Nice job! Glad you're back. I missed this.

[@brianbures4478]

Nice work!!!

[@BruceBoschek]

James Park making a part that weighs less than 2 tons on a conventional horizontal lathe! Something new to see here, folks! 🙂 Well, at least for the start. What a beautiful part it is in the end. Thanks very much for the detailed video, James.

The stick-out of those jaws! Looks like a set of jaws welded on top of another set, insane. I'm used to seeing stuff like that in videos from Pakistan, nor South Korea. Shake hands with danger!

This small piece is considered huge to me :D . Nice chips

[@rosewhite---]

I used to machine great pieecs of stainless like this for pipeline valves in just two operations on a big centre lathe.

[@Andrew_Fernie]

Nice 👍

[@georgecarenzo3890]

Awesome! I need 500 more! lol!

[@Xris-FJ1200]

many thanks for this new video. What sort of coolant do you use, yhe yellow one for drilling ? Is it a special coolant for stainless drilling ? Splendid job !

[@寶寶-n8m]

A little bit smaller than you used to do right ?😅 but still do a good job😊

[@cc88000]

👍👍👍🤘

[@parnuzutech]

Listen process.....

[@chatnik78]

Naja, ist sicher nicht die klügste Entscheidung gewesen die 0,03mm Passung fertig zu machen und dann noch 15kg Material weg zu drehen.

[@advil000]

16" diameter 303? That's got to be over $100 per inch and you just remove everything from the center. Ouch. Just ouch.

Trepanning isn't worth the time of setup or the risk when you have parts to make and the stock is paid for.

[@BinaryBlueBull]

@@jimurrata6785 Learned of yet another machining term and technique, "trepanning"'. Very cool. If you don't mind me asking, what makes trepanning something so complex to set up as to not be worth it most of the time? At a glance and to a layman it appears pretty straightforward but I know that it often isn't when looking at the details. I find metalworking a fascinating subject even though my profession is something totally different. Thank you for teaching me something new

[@jimurrata6785]

There used to be a guy David Wilkes (?) who did massive trepanning -in difficult and expensive materials exclusively - mostly for the oil industry. He had to sell his shop and got canned from his new job. Haven't seen him in a long time, but his videos live on! You could learn more there than I could ever explain.

[@BinaryBlueBull]

@@jimurrata6785 Thanks for the explanation! I appreciate it

[@BinaryBlueBull]

Question: On the vertical lathe, why is there a secondary coolant nozzle spraying? Does it serve a purpose or is it simply impossible to turn off one of the two nozzles? Interesting video in any case, I really like watching machining videos, even though my profession is something completely different (IT systems engineering)

Shiny.

Hate stainless

[@BLECHHAUS]

1.4305 // 303 is much easyer to machine than 1.4301 // 304
