Turning Feed Rollers on a Metal Lathe

As part of the Vance Planer/Matcher restoration, here is what I had to do to refurbish a set of feed rollers on our Lodge & Shipley lathe. Includes turning two bearing journals to the correct diameter and re-surfacing the cast iron rollers. Also show how I use a indicator to true up a shaft in a four jaw chuck.

Great job Keith One of the things I like about your videos is that you explain the problems encountered and ways to correct them. This makes it much better for us trying to get up to speed on machining Thanks Bill

@wnebergall 10 лет назад

You are so right And it helps to hear problems and solutions of other's to provide reference for correction

@JohnBare747 10 лет назад

Rolling along, that cleaned up nicely. Saving an old rusty machine is a worthy project, thanks for the videos showing your good work to bring that bad boy back to life.

I just want to say thank you for you fine work as a machinist and an instructor. I'm teaching myself ( with your help and others ) how to work with lathes and mills. So your quality of craftsmanship, knowledge, and details, are helping me enormously. So thank you very much! Sincerely Martin.

Does anyone else find watching a rusted and pitted chunk of iron, being turned to a smooth, shiny finish, cathartic?

@robertbamford8266 3 года назад

Watching this from 6 years ago. Interesting to see the evolution in your video technique. Same informative, teaching style. I can imagine a machinist in 2320 (or so) hopefully noticing the different size bushings and journals. With a minimum of expletives. Although some machine will probably automatically measure and accommodate the variation.

I enjoy watching an old lathe turning a part that old Thanks for showing us the work you do Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

@2007markb 10 лет назад

Merry christmas! Cant wait to see whats in store in the new year

@Abom79 10 лет назад

Nice work Keith! Correct me if I'm wrong but I think we call our highs and lows the opposite.

@Abom79 10 лет назад

I agree with you Keith. I hope I didn't make it sound your way was wrong. We all have our own techniques that work for us. Keep up the good work!!

Hi Keith, Thanks for another nice video. Merry Christmas.

Thanks for another great video!

Found it funny while you were doing the second journal cut you said it was a left hand tool then you printed on the screen that it was a right hand, when in fact it was actually a left hand tool, the difference is like looking at your pair of hands cupped together the cutting edge is your fingertips, thus it seems backwards but thats what it is.

@fourwheeldrivenut 7 лет назад

Keith just an idea but see if you can use the wife's old vacuume cleaner when your doing cast iron and use the fine nozzle to suck the chips up as there coming off the tool some will not be sucked up but most will be sucked up and you don't have as big of a mess to clean up. I don't recommend you use her new one unless you like sleeping out at the museum. or buy her a new one so you can have the old one. hehe

@aserta 10 лет назад

Seeing these so rusty, something occurred to me. The museum should have a seamstress make these rollers a sleeve. A simple zip on sleeve to keep them protected for when the machine is not in use. Of course the machine never had such thing initially but nowadays the higher end of the market does provide covers for the critical surfaces. It would be a pity if the surface got pitted up again.

@aserta 10 лет назад

***** I have noticed that, but it's not surprising to me, they used and still use cast iron in man hole covers. If that's not the mother of all rusty places i don't know what is. :)

@ModMINI 10 лет назад

Hey, stop complaining about the part being out of balance! Just turn the inside of the part as well until it is balanced! I know you can figure out how to do that :-)

@BedsitBob 4 года назад

I think you got your high and low spots (jaws) back to front.

@EIBBOR2654 10 лет назад

Hi Keith, I was wondering why you didn't turn these parts between centers. If both ends have center holes like you said in the video, I would have thought that was the way it was turned originally. Don't get me wrong I'm not criticizing as there are many ways to do a job and there was nothing wrong your set up. I just thought it would have been an easier set up and all you would have had to do was flip the part so the other end was in the live center or use another drive dog to cut the other shaft. I've had to do many jobs that called for very close tolerances and concentricity and the best way to do that was between centers. Good videos and still love to see other ways people come up with ways to set up work and solve problems. If you get a chance get back to me as I'd like to hear your thoughts.

@jonka1 7 лет назад

Judging by how seriously corroded the stub end of the shaft is in the chuck, I'm assuming the centre was so degraded that it was useless. I've seen many situations like this on very old machinery. Keith was using the most reliable method.

@JRo250 10 лет назад

Hey Keith, another good video. Just a knit: have you noticed most of your recent videos have audio only on the left side? My guess is that your editing program is only picking up one of the two channels.

@stevengrotte2987 7 лет назад

re: the chips would a magnet in a plastic bag help?

@b3nsb3nz 10 лет назад

So will this machine be used when the restoration is done, or does it just go into the museum and sit?

@aserta 10 лет назад

Is there a point to the holes? Or are those part of the hollow casting technique?

@aserta 10 лет назад

***** Figured as much. Thanks for answering.

@stevengrotte2987 7 лет назад

I see a lot of rust on the roller, is it necessary to clean up the roller??

@stevengrotte2987 7 лет назад

You just answered my question-----if I had waited two minutes I would not have had to ask.

@oxfd611 8 лет назад

I noticed that when you were turning the bigger part of the feed roller that you were creating a lot of rust dust. Do you or can you hook up a vacuum system much like a wooden leave?

@VintageMachinery 8 лет назад

+Michael Poulin I am sure you could rig something like that up if you wanted to.

@jonka1 7 лет назад

@29:30 as you start the lathe it can be seen that the end of the roller nearest the chuck look to be running true whereas the other end is way out. This shows that the runout is caused by an untrue centre. Why could you not work this out and show your viewers how to correct it rather than deal with it by removing lots of metal? I thought you said you were a time served engineer. The view @30:13 shows absolutely that the chuck end was true to start with. Why are you passing your confusion off as an example to your viewers?

@jonka1 7 лет назад

@15:00 the only way the end of the shaft can be running out by 15 thou is if the centre hole is not true. Bend on the shaft cannot cause run out at the very end. There may also be some bending issues but that would be a separate consideration This should be obvious to you and any half decent engineer. Why are you misleading your viewers in an attempt to gloss over your own confusion?
