I know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb forgot my login password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
It wasn't too bad and went quite fast considering the size. Just have to move the cutting disc around in the cut so the material doesn't get red hot. Thanks for watching!
Looking PRET-TY GOOD. Even if you didn’t really save money making them you have the satisfaction of knowing you made it yourself and that you used good quality bearings that will last.
Yup, for sure. The main reason for making these myself was the shipping time for the eBay v-groove wheels I looked up. They weren't pricey per say but I needed them asap.
Well that's not true as the actual bearings were purchased and inserted into the v groove roller shell. There's no way of knowing how well the inserted bearing will last as they are of a small design with tiny rollers balls within that may prove to be of high quality or may not and fail quickly under load.
I'm looking forward to video number 12! Can't wait to see what type of saw frame you're going to design. Keep up the great work! You have me on the edge of my chair waiting.
I enjoyed each video in the two previous series I watched, but with this series multiple videos are missing: #'s 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 27. The work that was completed in the missing videos is evident, but the process is missing. Oh well, on the the next video. Btw, it's all good stuff even with the missing segments. God bless.
invest in a chinese 4x6 bandsaw (100mmx150mm) one of my favorite fabrication tools! The make or buy decision is always difficult, sometimes shipping time can help you make that decision! Looking good, keep it up!
typical, I want to save a few dollars: I buy iron and with the same lathe that made the ed-209 I make the wheels for the carriage of my house. Typical lathe we all have at home, good video .___.
One of these years, when I retire, I want 15 acres of land, a little shop and a sawmill. Even I don't make anything I will enjoy milling fancy firewood.
A trick I learned from repairing Overhead Electric Crane collector systems is that the Vee wheels running on an angle iron rail glide better, smoother, and last longer with a radius midway down in the vee gap . The lower surface of the wheel is actually moving faster than the top surfaces causing excess friction. With a radius midway in the vee gap only the pinnacle of the radius contacts the surface of the angle iron rails significantly reducing the contact area. I hope I explained it well enough to understand.
Yup, you explained superbly. I noticed that in real life too. I presumed that the faster moving outer part of the contact surface on the wheel will just wear out faster and the contact area will be reduced to smaller radius. It was just easier to make'em exactly at 45 degrees in the lathe. ;) Thanks for the info and thanks for watching! ;)
Nice work man. If you make it at home, it’s definitely home made. You may be using a lathe but it’s a simple lathe and it looked like you eyeballed the tapers which is not easy to do. If you used one, I didn’t see a taper attachment. Keep it up!
I turned the compound rest on the cross slide to 45 degrees (both ways) while hand feeding the cutting edge. Thus the rugged finish but the angle was exactly 45. It's quite hard to eyeball the taper. Thanks for watching!
can i ask what brand/model/specs your lathe is and if you purchased it or inherited it good product from just a bit of steel drop and some bearings, i wonder if some sort of steel wire/brush riding infront of the wheels and clearing sawdust/debris off the angle iron right before the wheels pass over would be a cheap/easy way to improve the gliding on the head and prevent jams/derailing and the power head climbing up on sawdust higher on one side compared to the other
My father bought the lathe dirt cheap something like 15 years ago. I'm pretty much the sole user of it now. When it comes to the sawmill I will add some scrapers in front of the wheels and probably steel wire brushes on the wheels to get all of the sawdust away and off from both the rails and wheels. But we'll see.
I m making them for a living,the Angle should be more than 90 so there Is less friction and gate goes easier,wheel should touch only the top of Angle iron,not the sides
Do you have specific dimensions for certain size wheels and angle irons? Wheel od, groove width/depth, center bore, bearing id/od/width, etc. I have also seen angle irons with the L up and wheels not contacting sides. Do you think that is an acceptable solution?
Hi, Fujiar. This is actually a band saw mill I'm building right now. At first I planned on building another chain saw mill but since then I've decided to give the band saw mill a go. Just now, this very moment, I ordered the first blade for mocking things up on the saw carriage, it should arrive in a couple of days. So stay tuned, I hope you like the rest of the videos in this series too. Thanks for watching! ;)
Hi Donn. Thanks for a quick reply.Appreciated. Sorry about the wrong message about the mill.What I actually meant was the saw carriage.I would like to see a video of how U made it and what it looks like.Also something about the chainsaw mill. Some of your ideas I like and if it is ok would like to use them in the building of my own trailer if that is ok by U. Here is my e-mail: fujiar.sc@gmail .com. I want to share some of my ideas and comment on what U have built and get your comments,exchange ideas. I have a different idea on a saw carriage that will enable me to handle logs up to 1.5m in diameter and am interested in your opinion. We have standard lengths of steel in 6m lengths available.Is that the length of your trailer?
where are archaic inches on your tape measure. your tape measure looks well used, like most of my old old tapes that finally break. but to me 90mm is only understandable when used in conjunction with a 90mm mortar rd. see our military uses that and klicks, kilometers.
Mostly yes. But when I started out I got some good pointers and most of the cutting blades and drill bits from my aunts husband who was a professional machinist. And every now and then when he visits he brings along more cool stuff for the lathe.
I was holding my breath. The shop doors were opened and the outside air vented the smoke out periodically. But yes, it is definitely not healthy. ;) Thanks for watching!
Swing blade is more universal on the negative side it produce more waist saw dust, bandsaw is faster but you have to turn the log if you want clean edges
how do you guarantee that the bearings are sitting perfectly aligned? i'm assuming you had to flip the part to make the other recess for the bearing. Then assuming when you parted it and placed it flushed against the chuck, it was perpendicular to the recess. I'm doing something similar but with aluminum and after putting the bearing in on both sides, spinning on a center shaft, it has a slight wobbling effect. My bearings that go in is not entirely tight. it slides in and with a tap it will come out so i'm not sure if my ABEC 7 needs to be pressed in to eliminate the play (wobbling). The thickness of the part is roughly 1". I'm making 5 of these parts but the first came out wobbly so i'm afraid to do the others for that same reason. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
That would be the best way to ensure that it's parallel and concentric. so i will have to find a way to cut that from one side as well but the bearings that i use is 4mmx10mm so it's not going to be that easy. or maybe it is but i just don't have the tool yet. Thanks for your help.
I used old v belt automotive pulleys. Alternator on larger equipment have them this size. I work in diesel field so I had some from a recall campaign brand new in my junk drawer aka my garage. Lol wife always says get rid of this or that but within a week she sees me use. I had rubber roof material for 8 years in rafters. Made a chicken coop a few years back and used it on the wood floor to make clean up easy. She was trying to get me to throw it out the week before. Lol I never throw anything away Luke parts etc.
That's the way to do it! The only problem is finding all the good stuff when needed. Sometimes I have stuff I need in the shelf somewhere but I can't find it.
Co to z moda wciskanie łożysk na siłę, jakie to siły będą na to działały. łożysko powinno wejsć wciskane palcami, potem przy wymianie łożysk niszczymy kółko. Słaby jesteś tokarz.
Вообщето тут допущена грубая конструктивная ошибка...должна быть ещё втулка распирающая внутрении обоймы подшипников...так что лови дизлайк конструктор
Чувак, с таким знанием английского ты бы лучше в посольство пошел работать, или еще куда, видео наверняка снято в нашем Залупьевске, не поверю что такие токаря есть еще где нибудь
