79]

Thanks Bill 👍🏻

[@ton146]

To bob bob’s comment I would add inspirational. Although I am only a hobby machinist I do find abom challenging me to tackle things I would never have thought possible. Tony

[@johnlennon335]

I hope people understand the difference between fire-cloth and oil-cloth. I had some old canvas that I thought would be a good cover for welding. It was not. Learning from mistakes! Wisdom doesn't always come easy.

[@vancouveropenbsd985]

It has been said that experience is the cruellest of teachers because she gives the test before the lesson.

[@JohnBodoni]

I've never seen a new one, but I bet a new one doesn't look any better than this one.

[@toms.3977]

I watch strictly for the entertainment value. Besides, it's cheaper than Netflix. Thanks, Adam!

[@deaftodd]

Whenever Adam wears that google it makes me think of Riddick

[@Narious324]

I love watching your videos. I will never be a machinist, but you have made me love the trade. If we lived close, I would take you out to dinner.

[@artmckay6704]

Thanks for sharing! You're a superb teacher! I am certain that Trade Schools' students get a lot out of em! Concise and informative. Not a lot of fluff, which is appreciated.

[@BruceBoschek]

I love your look when you put on that cap and those glasses and then wield that flame sprayer! The flame from that Rotojet is really impressive, almost as impressive as how fast the build-up was. Thanks for another excellent and instructive video.

[@Pyle81]

The flame spray welding has definitely been a welcome addition to the repair and remanufacturering of expensive (Or not available) damaged parts. Its not for every job, But when used it sure makes a nice repair.

[@PhilG999]

That is SO true! When I was in the bearing business (back in the '80s) we sold a LOT of "Speedy Sleeves" for repairs like this. No flame spraying at that time. Basically, a thin sleeve that was pressed (actually "pushed" on by hand) on the worn shaft and then the new bearing installed on that. Not an ideal repair by any means ...

[@mechbest8685]

Abom! You didn’t smile after you turned off the touch like you normal do. Good stuff thanks for the content

[@mannys9130]

@@SouthTexasSunsets I disagree. 🤔 How is that creepy? Adam has a wonderful smile. It'll brighten a room and it's great seeing how much he loves his work and the tools of the trade. You can really tell how satisfied he is with a tool or result when he smiles. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@bdkj3e]

Fantastic, I absolutely love this method.

[@jdavidkatz]

This is an excellent video. With all due respect, I much prefer this kind of video to the meta videos about your shop and machine tools.

[@Abom79]

David, I share all aspects of the shop and work. Some folks just the work and some like everything. I’ve always shown everything I get into. Not every video is just the machining.

[@jdavidkatz]

@@Abom79 I completely understand. You have a wide audience. It's your channel and from all indications you've put your heart and soul into the effort, and it shows. I was simply expressing my personal preference, shared, as you mention yourself, by not a small number of your loyal subscribers.

[@williamweesner1191]

I don’t know if it’s in this video, but the “ don’t make the mic read what you’re looking for” is really good info. Use to do that years ago and when you said it I LOLed. Love the in depth platform.

Great Job Adam , I love good ole American job shop repairs ! saves down time and cheaper than a new part .. ENJOYED !!

Flame welding is a mystery to me. Saw it for the first time demonstrated a couple of months back on a other KZbin channel. It’s fascinating watching you work and your end products are top-notch. Keep it coming.

Flame spray welding is SO COOL!! Thanks for sharing! 👍🙏😎💯‼

Great job as always. old school is cool school in my book . Your dad and grandad done good and are proud...I'm sure .

Good deal, got some education and enjoyed your work/method. Thanks for the look!

Always good usable contents. I enjoy your attention to detail.

[@frankish5314]

Very nice. I learned to turn on a Colchester back in the UK before I went to University ( and then I was only allowed to drive a calculator for the rest of my engineering career). Just today I did a similar weld/turn/thread job on my brand new Precision Matthews 1440GT.. Thanks for all that you do as I learn something new on every one of your videos!

[@SteveC38]

Nice work, Brother... and hey, anytime we get to use one of Grandpa's tools makes for a good day!

[@kensherwin4544]

....but......but.......but it's not metric! By the way, I completely agree with using imperial unit in a shop full of imperial tools. I love using the tools I inherited from my dad. Part of him is still here.

Very good work brother. Truly a lost art.

What Colchester?

Nice , i will have to get my one out when the new shop is finished !

[@thatoneguy9660]

I'll be honest when you first showed this shaft I thought oh good you're going to show cutting the splines when you make the new shaft because I really thought it was trashed but you sir brought it back from being scrap & did it with less work then making a new one.

[@jamesbruno5896]

Awesome job Adam, that looks better than new!
