Nice looking items - interesting how the 303 heats up so fast - something for me to remember.

I was taking agressive cuts so was mindful of the temperature when machining a piece with a sleeve already secured in it

Great video Rich. Those ends look like deadly projectiles!!! Thank you for sharing. Joe

Just a thought if you had turned the shaft diameter down say .250 behind the point and put a slight radius on the point shoulder or a raised collar even it will help in creating a hole like a tile probe. Of course no bigger than these are and using .500 conduit an the short distance it might no even matter depends on how they pull them back assembled or unassembled. Still nice machining!

Thanks, I was real pleased with the machining. I have other ideas on how to improve them as well but only did as much as the customer originally called for....but will discuss my upgrades with him when he picks them up tomorrow

Never worry about bent. It is as it is and with what this tool is going to go through it will make zero difference aside from pissing you off bud.Don't forget that steels are still a fluid medium. You are making great step by step videos my friend. Just remember that stainless can turn to hard rubber in a moment. Keep it well lubed with Rapid Tap. After 45 years it is still my savior .Leaves a great finish too. Having air blowing down the bore will really help when the bar is in tight tike that too. Brake cleaner still leaves a film that needs to be washed with hot soapy water. May I suggest an electrical parts cleaner. No residue and about the same price. Busted taps suck. Great to see you got it out ok ! I would love to see the taper attachment. I am sure that you can modify it to go steeper. All in all you pat your back on this one my friend !

Thanks Dean, your comments and suggestions will do nothing but help me. I will do another vid on the taper attachment and yes, I can modify it for a steeper angle but 10-15 degrees is kinda pushing it me thinks....if it binds....its a bad day 😂 As always, thanks for watching! ~ Richard

Yer shining my friend but always remember 3 set screws and don't let stainless cut dry. That stuff will pile up long before you hear it coming. Besides that it makes for more accurate cuts bud.

Dean, your suggestions do not go unnoticed my friend. I can use all the knowledge I can soak up from those more experienced in this trade~ Richard

I think these things turned out great! I wanted to tell you after the first half about pipe couplers, what you referred to as "sleeves", and the fact the pipe threads are tapered as with all pipe threads. If I were doing this project I would put the shortened end of the coupler into the hole leaving the full length of thread in the outer end. This probably is not necessary but would make me feel better having the full length of thread available where their pipe would be inserted. I keep looking at your Atlas for what modifications you have done, you see I also have an Atlas Lathe, a TH54, quick change, including most all the attachments including the taper attachment which I like you have yet to use.

Yessir, many different ways to approach this one. I didnt know you had an Atlas 54, great Lathes IMO. I think you may have noticed I quieted mine down a bunch compared to prior vids. It made editing video a pleasure :)

Atlas's are notorius for being loud....some models more than others....Mainly from slop on the gears

The excess should not hurt the threads as long as you don't screw anything into it before you blow it/clean it out.

Very pretty. Putting the point on could you not use a tool with the cutting angle you wanted and run up with each cut then used the compound to finish cut? Saves wearing out your wrists. Great job. 👍

@MakinSumthinFromNuthin

Thanks! If I had a more rigid machine I could have done it that way, mine doesnt like plunging into work from the side, not even thin parting tools. If I want to see large lathes work I watch your channel 😊

Do the set screws penetrate the threaded sleeve? I assume yes otherwise it would've been easier to drill/tap a thru hole before loctiting the sleeve.

@MakinSumthinFromNuthin

6 жыл бұрын

Yes Steve the set screws penetrate the sleeve as I tapped thru the entire part so we could get a firm grip on the sleeve with the setscrews which will also be Loctite'd in place

Please tell us in your future videos what tooling is being used. Cobalt? Carbide? HSS?

I'll try and remember to do so, hope you enjoyed the project

A smooth cone is not the best way to get it through the ground. Put on a weld bead from a an inch behind the tip to the base of the cone and smooth it in. The small "bump" will help pushing the dirt and stones away while rotating and advancing. It made a huge difference in hard or stony ground for me.

I am no engineer but your comment makes sense. I just made what was asked of me. Will see how she holds up :)

FYI Drilling is a much much higher MMR than boring in fact it's one of the highest. good job

I know what you mean. You can grind an excellent tip on a drill on a regular bench grinder witha lil practice. After you get your pilot hole you can step on up to the big drill as long as it has good edges and pilot is larger than the web of the next one to save on drill changes. Best of luck.
