In this video I'm making a crazy spiral part on the lathe out of a piece of brass. I'm using this part as a pedestal for the stainless steel 8 ball that I've made. 8 ball video link below.
I hope you like my work and the video.

If ever KZfaq machining video had this level of cinematography, there wouldn't be so much information and knowledge on KZfaq from Master machinist. These types of machining videos obviously take weeks of filming and editing to get put out. The people that just want to see milling machines cut metal, and lathes turn off chips, are just hipsters that want to watch "oddly satisfying machining videos." Most machining content is for Machinists who are trying to learn. It's not for hipsters to watch so they can feel like they're connected to the trades, act like they know about actual work, and act like they know about machining because they watched a few KZfaq videos. This style of videos are strictly for entertainment, not education.

@@brainfarth Stennis Space Center is relatively close to me, they had an opening for someone to work a printing press, best I could discern from the posting. They wanted someone experienced with government presses and was also a journeyman welder that was a master at Tig. Those were the 2 biggest hurdles, because I'd think veteran welders would be welding, not working printing presses, and vice versa but idk. At any rate, I had ~7yrs experience as a machinist in the field, could always pull more than my own weight in the shop, programmed multiple machines and ran them on my own shift for a while even but that wasn't nearly enough to get Stennis' attention. Iirc the pay was like 34/hr, if not higher, and I was making under 20/hr so I had to at least try lol

I have a friend who's been doing machining for some 45+ years. He has his own shop and all. You're the second person I've seen making this kind of part. I saw him making an almost similar part for a cargo ship. The captain of the ship thought it had to be done by molding but my friend told him he can cut the piece from a chunk of metal. After seeing the part the guy's jaw was dropped. This was around 30 years ago. Great work. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it.

I was most impressed with this offset metal turning video. I decided to use the technique using 42 mm diam. Aluminium. I modified the ends (since I'm not a billiard player or golfer) putting a fancy knob on top and knurling the base. The result was vey pleasing and makes a nice ornament/ talking point in my home.

A fascinating way to show the relationship between rotational motion on a circle and the sinusoidal functions. By offsetting each cut, you've essentially just taken a "value" of sine/cosine at that degree mark. It gives you a discrete sine function shape across the piece, that when viewed from the top or bottom, has also encoded the angle that the cut was performed at. Terrific machinist skills showing an elegant mathematical relationship!

Wow. This takes experience, knowing what your machine is capable of, plus a ton of practical knowledge (ie the whole setting up with height gauges and making marks to know to turn the part 20 degrees each time) to achieve. I’m fresh out of trade school and Ive realized there is so much that you don’t learn in trade school. I’m at a small job shop trying to learn every little bit I can and like uploading time lapses of what I’m working on, but this is next level

Absolutely! It's incredible to see the level of skill and precision involved in this work. I completely relate to your experience - trade school provides a great foundation, but there's so much more to learn on the job. Keep pushing yourself and sharing your progress; it's inspiring to see others grow in their craft

Could you make two identical copies then slice off opposite halves of the disks at each end to make them both semicircular and out of phase with each other. Then interlace the two parts and bond it together at both ends. The single helix is pretty spectacular.
