I'm more of an electronics guy in my skill set, but this stuff just fascinates me. Manufacturing parts as needed is freedom. True freedom. I'd really like to be able to make replacement parts for the vintage tape decks I work on, LOL

[@aususer415]

I too have background in electronics, IT and now healthcare.... but I started to learn machining as a hobby and love the precision and skill it takes to make a thread. Chris’s threading video is extra wonderful as he works mostly in metric - and metric threading is something few other youtubers focus on (🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺oioio). His method for video production has been replicated by many -but like his miniature machining skills-rarely achieve to such precision. Clean and simple! Try machining... try to aim for finishes like Chris does... you don’t need a lot of money but you will need patience. ;)

Brings back memories of me and a Harrison M250 lathe in my first job as a Toolmaker. Hand grinding 95%+ of my tools myself, mostly self taught. I preferred roughing the tool on the wall grinder, then finishing it on the surface grinder. Parting-off blades 0.010" thick. Having to flat-bottom 1.0mm.diamerer drills by eye to make special insertion tools for I.B.M. I often miss being on the tools. Turning, milling, grinding and jig-boring. CNC's are so soulless.

[@americanstriper8666]

If i were to learn machining for a job in the manufacturing industry, am I more likely to learn to do it on a CNC/computer programming than the way you did it? Just wondering.

[@ianmorrison6798]

@@americanstriper8666 there wasn't a need at the time, nor the budget for a C.N.C. lathe, as my company was in its infancy. Indeed there is a place for each CONVENTIONAL and C.N.C. requirements. If you're making one-offs or low numbers of something it's more efficient to make them on a conventional lathe. However, if high numbers are required, the extra time writing the program for a cnc is cost-effective, and can be stored for future use. When I started serving my apprenticeship, the company only had an old MYFORD SUPER 7 to use (a model-makers lathe) then a newer one, then a brand new Harrison M250. And further lathes as the company grew. Conventional and CNC lathes both have their place still.

nice work bud ive watched a few people screw cutting here and thats about the best ive seen yet. its been a long time since ive had to do any manual screw cutting and generally it was between centres with a face plate and a dog, we still ran some positive rake on hss tools and i noticed you even flattened the point,, thumbs up. great to see the thread end groove although we would radius it, two thumbs up for showing the test cut and pitch gauges. just for the sake of saying it we would also do a full depth of thread form cut as a lead and depth indicator on the face . cutting would normally be a ten thou depth cut and subsequent cut would be the same with the addition of a five thou side adjustment on the compound slide to give some tool clearance on the trailing edge. then a touch up with a stone to cleanup the thread faces always done with coolant the tool would never fill the thread form completely as there would be no tool clearance and allowed clearance to be adjusted in the root. not saying its the only way just how we did it in the old BHP days. love your work. admire your patience cheers

Just a wee tip. If you do not need a square shoulder at the junction of your thread and stock, put in as big a radius as you can and make it smooth and ridge free, and angle cut the outer undercut edge with your threading tool prior to thread cutting. It will make dressing up the burr you always get and the big smooth transition radius will help prevent fracture if you are using it for a lever such as on a drill press quill. Nice job all the same.

Your careful grinding and honing is very much rewarded by the excellent finish of the thread. Despite the dominance of carbide inserts (even amongst minilathe users) they're just not as sharp as HSS (can be...)

[@sciloj]

To be fair towards the carbide tools, they aren't made with really sharp edges for the specific purpose - to prevent chipping the cutting edge. It's especially critical with less rigid small machines. That's the main reason why mini lathes and mills benefit from HSS tools - they simply last longer there.

[@paulwomack5866]

@@sciloj I'm not quite following your various statements. What tools are prone to edge chipping on which lathes? As a data point, HSS was used (with advantage) on large industrial lathes prior to carbide's introduction (circa 1935)

[@sciloj]

On any less rigid lathe, carbide tools get damaged easier than HSS. Mini lathes are usually less rigid. That's why HSS tools are better for small lathes.

[@landlifem5872]

@@SiIverBacks Recycled steel is never as good as new steel, especially after its been turned to swarf as there is more contaminants. Where I work we machine tons of swarf a day, literally, as it's heavy industry. When you have offcuts, especially of nickel products it just gets sent to the plant they make the steel and re-melt it if you can be sure it's all the correct grade. When it's turned to swarf it needs to go to get cleaned, sorted all sorts to get rid of contaminants like broken carbide, coolant, scale and anything else even if you can keep the correct grades of swarf seperated. Most places the swarf will just go to the recyclers with all the other scrap and it goes for "pot metal" , nothing is assured , it's usually low quality, the Chinese often use it

[@Madmoody21]

@@landlifem5872 The iron content of sorted by metal type swarf is much higher than raw ore pellets. Swarf being what you call dirty is totally viable of being recycled into high quality metals and steels. Recycling of various metals is not something that can be economically done on small garage scale to the same quality standards a real mill can do. Cost wise for ferrous metals it generally is not worth it to re smelt such scrap.

[@Anenome5]

My old mentor's trick on this is to feed the depth in at 60° so that you have only one side of the bit cutting at a time, not both, which prevents chatter and ugly surface finish.

[@smellsofbikes]

A closely related strategy is set the compound at just slightly less than the included angle, so that the vast majority of the cutting is on the leading edge, the receding edge takes something like a finishing cut, and it simplifies the advance math because you zero the cross slide each time, then advance the compound just a little. At the end of the cut you back the cross slide out one rotation, reverse, advance it in to zero, and advance the compound. This reduces the possibility of advancing the wrong amount.

[@dburns8381]

Also, it was not shown, the compound is set to 29 & 1/2 degrees.

When l first cut threads on a manual lathe i was instantly spoiled. Hardinge HLV-H. Single Tooth Reversing Dog Clutch in the gear train between the spindle and the leadscrew. No matter the thread. SAE, ISO, DP or Module repeatable pickup every time. No opening and closing the half nut. No watching a threading dial. No reversing the spindle to wind the tool back to the start. Every home hobbiest with a lathe should build one for his shop lathe. After I was judged Proficient at grinding tools off hand I was allowed to make tool grinding blocks. From then on I always ground my threading tools on a surface grinder. Perfect 60 degree included angles. perfect side clearance. Plus l was able to grind top relief for when cutting tougher materials. Wound up making a block for Acmes and an Adjustable block for specials and stepped form tools.

I am open for any ideas, or confirmations. Thanks

I have no doubt that Chris knows his equipment really well, but those who don't might fail by blindly following his steps.

So, don't do that unless you know for sure that it is coaxial.

A few situations; as having the option to make threads in a lathe and threads with a die are both options: 1) dont have a die to a specific thread size- maybe you need a 10-32 thread made but you don’t have the die in hand. 2) versatility+accuracy the machinist is given/provides with

Is this reply to Adam Savage's try on lathe threading? :)

[@sciloj]

While Adam showed some trick that could save a novice's ass by preventing crashing the tool holder into the chuck by reversing the process and cutting away from the chuck, he also showed the wrong and dangerous way to increase the depth of cut. With threads of that size, one should never use a cross-slide to do that (that's exactly why Adam kept messing up everything - tool pressure was growing tremendously on each step since both sides of the tool were engaged in the cut). Chris, on the other hand, showed the correct technique of using the compound slide - that allows to engage only the left side of the threading tool and keep the proper pressure.

is... is this a responce video to Adam Savage having a hard time doing this very thing?

I found a preprint by Budiselic et al. “Antikythera Mechanism shows evidence of lunar calendar” online. Could this be your long awaited paper?
