Repaired a Bush stick vac,could not get a replacement short plastic pipe to insert between extension and the vac head,used instead the cut off finger of a rubber glove!! which solved the problem,not usually the type of video I upload,but might be of use to anyone with the same problem. # Bush stick vacume cleaner.#Repairing a stick vacume cleaner.

I make a thread making button die from gauge plate in the traditional toolmakers way, old fashioned method which works if you need to make an odd size threading die, could be cheaper than buying a specially made to to order die, part 2 I harden and temper the die and try it out. #thread button #die taps and dies #hardening and tempering

Another great video Harold. Maybe next time you show how to grind something, consider using a texted to colour the edge being ground to give contrast when your grinding so it shows up better on the video.
Nice work . Did you make the stent from a Kit
I worked for the Warehouse and Distribution for 32 years .. and visited Neville Road many times Sad when it all Closed.
My uncle pete ran the Yorkshire wartime weekend
Do you have anymore footage or photos of this event or line ?
Sorry for the delay in replying and thanks for watching the video,unfortunatly I do not have anymore pics or video of this event.
That is a terrific record you have there sir and beautiful boilers!
Thank you for you nice comment, very much appreciated and thank you for watching the video.
Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge. BTW I had to dissamble and polish away the rough machining marks on the dial indicator holder internal force locking surfaces. This finishing work made the indicator holder much nicer to use. Cheers-Peter
Mine fortunately was ok, just needed a split bush for my indicators which are quit old now, need to invest in some new ones which should fit without the split bush, thanks foe watching the video.
Excellent video thanks for showing us how to make a threading die
@seahorseist glad you found it of use and thank you for watching the video.
In response to splinting the die before hardening, try not quit cutting the cut all the way through before hardening, and cut the remaining material after hardening.
That sounds a good idea, I might remake the die and try it out, thanks for the tip and thanks for watching the video.
quite*
Loved you story of your early apprenticeship. I can remember as a kid working in workshops/boiler-rooms that were covered in red lead and asbestos.
Boy, red lead and asbestos that is just as lethal as anything there is, glad you liked the short story and thanks for watching the video.
Another great video Harold. When I've had need to make a chasing die, I've just used 4140 steel and I taped the thread first and then drill out the clearance holds with an end mill on the mill after threading process on the lathe. Then I've place the die in a tin containing charcoal and heated it in my furnace until red hot, allow enough time for the carbon to move from the charcoal and in the metal to improve hardness. Then I quench the die in oil. I've never bothered to split the die. I've also quenched taps using the process of water over oil as you have mentioned.
John I have used this method before using an endmill which worked out ok, could make a video showing this way, thanks for your nice comment and thank you for watching the video.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, even though you encountered some problems it’s all very useful information.
Glad it was of some use and thank you for watching the video.
Only come across your channel and this is fascinating. your Boxford reminds me of school there was something about the drive that had a distinct sound. looking forward to part two now. thanks for taking time to make and upload.
Thanks for watching the video, glad it was of interest to you.
Back in the days of steam it was a common sight to see banker locomotives helping to get trains out of Exchange station. In this case losing a few hundred yards of track by moving the Interchange further up the track probably did not help to get a good run up the steepest part of the track.
Yes true, as regular train spotter at the exchange I always saw a lot of locos using bankers and my cousin was a fireman on one of the bankers from Low Moor sheds, thanks for watching the video.
I’m from heywood near bury lol 😅 there apparently knocking the market down to build bloody houses
My God hope not, what are they up to we were there again a few weeks ago, this is our favorite market, thank you for watching the video.
Great video Harold, just a quick question regarding your Boxford is the traverse handwheel dial a factory fitting or is it something you have contrived ?
Its a mod I did some years ago not a factory add on because on my previous lathe it had a graduated dial which I found to be an asset, so I just graduated it with the dividing head and it works a treat, thanks for watching the video.
Hi Harold, nice video I just found your channel.
I'm curious if there are rules of thumb for the diameter of the pitch circle, or the diameter of the holes for the cutting flutes compared to the diameter of the shaft you were trying to thread. It seems like it would be easy to get a 2 sharp a cutting lip that too fragile.
Those Noga style mag bases really are versatile, picked mine up when I retired after a lifetime of using and adapting Eclipse ones !
I should have got one years ago instead of struggling with my Eclipes holders, these are great but not on my machines, thank you for watching the video.
Interesting use of the scribing block to dial in the gauge block. Thank you for putting the video together and passing this onto the rest of us.
Used a scribing block like this for years, also for truing up cylindrical diameters instead of a clock, thanks for watching the video.
The Basics still rule.
Defiantly, so true basic ideas never fail, thanks for watching the video.
I like the pin idea as I was wondering about the interrupted cut.
No problems with the drilling and tapping, when the pins are removed the thread is ok, thanks for watching the video.
Brilliant Harold thanks for taking the time to share, I've always wondered how the best way was to form the cutting edges, never thought of drilling the holes first and plugging them.
Thanks for watching the video, glad its of interest to you, watch out for the second part where I harden and temper.
A very interesting video. Thank you sir! I've only just found your channel and subscribed immediately within two minutes of it starting!
@@samrodian919 thank you, glad you found it interesting, I try and keep a variety of subjects which provides a bit more interest to viewers, thanks for watching the video.
@@samrodian919 Thank you for watching the video, and thank you for subscribing.
Harold another great video, keep them coming.
Thanks again John for watching the the video ,look out for the second part, had to split it as it was getting a bit too long.
I used to work in that office that they were demolishing, it was the HMRC Shipley accounts office.
Thanks for watching the video never new it was there because we had never walked on the canal path this way, it will be interesting to see what they build next.
Thank you for sharing this most interesting video, I have an M1 Senior that I bought 4 years ago that was delivered in bits. I repainted reassembled and repositioned it on a new 4" concrete base where it has stood gathering surface rust, however I have just finished de-rusting it and fitted the gearbox. Now waiting for a new drive belt, I have a couple of jobs for it and then I'll go ahead with your modifications, Regards A new and grateful subscriber Joe Paton
Thanks for watching the video ,glad you found my video useful for your senior, I have found it very useful over the years and fairly easy to make.
Great work Harold. Keep the videos coming.
Chmper sharpening required for correct size..
Hi Harold, youtube needs more of these types of video on tool-making and sharpening.
Thanks John for watching the video, hoping to put up some more tool sharpening videos in the future watch out for one coming soon.
Hi, Im from the Halton Miniature Railway, kids dont really do that no more tbh, some times, but not a lot,,, you should come back, love to hear for you, :)
Thanks for watching the video, glad your railway does not have kid trouble like they used to have when I visited this amazing railway, I had lots of enjoyment whenever I and my family 😀were there and the members were so friendly, it was so funny though when the kid got the surprise of his life when he got a boot up the backside from the driver, I really need to pay a visit to the railway again.
Winner was David Sutcliffe with the 7f 2-8-0. 1.886%
Thanks for the info,missed the presentations so no video of the winners,thanks for watching the video.
So interesting!
you need to have a look at this place,really amazing,the boys would love it.
More fun than humans should be allowed.
Loved the video very informative. Do you remember the reference for the original article on the Holmes pop valve? Cheers Garry
Sorry for the delay in replying to your question about the original article,it was in a very early edition of Engineering In Minature,the exact number I am afraid I have forgotten I think it could be issue 4 or 5,I do remember that on the front cover it showed a picture of a 5 inch gauge Evening Star built by the late Jim Ewing the author of the pop valve of which he discribed in the magazine,I still have the pages of the original article which I kept when I disposed of the magazines,but sadly there is no date on the pages,hope it was of use to you,and thanks for watching the video.
Unless I'm mistaken it opened in 1948 so must be one of the oldest.
That is interesting,nearly 77 years old,one of my favorite railways,look out for my short upcoming video of the Whistlestop Railway,also known as the Kirklees Light Railway,thanks for the info and thanks for watching the video.
Are you sure that these lock gates are the tallest in the country? Tuel Lane Lock in Sowerby Bridge is very deep and has a rise of 6 metres in one lock. So the lower gates of this lock must be considerably greater than 6 metres high. (I wasn't aware of this lock until I did a walk along part of the Rochdale Canal in summer 2022.)
Thanks for watching the video,you are probably right,I was repeating what I read in an article about the locks,I am no expert so thanks for the correction.
Harolds workshop and steam , Subscribed because your videos are so much fun!
Glad you enjoy my videos and thank you for watching.
The loco at 1:50 looks a lot to me like the Irish Peat Board’s Andrew Barclay 0-4-0s - not sure if they were a standard type used elsewhere or not, or if that’s what it’s based on, but that’s what jumped out to me
Thanks for watching the video,I beleive the loco is based on somthing similar to what you mention,the designer of this model was Roger Marsch,he might have been inspired the engine you mentioned.
People are moving because it’s company owned site . Rip off site fees and also over inflated caravan selling prices. They don’t tend to take care of their sites as other family run would . These sites tend to be rental vans also which means you get any Tom. Dick and Harry on them and they don’t tend to respect other owners or caravans. Certainly wouldn’t pay a premium ground rent for this kind of place, when there are nicer sites and definitely much nicer places than dreadful Skegness. Skegness is rough as hell and a filthy tip. Shocking!!
Exactly,this is one of the reasons we sold up,as the original Richmond site was family run and we loved the site and they did not enforce rules like Haven do,the momment we sold the caravan to a private individual they took off our perfectly good hut and disposed of a washing machine and dryer which we left for the people buying it, thanks for watching the video
When mum and dad were alive, this was their go to site(Not far from town or the station)I do hope the Richmonds are still involved,they made the holiday great. Thanks for this update
Thank you for watching the video,dont think Richmond are anymore envolved with the site since Haven took over,still a great site but to me it seems not to have the same vibe as the old Richmond.
Hail, Caesar!! ❤😊

Did u never rent ya caravan out to make money
Thanks for watching the video,yes we did think about renting to try and cover some of the costs but in the end the distance travelling and maintainance put us off,in retrospect we should have rented.
Сделанное Тогда-работает до сих пор!!! Сделанное сегоня-столько не проработает((
I like your comment it is so very much true,thanks for looking at the video.
No problem))
Love the engine! How much coal would she burn on say an afternoon of running with passangers? If you dont mind me asking, what loco would recommend for a newbie/first loco? Cheers
Ths engine does well with coal,I also use the ovoids which is composed of crushed, I think anthracite,not too sure but I use both and its not a lot for an afternoon run,never really checked.Well the type engine depending if you are wanting a severn and a quarter inch gauge or five inch gauge I would recomend the Romulus severn and a quarter inch gauge, fairley straight forward to build,or if five inch gauge definitely a sweetpea,if three and a half inch gauge loco, Maise hope this is of use to you,and thanks for watching the video.
@@popperkeg1234 Thanks for you reply, I will have a look in to these but must admit I don't think I'd have the skill to build. Would have be bought built and running! Always fancied a conway in 3.5 but heard there hard to fire. Do you know if northcliffe offer and experience days with starting from cold and driving? Cheers
@@letshaveago6077 I am sure they will allow this,will make enquiries.
Thanks for sharing. l thought that it was done with spiral follower and cams but this cool idea is nicer than complicated mechanisms.
Thank you for watching the video,it's a little known way of grinding like this but when I was working for a couple of tool makers years ago this was the method of grinding the flutes of all kinds of reamers and certain drills in the rough state straight from hardening,they were all hand ground and then sent to the finish grinding section for taper grind and od grinding to size,then for the bevel to be ground at 45 deg,it was found that grinding the flutes like this we had more control and "feel"this way and was very quick,more so than machine grinding the flutes.
My mother in law now owns your old caravan we stayed in it last October
Thanks for watching the video,nice,we hope you liked the caravan,we loved having the van and had a brilliant 10 years with that van,we really miss it but he increase in ground rents and other fees made it impossible for us to carry on.
Its nice to see how the line has developed in the last 30 years since this was filmed.
Thank you for watching the video,I think I need to pay a visit again as it is quite a few years now since we were there and see all the changes.
What i never understood is why the building work was never done out of season
It also puzzled me also as to why they did not do it out of season,I think it is the norm with Haven,they are not bothered about the disruption it causes to holiday makers,thanks for watching the video.
Enjoyed your video of yet another brilliant gala at K&WVR, was there myself on Thurs / Fri as its my local heritage line, always nice to see what others have filmed, i have subscribed to you...Mal
Glad you found it interesting,there is a bit more video to upload very soon so keep an eye out,also thank you for watching the video.
Thank you very much for the video. I have the same model Boxford as yours, but without the cross feed. Some time i will make a thread dial indicator to enable disengagement of the tool during threadding.
Thank you for watching the video,glad you found it of interest.
