How to Use a Metal Lathe - Kevin Caron

[@BroImLeandre]

It’s crazy that I know how strong these machines are, but never truly fathomed until I saw some guy get caught in it, whipped around like a rag doll and turned to chunks within seconds.

[@beelover23]

I didn’t know what a metal lathe was until I watched the video of the Russian worker. I’m used to watching gory stuff but that video traumatized me. These machines are so powerful.

[@StephenOshea]

wow i haven't used a lathe in over 40 years. its great to see such a old lathe still in use . bravo great video

[@KevincaronSculpture]

This is a great machine! I finally had to change the bearings in the motor not to long ago. Was the original motor and wiring. Really fun to use and learn on.

[@StephenOshea]

@@KevincaronSculpture its' super nice i used one not so old as yours as part of my. tafe trade skills . . however your is so much older yet it works well thanks for posting

[@pstewart5443]

Crazy how quiet a lathe made 75 years ago is. Would love to have one of those. I really like the authentic and old-school method.

[@KevincaronSculpture]

You and me both! My brother has a wood lathe and when he heard mine he was really amazed! Thanks for watching and posting.

[@oldfarthacks]

If they are making lots of noise, there is a problem. Even more so if the gear trains are disconnected. With just the spindle turning about the only thing that you should hear is the belt that runs from the motor or drive system to the spindle

[@Octokito]

Greetings from the UK! I’m a first year engineering student, and I have an assignment coming up. I need to learn the basics of lathes, and this video gave a really good introduction to them. Thanks for making the video!

[@KevincaronSculpture]

Best of luck!

[@adeboyeridwan8042]

I guess i can learn as well

[@NateDG72]

First year Industrial Millwright Mechanic apprentice and this was extremely helpful. We have an ancient LeBlonde lathe in our shop. It's so used that all the dials almost have the increments worn smooth. I had to make a gap spacer for a paddle in a big mixer the other week and this was good to watch beforehand.

[@KevincaronSculpture]

Exactly why I'm here. Stumbled upon the video on Facebook and was horrified by how dangerous these machines are.. call me a bitch but I'm not ever goin near no fucking lathe ever.

[@TheOcculus]

​@@banginbadger75 Have a healthy respect for how quickly that machine can kill you. Use common sense. Short sleeves and no loose fitting clothes at all. Wedding ring, watch, necklace, etc get put in your toolbox when you're working. Life is not safe. Anyone that tells you they've come up with a way to go through life with no risks is a liar. I don't wear any jewelry ever. I have a buddy that doesn't have a ring finger. He jumped off a stake box truck and caught his wedding band on a loose fastener. Tore his finger right off. His finger and his ring were laying on the planks of the truck bed.

well it's a lathe kzbin.infoUgkxN9zrzkkhnjUF5PQbuA_B1gYdsfCu9k6z but it wasn't what i would have anticipated. Headstock, tailstock, carriage apron are manufactured from aluminum now not cast iron. The spindle diameter for the bearings is too small allowing for a few play in the spindle so I am using some blue Loctite to take out the play.

[@KevincaronSculpture]

It is a fine little lathe. Still learning new things to do with it.

[@paulbfields8284]

I spent 9 years one on one with my dad in our own shop to learn the tool and die trade while also attending 4 years of classes through the NTMA Nation Tool and Machining Association. It was very challenging… now after 43 years I’m still in the shop “cranking the handles” designing and building anything I can conceive. I have what dad called “the knack”..didn’t think I would ever attain that stature.. my point being this 7 minute video is great entertainment and certainly informative but this trade can be very dangerous. A little bit of knowledge is dangerous. If you embark on the tool trades get the education from a trained professional. Or else you will burn up a lot of good tools and maybe even lose a finger or an eye. This trade is the most satisfying occupation for me. Mainly since I’m part of 4 generations of tool makers in my family lineage. That makes it even more special. Good luck to anyone that embarks on this very traditional art form..

[@KevincaronSculpture]

Point taken and thank you for watching and posting.

[@TomHaroldArt]

Thank you for making this video, Kevin. It's a great quick introduction for someone who knows little about lathes, just enough info to make a person want to learn more! I do kinetic metal art, and am seeing a real need for a lathe in my shop. It's time to learn as much as I can so that I make a good purchase when the time comes.

War finishes on industrial woodworking machinery typically have castings just minimally and coarsely ground. Machined surfaces such a table tops were left with coarser machining too.

[@markkoons7488]

I use an Oliver patternmaker's vise built during WW-II. While the dimensions that determine flawless function are all correct, the appearance of the castings is very crude with sprue and mold marks knocked down just enough that the user is not cut by brushing against them.

[@KevincaronSculpture]

This lathe is in better shape than that for sure!

[@geraldestes2470]

thanks kevin - same lathe the high school shop learned us on back in the day...end of semester maintenance was always fun - adjusting the brass gibbs to the ways, lost lathe dogs, etc. at that time carbide insert bit hadnt yet reached many local machine shops although (brazed on) carbide tip bit were prevalent as well as the standby hss cutters - rule of thumb was nothing exceeding about 7 degrees the 'sweep' and 'relief' of the cutter to the face of the work piece on center (material dependent of course - plastic screwdriver handles were introduced as a required term project.) thanks the demonstration.

[@MartinDolan]

Can you do a video about all the different shapes and angles etc of cutting tools? I just got a nice second hand lathe and need to buy some cutting tools and it's a big learning curve to get started when you know nothing :) Not so much threads as that's more advanced, but for example: * Facing the end of something * getting a good surface on a round stock at the right diameter * cutting a grove with a square/u shape/v shape profile * making a conical/tapered shape etc * hollowing out a part (inside cutting) * parting off a finished item And basically what shape cutting tools you'd use to do these things, what angles, heights etc you should attack the metal at I'm an artist too, so it's mainly creative things I'd be using the lathe for so knowing the basics is very helpful! Great video too. I've subscribed!

Kevin I am going to look at a Sheldon lathe tomorrow. About all I know to look for is the amount of slop in the feeds. Too much slack it is wore out. And look at the gears and see if teeth are missing. And if the bed is in good shape. The man tells me it is a 1938 with 11 inch swing. 110 one horse power motor. Anything else I need to look at? Thanks Kevin

[@KevincaronSculpture]

You got all the high points ! Run it if you can . Listen to how it sounds. No grinding , no struggling to turn. Make sure feed works in both directions. Make sure motor runs in both directions . Should be a great old machine! Good luck!

@@KevincaronSculpture thanks for the info. I sure wish that you would do a video about lathe maintenance. I really don’t know much about a lathe. Kind of a beginner type video. The man is asking $400.00 for the Sheldon lathe. I don’t see how a person could get hurt on it if it is anything at all for that price. If I buy it I may ask you some questions if that is ok.

@@KevincaronSculpture well, I lied. I do have a couple questions, but you still did amazing! Can you put a drill bit in the chuck, and hold the work stationary to use it as a makeshift mill? Can you slot holes? (I know, I know, but this would be huge for custom fabrication / brackets) In what orientations can you do things, etc

[@KevincaronSculpture]

There are always more questions!! LOL, Talking about the chuck and putting a drill bit in it to mill with, NO, it doesn't work that way. I have a drill chuck that fits the tail stock at the other end of the lathe. I can clamp a bit in that and spin the work in the chuck to drill a hole with the non-turning bit. But no, you can't use the lathe like a mill and just move the work across the spinning bit if it was in the chuck. Lathes will round things. That is pretty much all they do.

​@William Acheson Yeah, my mates and I were in the common room eating our lunch when the Machinists came in, sat with us and we started talking about the risks and rewards of our chosen trades. Conversation got on to safety, hazards and death then one of them pulls out his phone and shows us the vid. Not a good taste in the mouth of someone who hasn't stepped into the workshop yet and has done pure theory thus far ahaha. Okay well I have sort of tried to flush it from my mind, so I can't say for certainty but from what i CAN recall... Dude is working on a lathe, has like a big bomber type jacket on, goes to reach around to turn the machine off and gets sort of absorbed into the machine. In just a few rotations he's dead, after a few seconds he is just a pile of flesh and mince meat. It's really sad.
