Very nice! I shall try them out on my lathe. I never saw using the 'grub' screws used like that before, I always saw them solid brass or steel. I like the idea of the stainless screw, which will be stronger than brass!
You make it look so easy Steve..Ive just made my first cuts on a Sealey lathe and I,m suprised by the result considering I couldnt wait any longer having had it 6 mnths and no where to set it up. Regards Stuart Bell.
Hi Stuart Thanks. It's great that you have got your lathe going now. It is surprising how well they work and what results you can get. Thanks for watching. Regards Steve
@@SteveJordan I made them ala Harold Hall, cutting the dovetails with a 1/4" end mill at 30 degrees and used a digital level to set the angle of the blank in the vice. Most material cleared out at the bandsaw first..
Nice project video Steve. With no rush, no crazy music, just the job itself. My (perhaps stupid) question is about parting off. Noticed that you ran the lathe at constant speed. Have been told that then the diameter is diminishing you ought to increase the speed. Do you think that this is overkill on a small job like this or only on brass? Or.....
Hi Ingvar. Theoretically it is right that the spindle revs should increase as the part off decreases diameter. It does on CNC lathes, but I don't bother on any material as I find it cuts ok. Regards Steve.

Hi Raymond. Sorry for the late reply. I still use the 5-inch chuck. I think it may have been a combination of things. But it doesn't bother me now. Regards Steve
Hello Steve, thanks for the video. I followed the link for the 12mm lathe tool set from Banggood and it said that the item could not be sent to the U.K. No reason given. Best wishes.

Hi Paul...Thanks
Great video. Nice work. Thank you for sharing.
This is so excellent and EXACTLY what I need to make! I've never used or owned a lathe so I'm just starting out. Thanks so much for this!
That's great. Thanks for watching. Regards Steve
Nice work 👍
Very nice. Your methods are well worth remembering.
Thanks for watching...Regards Steve
Steve love your videos- wish i had access to all the brass you do-- living in california there are scrap dogs-- they have a monopoly on scrap metal--
Very nice! I shall try them out on my lathe.

Hi Gregory Thanks for watching...Regards Steve
Very nice Steve, I made a bunch similar for the height adjust on my DIY quick change tool holders. Enjoyed the make, cheers!
Hi Thanks. That's good that you made your own tool holders. I would like to make some, but I haven't got room for a decent milling machine.

I need to make some of these

Mate, did you ever come to any conclusions on the 5” chuck on the Myford?
Cheers
Hi Raymond. Sorry for the late reply. I still use the 5-inch chuck. I think it may have been a combination of things. But it doesn't bother me now. Regards Steve
hallo Steve is it passeble to put the carriage from a super myford ml7 onto a ml7
Hi Joke. No I don't think it's possible. Regards Steve
Was the 5mm drill slipping in the chuck?
Hi yes it was slipping a bit.

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. There seems to be a lot of these errors on Banggood. They must be losing a lot of business. Regards Steve

Now that's simple enough for even my poor abilities can do. Now, where do I need knobs ?
