Metal Lathe - Part 15: Tailstock Completion

[@spudmcgee7163]

Said it before, and I'll say it again _ Love your series on making your own Gingery style lathe (foils and all)! Learning so much about what to do (even what not to do, yep even your "mistakes" are valuable -) when finally going for my own! Thanks Cressel!

[@Makercise]

Rick J. it doesn't get old. thanks for the feedback.

[@chrisbridges1328]

Your yelp of happiness when the taper popped out like it was supposed too was awesome...I enjoy seeing other people's success. If the one I build is even half as nice as yours, I'll be making the same noises

[@machiningbasics1729]

Weather your an engineer by trade or not you have great levels of ingenuity . Is I've said befor this is a great educational source and proves with ingenuity and patience you Can do anything.

[@dberry99]

Impressive work with the tools you have. I never really thought about how simple a lathe is.

[@ericochoa6316]

I like your hard work,but what make more beautiful job,is your nice attitude.

[@aarondcmedia9585]

Hey mate just wanted to say this is such an outstanding series of videos. I am watching them a second time now that my own lathe plans are coming to fruition and it's freaky to see questions I have been pondering are answered in this series (via Gingery info and your own solutions to issues). Simply outstanding. Thank you,

[@MercuriusBristophiles]

great job , the best I have seen for a recycler

[@HermanOtto-wr2nn]

oglądam kolegi pomysły z wielka pasją takich ludzi w obecnych czasach brakuje pozdrawiam

[@paulduffey7975]

Impressed. Like the way you made the groove. Thank you.

[@WoodByWright]

Very cool man! loving this project!

[@ManCrafting]

Another great video. This has been fun and educational. Great build.

[@runliftthrow217]

I wish I had rewatched this for 7:29 - I just cut that slot as described in the book by hand, with a hacksaw. Slow going! Your way is much faster and more accurate.

[@MadeinPolandChannel]

Great job! Waiting for next part! :)

[@Geeksmithing]

Huzzah! Teamwork for the win! :D Congrats on finishing this beast! :D

[@maikeydii]

Nice to see the improved crucible handle - the former one was an accident waiting to happen :P

[@Makercise]

Yep, got lots of feedback on the lifting tongs being awkward and accident prone. I take constructive feedback well. Much easier and much safer, now. :)

[@BlackBeardProjects]

Haha! :'D 14:56 The sound of success

[@robmckennie4203]

You gotta stop with the set screws on round surfaces before you give me an aneurysm, a good way to protect the shaft is by filing or grinding a flat where the set screw goes, that way the raised burr doesn't interfere with the bore. You also get more holding torque if you do it this way

[@Makercise]

Rob Mckennie haha. I am trying to ween myself off. I assume you mean the set screws on the bearing? I think I am pretty much filing or grinding flats elsewhere. let me know if I'm missing on. I'd hate to cause a medical emergency. Protect your inner maker.

[@robmckennie4203]

Makercise the particular one in this video was the tailstock handle

[@jonnoMoto]

Rob Mckennie I'm wondering if a roll/taper pin would be more appropriate

[@robmckennie4203]

jonnoMoto​ quite possibly, but then you're getting up the scale of how difficult it would be to execute, especially a taper pin, but you can do even better than that. For instance, I believe the various feed handles on my lathe are keyed on to their respective shafts. Set screws are dead simple, and reasonably effective when tightened onto a flat

[@Makercise]

Rob Mckennie the temporary vise grip would be the big problem for buggering the tailstock feed screw shaft. there's a flat on the feed screw shaft now. not sure when I did it, but apparently it was off camera. rest easy. thanks for keeping me honest. ;)

[@Micscience]

Good job buddy it looks real good and I am sure you are proud of your creation. I would suggest cutting off some of the drill chuck thread to give you more space between centers. That drill chuck has a really long thread. Anyways good luck and take care.

Parabéns, seu torno esta cada dia melhor.

[@willemkossen]

Sweet progress!

[@ronwhittaker6317]

7:02 thought occurred to me a cut to length ground to taper fluted peace of highspeed would've been the salted soup here.

[@chadlooman6720]

I have been following this project since the beginning. You have done a great job. Would you be able to share the stl file for the ball handles?

[@KyHighlander59]

Do you plan on building the shaper in the Gingery books? That is the one piece I would love to have is a shaper.

[@Makercise]

KyHighlander59 starting the shaper is one of my patreon goals. I think I am a bit over half way there. there are some things I need to do to the lathe before getting too carried away with the shaper. I hope to build the shaper and mill.

[@Steve_Just_Steve]

Very nice casting work! Seems like an awful lot of work when a small used metal lathe can be had for a couple hundred bucks, but I guess you'll be able to say that you made it. Did you do a video on your kiln conversion? That's pretty cool.

[@Makercise]

Steve just Steve yes. I Instagramed a picture of the harbor freight $550 lathe. this project isn't to get a lathe for cheap. it is an opportunity to learn techniques. thanks for watching. also I have a video on the kiln controller, DIY Raspberry Pi Temperature Control for Kiln Foundry.

[@sergiosantana1370]

Excellent against tip very good job

[@paulosampaio6709]

oi gosto dos videos que voçs postam são bem detalhado valeu eu aprendo muito valeu

[@Sergiotunes1976]

LEGAL.......ESTA BEM DE FERRAMENTAS.....PARABÉNS...

[@leoworrall9449]

Have you considered using ZA12 rather than scrap metal for your future projects ? It doesn't need de-gassing and has similar properties to cast iron.

[@Makercise]

Leo Worrall I haven't. I am not familiar with it. Do you recommend a source?

[@leoworrall9449]

sorry, late reply. I'm in singapore so can really recommend anywhere in the US. On a side note, I'm loving your videos. definitely the best gingery build guide I've see so far. really excited to see the shaper and mill

[@cristianvallesi2805]

How much power and how many revolutions does the engine have?

[@Makercise]

at that time 1/4HP @ 1746rpm but the step pulleys allow adjusting the speed down

[@cristianvallesi2805]

@@Makercise thakyou....

[@jvmiller1995]

Dude you NEVER grind aluminum on a stone wheel. Use a belt sander/ grinder or disk sander. A stone wheel can load up with aluminum then when you come back and grind steel it can heat up and explode. Even if you redress the wheel it can load up deep in the pores of the wheel and end in a bad day. very cool you cast that whole thing though you should be very proud. Sorry if I sound like the safety police yelling for not wearing safety glasses or using a guard or something obvious it's just most people do not no better until its to late. great job on the build.

[@ARIFINLATHE]

Your idea top

[@HermanOtto-wr2nn]

chociaż mam 63 lata ale od Ciebie pomysłów uczę się hahaha jesteś niezmiernie pomysłowy

[@Makercise]

Dzięki za oglądanie

[@vaderdudenator1]

Why pot metal and not more Al?

[@will11m]

The weird effect at 3:30 wigs me out.

[@Makercise]

will11m I got a little too aggressive with the speed up. the effect is just trying to maintain the pitch. i dont think ill replicate the effect in future videos. thanks for the feedback cheers.

[@dalbinpaulino1362]

Uuuuuu yeah is awesome 😎😎😎

[@2testtest2]

This is really starting to look like a lathe now (as opposed to a bunch of random cast aluminum parts jury rigged to work in a lathe lake fashion).

[@carlosarteaga5691]

hola amigo....me llamo carlos arteaga, soy de Peru, y muy impresionante la fabricacion del tornito, es un buen trabajo de ingenieria. Mi tornito es de fierro y todas piezas fueron fabricados uno por uno, hasta los volantes o timones. Deseo compartir contigo esta experiencia en fabricar nuestros tornos mecanicos......Saludos y un fuerte abrazo a la distancia

[@Makercise]

Hola carlos Es muy agradable oír hablar de personas de todo el mundo que trabajan para construir máquinas herramientas desde cero. Gracias por tu historia. Saludos

[@minhdao2432]

I like this video

[@HUYNHLAMBMVL2010]

Tôi khâm phục bạn, Video thật ích lợi // Cám ơn

[@Makercise]

Cảm ơn bạn đã xem video của tôi và để lại nhận xét.

[@taylor5263]

it might save you a bit of hassle in future by adding a handle to the tail stock lock instead of having to grab a wrench each time :)

[@Makercise]

DIY Jet Engine Guy good idea. probably should do one for both the ram lock and the tailstock base lock.

[@Sergiotunes1976]

UUUAAAUUU...VOCÊ EM FERRAMENTAS PARA TUDO....rsrsrsrsrsrsrsrs

[@bkailua1224]

Interesting project. But get rid of the long sleeves. Very dangerous around spinning parts.

[@polizzottogarage]

ok grande numero uno ciao

[@edgeeffect]

"Okay Mr Anderson" :) :) :)

[@saxon215]

Okay Mr Anderson?

[@Makercise]

Spark Gap lol. doing home school since cherokee county had a snow day. I told him to call me Mr Anderson while we were doing school. Guess he was still on alert. :)

[@saxon215]

Sounds like a good kid, I envy you're weather it's going to hit close to 40 degrees Celsius today. Keep up the good work

[@numuzmar]

I am really amazed that you actually done morse taper with that, good work! and when I saw your band saw (lol is it correct spelling?) and think maybe you should try this challenge kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqeThX6batemedkm35s

[@kurtis2097]

You’re supposed to be using hand tool

[@ClownWhisper]

you need to build the lathe parts on a lathe

[@matalay_leather]

süperrr

[@مؤيدمكي-ق2ث]

احسنت ممتاز جدا فنان

[@Makercise]

شكرا لك يا صديق

[@Sergiotunes1976]

EU VI FERRAMENTAS DA CHINA COM VOCÊ...kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[@Imwright720]

These videos are very old so it’s clearly to late to comment but it looks like a lot of work for a lathe which won’t end up being very accurate. Hard to adjust and being off even slightly will cause parts to be off. Small parts won’t suffer much but as they get bigger they will. In the end I hope it turns out better than I’m seeing.

[@Makercise]

sub thou accuracy. Lot has changed. Mostly my skill set.
