FUN STUFF! Tapered pin reamer on the Cuttergrinder

[@paulbuckberry7683]

I never find your videos too long Steve....................I just allow sufficient time to watch them!!!

[@kristoferjonsson3362]

I've never seen one of those "way to long" videos even though I've seen them all. The longer the better! You're doing it right!

[@SteveSummers]

Thanks😁. I know that alot of people enjoy the longer videos. I'm one of them. Thanks for watching. 👍

[@neila2953]

Nice job. Takes me back to being an apprentice sitting at my horizontal mill watching the tool grinders do their stuff. I actually still have a taper drill and taper reamer from my days in the assembly cell. Assembling the tubes on the aircraft ejector seat service stands.

Those big tap wrenches were the kind used in naval shipyards back in the day when armored warships were being built and overhauled, to thread the huge nickel-steel-bolt holes and nickel-steel bolt retention nuts used to hold armor plates to each other at their edges in some configurations and to their backing ship hull plating and strengthened I-beam and framing supports. The bolt heads and nuts had nickel-steel spacing washers which compressed very thick rubber washers between their contact faces and any other metal objects that the bolts were screwed into to prevent projectile impact shock and the resultant abrupt plate flexing from tearing the bolts apart and turning them into small missiles bouncing around the ship (not good).

Good stuff Steve, thanks for sharing...

[@howder1951]

I always enjoy it when you are trying something new like this. What I would like to see if at all possible, would be a magnified view of the cutter geometry after grinding just to satisfy my curiosity. Awesome versatility on that grinder sharpener assembly, and nice to see you exploring its possibilities, cheers!

[@bcbloc02]

Good success on that resharpen! Those tap wrenches are awesome!

[@edwardsilva895]

That's pretty darn slick!

[@sky173]

Great videos, especially for a newb such as myself. You're full of knowledge that I hope to have one day. Thanks for sharing.

[@dannyl2598]

Thanks Steve. Good job.

[@tonyray4203]

Your videos are never too long Sreve

[@SteveSummers]

Thank you.👍

[@flo_5235]

Like your tool grinding videos very much!

[@michaelschnock3998]

thanks for the effort you went through to share your work and progress. the more i watch you guys, the more i regret, that i am on the other side of the pond. I bought for approx 50$ a box of reamers (roughly 150 pcs) , most likely smaller sizes up to .500 , but a lot of really good brands, sizes, and incremental sizes, So now i am waiting for Jobs that require something between 20 thou, and 500 thou reaming. Let me know if i can hunt for something metric or imperial, ( Drills th, Reamers, Bushings, etc ) Thanks a lot, all the best to you and yours.

[@SteveSummers]

Thanks for watching the channel. I appreciate it. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal on those reamers. I know the ones I have bought new were expensive. 👍

[@delinquentdesign]

Thanks for the late night..er.. early morning tidbit taper came out awesome looked super sharp. Keep up the great work Steve. 👍

[@rgmoore]

I was watching the end of this one and thought for a few seconds that you were wearing a yamaka. LOL, safety glasses. Good video, thanks for sharing.

[@benniethejew]

One of the redoall saw vidoes...I was think "Dang Steve's beard is getting long and grey" Turns out he hadn't actually been at it forever...It was jus peanut's tail.

[@prodoverjeff2876]

Nice job on that reamer. Steve.

[@swanvalleymachineshop]

Nice sharpening job , it's been a lot of years since i last did a reamer on the t&c grinder . Cheers .

[@bigdawgsbusa2]

Morning Steve twice today, great content I love your nothing to it but to do it attitude, I can say I never did any reamers on the cutter grinder man you have came a long way in a short time kinda makes me want to get one again and get back at it

[@SteveSummers]

You should, That grinder is my favorite machine to run. It's not the most exciting thing to watch on video but in person the setups are rewarding... to me anyway 😁. Great to see you👍

[@olavmsonge7552]

Very good chanel. Thank you...

[@dizzolve]

STEVE I have a stuck taper pin on my lathe apron. I'm refurbing the lathe. How would I do this? By hand drilling? Drilling in the press? How would you do it? It's inside the south bend apron but accessible from the top....... drill press is possible but set up could be complicated -ish

[@SteveSummers]

If driving it out from the small end doesn't work then drilling it and moving to the next size up pin is the only way I know. I would suggest setting it up in a machine if at all possible. A long or complex setup is better than taking a chance on shaft damage . 👍

[@dizzolve]

@@SteveSummers Thx Steve.... I was just considering drilling and tapping 1/3 down into the large side and trying to pull it out through a socket or something. It's not a large pin - so that actually makes it harder to work on. It's probably 1/8" +/_. Maybe I can get a little pressure set on this and then put heat to it and see if wants to free up. Back to it

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Steve, the tool cutter grinder really opens up whole lot of advantages, fantastic tool to own for sure, thank you for another great video mate, Saturday nights here are always enjoyable, ATB Matty

Hope Adam watches this, he will be drooling over that viewer mail......

[@CraigLYoung]

Morning Steve! Now I know where to send my reamers.

[@royreynolds108]

I was just thinking he could open a sharpening service when I read(red) your comment.

[@delcat8168]

Nice... I'd never have figured out how that could be done :-)

[@SteveSummers]

Yes you would. If you spent a full day thinking it over like I did you would come up with something 😎

[@tobyw9573]

Considering the price of new tapered pin reamers, I have been wondering if a differently tapered reamer or a straight reamer could be ground with the proper taper?

[@fpoastro]

Would winding a string around the end with a plumb Bob or weight attached work to keep the reamer loaded against the guide pin?

[@matthewgrallert1603]

Mark Bolton I was thinking the same thing.

[@SteveSummers]

I'm sure a setup similar to that could work. 👍

[@ypop417]

Steve Keep practicing on that cutter grinder and soon you will be an expert.

[@andrewevans1658]

Great video Steve! How much reduction in size would be in sharpening a straight/non tapered reamer?

[@SteveSummers]

It all depends on the condition and need really. Next usable size down normally 👍

[@SteveSummers]

This reamer cleaned up with less than .006" of material removal

Hey Steve, Just a little 'tongue in cheek' comment (possibly at your expense), but something that briefly had me thinking....Whuuuttt...Did I see what I thunk I saw... 9:17 Is that a 'tin foil Kippah'???? OHHHH....Safety glasses! Great video! Good information! Best regards, Ken
