Quill handwheel - MACHINING

As always,
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your support: / calem21

[@mymechanics]

Machining that cast aluminium wheel was very satisfying to watch and I'm very glad you chamfered its holes at the end :-)

[@owainrichards4372]

Think have a candidate for next collab!

[@Lancars]

Ahh yes your greatest foe. Edges.

[@jobkneppers]

Indeed I noticed you're quite anal about chamfering. It's like using end sleeves on your wiring. Once started no way back. Same problem here. It's a non-severe medical condition. I think doctors call it a mild obsessive neurosis. You can become old in a happy state. No barriers in chamfers and using end sleeves I believe. I love your channel too btw. Thank you both!

[@geoffgarrett5622]

This press has worked like a charm for my projects kzbin.infoUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!

[@bobolander]

Complex machining made to look DECEPTIVELY easy - the Mad Machinist strikes again. I'm seriously impressed. Seriously.

[@AsitShouldBe]

Best machinist of youtube

[@josephlovell6951]

There are better machines on KZbin that just not as driven as he is. The effort he put in to his work is incredible

[@johngrace199]

And in the end...it looks like it's always been there. Another wonderful video and demonstration of how clever and precise you are...well done young man, well done.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Cà Lem, that wheel really suits the mill, great idea taking out 2 spokes, always a pleasure to watch your videos, awesome job mate, cheers Matty

I tried to make it lightweight as possible. Thanks Matty 😉

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

👍

[@josephlovell6951]

Matty he is amazing. Have you seen his old stuff. His first lathe was a real pice of scrap. He made it work though and to see his work now is inevitable. Love your Chanel to by the way... you live in a very beautiful place to bad they have you locked down over there

[@rameezsheikh7576]

I have learned a new (to me) use of dividing head 🙂, thanks

[@465maltbie]

Really nice dividing head work, lightening and reshaping the handwheel makes a big difference. Thanks for sharing Charles

[@rameezsheikh7576]

I learned a new (to me) use of dividing head 🙂

[@dlavway1]

Once again, an amazing piece of craftsmanship. I bow in acknowledgment, in the presence of a master. The minutes of your video posts seem to fly by and I’m never ready for them to be over.

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

👍

[@Bob_Adkins]

Ca Lem, the Savage Machinist. He's totally fearless and won't let anything defeat him.

[@kevinthomson8282]

Wow Ca Lem, I DO like that ! Learning from you that I need to review how I use 3-jaw vs 4-jaw chuck, also learning about INTERFERENCE fits. And your centre alignment trick with the little steel rule is a real gem. Many thanks :-)))

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

VERY GOOD CA LEM...thanks for your time

[@gary.solexa]

One of the most satisfying machining videos on KZbin.

[@CNCDude]

At first I was like "WHAT??? He is going to mess with the original part? Is he nuts?" And then I realized, "Wait is Ca Lem! He can probably make the entire mill and will come out way better than the original one!" Had watched the driving wheel on some other videos and wondered where it came from. I guess now I know. Gorgeous piece!

[@zafaradeel2107]

Recycling old machine part is environment friendly practice.thanks for reusing old wheel.

[@eddietowers5595]

This was awesome you seem to have had a “handle” on it. Couldn’t help but to throw in a little dry joke.😀👍

[@SalmoTrutti]

It was a wheely good joke

[@eddietowers5595]

@@SalmoTrutti Oh ho, ho, ho You "handled" that smoothly, Nicely done.

[@davesmith9325]

You have the craftsmanship of a old zen master. You reveal the perfect potential of the product hidden within the starting materials. Thankyou for sharing your art and skill.

[@adropbear09]

Always a pleasure to watch your work and precision. 🇦🇺

[@amilidis]

Good to see you again! Great job!

[@EverettsWorkshop]

I have a commercial version of a mill hand wheel on my mill - very worthwhile to install one. Yours is over the top, very well done!

[@Motocue912]

That hand wheel turned out sick. Nice job! No Wobble and it’s concentric unlike most hand-wheels.

[@k9elli]

I had to laugh, I literally just did the same mistake in my shop 😂 you’re not the only one, brother. New shop keeps looking better and better. Thanks for the upload 💪🏼

We need more "double check, measure twice cut once" lesson.

[@stels7776]

@ Measure 7 times 1 cut

[@zumbazumba1]

@ There are 3 tolerances in machinist world.1. Fuck yea its like god made it himself(happens 2-3 times a year if you are lucky) 2.MEEEH its good enough for what it is (most common one) 3. TO THE FUCK IT BUCKET (the one with the failures and crushed dreams also known as a scrap bin )! Looks like you have a perfect working example of 2nd tolerance here !

[@mr_timothyy]

@ Measure once, cut twice, and the dang thing is still too short!

[@benrivenbark]

@ I measure four times, cut twice, and my part is *still* too short!

[@claudiolebandit9408]

You start with an old thing. You made it better than new, cause there s a part of you inside. Respect

[@nefariousyawn]

Beautiful work as always. I really appreciate the attention to detail you commit to such a simple part as a hand wheel. Thanks for sharing!

[@randyhager2054]

DANG........WHY CAN'T WE GIVE MORE THAN ONE THUMBS UP!!!! NOT FAIR!!!! That's not a hand wheel...........it's a "CUSTOM BILLET STEERING WHEEL"! Ca Lem you have done it again young man. INCREDIBLE WORK...but I've come to expect that from you.

[@TomMakeHere]

Love it! That's got to be the world's most true running handwheel Well done

[@seeigecannon]

Every time I am watching a machinist video and it goes from sped up to real-time I think something is about to go very bad. Glad to see nothing catastrophic happened. Keep up the good work.

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Wing it for the win! as always it's great to watch you meld art and machining. Thanks for sharing, Cheers

[@billbaggins9961]

Always worth watching. I learn new of doing things I have never thought of before. Thanks again for sharing!

[@intjonmiller]

I love that style! Great concept and great work!

[@NeMoC53]

Guy like you are so damn dangerous. A young, ambitious, and skilled guy with patience..... nothing stopping you man. You make me want to try harder, think differently, see possibilities.... im inspired by you. Really really well done. Sincerely, Your fan for life

[@DudleyToolwright]

Amazing work as always. You are quite the inspiration: artist, engineer, and machinist.

[@Darkrif1957]

Thanks Calem You have taught me some good tricks . Thankyou .

[@984francis]

That lathe. Everything so clunk, clunk precise. Superb.

[@timmiller9666]

On this episode of pimp my mill we make custom rims that are sure to get all the ladies. Awesome vid as always!

[@LaxianKey1]

Thanks for the video Ca Lem, great and creative work as usual. These always make my day.

[@xuannguyen7566]

Sự tỉ mĩ rất đáng khâm phục. Mình làm chế tạo máy hơn 10 năm nhưng vài kỹ năng của bạn gỏi hơn mình từng nghĩ nhiều.!

[@stumcconnel]

Absolutely beautiful, you have amazing skill. And I love that you seemingly did it just because you felt like it!

[@stevenjefferson3379]

Incredible work, masterful technique and excellent results! Great video, thank you.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Very nice seeing something useful and beautiful inside the old handwheel. Love it. It all worked out well, mistakes are some times made. Thank you for sharing.

Just a second too late 😅. Thanks uncle Randy

[@123232ism]

As always...fantastic job well done. "The master at work". Thanks for sharing.

[@qwertyu19951]

You went overboard again... and I love it!

[@barthanes1]

Exquisite work as always. You have quadrupled the value of the tools in your shop.

[@yeagerxp]

Awesome !!!! You PIMPED OUT your mill 👍👍👍Thanks for sharing

[@c00lamah]

I just LOVE what you do. Thank you.

[@BernardSandler]

As always, the work of your hands is just beautiful. The lathe looks gorgeous. May your tools give back to you what you have given them.

[@robwatkins4356]

Always enjoy watching you work. A true craftsman. Thanks for including the mistake. It someone as good as you can make one. Then a novice like me has hope.

[@hpda44]

Excellent craftsmanship! Thank you

[@shokrefumi]

Super cool! Especially the work on the tilting rotary table

[@fredericrike5974]

Very up to the Bridgeport you rescued from dirt, grime and oblivion! Until you rebuilt it, I never thought about a Bridgeport in green- it looks great!

[@Rheasound]

Lovely video. In the way he is executing this job, no words are needed. Top notch thanks for sharing.

[@mumblbeebee6546]

A wheel worthy of an early Bentley :) Always in awe of your craft, thanks for making such nice videos about it!

[@cavemaneca]

Beautiful work. It's always nice to see your videos pop up.

[@curm1778]

Solid, professional work. Great job.

[@stephenmurray2335]

Beautiful work as ever - many thanks for sharing.

[@EdwinSteiner]

Your attention to detail is amazing!

[@TheRadioShop]

That is what I like about you. You took a design and made it your own. Great job!

[@PracticalRenaissance]

That looks so good! Great work!!

[@JT-tz5hp]

Thank you for you amazing videos!

[@serzhdyubro8083]

Very cool mod of the wheel, looks awesome, perfect work, Sir! Thanks for the video :-))

[@konijn1933]

Found this channel only a couple of days ago. I've got only ONE question: Why does this guy only have 120K subs?! Cà Lem, your channel is absolutely AMAZING!!

Thanks man. I think its alot for what it is

[@jamesdraper5231]

I always enjoy your videos! Your artist background really shines in the making of!

[@kennethdejardin795]

Excellent workmanship really enjoy watching your videos

[@chrischapel9165]

Ca Lem...nice work and creative....may I suggest "rust bluing" in the future....rust bluings durability Vs cold bluing ( which there are several products including the birchwood casey you used) is no match...cold bluing is meant for repairing scratches etc....Rust blue involves some time and effort i.e cleaning and not much more than a pot to boil the part depending on the part size then repeat a process of wipe on , boil , gentle scrub, then wipe on...

[@drewt3210]

Thank you, Chris, for this tip! I found "thecogwheel" has a great video on Rust Bluing how to. Video published March 8, 2018 if you're searching. Best, Andrew @BranchAndFoundry

[@arthgrel]

Great video!

[@gridleycountryfordinc.4790]

Beautiful job, as always.

[@BLECHHAUS]

Very nice work - congratulations! I also have a handwheel like this on my minimill. It wasn't built by myself, but it works very well and I don't want to be without it anymore.

Nicely done...beauty wheel inside that old casting

[@OldIronMachineWorks]

I am still on the fence about the wheels on the mills, but yours is well thought out and more like something Bridgeport would of put out. Another great job Ca Lem. Thanks for sharing, Gary

Thank you 😉

[@billchiasson2019]

Well done sir!! Kudos!
