Boring & Facing Head - Final

[@billdoodson4232]

Wonderful job Matty. I really need to get out in my shop and start doing these things, instead of lying in bed with a coffee, watching you do them.😅

[@MattysWorkshop]

No time like the present mate, Thanks for watching, Cheers

[@DudleyToolwright]

That was one hell of a project, with excellent results. I guess you wont have to dish out $5000+ for a Wohlhaupter.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Thanks very much Robert, Truly appreciate you watching and commenting mate, Cheers

[@ThePottingShedWorkshop]

Always a good day when you've rotated the gear blank a full turn and the cutter goes in the first gap without cutting! 32DP I presume judging from the figures you mentioned. A very nice build. Well done!

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, the gears a M0.7 module, it is a good feeing when the gear turns out correct on the first go, Thanks for watching

[@Allaboutfamily2374]

Sent from CEE hope your doing great my wife just went through 5 week treatment 🙏 for you and the fam !

[@kenpinion8108]

Hi Matty, What can I say, your videos are fantastic at 80 years old I could not do that my hands now shake far too much. The way you explain your build and your calm voice rely make the show, thanks for sharing. Best regards Ken (in the UK.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Ken, Thank you for your kind words, Truly appreciated mate, Cheers

[@paulcooper9135]

That's going to be a handy tool! Excellent build Matty! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Hopefully find a few uses for it mate, Thanks for watching, Cheers

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

very good job matty..thanks for your time

[@MattysWorkshop]

Thanks mate, Appreciate you watching, Cheers

[@kempy666999]

Very nice end result 👍👍👍 Re the gearbox throwing the boring head out of balance: Don't forget that the tool holder assembly is also contributing to an out of balance condition (and to some extent the gearbox is acting as a counter weight for the tool holder assembly). Does not seem to be a problem as shown by the cut you made. 👍 All the best, Paul

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Kempy, I didn't feel any imbalance while I was using it, There was quite a few comments through the series that had concerns that it was going to be badly out of balance though, Thanks for watching and commenting mate, Cheers

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

Bang up job Matty, works like a charm. Nice testament to your skills and attention to details. Really enjoyed the whole series 👍👍 All the best….. Cheers…

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Dean, Great to hear you enjoyed the series, Definitely learnt a lot during tis build thats for sure, Appreciate you watching mate, Cheers

[@MegaRich7]

Hi Matt, Another great show, thanks very much. Sure beats the crap on TV these days. By the look of this project and the standard you have achieved, believe me when I say that you could get a job anywhere. It's very difficult these days to find people who could do anywhere near this kind of work. All you need to do now is to completely ignore all the negative comments on your channel. Water of a ducks back. Cheers

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, Thanks very much for the kind words, theres certanly many out there that have negative opinions mate, Appreciate you watching and commenting, Cheers

[@Desmouffe]

Fantastic. I can't understand how you keep your workshop so clean and tidy.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, I clean the machines every time there used and vacuum all the time, I find a small mess is easy to tidy up, Thanks for watching mate, Cheers

That’s a really great and ingenious build, beautifully made and finished. You’re a true craftsman *and* videographer, Matty. Well done. Hooroo !

[@MattysWorkshop]

Thanks very much for your kind words mate, Much appreciated, Cheers

[@acmemachining]

That was quite the project and you did a great job. Simply amazing.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Thanks very much.Cheers

[@ianmoone2359]

Really enjoyed this project Matty & now I understand what it actually does - it’s even more amazing. This one is a real credit to you, but also to the engineer who designed it to work that way. Going to be hard to top this one, that’s for sure. Inspirational. Thanks for the effort you put in with all the filming & editing & uploading as well. It would do my head in making a project like this without the added distraction of filming it all at the same time.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Ian, The real credit is to Barry for doing a great job designing it, The plans were spot on the whole way through, It was a big learning curve for me and im glad I had a go, Filming definitely adds another challenge thats for sure, Thanks for watching, Cheers

[@bostedtap8399]

Hello Matty. This has been a great project to follow. I've found it very interesting and enjoyable to watch. The new boring and facing head will be a valuable addition to the shop. Most importantly you're out in the shop and doing a bit. You have great machining skills. All the best. Mart.

That's going to be a really useful addition to the tool library. Looks pretty stable spinning away on your mill. I think my mill would walk it's way out of the workshop with that offset 😂. Gives me an idea though for a mod to a standard head. Thanks Matty 👍👍

[@FinnoUgricMachining]

Hi Matty! That is a scary idea that works. I am lucky enough to have a Wohlhaupter UPA3 which has roughly the same functionality as Yours. However, Your version can be done by everyone with a decent milling and turning equipment. Wohlhaupter can be really expensive even if it a used one and it is next to impossible to be made in a home workshop. Yours is affordable. It also makes a good exercise to learn machining. Having that shuriken spinning around is really scary so one has to keep hands and clothing away from it when it is operating. Thank You for a really clear presentation and in particular for the "why is this done this way" explanations.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, It would be great to be able to get a Wohlhaupter but as you say there a mile out of the price range, building this is also a great exercise in precision and keeping tight tolerances, i'm only self taught so if I can build this then anyone can, Appreciate you watching, Cheers

Beauty, real rippa, well done. I am part way through building a Dore Facing head (1980's?) I bought the castings at a Club Auction in Melbourne. It won't be any where as good as that as there's no gear box and it has a round slide instead of a dovetail.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, i haven’t heard of the Dore facing head before, I’ll do some googling and check it out mate, thanks for watching, cheers

[@peterwhroo211]

@@MattysWorkshop Castings were made in England and sold at Dore Engineering as a cheap casting and machining kit and were associated with Model Engineering. Someone bought it years ago (1970s?)and I think it might've been a deceased estate. It was very dusty. Search Dore Boring & Facing Head.
