Making a PRECISION Machinist Jack || INHERITANCE MACHINING

Welcome back to the manual machine shop! In this video I’ll be prototyping a machinist jack with a few unique design features. The original idea comes from a very nice follower who shared his idea with me and I’m excited to share it with you as it solves a lot of the common problems with typical screw jacks. As always I spent a little time at the drafting board engineering the design (mostly) based around the tooling I had available in the shop. The final design is made from A2 tool steel and one of the key features that sets it apart are the knurled clamping collars that replace the standard jamb nut designs. Additionally there is a 2 stage threaded mechanism that uses a very coarse multi start thread for quick adjustment. Then ultra fine threads for high resolution allowing for precisely setting the jack height to within one ten-thousandth of an inch. Most of the work was done on the metal lathe as well as the vertical milling machine, but I used my previously made rotary table chuck adapter to maintain my references as I bounced back and forth between the machines. And it worked flawlessly.

You can make a gauge to allow you to test the fit of an internal multi-start thread one course at a time. You do this by making the external thread like normal, but then take additional cuts at other offsets to shave off all but one of the thread's starts. That'll allow you to use it to gauge the size of each course of an internal thread independently, as the gauge will fit with a correctly-cut course even if the other two courses are not yet to full depth, where using the full thread only tells you when _all three_ courses are at least the full depth (leaving you guessing as to which one is still too small).

Hey there, for cutting multistart threads it's preferable to index by either rotating one of the changewheels or just removing the chuck and rotating it as needed (2 out if 6 camlocks slugs for a 3-start). You can feed in at an angle then... (If you have to use the topslide, use a dial indicator!) Also, I'd never rely on any kind of concentricity when using a drill and tap! Enjoy

@@InheritanceMachining Yes, I'm thinking that 18 and 24mm would give a 0.5mm differential on the threads, which while not a small differential might just be enough.

Next time, use an indicator to get more accuracy on the adjustment of the lead for the multistart thread. Handwheel measurements are great, but it only takes a few seconds to set up the indicator and get it spot on.

@joshuawills5242 Жыл бұрын

And for anyone having trouble visualizing it - Blondihacks' Quinn uses the technique often. In this case, you'd mount the indicator to the cross slide, move the entire carriage in X (with the feedscrew still engaged so you don't lose clocking) until the indicator reads something useful, then drive just the cross slide the distance you need to offset the new cut.

Mate, I love the channel, especially the manual drafting. Being a career draftsman starting on the board and table and eventually transitioning to CAD in college, I can say I love the more tactile feel of manual drafting and your drawings are mint! I have a suggestion for you to try within the mechanics of your technique, the knurling on the barrel of your lead clutch is to allow you to rotate the barrel as you strike a line, this rotation will help maintain a point on your lead longer and prevent flat spots from developing. Try it out and let me know what you think. Keep up the fantastic work, and remember if it's worth doing it's worth overdoing.

How deep is the damage on the magchuck? Will it grind out?

@InheritanceMachining Жыл бұрын

It feels like maybe 5 to 10 thou so should grind out. but that's going to take a while 😂

Use your precision flat stone to remove any burr that was raised from the impact, and leave the divot to serve as a GIANT!… GLARING!… REMINDER!… to be more careful in the future. For the same reason, the chowdered-up grinding disk should be wall mounted at eye level as near to the machine as possible. Maybe on a nice decorative plaque.

@@InheritanceMachining, why remove all that metal if your Grandpop paid for it? Just knock off the burr.

My master once told me that you never put both hands on both axis at the same time, AVOBE ALL with the grinder. It's just too easy to cross your references unconciously and make a mess. You only touch the Z when you have to increase it and leave it alone while you're grinding. I did that mistake once in the lathe. Of course I crashed, totaling the piece, breaking an expensive insert and leaving an awful scar on the chuck. Lesson learned! Also, I want to congratulate you for your channel. It's just amazing how warm, well explained and well filmed your videos are. You're growing fast and it's totally deserved. You even have the "big ones" like Colin Furze cheering up your work. Thank you for bringing this awesome videos, I dream of having a shop like yours one day. In the meantime, I'll just enjoy your videos! :D

That is great advice. I typically don't do that except when I am getting a touch on the part (as in this instance). But may need to change that practice as well.

Concentricity: the quality of having the same centre (as circles inside one another). Antonym: Eccentricity a circularity that has a different centre or deviates from a circular path. Man !!, there is just no accounting for the uber cool world that lathes and machining opens up to enjoy. Simple yet deeply layered. Heaven for a mind craving detail, accuracy and thriving on complexity. Its so exciting to see a whole new world opening up to me and I feel so bloody lucky. All new language, concepts, challenges, problems and solutions, possibilities, opportunities... I dont, but I almost do wish I'd done a fitter-turner apprenticeship instead of an electrical apprenticeship. Oh well, never to late to have a second childhood I guess 😆 Thanks !! Much appreciated !!

I have said this before. So many videos give the impression that everything comes out perfect & mistake free. We rookies at home then get frustrated by all the problems that are not shown on the video. The mistake shown at the end of this video is more important that the build video itself in my book. It's keeps viewers at home from getting discouraged when things go south when they see it happens to the best of them. Well done.

You make the the tools, parts, pens, etc how I would if I had my own lathe, and mill but alas I do not. I started my machinist, welder, fabricator life at 13 working for my uncle at his shop, then was taught by one of the best teachers I've ever known when I got kicked out of normal high school and had to go to a continuation High school where I met Mr. Smith who changed my life and really put me on the path I took as he taught me everything he knew about welding and machining. I love you work man you strive for the same thing I do and that's to make stuff as clean and perfect as you can. I just wish I inherited a machine shop lol.

@InheritanceMachining Жыл бұрын

Thanks, man. While you didn't inherit a machine shop, you did have a great mentor which is even more valuable in my opinion. It's hard to find people who want to teach what they know. Keep it up and do the same for someone else someday.

As a retired machinist I love watching this channel. A true craftsman at work. I built a similar set of 4 jacks about 40 yrs ago for use on a large boring mill. Used 1” X 8 on the sleeve and 5/8” X 10 on the anvil. Turn the sleeve and get .125 per turn. Use the anvil and get .100 per turn. Turn the sleeve and hold the anvil and get .025 per turn. No special taps required. I read an old Mechanics illustrated article about a house jack that used the same principle.

short lil story. my grandfather retired when he was 62, which made me 4 years old in 1973. he had buddies that worked at a foundry next to a machine shop. i knew at 4 and 5 i was going to work with metal. i fell in love with the art of welding, working a lathe. i love how u can be precise or u can use a BFH.. lol. the smell of a machine shop will forever be etched in my brain. there is something therapeutic about machine work. anyways, loved your video sir

I'm a little surprised that you got no shift from the locking collar. While a locknut will shift the screw through all the axial clearance, I expected the collar to shift the screw through half of it. I'm not sure why it didn't. Also, despite being a machinist for decades, I don't recall ever hearing of an eyecrometer, and I don't know why I never thought of it myself. Brilliant!

@InheritanceMachining Жыл бұрын

So something that helps with the shifting is to keep the collar at the verge of too snug so there is no backlash. Or at least at the scale you are measuring. That's actually why I included the flats on the anvil only. In the event i needed it to be more snug than I could turn to reduce backlash. Oh and I didn't invent "eyecrometer". But I liked it so I use it! 😁
