Joe, if I did not see this myself, I would not believe it.

How in the world can there be 24 people who gave this YT a thumbs down? I mean, for crying out loud, what could they have found offensive, irksome, or a waste of time? This operation was more, pure magic. Thank you again, Joe.

There are losers out there, thumb down to everything. It's them, not the video.

I used to encounter parts similar to this one and I would machine the inside first then fill with Cerrosafe a Bismuth alloy which expands to the bore and then I would machine the outside diameter to size. Finally, I melted the Bismuth alloy from the bore and then I had a very accurate and thin walled part with no chatter or other anomalies.

Damn Joe! I LEARN more watching your stuff than any other source. Please keep it up and keep explaining the why’s and not just the results! Btw, you should sincerely consider doing a machining 101 kind of dvd set. I’d get in line in the cold and rain to buy it.

Damn, man! I passed off a job about two weeks ago, to another guy, after getting down to my last pass and it slung out of the chuck. It was almost the exact same set up, same material and everything. I got so mad when I scrapped it I gave it to another guy. Man I wish to god I had seen this before they gave me that thing! Was one of the most frustrating days of my career. BUT, anyhoo, awesome video as usual, too bad I was late on watching it.

You must be my guardian angel. You are consistently teaching me just what I need to know right when I need to know it. ...With almost the exact same dimensions.

Fresh out of the Marines in 1969, I worked for a Czechoslovakian owned job shop in Boulder, Colorado. They had a job come in, super thin wall and they figured it out. I remember them talking about it, “You can’t sneak up on it, you just have to go for it !!” I think the customer was Coors Porcelain and the material was brass.

Thanks Joe, I know this is an older video but just want to say I am a hobbyist that enjoys making stationary engines. Your channel has taught me many helpful things. Love all the tips on how to make small pieces! I am only KZread trained but your video's make me feel like I am in a classroom!

Great lesson! Joe thank you for passing on your experience. Clearly, logically organized explanations. To the point and on time like any excellent machinist exp

Hi Joe, I do a lot of machining Acetal. Great to see many of my techniques are shared by an expert and even greater to learn new techniques. I make go/nogo gauges for measuring production parts due to the difficulty of micing thin-walled parts. I use HSS mostly but I recently busted another small HSS boring tool. So I thought why not try grinding an old 3/16 solid carbide endmill. OMG, it's great. I take heavier cuts than ever and I can't imagine ever busting this little bugga. Yeah ok, I ain't holding my breath LOL.

Thank you so much for what you do and the time you put out to help all of us.

Thanks Joe. Very useful technique for making thin walled displaced cylinders in Stirling engine models. Keep up the good work.

Thank you Joe, you are an inspiration. You are not only demonstrating how, but also explaining the reasons in such a pedagogical way in many of your videos. Greetings from Sweden.

I used this technique to make a part with a .020" wall thickness and it worked excellent. As always thanks for the great informative video.

Been machining a while and learned something new. thank you.

Good shop class. Looking forward to the thin parts video later today.

We used to call this using the material as its own fixture. Works great. Neat episode, Joe, as usual!

I've been in customs and prototype my entire career. I enjoy the challenge of unusual part geometry in both the machining and fixturing. So far, so good. Thanks for watching.

I wish I could see the same demo, but this time using hot rolled steel!! Great video and great lesson.

Awesome Joe!!! Did a job a few months ago, and if I had seen this before I did it, it would have saved time. The trick is pure common sense. Get the bore in, maybe do a test cut to establisish your OD cutter... And go for it while you still have rigid stock. Love it!~ Thanks Joe!!!!

That Joe was impressive! I rather hope I don't need to make quite that thin a wall! Keep the great vids coming .:) Thank you.

What an awesome demonstration! I need to make just such a part, and this will help immensely! Thanks again, Joe.

Thanks Joe, always enjoy your videos. I drilled a 4" plus hole 1/8" bore in a 3/16" piece of 303 stainless. I used a Royal 5C collet in an Austrian lathe.

Very impressive! Your thinking behind the process makes a whole lot of sense. It's obvious after you demonstrate it. I was wondering about making lens shades and adapters. Now I know.

That was fantastic. I've been looking for a way to make a thin custom bushing. Kudos! from another seventy-something.

That was awesome Joe! Thanks for the great tip.

Excellent, Joe.

I have been following most of the machining channels on KZread for the past 5 years, and I can say without a doubt that I've learned more from you than all the others combined. This video helped me to solve a problem I've fought for a long time. Thanks and keep up the good work!

I needed this video two years ago. I successfully made the part but there were many failures to get one part successfully. log this in my bag of tricks thanks for another great video!

Another great video, Joe. Thanks.

Joe I can't wait to try this. I have a motor coupler in need of a.0125 sleeve. Is gotta be stainless 304 ( food). Thanks for another video expertly presented, giving us the confidence to jump in the deep end of the pool. I've agonized about how to approach this for days. Now I'll look like a hero. Cheers!

Great to have your videos to educate those that are hobbiest like myself but love the trade. I used your guidance to machine a brass sleeve for the tailstock on my jewelers lathe. Almost the same wall thickness of .010”. It worked great! The draw in bar was about .010” smaller than the tail stock casting and I was considering boring it out for a meatier bushing. The problem was it’s hard for me to justify modifying such an iconic old lathe. So I figured I’d give this a try and see if it last. It will allow me to use the tailstock with a small precision as a drill chuck and keep center as I feed it in. Btw, I tried to sneak up on the final size and it didn’t work to your point. So awesome that your share your skills and knowledge. Truly grateful 🙏 Have a blessed new year Joe!

Wonderful video, I had planned on doing multiple spring passes, but your video clearly demonstrates why that would likely be impossible, thank you for sharing this.

As always, I love watching these videos. Like any good instructor, you always teach other details as you are progressing toward the main point. Besides a cool thin wall turning technique, I also learned the simple way to line up my parting tool with the end of the work, using the scale to feel for the edge. I have always used a magnifier to do this visually, but I will try your way next time.

A really great technique, clearly explained and demonstrated (as always!). Thanks very much.

Thanks for a great technique. I had a part similar to the one you made that gave me fits. Now I know how to do it. Sure appreciate all the great tips you share. Craig

Just did this to make a 6mm ID /.250" OD bushing in brass for an encoder pulley. The ID was a tad small, but after I split the tube, it fit great :) THANKS FOR THIS GREAT VIDEO!

That was amazing! Great tip joe 👍

Awesome vid! Enjoying your videos immensely, very solid techniques and advice. Thanks for all you do!

Awesome stuff Joe. I've done this in brass, works a treat. Will have to try it out on some nylon, cheers.

Love it! I wouldn't have thought of doing this until I saw the video.

Nice video. Learned this technique from a tool maker I worked with years ago but haven't had to put it to use in quite some time. We broke a punch from a progressive die that had a point diameter in the .075" range by about 1" long. We had a blank in the spare drawer but the tip needed to go from 3/16" dia down to .075" for the 1" length. Using a spin fixture and surface grinder, he took the diameter of that punch (which was M-2 hardened to 61/63 RC) down in one pass. Ended up with just a little taper from the grinding wheel breaking down, but got the die back running.

Great tip on the application of very thin parts I really enjoy learning your tips and tricks , from your years of experience a lot of knowledge there 👍 Thanks joe👍

Great trick ! I would indeed think to creep up to it... also the pilot stopping for the chuck ! thanks for sharing !

That first plunge with the drill! So satisfying. Awesome technique man. Love the videos.

Very helpful video Joe. Thanks as always!

Wowzers! Great technique. Quite impressive procedure. Another super video!

AS usual I learned something... Thanks for your Videos Joe...

Smart machining as usual. The other day during lunch I made a small tube for an elderly neighbor to thread line through his wind chime tubes. Drilled a .059 hole 1.25 deep in .375 brass ( I knew the brass would be easy to work). Then I took .300 deep cuts at .090 on the od until I had a 1 inch tube with a 3/8 head to grip. Worked out well.

Yet another great video Joe Pi! Thanks for furthering my machining education.

crafty guy you are joe !!! awesome! !

You're a real Machinist wow first time I watch the channel

Brilliant Joe!

Awesome Joe, as always. Thank you.

Thank's Joe, I have used a similar technique when making hole cutter's for hardwood hole plugs. You machine (M/Steel or S/Steel) from the inside to the outside but only put the bevel on the I/D. Then you cut the teeth. If you have the correct profile you end up with perfect holes and plugs. Thanks for sharing this with us. Kind regards David.

Good techniques. When turning and boring thin walled PTFE the best way I've found is to have a high depth of cut on both ID and OD. I use a vacuum with the pipe mounted on the cross side to suck up the swarf.

I'm just a beginning hobbiest but videos like this one are extremely helpful for letting me know what is possible. The lathe you were using, or at least the lathe that was shown at the very end, was different than what I've seen you use.I'm looking for the "turning small parts" video. I've been very successful with screwing that up :o)

Now that was impressive!! Thanks for the tip!

I accept. My 2 favorite beers are....Free and Cold. Either will do.

By coincidence I'd been thinking of a project with a thin wall like this; a cap to repair the end of a small flashlight. I was foreseeing all the disasters that would happen when I tried it, but after your video I walked out into the shop and turned out of PVC pipe. Right on the button first time out. THANKS!

Both the thin wall and the small diameter are just killer ideas. great great great I would have turned down the work because I couldn't sneak up on the number. Wonderful technique! Thank You

Hi Joe, thanks for your always very informative video's! Strangely enough I was looking around for a piece of thin walled plastic, when I you showed this! Going to my shop now :-) Kind regards, Donald

I’m impressed, this is a super tip. Thanks Joe!

I just blew this exact type of part in my hobby shop, this is just the video I needed thanks for all your knowledge!

Just the opposite of the way I would have thought to do it but once you explained it, made total sense. Thanks.

This is a very good and valid technique for making parts with this kind of dimension. Ive used it many times to make cylinder bore liners and the like. When you think about it theres no mystery...the thin wall part that you are making is actually the "waste" from your turning and boring operation. With some practice it will work wonderfully.

Use a regular parting tool and just put a very aggressive nose angle on it. Make it pointy like a threading tool but leave one side flat. That the side that establishes the length of the part.
