Harold. Nice Video! You do what makes you happy. This is your life enjoy it to the fullest. Thanks for sharing this idea. Though it was not originally yours, you built it your way, and did a very good job of making a mundane task much simpler, not to mention easier on the fingers. You will be missed. I am going to copy much of your machine, for my use only. Thank you!

I did machine work for Stubbs Suzuki but never for anyone as far off as Sugarland. I did machine work for Bruce Bristal Honda and a few others that I no longer remember.

Hi Harold. Sorry to hear your health isn't great. Hopefully things will continue to pick up. I've been to emergency ward a few times lately, but that's just part of getting old. Just waking up each day is a big plus ;). All the best from down under. Mega lathe. Cheers Rob

Harold, So enjoy your videos, I have a Ditron 2 axes DRO had it on my lathe, took it off to move the lathe, now the X and Y axes are both moving at the same time, example, if you run the feed on the X axes, the Y or cross feed also reads the same numbers, can't figure out how or what happen and need to get the cross feed to read it's cross movement, Any ideas, keep all your videos coming.👍👍👍👍
@AmateurRedneckWorkshop2 ай бұрын
I have not heard of that happening. You would be best off to ask Ditron. Just a suggestion do you have more than two connection to the scales? Maybe you have hooked the cables to the wrong ones.

Hi Harold, thanks for the update. We kinda lost touch after the ARW live streams ended and I did not realise you were having such a tough time with your health. But it sounds like you are holding your own anyway. Nice looking new lathe, and I'm sure you won't have any problems selling the Craftsman. Best regards Paul
@AmateurRedneckWorkshop3 ай бұрын
Well Paul I think that if you can hold still it is a lot betterer than getting worse. The Craftsman lathe has a new home already.

I used a needle nosed pliers to pull the links through each other. I finally found that when they get some oil on them they slip too much for me.

Thanks for the health update, Harold. It's a shame you don't have room for both lathes. Having a second machine is handy for that one time you need a lathe to make a critical part for your other lathe.

Prayers for your health, Harold. Enjoy that beautiful lathe! You reminded me of another great Boudreaux story. (I can spell just fine; you just gotta read with a Cajun accent for a minute.) Boudreaux and Clarence dey been hollerin' and fightin; back and fort cross de bayou for years. Boudreaux keep tellin' his wife, "Cher, if de ever build a bridge across de bayou I'm gonna go kick Clarence butt. After some time, de Parish built a bridge cross de bayou. Boudreaux's wife hears him yellin' at Clarence and tole him, "You said if dey ever build a bridge you gonna go over and kick Clarence butt." He said, "Cher, you right. I''ll be back in a bit." Real quick Boudreaux came back home. His wife said, "I thought you were gonna kick Clarence butt." Boudreaux said, "I was but when I saw dat sign dat said 'Clarence 13 feet 6 inches' I changed my mind."

Great choice on the PM lathe! Not really on more complicated than the craftsman. Speeds, feads including direction and thread pitches on the head , power feed (x,y) on the apron with I THINK the only difference will be the engagement lever will be feeds and threads in different directions (up /down) assuming the craftsman is the same as my old atlas with both feed / thread being the same lever and direction to engage
