So, you used your lathe to repair your lathe. Nice :D

@autumn5592 Год назад

I once watched a video where a guy was building a lathe, and he only got the lathe functional enough to turn something, so he could turn parts for the lathe to finish it.

@dallet40 Год назад

Нет. Он купил запчасти вместо того, чтобы просто сделать новую латунную гайку. Он ещё не знает, что на станке можно нарезать резьбу

@tinaliebe5118 Год назад

@@dallet40 that’s funny 😂❤

@mostcom Год назад

Such a fine lathe. I know that you will enjoy time spent freshening it up.

@matthewpeterson3329 Год назад

That Myford is a peach! Geoffrey Croker did a multiple part series on the complete restoration of his Myford lathe. By the time he was done, I was convinced that the Myford is an exceedingly well designed and built turning machine. If you ever have questions about that machine, use his series as a reference... very thorough disassembly and assembly material. Have fun and thanks for another great video!

@BlackBeardProjects Год назад

Indeed! I watched all the videos back as they came out and I was sold on the Myford too :)

@suicidebylifestyle9267 Год назад

Thank you!, I've had my ML7 for just over a year, I know it can perform better than it does, I just need to find easy to follow tune up videos. hopefully this does it!

@PiefacePete46 3 месяца назад

Geoffrey Croker's series is a "must watch" if Myford's are of interest to you. It has been a go-to reference for my throughout the spruce up I have been doing recently, even though mine is a different model.

Love watching highly competent people being enthusiastic about customising old beautiful machines. Joy to see them being used and improved.

@moseshorowitz4345 Год назад

Always fun to get new toys! Especially toys that make other toys.

@williamlanphar630 Год назад

Congratulations on such a fine acquisition !

@pedrotosato Год назад

Congrats for the new acquisition and I'm sure that the projects will be more amazing than ever!! Can't wait to see

@WebBelief Год назад

Got myself one of these several years ago - it's brilliant! Health to enjoy 🤠

@anthonyrivers8395 Год назад

I think the label on the machine gives it more rigidity😊

*Uses Tricorder* The circular vibration-absorption pad seems to be placed exactly at the juxtaposition of all resonant focii. Incredible insight for such an undeveloped species.

Hi we are RDG TOOLS a Model Engineering tool company based in Mytholmroyd West Yorkshire. We sell new and used tools. We also own the Myford Lathes Brand. We took over Myford around 12 years ago. Both company's are in the same building and we are open to the public. We are still building new Myford lathes and refurbished Myford lathes.

@remoc52357 Год назад

Beautiful piece of equipment.......congrats to you!

@batterymakermarkii2654 Год назад

Beautiful piece of machinery.

@vickipease6653 Год назад

Nice score! Wicked cool! I absolutely love your videos!

@pehhii Год назад

Congrats on the purchase. The lathe looks marvelous after all those years.

@keithammleter3824 Год назад

Yeah, a coat of paint and some decals will make all the worn out parts good as new! These old Myfords were intended to be used in high school metal work classes - they have all the feature and can do all the machining operations that teachers want to teach. That's about all they are good for.

@patrickmorrissey2271 Год назад

Congrats! Looks really nice.

When I saw the title, I thought it was à Myfordboy’s New vid ... when you started to talk, my brain took a few seconds to reboot hahaha ! Good catch !!

I have the exact same lathe and love it.

@plunder1956 Год назад

You got the posh version on a stand. Well done.

@MemoGGG16 Год назад

Congrats and enjoy it a lot.

@Loneman_OG Год назад

Now _that's_ a solid chunk of kit; nice find! 👍 Oh yeah, you need to re-check the accuracy _after_ applying the sticker; I believe it's supposed to add two or three zeros after the decimal place, which would make the new run-out ~0.0002mm. 😁

@BlackBeardProjects Год назад

🤣

@gaiustacitus4242 Год назад

The lathe is in very good condition to be more than 60 years old. You made a great purchase.

@jerryjohnsonii4181 Год назад

Awesome Lathe machine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@wadkin1973 Год назад

@BlackBeardProjects Год назад

I am! Thank you!!!

@sejembalm Год назад

Watchin' lathe videos. ...Sober, this time!

@peterfitzpatrick7032 Год назад

A 4 jaw independent chuck is a great accessory... that 3 jaw chuck is fairly worn ... I bought a tailstock lever attachment (easy to make) for drilling and removed the handwheel ... I never put it back on !! It looks like you have the long bed version... nice ! 🙂👍 My ML7 is pretty well worn out as I used it for making a living for 20 years, not really what they were made for... 🤷‍♂️ 😎👍☘🍺

@angelomarcolinohenriquedes2772 Год назад

Beleza pura mano, mas coisas boas vem aí com certeza. VALEU! TAMO JUNTO!

@joshtheis69 Год назад

That was cool bro Nice machine

@jamesperkins9833 Год назад

Awesome

@ultraproject2619 Год назад

I had a ML4, it was a smaller machine however the rear bed slide was of tri-angular profile and it made the bed ridgid for a small machine. I've seen some really coolstuff made on these,probably more because of the engineer rather than the machine.

@sydcrafty5498 Год назад

It's a beauty

@richardabbott5601 Год назад

Very nice lathe. I would like to learn how to use one

@haemhorrhoidian Год назад

Ohh top stuff Dude 😀 can't go wrong with an ML7,really chuffed for you,i'm in the market for one myself,i have the cash,just got to splash it!! 😀

@andypandy9931 Год назад

They are great lathes. The best mod I s adding an inverter and 3 phase motor, it gives variable speeds.

@JENNISWISS 11 месяцев назад

so great 😍✌️✌️✌️

@eatenkate Год назад

Hurray for what seems to be the first new tool in your workshop that does not need extensive restauration!

@tomswindler64 Год назад

Nice 👍👍👍😎😎😎

@robkarnosh117 Год назад

Congrats on your new, old lathe. I can't wait to see what you turn out on it. (Pun intended)

@reaper060670 5 месяцев назад

Oh man this is a beautiful machine.. I want a lathe. I think I'll be buying a mini Lathe from VEVOR bcos it's all I can afford atm. Priorities bro.. I really like this machine. My 1st time seeing this style of lathe tbh.

@MikedUp Год назад

You can use the serial number to find the exact year of manufacture, my ML7 is from 1954, great machine 👌

@andypandy9931 Год назад

Mine is 1954 as well, works well.

@Einherjar_17 Год назад

Congratulations on your new acquisition, it is in excellent condition and you will surely leave it even better! I look forward to your future work using that beautiful lathe, I send you a hug from southern Argentina.

@Danbatio Год назад

Living in a third world country (Argentina) always amazes me that you can buy an original spare part of a 70 years old machine. Almost everything I need I must build from scratch or adapt from something else. Anyway, congratulations for your new toy-tool.

@leeeroy_jenkins Год назад

Lathe'r man 😁

@GooseGosselin Год назад

So good to see your shop growing, this is the easiest restored tool in your shop! Looking forward to seeing it in use. BTW, was the correct part not available?

@BlackBeardProjects Год назад

Thank you!! Indeed, very well kept and possibly re-painted at some point! This video was pretty much just to show it to you guys! Not sure! I bought the part without checking as it was supposed to fit my model. I saw different options for metric and imperial and for different cross slide lengths but nothing as far as the side where mine was different :) Cheers!

@juhavuorinen3945 Год назад

Looks you need have new spindlebearing too

@iondragonx Год назад

Are you disposing of the old lathe? It served you well and had a great antique look.

@BlackBeardProjects Год назад

No way! :) The old is still good for big / approximative work

@chipperkeithmgb Год назад

@suicidebylifestyle9267 Год назад

Can anyone tell me where I can get those oilers?

@user-wq1hv5yj8z Год назад

Do a workshop toor

@murrayedington Год назад

1:21 much (most?) of that backlash seems to down to poor adjustment of the thrust collar, not wear in the leadscrew - you can clearly see the lost motion before the slide starts to move. No harm having changed the leadscrew, which we could see later was clearly worn but adjusting that correctly would have been a good first step. Looks like a half decent machine!

@rolandburisch9489 Год назад

So now you have a Myford, good for you. I see you loosen or tighten the chuck by jamming the low ratio gears together. Please don't do that - someone did that with my Myford and the gears stripped and I had to have new ones made. A much better method is to put a piece of flat bar on edge under the cap screw that locks the spindle gear to the shaft. It's right behind the chuck spindle bearing under the belt cover. That way there's no danger of damaging the gears. There are several RU-vid clips showing the method.

@tijaniusman6185 8 месяцев назад

what brand of lathe is this

@MechanicalCore 6 месяцев назад

It looks like the spindle is shaking when turning.

@bobjoncas2814 Год назад

...THAT NEW ADDITION SHOULD GET 'ER DONE, HAVE A GOOD ONE, KEEP SAFE...

@keithammleter3824 Год назад

It sounds like a bucket of bolts when he's running it. By the time he has bought all the parts to make it good, he will have spent enough money on this old junk that he could have bought a brand new Chinese lathe that would have:- # A better width to turning diameter ratio thus giving much better rigidity, and finish on jobs; # Proper V-ways eliminating slop and vibration; # A proper means of mounting the check instead that dangerous spindle screw thread, making reverse turning and a chuck brake impossible; # Safety interlocks that prevent common accidents.
