Making a Leblond Tailstock Feed Screw - NO COMMENTARY 

Thanks very much. And I appreciate the feedback, you know how helpful it can be. I wasn't sure if anybody would like these, just decided to take a chance 🙂

Thanks very much! I definitely appreciate you taking the time to watch them.

Thank you very much

Thank you 😁

Thank you very much!

Thanks very much. I'll be trying to do both types, little something for everyone is the goal. I'll always do my regular style commentary vids, i like to hear myself talk too much to stop... 😂

Haha thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it. I also like the sounds so I get it. And I agree 100%, we've forgotten just how vitally important the trades are to our way of life and entire society.

Thanks very much, and thank you for watching!

Thanks!

Thanks very much, and thank you for watching

Haha, agreed the pucker factor is lower threading away from the chuck. I love the inserts, got the tool holder in a box of junk I bought for $18 bucks at an auction, $18 bucks well spent I think. They are less common than the typical horizontal inserts though so a bit tougher to find.

@@hersch_tool I also have a handful of the vertical threading inserts including some Acme, also from a similar situation (i.e. cheap). Was debating about making a tool holder for them. Seemed to work well for your project so I may give it a go. Thanks for posting.

@@Dogfather66227 Sounds like a fun project, good luck. And thank you for watching!

Thanks very much, and I appreciate the feedback it really helps a lot. Cheers!

The feed shaft and lead screw are reversible. It's what enables left hand threading, as is seen in this vid.

Nope, no need. 1144 is good stuff for feed screws. Thanks for watching btw

1144 stress proof

LOL 😅 Thanks very much!

Haha, it's funny you mention that. When I was editing this footage for this version I noticed the same thing and asked myself the same question. "what the heck was I doing with the dial indicator on the carriage?" LOl, honestly I can't remember why I did that now. I like to imagine that I probably had "some" reason that made sense to me at the time, but I'll be darned if I can think of it now. Thanks for watching btw, glad to hear the positive feedback on the "no commentary" version. I know some folks would rather just see some relaxing machining, so I'll be trying to make both versions so you can pick and choose whatever you prefer.

@@hersch_tool No problem, thanks for the feedback.

There is a version with commentary and full explanation linked in the description.
