If my father had seen this he would have feinted with envy! Around 1955 he set up a one-man precision engineering shop in our basement. He took on production runs of small components. One contract was to produce many thousands of tapered fittings to be soldered onto the ends of copper tube used in industrial fire sprinkler systems.
He adapted a small capstan lathe to automatic operation, using sequenced pneumatic cylinders. It was a bit cantankerous until it was warmed up, and calibrated... after that it hissed, sneezed, and clunked, filling box after box with goodies! A stepper motor and controller would have been like something out of a Buck Rogers sci-fi movie! Time moves on... 😉
Damn that’s impressive and well illustrated to the point where I can see how far it’s with lathes lol 70 year jump with simply wires and programming
This is why we can have nice things.
This is some of the best content on youtube. All of your projects are just so well thought out and elegant.
Beautiful work, sir! Now I know what to do, at least in general, with my Taig mill and lathe.
Excellent work 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦
I am delighted to see the machine components and where assembly is critical to function. Thank you for posting. At my workbench, I am having fun with a quite ancient
1935 South bend C model. But which came with some wear as component, thus lessened precision...but very fun, very amusing to toolbar end use as 1 meter bed
potential to project. At the needs to typical mechanical function, soft component as brass, al are fine to needs. So I now plan to simply expand my bench with some
very similar build. And take notice as where rigid mounting, light, various tool component storage...are among first build consider to project. As intended to work function.
I really was able to see your drilling and thread task, which is very useful to where I execute parallel part.
Hoping to see more and gain from your insight. Regards from Washington State, US. McGary
nice work it's good to see what kind of tools you're working on!
It's good that there are such people. After watching this content, I want to do something useful. Great channel, positive and informative. Good luck in your hard work.
Awesome work
Jean-François
Well done and fair play 👍
Pretty cool setup!
Very smart! Life is easier with that tools.
Nice work. I've seen people that upgrade their Dremel manual lathe with electronics so that it can run like an automatic mill. Very inspiring to see! Those Dremel mills aren't that expensive and they are great for beginners.
Like a hand held Dremel?? That’s a pretty good idea, would it be stationery vertically upright?
Nice machine! CNC horizontal mill. Excellent!
For those of you that are curious, 160,000 Rubles is equal to around $2370 US.
But what in where frome exactly
@@thebrizzell Rubles is russian if i remember
Да. Мы знаем.
Yes. We know it
Great content! Impressed!
This is an excellent machine. Thank for posting this video.!
Nice. You should have included a list of components, motor specs, and a link to buy. That would be awesome!
This is an awesome project! I would love to see a video in depth, please also make a DIY of this, thank you!
Very nice!
Super Video!
Love it! ❤️
This was an excellent video. I love your new machine. We use collets at work. My job is to laser hydraulic parts. We have another machine called a Pinstamper. It's like an engraver. So we use the collets to hold the parts to be engraved. P.S. I figured out how to change the collets all by myself. No one else knew how. ☺️ Yay me!
Good job! 👍 👏
Well, that is certainly the longest cross slide I have seen on a lathe. You can set that up with a huge number of gang tools. Very Nice!
Great design, thank you for posting the video. Would it be possible to provide more details (future video) on the software to drive the two stepper motors for threading, i.e. the free open source code?
You are a Genius! ❤❤😊
love the machine!
The great advantage of an extra long cross slide is you can use it as a turret, there's enough space to mount multiple tools with clearance, even drill chucks.
They call it a "gang lathe". Turret is when its on a spinning wheel of tools attached to the tailstock or a atc axis.
@@Eluderatnight At work I use a Webster and Bennett boring mill with a 5 position turret, the boring bar permanently mounted on it is about 4 foot long, which means you have to move the slide all the way to one side to get the clearance to rotate the turret. It's a beast of a machine, you can take a 1/2 inch cut and barely notice. The thing I don't like about it, is the slowest speed (5 RPM) is one notch away from the highest speed - 150 RPM, and you don't want a 350kg casting spinning that fast when you're still truing it up.
Wow & Marvelous
Nice modification of Taig Turn, however Taig sold Turn CNC ready version. I like that you use Servo Motor, and Tool made from Milling attachment of Taig Mini.
Damn kid you could go places if you lived in America . It is talent like yours that make America such a great place .
Nice!
Excelente!!!
Amazing
2:14 My concern with your coupler is that there is no allowance for misalignment of the motor to the lead screw. Unless your alignment is perfect, you may very well end up with something in there, like your bearings, wearing out prematurely. Fascinating build; thank you very much for your video.
Very clever and practical machine ! Nice job ! sub'd
Awesome machine! The long tool table really creates a great platform for endless possibilities!
What a great machine! Nice job. How much lash are you seeing? What accuracy / repeatability can you achieve?
this is what I call art
keep up the great work ❤️
Szuper machine!
what software do you use to control the stepper motor drivers and where can i find this wonderful project the step by step for me to have a machine like this at home too
Levsha, I see you working with brass. Really pretty to watch. But could it also work with steel or even stainless steel?
I'm building a CNC lathe myself in the next few weeks, and I was always curious about what CAM you use for this ? how to set up the cam to use the 2 different sides / tools ?
please make a series on teaching us how to mill metal parts and how to design them
Great work! Keep posting updates on it!
Just found your channel and love your videos especially this one as I am working on a very similar project. What software are you using to control everything or are you just hard coding the Arduino as needed for each function? Thanks
I have this mill and the plastic "bushings" between the motors and the lead screw are made from the plastic tubes that holds the ink for a bic style pen. Just find an empty pen and cut up the tube into pieces. I don't think your brass pins are going to have enough play and could wear out that bearing faster than it should.
Which servo brand are you using for the spindle?
awesome creation friend
I love these small cnc machines..
needs bar feeder and bar puller
vertical Zed axis maybe gang tool arrangement?
5 axis DIY "Pocket NC" would be awesome
thats a few more thousand dollars xD there's an asian company selling a more affordable pocket cnc but I dont remember de name
@@knoopx : I think "Yu Toob" was suggesting continuing to develop this machine into a Do-It-Yourself Pocket NC.
It certainly is a good base for such a project.
How can an Arduino control all this, and how do you send the the programs to the arduino?
Good MaChiNe !
For the handle, you should have made it turn in your fingers so that it is easier to turn. I was a machinist for 20 years, I made everything, so I enjoy your craftsmanship
Which cylinder do you using for reverse and forward.
Bravo
where do you get your lathe cutters?
I have seen this setup before on most DIY CNC lathes as the cross slide will hold more than one tool but you went and bought stuff from sherline.
Hi! Great job! Wich firmware did you use with arduino? Thanks a lot
Excellent. I also made a burr, but a little bigger😅
Very good work, congratulations!!! What electronics do you use and what software?
👏👏😱 great work
Where do you buy / find your parts?
Hello, what kind of motor is used in the spindle?
Best regards
Does the Z axis capable for milling on this lathe?
Озвучка четкая) подписчик основного канала)
what kind motor sevro for you chuck
The cheezel! 😂
SUBSCRIBED
How you made the programme gor the Arduino?
Cool CNC lathe. Been thinking about making one for ages. The bigger collets would make it much more useful.
how you setting spindel? thanks
Now, put the spindle assembly on the Z axis, only allow the table to move on the X axis, put a wall between the spindle and the tooling, with another small collet for the spindle to feed the bar stock through (spoiler alert we call it a guide bushing), and boom, you have a Swiss lathe
Ты внатуре красава !!!
Going further, it looks like a great way to make a gang tool lathe, with a slightly more robust spindle.
What CNC software do you use? GRBL? Mach 3? What are drivers for the steppers? Thank you!
Can you tell me, please. What softwear do you use?
what servo motor
nicely done man
It's certainly far from being the only one of its kind. Oh, including the tiny dimensions and lack of rigidity? If you take that into consideration, then yes... that makes it sort of unique.
This reminds me of a swiss lathe
Witch software you juse?
Wait, why not convert the sherlines into cnc? They sell kits to convert directly from Sherline, the company. Great work regardless! Would love to see the wiring and software usage!
I would like to see that happen
He mentioned at the beginning of the video the difficulties he had just getting the base machine that he started with.
If he's in a country that the US restricts exports to, getting the conversion kit would probably be a huge headache for him
@@frontiervirtcharter You have a very limited understanding of the effect of sanctions on “a country to which the United States restricts exports.” Seven-eighths of the planet's population doesn't care about them, so we have everything we need. And yes, Sherline sets are freely sold here, but they are just a set of children's toys, compared to the parts in the author's video. If you buy something from the more serious Sherline's series, you will lose about six times in terms of price/quality.
that looks like a perfect hobbyist lathe
Sir can u share the link of this machine
This is basically a TAIGTurn lathe
Very interested in what software you're using to make this thing run. Linuxcnc?
He already says this is the video. Listen closely next time.
Thanks mom
@@gilesclement you're welcome, tiger.
more info from that servo motor. taig original is just too big and its not come EU version?
Рекомендую припаять провода к обратной стороне ардуино, т.к. эти pbs разъемы со временем окисляются и теряют контакт. На моем чпу станке это чуть не привело к пожару. В моем случае ось z перестала подниматься и работающий шпиндель заглубился в жертвенный стол из фанеры на длительное время.
They're electric motors not engines
Keep up the good work
nema 23 brushless stepping motors actually xD
Well, plenty of people call car engines "motors" in the US. I don't know why they do this.
Motors are powered only by electricity. Engines use combustive fuels.
Beautiful fucking lathe mate
Very nice for small parts. What control system are you running on the arduino?
what control software you are using?
He already says this in the video. Listen carefully next time.
@@russkydeutsch my bad, I might have missed it. I have hearing issues, but you don't have to answer so rudely.
Cost 160,000 Rubles is equal to around $2,370 US / Au $3,135 bucks
handy for making parts
I want to buy this
CNC taig lathe mods are fairly common so I definitely wouldn't try to claim that it's the only one of its kind
It is if he basically made it himself. That's unique.
@@barrychopsticksThis isn't exactly the same as a TaigTurn. TaigTurn lathes do not have the additional vertical axis. (They also cost more.) The machine is somewhat unique.
@@barrychopsticks I'm not talking about the Taig part. I'm talking about the vertical mount that has stepper on top of it. It's direction of movement is perpendicular to the axis of the Taig and the bed. I'm not sure if you'd call it Z or not.
"Probably the only one of it's kind!" Well, yeah. That's what unique means.
its just taig lathe and is that milling attacment when could just use another tool holder xD.
AND taig would sell more machine if they make them available easier world wide.
im not even sure will they ship them and those "partner sellers"
one in UK kinda sell manual smallest thingy.
one in russian (lets forget it)
only need BUY button in original and it tell it ship europe. its easy make money when make it easier
i would be totally getting one for a final price of 1500 eur if that was possible
plz send Deatails about it..
So, probably unique.
Almost a Mini Horizontal Mill, just need Spindle Axis Movement
it looks like sherline
