LATHE SLIDEWAY GRINDING RIG . Part 1.

[@inmyshedwithbc.]

Hey Max. To get a soft start to the cut on the shaper old guys would file a chamfer on the edge of the work. Good work.

[@DudleyToolwright]

Really nice camera work and a whole lot of quality editing. Nice work, Max.

[@sky173]

Definitely looking forward to this one. I need to do the same to me old Logan. Thanks for sharing.

[@DudleyToolwright]

This is a really interesting project. The extremes of travel are going to be interesting problems to solve. The twin spindle solution will be fun.

[@jdmccorful]

Love these kind of projects! Enjoy the building blocks. Thanks, looking forward to the continuation.😊

[@Just1GuyMetalworks]

So that's what the linear rails are for 😉. Sounds like an ambitious project. The shaper is kick'n ass! Wouldn't wanna kneel on one of those chips! 🤣 Cheers!

[@redforeman2708]

Another great video Max. Appreciate you sharing. Good to see the old red pencil make a come back! Lol.

[@alandawson2813]

Awesome instalment Max, looking forward to seeing more. Happy Days. From kiwi land.

[@kentuckytrapper780]

Great video max, keep'um coming.

[@butchphillips873]

The tool profile for the shaper worked pretty well at 5mm. cheers, Butch.

[@ElmerJFudd-oi9kj]

It sounds like a well thoughtover plan mate.

Getting pelted with chips makes Max a grumpy bunny. 😂

[@jrd02wilcox]

Great video. Thanks

[@ianmoone2359]

Yep. Definitely looking forward to the continuation of this one Max. Full time in the workshop from next year? Does that mean 3 vids a week from then on? 😜😂😂 I’d be adding a tile fire & a couple big split refrigerated air cons to make it as pleasant as possible in there year round if it’s a full time gig. You’ve got enough roof space & solar panels to run them basically for free.

Larger Leblonds and some Swift lathes used similar bed design. Seemed to work for them.

[@radardoug]

I messed up my rotator cuff repeatedly yanking on the drawbar for my milling machine so now I keep a little single step platform in front of it too!

[@mikewestbrook2319]

Thanks Max, PS ducks nuts is a new one for this Texas boy 😁

[@dcraft1234]

More balls than I would have for sure!

[@ClaireK-v3i]

Hi Max, bit of a personal 10 question mate, in ball park terms what would a milling machine of Olga’s vintage be valued at. $5 ~7500 or 10 plus Thanks

[@butchphillips873]

"From the start of next year I'll be in here full time" Are you going into retirement?

[@davidmasters9793]

Retirement I highly recommend it.

[@johnmcanulty7341]

Add Air Conditioning then: You are all good.

Weird bed design, one would expect a big V wedge on the tool pressure side, instead of this tiny one. And a big way on the other side, that doesn't get much load, not too great design, IMO.

[@alanremington8500]

Chips ahoy !!
