Making wheel hubs on my 1I611P lathe -Part 1- 

Haha :-D! I also try to stock multiple tools and other important items to make chances of running into one better, but it seems to work with me neither!

Sure I'm happy, thanks!!

I realize Im kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good website to watch new tv shows online?

@Roy Kylan i use Flixzone. You can find it on google :)

@Waylon Izaiah Yup, I've been using FlixZone for months myself :D

@Waylon Izaiah Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :) I really appreciate it!

@Roy Kylan glad I could help :)

What kind of problems did the cold temp cause? How cold was there?

sunppaa I can tell you the costliest one was with a CNC lathe used for production work, and it happened more than once! A failure in a seal in the turret caused coolant to leak into the hydraulic circuit. It took almost an entire week to get the lathe going the first time it happened. As for temperatures, they were well below freezing.

douro20 Ouch... Maybe it is a good investement to keep the shop warm compared to that other option!

Thanks! I've been thinking about that too! I got some good idea for that on my Latvian trips. When I have the most critical things ready, I will put some effort on an oil burner!

+Micscience The shop space was nice but too small for all of the machines. The lathe is awesome! I'm sure you can find similar machines where you are.

Good to hear! I suggest not to try out those words if you visit Finland :-).

Thank you!! I wish we had snow too! It's not a direct read, so one mill removes two off diameter. No problem with that but I messed up in the beginning and after that thought a full turn was 2/4mm and not 3/6. Took me until the ond of the vid to figure that out even though my bells should have been ringing much before that.

If you mean this space its actually the old shop now :-). You can see the new shop (my basement) in tbe newer vids. But thanks anyways!!

Ok i will check it out thanks

Yeah. For its size capability this is a mighty powerful and robust lathe. Also its dead accurate!

I'll have to buy me a strong metric lathe someday. The perfect three for me would be: A hardringe toolroom dovetail lathe (super precision); some sort of medium swing, but strong metric lathe; and a very large, very heavy duty old Monarch for the big work. One can dream!

sunppaa

+Jan Visser I actually remachined the bottom of the tool post because of warping. It's now sitting on the indexing tooth and the whole base of the toolpost will not touch the compund. Thats why chips can get under there but the post is not sitting on the chips.

+Ramekenas Yeah! Trying my best ;-)!

Yeah! Still getting to know it. I would die for a manual in any other language than Russian!!

Yeah, glasses like sneaking! Among with calipers and the most needed wrenches. I have another piece like this waiting. The rough hub is now being test-fit and I will finish it next week and also make the other hub similar to it. The part that I messed up will most probably be faced off anyways to get the rim closer. The idea was to make the hub wide enough at first so the 15" rim would fit (not touching the large Brembo 4-pot caliper) for sure, and then bring it closer. I will edit the second part today or tomorrow, it will actaully have some success in it..

Pavel Sergeyev думаю что ето скорее ранняя зарубежная версия 1И611 с которой нашы и слизали ижак

Григорий Потёмкин в кадр попадают шильдики, станок наш

Pavel Sergeyev только сейчас заметил на 12 минуте 51 с четко видно что иж 1И611П

их поставляли в гдр раньше, походу машинка оттуда.

+juhmura1 Kyllä noita on sattunu useamminkin ja aina jurppii muttei silti mitään tunnu oppivan. Virheistä vihastuu vai miten se sanonta meni :P!

Happens to me quite often, but it took longer than usual this time because I had my hat on so it could not feel the glasses on my head :-). Full turn is 3mm/side and 6mm off diameter.

that's quite a cut. how big is the motor? (HP or kW i mean, not size)

sharp x 3kW 1400rpm. 2,4mm (4,8mm off diameter) was the biggest cut it would take. A full turn of 3mm makes it stall. I just first though I took a full turn with success but I actually only took 2/3 of a turn. After that I still thought a full turn was 2mm and wondered why it would not take a full turn anymore :-).

I tightened a piece in the jaws "inner notch" so that I was able to face the outer part. Jaws are hardened but a carbide tool with slow rpm can cut them.

My country was never a part of the Soviet union. I just think their flag was really cool. Plus they made awesome machines there :). So no political reasons, I just like how it looks!

Thats a good enough reason.

+sunppaa my country was under the soviet rule and we burned the flags... dude really those times were bad times and that flag symbolizes pretty bad things

+chronokokos I can very well believe you. I'm sure the flag provokes a lot of people so I will consider not presenting it in my new shop. I can have no idea what it really was like but I've heard many stories...

sunppaa I live 150 km from Trencin (TOS Trencin lathe) ;) so i'm from the TOS land ;)

+Jamie Buckley Exactly. Too much stuff&not enough storage space. The new shop will be different.

Yes I noticed that too he also stuck his hands in very close proximity to Turning Chuck and also has long baggy sweater on with long baggy sleeves
