Thanks Jan, ah although it brings something essentially out of order to working condition its not to compare with a proffesionell rebuild. The best thing is that from here most every one mechanically inclined can do the rest.

Very interesting video, a beautiful job, this will give the lathe many years of accurate work. That bed had a significant amount of wear .This lathe looked in a general tidy condition as a machinist. I am fanatical cleaning the bed if anything abrasive has been used and regular lubing. Long-term accuracy depends on the bed and slide condition.

Die Eier muss man erstmal haben, sein Drehbankbett auf den Hobel zu legen. Die Vorher-Messung funktioniert natürlich nur, wenn man der Geometrie des Hobels 100%ig vertrauen kann. Ist das gegeben?
@henrikandren69674 ай бұрын
This is google translate both ways so bare with me... Ja und nein... Die Vorher-Messung wie am 2:21min sind nur indikativ, ganz richtigt. Es sind eine aggregat von Planer längsbevegung und drehbenk aber es ist gut. Wie bei allen alten Maschinen müssen Sie wissen, wie sie funktionieren. Zum einen habe ich Arbeitsproben gemacht, um zu evaluieren, wie es läuft. Zum einen gibt es einen Zwischenschritt, den ich glaube ich in einem anderen Film gezeigt zu haben, wo ich vor dem letzten Feinschnitt eine Kontrollmessung mit einem Scheuerlineal durchführe. Hat auch ein Video des Testschnitts in voller Länge. Die Eier sind im Nest ;-) Sehr gute und intressant Arbeit in Ihren Videos!

That is some high-precision accuracy. I bought a Grizzly lathe and it is a hunk of junk. I am so sad that I don't know how to fix it.
@henrikandren696722 күн бұрын
Don´t be sad, it´s better to have a bad lathe than no lathe :-) There are a lot of info online how to refurbish a lathe, I got some videos showing some of the work I did on a old russian lathe although I wouldn´t call my videos educational, mainly sharing and hopefully inspiring. look for Jan Sverre Haugjord, Richard King (has a facebook group), Practical MAchinsist forum ha a rebuilding section ( much supported by Rich), Keith Rucker and many others. Richard still gives classes on scraping and rebuilding in the us, I took one of his classes myself some years ago.

@@henrikandren6967 i wonder how it works, if the stone wears to smaller diameter, is it compensated somehow to make the result flat?

I'm no grinderhand but I'd think it wear in the similar amounts as other cutters and I think one dress the wheels for sharpness before they go that much out of size. Maybe some expert on grinding can give you a better answer. For me I'd be more concerned with heat build up.

Question, how much wear do you get on tooling like that? How often is it checked? Just curious on the procedure on that with such exacting dimensions.
@henrikandren69674 ай бұрын
In terms of carbide tool wear, it is insignificant. Imagine and compare to similar tool in a lathe. Say a cutting speed at least 10X and a dia 200 shaft 1m long gives a cutting length of 120m. Just for reference. Back to the question. The edge is diamond lapped sharp and keen, that's what I check. Sharpness and no damages by means of nail shaving and feeling plus visual loupe inspection.

It´s a Powell Planer which has been significantly rebuilt over it´s lifetime. The company was organized in 1887 and merged with Woodward in 1899 into Woodward and Powell Planers which are "more common".

It is indeed, it has an automatic oiling system feeding each side of the V-prisms individually with a heavy flow rate. I run it for quite some time to make sure the oil feed and film is steady before measuring or making chips

The tailstock of my lathe ( flat ways) is less worn than the headstock end. Can I just switch ends the headstock is on to make the lathe better? I rarely turn really long things.
@henrikandren69674 ай бұрын
There is nothing really wrong with your thinking in terms using the un worn end of the lathe, I have however a hard time picturing a configuration facilitating it somewhat easy. Some lathes had loose V-prisms that could be turned around, right or wrong.
@hamcheeseenterprises69754 ай бұрын
would it be ground after the planing? or is planing enough to get it into spec
@henrikandren69674 ай бұрын
Depends on the spec i guess... If it was to be ground I think it wouldn´t make sense to plane it first. If one wants to it is very possible to scrape finish it after planing it, relatively little work compared to before planing. Now you´d only need to modify the surface and make sure to not alter any flatness or alignment. Otoh, having planed it for smoothnes and the material cut butter smooth, the result after deburring with a ground precision stone really makes you think trice before starting doing anything else to it... I have though planed other cast irons where I would not feel satisfied with the planed finish for a sliding surface. So it might depend on the case at hand as well.
@devmeistersuperprecision41553 ай бұрын
Depends. Some lathes have hardened beds and these are best ground. Often, the last bit is accuracy is obtained from hand scraping of the planed surface
