For anealling appropriate a decent size biscuit tin (metal) fill it full of nice clean DRY sand bury you hot pieces in the sand and cover with a couple of inches of sand and you have a nice cooling set up - vermiculite also works well

Hi, Just a few comments about the material. It is unlikely to be En24, certainly not by design. If it were a DIY project I suppose it really could be anything. En24T (aka 817M40) is a medium carbon alloy steel and usually sold in a heat treated condition - viz.the 'T' in En24T. As such it is a through-hardened material - usually used as is. A common material for steep taper tooling was En32 which is then case hardened. I bought a lot of 40/50 Int Tooling in the 70s - made by former Bristol--Erickson employees in the UK. I used to ask a lot of questions about what I was buying. The thread would not be hardened, which was important if a power drawbar was used. By copying a taper like you did, you will have avoided a common mistake. The tooling taper should be 'fast' - that is to say, by design, the male tool taper is steeper than the mating female spindle taper angle - bigger at the larger end. This is to keep the tooling location biased at the nose to prevent the tool rattling at the front. The poorly made example you have showed that clearly. Matching angles will tend to produce a tool that refuses to release cleanly. I hope this is useful.

Hi Paul. I wish my lathe had a nice feed clutch like that. Mine just had a shear pin. When I first got the lathe I managed to shear it several times. It's just got an M3 bolt through it now 😂. That said I've not managed to shear one in ages. This video has given me some confidence to attempt a repair on a tapping head that has a bent shaft that is far too hard to machine. I looked at it a few years ago but put it to one side because I wasn't equipped to deal with it. I think I have everything I need now, so I may well have a go soon. Thanks 👍👍

Great build Paul, you are becoming quite a toolmaker! A tip on the annealing of that part, I know you wanted the small area to soften, but you should heat the whole part evenly 450-550F then bring up the end to non mag. Prevents distortion, internal stresses, CRACKS , slows cooling, and all sorts of bad metalurgy... glad it worked out well for you.

I’m kinda in a similar position. Needing to turn down a case hardened shank. I am going to try to turn it down with a CBN insert. I’m looking into the diamond tip as well as the ceramic. My machines capable, not sure if I am. Read, read and watch some KZfaq University, and read some more. I was betting on a “removable shank” but it didn’t play in my favor. So I’m left with either cutting it off and threading it/pinning it. Or turning it down to a R8 or straight shank to be used in a collet. I believe it is case hardened. So this will be fine… Probably..

CBN will work, light passes and coolant on a smaller lathe. Look at CEE and you see a 2mm cut with CBN on a shaft no problem, though admittedly the lathe used could handle a Harrison lathe in the jaw, in any orientation, no problem, and turn it to nothing.

That was a nice save of the adapter Paul. You wonder how they got the taper so far out in the first place. I buy adapters from Cutwel in Heckmondwike when they have a sale on. Although before I bought the mill I checked on prices and 30 taper are considerably more expensive than 40 taper for some reason. Its the main reason I went for a mill with ISO40 tapers. I'm not sure of 30 taper prices when they have a sale, but I was paying less than £20 last time I got some. And those are balanced to 15,000rpm, so good for our sort of use.
@SeanBZA
@SeanBZA 5 күн бұрын
I reckon the taper was incorrectly set, and only after machining, and while checking, they found it, or it missed going through a grinder to put the right taper on it, and was hardened instead, so it was left in the oops pile.

I think that jobber drills (or jobber-length drills) are for general purpose drilling and are somewhere around 8x to 14x the diameter of the drill bit. They have longer flutes than mechanics-length (also called maintenance-length drills) drill bits and screw machine drill bits (which are shorter than the mechanics-length drill bits). The shorter the drill bit, the stiffer it will be. The "longest" drill bits are extended-length drill bits, but I've also heard them called aviation drill bits. Of course, I'm certainly *not* a drill bit expert! ;)

Likely a set of washers and a Belleville pack, stacked up so the inside of one has a drive spline, and the others have it on the outside. Pressure keeps them in contact, and a light film of oil to reduce friction when slipping.

Hi Eitri, imagine a tube with two big/thick wavy washers in it pressed together by a big spring. One washer is driven by the screw cutting gearbox and the other washer drives the power feed shaft. If the torque becomes too much then one washer just rides over the other. The wavy washers have two peaks and two troughs thus the 'ride over' is quite a smooth action (it does not chatter when it slips).

It seems much simpler when you disregard tpi altogether and just use the pitch. Pitch is simply the distance between the threads and the lead is pitch x number of starts usually 1. For all threads the lathe is set for the lead. Cut one lead and then advance one pitch on the compound slide. Rinse repeat for the number of starts using the same number at the same position on the thread dial for any thread. Tpi just confuses things and is only a number to enable calculating the pitch which is actually useful.
@HaxbyShed
@HaxbyShed 9 күн бұрын
Hi tates11, I see you point but often imperial thread pitches have a lot of decimals whereas metric pitches don't - they tend to be max 2 decimal places like 1.5, 1.75, 2 etc. 3 tpi is 0.3333333r inch or 8.466666r mm so perhaps more difficult to set but the gear method (if available) sets it dead on. But I'm not suggesting I work to that level of accuracy 😁, and yes I do agree for advancing the compound we have to work in pitch regardless whether imperial or metric. Cheers
@tates11
@tates11 8 күн бұрын
@@HaxbyShedThanks for the reply. Like I said, TPI is useless, nobody really wants to know how many threads there are in any given distance, just the pitch. Unfortunately as you say imperial threads can't give the pitch you want neatly, so tpi is a poor compromise.

I'd only holding need pegs in an earthquake zone and to honest the building would fall before the shelf. People rave about old character buildings but the bricks are soft and full of rubbish, and the lime mortar is not much better than paste. If it's dry it crumbles and if it is wet it slides. But that's why old houses don't usually crack - bricks on a lime mortar bed just slide over the ones below as the walls bend and bow with time. Cheers

IMHO, all lathe and milling machine tools and accessories should be kept in mobile cabinets, which protects them from chips and dust. Heaviest items at the bottom, lightest at the top, all on pull-out sliding shelves. Frequently used, heavy accessories like mill vices can be kept on top towards the back for balance.Another mobile cabinet holds wrenches, hammers, files and another cabinet holds all bolts, screws and associated tools. In this way, the floor can be kept meticulously clean. I also have a benchtop cabinet for measuring, drawing and scribing tools. All benches are mobile as are mech. hacksaws, bandsaws and shapers. Lathe and milling machine are on plinths of large concrete pavers. Mobility is everything!

When I was young it was not uncommon to meet people who had served in India and Africa in the Forces on secondment with the Post office or Police. 50 or 60 years ago older people might have had a much wider experience of the world. So I'm guessing people posted in Kenya might have brought home the Keenya pronunciation. Some years ago I remember a bungalow near my home called Shadipur, which I think is a district of New Delhi. Perhaps somebody was posted there and brought the name home for their retirement home. Cheers
