Making Lathe MILLING Attachment

Is milling on a lathe possible?
I decided to convince myself and convert my lathe into a milling machine.
Installation of the attachment does not take more than a few minutes, so quite short. I can mill keyways, make longitudinal holes, or mill small areas.
I think that for a hobbyist it can be a good solution, but if you want to mill frequently, buying a milling machine will be a better option.
The vibration turned out to be a problem in my lathe. If I had a lathe that weighed a ton or more, it wouldn't be noticeable.
In general, I think the experiment was successful and I will use this attachment from time to time.

Like always top quality build! Thanks for posting, this definitely could help someone out that only has a lathe and needs a way to mill stuff, the fact you make most of the part on the lathe it great! Thanks for posting 🙂

[@regsparkes6507]

This is a very timely video. My brother and I were just talking about wishing we had a small milling machine. He does have a lathe. Now it's possible to have both, with this adapter head attachment. Thanks you for the clear instructions.

[@bheckel1]

Somebody get this man a milling machine and microphone. Amazing video. Ingenious work. Thank you I really enjoyed it.

Interesting execution of the desired result. I think your comments say it all. When it comes to engineering, which bench tool work is, then one needs to get the fit-for-purpose tool. But as always, your ingenuity and ability make it compulsory viewing. Thanks.

AWESOME !

All of your diy jigs / tools are always so well engineered. I've been watching you since you were making your own drill powered lathes in a small garage and I thought, wait till this guy builds up his tools / shop and he'll be the #1 diy jigs /tool guy on KZbin. Keep it up brother, we need your ingenuity. God bless

This is a great video, and the work well done, more important in this video, you answering the big question mark for people like me, a very beginner on this field, understanding the unavoidable vibrations due to the complexity of the moving table, again limited on the vertical stroke, and the all design not practical for minute "V" slots etc... Thank you for this.

[@masoodkhan6012]

This is the best video i saw on KZbin 👍

[@thomasdoherty6876]

[@bostedtap8399]

Excellent modification, and very well done. I think the vibration maybe from the carriage slide gib clearence. Thanks for sharing.

[@aaronwood3540]

I think you can mill on a lathe plenty good enough to do the things you do. Sure help you out making slots and key ways. Dam sure better than the way you've been having to do it. Nice job!!

[@davidrichards5594]

[@JEPhotodesign]

1:33 Working the Chuck with a Power Drill...such a great Idea!!! Thanks for the good video...keep on turning...

[@MechanicalRhino]

Very well implemented, Good Job👍👍 Steel tends to vibrate easily, so machine beds are made of cast iron to absorb the vibrations. You could fill the connecting tube with sand that might catch some Vinbration. Or you try to make the construction a bit stiffer with some extra steel.

[@ignilc]

A better solution would be to fill it with concrete. I did that for my drill press and it works much better

[@mughalikram7051]

[@metricstormtrooper]

You're a smart man indeed Mr Made.

[@dziggy3004]

Thanks... digging in to start a similar lathe-milling conversion project... All the recent noise that I'm reading about vibration/chatter with similar solutions is bursting my bubble! I'll be trying to eliminate as many sources as possible in the process. DUNNO! Time will tell!

[@MsSebastianRuiz]

OMG! awesome attachment! thanks for share!

[@larryschweitzer4904]

Nicely done. It allows some milling at angles that would be difficult any other way. The vibration is from the overhang, just inherent in using the carriage that way. If you could get the center of cutting forces closer to the center of the cross slide it would (probably) reduce the vibrations.

This appears to be a well made attachment for your lathe. It seems to be satisfactory for the need you have at the time. I agree that a full milling machine would be nice, but it I more expensive. Well done and thank you for your video. From Salem, Oregon USA

.Congratulations for the video, for the work and especially thank you for the idea. It was really good. Now the last milled ... The machined surface has been practically polished. It was a great show. Congratulations

[@amacf1]

Excellent project. To produce such a video takes skill and time. The clarity of the video and process is excellent. Two observations if I may for viewers watching this video to learn machining operations. 1. Only use a three jaw chuck to hold machined concentric surfaces only! Holding un-machined surfaces ruins the accuracy of the 3 jaw chucks scroll or the back of the jaws scroll. If you have two 3 jaw chucks then paint one a colour for general holding. 2. Welding on a precision machine is not recommended as you can introduce arcing within the precision ball/roller bearings. Having said that you did the right thing in protecting the lathe and had the earth clamp right next to where you are striking the arc. This in no way a criticism as I admire you ingenuity and flair to get the job done. That's why I enjoy your videos. Cheers from down under Amf1

[@pieterbotes8938]

Excellent idea brother. I will definitely try it. Well done.

[@billoxley5315]

Nice job. If you can get your work alot closer to the cross slide,it may improve the vibration issue.

[@skatewithvanz]

Bill Oxley and weld those plates solid it will improve the rigidity aswell also get a collet chuck and you will be able to make sure your endmills dont have runout wich can lead to chatter vibration and shortened tool life

If you are going to do this definitely use some kind of collet chuck to hold the endmill, a 3 jaw chuck is not made for this and probably the cause of a lot of chatter in this setup.
