My Pask Makes Hammer: paskmakes.com/the-pask-makes-... Many of you requested a video of a vintage style control box for my drill press, so here it is. it was a lot of work in both designing and making it. Probably a bit over the top but it was fun to make with a few cool elements to it. I'd love to know if you thought it was worth the effort or should I have made something more simple and moved on to another project? I also meant to say that it took 30 minutes to form the front panel, to give you a bit of an idea. Even though I worked out the rpm's for all four belt positions I doubt it will ever move off the second pulley as it gives me a wide range of 200-2100 rpm. :)

The over all look and seamless on top of it. Anyone who didn't know would never guess it wasn't a vintage box that was repurposed but rather a brand new construction. That screams success in what you were going for. Very, very well done mate.

@@PaskMakes A thing that helps for this Pask, is laywire. Don't try to dab the filler in, on real thin stuff, the rod can just push the molten steel through the sheet, making a blow-hole. Lay the wire flat along the joint, and run the bead on top of the wire. The wire will have the same if not more thermal mass than the sheet, making it easier to control the heat input and not blow through. Then just run the arc over that! Also, mild steel really doesn't like being autogeneously welded, it needs filler :) Only grades of stainless steel are fine to be autogeneously welded

What I love most about your channel is your “what the hell, why not?” attitude towards trying new things. Almost every project/video includes some skill that you say you’ve either never tried, or barely ever done and yet you just go for it. You’re not afraid to share failures and flaws, and you share the fact that those failures taught you something along the way. I find that very inspirational because I sometimes have a fear of trying a new technique or skill on a project because I’m afraid of wasting money, time, effort.. etc. part of me knows I can just try again, or fix the mistake but it definitely holds me back more than I’d like. I’ve been learning basic crappy welding recently and I’ve been afraid to actually make something… but I think I’m going to go for it. I’ll start small and just accept the flaws, let the project and process be my teacher.

Try using a 1/8”-1/4” thick backer bar of copper or brass clamped behind your weld. Your weld will not stick to the copper/brass and will leave a smooth seam. Works fantastic especially on thin metals. Also if you blow through it will make easier to fill and sand hole. I am a metal fabricator and this has saved me many times. You can also fill plug or drill holes with ease. PS: I like the box, well done. Write back if you need more tips.

Trick I picked up over the years as a quick-turn machinist: Next time you need to turn the OD of a disk on the lathe, just use your tail stock to hold the disk against the face of your chuck jaws or a turned face. If you don’t want a center hole, or the plate is thin like later in the video, use a second disk as a clamping plate, the disk you’re turning can “float” in-between. The screw in your tailstock is much bigger than the screw you used to hold it in this video, if you’re worried about clamping pressure :) This has been my go-to technique my entire career, I’ve never thrown a part doing it. Woo superglue technique! Nice! And the little mini pallet too!

-- Allow me to encourage folks to experiment around with making their own plastic rod by recycling the plastic caps from various odd bottles such as 2 litre soda bottles. You can experiment around with using the bottles themselves but the clear soda bottle plastic ends up quite brittle compared to the caps so keep that in mind. My advice is to stay away from the clear plastic at first and use the non-clear varieties. Yes, the various odd plastic bottles you use are of different grades of plastic so your results can vary. I encourage folks to keep their plastics separated based on the recycling number that is cast into the plastic itself or just stick with one variety of plastic from the same source. That's why I mentioned the caps from soda bottles - the caps are all made of the same plastic as far as I know and that plastic is useful for its durability and ductility. No, the different colors of the caps doesn't make any difference structure-wise if you mix them up though mixing different colors does effect what you end up with for a color! Anyway, you'll need a mould and a ram which you can easily make out of a threaded steel pipe, a cap for one end of the pipe plus the ram which you can make out of wood. Get your mold together, some safety gear including safety glasses and thick/heavy leather gloves, a good supply of plastic that fits easily into your mold, an oven that the mold fits into which will maintain a temperature of around 350° F plus a way to force the ram down inside the mold to compress the plastic. An arbor press or a hydraulic press is very useful here but some folks will use clamps such as a bar clamp or a very large C-clamp to do the job of compressing the plastic inside your mould. If you have to, you can even use your own strength to push the wooden ram into the pipe for plastic compression - just be very careful so that you don't burn yourself. For a release agent you can use Pam cooking spray... though there are a few other things that you can use to prevent the plastic from sticking to the pipe. The trick here is to make sure that whatever you use doesn't contaminate the plastic and make it unusable. Even if you don't use a release agent, don't worry too much because if need be, you can remove the cap from the end of your mould and push the plastic rod out if it gets stuck. This is often not a problem due to shrinkage when the mould cools to room temperature. As far as it goes, a lot of folks around the world have found a recycling plastic into other forms is a very easy thing to do. You can also start out on a very small scale - it isn't unusual for folks to use nothing more than a 1-in diameter x 6-in length piece of water pipe with a cap on the end for their first mold. Here in the states, you can find items like those off the shelf at your normal home improvement center such as Home Depot, Ace Hardware or Lowe's. One final thing... never forget that molten plastic is sticky and hot and it will burn you badly so take precautions! It will also burn inside your mould or inside the oven if it gets too hot so have patience as it melts into a molten mass. Remember that I mentioned 350° F? In my experience that's a good temperature to max out at but if you're a beginner, you might choose to start out at 300° F. Adjust your temp in small increments upwards based on your success over time when you go to cast a new plastic shapes out of the recycled plastic of your choosing. Also be forewarned about the off-gassing - melting plastics may give off fumes even if they're not burning so remember that as well. Do it in a well-ventilated spot. At the end of the day, getting the hang of it isn't difficult but your success will depend entirely on your ability to control the heat as well as compress the molten plastic fully into your mould. Voids and defects will ruin your efforts. Be safe and happy plastic casting! - Max Giganteum
