Metal Spinning a Copper Lampshade

[@DubbleDare-]

These sounds just opened another dimension in my room so I'll like this video from that one

[@robinhardy9690]

[@Live.Vibe.Lasers]

Strange Sounds. Like an Alien Movie :O

[@swagon4545]

Sounds like you having a tantrum

[@herrerocr]

great work!!, what is the thickness you are using?

[@battynz]

1.6mm

[@madsdanielsen3506]

Nice video. Could you pls put on a video of something else spinning?

[@camerahammerwoody9196]

It is a pity that this video was not shot from above as I didn't only want to see it made but also on how it was made.

Why did you not use a stabilizing curl (roller break) on the edge of the blank?

[@FIVE-0-APOCALYPTO]

why do you need one? Its got a long nose taper, its going to buckle regardless, i dont like his technique once he got around the corner, but you dont need to crimp every part you spin, only when you must.

[@scottabrandeberry]

@@FIVE-0-APOCALYPTO , why do you say that the blank is going to "buckle", even with a roller break/edge curl? I ran a manual lathe (mostly 60" swing, but sometimes a 40" or 80" or 110") for five plus years in the eighties, and a breakdown, either done via the roller and a board, or as a separate operation on a dedicated breakdown block, is what keeps the black from buckling (in combination with spinning technique). Yes, you can spin without a breakdown, especially on very small parts, but why wouldn't you want to increase efficiency when a breakdown would do so?

[@FIVE-0-APOCALYPTO]

@@scottabrandeberry a break down is different than a crimp, I meant a crimp. There is no pre break down in this vid, since he started from a blank. Let me read and watch this again.

[@FIVE-0-APOCALYPTO]

@@scottabrandeberry maybe he did start with a crimp? Its hard to tell. My point is, ive been in a lot of shops, i owned my own as well, i spun everything from .030 to 1.00" and people crimp the shit out of everything when most of the time its not needed if they know what they are doing. Is this video itself a pre breakdown for something else? Im starting to think it is. Even so, I don't like how he did it for the last ⅓ of the run. He's got a mild knot on the edge, plus its running uneven, which means he stretchted it in combination with no structural support around the corner. In other words, as soon as he got around the corner, he "played" with it too much instead of setting the corner and then thats when I myself would get aggressive, with the buckle already ironed out and back pass it to the corner and establish some flat and really hog into it from there and lay it down until I hear a light buckle and stop and that would be the end of my break down because now I'm pretty sure thats what this run is. I suspect there will also be a aneal as well but I don't know what the finished part looks like. Regardless, I don't like what he did on the last ⅓ and I know im right about that. Ive been in shops as a new guy and they give me a job with supervision and I set it up, no crimp, knowing the guy supervising is going to say wait you got to crimp it first and thats when the bullshit starts and I say what the hell for? And then spin it down while they stand there with that blank look in their face, they talk shit about me for a few months and after 6 months, they usually concede that im more advanced than they are, when all im trying to do is get the fkn work done, i fucking hate the ego shit that goes on in spinning, im not close to being the best, im just better than average, but on the high end stuff. Your basic low end production type spinners who scoop stretch the fuck out of parts quick for ornamental type work blow my ass out the water, I cant keep up with them but toward the end of my career, I was decent. I mean to just grab a bar of sharpened high speed steele and free hand trim a edge of aluminum just absolutely scared the shit out of me. But over time, I got used to it but I still think its insane. You really got to be paying attention and I believe 100% no matter what, a incident will eventually occur and it does. It just does eventually. I remember a guy instructing me on a job at a new shop with 2 missing fingers and I said to myself, fuck this, I don't like what hes telling me and why should I when the idiot has missing fingers. I didnt stay there long. 2 weeks i think. Fuck spinning, i hate it. Its a cool trade but competition and prices forces it to be a very dangerous trade.

[@daverave2519]

Do you sell online?

[@MiguelTorres-xf4vv]

You going to waste all the grease in one part hehe

[@kurt1618]

Where can I buy one? And how much?

[@bbcisrubbish]

The lathe or lamp shade? The lathe at Axminster Tools Ltd. many thousands.

[@kurt1618]

I meant the shade. Or do you know where I might buy a few. Thanks

[@bbcisrubbish]

Sorry, I don't. May I suggest going to Google and inserting "copper lamp shades" followed by the country you live in?

[@kurt1618]

Thanks I tried nothing comes up that makes sense cost wise. I will try a manufacturer in the U.S. Thanks again

[@battynz]

Hi Kurt, I make and sell these. They are around $300 NZD each without fittings or wiring or bulbs. Freight and duty are extra as I make these in New Zealand.

[@saurabhmalviya5962]

Sir which type of material you used

[@battynz]

This is Copper

[@jordigarcialarrosa5988]

No me impresiona porque soy del mismo oficio......lo que tendria que hacer la persona que ha grabado esto , es gravar al operario y saber el esfuerzo que hay
