Rule of thumb for less experienced watchers: Any hole being drilled that's bigger than 1/2" diameter tends to do better with pilot hole first to clear the web on the bigger drill bit. Everyone including me tries to skip that pilot hole, almost everyone ends up regretting that short cut in the end 😁.

When drilling for grease fittings in new work. Did you ever think of drilling only a shallow hole to tap for the zirc then a smaller diameter hole all the way in to reduce the possibility of a tear out because of the normal size hole. Not needed in 99% of jobs. It's just a thought.

You should wait until ask the welding is done to bore it. If you don't you run the risk of things pulling and moving after you finished machining. And thing always move when they are welded.

Idea. Drill a precision hole in a scrap of 3/4" plate. Drill and tap from the side a fine thread hole. Cut the piece in half across the precision hole. Machine a clearance notch where the threaded hole is in the bore for clearance. now with a bolt and a jumbo nut in the threaded hole. So you have a mechanical stop for setting boring bar tools to the same height as you move them between holes . Would it work with a special micrometer head

On a line boring job like this, do you charge by the hour, by the hole? Or bid it… just curious cuz I’m sure those cutters aren’t cheap and also do you get a long lifetime out of the cutters? Thanks in advance I have 0 experience with line boring… cool videos ! I envy your machinery and skill in a positive way!
@OFW2 жыл бұрын
Typically I charge everything by the hour. Some smaller bores I might do a flat rate. The cutters usually last a while. Until you hit a hard spot and they break. As an example on this job I went through 6 cutters. The last 2 bores used one and the first bore took 2.

So I’m just learning how to do line boring and I was wondering can you generally take bigger cuts at a slower speed? The guy that’s teaching me does things kinda different from guys I’ve seen on KZbin. Like using a punch and a hammer to advance the bit when taking cuts 😂 but it seems like he uses the boring machine at a higher speed but if he takes too much of a cut the machine starts shaking and screaming lol in the video the machine is running really smooth how you do it.
@northmanlogging27692 жыл бұрын
the screaming is called Chatter, to stop it generally you either need a more rigid set up i.e. bigger tooling, or you slow the spindle down and increase feed rate, sometimes a lighter depth of cut can help, but not often. a higher feed rate can also lead to more deflection and less accuracy. As for taking bigger cuts, it has everything to do with power and rigidity. also anyone that uses a hammer to adjust for tight tolerance work needs to be kicked in the teeth, once for every time they smack a precision instrument. and... higher speeds means more heat and wearing out tools faster, (the "bits") leading to less accuracy and more work. Former machinist of like 25 years... its folks like your "teacher" that drove me into the woods.
@Rych_erd2 жыл бұрын
@@northmanlogging2769 yeah man the way I’ve seen other guys do it is a lot more technical than what this hill billy is showing me. I definitely want to do it the right way which is why I’m asking. I’ve been a heavy equipment mechanic for 9 year and a field mechanic for 3 of those. Just training to take over the welding position for the place I work. I just don’t want to look like a fool when I start line boring out in the field lol
@OFW2 жыл бұрын
Well I definitely wouldn’t suggest the hammer and punch method. The key to a smooth running setup is run the biggest diameter bar you can, place your bearings as close as possible with enough room to adjust the tool etc…, make sure your cutting tool is sharp and not dull or broken. After all that you can play with depth of cut and feed rates. If you look closely at my bar in the video you can see I have deflection which means my cut is too deep or my feed is too fast. In my situation it didn’t matter because the last two cuts I made were light and accurate.
