Lathe restoration

Hope you guys enjoy the video. Been too busy last few months but really happy that i finally finished this restoration project - (WASINO 550 - made in Japan - 5 horsepower)
Thank you so much for watching! new videos are coming up this week (i hope lol)
Thanks for the support: / calem21

[@Bartlomiej_Ciernioch]

Ok taking it apart is one thing but put it back together so that no screws remain and it works...that is a challenge. Gj bro you got ballz!

[@GameHEADtime]

He does more then that covers bare areas with paint that are bare for no reason... he also lubricates it and removes rust etc etc wiring probably a lot!

[@WrongBrothersRestoration]

Hi, Please watch our mini metal lathe restoration.

[@eddiemill6600]

If I disassemble and reassemble a machine like that, it would probably remain enough parts to build a new one.

[@gobshite99]

I was thinking the same about myself.

[@iantheorem]

It’s so beautiful. You did a wonderful job on returning this lathe to its former glory. These old Japanese lathes were built to last.

[@walwilliams5534]

Viewing this video was a calming joy. To see something of such practical importance, once-neglected, but now revived with the care that it deserves, was a fantastic experience. You, Sir, are a testament to patience, dedication, and skill. Thank you. (I will now share this with at least 15 people who will, as I did, sit spellbound as they watch it.)

thank you!!!

[@tomeyssen9674]

I'm speechless with the results! Just a great job.

We've also made mini metal lath restoration.

This is absolutely beautiful work man. I really appreciate people who care for their tools, and are able to give a used and abused machine some much-needed care and attention.

[@kenparnell4297]

I like seeing a young man taking an interest in restoring and repairing old equipment. Good Job.

[@ProfessorMAG]

Beautiful old lathe with hardly any wear! We can't find anything like it here in the states. Very heavy duty clean old lathes are impossible to find here. Most shops sold them for scrap when they switched to CNC (or went out of business). You did a fine job, I am jealous.

[@plymouth-hl20ton37]

professormag really I found in the last year multiple Monarch lathe from World War II in perfect condition for 2500 bucks where are you looking

[@ProfessorMAG]

@@plymouth-hl20ton37 Southern US, nothing anywhere as nice as what Cà Lem Found. If you look closely, his doesn't have any wear on the ways. That is my standard. All the photos of lathes for sale should include the first foot (or two) of the ways, but its usually hidden (on purpose?).

[@APage-hn6cz]

We have a 1951 Lodge and Shipley Model X in really good condition. There's hardly any wear on even the most traveled areas of the ways and virtually zero(.002) backlash. Our 61 Southbend however.... Can still hold a thou but it's one I would like to restore in the future.

[@michaelbaker9839]

This is amazing. I know nothing about lathes but they kept me fascinated until the end. Great job

[@woodscreekworkshop9939]

Beautiful work! I am so glad to see you making videos again, we missed you. 👍🏼

i missed you guys too ;)

[@BruceBoschek]

This is really amazing. Everyone has already said all the good things here, so all I can say is Ditto! This was an enormous undertaking for one person.

[@machobunny1]

Almost makes me want to dredge up an old lathe from the bottom of a river someplace and start a project. Love the subtle 2-tone green. Very nice work. It's hard to kill these machines.

[@DuncanAitken]

Amazing result! Thanks for giving the old lathe new life. And I love your humour, haha. Looking forward to the next video.

[@Neptune730]

Hey buddy, That lathe looks great. Nice to see you post a video again. I have a 1940s Southbend lathe a friend gave me I need to restore also. Now lets see you make some chips on it.

[@radishfever]

👍 color looks good and restoration was impressive.

[@serdaraytemiz]

When I saw you chipping away at the concrete floor with hand tools I said "man that will take 3 years"... 2 seconds later, it says 3 years later on the screen. Iwas laughing hard... I do not know if it was intentional but the two tone green actually looks really good. It gave the machine more depth. very quality work. I had a heart pounding moment at teh "stay there" scene.

[@Iceking007]

Yeah, I would not have chipped out my floor, image of he ever has to move it again, or level it. Great job though.

[@lexdemonica]

Your dedication to restoration is so relaxing to watch. Just magical.

[@markhall7646]

Excellent restoration! It's great to see older machines like this put back to use, rather than rusting away.

[@DuBB900]

Awesome job!! I worked for a company were we would replace all the electrical on lathes an many other industrial machinery that were being resold.

[@GeoffreyCroker]

Awesome CaLem! Green on green. I like your style 👍

Thank you buddy

Youre doing all that by your self, youre a badass dude

[@mortenbakke2810]

good job bringing that old thing back to life, looked good in the end too, and worked fine it seemed. gratz on your very own lathe:)

[@ApprenticeGM]

You are a BOSS taking on that restoration! Beautiful job! I feel confident I could take it apart and clean and paint it . . . unfortunately it would stay in bits and pieces and I would despair in putting it back together in working order like you did. I am really impressed - thanks for sharing for others like myself to learn and be amazed by.

[@OzDizzer]

Wow that’s pretty awesome! Looks like a huge amount of hours put in but the result is spectacular. I have lathe envy ✌️😁✌️

[@oxtoolco]

You have excellent taste in machines! The width of the bed and ways is impressive. Nicely done. One thing to check is you should see some oil movement in your front gearbox sight glass. Make sure its not blocked. All the best, Tom

oxtoolco thank you uncle Tom. I already remove all the old oil. Gave the housing really good clean and fill up new oil. Also cleaned up the ways, holes for oil goin through the main bearings.

[@rotory2002]

I found a 1921 Hendey gearhead for 700 bucks in Clifton Park NY and I restored it. It looked like it was never used ! The guy that owned it says its been sitting in his Motor machine shop for 45 years and not even hooked up :)

By restoring these beautiful old machines, you make the world a better place! These machines just have so much character, and LIFE, left in them. You have restored their soul..

Took me 4 months to restore a 1984 4runner (from the ground up without new paint), I spent everyday to work on it during my 2 and a half summer vacation months. If I leave it for 3 years I may not be able to find all nuts and bolts. You did great on this lathe, always love old stuff.

2:11 Lmao. You made it look like a rat looking for leftovers. Love what you did with the lathe. I did it before and it was very rewarding. Thanks.

[@hedning003]

question : how much did you pay for the lathe and how much did you spend on the repairs?

[@Monuments_to_Good_Intentions]

hedning003 i have picked up similar lathes for $200. Seen some sell much higher. Bearing, paint and bushings in a restore can add up to about $500. Really not bad for a nice lathe. Hardest part is moving them.

[@jatag100]

[@takisbakalis]

Great work! Those timelapses make it look easy which is not. It seems that you don't mind spinning you chuck without tightening it up, everybody suggests otherwise. But I haven't ever seen untightened jaws fly away from a machine. Who knows. But don't wanna witness it either though..

yeah. thank you!

Congratulations on a very well done job. Lovely to see such a well made old machine restored to her former glory.

[@rfnoise]

Try changing the chuck jaws into the other slots and recheck runout, you may get it better!

[@janvanruth3485]

never seen a lathe before have you?

[@rfnoise]

@@janvanruth3485 Well, I have an Atlas 12x36 and a 7x18 minilathe, so I know how to squeeze the most out of a bad 3 jaw chuck. There is a whole science behind that, which most people do not understand, and go straight to regrinding the jaws....before finding out the real cause of runout.

[@rfnoise]

@Chris You are right they have to be in the right order, but you have 3 choices of which slot to start with. Quality chucks will be labeled as to which slot goes with which jaw for best results. If he is getting 5 thou TIR, I think it is worth trying the other 2 positions. It might get it within 3 thou.

[@janvanruth3485]

rfnoise bullshit Nr. One jaw goes in slot Nr. One. No alternative. The keyhole might be marked but that is it.

[@branimirmesin566]

Not how its works buddy. Sometimes jaws are even diferent dimensions to prevent that. I have 3 jaw and 4 jaw emco scroll chucks. Also worked on large (11kw) lathes with 250-300 mm chucks none can switch jaws between slots they have to go in order they are marked
