Let's Build A Model Steam Engine: The Tale Of A Difficult Hole.

[@dwaynegardner6292]

"I have to use an old C Clamp like a chump" Hilarious!

[@redoorn]

when i was more naive in the world of machining, it was the machine that impressed me more. it's not the machine that gets my attention so much as the work holding. that's where the machinist earns their chops. IMHO.

[@DavidKutzler]

The three most important things in machining: Rigidity, rigidity and rigidity. Rigidity of holding, rigidity of the part and rigidity of the tool.

[@wayne9518]

In the 80s I worked in a R&D group. We had a model shop attached to us. Both guys were talented but one was way ahead in the thinking Dept. Give him a little time to think about it and he would figure out how to clamp it, what tool he would have to invent. The tools are only as good as the mind and hands wielding them.

[@nicholashacking381]

You can tell what a Bad Person I am from this: I'd have measured the mid-point on the base, between the two sides, scribed a line, taken the mid-point of the line, made my punch mark, drilled from the bottom and then, when the hole wasn't in quite the right place, enlarged it until it would admit the rod. Job done. This is why no-one *ever has* or *ever will* pay me to be a machinist! Thank Heaven for the day-job.

About 40 years ago one of my engineering courses was Fortran programming. We has a visiting lecturer from America. I made sure that one of my assignment programs had as variables both Zed and Zee. This lecturer appreciated the banter from the top end of the class.

[@johnmcclain3887]

I began high school in 71, our federal government bought fifty mainframe computers in the fifties, I believe, put one in a high school in ever state, my high school got the one for Illinois, and I took "Kobal and Fortran" required for our school. I was into electronics already, but that prepared me for digital electronics and I've enjoyed machine work ever since. The "Fortran" comment caught my attention, almost forgot about those years. It's really good to see another generation enjoying engine building.

[@hgbugalou]

You rock for showing your mistakes. It happens with any project and dealing with them can teach you a lot in a way you don't forget.

[@taranson3057]

I am a newbie, green as green can be, and I absorb information like a wet sponge and I have to admit that I have learned more from watching your channel than what I have from any other machinist channel on KZbin. I watch and re-watch the videos on your channel. I wait with eager anticipation for your new videos. 🤪

[@johnmcclain3887]

I was a newbie to this in the early seventies, done it ever since, on the side, primary since the nineties, along with welding and general mechanic, I follow many threads such as this, precisely because "newbies" often have problems I've forgotten about, and have "new ideas" that some of us never thought of. I worked avionics twenty years in the marines, so my machine work is influenced by that, I love motorcycles, and have wrenched all my life, and youtube has provided us a classroom that can't be bought. I learned an awful lot from "old hands" but at the same time, "never saw this corner before" perspective can even teach an old dog new tricks. I've had a few fellow machinists of the female persuasion in my life, and they often bring a perspective men don't have. I also get great insight from reading all the comments.

[@ThomasShatter]

"The Tale Of A Difficult Hole" I'm quite sure that I've seen that title on some old VHS in my parents house attic. Never knew they're into machining.

RE: The smokey cutting oil issue. Quinn, since your machines are so small, why not install a couple of vented kitchen range hoods over them and just suck up the smoke and blow it outside. I am sure you could get them cheap from restore, or on a pinch new ones can be got for about $100.

i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot my login password. I appreciate any tips you can give me

[@bennydesign]

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you so much for this series. When I was 15 and an involuntary pupil at an English Boarding School I had the privilege to have a great metal work teacher who helped me build .. almost the same steam engine you are building now. It was then when I got first introduced to mills and (Colchester) lathes and all the great (starret) stuff. Thanks for switching on the flux capacitor!

[@johnmcclain3887]

I was about fifteen when I got a semester of "machine shop class" in high school. I didn't get to build an engine, but built some tooling for motorcycle engine work, and I still have the "C" clamp that was our first project we made. That was 1973, my own shop teacher was my life long inspiration. I'm building this engine now, my third or fourth steam engine, I've worked on cars and bikes better than fifty years. I love what I do, sort of retired, but can't quit the shop.

[@steveallen8987]

I know a lot of people rush to the milling machine, delegating the lathe to turning jobs only. Add a rotating vertical slide and the lathe opens up a whole new realm of machining options. First up just check your tail stock cocentricity extend the nose to full travel and bung in a dead centre, bung one in the headstock and touch the points, pop a razor blade between them and any misalignment will be obvious by the way the blade angles. Now you know any misalignment. Now mount a rotating vertical slide with the faceplate facing you. Mount the casting. You can use the trail stock as a reference point to align to any surface or point. I have an mt2 blank fitted with a quick position arm for my dial indicator. Anything aligned to the tail stock is also aligned to the headstock. Bung a centre drill into a collet and start the hole, replace with your drill and you have your hole. You can now mill the end square. If you have a headstock with a taper add your taper mounted dial indicator and you can now rotate your vertical slide to face the headstock, dial it in and you can now perform other milling actions without remounting the casting. For example Stuart castings have crank bearing that split horizontally so you could mill off the tops. I once had a very complex multi casting multi cylinder block that required steam ways, so I purchased tow rifle bore aligning lasers mounted one in tail stock and the other in headstock and after a quick alignment test( not very precise as 1mm beam width give or take. ) I could now position the cylinder block and position it in three dimensions and see not only where a drill bit would enter but also where it would exit. Lathes have lots of other cool features like chucks that can be mounted on the headstock, tail stock, rotating table, vertical slide, dividing head. And swapped around for different operations without touching the work. Hope this may be of interest to you or you viewers. Steve

[@chrisj4570g]

Im totally digging the trick for recutting a center. Id have faced it off (as is tradition) not knowing your nifty trick, wasting material in the process. Very well done.

[@Gottenhimfella]

I often do a variation of that with a piece of flat bar held sideways in the toolholder, pushing (thanks to a V cutout in the end) against the end of a drill to make it work like a boring tool, instead of an orbiting mess, but I never thought of doing what the esteemed machinist on this clip did, and push against the chuck when holding a centre drill. Kudos.

[@Hydrogenblonde]

I've been a machinist for 35 years and I can tell you that non of the characters that I ever worked with were as thorough as you are. Great machining!

[@johnmcclain3887]

I swear, I cut it three times, and it's still too short! I built a similar engine, an Ajax, about fifteen years ago, I note you are following the path I followed, almost exactly. It's a pleasure to watch you finagle your way around the pitfalls and stumbling blocks, to success. Thanks for sharing this!

[@DavidKutzler]

6:04 A very satisfying "click" when hole fixture snaps into place.

[@peterludke7646]

An alternate approach to "stretching" a drill is to silver solder on a length of rod. A simple butt joint usually works. It won't be perfectly concentric, but with the bushing holding the necessary alignment it doesn't need to be. The shank is not usually hardened, so the heat has no adverse affect.

[@allenhunt3070]

Great tip on the off-center hole fix. And, speaking of Sulphur, it will degrade carbide, along with chlorine and chloride (from PM).

[@allenhunt3070]

Great work. When you get a bigger mill, look for a Van Norman 1RQ. With that you could drill from the back of casting.

Some days are like this but in the end you got that hole right and we all know and applaud you. Thanks for taking us on the journey. Nice job.

[@Chris-pb3se]

One of your best videos if you go by entertaining, informative and well shot/edited.

[@Gottenhimfella]

When I used to make extensions to twist drills (when long series drills were out of my financial reach or when I didn't want to wait for a delivery) I would use a shrink fit (slightly undersize hole in the extension shaft, heat the shaft, drop the drill in and let it cool) - just a different way to skin the cat - oops! --saves a bit of time provided you don't want to get the drill back out! It does mean you can use thinner walls, which might have saved your first clamping fixture from the trash! Now I have other choices (low or high temperature silver solder, or three tiny TIG tacks) but another reason to prefer any of these is that in some cases it's hard to drive enough torque through a grub-screw connection (set screw for US), even with thick walls. Great video BTW - you really have a great deal to offer, and a wonderful manner to seal the deal. ON EDIT (after watching to the end) Just a thought: grub (set) screws at 180 degrees make no sense unless they engage with dimples. The best angle between them is 45 or 60 degrees, but 90 is OK.

[@ArtOfGottiKa]

Great. Thank you very much for the inspiration. I don't build a steam engine, but your solutions are wonderfully transferable to other problems ...

[@DavidLindes]

This time, I get it! Thanks! 12:34 - there's a whole book about this phenomenon! _Sway: The Irresistible Pull of Irrational Behavior_ by Ori Brafman and Rom Brafman. 13:56 - I don't know when this started (I know this isn't the first), but I love that you've started overloading that phrase for multiple kinds of tapping. :) 15:08 - You just broke my brain. :-o "Poop has knuckles?" [knuckles = bends, right?] "oh... Uhhhhhhhh......." 17:43 - lest the poop knuckles come out? :-o Yeah, broken. :D 18:44 - yay!! ok, the last 4 minutes will now be forgotten for all time. You know, other than me leaving a record of it for all eternity on a KZbin comment that the Internet will never forget. Ah well. Anyway, good work!

Hey blondi hacks. I'm as new as a newbie can be. I watch a lot of videos but the tip about re centering your center drill was especially helpful for me. Ta.

[@bbumpy4523]

Try your "Blue Goo" in a spray bottle. On stream setting it has enough force to blow most chips out of the flutes of a drill when drilling on the lathe plus forces coolant down in the drilled hole.

[@DonDegidio]

Hi Quinn, Two thumbs up for a job well done. There are no machining mistakes, just a practice run. :-) Stay safe.

[@kevinmurrell9779]

Just managed to catch up with my PM1. I faced the end of the casting, which will need doing anyhow, then marked up and drilled from outside in. Not having enough Z space on the mill I mounted the casting on the lathe and chuck/drill bit in the spindle. Seems to have worked well. I have also made a template (1/4" steel) with the six holes and the centre hole - much easier to do this on the mill with a clever DRO. When the transfer punches arrive, I'll mark out the hole at the end of the casting and then worry about how to mount it for drilling.

[@csimeonides]

Love your presentation, the way you explain what y doing and all your ideas to better the project, the work and the hole well being of everything in the video. Saw you drinking from your cool beverage cup, liked it and ordered one. Thanks for all.

[@garagewizzard]

I don't know if you read the comments, but I think you might have been able to hold a drill in the spindle on your lathe as it's MT4 (MT4 - MT2 adapter even), and mount the part upside down on the cross slide using a pair of packing wedges similar to how you made the drill bushing. You could also adapt your bushing into a rudimentary machinist jack, and then clamp it down using the t-slots. Otherwise, happy fixturing!

[@Tribalwerewolf]

Ah, a wonderful video yet again. Manual machining is always a joy. Keeps one's mind busy... unlike the cncs I run where it allows your mind to wonder. Keep up the good work, always a great joy watching your videos.

[@smellsofbikes]

The sliding bushing is a fantastic idea. I learned to use a credit card rather than a steel rule to find the centerline of roundstock (or quickly determine if the tool in the toolpost was at the right height) as there's no risk of chipping carbide tips. I'm not sure how much accuracy that loses.

[@ronmccabe1169]

Recommendation - From McMaster - Luer lock stainless needle(s) Squeeze Bottles with Luer Lock Connection (I use a 1 oz bottle) Tap Free cutting/tapping fluid (1 gallon has lasted me over 10 years). Tap Free is a water soluble cutting oil, little odor, works well. I suspect most any soluble oil will work ok. Guy Lautard even has a recipe in one of his books to make your own. How do you make a water soluble?, by heating oil with sodium hydroxide (soap?) Q: what is the boiling point of oil? A: ?~400*F?, maybe more. Q: What is the boiling point of water? A: 212*F Q: what is the tempering points of tool steel? A:~400*F light straw, 62Rc, 600*F blue, 56Rc. I keep three bottles around one with TF, one with WWJD-40, one with soap water (for plastics) Now tap free is fairly low viscosity, and will gush out of a 16ga needle. So I take a 27ga needle, insert it into the end of the 16ga needle, and silver braze a big blob where they meet, and cut the 27ga needle off, and clean the hole (another (sharp 27ga needle)). I try to apply it to the top of the flutes (drill press) and let it drain down while I'm drilling. Once the hole is started, dump some into the hole, and keep drilling. In a lathe, I squirt it into the flute holes as much as practical. Really, just a few drops now and then works well. Minimal wastage, minimal cleanup.

Hey everyone- this week’s “amazing idea I have that Quinn obviously didn’t think of” is making a bushing that wraps around to drill from the other side. My mill is too short to do that, and setting that up on the lathe would be a lot more work than what I did. I answered the first person who suggested this, since it wasn’t clear from the video why I didn’t do that. The other hundred people who asked it either get a brief answer or none. Do me a favor and read each other’s comments if you’re genuinely interested in the answer to something (and not just armchair machining), because I do answer questions here, but I won’t answer them 50 times.

How about making a different drill bushing , imagine an upside down U shape that has a machined surface on the legs of the U That is the part that indexes on the reference surface. the space between the legs is just wide enough to fit over the casting. It should allow you to drill from the other side of the casting with no extension needed.

A drill extension can be made by laying the drill and a piece of drill rod in a Piece of angle to align them then SOFT soldering them together. I have drilled drilled a 5 inch letter C hole through stainless using this method ,learned that in about 1964.

[@624Dudley]

Richard, I find myself wondering: why soft solder?

[@nerd1000ify]

Hard solder (more correctly brazing) requires temperatures that may anneal the drill.

[@richardsweet5068]

As a 19 year old I was more than skeptical about it but I was told by an old hand that any attempt to braze or use silver solder would fail. The drill was extended as I said and even the extension and the shank was relieved for chip clearance. It worked perfectly, I still have the drill bit end of it in my old drills box. we used tinman's solder I have not tried it with super unleaded.
