Professional heat treater and machinist here. I ALWAYS oversize threaded holes prior to hardening because when you harden steel it expands, thus making the holes smaller. You can look up expansion rates for 4130 or whatever you are working with. The long version of the story is when you heat your annealed or “stress relieved” part, the soft pearlite steel, which is a face centered cubic atomic structure, changes into a austenitic phase, and goes into a body centered cubic atomic structure. You then quench, trapping the carbon atom inside the iron lattice, making it stay in it’s expanded, body centered cutic, martensitic structure and phase, thus making the steel expand on an atomic level. Additionally the oxidized layer of steel after it is heated is thick enough to interfere with fine threads, sou you may need to use a dremel wire wheel to clean off the oxidation or “scale”. I also want to mention that flood coolant makes a huge difference with tool life, so I highly recommend you use it more often despite the mess, smell, and vapors. If you want to truly understand the mechanical properties of steel look up Professor Harshad “Harry” Bhadeshia on his KZbin channel. The man is a compendium of steel knowledge.

@@VanoverMachineAndRepair Our Tool&Die shop would always oversize tap (each tap itself is marked GH3 GH4 GH5 etc. indicating increasingly larger oversized taps for difficult tool steel metals like D-2 , S-7, H-13. that are to be heat treated. Different type heat treating can leave some residue especially inside of threads. Other heat treating in different atmospheres, followed by tempering can shrink or distort internal threads.

I'm a Toolmaker of 42 years and enjoyed your video. I too do in-house heat treating and would suggest a 3 dimensional figure 8 for your quenching so while doing a figure 8 you also raise and lower the part. Also confirm if the oil at an 11 second quench should be pre-heated for 4130 and make sure you allowed your part to reach 1575 by allowing it to soak at that temperature based on it's thickness as per o/a dimension. If there is slight distortion you can skim the mating contact face and relevant diameters IF required with CBN in the lathe even if it's 62rc if you don't have grinding capabillities. Great job and cheers.

You mentioned you were wishing it was more violent with flames when quenching for content purposes, but you actually don't want this. The flames only happen if you don't fully dunk the part in the oil (such as the shank of a knife you are holding not going into the oil). Since you did it properly where you dipped even your pliers into the oil it does not make any flames, which is a good thing! Excellent stuff!

You mentioned that you didn't know if the steel had been stress relieved, but it has been annealed. Stress releasing is when the steel is heated and cooled to specify temperatures and over different lengths of times. Annealing goes further then the stress relief process by allowing it to cool over as long a time as possible. If the steel has been annealed, the stress relief is kinda built into the annealing, so you that's not going to be an issue. The thing to remember is that the moment you start working the steel, you're taking it away from that nice "soft" annealed straight, which means that whether it's been stress relieved or not, you have to do it before hardening the steel.
@VanoverMachineAndRepair22 күн бұрын
OK, that makes some sense. Yeah I was doing a lot of reading online ahead of time and it looks like on dimensional critical parts. People recommended stress relieving multiple times throughout the machining process so what you’re saying makes sense. It also seems like it may not be necessary to relieve in the beginning then, that may be a waste of time. That is if it is annealed. I guess where it may make some senses where the material properties are more vauge

A Maintenance Machinist where I used to work arranged a heat treating set up so he could heat treat parts & tooling he made because the "official" Heat Treat Shop always pushed his work to the bottom of the list so they could get "production" parts out the door. I can't remember the details, but he definitely pre-heated his oil so that "cold" oil wouldn't shock the parts when quenched & tempered. He even had a thermometer in the oil so he knew exactly what its temperature was. I knew him well and know that he wouldn't fool with pre-heating the oil if it didn't improve his results. Perhaps that extra step would help with at least some future jobs?

Just a little suggestion for someone who is looking to save money ordering material, specifically solid steel off cuts. Get into the habit of trepaning versus drilling (mostly on your Lathe(s) whenever possible, to make shop drops instead of chips! That trepaned core you just saved from sweeping chips off the floor, could be just the size and material you need for that next job? Over a period of time, trepanning with different steels and gaining the resulting accumulated sizes waitng on your steel rack, could be EXTRA profit earned! OR even sometimes the profit itself if underbid.

Heat treating is a black hole. Once you get sucked in, its over. Basically every alloy behaves very differently. For some steels like O1 it does make absolutely zero sense to temper them down because its also thoughest when its hard.

Love the work you do. A reason they MAY have made it our of CI is so that it is self lubricating. Steel on CI. You now have steel on steel (I think) and so you will probably need to provide some lubrication to it. Perhaps something dry like graphite powder would work.... Also the tap you used was fine as you were hand tapping and so could stop when you felt resistance. But that type of tap is typically for through holes as it pushes the chip ahead of the tap. A hand tap keeps it in the groove and a machine tap moves it to the back of the tap

You probably going to look back and wonder why you were hesitant, thats another learning experience entirely. Ps. My uncle was real old school, from another world almost. His peers made everything in-house, EVERYTHING! Think Leonard Lee and men like him. North America seemed to loose manufacturing, but I think things are going back the other way. Many new small foundaries today, which used to be very common. With new machines and guys like you, I see a very bright future for North America manufacturing . The part you fabricated was new old stock $7k, I would think you could setup to make a run of XX # and make a profit. But I think it demonstrates this work has a big future especially if 75 years of IC engine production is lacking support.

The workpiece was quite heavy at that stage so the puck helped spread the force over a larger area.

I am surprised you did not cut off a large chunk with a band saw leaving another piece for some other project.

Yeah that’s one approach

You seem to be keeping possible future owners of the machine in mind while you make these parts. That's another reason why i said your like a seasoned machinist. My father was a machinist. Tool and die maker to be exact. He did teach me about that. I see you playing with the part😜. hard not to get creative when hogging off material. lol
@VanoverMachineAndRepairАй бұрын
Yeah indeed. Of everyone respects themselfs and others we move forward as a society. When we keep pushing problems off on the next guy it just creates long term issues. If possible I like to stop those issues so the buck stops with me lol.

Great job on the tapper work (sorry about the pucker factor) Now, i'm back to getting out a Lexus crank bolt, that a VERY nice person somewhere used Loctite, So far we are on a 8' pipe cheater, No luck !

Great job Kyle, that has come out perfectly. A nice bit of awkward machining in those angular clutch dogs too and pretty good for a first attempt ( I don't count the practice runs!)

Yes indeed

A wiser one said, make a wooden model first. You did, 3D model is better.😊

Yes thanks

Why are you reinventing the wheel?! The drive dogs on the clutch are used to protect the gear train from over stress, and the cast iron part is hard by virtue of work hardening(essentially the peening of the surface by percussion loading), so making an ENTIRELY H&T steel alternative is adding NO value to the machine? BTW the component is cast iron, as it requires self(dry) lubrication.to minimise static friction........ Soz, I'm triggered, just like when people scrape lathe beds instead of saddle ways etc.... ie. Just because one can do something, does not mean that one NEEDS to, especially in machine tool rebuilding! Keep safe and well. 👍😮😮

Seriously dude you're going to burn up your bits get some cooling liquid in there ......just saying.......
@VanoverMachineAndRepair22 күн бұрын
It’s no big deal. I re-sharpen large drills almost every time I use them. I don’t have any flood cooling on any of my machines yet one day.
@rairai351722 күн бұрын
@VanoverMachineAndRepair and each time you grind them to sharpen them unless you reharden the material you're just grinding metal together not really drilling , but I guess if you want to buy a lot of tooling it's up to you it's your money .......just saying.......

OK, so I'm going to give you some advice on the many GREAT videos you generate. PLEASE know that this is constructive. Try to avoid the speaking cadence trap that too many speakers fall into. If you listen to yourself you will notice that your speaking cadence has a pattern instead of sounding natural. Typically there will be a point you are making (you and SO MANY others) and you will have a lilt on the last word of the first 2-4 sentences and a natural ending to the last word of the final sentence. Then this rhythm starts again in your next speaking point. Just let the words flow as if you were speaking with a normal conversational tempo. Watch abomb79, Keith Fenner, Keith Rucker and other people with years of experience. You are doing an outstanding job and I am looking for to watching your continued success. Remember, it's better to sound smart then be smart.
