See our BIG Lathe in action and making chips! This video is a job showing step by step machining the ends of 2 large steel tubes in our big 7 metre lathe. The steel tubes are approximately 4 metres (12’ feet) long and 350mm (13 3/4” inches) in diameter and will eventually be a part of a Toomey Earthmovers All-in-one Laser bucket. After the machining we also need to weld in drive plates and end caps to each tube. We hope you enjoy seeing the big lathe in action!
Check out Toomey Earthmovers All-in-one Laser Buckets here: / @toomeyearthmovers6218
In this video we are using:
- Shenyang No.1 CW6280B Lathe
- WIA Weldmatic 500i welder

Man I wish I had seen your work 25 years ago before I went to college to study engineering. Now, in my 40's I'm only truly happy in my shop building something or welding something to repair it. Had I known how interesting this work is and how fulfilling it can be I would have skipped engineering and thousands of hours spent sitting in front of a computer screen and just learned skilled trades earlier in my life. If we want kids to go into the skilled trades, and we very much need them to, they need to be shown these kinds of videos as a way to introduce them to both how important these jobs are and just how rewarding they can be.

I'm german, so english is not my first language, sorry for any mistakes. Be careful when working on a big machine. It happened to me at the beginning of my career, that a part would be riped out from the machine (weight around 250 lbs). My Boss came running, asking me" are you allright?" Told him "Yes, i'm ok, still looking for the machine". Boss: I'm not interested on the machine, YOU'RE ok? Told him a second time "i'm allright", Boss: "now let's have a look at the machine". Luckily the lathe was capsuled, and no damage was found. I only had to adjust the tool again. A fault like this happened no second time once more to me. Wish you a good luck on your career and stay safe.

It about always makes a ring like that. Now, if a sound like that starts changing significantly kill your machine or just run! Lmao!

No mate....this is a LATHE! Man that thing is huge and obviously it can do this type of work easily. Also reading the comments down below...Karen, Kurtis, seeing you encourage an apprentice is great to see...really showing that Aussie friendliness your country is known for. One day I hope to make it there for a vacation, seems like a nice place with great people.

And we can breathe again, it’s Friday and this weeks episode on the Homey TV channel. Once again he’s ably assisted with some heavy engineering - oh boy, now that’s a lathe! Great work and superb videoing and editing - Karen, you don’t get enough credit for your hard work.

G’day Kurtis. Another great video mate. That big lathe is incredible. Toomey Earthmovers is an awesome company. I was blown away when I visited them on New Year’s Day and did their shop tour video. I think that’s when I popped in quickly to say g’day to you. Say hi to Karen for us. Cheers mate 🍻. Aaron

Hey mate yeah they've got a fantastic setup in their workshop and no doubt why they're so busy with the great machines they are building. That was the time you dropped in to see me, time sure is flying. Take care mate

@clydebalcom3679 2 жыл бұрын

Are you going to fit a quick change toolpost to this lathe? Although I enjoy the disaster, destruction, and discontent as much as the next guy, there's something to be said about a nice bit of machine fabrication. Congratulations on gaining a bit of real estate in your shop. It is good news to hear that your large lathe is going to work out well. And I wish your departed lathe the best of luck in it's new home.

As far as I can see, that IS a quick-change toolpost? See 9:18 ..... or did I misunderstand something about the quickchange?

@mooseflunky4569 2 жыл бұрын

@@gregm1457 I asked the same question right after the video came out. Kurtis told me that the Dorian QCTP is still on his small frontline lathe that he still has for "small" jobs. Like you, I thought that the lathe that went away was the one we usually see him working on. Look up his response to me for the full details straight from Kurtis.

Hey Kurtis, just a really dumb question possibly. That tube looked to be precision honed on the inside unless I'm mistaken. Is that really necessary considering your welding plugs in both ends? Seems like an added expense when an unfinished internal bore would work considering. Just a dumb question I guess. Maybe its all you could get or customer supplied material. Just curious.

@CuttingEdgeEngineering 2 жыл бұрын

hey mate good question was going to explain that in the video but didn't. Material is in short supply at the moment and customer got what they could get, we agree it's a waste of a finished honed tube the unhoned is what they normally go with.

It's nice to see that Isaac appreciates your content as well. It's important to learn different skills and techniques to be able to get a good finished product, especially if it might be a one off where one might not do that again for some time. Keep up the good work.
