I am not an expert, shit I've never driven a lathe, Claugh42 did a video on parting and he ran his shit all out, maxed out everything. Have no idea if it would help and I just wanted to put my 2 American pennies in before their worth crap. Love this series, watched them all so far and all I'm gonna say is FANTASTIC job. YOU have some MAD skills SIR! keep it up
@@4pawsforge273 thanks mate 👍👍 Yeah I’ve seen the majority of Claugh’s stuff as well. I used to run it flat out. Got told I’m doing it wrong… then went slow, and now I’m wrecking shit 😆 In saying that though, I was never power feeding fast. I’ve got to look at gearing etc and try slow the feed rate some more. Just have to find the time. It’s also a confidence knock I’ve gotta get over! I know what you’re saying about the Pennie’s mate…. Oh, it’s coming! They all know it too. Anyway, thanks heaps for tuning in… Appreciate it 👍👍
@@MyMiniHomeWorkshop cheers mate 👍 I’m sure there’s a million different better ways to do it, but it worked. Eg: a guy on a fb group I’m on suggested a spacer between bearings, measured correctly etc, so you get the correct amount of preload and can’t over tighten. Made a heap of sense. I think the only real thing it’s got going for it is that it’s never going to be any kind of high speed spindle, obviously. Even if it were too tight, the effect on the bearing would probably become evident in my next lifetime 😆 Especially with the amount of use it would get also. I dunno… it works 🤷♂️ 👍
Its nice with a topslide on the lathe :)

You’re one behind mate 😆
Catch up!!
You’ll be another one behind by the time you read this too 😬😉
I see what you meant about your adjustment, well done. 👍

Is the slitting-saw-ring with set screws your locking ring? The screws cause the ring's threads to grab the spindle threads?
@@chip-load yeh when you tighten the set screws it causes the the rings threads to spread slightly and lock onto the threads of the spindle.
