I love the channel but had to say this. When I take my pocket knife out and open it, I expect there to be a blade attached. I expect it to be that way every time, without fail and if not, that “tool” isn’t functional. Maybe I’m too much of an old school hobbyist but I’m not buying any tools that require a subscription to operate. I know, software updates and whatnot. Here is the thing, if it doesn’t already do what I need it to at time of install, it doesn’t work. If it does, it needs no updates.

The program seems great, as you said, very intuitive, but it requires modern windows or other and it`s not a bought software, but leased... I would love to get something like this, but the shapr scoundrels can go and snog some wart ridden wenches, as they ain`t getting my coin... Making of tech drawings or drafts is a both a pleasure and a bloody fucking terror, as some things such as depth are quite hard to depict with more complex geometries, but fuck it, if they can`t be gentlemen enough to offer a lifetime licence and a version that doesn`t reject older, yet sufficient operating software for no reason, i can`t be bothered to fund such a company... Otherwise, a nice project on your behalf, and definitely a great looking program on theirs, but i`ll stick with you and my set of mechanical pencils... All the best! P.s. For tap grinding, i would go with a surface grinder in your case... Just get one of those pink chainsaw blade grinder discs, make a custom arbor or a few plates for side support of the flimsy wheel and voila, you have a nice, thick disc, or a think wheel for such cases... Now you just have to make a radius diamond dresser for the said wheel...

I doubt anyone ever says this, but thanks for the high quality closed captions in your video. My hearing's fine, but for some reason I still prefer to have CC on, just to quickly read something back if I missed it or didn't understand it. It also allows for machine translated CCs, which may not be perfect, but are better than nothing for a lot of people. So thanks for putting in that extra effort.

[@matusporubsky5477]

Hello good sir. Just a piece of advice from a blacksmith, when you are quenching a longer piece of metal such as in this video. Be careful with submerging it into the quenching fluid, to be more specific be aware of any side to side movements because this can sometimes bend the piece you are quenching. The chance of a machined piece of steel bending during the quenching process is a lot lower than on a forged knife but there still is a chance. P.S. yes i have ruined a knife this way : )

[@shenkyeirambo5601]

i use a horizontal boring mill at work. the vertical acme screw has .211" of backlash, the x-axis screw has .127" of backlash, and the z-axis screw has about .165" backlash. you're not supposed to climb mill on an acme thread, though you can, but the amount of backlash means that any wrong cut can shoot the table or headstock sideways, potentially breaking the mill, the part, or the tool. it's been this way for as long as i've worked there - nearly 10 years - beecause any time someone talked about the backlash in the machine, the nuts either got adjusted or they have been replaced a few times. all of the wear is in the screw itself, but my foreman only ever says it'll be adjusted. all of the work and wear is done on one part of the screw so the extremes you have to adjust to are near pristine. i talked to my boss about it a few weeks ago, and the screws are finally getting replaced after what's probably been a large part of the machine's lifetime

Brandon, pure magic here. Wonderful job, wonderful result. 3D CAD does have advantages for finding compound angles and a lot more. Accurate without the otherwise required math. Using the oldskool drawing board is also fun but when you need to get a job done for a living I go for the CAD solution daily. You're becoming a master in the trade! I enjoyed every second of this video. I also replaced a few spindles on my machines but bought a length of the required (left hand) thread at Misumi and loctited it into a working assembly. Nuts I bought too and modified them to the right dimensions. They perform fine for years now. I'm a jobber and I try to find the fastest and therefore most economical way to get my machines up running. But honestly I would like to have enough time to repair a spindle the way you did. It's so much fun and really satisfying to conquer all the challenges in your own shop and end with a better than new result. Hats of to you sir. All the best!

[@Mint_drake]

Very nicely done! Glad to see you back at the surface grinder. Just some tips I wanted to share from what I've learned so far from my journeyman. Next time you need to take a lot off on a surface grinder, try plunge grinding. Use the full width of the wheel to plunge down to 5-8 thou above your target number, then stop and let the part cool completely. Then you can re-dress a sharp edge on your wheel amd take it down to final dimension. Plunge grinding saves a lot of time, and especially for you since you have a coolant system set up.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Ah! Noted! Thank you

[@CheffBryan]

Seeing the seam between the two pieces of brass vanish when turning is always super satisfying! Also, do you have plans for the worn parts being replaced? The handles alone tell a quiet story of years of work and accomplishment, I feel that everything could be brought together at the end as an art piece of some kind

From one engineer to another, bloody brilliant. I was making gears and industrial gearboxes, plus more stuff, for all my working life.

We used to make a lot of our own tooling and watching you, was like watching a mirror, as I done mostly the same as you have done. We were capable of grinding the flutes on taps, we used to make dies as well. The making of the Acme threading tool was well thought out. Really enjoyed this post thank you 👍

One thing I've learned from watching this channel and several others is that I don't have the math skills to be any sort of machinist. One tool just leads to another to make another and so on. It never ends.

[@barcodenosebleed5485]

Don't let math hold you back from giving something a try if you really want to. I wanted to follow in my Dad's footsteps as a kid and be a programmer when I grew up but I'm terrible at math and thought I wouldn't be able to hack it, thinking I'd be doing all kinds of math every day. Like I literally can't add/subtract in my head and algebra gave me panic attacks throughout school. Put it off for years but I finally took the plunge in my early 20s and I've used advanced math like once in my 18 year career. Actually had to do more complicated stuff in my personal life working on my house. Found some KZbin videos that taught in a way I'd never experienced in school and stuff finally clicked. Still can't do stuff quickly because the practice I did in school never took hold or my brain just doesn't work like that, but I can figure stuff out now when I need too. Just wanted to encourage you or anyone else from someone who earned my fair share of D's and F's in the subject.

[@davidtaylor6124]

Fantastic result. The first (and only) tap I have made is a little (about 8mm) left handed square thread double start one. It took me days cutting test threads to get my head around working with the compound slide backlash and then getting evenly sized threads before I could cut the screw and tap. I used a square endmill to cut the flutes and it was ok, and I did think to put the relief on the back of the cutting edges. It was still hard going because I didn't know about those 2 stage taps. Then I spent far too long wondering why it wouldn't cut before realising I was turning it the wrong way! The thread cutter I made broke on the last finishing pass on the tap - luckily I'd made the screw first. I think the steel for the screw was free cutting 12L14, because it's not heavy duty and I wanted easy cutting and a good finish. It's for a steam loco reversing screw. The thread cutter was made from round silver steel so it could be rotated in it's holder to suit the helix angle. Not my idea, but it worked well. The cutter was made to no fixed dimensions or flank angles so sadly this screw/nut is a one-off, even though I still have the tap. It fit so well and was so smooth anyone who picked it up couldn't stop playing with it :)

I really enjoyed this one, mainly because I've had a similar project in mind for many years now. I have an older import combo machine that is metric. Because imperial is so much more intuitive to me, I've wanted to fully convert the axis screws to imperial, or at the least make a new brass nut for one or both axis. There are so many obstacles for a novice to rebuilding acme thread parts, but I really hope to try my hand at it. Funny how something that has been a 10 year mission gets completed in a 1 hour video with all the skills, tools and equipment readily available. Kudos to you for attacking this one!

[@SteelSurgeon]

13:35 You will probably never see this but Im going to throw it out there anyway. There are really only two options that are most likely here. First, the thread is a 9/16-10 acme. 9/16 is close enough to 14mm that you could just be measuring a worn outer diameter to get this size. I find this the unlikely option, however. The more likely scenario is this being a metric trapazoidal thread, TR14x2.5 specifically. The metric version of acme threads are called trapazoidal threads. The main difference between trapazoidal threads and acme threads, aside from the metric vs inch dimensions, is that acme threads are 29 degrees as you stated and trapazoidal threads are 30 degrees. With the smaller thread at the end being a metric thread, my money is on this thread being TR14x2.5. It is highly unlikely that one part would have two different units of measurement used on it. The 2.5mm pitch is just close enough to 10 tpi (10 tpi = .100” pitch and 2.5mm = .0984” pitch) that you probably wouldnt be able to see the difference without a long enough gauge. All that said, the problem I see that could arrise from this is the fact that if it is a trapazoidal thread, your compound dial graduations will now not be accurate do to them being calibrated (probably) to the 2.5mm pitch thread. You can confirm this rather simply by setting up an indicator and checking the dialed movement vs the actual distance traveled of the compound. If you move the compound .100” and the indicator moves .100”, all is good. If you move .100” and the indicator moves roughly .0984”, well then you have a conundrum. It would bother me. Not sure if it would bother you. I guess it all depends on how accurate you expect your compound to be. The issue is compounding error, meaning the longer the distance traveled by your compound, the more inaccurate it is going to be. Edit: Dont just willy nilly trust what I am saying here, Ive given you enough info that it should be easy enough to do research to prove or disprove this. Im going strictly off memory/experience and my own math.

[@advil000]

I don't know how much "I'm frustrated and have no idea how to do this yet" you hide behind the scenes but the fact you were able to do that much quality video while simultaneously learning how to machine a precision ACME lead screw AND PULLING IT OFF (first try?) is pretty darn inspiring.

Watching this with an increasingly beguiling mix of fascination/foreboding/dread/determination. I recently inherited an elderly (1936!) yet elegant old lathe. It has troubling backlash on the cross slide and compound. I'm not sure I'm the man to fix it but watching on in case I persuade myself that it can be brought back to life.

[@InheritanceMachining]

You can do it man. Even if you mess up, you can always try again!

[@siggibohlenbrecher1403]

many thanks for the high quality closed captions in your video.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I'm glad they are useful!

[@Blondihacks]

Aww shucks, thanks for the mention! I aspire to make videos half as good as yours.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Absolutely. You've been an inspiration for me in many ways over the years. And for the record, I aspire to be half as knowledgeable as you are!

Gotta love the idea that your goal with the shop is to ship of Theseus every machine and tool in there. I absolutely love it because they are still the same tool just ... more new.

[@InheritanceMachining]

I don't know if I would take it that far 😂

[@pithlyx]

@@InheritanceMachining i dont know ... those side projects can get pretty out of hand.

[@kylewellman402]

This video is so perfect lol. I literally have 3 lead screw nuts i need to make between my small and medium lathes. I noticed the acme tap design online as well but thought "bearing bronze is soft". Needless to say my first attempt at an acme tap was a fail. Luckily i still have the hss lathe bit i made and never reshaped it. I also like seeing your hss bit worked fine without a rake across the top (neutral) as the machinist i work with wouldnt let it go until i added a positive rake to mine lol. Being a smaller shop and also trying to raise a family in this economy, i cant exactly afford new machines (yet). So i am absolutely loving these machine repair videos you have been doing. And thank you for working out the math grinding acme cutters like that. That way will save me a ton of time even on the cutter grinder we have at work. One question though... wouldnt you want a left hand thread for lead screws? So turning the handwheel to the right pushes the cutter towards the work?

[@Gottenhimfella]

Adding rake to a screwcutting tool which has been ground to the correct flank angles means that it is no longer cutting those exact angles. This gets to be more of an issue if the pitch diameter is small in relation to the depth of thread (which tends to be the case for acme machine feedscrews). Also the problem is more pronounced as the rake angle increases -- 5 degrees probably would not matter, at least for a normally proportioned fastener thread. You probably already knew all this but I'm noting it for others who might read this.

[@blown94camaroz]

I binge watched all your videos and now I'm stuck waiting for new uploads. What have I done to myself. Love the content!

[@InheritanceMachining]

😂 Admittedly that is a lot of videos! Thanks man

[@SteveCallaghan-j4j]

Absolutely brilliant. I did miss the manual drawing though. You and Clive from WorkshopFriend are a joy to see the paper and pencil at work

[@Warrigt]

"How I built a lathe" the series. I love it!

[@Eidi920]

Another great video. After the last few videos with few (or no?) side projects, this one more than makes up for it. Love that you're documenting fixing up this lathe, looks super fun. Can't wait to see it return to its former glory.

[@InheritanceMachining]

Thanks! Yeah they have been a little lacking lately haha

[@MrDrMedicBag]

I normally am not into watching machining videos, but you make them so enjoyable!

[@johnburke520]

Love the side projects they are as interesting as the main work piece 👍🏻

[@wesofalltrades]

Just stumbled across this channel. The side project phenomenon is what instantly drew my attention and commiseration.

[@scott98390]

You might've thought of this already but you should give the previous owner of that lathe lifetime membership to your Patreon. What a great source of content.

[@gilbreathca]

Haha! As a CAD guy who's done both board drafting and CAD, I literally LOL'd at 7:17 and snarfed my ramen soup out the nose! Great humor! Love It!

[@InheritanceMachining]

😂 sorry about that!
