Full video of the TAKAHASHI lathe restoration process | Restore and Repair old Takahashi mini lathes 

The red chuck is butt-ugly! I didn't like the way he hammered on the chuck jaws to remove them at 51:00 Should have used a brass drift pin. At 22:27 he hammered on the inner race of the bearing. Wrong! Should have installed new bearings everywhere. That's why it sounds so bad. What's he gonna do about a tailstock? I think he got paint on a lot of surfaces that should not be painted. Not a good restoration.

An absolute must in most cases, that motor sounded like a rock polisher when he was done. Ugh..

Exactly, and bondo.. What the h... .. paint remover, sand blast and paint. Casting "imperfections" are non-relevant for a once fully working machine. I must admit, as a more of self-taught mechanic, once upon a time I didn't understand the importance of hitting ends of shafts (and metal parts in general) with something softer. I learned it when a mechanic once shouted at me tapping gently with a hammer onto a shaft end. He told me to never do it like I did, cause it will alter/scew/warp the the shaft dimensions. Using a softer material doesn't always guarantee it doesn't get altered.. if the moving masses are big enough, they will alter even if the collision is tiny. Also, installing the bearings by pressing/hitting the wrong raceway, transferring the axial force through the rolling elements, will most certainly shorten the life of the bearings.

Just like the big auction houses that put fresh paint to get more money on resale especially if you use red… You can paint anything red and sell it

Thank. I will try to make more videos

😊😊😂

Just what I was going to say. No primer before colour coat, hit the shaft or gear with any tool to hand, just clean and replace bearings, in fact all of it!

Это нельзя назвать восстановлением;) А реставрацией для музея - пожалуйста! Никто на нем работать не собирается (собственно это видно как он обдирает трубу) ибо зачем было красить патрон и суппорт аж до резцедержателя!? А для музея будет красиво:)

Thank you for sharing the video

Красный патрон, круто! 😊

Особенно на оси патрона, от этого зависит точность обработки.

Aber er hatte doch nur eine Stunde Zeit für die ganze Arbeit!😂

If plus coffee time it was less ​@@GpunktHartman

LA ENVIDIA ES MUY MALA

Darauf brauche ich nicht neidisch sein! Ich arbeite seit ~40 Jahren an und mit Drehmaschinen!

thank you

Там даже ремень старый блядь остался! И подшипники все квадратные ржавые

thanks

Gone...

It works with a SIEMENS Air Center Bearing😂

It's a Takahashi, what do you think???

Я каркас старой лавочки кое как очистил шлифмашиной, а тут быстро и легко. Действительно.

That is an old japanese lathe, so I think , threads are in imperial.
