Making a Rotary Chuck Adapter || INHERITANCE MACHINING

[@InheritanceMachining]

I have to credit my wife again for not only the project saving idea, but also for all her support with the channel. These videos wouldn't be possible without her. Join us again on Friday September 16th at 10am EST for what will hopefully be the conclusion to this project. Fingers crossed for no more mistakes. Or at least no more BIG ones. Thanks for watching!

[@KW-ei3pi]

Perhaps she should have her own channel??? Or at least feature her in one of yours. As well, helping your followers to get to know you by making a video about your background, hers, grandfather, etc. would be nice. I really enjoyed your first video that told a bit about you and your grandfather.

Haha, my wife puts up with the mess I make and the expensive hobby. The better halves definitely deserve a lot of credit 😆

[@jasonl.4403]

As a fellow toolmaker and engineer, I think it's great that you don't leave out the mistakes. Anyone watching can learn from that. The adapter looks great.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks. That's exactly why I leave them in.

When we are talking about misstakes, there are 2 different people. The ones who hide it, and the ones who are talking to colleagues about best way to fix it. I have seen both at my work. Everyone makes a misstake sometime.

Thank you, sir!

[@TomoHawKzZ]

There's nothing more gut wrenching than screwing a part, and nothing more satisfying than the bodgery required to salvage it actually coming out looking professional. As a machinist in a repair environment rather than manufacturing, I think I've found a new favorite channel.

[@danshavit4510]

Dude, I've been following you from the beginning of your channel and I just want to say, as a none machinist viewer, that your channel is a wonderful contribution to the machinist community in KZbin. I'm sure you'll grow and have a very successful channel. Thank you for all the wonderful videos. Well done.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I really appreciate you saying that. Thanks for all the support along the way!

I felt the pain, when the sleeve got stuck 😅 This was an absolute monster project, came out nice 👌

[@InheritanceMachining]

😂 everyone knows that "oh shit" feeling. Much appreciated, man!

[@thetoecutter13]

​@@InheritanceMachining Obviously you needed more heat, and you need to heat the entire part, otherwise the rest of the part is just going to suck up the heat and the bore isn't going to expand at all or evenly especially since it os right on the edge. Set an inside mic or a telescope gauge to .003 or .005 over the size of the sleeve and check as you heat to make sure the gauge slips through, then your sleeve should fall right in.

[@jacob_90s]

It still amuses me that a critical step in the process of aligning materials very, very precisely, usually involves wacking it with a hammer. Still enjoying the videos man. Keep em coming!

[@InheritanceMachining]

I literally think about this all the time 😂 It's so inelegant! But it works. Thanks for the support!

[@richardcooke9948]

Drills are made to cut on the end while end mills are for side cutting. When a flat bottom hole is needed, drill to finished size then follow with a flat bottom drill. But you knew that already. Keep up the good work.

[@serketskiss]

Alongside my mechanical engineering degree, I plan to become competent at machining (took my first few machining courses not too long ago). Watching your videos has made me realize that I have a long long long way to go and to be incredibly patient when I'm working away. Subscribed!

[@InheritanceMachining]

You are very kind, but I'm still a beginner myself. There are honestly endless things to learn in this field so you will never get bored, I'm sure. Thanks for the support!

[@TheFlyJunky]

this channel has one of, if not the best, intro song and styles of all the channels I've seen

[@deltamachine2059]

.002" is quite a heavy press for a 1inch sleeve. I use the .0005" per inch of diameter rule. .001" per inch for things that will have a lot of load. Nice save with the sleeve and boring head and a beautiful part!!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Ah, good to know. Thanks!

[@joell439]

Beautiful result for this custom part. It may not match every dimension on the drawing, but when you’re done you can update the drawing to match the part. Happens all the time in industry…… even in aerospace companies. If you want to document these changes, just capture what’s change on a “engineering change order” and roll the drawing’s revision letter from NC (no change) to Rev A. 👍👍😎👍👍. Can’t wait for the next installment.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Oh I know this well 😂 Thanks for watching!

[@hairymcnipples]

Over here, "A" would be a prior to construction rev. Your construction drawings would be rev 0, with the short description "issued for construction" in the revision block, and the update would be rev 1, probably described as "dimensions updated" and the revisions indicated with a "cloud" drawn around the changes in a light line weight. Interesting just how different standard practice can be.

[@inherited-shop]

My father, who worked for Honeywell as a production engineer in their aerospace department, always told me “a craftsman will always make his mistakes look as if they were an actual part of the design” or something very close to that! One of the interesting things about your videos is your willingness to own, or feed to your box of shame, the errors made and how you correct them! Keep up the very interesting commentary!

[@normsweet1710]

My Dad always said “did ya learn your lesson?” I said yes. He said “ok , call it a learning process” Ain’t a day goes by I wish Dad was still here. Praise The Lord for a memory ❤️👍

Your wife is awesome. Thank God for supportive partners. You did a nice recovery and your mistakes remind me that not everyone gets it right the first try. That is so important. Nice recovery too. You really showed the value and importance of not giving up. Thank you for another great video!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you so much and I'll pass along the sentiment!

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

18:49 At least your 'special' CB will live under the chuck, so you will only be reminded if changing out the chuck. I cried out with the quill handle snap. When you found out the one 0.875" hole was actually 1-1/2" 🙂, I immediately was 'brass plug bored out proper' so on the same page as your wife, but I am kind of glad you went steel and it came out beauty, and the co-boring ALL the holes to 0.9 was a good idea. I was a bit worried with the plug after the heat equalized that it may not budge, but glad the 'persuasion' sorted it to full depth. Proud subscriber, waiting for the next installment.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for all the support! It means a lot. Also on the shrink fit I really didn't heat it that much to begin since there was so much mass there, especially with the table.

[@Abrikosmanden]

I'm so happy you inherited those machines - KZbin is a much much better place because of it! You've managed to hit your own style and beat in a sea of machinists on here, and it's so very enjoyable to watch and listen to!

Amazing job! Keep posting more videos. Reminds me of my father. He was one of the best tool and die makers out there (RIP). I use to see him do complicated setups like this all the time as a kid. Now I am an engineer thanks to him. Thank you!

As an electronics engineer who has had to scrap more than one printed circuit board over his 30+ year career, I'm a bit jealous at how _relatively_ easy it is for you to correct your mistakes. Kudos for sharing them with us!

[@InheritanceMachining]

It only looks easy on film 😂 My pleasure!

[@edwardhugus2772]

Not every mistake has a tidy recovery, some tiny bonehead moves can ruin days of work and some very expensive material. Some of these metal products have a hefty price tag from a supplier dont forget. I'm sure you can relate after hours of meticulous soldering only to have a slight lapse or faulty component ruin your hard work :). That was a very good recovery, I'm really glad it worked out.

[@mazya.youtube]

Brandon, I have to say big thanks for your videos. I have no idea why me as web developer have this sick interest to videos of machining. You channel is awesome. Your videos are awesome. I getting huge doses of dopamine watching you videos. Just a few days I got your channel in recommendations and I'm so happy because of it. Only few videos left to watch and I'll be waiting for new videos much more stronger then for all of series I've watched. The biggest appreciations for you and your wife for this story. With you both I have this chance to watch this awesome story of inheritance. I have a chance to improve my english as well. I have a chance to listen to good music. Big thanks right from my heart

[@ZeroneAngel]

This is my new favourite machining channel. Absolutely love the slow pacing, the subtle humour and the awesome results your machining produces. I'm mainly watching it for entertainment purpose since I'm not a machinist myself. I'm more of a hobbyist woodworker. But you wouldn't believe how much tips and tricks a woodworker can get from a good machinist. Everything from measuring to work holding is a infinite number of steps up from what's actually needed for most woodworkers. Me however, I strive for a precision on my woodworking projects that almost(well...quite far from almost, but hey...) is on par with machining. Thank you so much for this channel!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks so much! I do a bit of woodwork myself and I'd say there are a lot of overlaps. Wood also has its own special challenges being non-homogenous and more susceptible to temperature and humidity. From that perspective I wouldn't claim that metal machining is any more advanced. Anyway thanks again for the support!

[@MolonLabe1976]

Excellent video Brandon. I can totally relate. I've made plenty of mistakes myself halfway through a complicated part, and more often than not scrapped the part and started over. My hat's off to you not only for sticking with it but also for owning the mistake and learning from it. One of my first projects was a brass gyroscope. I got all the turning on the lathe done, and it came out beautiful....only to get completely eaten up by a 1/2" drill bit while I was drilling the flywheel. As I was punching the 5th out of 6 holes, the bit grabbed and pulled the flywheel right out of my clamps, totally destroying it. A total loss because stupid me didn't want to clamp it down too tight on my mill table for fear of marring the finish. How's that for irony? Regardless, the best lessons are those that sting a little....you never forget what you did wrong and you always remember how you fixed it. Great content and take take care my friend.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Oh man.. the ironic mistakes like that are always the worst! You usually have a gut feeling that what you are doing isn't quite right then it comes back to bite you... been there before too! Also that's exactly right. You could watch all the videos in the world but until you make the mistake yourself and at a cost, you may not truly learn. Thanks again for the support!

[@Greco1114]

Astonishing job! Never characterize a mistake as stupidity. Stupidity is a result of an intentional error, not an accidental error. Keep up the good work!

[@InheritanceMachining]

I suppose you're right... Thanks!

[@marcusFZ6]

The end product is very nice and you did very well to stick with it and not scrap this part & go for a new one. Working through the problems with nice solid solutions is where it's at. Kudo's to you and the wife for the sleeve idea. Sleeving is something that we do a lot of at work to repair shafts with corrosion damage and also other parts. Not always possible but work well when they do. I would have given the Chuck more time to heat up and expand and at least a good 4hrs in the freezer for the sleeve. A little trick that I've learned is to set your telescope gauge to the size of your sleeve plus a few thou. Heat up the hole, let it expand and when the telescope gauge goes into the hole then your sleeve will fit nicely. Still need a gentle tap. Plus on your sleeve, make a small 60°chamfer so that it sleeve centres nicely in the hole.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks, man. Also very clever idea with the bore gauge. I'll be remembering that one!

[@elluisito000]

One learns more from mistakes than from successes, thanks for another very nice video.

[@InheritanceMachining]

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you very much!

[@Chiefs1582]

I've learned in my machining career that once I started to calm down relax and slow down my mistakes diminished so glad I do job shop work now vs production work.

[@JETHO321]

That turned out fantastic. I'm a gunsmith that started out as a machinist, taught by my father a tool and die maker. Whenever I'm unfortunate enough to have to sleeve something I turn the sleeve OD to the hole ID and then lightly knurl .002 onto the sleeve, epoxy and press into place then clean up. Your repair was perfect.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank a lot! That's also an interesting strategy that probably has its merits. I'll remember that one

[@nunyabusiness3612]

😳 Snuck in a part 2!! Good stuff as always Brandon. As echoed by a lot of other commenters, love how you are so unafraid to share your mistakes and how you went about fixing them.

[@InheritanceMachining]

2 for 2! 😂 Thanks man. I'll continue to share them when they happen. As long as people can learn from them then I think they are valuable to show. And if not, at least they are entertaining

[@makerspace533]

Just food for thought. I wanted to mount a four-jaw independent chuck to a rotary table to hold oddly shaped objects. I was going to make an adapter plate, but lazy me, I decided to do it differently. This was an 8" table, and I wanted an 8" chuck for it. Using the T-slots would have required a rather thick plate. Since it is common for a 4-jaw independent flat-back chuck to be mounted to a spindle adapter with bolts from the front of the chuck, I simply drilled and tapped four holes in the top of the rotary table. I did take the rotary table apart to make sure I didn't hit anything important when I drilled and tapped the front. A simple solution. If I want a 3-jaw scroll, I'll just mount it in the 4-jaw.

Great video. Great recovery. End results priceless. I bought the drawings from the ASME to duplicate a similar build for a D1-4. All I can do is hope it comes out close enough to do the job. Having the tools to work with means everything to a Hobbyist. We kind of learn as we go at times when it get complicated. My mill will be a JET 2hp mill/drill. It doesn't belong to me and sits at a friends shop about an hour away. IF we can get past the setup and take baby steps it might work out fine, of course nothing like you did.

I'm about your age and built my own machine shop (couldn't inherit it) after going to engineering school. I've been at it 15 years. I don't get a lot of time to work in the shop because after engineering i did medschool and soon i'll be a specialist neurosurgeon. I have a bigger mill, a smaller lathe, and a bigger surface grinder. Its interesting how despite different life circumstances we tend to gravitate towards to this childhood obsession of making things in the shop, even after all these years.

[@meocats]

I don't have a bandsaw or sandblaster but I have an ACDC tig welder and my toolroom mill can spin a 350mm disc for parting off stock like a cold cut saw. Originally I wanted a big lathe but i took a mill and smaller lather instead since they were both together at some professor's shop who had to part ways with them due to poor health.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I find the different paths people take to end up in the same place interesting as well. Sounds like a pretty well outfitted shop!

Breaking the quill lever was almost the first thing I did when I started a new job at a machine shop last April. I have a sneaky feeling they get fatigued too much because of a lacking relief cut. New one I made has been working fine, and to make sure it would hold for a while since I made it out of a beefy threaded rod made of A4 steel. (larger diameter than the threads needed, cut of the threads in the lathe (almost all the way, so you still had a shallow thread going the whole way, looks nice) and threaded the two ends)

Thank you both for the great videos. The audio and video quality is also really nice👍 ….and thanks for showing the solutions to mistakes that happen …very helpful 👍🙂

[@InheritanceMachining]

Our pleasure!

0I'm completely hooked on this channel, I really think you've created something great and I'm proud that I was one of your first subscribers. It's only been a few months and I'm happy to see you about to hit 50k! I don't think it'll be long before you hit 500K. Thanks for the great videos, it's extremely enjoyable

[@InheritanceMachining]

I really appreciate you saying that and for your support from early on. Surprisingly enough I hit 50K overnight so that was a nice surprise in the morning 😃 Thanks again!

Neat video. Wow, I haven't seen a drafting machine like that since I was an Engineering undergrad in the late 1960s. I used one that my older brother had, he moved from the machine to a simple parallel bar. When his engineering company hired me an an intern during college, I grew to prefer the parallel bar as well. (sometimes nepotism is very nice).

Thanks for your videos. As a hobbiest setting up my own shop in my shed its great to see these projects and learning points!!!. Looking forward to the next one.

[@InheritanceMachining]

My pleasure! Hopefully seeing my mistakes saves you from making your own!

[@Chris-yk5rm]

Loved the video, i've done the same cascading stupid decions before when making parts... I've learned to take a break and come back when things go sideways! Look forward to your next upload!

[@InheritanceMachining]

That's honestly what I should have done 😁 Thanks!

[@VanFlausch]

5 Words! YOU Are A Great Machinist!

[@InheritanceMachining]

I still have a ton to learn but thank you very much nonetheless 😁

[@r.five.3]

Absolutely love the video quality man this is great stuff. Cant wait to see the final result and get to see this piece in action. Keep it up!!

[@TigerCarpenter]

what a great tip to repair an oversized / damaged hole with a sleeve. sometimes you need to see something to get enlightened

[@InheritanceMachining]

I'm the same way. Glad I could help!

[@bobuk5722]

Hi Brandon. Fascinating. Leaving out practicality I've frequently wondered what it would take to convert my lathe spindle to a 'D' series. The practical aspect being the additional overhang of course. The real answer folks is a new spindle - or lathe but neither of those is going to happen. Still, very useful to see what is involved. Thanks.

Really enjoyed this episode. As my hero Albert Einstein once said "Those who don't make mistakes are the ones who don't do anything". BTW the quill handle you broke can be replaced by after market wheel if you like.👍

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks and very true quote! I've seen those wheels but not sure would like it

[@aronmarden]

That sleeve looks 👌 Also, first time I've ever heard a machinist actually talk about taking the heat of the part into consideration for the final measurements. Of course it's obvious now that you say it but I've never thought about it before. Very cool

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks man! Yeah I usually go by feel. If it's too hot to touch its probably too hot for a good measurements. At least in the ten thousandths range

I do machine work in a food plant maintenance dept. 99% of the work is 303 or 304 stainless. Both have a thermal coefficient about twice that of carbon steel. Consequently, I routinely take the temperature of parts into account on close fitting parts.

Just signed up on your Patreon - it's criminal that you're not making millions off this content, it's high quality, easy to watch, educational, and entertaining. On top of all that your artistic aesthetic in your logo and lettering is simple but refined somehow - you need better marketing or something because I can't believe you're not watched by more people.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I just saw that! Thanks again! The channel is still kind of new. But we are getting there 😁

[@artmckay6704]

Nice recovery! Glad that worked! Hammering on the rotary table? Just asking for trouble..... I can totally relate, though, once setup who wants to tear it all down and set it all up again? I hope the rotary survived the abuse! Learning by doing. That's generally how we all do it. Now you know better what works and what doesn't. You'll never make those mistakes again. You sound just like the rest of us in our feeble attempts to take shortcuts that usually don't work out so nifty. It proves we all share a similar human nature that is always looking for a way to cheat a little to avoid hours of work we'd rather skip. I'd say join the club but you're already in it! Thank you so much for sharing this stuff. Please continue making your videos! Thanks! :)

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks a bunch! So far the table seems ok. Thinking it's shear mass was to my advantage and the blows didn't translate too much in the end. And very true about attempting short cuts and the like. I'm happy to share my process because if it works someone might learn something. And if it doesn't they also might learn something. Plus sometimes it's just comical

[@artmckay6704]

@@InheritanceMachining I appreciate the unedited content as it happens :)

[@SuffolkFarmer]

Fast becoming my favourite channel, Thank you 👏👏

[@InheritanceMachining]

😁 Thanks so much!

[@blubady]

Nice project. I'm currently making an adapter for my lathe to convert it from threaded spindle to D1-4. I was also going to drill the cam holes to size but I'll use my boring head now. Looking forward to seeing next video.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks and glad this popped up in time for you. I actually got a recommendation to bore to within a couple thou then ream the rest for a better finish. The ream I did turned out bad only because I was taking close to 70 thou

[@RavenChopper]

You're work is awesome! You're like the Food Wishes Channel of Machining!

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thank you! I don't know what that is but I'll be looking it up now!

[@brycejeannotte7699]

Great recovery. That part is looking very nice.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks!
