thoroughly enjoyed. would watch again. thanks Stefan.

[@michaelmiller5566]

I liked it so I copied it, like the Chinese. This made me burst out in laughter

[@christianullrich2923]

How to mount parts on magnetic chuck: 1. Place part on magnetic chuck. 2. Turn on lathe. 3. Turn off lathe. 4. Look for new dent in shop wall, retrieve part from vicinity. 5. Repeat until no additional dents appear.

[@ChrisB257]

Lovely job Stefan -- as always great to watch you at work. There is always I think big satisfaction making your own tools.

[@bulletproofpepper2]

Your not cheap, your smart and frugal.

[@tabaks]

sam yeates, whose?

[@larrysperling8801]

nice job stefan, i liked your trick for cleaning centers. i learned something today .thanks

[@tonyburndred9828]

Great video Stefan, I do enjoy watching a craftsman at work, it's so satisfying to see the old shaper being used, the amount of shapers that was scrapped or just stood in the corner of workshops, gathering dust and rust, I think they are great. Keep healthy looking forward to the next video.

[@mrayco]

Hi Stephan as always very neat job I enjoyed a lot. Thank for sharing

[@EddieTheGrouch]

Nice work as usual and nicely timed as I just got some gear cutters. I've yet to turn between centers so now is a good time to try it. A hobby machinist/fabricator should never apologize or have to justify making their own stuff! I mean, isn't that the whole point of the hobby??

[@lbcustomknives]

Brother if you ever get stuck and need something heat treating and cryogenic treatment just let me no more than happy to do it for you.

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+lbcustomknives Thank you! Might get back to that If I make a knife one day! :)

[@bcbloc02]

For making arbors with 0 runout I like to use a lathe tool in the vise and let the arbor be held in its actual mill holder, it works well. You made a nice tool here. I enjoy gear and spline cutting myself so look forward to that. :-)

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+bcbloc02 Thank you! Yeah, I have seen that done, machining the arbor on the machine, but for an unknown reason I dont like that method very much - But it makes sense and will give a perfect result as you say. For some reason I enjoy all kind of rotary table/dividing work as well as singlepoint threading on the lathe very much :D

[@karlramberg]

The chuck on the lathe is not key less ;-p

[@tabaks]

karl ramberg, why are you wasting time here, you should be on a Comedy Central tour.

[@pauljones3866]

This was very interesting and useful. Thank you for taking the time to show us your project. What is the model number of the Noga deburring insert? The very small size insert with a rounded tip is looks very handy for deburring small parts. Regards, Paul

[@infoanorexic]

And I'm over here, making an attempt to turn a similar chunk of steel to a #5 taper. Haven't fully decided what the other end is going to be machined for. If I Bozo the taper, I'll just set it all straight again and make a dead center to use in the three jaw. If the taper goes well, a shell mill will probably go on the other end. It's good to have contingency plans for something if the more complicated part of the job doesn't go well.

[@JohnRysdyk]

I have the same keyless chuck, when I use it with drills over 12.5 mm (.5"). Don't ask why. It locks like you say. I just back off the drill with slip lock pliers, marks the drill shank a bit but out they come. Next time I get drills over half an inch though I'll get tapered ones. Learning a lot thanks

[@robertklein1316]

Hi Stefan, Thanks for the build, especially the keyhole photography, which is now used here in the Carolinas by the toilette Polizei. The overhead shot were interesting also, I envisioned that the oil can was stuck on a wall vertically till I realized it was resting the cross-slide. You deserve an extra bowl of rice for this one

[@charleskish8606]

Thank you again Stefan. Your pride in your workmanship is truly a badge and sure to inspire those that follow you.

[@hachinger7523]

This Moment, if you are german, watch a german KZbinr, He translate to english and you have to translate it back to english

[@MakinSumthinFromNuthin]

Excellent part, how much travel did your compound have? My lathe comes up short on compound travel 😂

[@TheElderlyBiker]

FYI, It's lent me, not borrowed me :) Another fine video

[@StefanGotteswinter]

Sounds more like it should, thanks :D

[@pbgd3]

Stefan Gotteswinter don't feel bad borrowed me is a regional way of referring to it in some parts of the states.

[@linzero3664]

why not it's borrowed from (I borrowed it)@@pbgd3

[@robgerrits4097]

It is always nicer to make your own tools and again a good job, thanks for sharing.

[@bobshepherd9353]

totally agree, making your own is so much more fun than waiting for the postman!

[@AmateurRedneckWorkshop]

Very nice, I always like the tools I make for myself better than the purchased ones.

[@jackjr473]

Never heard the phrase buying is loosing before. If you can make it why not.

dear stefan try to cut the diameter of 22 mm on the milling mashine .clamp the cuting tool on a vise and go up the table. i think you have zero on the dial

[@steveb936]

Nice work, I need to make one for face mill, whats the angine I have to set Thanks

[@ClownWhisper]

I had always thought that they machine that you had had R8 taper? Why did I think that

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Very nicely done, I like it. I am with you on the buying thing.

[@zomie1]

I usually put a shoulder on my center in the lathe chuck so that I don't risk it moving back.

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+zomie1 Thats usually a good idea ;)

[@DanuAl-FLY]

Great work Stefan! How to change shaft/arbor at Rohm mandrel? I have a chuck Rohm ( 3-16mm ) that I destroyed it because i did not remove the arbor MT. Any ideas? Thanks!

[@gerryforce6344]

Hallo Stefan. Toller Kanal. ABER schade dass du deine Videos nicht auch auf Dt. kommentierst. In Fb schreibst du ja auch in dem Gruppen auf dt. 😋😉

[@manr.9106]

Hey Stefan, von Bayer zu Bayer, wos is da mit dem Glas deiner Mahr Messuhr passiert? Ich genieße deine Videos hier in Australien. Ein ausgewanderter Werkzeugmechaniker und KuFo Spritzgusstechnik 😉

[@lbcustomknives]

I was thinking when you remove the piece from the mag chuck before you move if you were to draw around it with a fine sharpie for what you awe doing there might miss out using the indicator again just a though buddy

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+lbcustomknives Good idea! In fact I do that from time to time, great eyeball-help. Thanks for droping by!

[@DanG-ug1ed]

Next video...slot your angle plate.

[@Dans-hobbies]

Great job on the close up shot Stefan.

[@StefanGotteswinter]

[@daljeetsinghsokhey605]

How about making a bush an use the old arbor

[@outsidescrewball]

Great video/build/discussion/instruction!!

[@kennethkustren9381]

Ohhh !!! Wow ... Nice plan... KENNEK-built Stefan-inspired copper jaws for my Vice Grip® plierz. Right ??? That gray putty looks like mastic... eternity-durable, water-resistant, sealable, paintable, and cheap-ish !!

[@DavidLindes]

33:50 - hey, even tripods need love. ;)

[@garyc5483]

Excellent project thanks for sharing Stefan. I use a similar cleaner called "Cyberclean" in the UK its actually made for computer engineers but is good for cleaning in the workshop. Your English is excellent but I hope you do not mind me pointing out that, you borrowed ( can I borrow ?) the cutter from your friend and your friend lent (will you lend me ?) the cutter to you. regards from the UK.

[@davidrule1335]

12:20 Shaft collars are good for dogs.

[@armdaMan]

Yes. Definitely interesting and engrossing as well, STEFAN Like this project every bit. Thanks for the recording and the Sharing. Nothing to beat Your OWN Fabrication - especially Yours with its inherent accuracy and precision. This can Never be Bought !! May U always be busy doing this kind of stuff. Thanks a zillion. aRM

[@kostasstamatakos1230]

Hi Stefan. How do set the 30 degree angle on the compound in order to true up the center, held in the 3 jaw chuck? Trigonometry, indicating, or some other way? Buying means loosing... awesome quote Stefan...

[@pierresgarage2687]

Practical trick on how to turn the compound with a cordless drill , next best thing is a taper attachment, unfortunately not always available, nicely executed... ;)

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+pierre beaudry I dream about building my own taper attachement, Pierre :D Like ThisOldTony...

[@pierresgarage2687]

This will be a very interesting series to follow... ;)

[@theshed8802]

Very nice little project. Yes you can buy on eBay, but it is often quicker to do it in house.I always enjoy seeing what you do with your shaper, my shaper is one of my favourite machines, I am always looking for an excuse to use it. thanks for another great video. Greg

[@marcschlotzhauer535]

Hi Stefan, when you cut the keyway on the shaper you did an intial cut in the center and two cuts offset by 0,5mm. If you wound have offset the cutting tool by 0,5mm BEFORE the first cut, you only have to offset it once by 1mm. Everything would still be cented but you only need to make two cuts. Btw. nice and precise videos. Keep going!

[@mrcpu9999]

I've watched this a couple times, and one question. Why match to another more taper holder initially instead of setting up with the specs from a book, then tweak the fit in your mill? Doesn't that cut out a layer of having to trust somebody else's work? Anyway, enjoyed it, I always learn something.

[@CNCJoeFromRomeo]

I am always impressed that you have such a good understanding of the English words for machining. I had a very tough time finding the German words for technical items... and then they are generally quite long words. Ausgeseichnet arbeit - einmal. Stefan - Vielen dank!

[@EmmaRitson]

nice arbour! glad to come home to youtube and great project videos like this one! thanks for taking the time to make it.

[@Orcinus24x5]

Dammit, now I wanna buy a magnetic chuck for my 7x12 mini lathe.

[@artmckay6704]

Thank you Stefan! I think it's safe to say that we ALL love your videos and we miss them when you're taking a break! Please keep the videos coming! Thanks again! :)

[@juanrivero8]

That was truly educational. I can turn between centers and do so when I can. Point is, if you have to reverse the part you *must* turn between centers. Still fun to watch it done The power feed for the compound (thank you Tony/Stefan) is just priceless. Ah, I have just figured out a way to do it on my Taig. But the best part was cutting the keyway on the shaper. You have just exercised my mind for 20 minutes or so and I can't think of a better way to center the piece. And I must go to Michael's ( a craft store) and see if they have that gummy eraser.

[@armdaMan]

Most enjoyable and informative. Gives us confidence to tackle a similar project Thanks again for showing and sharing All the best aRM

[@stephenbehan1958]

You can also use a watchmaker's material called Rodico -19th century watchmakers used bread dough. Great Videos Stefan

[@marceltimmers1290]

Hi mate. Nice as always. Hee, when centering on the magnetic chuck, why not use a piece of square with a small ball-bearing at the end? you could hold it in the tool holder, and just push the project to the centre. I would think that you could even centre square or irregular items with this method, right?

[@lensman5762]

The easy way would have been to use the TIG to build some metal around the 16mm shank and then machine it down to 22 mm. Being a lazy ass that is what I would have done. Great skill and precision as usual.

[@barrycass2820]

this vice you have is very stylish. i would like to know what kind you have there .THANK YOU .

[@gravyblue]

Lent you. Borrow from, lend to.

[@arnljotseem8794]

I think it is great that you make your own tools. I have watched all your tool making videos, and I did not even contemplate to make make my own holders and tools until I watched your "fearless" approach to tooling. Love it, and very interesting as always.

[@junglejammer1]

Another great one. I always enjoy your videos. That was an interesting observation on the keyless chucks. I've jammed them a few times, I think, because I didn't reverse the spindle. I backed the tap out by hand.

[@JohnBare747]

Very nice practical project. Thanks for the video I think a tool that you make yourself is not only cheaper but much more satisfying.

[@risfutile]

Hey Stefan, I really like your "I have lathe, I can make it myself instead of buying it" mentality! Will you be attending the BarZ bash?

[@roleic7246]

Thanks for the nice video. After having seen you make a nice tool post grinder I would have loved to see it in action here....:-) Maybe there will be future opportunities for that.

[@charruauno386]

Your work it is always really inspiring, because making your own tools in my case and country it is the only way. (Uruguay) Thank you Tony for the tip on the tool for the top slide, very practical. Thank you both and have a nice day.

[@BickDE]

Nice video Stefan. You can cut some 2MT for me if you like.Thanks for posting. Bob

[@mirceabascuti]

Stefan, did you tried to center your part on the magnetic chuck using a roller (bearing) into your tool holder and run it on the outside of the pat diameter while you spin the chuck?

[@ROBRENZ]

Nice work and video Stefan!

[@07Stylist]

This is the best channel on KZbin by far!!!!!!! Simple to the point and with zero bs and no ads.

[@chrisstephens6673]

Thumbs up on making your own tooling, that way you can get what you actually want not what someone else thinks you want.

[@ryanb1874]

I'd really like to see ya go balls out and make a large, live center, maybe a supporter could send you the right bearings.

[@Thunderbelch]

Great project! What is the order/part number of the Noga deburring tip you used?

[@williamsavory5274]

Thank you for all your sharing of knowledge and excellent instructional videos! I just bought my first machines and will try to make lots of tooling myself thanks to gaining an understanding through you!

[@duobob]

Does that magnetic chuck hold work tight enough to use it on a rotary table on the milling machine for light work?

[@sparkiekosten5902]

Be cheap....we all learn!

[@mystamo]

Hey Stefan. Great video. I was scratching my head for a while trying to figure out how to match my MT2 centre taper. Now to make my tail stock tool holder.

[@nardaoeletronica]

Excellent work.

[@dougbourdo2589]

Good to see the hand file work. Tom didn't do any lately !! Nice tool work Sir.

[@davidcashin9194]

Hi Stefan Another great project and video It's awesome to see such fantastic work and you have another tool you can trust for your collection. Dave

[@Kettletrigger]

Great vid as always, and I learned some new things about keyless chucks too.

[@andri-1148]

what kind of type of steel did you use for making arbor?

[@MegaCountach]

Great stuff! Always learning something new from your videos, thanks

[@RUNCNC]

Why a MT 2 as your mill has a MT4 spindle?

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+xxl1trade Most of my smaller tooling is MT2 as its for my kind of work stiff enough - And I cant cut a MT4 with my lathe as the travel of the compound slide is to short to do so...I have a MT4/MT2 sleeve and a M10 drawbar most of the time in my mill.

[@peterbaynes5804]

Nice work Stefan... it was interesting to see the magnetic chuck in action.

[@Chris-pb3se]

“Buying means losing”. You’re a wise man.

I'm pretty sure this guy is just showing off his magical rear-jaw-actuating vise.

[@StefanGotteswinter]

Fancy, hu? :D

[@glennfelpel9785]

It certainly is quite interesting, thank you for sharing.

[@JohnDriggers]

Stefan - who makes that magnetic chuck?!

[@jaapdekker5983]

I love your Deutsche Gründlichkeit!

[@ClownWhisper]

I never understood why people turn between centers using a chuck. I mean yeah works the same I guess but I've always felt more comfortable working between centers with a faceplate because basically that's what it's made for LOL well among other things but I don't know maybe there's an advantage to this I just never understood the draw

[@StefanGotteswinter]

Because a center that is turned in place runs 100% true.

[@ClownWhisper]

@@StefanGotteswinter oh yeah I understand that it's going to be just as true as if you used a faceplate and a center and it's possibly even a little more convenient.. any time that I am able to take the Chuck out of the equation I tend to do it, I feel like I have so much more room to work. I know it makes no difference to the end result. Great video as always Stefan I have learned so much from you!

[@19693201]

nice job

[@madsighntist14]

Stefan, Great Sharing the various ways to create the Taper, from the first Saw Blade arbors to this one. This is Not a Complaint, Per Se, but the Camera Angle Straight down onto the Lathe was uncomfortable (for Me) I was sort of Dizzy in my head watching it! BUT Thank You, Always! philip who can sometimes be dizzy in the head Anyways!!!

[@StefanGotteswinter]

Haha, yes - Lots of ways to get the same thing done :) Agree on the camera angle on the lathe, I find filming on the lathe quite difficult. But I think I found a better angle that works in future. Also I will show another way of making MT-tapers in an upcoming video ;)

[@CJ_LEGAN]

Nice! Another great video. Thank You! CJ

[@greasinplays]

always a pleasure to watch your work/process Stefan

[@jeffreypfeifer862]

Nice work Stefan! I'll be looking forward to your next phenolic gear cutting video... as I'm going to make up some phenolic gears as well - for my Sheldon lathe!

[@StefanGotteswinter]

+Jeffrey Pfeifer Thank you! The gear-video will be one of the next ones, I got all the video footage shot and on my computer, so I "just" need to edit it ;)

[@andyvan5692]

nice part, but you could have added two flats on the big diameter of the arbor, as a place for a tightening jig, or for an adjustable wrench to loosen/ tighten the cutter holding nut. (extremely important, since as the milling cutter cuts, the nut may vibrate loose, the cutter chatters on the key, and that would be a way of fixing, without taking the assembly from the mill).

[@StefanGotteswinter]

In retrospect I am not sure why I didnt mill two flats onto it, but I think I decided to only tighten it down while beeing in the spindle.

[@manusholm3536]

is there a reason for the od shape of the bolt head?

[@ShevillMathers]

Interesting and neat precision work from the master.☺
