Homemade lathe part 1 

redwelter2009 well lets see your skills...any pics..?

+aubreyaub Aluminum lower quality, is not as strong as industrial, but for my purposes this is enough.

Homemade lathe machine Forget the negative stuff on here mate you have real skill with modest equipment you put a lot of so called engineers to shame here in the uk.

thought the same

+SauronsEye The other lathe looks homemade to me

+SauronsEye Or borrow a lathe. Or build a simple lathe to make a nicer more functional one. If no one ever built one without one how could there ever be one?

The only tool (other than a hammer) that can make itself.

+Golf Carts no Golf! Well its quite simple, if you dont have a lathe All you have to do is make a really simple lathe from wood that has wood gears and is powered by an other person or using a windmill, you can use the lathe to make a really bad iron lathe then you will use the iron lathe to make an other lathe that is much better then the first one you would have to repeat this until you have a lathe that you are satisfied with !! Ofcourse in modern world you dont have to do so much work because all the tools and machine are already available for so much cheaper and are also more accurate

what is a mineral cast?

I experimented with tapered roller bearings. I did not like, the surface after the cutter was not smooth

+Kani nar Hi. Write your email address, I will send you photos.

+Kenneth Scharf All details of the new lathe are made on other homemade machines.

The real man is not afraid of molten metal))

I would wear some good shoes when pouring metal, but you are a real profession and you totally know what you're doing. you are btw a real man because you made a lathe. good job, keep on working.

I wouldn't work with anyone too stupid to be afraid of molten metal.

Real men know the difference between bravery and carelessness.

Почему вы думаете что это не мои работы? Все что есть на этом канале было сделано мной.

Yes

+Headknocker The new lathe machine was manufactured using a different homemade lathe machine.

Hi. Chuck 100mm, engine 1.2 kwt

JagdtygerII machinist as well. I understand perfectly well. Maybe he’s like me and many others and has a hard time explaining and an easier time demonstrating

I was thinking the same thoughts when I was watching the video. Looks like a lot of the parts, such as washers, bushings, and gears come from motorcycle transmissions. I would have never even thought of using that. I live in Tyler Texas, and looking for stuff like that here, isn't easy. There are very few salvage or junk yards, that will let you scrounge for hardware, and those that do, charge to damn much for their crap!

Keep your eye on Craigslist for throw away cars and such. It may be cheaper for you to buy the car for parts then selection the remains to the junkyard. (Beat them at their own game)

yes

well and what, sometimes it is necessary to work so.

Заморочки це шукати той поршень по всіх розборках та металоломах. Легше самому відлити та виточити.
