One of the first machining videos i watched when i started machining, i am now lead in lathe department, programmer programming with mastercam and setting up 5 axis
I'm not even remotely a machinist but somehow I was compelled to watch this entirely. I'm fascinated by the work you do!
Watching these is like watching old tv shows. Very enjoyable and cool to see how far he's come.
Takes me back over 40 years at the start of my apprenticeship, learning about halving the cut and micrometer maths in the head. Thanks for a lovely set of videos.
Damn you Adam! Since I stumbled on your channel, I haven's gotten to bed before midnight! I was sitting in front of a lathe when I was 4. That was 61 years ago. Spent 10 years in the Navy doing this stuff. Then to a foundry machine shop. Have my own shop..CNC and all. LOVE your channel. Learn something new every night, keep up the good work.
I really enjoy watching your videos. As a certified welder for many years im considering doing an apprenticeship in machining. Great job man
Hey Adam I have been watching your videos for a while now I have been working as a conventional and CNC lath VTL mill operator and programmer for 10 years. Every time I watch on of your videos I learn something. Just wanted you to know that your hard work is appreciated
This was the first video I watched on your channel, back in 2014, right on the time I started to work on the machines at the university for my thesis project. Naturally, these were like concentrated doses of "how to do things" and "what not to do". Thanks a lot for keep sharing your knowledge and experience :) and wish you all the the best. Hope to keep seeing more heavy-metal-machining in the years to come ^_^
Hi, absolutely love your videos! I have been in the field for a few years now, but have recently taken an apprenticeship with a master machinist. Your videos have helped me learn so much, and I hope to hone my skills enough to maybe have my own channel. Thank you for the education :)
I have a similar but much smaller chuck on my wood lathe. This is exactly the instructions that I needed to set it up. Kudos Adam. Thanks love your channel. Keep up the great work.
Thank you man:D I went a job interview where i had to true a 1.5 m diameter workpiece in a four jaw chuck. I used the method what you use in your videos and they called me that day aftermoon when can i start. :D Sorry for my bad english i rarely practice it. Sincerely from hungary
Great video Adam looking forward to pt2.
Excellent work Abom. Sorry I'm only allowed to give you one thumbs up. You've taught me alot over the years.
I like your style, and can see that your camera work and editing just gets better over time. What I like best is how you tell us what you're going to do and then immediately demonstrate.
I've watched most, if not all, of your videos, and I haven't left wondering what you were doing or why you did it yet. My compliments.
Loved the work Adam, a real craftsman with experience.
Your a true craftsman.I've been machining over 30 years and still enjoy watching others techniques. Thanks for the videos
Excellent work, I like your videos. They are a serious learning resource for me as well as Little Tony. Keep up!
nice work, learn something new every time I watch your videos.
thanks for your good work.

Thanks Richard!!
Another great vid Abom. That Monarch is one sweet machine!!!
Gill
Thanks Gill! You know we love those Monarchs! Thanks for checking out the video!
I enjoyed watching the curly chips those big drill bits make.. I have seen your other video on these rollers.. There is alot of machining to make them.. Watching this has taught me how I can make these on a smaller scale for small projects
As always, thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoy them! Glad to know there's some lessons in there for others.
I like the quiet way you explain what you do
Been with you on the forums and now YOuTube. Great work bro. Man that lathe is smooth and quiet. Love the GoPro footage and love the fire trucks (real work, in a real shop). Looking forward to the next vid.
Thanks for joining me here on youtube, and the great comments. I'm glad your enjoying the videos.
Great video... don't know if you're open to tips but I use the face of the tailstock to help hold the stock's face true and it also allows me to adjust the amount to hold on to the jaws with ease. Shortens the face indicating time.
Great vid. I am learning to use various lathes and am not qualified as such but i love the way that those machines make cutting through steel like its made of cheese. Cheers.
That's a awesome lathe. Thanks. Jim.
As always Great Job Adam. Thank you for sharing. I almost want to say that it was a good switch that you've made from PM forum to you tube mostly because you post much more action. I'm zcapo from the PM, good to see you're well and working. God Bless my friend.
ccmfayz1 Nice to hear from you. Yea it sucks about the forum thing, but I mostly post updates on TH-cam now. Too much social media to keep up with!
amazing indicating in facing excellent nice use of coolant super curlies from the shap drill 2 flute big one excellent comentary
Great video. Reminds me of my old days in the Navy. Was a machinery repairman for 22 years. One destroyer tender and 3 sub tenders. My recommendation to you is not to use oil when you have coolant. This mixture causes a sludge in your sump that is a big problem when it's time to clean it out.
Four and Six jaw chucks RULE!! Threes are good, too, depending on what the task is. But, if you got a six, you can do ANYTHING. Colet Chuck, too. Awesome.
You have been doing this for all these years and you are only NOW getting recognized? Wow.
Your presentations, even this far back, are mesmerizing!! You persevered! You and Abby are STARS!!
Hey, when is Tony comin' out with a new video? :-) I did discover him through you. Love You, Tony! :-)
I am glad I am not the only person scared of a major military exercise in the final cut. good on ya Adam
glenn whitchurch p
Loved those chip from the one drill. They were almost art! Great video Adam...
That was indeed art, the art of someone who can really sharpen a drill bit accurately! Perfectly even chips... Nice! ;o]
O,
Opinionator52 Thanks a bunch Opinionator!
Thanks Fred! Glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Adam and thanks for your videos. This type machine work has always fascinated me and you present information really well. I'm a retired maintenance pilot and was wondering about the maintenance of your equipment and how you know when it is required. That would make another very interesting video. Really enjoy your work! Thanks........... Idaho Joe
Great video even though I do machine work everyday I still love to watch videos of it
Thanx for sharing. .. been doing this shit since My teen age years.... have a race /4x4 Custom shop today. .. love getting New inspiration ... keep up the good work ... see ya' again .... Cap
Adding some videos to facebook as we speak......taking awhile due to slow cell phone connection......keep an eye out. Watching this motivated me!
Why not upload them on TH-cam? I'll check them out though.
there is something very satisfying about this type of work, I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's similar to a sense of accomplishment I suppose, since you can see every little change and effect you have on something immediately, while you're working on it, instant gratification maybe, I don't know, but I know I like it, and it's cool :D
WTF half a million views and 1k thumbs up. Show some appreciation people. Great work Adam
Wow, weight loss difference between then and now is incredible!
your awesome only experienced craftsman like yourself understands the importance of spring cuts
omg..I accidentally found a new favourite thing to watch :D
I noticed you said the swarf was pushing the boring bar away while machining with the WNMG tip. I find a TNMG tip bar gives slightly more clearance and eliminates that generally. Also running outwards on last couple of cuts helps. Nice vid and full of knowledge
Hey Adam,
How much comes off the OD of the roller? Looks like the insert worked better when the bore got a little bigger. I like ISCAR stuff. Good tools and good prices.
Best,
Tom
Hey Tom, thanks for stopping by. About 3/8" is machined off the OD. Yea the more the hole opened up the better the cut went.
Ive had and used ISCAR brand inserts, but its been a while since we've bought from them. They have promotions once in a while, gotta keep an eye on them. Buy some inserts and get free tool holders.
They have a lot of new products now. There old style parting and grooving tools have changed to a new style, as well as many of there other style tools too.
Thanks for watching Tom!
Master of the LATHE!!!
Machining looks so beautiful it's like watching a wound get cleaned
I enjoyed in Adam, can't wait to see the final product.
Thanks Mark! Part 2 coming soon!
@@Abom79 thank you for being here Adam America is in short supply of men like you. I'm afraid by design we need to put up a fight to change that and I feel if you know it or not in your own way you're doing just that. you are a good boy Adam I dig the hell out of you. I can't watch too long this sort of thing makes me miss my dad really bad. you never stop missing them. he's the reason I caught the metal bug he gave it to me early on. I don't know how the hell you get up every morning and drag your but to that shop and not just fall to pieces. you are not just a big strong good boy but you are stronger in ways I'll never be I wish we were real friends, from what I've seen Adam you'd be one hell of an ally. may blessing's falls on you like rain.
thanks adam really nice video
Why the fuck did I watch this entire thing at 3:30 AM when I never intend to machine anything in my life.
+Ch0plol I understand man, I completely get it, it's fucking weird but hey...it's a feel good thing too :P lol
Ch0plol because for some reason men love this shit
simply because a Machinist is a breed unto their own. I hope to have 1/10th of the skill Adam has- Love this stuff
10pm ahh in bed early let me just watch a few....... 3am DAMMIT
Ch0plol
Because how the stuff in this world we take for granted is actually made is quite fascinating.
Adam, you could sell those chips from that giant drill to bored housewives!
Looking good Adam 👍👍. Fred
5:50 lol when you are indicating I never take my eyes off the gauge
Thanks Abom nice work.
Great video thanks for sharing! Stay Safe!
the show was awesome dude I'm liking it
half a thousandths sounds like a tight fit nice chamforing and polishing good job
Adam you sure know your stuff, i like your videos, they are well made clear instructions and professional. from Bob in Seattle
Thank you Bob. I do try to include as much info as I can on what I'm doing during the machining process.
Excellent work and the finest super declares respect and even more success
Love seeing a great man work. Well done.....so far...lol
Who's Your Daddy "Disc"?! Huh? Who's Your Daddy?! I got you Bored, "DISC"! (Machinist Jargon). ;-)
Yes, this is from TV, not my actual life. Just so you know. Adam is a Master! He removes the gauge with such skill.
WOW, it is such a trip to see everything spinning backwards from how I'm accustomed to drilling holes! Those massive curly shavings are crazy looking and I'll bet they can slice up your paws pretty good, huh? I had to look away at 15:33 cause I got the creeps like I was watching surgery. I have a phobia of broken glass after breaking a bottle top off in my hand, and since I'd been drinking they wouldn't sew me up for some reason...I wasn't even tanked but must've reeked from spilling brew all over myself, LOL! I got out my Daddy's ZEE medical kit and stitched myself up since my girlfriend couldn't do it. I'm going to force myself to watch and break the curse, starting...NOW :)
Nice smooth running lathe.
That was fantastic, thanks for posting. You create more swarf in an afternoon than I create in a month. Makes me want to get a bigger lathe : )
Which reminds me it's about time to clean out the chip pan!!
You have to increase the feed when boring and use coolant to wash the chips out. and winding back with out winding off the cut with a carbide tip will always damage the edge . I made carbide for 7 years and then i was a CNC TURNER FOR 11 YEARS .
Nice work!
your a nicr guy adam for sharing your skills thanks
Nice job, finally a thread cut in steel
Adam .. nice work
Nice work my friend.
Good job 👍 well done
I'm sory. My english very little. You are a master at about machinery.
I like the way you do things and I agree you've a natural gift for instruction. Being a rookie, I wonder if you've thought of a tray for the top of the lathe to hold tools and parts that can easily be removed. Perhaps stationed with rare-earth magnets. Would this be advantageous or a "No-No"? Thanks! JD
Curious as to how that tighter bore looked after releasing the 4 jaw?
I've made quite a few of similar parts and givin' the right situation I
would run my lot requirement leaving the tight ID u/s then lightly inside chuck
on the open bore and finish out the tight bore...seemed like less headaches and less emory cloth to size it...Go Iscar
Great Job!! You Da Man!!
Great Video! I'm interested what are the exact dimensions of the stock, and most of all the chuck's grip length - it seems so narrow I feel the stock will fall off while turning. Did I hear correct - 1/4" ?
SWEET! Chamfer boring bar...never seen just using the square end of the tooling...looked and went "huh"...then "duh" to myself...
Chuck, play close attention....I'm trying to help you out buddy!!
I often use the 45 degree end of my boring bars to chamfer. Just use a factory end of a tool, or one you have ground. I just happened to use it that way because thats how I already had the bar clamped in the tool holder. If it was set on the 90 side, I would have used a different type of tool bit, like a style D.
Thanks for watching, I always look forward to you comments!
the coils hypnotrized me
Nice work, first time I have seen you use the suds pipe!! Plenty of water will save your tips as well......................
ótimo trabalho, ficou muito bom mesmo.
excelente gracias por los videos
Yes sir I'm trying to find out why sometimes you use liquid cooling other time you use oil and then there's times you use nothing what is the difference in the cutting material
Anyone knows why pulling back the boring bar, gives these spirals inside the hole? Is it because of chips on the cutting edge? How to avoid it except giving a little distance between the cutting tool and the hole?
HOLY shit that thing is out of round. Is all wobbling up and down while you were centering it. Then you turned it and it got all pretty.
Hi.
Could you please mention the dia of the drills you've used in that sequence ?
3/8 to chuck up ! Your braver than me !
are there internal vertical sheer tool's that you could make ?
🎬 Excellent 📹 Video 🎥! _ Congratulations! 👍 🇧🇷
Just a thought Adam, a small inspection mirror on the side of your indicator would make the needle movement really visible for the camera and you could aim the face at you more so your not trying to angle for us. I know, I’m being needy. I’m just thinking you’d come up with a cool gadget and vid making it
How is the bottle called which you use to lubricate the first and second drill?
That two tone finish is quite unique
Holy drill bit!!!
Hello Adam, can you tell me the speed of the spindle when drilling? I am a machining student. Can I find speed when drilling in book? Thank you so much!!!
Nice job my dely work
What is the noise that starts up when the lathe isn't spinning? Is the motor still running?
You should try cutting chuck groves in your work piece when chucking on such a small area. Gives you more stability and rigidity. Much safer.
We used on cnc lath it was 8 inch 316 material bloody heavy it was
Dude good information ..
If u made a pre bore on ID you can win some extra time at facing the material
Nice work m8 i have a little idea for that lead knocker maybe need some sort of handle on it maybe a piece 'pvc' or some kind of tubing the last thing you need is lead poising :)Have a good Christmas.
that drag-out looks substantial, almost like your cutter is mounted on a noodle,...is that spring in your bar?
Hi Adam. You always seem to put the internal dia gauge in long side up, then let it roll round in your fingers before you mic it. Why is that?
