1940s Metal Lathe [Restoration]
Рет қаралды 5,052,882
Күн бұрынThis tool restoration focused on a Craftsman "Model 109" metal-cutting lathe from 1948. The lathe was giving to me by a fan about a year ago. This specific lathe is quite small for a metal-cutting lathe and everything about it has been miniaturized compared to "normal-sized" machining lathes. These were marketed as a model-makers lathe or a hobbyist lathe.
These lathes do have some fatal flaws that I point out in the video. Most notably, the spindle is only 0.5" wide and completely hollow. This means that the lathe will never be able to take large cuts or work well with harder metals. If you follow the limitations of this small lathe, then you can definitely get the job done.
I decided to repaint all parts as there was too much paint splatter on most of the castings. Several of the bronze bushings were worn out, so they needed to be completely replaced. I do believe this lathe was only missing one of the remaining gears, but hopefully I can find it one day. The decals for this machine were found here: wiki.vintagemachinery.org/Deca...
After fully reassembled, I was able to get a pretty decent cut out of some brass stock that had, so I was pleased. I may take this a but further and do some modifications on the lathe to improve performance. You can see what can be improved here: www.deansphotographica.com/mac...
I would like to thank Evapo-Rust for sponsoring this video.

My Dad had one very similar to this one, and as I recall I inherited it, and used it to turn small commutators on small motor armatures for years in my generator, starter and alternator rebuilding shop. It was an upgraded model, as it had more gears and a multi tool holder. I rebuilt it, and remember every screw and nut in this video. I was born in 1944, and can remember that being in my Dad's shop as long as I can remember. The video brings back fond memories from years long gone. Thanks...👍😁

I have the exact lathe that belonged to my Dad who has long since died. He bought it new, and after some time one of gear(s) in the power feed crumbled so he always told me it was junk. After watching this video I took a look at it and it will work it just won't cut threads or power feed until I can get some made. Now I have the desire to break it down and restore it. Thank you for the inspiration to clean up something that means so much to me and I don't mean money wise.

Patric, as long as you know the tooth count a machine shop can make the gear for very little cost. A thought for you, when you finish the restoration, if you only start it up just to see it run you will think of your dad. I have a pretty 1940 handsaw belonging to my dad which I still use. When I use it I always think of my dad
@someotherdude 3 жыл бұрын
I'm sure the diecast gears aren't great, but you can buy nylon, iron or steel gears easily. Nylon would be appropriate for this lathe. You can even have someone 3d print them using rigid resin (very strong) and I'm talking about stereolithography, not filament printing.

About ten years ago I restored a 1950’s Atlas Craftsman 12” lathe with the quick change gearbox for threading. I had a lot of gears to replace because someone didn’t know how to operate the machine,and all the gears are made from pot metal. Took about a month to get all the parts and redo it, because I had never stripped and rebuilt a lathe before. While it’s not a high precision machine, it’s a great mini lathe for the home hobbyist. I laughed out loud a few times as you forgot to put in a part, because as the old adage goes..."been there, done that!" It also is a pretty good wood lathe in a pinch, and I’ve made a few handles for tools over the years with it. I also bought an AXA wedge style quick change tool post with tool holders. It sure speeds up changing tools without having to align the tools every time. I enjoy your channel, and loved the tune you played with the sheet steel. Keep having fun, and I hope you make a few buck in the process. I can’t bear to sell stuff I rebuild, so my kids will have to do that when I croak. Won’t they have fun? 😂😂😂😂

There's some other stuff about the lathe that this video doesn't consider. Particularly, if the lathe ways are worn out or if there is a big twist in the bed. That work is much more difficult to do. Particularly worn out ways, they have to be scraped ideally, and that takes a lot of time.

I don't remember what it cost, I'm sure it would seem cheap today, but it was too expensive for my dad to buy, although he would have liked to have one. Looking at it now I see that it really was a serious and expensive toy. Nonetheless, it would have been a great teaching device for me if we had gotten one.

I really enjoy how playful you are as you do your work. The extra long painter's tape and the little sheet metal dance made me laugh. The lathe really looks nice. Isn't it rewarding when you finish a project like this?

If I took that apart, I would forever have a box of parts. Great job! I enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing.

Hi there Hand Tool Rescue. I was really excited to learn that you are in Saskatchewan. I grew up on a farm near Hague. I just want to say that I love watching your videos.
