I have a bigger problem with people and shops taking on jobs like this without really looking at what they need to do. It's okay to be ignorant and ask questions and learn and do the job right rather than ship a product that doesn't even work.
Your dead right job looks good but they don’t really understand what there doing so there’s gonna be times they get caught out like the way you do things thanks for your time 👍👍👍
well done sir.
Happy days buddy, thanks for sharing, best wishes to you and yours Ralfy
T handle allen wrench a knuckle saver!!!👍
If you don't understand what I mean, I'll send you a picture. In instagram
Hello, don't be shy, I had a question. If it's possible, can you also work with the gear shift indicator? The same graduated circle that has numbers for shifting gears. I saw that you can shift gears without engaging the gear shift lever or moving back and forth. Thank you.
Awesome Zack
I appreciate the video I’m not a professional machinist at all can get by probably takes me 10-20 times longer than you though 😂 for things I’m don’t have a 4 jaw at home yet at work we do so I’m using a 3 jaw chuck most of the time at home I could actually use one often for turning down square parts. It’s on my list of things to get some day. Good video 👍
@@WojnarskiWeldingFabricaion thank you sir! Thank you for watching
I dont understand how you are cutting tapered threads... I see you are feeding automatically on the z axis, are you moving backwards on the x axis manually? Or do you have some kind of mechanism attached that allows you to have an automatic feed on both planes? Appreciate the knowledge and skill btw👍 its being lost and I am living proof lol
@@pareraphael6035 thank you for watching.. I’m gonna upload a video.. showing me do it all. Do you can see.
From the dumb Driller that just screws them together yes . thats what I was thinking also 🤔 pretty interesting to me.
@ if you are a driller.. yiu ain’t dumb!!
@@Zkutmachine it's just a industry joke ;) 💪 Without the Steel we ain't got nothin to turn thanks for the skills ❤️
@ hell yeah!! I was a rough neck for a spell when I was 20 years old, worked on a big triple rig, rotary table, throwing chain.. b door,.. ole school. Not much of that today’
Why not cut them upside down and backwards so you cannot crash
@@ryanbeard1119 I don’t crash brother. This is the fastest way yo thread. On a manual lathe.
I cannot run my lathe backwards. I have a 13-in South bend lake. It has a threaded spindle. You cannot run those machines backward what holds your check on? 🤷🤣😱
Then you unclamp it and Drilllll baby Drilllll 🤟
Drill collars are perfect for keeping crazy drivers out of your yard if you live on a fast s curve or something. Saw a light pole cut a mustang in two pieces right down the middle so I know drill collars buried 12’ will definitely do the trick.
Drilling pipe?
@@operationrestore3308 yes but called drill collars they weight more than actual drill pipe.
@Zkutmachine awesome work.
@@operationrestore3308 thank you so much!!🙏🏻👍🏻
We had a brand-new cross over part on my old rig once we dropped 11,000 feet of pipe down from the top drive to the elevators, maybe 7 feet. I can't believe that they held but they did. I bet your threads will hold up better than those did. It broke right at the shoulder.
Do you have any black friends?
@@6Diego1Diego9 everyone is my friend .. I don’t meet strangers. And I have respect for everyone.
Finally, someone cutting theads on a lathe correctly 🙌 👏
@@keithbutler1997 great comment!!! Thank you!
Must be a dangerous place to work if you have to carry a hand gun in the open.
@@johnnoblet7705 dangerous world my friend… haven’t you noticed.
Best job in the World. Lathes built modern civilization.
@@thomasegan1551 🔥🔥🔥
You should grab a surface and cylindrical grinder
Great job buddy, thanks for sharing 👍
@@RalfyCustoms thanks for watching’
Sometimes the steady rest helps alot with rigidity if your hanging on out there a ways.
Small pieces of copper work very well for allowing part to "work" in 4 jaw.
Something I have never done, cut a tapered thread, no longer own a lathe with a taper attachment so probably never will. You made that look easy.
@@dutchgray86 been doing it a long time 🙏🏻thank you fit watching
Fantastic Zack, cheers from Florida…Paul
@@ypaulbrown thanks Paul!! Always thanks for the support!
You can’t argue with that 👍👍👍
Looks great. Tricky job threading out of the taper so to speak. Is it just the camera or is your compound set to a somewhat unusual angle? Thanks for the video.
@@OgiveBC prolly the camera angle.Thank you for watching!
like your tips and tricks
lead should not wear the cutting edge; carbide works on tool pressure where HHS slices/cuts by tool geometry. Buddy did apprenticeship for Black Clawson making paper machine parts in NYS. Caride finish cut was .007 feed, rough feed was .015
What grade SS? In the Navy it was always the manual lathe guys vs the manual mill guys. lmao... then it was the manual guys vs the cnc guys. Lmao
That's awesome. Its refreshing to see goodness spreading. 😊
Well deserved, awesome gift.
Lead is a hazardous material so pleased use eye protection and gloves when handling it, especialy when machining it, maybe even a mask so you dont inhale it.
You can cut lead or babbit with a dang craftsman screwdriver if you put the correct geometry on it!
@@mikesharp6342 helll yeah!!
@@mikesharp6342 I looked on your channel… not one thing about machine work… Let’s just leave that to professionals.. like me. You don’t have to be rude. I’m just asking for you to show me… how YOU do it better!
HSS should work fine. Actually, boring old high carbon steel should work too. I've turned tin (pewter) with HC steel and yeah it dulled the tool after a while but it worked fine. Now I need to watch more of your videos!
@@transmundanium I appreciate you!!
long sleeves + hoodie strings < awesome
I wouldn't trust the opinion of anyone who calls a turning tool a knife.
@@marley589 lol it’s a knife…. It’s cuts rubber… I forgot more about machine work… than. YOU know.
Obviously you forgot a whole lot! 😂@@Zkutmachine
@@mikesharp6342 where is your videos at??? I would like to see??
Ohhh that’s right…. You will have some excuse, why you can’t show me YOUR machine work… “ boss won’t let me video” “ we do highly secret stuff” lol show me that you know more than me in a machine shop. I will me waiting
@@Zkutmachine if I choose not to show my skills it doesn't mean I don't have any. Your video suggested to me that you were going to compare a carbide lathe tool with a HSS one. Naturally I expected the HSS to be ground to cut metal. I never thought you would try to cut metal with a knife. I should have paid more attention and not assuming the geometry of the tool.
If you really want a carbide insert, try a really high positive, like an MS chipbreaker with a CVD coating. Look for a TiN flavor (the gold color) you want a real sharp insert, like you'd use on teflon or nylon. Works great, high speed, low drag 😎
Nice work, the tolerance of the specific job is all that matters, I’m catching up on your vids
Good way to get pulled into the lathe with hoodie strings👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
@@busterdavy9769 lol if you think those little strings will suck me in.. that’s pretty funny. But thanks for your concern. 35 plus years in a machine shop… 0 accidents.. that’s a pretty fair safety record. Not one ER visit.
@@Zkutmachinefamous last words...🤦♂️
@@Zkutmachinethose little strings absolutely will suck you in.
@@danwilliams6175 again… 35 plus years.. I’m a machine shop. No accidents.. not one ER visit. In 35 years!!!! Safety record is intact.
@danwilliams6175 on liveleak, saw a guy get sucked in by a strip of emery cloth. Wrapped around the stock like a meat and denim fruit rollup.
Just found your channel and subbed, proper work buddy, btw love the armchair engineers trying to call you out 😂, best wishes to you and yours
@@RalfyCustoms hats off sir!!! Great comment!
Man be careful with those hoodie strings next to rotating tools
@@DerDanachDenkende I will thank you.
💯 % use HSS on anything soft such as lead, zinc, copper, etc... cutter geometry is the factor that you're missing. A good light cutting oil is the cherry on-top when surface finish needs to be bright and smooth.
@@RichFife I do a bit different.. but yiu are correct on tool geometry!📐 💪🏻💪🏻
@@Zkutmachine love the videos man!
HSS works great on lead. It's your tool. Never seen anybody grind a tool like that for anything, rubber maybe.
@@dondroc1 it doesn’t work “ great” but it would get the job done. Nothing works better than carbide insert.
@@Zkutmachine cutting properties... hss with the proper geometry will actually cut the softer materials... carbide will push/peel/roll the material... now, with that said, you can grind different primary and secondary reliefs better side rake, you have neutral, positive and or negative top rake etc IMO grinding carbide is waste especially when HSS works beautifully when everything is right.
@@Zkutmachine Anyone saying hand ground HSS is better than carbide for soft material hasn't used anything other than 20 year old carbide inserts. Korloy DCGT 32.52 is an excellent cheap insert for soft stuff. HSS only starts to shine with REALLY soft material like rubber, if you're willing to spend 30 minutes to rough grind, finish grind, hone, and polish each HSS bit on a proper tool grinder.
@ you are 💯 correct!! I’m from the ole school.. I actually have had to grind threading profiles out of tool steel!! Inserts have come a long way!! Thanks for your great input!
@kevind1865 carbide has definitely come a long ways in the least 15 years... nowadays carbide is a little more resistant to chipping when cutting lead etc... you can get a nice finish carbide... no doubt. Hss cuts rubber good... and thats because it cuts, doesnt roll thr material... use that same theory on lead, zinc, different grades of copper and aluminum... Call me old school, a stick in the mud, but, I'll use HSS, or Colbalt... and I'll have a mirror finish with colors... copper you'll see the greens, reds, oranges, purple-ish colors... To each their own... with time comes change, but the old tried and true will always have a place... and when the old ways are forgotten and the new tooling and tech just aren't cutting it, the old true ways will shed light and open new options for those fixed to only new ways.
I think this is the first vid ive seen turning lead
@@nathandevine552 badass!! I do a bunch..
Enjoy all your videos and knowledge Zack, cheers from Florida, Paul
@@ypaulbrown thank you Paul!! And thanks for the sup and watching! 🙏🏻💪🏻
What is the weight of your broad head shooting out 130 yards Those Havalon are great knives it always made me cringe watching guys use them until I started using them Hope you have a great time
Kool!,,
