HAMMER HANDLE #3 INTRODUCTION TO LATHE WORK (shoulder turning, grooving, threading)THATLAZYMACHINIST

Third part of a six part video describing the machining of a machinist's positioning hammer. This project introduces the novice (beginner) machinist to several basic metal lathe operations as well as introducing basic notions on organizing and preparing a project. More specifically this video presents shoulder turning, square grooving, concave grooving and die threading. This video is part of a free online machine shop course accessible to everyone on my webpage THATLAZYMACHINIST.COM . No sign up, no subscription and no hassle, it's all free and always will be. As for all of my machine shop videos, this video is specifically produced for novice machinists. Thanks for understanding that I am a professional toolmaker and teacher but I am not a professional video producer (and it shows). I produce these videos for fun as a little retirement project that lets me give back a little of what was passed on to me by so many amazing trades people, most of whom, sadly, are no longer with us.

Great videos from NZ 🇳🇿

[@thelittleshed]

I made the hammer yesterday. very fun and educational project. although I have a top lathe, I could not turn a taper. (I couldn't put the tailstock far enough off center and I don't have a taperturning attachment) solved with a boring head in the tailstock. also I had no collet for the plug. keep it up Marc!

Have Healthy and Happy holidays to you and your family

I made that hammer 22 years ago at Algonquin. Certainly brought back memories, though if I remember correctly back then the dimensions were in inches.

[@THATLAZYMACHINIST]

Hi Simon! 35 years ago I was a teacher at Algonquin. When we opened La Cité, I transferred there and we needed a metric project for the first semester. The drill point gage was an excellent project for fraction so it stayed in inches, the 1-2-3 bloc project is in inches because our surface grinders were imperial. That is why the hammer is now metric. I am working on the final segment of the handle project (part four) and it should be online soon. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write, Marc.

[@simongingras2903]

@@THATLAZYMACHINIST If I remember right Algonquin was filled with Standard-Modern lathes and X-L-O mills (the ones with the short tables) all imperial machines and none with DROs. I think there was a lonely SAG12 in there too. The wide use of DROs these days makes working in inches or metric quite easy, no need to scribble conversions all over the drawing anymore! We used Anca 8 axis cutter grinders at work but for really special jobs, the ones where human perception is important we'd do it on a Cincinnati No2 dating from the 50's. Anyway, all that to say being able to work in either system (metric or imperial) comfortably is a great plus. I dug my hammer out of the toolbox, not too shabby after rattling around in there for 20years! instagram.com/p/CJY7PCqhwZV/?

avec tous ces commentaires en anglais, un grand bonjour des cousins de france et joyeux noel

Wish I had a metric thread cutting lathe ;)

[@dwightcarlson7136]

I am sure you could do Imperial thread of approx same size. I haven't watched the other episodes yet so perhaps I am speaking out of turn??? Merry Christmas and bon Annee to all😎😎😎

[@CatmanFS]

@@dwightcarlson7136 I'm sure you can, I just wish I had some metric gears for my 1942 Southbend
