Hi my friends! In this video I make two wooden faceplates for the lathe. They have threads and the threads are done in two different ways, one, using the lathe (for this process a chuck is required) and the other, using the drill press (for this process you do not need a chuck). In the case of the drill press process I used a punch in the dril press mandrel to press and guide, keep vertical and aligned the tap. The faceplates are done, one with a piece of maple and the other with a piece of black walnut, in both cases the wood humidity was between 5.4 and 6.1%. So these are very estable blanks. To place the points of perforation for the screws I used the Lathe indexing system. The threads were reinforced with CA glue. I also put metal washer reinforcements in the places where the screws will exert pressure.

You, and only you, are responsible for your safety in the shop and for your health. The procedures shown in this video, (and my answers to the comments), although they are the ones I consider safe, are not necessarily so for every operator (wood turner, carpenter, etc.). Wood is a heterogeneous and unpredictable material, not two pieces are identical, even when they come from the same trunk of the same tree, shop tools and machines can cause damage to the operator, dust and other physical and chemical contaminants may cause disease and disorders when the operator does not take into consideration adequate protection. Always read operation manuals for your tools and machinery. This video can give you a point to start your research on what is the best for you, but, in any way is the only source of information. The level of experience of the operator is also a factor; procedures that may be safe for an operator that has a lot of experience may not be dangerous for an operator with less experience. If you do not feel safe or confident with a procedure you have seen in my channel, do not repeat it. Be safe and enjoy these activities.

La madera es un material heterogéneo y caprichoso, no hay dos piezas iguales aún en el mismo tronco de un mismo árbol, las máquinas y herramientas del taller pueden causar daño al operario, el polvillo y otros contaminantes físicos y químicos pueden causar enfermedad o trastornos cuando no se toman las precauciones debidas. Siempre lea los manuales de operación de sus herramientas y maquinarias. Este video puede darle un punto de partida en investigar qué es lo mejor para Usted, pero de ninguna manera es la única fuente de información.

Excellent, Daniel. This is a great idea to make my own face plates. I will make one for my Longworth chuck and save a few $$. Saving a few bucks in these days and times is a good thing.

Hi John! Yes, my dear friend, these wooden faceplates, if they are done with hard wood, will last you for a long time, and you can do them and dedicate them to a particular function, like a Longworth chuck, as you said. Cheers! Daniel

@@DanielVilarino I was at Tractor Supply last Tuesday and bought a 1”-8 tpi nut for a little over $1.20. Traced the outline of the bolt on the back side of a piece of maple. Then used a forstner bit and drilled a hole and used a chisel to cut out the shape of the nut. Once I completed this process, I epoxied the nut into the hole and then placed on my lathe to turn a faceplate. I used T- nuts and screws to hold the faceplate into place on my Longworth Chuck. It works well. For the bolts that hold the rubber stoppers, I routed the slots with a 1/4” bit then sanded the walls of the slot. Then I used a small portion of a soda straw to cover the threads of the 1/4” bolt inside the slot. I used a hair dryer to heat the plastic as I put the straw over the bolt to make it more pliable. So far it keeps the Longworth Chuck from binding up on the grooves.

Wonderful video with great information, Daniel. Your explanation, as always, was perfect! I’m amazed at your patience with “James Dean”! I hope he is not a woodturner. I find that turners are usually nice people. He makes all of us look bad. You, my friend, are a gentleman! 👍👍👍 All the best, .....Gord

Hi Gord! Many thanks, my dear friend, for watching this video and for your always kind words! Thank you also for your support. Yes, I always found that the woodworking community in general is really nice, it must have something to do with working with such a warm and noble material as wood. Once in a while one finds a comment like that. It is a pity that some people lacks a certain level of tolerance. But happens. Anyway, better not to dwell on that. Hopefully, he will not get back to the channel and do more of those comments and if he gets too nasty I can always block him. I would prefer not to do that, because I am a firm believer in the freedom of expression, but I would prefer not to have a discussion in the channel that will distract people of the real purpose that is to have fun and learn together this beautiful art. I hope you and your loved ones are keeping yourselves safe and in good health! Cheers! Daniel

Excellent Daniel! I did the same thing several months ago. I made three different sizes of face plates the same way that you did. I also made a series of different threaded jam chucks that would fit my forstner bit set and another set of larger rounded types to fit inside of bowls I turn. These diy face plates and jam chucks save tons of time. Mucho Gracias Compradre!

There is available from many sources like MSC a spring loaded guide for taping threads on a drill press or lathe. The shank is 3/8" to fit in a chuck and the pointed tip is spring loaded. you advance the quill of the press or tail stock enough to compress the point back into the shank and put it into the recess of the tap. As you turn the tap into the material the spring keeps pressure on it to keep it aligned. If you are tapping a deep hole, you may need to advance the quill some to replace the pressure on the spring.

Another great video Daniel,never even thought of using washers for reinforcement 😣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
@DanielVilarino 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Alan! Many thanks, my dear friend, for watching this video and for your always kind words! Yes, I thought of the washers because that way the head of the screw will have a larger area to exert pressure against the wood. And there is no danger than the washers will go flying, even if, for some reason, the CA glue did not hold, because the own screw keeps them in place. Having them there is just a way to avoid searching for the right washer all the time. And if for any reason one becomes loose, just add an extra drops of CA glue and listo!! I hope you and your loved ones are keeping yourselves safe and in good health! Cheers! Daniel

Great video, I always learn from every video and nothing is left out -complete explanation. Question:I am new to turning and the club I joined closed two months after I joined, so I am on my own. I purchased a Nova Galaxy lathe but I don’t see anyone that makes turning videos with Nova lathes. Did I make a mistake buying one? I do realize now that “No va” is no go jajaja
@DanielVilarino 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Jeff! Thank you so much, my dear friend, for such nice comments! Regarding your lathe, I haven´t used the Nova Galaxy, but I seem to recall somebody using it in KZfaq. If you make a search for videos showing the Nova, there is a bunch of them. Looking at it seems pretty well constructed and Teknatool is a Company that specializes in lathe and lathe accessories. Their chucks are used by many turners. I think you should be fine. Cheers! And keep yourself and your loved ones healthy! Daniel

Daniel, A very timely video! Today’s mail brought me a new 1 1/4” tap as I just bought a new larger lathe, replacing one with a 1” spindle. I also use these wooden tapped blocks for the back of a large sanding disc, as well as my homemade longworth chuck. A great money saver. I like Louie Powell’s suggestion about putting a hole in for a tommy bar to remove a tight faceplate. I’ll incorporate that in my future efforts. Great video as always!

Wooden faceplates/glue blocks are very convenient, cheap, and fun to make. Some hints: - after tapping the threads and saturating them with CA glue, allow the glue to cure thoroughly, and then run the tap back through again to clean up the threads. I prefer to allow the glue to cure naturally rather than using accelerator. And allow enough time for the glue to cure fully; if you don't, you will gum up the threads of the tap, and cleaning CA out of those threads is not a fun job! After the hole has been threaded, apply some ordinary paste wax - that will help the face plate to thread onto the lathe spindle more smoothly. - I find that it is helpful to drill a radial hole in the side of the face plate that has a diameter appropriate to receive a 'tommy bar'. This is useful if the faceplate gets screwed too tightly onto the lathe spindle - insert a tommy bar, and holding the hand wheel steady, use the tommy bar to break the threaded faceplace loose. Be sure that the radial hole goes through face grain - if you drill the hole into end grain, using a tommy bar to lever a face place loose can break out unsupported grain.

Hi Louie! Thank you so much for the comment! Thank you very much for the tips. Nice idea about the tommy bar. Also, I have the idea to put a threaded insert to put a set screw, to keep the faceplate more secure. Cheers and keep yourself and your loved ones healthy and safe! Daniel
