Machines | Heavy Metal Machining Part 3
videos | at work | information | view | construction
This is the final video for this short series. Be sure to check out parts 1 and 2 to see all of the heavy pressing and turning action. In this episode, we do some work in the horizontal boring mill to get the end holes drilled and tapped. Afterwards, I'll set up the shaft in the milling machine to mill the three 2" keyways. Along the way I share with you some special "V blocks" I built to support the work, and other other tips I use for measurements. I hop you enjoy and thanks again for all of the support I get from everyone! Tom Lipton at OxToolCo : https://www.youtube.com/user/oxtoolco

A very enjoyable set of videos! What was involved in precisely refitting the gear and bearings to the shaft given the large hydraulic press loads and bearing destruction required to get them off. It would be interesting to see that.

Very nice project we've got here, pleasure to watch as always, thanks Adam! Greetings from Germany

Great job! I've got a small shop, a Hardinge lathe and a BP. I learned a few neat tricks watching this, thank you. I noticed the same thing with the somewhat wimpy stock BP motor; loads easily, slows, stalls. I replaced my 1.5HP motor with a new 3HP and a VFD, couldn't be happier, and so far, the spindle doesn't seem to mind the upgrade. Hogs like crazy. Happy new year!

Why is your center keyway diff than the original shaft?. I noticed a step in yours. Keep up with your great videos.

Happy New Year, Dude............

Fantastic, really interesting and well filmed and documented.

First let me say that I am not a machinist. I am a woodworker. And yet, I am totally fascinated by your videos. You explain every step of what you do in such a clear manner that I feel as if I could almost jump in and give you a hand. Thank you for the many hours of entertaining and informative videos. You are definitely a master at what you do.

What a series Adam! Sheesh, looks like for jobs like this its time to lobby your employer to get you a K&T milling machine that's at least the size of your S-12 you got at home, preferably bigger! XD I mean, that shaft looked like it would have been too much to hold for even your K&T S-12, IF you could have gotten that shaft to it in your home shop to begin with! @_@

True craftsmanship and skill. Going slightly off topic, (sad i know) but the music (38'42'')heard it many times , who is the band??
-
Enjoyed the series thanks. So we are not going to see the new bearings and gear pressed on? :-(

See the wiggle on the camera image 31:12. Telling sign of it being a line scan camera rather than an area scan one. (For anyone who cares)
Excellent footage. I love that fact that a mill I can only dream of is too light for Adam. LOL!
