Making a very useful tool for a mini lathe

[@mk6595]

Hardening seems unnecessary here. My shop-made slitting saw arbors are non-hardened mild steel, been using them for years.

[@pauljcampbell2997]

I mean, unless there's a down side, may as well.

[@wizrom3046]

I agree with him, hardening is a total pain to do, causes warp and scale, and just really doesnt help anything here. Hardening is useful for sliding wear surfaces, OR surfaces that need to withstand point loads and crush forces etc (like vice jaws). Since this is just clamping a saw blade the hardening is not needed.

[@pauljcampbell2997]

​@wizrom3046 Fair enough. Thanks for clarifying your reasons for not hardening the arbour. I'm learning something every day! Cheers mate!

[@leerogers6423]

All pretty much pointless. Arbours like this are everyday items often made for a job and used once. A lot of pointless work here even for something that may be used regulafly.

Its so satisfying seeing rusty steel being made beautiful.

[@randombiopod7384]

Beautiful production and informative, thank you for posting!

[@wgm-en2gx]

You took so much care in ensuring that fit would good. However, I have never seen a slitting saw or gear cutter that ran true!

[@hammerland4028]

By the way, me too

Great video, colleague👍👍👍

[@hammerland4028]

Thank you, colleague.

[@philsouster7221]

Well made, but stop leaving the chuck key in the chuck

[@hammerland4028]

I don't see anything dangerous in this.

Esses mini tornos ficam incríveis depois de poucos ajustes

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Very nice work. Very handy tool

[@25409019]

well done, ,man! Brazil.

Go big or go home has left the chat😂😂😂😂 but cool all the same!

[@manaressoknives]

Very interesting video. Wich steel did you use?

[@hammerland4028]

Steel type unknown

[@ThanasisThomas]

Are you still satisfied with this lathe?? Do you use the same motor?? Peace from Greece

[@hammerland4028]

This is a small low-quality lathe, but I don't have another one), the motor is standard, but I plan to replace it

На станке паук?! Человек-паук так же начинал!😃

[@colincrooky]

Hi, why didn’t you harden the shaft after finishing it? Thank you, great video and very informative.

[@hammerland4028]

After hardening, the geometry of the part may change

[@colincrooky]

@@hammerland4028 There is always a reason. Thank you.

[@miguelcastaneda7257]

Well a step b beyond after oil hardening polish...then heat till starts to blue then water quench....gets a fairly good Rockwell

[@evgesh87]

Это мало масла при закалке, скорость охлаждения мала

[@hammerland4028]

Там скорее всего и недогрел немного

[@trialen]

Never seen anybody use their lathe as a furnace before.

[@TadausSchnieders]

What is the method to adjust the compound slide angle. I see you using an alle key.

[@hammerland4028]

There is a video with this modification on the channel

[@ThanasisThomas]

Did you learn to use the lathe alone?

[@hammerland4028]

Yes, I did

Erkenntnis: Nicht jeden Stahl kann man härten. 😅

[@hammerland4028]

The problem is that the grade of this steel is unknown, and my muffle furnace is out of order

[@leaettahyer9175]

Buy a bandsaw bro.

[@baggismtoday]

I use a slitting saw instead of a bandsaw...because I don't have room for a bandsaw.

[@eddietowers5595]

Two words that may be a game changer for you: Band. Saw. It’s this new novel way of cutting steel, my friend. Everyone does boring heat treating videos…oh, but not you.
