The beautiful sound of cutting metal. Chips away.

[@lewisalexander]

At last, the metallic rendition of "popcorn"

[@davidpook5778]

I can't top that!

[@shawngoldsberry747]

Hey Dave have you ever made a part so small that you can hold it in one hand and tighten the Chuck up with the other.

[@nmopzzz]

Its really interesting... Had KZbin been around when I was young, and if I had been watching the metal working videos like this, I think I would have become a machinist instead of an electrical engineer. Its been a good career for me. I have got to see the world, met of lot of interesting and really nice and incredibly smart people, but these working with metal videos keep sucking me back in to these thoughts... Thanks for the videos.

[@ChrisB257]

Great selection of shots Dave - nicely done. Huge variety of 'music' - from a deep rumble to a high pitched shriek, and some squeaks! Many impressive depths of cut. (and feeds), and some very handsome chips here and there :) Have a great weekend Dave - plus some John Smiths of course!

[@mftmachining]

Thanks David for some fine shots of serious metal cuting....no comments needed....top

[@DrakkarCalethiel]

Just love that color transition from light straw to a really rich blue of the chips.

[@keithburt2858]

Is it wrong to enjoy watching chips peel off in perfection ?...I think not, thanks for all you post,love the realness of your component machining posts and the english dryness of your commentry

[@Just1GuyMetalworks]

Always love these videos, Dave. Thanks 😁. Cheers!

[@shawngoldsberry747]

I love the funky beat of an interrupted cut.

[@Lesfac]

Many moons ago I worked in a toolroom on the milling section. One of the guys used to wear nylon shirts. The blue hot chips made his shirts look like string vests. I love watching your heavy machines making those huge chips. It would be an education to know how to manage those huge weights hanging out of the chuck and understand what the machine can take.

[@93holzkopf1412]

Those sure look nice! They aren't fun when they make their way down your shirt though. Immediatly makes you start dancing. Still have a scar on my neck from one of them bastards.

[@mftmachining]

I second that....dunno how many times i danced, but it was a lot....those bastards always find a way where they don´t belong.....

Indeed, avoid wearing nylon clothing 😨

Just watched again before bed. That first min and a half is the best.

Hey Dave ... how about a John Smith and a comment on the transition form owner to employee...hope it’s around good for you ...

[@bostedtap8399]

Nice montage to play on the TV during Christmas lunch, better than that fireplace video. Thanks for sharing.

[@captcarlos]

Gidday Dave, no stringy chips allowed at your machine! I've noticed these big lathes you are using all use old school, heavy duty tool posts and no compound. Noticing the depth and feed of the chip and the time in each cut I'd say rigidity is more important than any time gained with a quick change tool post. Awesome to watch, thank you for filming your work.

[@AzizaVFR]

That speed and feed is so satisfying.

[@jthewelshwarlord6331]

Watching those chips makes me miss one of my favourite machines in my former workplace: a Geminis GE-2000 lathe. It was big, rigid, and could take cutting depths that the TOS lathes struggled with. My first job on them was a set of hard-faced collars with EN8 bodies for a steelworks. My favourite feature on that lathe was the compound's locking screws, which made threading an absolute dream. When I did threading on it as well and I needed to change the gears for the pitch I needed and my coworker and mentor, a Cottam and Brookes-trained toolmaker with 26 years experience and 6 years employed with the company, actually learned something new about that lathe because he never needed to thread on it. The only delays I had on it were finding the key and pin for the gear bushings because they were buried under half an inch of muck in the gearbox. Lovely lathe, that Geminis. I wish I could've taken it home with me after my redundancy.

Hello Dave, That place you work sure gets a lot of big work. They must have a full time guy running around with a wheel barrow and shovel removing swarf from the machines. Have a good weekend. Ken

[@karlhrdylicka]

Thank you Mr.Chips for another turning treat ,Saturday evening , let me guess .down the boozer for a few pints,? as a treat for a lot of work done .looks like you get a good variation of jobs rather than just making big holes down the middle of bigger lengths of material.

[@er.hamed2001]

very nice good job❤️

[@Aasi1337]

does that tos have a two speed switch on the straight turning bed. it have helped me on long hollow rollers if they have started chatter. I try to change repeatedly from lower rpm to higher rpm to stop the chatter and get some time to change the feed if it helps at the job.

[@mikewasowski1411]

Nice chips really enjoy your channel. I’m at the opposite end of the spectrum....with a 200x300 lathe 😂 but hey one can dream, right.

[@Sketch1994]

Awesome as always? Might I ask what coolant pump are you running and what is your coolant tank capacity? I have a 70 liter tank and a 1hp 3 phase pump that looks tiny and I am thinking of upgrading that. PS: You have the only maching channel on KZbin that I can just watch chips being made!

[@drewstools1770]

I love the smell of cutting oil in the morning smells like.....

[@waynep343]

I wonder if there is a way when the cutting edge is creating harmonics . If a steel tube filled with lead or steel shot could be bolted to the tool holder to dampen them. Or if divers waist weights that fit on a 2" wide nylon belt could be threaded on a ratcheting strap and cinched up around the middle of the part to also dampen harmonics on some jobs . I just cringe thinking what the harmonics are doing to the preloaded spindle bearings. The fretting between the gear faces he the headstock all the way down to the quick change gearbox.

[@bigsmoke6189]

Yes they're called "silent tools " with tuned mass dampers inside the bar ,they are incredible to use , serious engineering magic !
