    I really like this video because I created a home-made lathe and I was having trouble turning my wood on it, so I cam with the exact same concept (not execution), except I had interchangable 3D printed adapters that were mounted on the threaded rod I was using as the shaft and center.

    at 8:36 another option is to use tapered shank or machine drills (in a collet) directly in the quill, negating the room a chuck takes up, also it is a very rigid way of mounting a drill.

    Great, tool I have something similar for working with a dead center with the deeper of my chucks still on the machine, but like others have said. If you can’t trust your spindle MT, then fix your spindle’s taper! Having a working spindle taper is essential for basic machine alignment and use. This is a basic aspect of lathe maintenance being able to repair burrs and if necessary re-cut and grind the spindle taper, is a must have capacity. Short of my desktop/benchtop scale lathes at home, that I have owned for 30+ years and managed to keep their tapers pristine (needing nothing more than a light touchup lapping), I have done it on every machine I have ever owned or used professionally at least once, usually due to a burr forming due to someone (sometimes me, more often someone else on shared lab machines) not cleaning the bore before seating a taper tool. This happens, even on $50K+ Schaublin tool room lathes, used for aerospace tool room work on flight spacecraft components, some idiot (not me in that case) will be careless and put a burr in the spindle bore. Work needs to get done in spite of it, so you spend the 20 minutes to fix it, so you can get your work done, not 2 hours making a workaround that also leaves the problem there. It’s not hard to diagnose and fix, and could have been done in a fraction of the time necessary to make the tool. Print and fix your taper, print and check your taper tools, fix them if necessary too. But the tool is interesting. Good work.

    Interesting tool - one question though - if you made if to fit a 5C collet, why not do all the subsequent operations holding it in the collet....? Seems easier than the 6-Jaw...

  • @nbrworks

    Hi, I don't have a particular good reason other than convenience. The 6 jaw was already on the lathe, so I used it. At 4:06 the part was flipped and I machined the register for the spring, that does't need to be concentric to the rest of the part (there's a gap to the outer piece), so I didn't even try to indicate it, if I remember well. Then I indicated it to machine the outer piece at 13:41 (just for the finishing pass, to get the run out closer to the steel body). I had a couple of tenths of runout (0.0001/0.0003"), which is as accurate as I can probably get with the 5C. So I went ahead and didn't touch it until I finished all operations. In the future, as long as the center is recut in place, there's no need to worry with the runout in the main body, so I can use the 3 jaw, the 6 jaw or the 5C (whatever is already on the lathe). I hope this makes sense. Thanks

    By my abrasive wheel I have several thin pieces of aluminum, (0.100-0.250"), w/ various loose fit fastener holes drilled towards the edge. When I need to chamfer a fastener, I put it in the appro hole, then spin it w/ an allen socket or a 6-point socket, depending on whether it's a socket or hex head. I find the little piece of aluminum lets my fingernails get beyond the nail beds & keeps my fingerprints from being sanded off. Give it a try. If I need to taper or dog point a fastener, I use a cordless drill to spin it in the drilled plate; I get much more control than w/ a drill alone.

    You know you can't have too many tools, jigs, fixtures and chucks but have you ever considered repairing your Morse Taper? This is a classic example of over engineering but I love it. I imagine that if I had many between centers jobs with a small square end I'd be happy I had this tool on hand. Let's face it. There's no greater satisfaction than digging out an old (had to have it back when) idea years later. As always, I thank you for letting me visit your shop. Wakodahatchee Chris

    Hi Chris. That's a good question, thank you for asking. Yes, I have designed in Fusion 360 a complete toolpost grinder, including a second (longer) spindle for the morse taper job (because I don't think I can buy a grinder with an adequate size for my lathe). I ordered the stock to start with it, but then stuff got it in the way and I lost momentum - I haven't started yet, but I might revisit that in the next months. This tool in the video took some hours to make, that's true, but worked well and I can continue to use it until I got the taper fixed. Thanks!
