Ideally you don’t wanna be any more than five times the diameter of your piece from the face your chuck when doing a cut. The higher RPM a big difference though. And I’m very impressed modifications you made. Good job! 👍

OK this is the channel I've been looking for. Good stuff.

you are awesome

nice video

That's very impressive cutting steel at the end, but it still looks like the bearings on the new headstock are the weak-spot. Unfortunately, there will always be flex/wiggle with ball bearings (even "deep groove" ones) and the only real cure is replacement with taper roller bearings, but the problem is finding these bearing in a size to be a straight "drop in" to the headstock. Some of the flex could be mitigated by using the tailstock to support the end of your material, but I'm not so sure that the standard tailstock is rigid enough to be of much use.

I am satisfied with the rigidity of the spindle. The next improvement would be the base. Since it is made of aluminum, I feel the limit. The strength of the tailstock is very low.

Not suer if you've thought about it, but If I were you, I'd seriously consider producing these upgrades as a kit. Pre-ordered Ali-Express parts included. There are enough of us with these little machines We'd pay you good money for the kit!

Thank you for your advice. I also think about what you say. But selling things is a bit difficult in my current situation. But if I sold a completely modification kit for the machine, how much will pay for it specifically ?

The next video I release will answer your request. I'm about to take this lathe apart and reveal the details. First, I'll answer your question briefly. There is a 9mm steel plate attached under the original bed. The steel plate and the bed are bolted together securely. The base of the head is also attached to the plate with 4-M6 bolts. The bed and headstock base are also bolted .

I know this video is old, but I was wondering about buying one of these and wanted to know if one of these cheap lathes was worth it. I would like to try to make small engines (really small) is this accurate enough to use for that, could it be made to? (I have no experience with this stuff). Thanks for answering👍 (If you did)

@a-cnc-f

I understand how you feel. I, too, wanted a lathe that was inexpensive and could process metal. It would be quite difficult to use the lathe in the video to make an engine. As a result, I built another lathe. I think a lathe of this size would be able to make the parts to make a small engine. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nJ2Bq7iPhLedh9I.html

That's cool. What is the maximum diameter of the workpiece that can be clamped into the 63 chuck? Can the 895 motor handle large diameters of aluminium, e.g. 40-50mm. Thank you!

Aqui é Rubens Fortes do Brasil, gostaria de saber porque você corta a base com 100mm e onde você usa, no vídeo não aparece onde você usa. Outra coisa, você tem um desenho/ croqui da montagem do motor 895 e as polias usadas também outro motor que vc põe em ao lado dele. Grande abraço e parabéns pelo alteração, meu torno chega este mês.

Reason for cutting the base 1) If a chuck larger than STD Chuck is installed, it will interfere with the base. 2) To replace the base with an iron block to make the headstock tough.
