[@shawnlund]

The HSS tooling just needs some rake and clearance angles ground into the tool. A bit of side rake and front clearance and it would be cutting that brass beautifully. The lathe is a work of art and your videos are amazing.

[@mattrickard3716]

does it need to be held closer to the post? I assume that if it is sticking out too far it would have more leverage over the post and introduce chattering that way, particularly if the post itself isn't super rigid.

[@user-qy9rg3nt2l]

@@mattrickard3716 With brass, the stickout is fine since it's so easy to machine. Shawn is correct though, this HSS is basically a blank with no relief at all. May as well put a flathead screwdriver in the tool holder. Just 2 minutes on a grinding wheel would have this turning metal like a dream.

[@someotherdude]

I'm sorry I'm seeing this 2 years later. I'd say the chatter at 20:01 is happening because your spindle is unsupported close to the chuck. This unsupported distance works like a lever on the headstock, which is wood and therefore is quite flexible. This lathe can be fixed, and overall it is wonderful to see and to watch you make it.

[@oldfarthacks]

A lovely project. I do agree with Dude, the chuck is too far out from your headstock bearing. Rigidity is key in a lathe and that space allows for deflection. So your lovely gold nuts need to be on the backside of the headstock and the bearing needs to be enlarged so that the collet needs to be mostly inside that bearning. This would also then allow you to run a tube for the spindle, allowing for through parts in the headstock. So with all that said, I love the build. It's interesting to watch your thought processes.

I got the biggest compliment ever a couple of weeks ago. I posted a video of some hand screw clamps I made and someone said they thought you had made them. It felt really good.

[@FreeOfFantasy]

the 4.4 and 4.8 represents steel properties. The first number represents tensile strength in 100N/mm^2, 400N/mm^2 in your case. The first and the second number multiplied gives you the yield limit in 10N/mm^2, in your case 4*4*10N/mm^2 or 160N/mm^2 and 4*8*10N/mm^2 or 320N/mm^2. Usual grades are 6.6, 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9. 4.4 is really soft.

[@Joseu124]

Or you could say the second number is the yield limit in 10% of the tensile strenght. In engineering class you get told to use only 8.8 or higher, but to be careful with 10.9 and 12.9, because they get brittle very easy due to hydrogen embrittlement. (aka don't use them where it is damp/outdoors without protection)

[@minihak]

@@Joseu124 also DONT overtighten a 12.9 bolt even just a tiny bit! speaking of experience:)

[@petermarsh4993]

Dear Uri, the lovely brass nuts you put on the headstock are called “acorn nuts” for obvious reasons. Magnificent work. The chattering when using your cutting tool is that the entire width is rubbing on your material. If you grind some side relief, ie right side of your cutting edge, the cutting will become smoother and from one point, the front left corner of your cutter. I can’t see from my camera view but the same problem and solution may be happening in the vertical plane. Cheers.

or rather it refers to the quality of the steel the bolt is made of. Higher is better and a normal high quality bolt like the ones used in construction is 8.8.

[@theafro]

Yes, 4.6 means it's made of a soft ish grade of cheese. 4.8 is marginally harder, thus unsuitable for spreading on bread. I prefer my sandwich fillings to be 8.8 at a minimum, preferably 10.8 for that high-tensile texture.

@@minihak Strength class: 5.8, 8.8, 10.9, etc., in which the first digit multiplied by 100 indicates the maximum load on the thread.

I agree cast ways would be better, but it’s unlikely to be the rails, they are more than adequate for the task he’s using them for, it’s more likely some missing balls from the bearing blocks, he took them off the rails a number of times without putting a holder block back in, and I’m positive I even saw a couple flying across the desk a couple times.

You may want to switch to ball screws! The lead screws have backlash when they switch directions. Also with backlash when you are taking a pass the pressure from the tool on the part keeps the backlash in one direction.

[@31415geon]

excellent work as usual! I'm no machinist but I watch a lot of machinists on KZbin and heard about some of their tricks to reduce chatter. starting with the easiest things first: reducing tool stick-out, that means making sure the tool does not protrude from the tool holder more than it needs to be. also making sure the tool-post is locked tight is important. in addition, the tool grind can affect the tool bit's behavior when cutting. next, having locks on all the moving parts is very important especially in small lathes, lock the carriage if you don't need to move it (like when facing), and lock the cross-slide when taking a cut along the axis of the part. I'm sure you know more than I do, but I'll give these pointers because sometimes someone may forget to do the easiest things first.
