Timo made bid on internet auction from another milling machine and this time he got even better deal. The machine is nice and there is HUGE collection of tools.
"Electricity is extremely dangerous. You have to be familiar with two things... Electric shock and electricity bill. Electricity bill is the worse one." 😂😂😂
he makes all the sense, dro is just a readout, it is passive, it just shows position, control is active and can do things, that being said, this might be something in between - called "active dro", which basically stops feed motor at predetermined position (entered by the operator), it cannot activate an axis, only stop it
Very nice buy Timo! Those tools alone are worth it almost! Lauri tell Anni that all that stuff is good stuff. No junk there that I can see. I am the same way with electronic test equipment. I now have good collection of very useful equipment!
In the 80’s, I worked for a year in a machine shop before going to University. As literally the least and last of the crew, I did all the sweeping, cleaning, coolant mixing and refills, plus shipping/receiving, driving the delivery truck, and running to the corner shop for cigarettes and tooling inserts for the machinists… who got to sit on their lazy butts as most of the machines were CNC even then, and they were mostly there to feed pre-cut blanks into the machines. Tidying up the shop and keeping things organized was worse than looking after toddlers. Toddlers that smoked… ;)
Ima pretengineer, you a kid. Do as i says! Yeah ive gotten plenty of that in my life. Ive even gotten to the point of saying "where on my resume or job title does it say, 'bitch?'" Something about making a bigger mess to leave a job half done because you have to run out to do someone elses job just rubs you wrong way.
What a score! 40 taper? That’s a whole ton of tools, oh my. Happy days! Edit: I’ve got the same drawbar on my Pinnacle, it leaks air :( time to get my small lathe hat on and make some PTFE inserts for the ball valves.
Lauri: We are investing in our business! Anni: Stop buying useless stuff! Hahahaha! There aren't many family-owned workshops in Finland as equipped as yours.
Next time you need to get something so heavy out of your trailer, leave room in front of the van then have the forklift lift the item and lastly, move the van forward. That way the fork lift will not have to move and the item will be stable.
yep and you need 2 persons to comunicate both ends of setup or radio, whole set is easilly 12 meters long and driver in front sees a shit of what is going on in back and in case something catches a trailer your path of comunicantion is totally fukedup, also power transmission on a forklift allows for more precise movement than truckeven if truck is equiped with reductor.... what im trying to say - it makes more problems than it solves...
I want a mill and Lathe soo bad, but they are way too expansive. I worked with CNCˋs and konventional machines for years. Someday my workshop will be equipped with one. ☹️ Big thanks for all the crazy videos from a Fan in Germany, i watch it since day one. 😁👍
Looks like an old MAHO universal we used to sell in the US. The MAHO has a horizontal spindle behind the the orange vertical head. Can’t tell from your video if Timo’s new toy has similar functionality.
There is a serial interface. Connect it to a machine with Mach 3 running. This seems to be an excellent bang for your bucks. So much expensive tools..... great, I'm interested to see more of it!
Good buy, the tooling would be worth more than 4k! The chocolate one is awesome. I have an idea for tool like extruder 5 million but with bursting disk in the side instead of hose at the bottom. Fill with bananas or something and press till disk bursts. Or insert plates with holes in it so your can make worms in direction of camera. I can send a sketch if not sure what I mean
This is a great video! I really like this type of content. I am older then your demographic viewer. But would really like you to do a video on your Dad maybe a large project in the shop that he is working on.
I agree. Timo is a wonderful character but we've only seen him a few short times. He has always been funny though. Maybe Timo has some Finnish life hacks he can share with the world.
It said Baud on the screen so somewhere there is an rs232 serial port to connect to a late 80s or early 90s computer and run some kind of DOS based CAD/CNC program.
That's your money's worth just in tooling, also that DRO looks like the same one Robin Renzetti uses, he's got a great video about a bunch of nice tricks it has.
do you have a manual for it.. does it show the control panel pattern.. perhaps you could scale and print that on some adhesive glossy paper and stick it to the control panel.. unless you could put up a sized drawing and have somebody print you a vinyl decal for the button control surface. the manufacturer might have a new control panel deck that has the proper screen printing already. if you have a pantograph.. you could copy the manual page directly into the aluminum surface so it stays ..
Se on semmonen mestari ostaan kaikkee turhaa ja vähemmän turhaa lelua, ettei pieni tosikaan. Joskus se osti sellasen kahvikoneen mitä käytetään kahviloissa, mut sitä ei yllättäen oo koskaan käytetty koska siihen tarvis 16 am pistoke ja oma vesi-ja viemäriliitäntä. 😂
i am tempted to start re selling machines etc on the uk market just as a side business, i know very little about machining but am interested enough to give it a go, as you are a professional what items should i be looking at for small retail profits aimed at hobby machinest?
Hey, I have 1mm end mills and drills. But the biggest I have is a 20mm collet with a 32mm cutter. And with that quite slow. That little machine of yours is about 50 times bigger!
The forklift part gave me anxiety. As the mill was pulled out of the trailer and it just kept getting longer and longer, all while looking like it was sitting on just the tips of the lifting arms. Hnnggg... Good thing you guys know what you are doing. Though, a follow up broken milling machine repair video would have been interesting.
The V.24-settings on the mystery panel are a serial port (think like in1990's internet modem connections). Try hook that port up to a computer, and by some even-more-mysterious software, make the mill have it's own twitter feed. =)
Didn't expect to see a Chinese lathe in there...but they're still good machines, especially the ones which are Mazak clones like the JFMT lathes. The tool you are talking about at 9:00 is called a speeder...about 1000 Euro for one of these if I'm not mistaken.
