Grinding Arbor Build

[@Proverbhouse]

Just a note from south central Nebraska with a big thank you for all your high quality content.

[@pmae9010]

Northwest Colorado, fun to watch and informative. Wins and fails, that's what life is really made of.

[@user-ii8dz4vu7n]

I can't get over how great your videos are. They really remind me of the old PBS shows. Love watching you work!

[@jimclement3043]

Although I only work in brass, your videos are most informative. Thankyou, Jim ( UK)

[@RockingJOffroad]

Dale, I was the one that you gave the grinder spindle at the Bash. I found out that spindle was for a Covell tool grinder. I started building an arbor for it, but it got put on the back burner for now, I had to get some work out for customers. I need to tear that spindle down and clean up the bearings. Also even though the spindle has a taper there is no draw bar so I need to figure out a way to lock the arbor in place. I didn’t think about relieving the center portion of the taper, I guess I probably should do that.

[@c.w.smithco.2513]

I appreciate that you show mistakes in your videos. It's easy for the viewers of these machinists channels to get discouraged when we only see the successes and not mistakes. Love the videos!

Big greetings from Serbia! 🇷🇸

[@rauldemoura2417]

Great video! Greetings and salutations, from Western Kentucky. Princeton to be exact. Doing machine work and tool and die has long been a passion of mine. I should have never retired,... I DO miss my Bridgeport EVERY DAY!

[@jonathantatler]

I left tool & die making after my apprenticeship and have enjoyed my time but I do still wish for a Bridgeport and a Colchester Master every Christmas. I suspect they're too heavy for Santa, he is an old man after all.

[@rauldemoura2417]

Jonathan Tatler ... I have been wishing for a Bridgeport for many years myself. Taking up woodworking is just not the same. I keep telling myself... if I use a high helix end mill, or maybe some shaper tooling, I can do wonders with wood on a mill!! (all the while thinking of what I can make metalworking).

[@paulstudley299]

IM A BEGINNER IF U CAN CALL IT THAT , BUT JUST AT THE PINNACLE WHEN I WAS LEARNING TO USE A METAL LATHE AND A MILL , THE PERSON WHO OWNED THE GARGE SHOP PASSED AT A RIPE OLD AGE OF 87 YEARS , HE WAS MY LAND LORD ,AND A GOOD FRIEND , BUT IT WAS FUN LEARNING WHAT THE LATHE COULD AND COULD NOT DO AS WELL AS THE BIG HEAVEY MILL, , I HAVE ALOT OF IDEAS I WANT TO START BUT I NEED A LATHE AND A MILLING MACHINE LOL , THE FAMILY SOLD ALL HIS EQUIPMENT ALONG WITH THE TOOLS FOR CUTTING ,MAKES ME WISH I HAD LEARNED ALONG TIME AGO IM 59 YRS YOUNG , TYT FOR VIDEOS

[@Tafs315]

Well, I'm not a machinist I am going to school to be a draft designer. I live and go to school in Waco, TX. Like to heartiness and what you do. I keep watching you and you still make me laugh.

[@BuildSomthingCool]

I hope your laughing with me and not at me😁

[@eddiekulp1241]

We had a few KO Lee's they were light weight flimsy grinders . Only used to pull O.D.s on endmills on one , the other had a drill grinding fixture on it

[@willwyrms6965]

Hi there. I have been following you for a bit now. Not a mechanist so a lot of what you do and say is beyond me but interesting never the less. I am a bit mechanical and I guess that is where my interest comes from. I think at this point I am a bit old at 69 and not that interested to be starting out in metalwork. I do have a woodshop and am happy enough doing that. Formally of Newport Beach, CA and now in Longmont, CO.

[@johnmason6443]

Have watched your channel for 3 years.Good stuff.Denmark.

Great video !! Since you asked, I am watching your videos from Switzerland. Which are equally entertaining, interesting and a good opportunity to practice my English ! Thanks a lot !

Nice video Dale....and from the mountains of Pennsylvania here..!

Hi Dale, all the best from The Netherlands, Europe!

[@HybridiHippo]

Over 6 years I hav enjoyed Your videos,,, Finland I'm living.

[@dannywilsher4165]

I enjoy your videos Mr. Dale!!! Your looks and personality remind me of my uncle George. He was an entertainer from Nashville, had a recording studio and played country music with most of the big name singers back in the day... You two could have been brothers!!!

[@TheGoodoftheLand]

Nice Job Dale! I'm in Texas.

[@christianstark1055]

I am a new hobby machinist, but O1 steel is a PITA till you find the sweet spot machining it. I found that deeper more aggressive feed cuts improves the surface and gets the swarf to chip instead of dangerous strands. This is with carbide inserts though.

[@blacksiddha]

Another cool video sir.... New Zealand here

[@SteveSummers]

Thanks Dale. I made one about a year ago. Fun project. Thanks for sharing

[@stxrynn]

How often do you get hot chips on the top of your safety flops 9:09? I'd be scared to death to wear those in the shop.

[@BuildSomthingCool]

All the time, it still safer then working around horse, You haven’t experienced pain and tell you’ve had a Appaloosa on your foot.

[@ego73]

From Hopkinsville, Kentucky.... Love the channel, Dale. Educational and fun.

[@sickandtiredofcomplaining6574]

Reporting live from Bridgeport,CT ......coolest thing anyone could build now is a vaccine!!!

[@allenmays8512]

I know that O-1 is less likely to warp than other steels, but considering that it is being used as a high-speed arbor I would think that you would want to leave it slightly oversized, harden, then take it to final dimensions. Let us know how it turned out after hardening!

[@homemadetools]

Nice work!

Hi from Fremantle Western Australia, and thank you for education! Cheers

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Dale, at the end when you gave it a spin it looked like it has some run out. Enjoy your content, thanks for sharing. Rick - St. Albert, AB

[@Avalyahful]

Yep, it definitely does look like it's wobbling quite a bit.

[@jgrana587]

stick a clock on the shaft please

[@vettepicking]

of coarse it did, he made it

[@BuildSomthingCool]

Good one, LOL

[@josephlovell6951]

Remember he has to harden it and grinder it in. So I hope he left material

[@1970chevelle396]

Great job. Makes me want to go out and build something.

[@markmuranyi9289]

Dale, besides a collet chuck that someone else suggested try to obtain a 3 or 6 jaw chuck with centering aka set true or adjust true that fits your lathe. I myself have two. I would not be without them. They save a lot of time. All the way from Niagara Falls area.

[@MakersMic]

[@Logicinfact]

I have a secret for you. Please pass it on. To find how much to cut when making a hex/flats. Multiply diameter by .062. that's your depth of cut per side to start. Btw big fan.

[@mickdog2]

I really like what you said when asking us to subscribe...."if I've earned it". I'm in Minnesota.

Great job man. Greetings from Brazil.

[@michaelegan6092]

OK Dale ,so you want to know where I live. I'm English and live in an engineering desert called France. How on earth can you find tool steel at that price when over here mild steel is more expensive. I have met at least 1 good turner but they are very few and far between. All in all STAY away from here!!!. By the way, I want to get in touch with you to tell you a far simpler method for half angle screw cutting. Thanks for all your enthusiasm and excellent videos.

Hi I come from the UK.🇬🇧

[@JRock17991]

There's a lot familiar in this video (To me). I use O1 a bit, because it's a good alloy steel, and often less expensive than 4140. It's also easily hardenable. Love to hear what you think of using it and leaving it in an annealed state. Still has better specs than Mild Steel. A lot different to work with though. I also made a set of brass jaw protectors, that I can't ever get the piece straight or square with XD Great in theory, I can't get it to work well in practice. Thanks for the vids. Great Job!

[@JRock17991]

Love to see you heat treat it.

Hi Dale You are back on track after the grinder cable incident. Well done. I am from Bristol, United Kingdom. Please continue with the great content and no more winding us up to watch our reactions, I refer once again to the grinder cable. The beard puts a few years on you. You might try a goatee go match your devilish side.

How’s the weather back in Ga this summer?

@@BuildSomthingCool typical summer, lots of thunderstorms, humid (air so thick you have to chew it), it will start to feel like autumn pretty soon.
