I've been benefitting from these videos over the past two years. I want to buy a little lathe just for fun. I haven't used a metal lathe since I was in high school in 1957. Doesn't matter. I'll have fun. I have definitely decided to not buy price. I'll allow six thousand or so for the lathe and accessaries / addons. Maybe more. The size? At least 10 x 20 inches. I don't want a lathe that has ball bearings on the spindle. Tapered rollers is much better. Will I select a gear head? Maybe. Haven't decided. I have an idea that I'll do lots of threading. Changing gears all the time doesn't thrill me much. I don't think I need a digital display. Speed adjusting seems more intuitive to me. I like Proxxon but they are too small. Otherwise their quality seems above average. I like Sherline quite a lot. Not sure though. On their website they don't provide prices but instead offer financing. They want to sell you on a product and later tell you what the damage will be. This usually means they are pricey. I don't mind spending but I don't want to have to search for the rest of my life to find out what something costs. Why do they hide it? Maybe because of the current inflation.... it changes a lot? So far I am leaning towards the one from Taiwan. Precision Matthews 1228 model with dro and a box of goodies to make it even more fun. This one runs on 110vac single phase with a variable speed DC motor. Seems just right. Any larger lathe from PM needs 240vac and maybe three phase too. I don't need all that sophistication in my garage. Watching all these videos is almost as much fun as having the machine all set up and ready for ???? I have no idea what I'll use it for. I guess I will find out later. May as well get a little mill while I'm at it. Why not? Fun fun fun... The reader can tell I'm the fussy type. It's true. Why not? After all this talk I'll probably end up buying a Harbor Freight 14 inch. ha ha... Well, I can have fun on that model too.

Precision matthews has some great stuff and they are great to deal with. I bought a milling machine from them, and have heard nothing but good things. LOL... we all want a big fancy lathe ... but the fact that we don't all have one means we come up with reasons not to go through with it. It is a little harder to justify if you don't' even know what you will be doing with it, but, if you have one, you will find things to do with it.

I love your videos but you saying there is no pressure is just plain wrong. Pressure can exist without restriction of flow. For example, atmospheric pressure is a thing. It is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on what is under it. Also, there is head pressure. As you dive under water the weight of the water presses down on you and that is a pressure. If you drink through a straw that's because of pressure. There is atmospheric pressure pushing down on the fluid in the cup and when you suck on the straw you cause a drop in pressure in the straw causing a pressure differential in the straw allowing fluid to flow up the straw. Try sucking water through a drinking straw and then try sucking honey through a drinking straw. When you try to suck the honey through the straw, the straw flexes before you can draw honey through because that takes less pressure than it does to draw the honey up through the dlstraw. That is obviously exaggerated compared to to the diesel line but the same principle exists. In your test you have the fuel source above the heater allowing gravity to provide the head pressure (fuel pressure in this case). If you don't think you need pressure place the fuel source below the heater and see what happens. It DEFINITELY won't work.
@loweredexpectations492712 күн бұрын
I get what you are saying, but respectfully argue the following. If there is no resistance, there is no pressure. Gravity pulls down on stuff, but if you don't' resist, then it is in free fall. Atmospheric pressure is real, yes, but if you have pressure equalization, the the differential is zero. Unless you create a vacuum (low pressure area) then the atmospheric pressure is applied to everything, so the net pressure is zero. Pulling fuel up with the pump requires a pressure differential, so you could say that there is pressure, but the pressure between the tank and pump is at a negative. (lower than atmosphere) If you are pushing fuel uphill, the "pressure" from gravity is at the pump, and not at the head of the fuel... Meaning, the closer to the top of the fuel colum you get, the closer to zero pressure you have. The pressure exists within the fuel colum (and is a result of the resistance of the fuel and fuel line below) not between the top of the fuel colum and atmosphere / entrance to the heater. This is almost arguing semantics, but I am still correct about there not being any pressure in the system I built. The only pressure exists between the fuel container and the valve / restriction. There is actually a negative pressure between the restriction / valve and heater. This is caused by the fuel wanting to fall due to gravity, and the restriction of the valve. If there wasn't a negative pressure in the fuel line, the fuel would fall out of the hose, into the heater at a free fall, minus the restriction from viscosity.
@brentonrawhoof196712 күн бұрын
@loweredexpectations4927 it's not arguing semantics is literally physics and a fact. You're saying a bunch of words in an attempt ignore actual physics. There is no point in arguing with you if you ignore this. It's not even hard to grasp. The terms head pressure and atmospheric pressure literally have PRESSURE in the name and there is ZERO flow restriction.
@loweredexpectations492712 күн бұрын
@@brentonrawhoof1967 Maybe it's not clear as to why I say "it's arguing semantics" When I say at the intro of the video that there isn't any pressure, I go on to explain that there isn't a nozzle, and the fuel dribbles in. I'm taking about pressure in the fuel line as the result of a nozzle / injector restriction. Debunking the idea that the performance of the heater is dependent on fuel being squirted or misted and that rigid fuel line would make any difference vs soft line. I'm talking about pressure significant enough that "soft" fuel line would expand / absorb enough energy to change the operation of the heater, while rigid line would be able to contain the pressure, and increase performance. The fact that I said "pressure is the restriction of flow" indicates that I am talking about pressure differentials in a system, and not atmospheric pressure or pressure from gravity. All of that being said, pressure is literally "force exerted per area" Force can not be exerted without a restriction. The key word being "exerted". No restriction = no exertion. Head pressure and atmospheric pressure only exist because they are being contained and therefore haven't something to exert force on. Again. In my gravity feed system, there is pressure, but 1. not relevant to debunking soft vs rigid line and 2. the pressure in the system is between the fuel storage container and the valve. If you put a pressure gauge after the valve, it would read as a vacuum due to the mass of the fuel in the line. I think some of the confusion stems from my quick explanation, but also from people getting stuck on a specific thing, instead of grasping the overall picture. Like in the last paragraph, when I said "vacuum" I obviously didn't mean it in the literal sense, but it is the word that makes the most sense to use, unless you are writing in a science journal. So. The no pressure statement at the start of this video meant. "no significant pressure between the pump and burn chamber." "Significant" meaning, great enough to cause a noticeable loss of performance, do to soft fuel line absorbing energy, and decreasing fuel delivery energy.

Minute 2:13 - i also have such a variable square, i suggest you a fixed square for 90 degrees, they sold it with a sort of extended side, so to fix exactly and quickly the 90 degrees position, after having oriented the compound in any other position. I also built myself special squares for MK2 and MK3 tapers, the most common tapers used in our chinese lathe. That squares i suppose would cost a big amount of money, mine are built with two point screws at a fixed distance one from the other, fixed in a similar square i told you before ; they are protruding just a bit one from the other, to realize, with the previous distance, a taper 2 ... similar for taper 3 ... That squares are fixed, i use one of them to adjust compound to proper angle so to cut the wanted taper ... Of course exact protruding of the two screws is essential, and also their distance. In any case you can adjust minor errors with a file to adjust one of the screw to the exact value ...

@@werner.x I'm thinking of finding an electric pump and just bypassing the mechanical pump. Man, I wish I still had my 67 Plymouth Belvedere, or my 69 Toyota _Corona._ I _knew_ I'd regret getting rid of them, I just wanted a new car so bad.
Quit wasting water on the lawns....hahahaha
HAHA... You'd think, with all the water falling out of the sky, it wouldn't be a problem.... but I guess when your water mains don't hold water, that's a problem.
Posted a short on my page.
Did you leave any parts at the parts store for anyone else 🤣? They're probably getting a sales bonus this week. The first part I ever changed on any vehicle was a water pump on my '78 Monte Carlo back in the 1980's. I had no clue what I was doing but I also knew that I wasn't gonna have wheels to get around so I'd better figure it out.
Haha... My poor old truck needed those parts, and a whole lot more. I thought I had changed this pump before, but it turns out that I had just changed the gaskets about 12 years ago.
I sure enjoyed this post today.
Thanks !!
@@loweredexpectations4927 How do I join in on the giveaway ?
Thanks for the update. I hope you are getting along will with your divorce and new home.
Thanks ! Things are going pretty well.
@loweredexpectations4927 you guys were married? If it makes you feel any better (likely not because you are a good person!) I'm going through a divorse of my own and let's just say it's no where smooth in the slightest compared to yours... you came up in a conversation about jetskis with some friends today! Glad you are busy and bringing in some coin. Keep on trucking brother!
@@AtimatikArmy We were not married. Common law. It makes no difference, legally here. It sucks that you are going through something similar (worse). Megan and I still get along. I've gone to visit her and Quasar a few times now and we still chat. It is, of course, still rough, but probably the best that it could possibly be. That's amusing that I would come up in conversation so far away and with people I don't know, haha. Take care of yourself and good luck with everything.
@loweredexpectations4927 I can say that I'm very tied into the Jet Ski community her in Nor Cal. I've been doing thr race series up here as well and we have our own ride group that has been gaining popularity. I've tried to mention to you about it before but for some reason youtube shadow bans the post letting me think it posted but it can only be seen by me... not sure why they dud that to me but they did... the point in all this is that you have come up in conversations a few times and you are well respected for what it's worth. I love how you follow your own path and not necessarily what is trending in the jetski community and I (as well as others) really appreciate your technical knowledge and approach to how you do things. You are EXTREMELY on point.
I just got foredom sr damn chuck fell out 10 seconds to the first touch to wood
I have heard of this happening to a few people with both this tool and the actual Foredom unit... I have been told it is a taper lock and you can just smack it back on 🤷♂️ Hasn't happened to me yet.
Your not an asshole
Haha. Thanks.
Dear sir !I would like to purchesing this laeth mechine to sri lanka how by advice. Thanking u .I am lasath.
Oh wow. I am not sure how to go about that.
Very interesting 👌
Thanks.
Great Video - very helpful I struggled with the ‘user manual’ , head wrecking is right !! Please, advise on how you removed the led panel and mounted it on your dash ? Best Regards 👍
The control panel pops out of the holder on the metal case, and disconnects from the plug. I then just used some tacky tape to stick it on my dash.
Keep on keeping on Joel. I do lawn care to supplement my meagre income. You would be my go to for any small engine help.
Good stuff. It's been a crazy year for me - crazy busy spring.
I've been benefitting from these videos over the past two years. I want to buy a little lathe just for fun. I haven't used a metal lathe since I was in high school in 1957. Doesn't matter. I'll have fun. I have definitely decided to not buy price. I'll allow six thousand or so for the lathe and accessaries / addons. Maybe more. The size? At least 10 x 20 inches. I don't want a lathe that has ball bearings on the spindle. Tapered rollers is much better. Will I select a gear head? Maybe. Haven't decided. I have an idea that I'll do lots of threading. Changing gears all the time doesn't thrill me much. I don't think I need a digital display. Speed adjusting seems more intuitive to me. I like Proxxon but they are too small. Otherwise their quality seems above average. I like Sherline quite a lot. Not sure though. On their website they don't provide prices but instead offer financing. They want to sell you on a product and later tell you what the damage will be. This usually means they are pricey. I don't mind spending but I don't want to have to search for the rest of my life to find out what something costs. Why do they hide it? Maybe because of the current inflation.... it changes a lot? So far I am leaning towards the one from Taiwan. Precision Matthews 1228 model with dro and a box of goodies to make it even more fun. This one runs on 110vac single phase with a variable speed DC motor. Seems just right. Any larger lathe from PM needs 240vac and maybe three phase too. I don't need all that sophistication in my garage. Watching all these videos is almost as much fun as having the machine all set up and ready for ???? I have no idea what I'll use it for. I guess I will find out later. May as well get a little mill while I'm at it. Why not? Fun fun fun... The reader can tell I'm the fussy type. It's true. Why not? After all this talk I'll probably end up buying a Harbor Freight 14 inch. ha ha... Well, I can have fun on that model too.
Precision matthews has some great stuff and they are great to deal with. I bought a milling machine from them, and have heard nothing but good things. LOL... we all want a big fancy lathe ... but the fact that we don't all have one means we come up with reasons not to go through with it. It is a little harder to justify if you don't' even know what you will be doing with it, but, if you have one, you will find things to do with it.
Can you do a cabon monoxide test with the cat . I am joking honest.
HAHA... Poor Quasar. I don't think he has enough brain cells to be effected by CO.
Very interesting results .It shows how clean burning and efficient these heaters are.. Which equates to how safe they are when used as they should be used . It puts a cap on the profits of doom nonsense .
Yes. Incredibly safe and practical in many situations. Not for everything and everyone, but great when used in a sensible way.
We think alike sometimes. Keep up your good work.
Great minds...
I love your videos but you saying there is no pressure is just plain wrong. Pressure can exist without restriction of flow. For example, atmospheric pressure is a thing. It is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on what is under it. Also, there is head pressure. As you dive under water the weight of the water presses down on you and that is a pressure. If you drink through a straw that's because of pressure. There is atmospheric pressure pushing down on the fluid in the cup and when you suck on the straw you cause a drop in pressure in the straw causing a pressure differential in the straw allowing fluid to flow up the straw. Try sucking water through a drinking straw and then try sucking honey through a drinking straw. When you try to suck the honey through the straw, the straw flexes before you can draw honey through because that takes less pressure than it does to draw the honey up through the dlstraw. That is obviously exaggerated compared to to the diesel line but the same principle exists. In your test you have the fuel source above the heater allowing gravity to provide the head pressure (fuel pressure in this case). If you don't think you need pressure place the fuel source below the heater and see what happens. It DEFINITELY won't work.
I get what you are saying, but respectfully argue the following. If there is no resistance, there is no pressure. Gravity pulls down on stuff, but if you don't' resist, then it is in free fall. Atmospheric pressure is real, yes, but if you have pressure equalization, the the differential is zero. Unless you create a vacuum (low pressure area) then the atmospheric pressure is applied to everything, so the net pressure is zero. Pulling fuel up with the pump requires a pressure differential, so you could say that there is pressure, but the pressure between the tank and pump is at a negative. (lower than atmosphere) If you are pushing fuel uphill, the "pressure" from gravity is at the pump, and not at the head of the fuel... Meaning, the closer to the top of the fuel colum you get, the closer to zero pressure you have. The pressure exists within the fuel colum (and is a result of the resistance of the fuel and fuel line below) not between the top of the fuel colum and atmosphere / entrance to the heater. This is almost arguing semantics, but I am still correct about there not being any pressure in the system I built. The only pressure exists between the fuel container and the valve / restriction. There is actually a negative pressure between the restriction / valve and heater. This is caused by the fuel wanting to fall due to gravity, and the restriction of the valve. If there wasn't a negative pressure in the fuel line, the fuel would fall out of the hose, into the heater at a free fall, minus the restriction from viscosity.
@loweredexpectations4927 it's not arguing semantics is literally physics and a fact. You're saying a bunch of words in an attempt ignore actual physics. There is no point in arguing with you if you ignore this. It's not even hard to grasp. The terms head pressure and atmospheric pressure literally have PRESSURE in the name and there is ZERO flow restriction.
@@brentonrawhoof1967 Maybe it's not clear as to why I say "it's arguing semantics" When I say at the intro of the video that there isn't any pressure, I go on to explain that there isn't a nozzle, and the fuel dribbles in. I'm taking about pressure in the fuel line as the result of a nozzle / injector restriction. Debunking the idea that the performance of the heater is dependent on fuel being squirted or misted and that rigid fuel line would make any difference vs soft line. I'm talking about pressure significant enough that "soft" fuel line would expand / absorb enough energy to change the operation of the heater, while rigid line would be able to contain the pressure, and increase performance. The fact that I said "pressure is the restriction of flow" indicates that I am talking about pressure differentials in a system, and not atmospheric pressure or pressure from gravity. All of that being said, pressure is literally "force exerted per area" Force can not be exerted without a restriction. The key word being "exerted". No restriction = no exertion. Head pressure and atmospheric pressure only exist because they are being contained and therefore haven't something to exert force on. Again. In my gravity feed system, there is pressure, but 1. not relevant to debunking soft vs rigid line and 2. the pressure in the system is between the fuel storage container and the valve. If you put a pressure gauge after the valve, it would read as a vacuum due to the mass of the fuel in the line. I think some of the confusion stems from my quick explanation, but also from people getting stuck on a specific thing, instead of grasping the overall picture. Like in the last paragraph, when I said "vacuum" I obviously didn't mean it in the literal sense, but it is the word that makes the most sense to use, unless you are writing in a science journal. So. The no pressure statement at the start of this video meant. "no significant pressure between the pump and burn chamber." "Significant" meaning, great enough to cause a noticeable loss of performance, do to soft fuel line absorbing energy, and decreasing fuel delivery energy.
I was so hopeful when I found this video that it might help us with our annoying loud diesel heater voice but alas, ours looks different and I still can't figure it out. Thanks anyway :)
Great video, I have a great like for Vevor, and have several great deals from them. Check your angle setting on the compound, its travel should be just a bit inside parallel of the angle of the cutting edge of the threading tool , making one cutting edge doing the bulk of the work. Enjoyed and subbed, cheers!
Thanks to your video I picked up a 24” x 16” x 10” for $110 off Home Depot’s website. It’ll be used as an electrical enclosure for my CNC machine as well!
I appreciate you getting right to the point! I get so frustrated with youtubers that want to turn a simple informational video like this into some monologue that drags on and on. I clicked on a video to get the information the video title purports to contain. I generally give a video about 30 seconds to get into the meat and potatoes of what it is supposed to be about and then if the creator of the video drones on about something unrelated to the title, I am done watching that video and off to something different. Kudos to you! Thanks for getting right to the point!
Thanks for this video!!! Helped me set mine up
great video man! you answered ALL my questions as I just got my unit yesterday. thanks again. I want dam near all VEVORs gadgets. just got a place with a large garage in Fl so its DYI party time. thanks again and best to you
Hi Do you need some great lighting for your car to help you better driving, off-road? We hope to do some lighting sponsorship with you!
Hey Joel, glad to hear that your work seems good. I'm a total introvert myself naturally but ofc I'm in the same boat where due to line of work you just have to have some conversations and do your best. Although once I get to know someone well and if they have similar interests it's easy for me to be talkative to them haha. I'm definitely going through a big life phase right now myself with a new career/health and hoping to come out of it stronger and wish you the same with the transitions/goals you're going through. I also wish to have a furry cat friend again but probably isn't the right time since I'm trying hard to take care of my health. Wishing that your summer is a good one and hopefully life allows you to get out on the water again sooner than you think for some fun adventures ;)
Watched this the other day as I ate breakfast. Not my usual fare, but you're really the reason your other videos work, and this one demonstrates that. Best wishes for a profitable season!
Great introduction lowered expectations in living color lol
Minute 2:13 - i also have such a variable square, i suggest you a fixed square for 90 degrees, they sold it with a sort of extended side, so to fix exactly and quickly the 90 degrees position, after having oriented the compound in any other position. I also built myself special squares for MK2 and MK3 tapers, the most common tapers used in our chinese lathe. That squares i suppose would cost a big amount of money, mine are built with two point screws at a fixed distance one from the other, fixed in a similar square i told you before ; they are protruding just a bit one from the other, to realize, with the previous distance, a taper 2 ... similar for taper 3 ... That squares are fixed, i use one of them to adjust compound to proper angle so to cut the wanted taper ... Of course exact protruding of the two screws is essential, and also their distance. In any case you can adjust minor errors with a file to adjust one of the screw to the exact value ...
Did not get notification for this, came to say hi and saw you had a new video...30min in before the first garaaage! You had me worried 🤣🤣 Glad to see you're still doing your thing. 👑🤟🏻🤟🏻👑
Good back up ...wish inadequate an iv line for my camping trip as pump diet.
As a side joke, would ppl get desperate enuff to steal your 5lts of diesel sitting outside (in the freezing cold) i am sitll running it indoor, and although the MO2 is neligible,. I still remember your other vid where you detected formaldehyde in the air with you Oxygen Quality Meter thingy...... Most of the time I run it min. but when it get -1,-3 the reverse cycle freezes up, and ah well, I kick in the Diesel, and all is sweet,, eg/ last night (o5oohrs)_ Outdoor temp = 0, Indoor Temp 30deg. (31 peak). HAHHHAAHA....Fking Cosy like fuking the stinkin hot summers we have here. ahh,, fk it, let fire up the HT and 'tune in" Cheers!
heh, never seen this vid. Interesting.
just serfing about, and it appears Vevor make lotsa good stuff like Hamburger Press, Wine Press? lol, hmmmm
Diesel particulates are not tested here, and these heaters are not equipped with any of the expensive filters that would be effective, such as found in a modern diesel car.
