Making a very useful tool for a mini lathe

Its so satisfying seeing rusty steel being made beautiful.

[@W1KAB-9]

While that was a lot of work just to make an arbor, I do find value in watching these types of videos. I’m going to need to cut a slot on a future project. In the past I would have used a bandsaw but the results would be very sloppy. I totally see the value in doing it this way to get a far superior product! Ideas come from unexpected directions! THANKS

[@randombiopod7384]

Beautiful production and informative, thank you for posting!

Hardening seems unnecessary here. My shop-made slitting saw arbors are non-hardened mild steel, been using them for years.

[@pauljcampbell2997]

I mean, unless there's a down side, may as well.

[@wizrom3046]

I agree with him, hardening is a total pain to do, causes warp and scale, and just really doesnt help anything here. Hardening is useful for sliding wear surfaces, OR surfaces that need to withstand point loads and crush forces etc (like vice jaws). Since this is just clamping a saw blade the hardening is not needed.

[@pauljcampbell2997]

​@wizrom3046 Fair enough. Thanks for clarifying your reasons for not hardening the arbour. I'm learning something every day! Cheers mate!

[@leerogers6423]

All pretty much pointless. Arbours like this are everyday items often made for a job and used once. A lot of pointless work here even for something that may be used regulafly.

[@drewcagno]

Let the man cook.....

[@wgm-en2gx]

You took so much care in ensuring that fit would good. However, I have never seen a slitting saw or gear cutter that ran true!

[@hammerland4028]

By the way, me too

[@mapp0v0]

I bought tools that belonged to an old machinist. One of his gear cutter + Arbor had a paper tag "this Arbor runs true" 😀

[@AlsanPine]

while hardening here is necessary, as others have mentioned, i am more focused on your process. i like your solutions for hardening 🙂

[@philsouster7221]

Well made, but stop leaving the chuck key in the chuck

[@hammerland4028]

I don't see anything dangerous in this.

[@untitled2792]

if the machine gets turned on by accident while the key is in that thing will fly and put a hole through whatever or whoever happens to be in the line of fire. search up lathe accident videos

[@MatDart]

@@untitled2792 It is rule Number 1 for lathe work - otherwise one day you Will forget you've left it there and turn on the lathe...

[@carybusler8013]

When I had my shop for 35 years I never had time. To make a simple Arbor. I usually just bought a new one for $50 bucks

[@CoolIdeasDIY-qv1nz]

Great video, colleague👍👍👍

[@hammerland4028]

Thank you, colleague.

[@КалупаКалупович]

Я токарь, но даже я после работы люблю посмотреть видосики про металлообработку.

[@doug3458]

You showed hardening, but not tempering. Without tempering, the steel will be glass hard and brittle.

[@25409019]

well done, ,man! Brazil.

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Very nice work. Very handy tool

[@craigywaigy4703]

TOP TIP: Whenever one hardens ANY fixture, mandral, ETC, then ALWAYS RAW MACHINE OVERSIZE. In this example, the arbor should have been a tight push fit, and with oil quenching it'll become a push fit.... There is NO PRACTICABLE MAGIC RATIO, but the SMALLER the part, the greater the proportionally dimensional change...... If precision is important in the Hobby/jobbing shop, then use medium carbon steel(like you used), and DON'T HARDEN, as the material is intrinsically robust and abrasion resistant ie. Will function WAY BEYOND the user's needs over time. Knowledge is more than that imparted("Monkey see, Monkey do", but the ability to apply understanding of the principles that UNDERPIN KNOWLEDGE. Great video, and good to see your reflections re: machinery and its "perceived" uses! ❤️🤔👍

[@ThanasisThomas]

Are you still satisfied with this lathe?? Do you use the same motor?? Peace from Greece

[@hammerland4028]

This is a small low-quality lathe, but I don't have another one), the motor is standard, but I plan to replace it

[@britenrhodehouse8692]

Go big or go home has left the chat😂😂😂😂 but cool all the same!

[@Bob_Adkins]

Where's the tap? I wanna see it cut the tap! :)

[@manaressoknives]

Very interesting video. Wich steel did you use?

[@hammerland4028]

Steel type unknown

[@colincrooky]

Hi, why didn’t you harden the shaft after finishing it? Thank you, great video and very informative.

[@hammerland4028]

After hardening, the geometry of the part may change

[@colincrooky]

@@hammerland4028 There is always a reason. Thank you.

[@miguelcastaneda7257]

Well a step b beyond after oil hardening polish...then heat till starts to blue then water quench....gets a fairly good Rockwell

[@TadausSchnieders]

What is the method to adjust the compound slide angle. I see you using an alle key.

[@hammerland4028]

There is a video with this modification on the channel

[@JbGreenBombs]

Wow! I have never seen so many bad machining techniques in one video

[@eddietowers5595]

Two words that may be a game changer for you: Band. Saw. It’s this new novel way of cutting steel, my friend. Everyone does boring heat treating videos…oh, but not you.

[@baggismtoday]

I use a slitting saw instead of a bandsaw...because I don't have room for a bandsaw.

[@jackfromthe60s]

Bandsaws make horrible cuts. Slitting saws make nice cuts. I have both.

[@schrauber-holgi510]

Erkenntnis: Nicht jeden Stahl kann man härten. 😅

[@hammerland4028]

The problem is that the grade of this steel is unknown, and my muffle furnace is out of order

[@hejrup2152]

5:30 Too little of both oils. It overheats and quenching is insufficient.

[@ThanasisThomas]

Did you learn to use the lathe alone?

[@hammerland4028]

Yes, I did

[@evgesh87]

Это мало масла при закалке, скорость охлаждения мала

[@hammerland4028]

Там скорее всего и недогрел немного

[@TamahaganeSteel]

you tempered it a bit to much but cool

Backing music sounds like a slow 1 banana, 2 banana, 3 banana etc.

Never seen anybody use their lathe as a furnace before.
