Hands down, as a new lathe owner, this is my GO-TO channel. As someone who never did anything with a lathe, the education I'm getting is priceless. I can also see that the channel is not just for the beginner, and I look forward to learning from the more advanced videos. I think I'll buy on of the courses as a "thank you" for all of the amazing free content!

noslenpar you can grind aluminum, we do it with our surface grinders, you have to use a special wax that you embed in the wheel and you need to also use the right wheel. it's necessary when doing aluminium cylinder heads

"There's always a moron in every shop who attempts to grind aluminum." Today, I was that moron :( Was excited to use my new Dremel tool to grind a chromed clamp this afternoon to make something else out of it. After I inadvertently and unknowingly ruined the grinding-stone bit, I used the same Dremel bit to round-off the corners of a piece of square, aluminum tubing. Finally realized what I did. Thankfully, tubalcain is here to show me the way. Thanks for your videos!

I used to rebuild J&S Tool Fluidmotion Wheel Dressers so I appreciate your video. Wheel dressing is as you point out a critical part of the process in precision work. I should have swiped one of those dresser gadgets when I worked at J&S. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess ... Now sometimes I use a broken piece of grinder wheel or a carborundum stick. I need to up my game so thanks for sharing some of the holders you have.

I'm glad you repost this video also; I accidentally forgot to watch the first run! Whenever possible I think you should have a grinder room, most of the shops, I had worked at, in the yards always had a separate area for grinding equipment. Most of us with small shop fight for all are space, we got now, as it is and can’t swing that kind of space! I like your tip on covering or creating a barrier so the grit doesn’t travel to machinery ways and slides, nearby! Respect your tools ;{)---

I don't make it a habit to criticize or correct other machinists about the way they do things. Nothing but respect for Mr. Pete. His channel is an invaluable resource for just about anything workshop related and more. That said, I believe he is dead wrong about using a star wheel dresser in the manner shown at 2:45, putting the feet of the tool between the toolrest and the grinding wheel. That could be a disaster. You really don't want anything in that gap. Keep it as small as possible. In a workplace environment the gap needs to be less than 1/8" per OSHA 1926.303(c)(2) so you definitely don't want put the tool in there at work. Just set the feet on top of the toolrest and, in my experience, it works fine.
@chrisstephens667312 жыл бұрын
You might find your wheel dressing less jerky if you tilted the rest downwards slightly (at the wheel side) , so that the diamond is used in the trailing mode, which is the way it generally recommended they be used.

Been a machinist going on a decade no, largely self taught but there are just some things even as what seems as simple as wheel care that is entirely ignored in this world of throwaway inserts.

I've been using pedestal grinders for years and never knew there were so many different (and precise) ways to dress wheels. The only method I knew of was the disc-type dressers. I ran a blanchard grinder before and it used a disc-type dresser too. I suppose if you're grinding something where you need big, precise flats, like a threading tool, it would be nice to have a perfectly flat and true wheel.

I thought I was the only one who thought about dressing the grinding wheels great video . I learned a lot more than I did know thank you .I wish more people would care to take the time to show the younger generation that not every thing is a throwaway just buy a new one . Do you remember the card files that got the junk out of the files instead of just throwing them a way ? When i worked in industrial machine shop in the 80s I could not believe the amount of wast in what they threw out . There idea was go to the tool cage and get a new one .I guess its the old adage time is money and its ok if someone else is buying the tools . Im sorry I shouldent stand on my soap box and criticize the way some peaple think . I hope to see more of your videos in the future and thanks again for the informative video

Thanks much Mr. Pete you always make things so clear.

Keep doing what your doing and if you get a chance talk a look at my video Bridgeport J head VSR and let me know if I have potential.

Thanks for the tips MrPete. I'm not sure if you've done a video or not on these, but Rudy Kouhoupt made a dandy jig that allows you to grind compound angles on lathe tools. Here's a variation of his jig else on youtube someone built. Bench grinder tool rest - part 3 Skip to about 4:20 of his video to see it in action. Here's a link to Rudy's video, which includes a blueprint on the jig smartflix.com/store/video/58/Grinding-Lathe-Tools I built one (although it's much uglier than the one I included the video for.) With the protractor holder, you can align any simple diamond holder at a right angle and do a perfect dressing every time. It's also easy to set perfect angles for grinding lathe tools, which is a boon to beginners and experienced hands as well.

I see the diamond point tool has created the most dust. Is it the fastest dresser, the one that removes the most of the material? Also, what about the carat grading of the diamonds. I suppose the smaller the number it wears off quickly or it has less of the power to remove the material as quick as the higher grade diamond.

That "spark guard" at the top of the wheel is actually a guard to help minimize the colossal damage during a grinding wheel explosion. It stops pieces of the rotating wheel from shooting out and turning you into meatloaf.

Thank God for other craftsmen who have more/different experience! I have only a cheap star wheel dresser from Harder Fate, and hate the dust on everything and my Harley. Question: I also have a three plate HF "diamond" sharpening set (only good for bevel changes & really dull knives). Could I use one of them on my wheels if I build on some type of holder for the 🔧 tool rest?

Would you consider the dressing dust to be cool enough to (try to) collect with a shop-vac while dressing, or is there still a chance of a spark or hot fragment that could ignite crud in the shop-vac? I've always wondered about this and taken the cautious route of just letting the dust fly.
