    That visual effect at the end when you are time lapsing is absolutely psychedelic. Cool video, brother. Thanks!

    Do you have a link to the 4 Jaw you bought? Also a suggestion is to AC glue the threads in nits then use the nuts as work holding, when you want it off soak in acetone to dissolve the glue.

    You can buy a quantity of that bolts from "Arc Euro Trade", sorry now they are out from Europe ( the company is based in England ), so buying is not so "straight forward" as before. I bought a couple of dozen, after having overtight the original bolts ( and happily i was able to turn them off of the chuck ... ).
    Don't you see how your bolts are not ALL threated ? A common screw is not the ideal solution, even if cutted at right lenght. And also, are you sure to change the bolts from a three jaw chuck to the four jaws chuck and reverse, every time you'll have to change chuck ?
    Believe me, changing chuck is not so uncommon as you can think now, at the beginning of your lathe experience.

      Hopefully folks can tell I have no idea what I'm doing, comments like yours are great for helping me and everyone else learn from my mistakes.

    If the tool was at the correct height the screw was hanging out of the chuck too far,allowing deflection!

      The tool was definitely not at the right height, this is when I learned that tool sizes are important to pay attention to 😂

    The intent of this video was good. However, watching this video scared the crap outta me, for the machine operator. I have this same machine for small projects at home. I’m not a professional machinist, I had some training back in high school, back in the day when they had shop classes. In our metal shop we had, no pun intended, “old school” Bridgeport mills and lathes. I still remember watching the safety films about what happens if the setup is incorrect, the wrong cutting tool is used, LOOSE MATERIAL flying outta the chuck, inserting tools on any part of the machine while it is in operation and using substandard hardware on the machine to replace or repair parts (E.G. using grade 2.2 or grade 5 bolts machined down to make stud bolts that can fit into the chuck that should at a minimum be grade 8 or higher stud bolts)… I also remember the shop teacher saying every morning “15 minutes of a good equipment inspection and proper setup will save time and money in screwed up equipment and project materials, not to mention a trip to the hospital or mortuary”. I ain’t hatin, I’m just sayin.

      I tried to make it obvious in all of these videos these were more about "watch an idiot discover how not to play with dangerous things" - mostly because I was going to learn on my own anyways and I figured others could watch me make mistakes rather than repeat them.
      Hopefully any folks watching read the comments like yours and take note

      @@RRFTube - I get it.. I didn’t realize you were flying by the seat of your pants until I finished the video and read some of the comments 😂. But it did scare the crap outta me, seeing the deflection and the material moving as you were turning. That is a lot of unnecessary risk for the sake of learning and showing viewers your learning curve. I just don’t want you to get injured… new fingers are hard to come by these days 😜

      @@Patriot_Drone_Services Thanks, I added a note to all the descriptions to make it more clear that these were my literal first attempts at any of this, not demonstrations to follow. Even with such a tiny machine it became clear pretty quickly that it could still do a lot of damage. Shop classes would probably have saved me a couple hard lessons for sure.

    Brother man before using any machine go and get some training first ,because you look like you will harm yourself 😂

    You are cutting more on the return pass whis show you lathe is bad setup now. You have too much sloppyness in your setup End Will change machine big time if fixed
