Lol, first gets the machine, "Hey guys, we're not gonna be doing a crazy full resto on this one..." Fast forward and the machine is now several piles of parts. I love it, because we all know this is exactly how it always goes. As soon as you pull off that first part you've already committed, whether you're ready to admit it yet or not. 😂
Could you imagine what the cost would be to manufacture that lathe in the USA today?😳All those pieces, castings, bearings, gears, etc? It's amazing that companies were able to make these lathes back in the day and make a profit.
Send the gear cases out to the automotive machine shop for cleaning and degreasing. They have giant dishwashers for cleaning castings. Use Glyptal paint inside the gear cases, it’s made for that and it will aid in oil moving towards the bottom of the sump. The Glyptal is expensive but it will never chip or flake off a properly cleaned and degreased surface. Use #1201 or #74004 (two-part epoxy). Last, use a good two-part primer and two-part paint on the outside surfaces.
Damn brother this is the most involved "not a full restoration" ive ever seen lol Edit: the rapid being shaft driven is more common on old or large machines Before servo motors came around that was how rapid was handled. Even now on larger machines where the rapid motor needs to move serious mass like on 42" swing or bigger, youll see shaft driven rapids. Pacemakers and Axelsons had a similar rapid layout on the machines that had that option, on the pacemaker the shaft ran on the Backside of the bed tho. My old 32" pacemaker had that setup
This is Bulgagian lathe!! It's original name is C13 . One of the best lathes,that can outlast 3 generations. Unfortunately,in Bulgaria you can find them thrown in scrap yards.😢

Exactly
Love it Kyle, using the chuck as a puller is brilliant.
Thanks 👍
Very cool. I was surprised by the sheer number of gears in the apron.
Yeah the feed box is even worse
Absolutely amazing. I can't imagine the amount of design effort to produce such a machine. Thanks for taking the time to show this uninstall.
Our pleasure!
Bet your real glad you opened it up now new seals and bearings a few bushes this is gonna be some machine 👍👍👍👍
Definitely
For your intros, you need to stand on the Lion bed playing a heavy metal guitar riff with your hair flying around. It would look so cool!
Yes agreed
I second that!
Happy Saturday 💪
Same to you!

Yeah it’s crazy right
Another quality video. Thank you, Kyle!
My pleasure!
Goodness you are in it now. 😀
Yes I am!

Already on top of it. Glyptal paint acquired. Gearboxes cleaned. 2k paint on everything

Yeah this resto is full blown at this point. Good point on traverse shafts
The apron remove is a good idea , so you can get look for imperfects.
Indeed
I’d have never considered putting a Chuck on that apron shaft…..nice!
Yeah weird strategy right

Said but I believe it
That apron looked really good and clean, but hey whatever, its your decision and time.
Yes
yikes, that looks like it could be interesting to put it back together. can you let us know how it goes putting it back together?
Yep you will def know about it
9:28 looks like you need to remove a link from the chain so the tensioner has travel.
Yeah maybe I’ll figure that out on assembly. Thanks for heads up
What brand of puller were you using the impact on?
OTC
Thank you
Tie rod puller? That is the only thing that I saw that was similar.
@@scottjones7279 I used a couple pullers what point in video are you talking about and I can get you the model number
