In an age where everything is drawn on a computer, most of your technical drawings look to be hand produced on paper by someone sitting at a drafting table. That's cool, and dare i say, a lost art! If i'm wrong, well that's cool too. Interesting work either way!!👍

i went to school at a time where they didnt have cad and cam classes yet at every school, only the big city ones. so i got stuck with drafting and blueprint classes, and when i got out of school most business already started using cad and cam so i was kinda sol and havent used my drafting pencils since school like 20 years ago lol

I mean, with the overhead cranes it's pretty simple and most shafts have centers on both ends and I also have a center in the spindle ,so basically I'm working between centers.

This is exactly what I do. CNC lathe, manual toolpost. Manual tool change. Seems archaic, but the other tools never get in the way, so in some ways you can do more types of cuts. My lath is 14.75” over the saddle, 90” or so long (don’t quite remember the exact length).

I do the same thing at my job. I use the same lathe as him just it is 315" long. And we have an old enco tool post on it. So we can change our cutting tools like a dove post but we can also move them in a arch every 9 degrees.

Why wasn't it done as a shaft with a keyway to fix the roller to it!? Wouldn't that drastically reduce cycle time and waste of material? Are there stability concerns?

How long are your typical cycle times for the shafts you usually do? Do you ever have problems with material flexing/bowing when removing a lot of material? If so how do you deal with that

@captcarlos

2 жыл бұрын

If you notice Chris will usually rough all surfaces leaving enough material for two finish passes. Which allows fine tuning of the final pass to size and surface finish. This time the flame hardening was between roughing and finishing which probably ment he left a bit more on in case.. I'm sure he will tell us...

I run the same lathe as him but longer and my cycle times can be anywhere from 10 minutes to 5 days. Depends on the shaft sizes as he said. We do 2inch diameter shafts and up to 20 inch diameter blanks.

I don't really pick my drawings, as long as I don't have to guess any dimensions cause the drawing was photocopied 100 times I'm happy. I'm only trying to use music where there is no sound like hyperlapse or photos. 4:16 it's the hyperlapse video, no editing done. It has something to do with the camera speed or something 🤔 Yeah, I still got 10 of them and I would like to keep it that way 😂 That was a short piece so no chatter problems. Maybe SHARS won't last as long as some of the expensive brands but they work OK. I don't use them for measuring tools but other things are fine. It's a constant surface speed. Yeah, I'm proud of what I do some might like it, some don't, but that's what I do and that's how I do it. People like it, awesome. If they don't I'm not gonna cry over it.
