Very nice!! Reminds me of the retractable threading tool from "The Shed Dweller"! 👍

For some strange reason, I really like the fact that you left in the sneeze.

Good concept. The holder with paper shim is not tight enough to stop micro vibrations when cutting. The purpose of the holder is to hold very firm. The depth of cut will be greatly effected. If you design the handle to apply both forward and downward force (to clamp the cutter) would help.

Great idea but not sure how accurate it will be to get continued depth of cut

@PaulsGarageProjects

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! I did a bit of measuring the other day, the repeatability appears to be well within 10 microns. I imagine it's at least as accurate as when I use the cross slide to retract/advance the tool.

Mmmmm .... Nice!

The repeatability on that isn’t going to be any good. It’s a notable effort, but without an accurate “return to zero” the repeatability wont be there and your threads will likely always be out of tolerance. Plus every one of them I’ve ever seen or used always retracted on their own through either tool pressure, mechanical “switch”, or a shoulder. A good example of a complicated but homemade version can be found on the “Shed Dweller” KZread channel.

Why won't the cam return to zero? There's going to be some slop, but it should always max out in the same place. I would have liked it to be integrated with the tool holder for rigidity, but the repeatability should be ok.

@PaulsGarageProjects

Жыл бұрын

I think the cam does lock in the same place, the lever rests on the top cover when engaged. I'm interested though, so I'll measure the repeatability. It's probably fine for the level I work at - have always creeped up and test fitted when cutting threads. I've been thinking about using a solenoid for auto retract, sounds like a future project 👍

Does it chatter more than normal?

@PaulsGarageProjects

Ай бұрын

I've used it a fair bit since I made it and haven't had any trouble with chatter. Although I do run the lathe at a slow speed when cutting threads.

I see it, and I understand it, but.... why? I mean, I get pulling the threading tool off the workpiece, but you still have to stop the carriage to keep from crashing the tool holder into the chuck. Or am I missing something? Nice work, though.

@PaulsGarageProjects

Good question! I've used it a fair bit since I built it, there are a few benefits: It's quicker than using the cross slide, You can't lose track of the cross slide, It's easier to use the cross slide to advance the cut (I usually don't have the compound installed). I'd also seen much more complicated versions of this tool before and wanted to build this simple version. There is also the idea of adding some kind of stop so that the tool is automatically retracted, so you just have to disengage the half nut. It's then safer to cut the thread at a higher speed.

I have seen a cut off tool with something like that. It’s basically like a tap follower. So when you go to use the cut off tool it will push back if it gets too much pressure. Keeps from breaking the tool or destroying the part. Nice job. 👍….

Here is a link to a automatic thread stop that I made for my lathe. It would probably work pretty good in conjunction with this tool so you could then automatically stop the carriage and then pull out the threading tool. kzread.info/dash/bejne/c4N_xpiantOZnLQ.html
