Those are the big daddy of t-nuts. They must be at least six times the size of the ones on my mill. Great job Matty. Do like your new lathe sticker. Cheers Nobby
Gday Nobby, your mail arrived yesterday and hopefully have it in next weeks video, the new sticker are printed on clear vinyl so they should last a lot longer, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Good to get the Cincinnati into horizontal mode, a bit of old timer machining. More work involved milling that part than many would appreciate I'm sure, nice job!
Gday Nigel, the Cincinnati will more then likely stay setup as a horizontal mill now, there’s quite a bit that goes into this simple job, appreciate you watching mate, cheers
Hey Matty, from da Bronx, as always, thanks for sharing your Shed Time. Keep up your strength 💪 P.S. great opening shot of how intense the rain is today.
great to see you getting on with it Matty . new mill is great . I think the x axis needs attention on the good old cincinati . do i forsee a scraping video coming . Great video mate , Cheers Ade #
Love the sticker Rod made for your lathe... Those T-Nut's are real beefy, hope the viewer can share photo of the nuts being used. Funny how a desire for an straightforward job on a rainy day, can often bite ass in many different ways, but you got there in the end.
Gday, the sticker has a clear vinyl over the top so it should last a lot longer hopefully, nothing ever goes smooth when you want it to mate, thanks for watching, cheers
Hi Matty, you should know mate ,as soon as you say it,s gonna be a nice easy , all help breaks loose. But hey, you being you ,it came out great. Don,t be w ok doing too hard mate, Regards Mike
Gday Matty always enjoy watching horizontal mill work my mill has a separate drive and spindle in the column so I set it up for horizontal cutting whenever I get the chance cheers for another cool video
HI Rod. . Great stickers. Nice job Matty. . even if you had all kinds of problems. Great job working around the issue and solving the problem to get a "simple" job done. . Have a Great Weekend.
Gday Paul, the new sticker has a clear vinyl over the top so it should last a lot longer, a simple job never works out that simple mate, thanks for watching
Hiya Matty, hard spots in steel can be a pain in the backside. Many years ago we were machining S96 steel blocks, that steel has 2.5% nickel, chromium-molybdenum. It was a nightmare, luckily the foundry accepted the blame, still didn't help us machine the breeches on a MoD contract. We played about with feeds, speeds and tooling. That helped but it was still very disheartening. Recently we've had an increase of 256% of the normal rainfall. Regards to you and the family, stay safe and well 👍
Gday, I’m thinking it’s the material as well as wear in the machine, I’ve used other trailer axles before and it’s machined beautifully, thanks for watching
I was getting flashbacks from the last time I was in Okinawa, I'd been voluentold for Typhoon duty, it rains like that during a Typhoon, it just goes on 8~12 hours at a time.
G'day Matty. The "T" nuts section worked out really well. The fine finish with the Fly Cutter came out great. You must have had the Fly Cutter close to the Base, I was waiting for a few marks in the table
It could be play in the "Y" axis on the Cinncinati mill? Lock up the "X", just drop a clock on it and put some force on it. Worst case its only worn in a smallish area. I did notice sparks from the fly cutter, so more force?= Nice job Matty, plenty of metal removal 👌. Hello Rod. Thanks for sharing.
In America your videos come out around 11:30 at night, was I dreaming or did you have some pretty girls in your video, brushing coolant all over your shoulders wearing pink bikini's and dark sunglasses. Great video this week. I remember was HORIZONTAL MILLING AND VIEWER JOB. I think your going to get a whole lot of new subscribers. Keep of the good work, and helping out "Viewer Job"
G'day Matty, nice to see you fella, nothing wrong with a nice steady job mate, thoroughly enjoyed seeing the horizontal mill action, now you have the Bridgeport, maybe you will leave it set horizontal like 👍🏻 Hope your keeping well and thanks for sharing
Gday Ralfy, I don’t think the head will be going back on the Cincinnati for a while now, certainly different to use that for sure, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Good work Matty. In my experience horizontal mills have much better rigidity than turret mills and that is clearly illustrated here. But horses for courses, and the turret mill easily wins in the flexibility stakes. Definitely useful to have both on hand.
Morning from UK Matty, we had rain so I feel your pain lol Sometimes a nice simple job can soothe you Not going to comment on the play just glad to see you back in the shop and looking pretty good again
Well it turned out well in the end Matty. Never done any horizontal milling . My machine is vertical only & probably only a 1/4 the size of yours. I cannot take deep cuts like you did , as the machine would take off. Deepest with my facemills are about 0.25mm per cut. Any more & it does not like it. Hope you are ok & see you on the next one. Steve.
Gday Steve, I’m going ok thanks mate, I still have some learning to do on the new mill with how much I can take on a cut, so far I’m pretty happy with it, thanks for watching
Hey Matty. The variable finish on the Horizontal may be something to foo with the ‘climb milling’, combined with some variations (from wear) in the X axis lead screw?? Just a thought… Whatever….. the job turned out fine. Those Tee nuts will be big suckers eh? 🤣 Robert
Gday Robert, the Cincinnati certainly has it fair share of wear, I not sure what I’ll end up doing there to be honest, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Hiya Matty I think a cobalt roughing endmill would make for an easier go of it on the Knee mill. Alot less tool pressure and a deeper cut. Save you some time.
Perhaps while it's off the machine you could build a bar to attach to the head with a lift point where the weight is balanced to make removing and installing easier.
Nice work - sometimes it’s good to knock something simple out. It results in a completed project in short order, which is satisfying. There is a lot to be said for “small wins”. I don’t know what might be causing that “break” pattern after flycutting. Curious - I’d love to know the reason if it ever comes to light - although it’s really just a surface texture. Overall looks excellent - but I totally appreciate how you are concerned about the fine details. Cheers! 👍👍
Matty, based on the changing surface pattern you got when using the Cincinnati, my guess is that the table swiveled as the tool pressure changed. If you can't adjust your gibs to eliminate that pattern, you may get to machine and/or scrape the worn surfaces. Good luck!
another great video, keep em coming, l have what l hope is not a dumb question, is it not possible to have a central sump for coolant, and have each machine draw from of, and drain back to it, it looks like coolant sumps are not high up on the list when machines are designed, judging by the belt drawing out the sludge.
Gday, theres no such thing as a dumb question mate, this could be done but I think it would require a lot of plumbing and a bigger pump, the lines would more then likely have to be over head to feed each machine, if all the machines were along say one wall side by side it would be quite easy to do, Thanks for watching, Cheers
Hi Matty, from Cumbria, UK, Had you considered the square bar is probably end of a bar? I got a lot of large offcuts which were end of bar off cuts for free, they are OK but can be very unpredictable as for how they cut. End of bar cools quicker and sometimes the mill rollers don't press as hard or press harder at the end of the bar so for critical components many engineering shops dispose of the bar ends, not worth the trouble. Seeing your horizontal mill make me yearn for my old Denbigh flat belt mill. Great old tool, I even used it for line boring motorcycle engine crank bearing housings.
Gday, I think your spot on with the material, Ive machined plenty of trailer axles which this is what this is before and never had any problems, between the material and wear in the machine it made the job a little bit more challenging, thanks for watching mate, cheers
G’day mate, thanks for your time and the video mate. Have a good one 👍🇦🇺
Appreciate you watch mate, cheers
Got there in the end 👍
Only just
Milling troubles ... Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug!
Nice sticker too!!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Definitely the bug this week mate, thanks for watching
Geez Matty! Watch those bloody Queenslanders mate! Keep ‘em away from your bananas! They’ll bend the lot!
Thanks for posting, enjoyed it.
I know a few Queenslanders and they seem to be alright mate, Thanks for watching, Cheers
Hi mate beautiful job. You make it look easy. Great to watch. All the best
Gday Steve, This was a pretty easy job and I didn't feel like using to many brain cells this week, Thanks for watching mate, cheers
@@MattysWorkshop I would have used a fair few of my cells doing it mate, but I’m not familiar with those machines either. Always a pleasure
thank matty for that just need to make a table to hold the plate
No worries at all, I’ll get it posted off next week, cheers
Thanks for another great video Matty, keep em coming, God bless.
Thanks mate

Looks like you put the "T" in T-nut there. Supposed to rain all day tomorrow here. We are a bit dry so we could use some.
Gday Tom, still can’t believe it mate, still shocked to be honest, the rain has gone here now mate, thanks for watching
Hey Matty, from da Bronx, as always, thanks for sharing your Shed Time. Keep up your strength 💪
P.S. great opening shot of how intense the rain is today.
Gday, it was a good drop of rain we had, appreciate you watching as always mate, cheers
great to see you getting on with it Matty . new mill is great . I think the x axis needs attention on the good old cincinati . do i forsee a scraping video coming . Great video mate , Cheers Ade

Gday Ade, I can confidently say that you’ll never see a scraping video here mate, that’s way above my ability’s, thanks for watching, cheers
Thx for the vid.
Appreciate you watching mate
Great video Matty, keep'um coming..
Thanks mate, Appreciate you watching, Cheers
Nice to have more than 1 milling machine for different set-ups. Thanks for sharing. Great Job.
Gday, it is good but I prefer the new one to be honest, thanks for watching

👏🏻 great job ! Those t nuts will last forever! Thanks for sharing with us. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Gday, there quite large mate, thanks for watching
Hi Matty, you should know mate ,as soon as you say it,s gonna be a nice easy , all help breaks loose. But hey, you being you ,it came out great.
Don,t be w ok doing too hard mate,

Gday, I thought it was going to be a simple easy job but like normal I said that to soon, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Great job Matty ultra precise tee nut blank. Your viewer will be well pleased wih it. Cheers Tony
Thank Tony, probably no need to be so accurate but why not mate, thanks for watching
It's really useful to have a horizontal and a vertical set up available without having to take of the head! All the best, Matthew
Gday, I don’t think the head will be going back on anytime soon mate, thanks for watching
Good work as always Matty. Looks like you had a heap of rain there.
Thanks John, we had a decent drop over a few days, Thanks for watching, Cheers
Gday Matty always enjoy watching horizontal mill work my mill has a separate drive and spindle in the column so I set it up for horizontal cutting whenever I get the chance cheers for another cool video
Gday, definitely completely different to operate when it’s setup as a horizontal mill, thanks for watching mate, cheers

Thanks Matty, great video the thing I appreciate is there's no :bull: you get what you get... Till next week,have a good one
Gday, get what ya giv’in here mate, I don’t doll anything up and say it how it is, appreciate you watching mate, cheers
9:46 I like this angle a lot as well Matty. It is working nicely.
Thanks mate, easy to setup there too, thanks for watching
Some fancy T nuts. Nice work though there Matty. Thanks for sharing.

Gday Kev, it’s been one of them weeks mate, appreciate you watching, cheers
I have heard of people stacking weights at the end on a warn table to make it stay flat. It keeps it from rocking. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve heard that before to mate, thanks for watching
I was getting flashbacks from the last time I was in Okinawa, I'd been voluentold for Typhoon duty, it rains like that during a Typhoon, it just goes on 8~12 hours at a time.
G'day Matty. The "T" nuts section worked out really well. The fine finish with the Fly Cutter came out great.
You must have had the Fly Cutter close to the Base, I was waiting for a few marks in the table
Gday Ted, the collet nut was closer to hitting the table then the cutter, wasn’t much room left, thanks for watching
Dry as a bone here in Johannesburg, want to send the rain our way when you are done with it? Good to see you on your pegs and looking healthy mate!
Gday, rains gone here now and hopefully you’ll get it soon, appreciate you watching mate, cheers
It could be play in the "Y" axis on the Cinncinati mill? Lock up the "X", just drop a clock on it and put some force on it. Worst case its only worn in a smallish area.
I did notice sparks from the fly cutter, so more force?=
Nice job Matty, plenty of metal removal 👌.
Hello Rod.
Thanks for sharing.
Gday, I got some working out to do in the Cincinnati for sure, it’s got a lot of age in it now and that only means one thing mate, thanks for watching
thats a cool oil skimmer, my hotsy parts cleaner has a stainless steel disc with scraper blades that runs through the sump...
Gday, I built this a while ago out of crap I had lying around, cheaper then buy one mate, cheers
Hi Matty, despite the setbacks it came right in the end - blame it on the rain - LOL. Regards, Dave
It was the rain for sure mate, thanks for watching

Gday Ralfy, I don’t think the head will be going back on the Cincinnati for a while now, certainly different to use that for sure, thanks for watching mate, cheers
good job,, good sticker! those milling heads can be bloody heavy, my other mill is a Victoria from the 50s and i can't lift the head without injury!!👍
Gday Graedon, it’s hard to believe how heavy the mill head is, I can’t lift this one at all, thanks for watching
Good work Matty. In my experience horizontal mills have much better rigidity than turret mills and that is clearly illustrated here. But horses for courses, and the turret mill easily wins in the flexibility stakes. Definitely useful to have both on hand.
Gday Alan, certainly more rigid but certainly a lot different to operate, I think I prefer the new mill a lot more, thanks for watching, cheers

Sometimes a nice simple job can soothe you
Not going to comment on the play just glad to see you back in the shop and looking pretty good again
Gday, it’s good to have a simple job now and then, thanks for watching
Forgot about the Speed Controller. Great stuff.😮 Try an Annular Cutter as an end mill, I find it works quite well.
Gday Mark, the speed control still works good and I must try that one day, thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing 👍
Appreciate you watching mate
Matty you dropped your ratchet mate, just there on the floor, no no over there 🤣
Thanks mate, stop looking I found it
Great another Matty video.

Gday, there’s something going on there mate with that dro, just have to sort it out, thanks for watching
you got rain We got snow in New York ..
👍
Appreciate you watching mate, cheers
Hey Matty.
The variable finish on the Horizontal may be something to foo with the ‘climb milling’, combined with some variations (from wear) in the X axis lead screw??
Just a thought…
Whatever….. the job turned out fine.
Those Tee nuts will be big suckers eh?

Gday Robert, the Cincinnati certainly has it fair share of wear, I not sure what I’ll end up doing there to be honest, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Very nice component...Thank You...
Thanks for watching
Hi Matty. In the end nothing as good as fly cutter. Beefy T nuts or what 😮
Gday, the fly cutter very rarely fails mate, thanks for watching
God speed to you Matty
Thanks for watching
Hiya Matty I think a cobalt roughing endmill would make for an easier go of it on the Knee mill. Alot less tool pressure and a deeper cut. Save you some time.
Gday, I’m about to order some new endmills shortly now I have the spindle speed to run carbide, thanks for watching
Perhaps while it's off the machine you could build a bar to attach to the head with a lift point where the weight is balanced to make removing and installing easier.
Gday, I don’t plan on putting it back on anytime soon but I really like that idea mate, thanks

Gday, I’m thinking it’s a combination of material and wear in the mill, the material had hard spots as well, thanks for watching
Thanks
Thanks for watching
good video matty
Thanks mate, cheers
Matty, based on the changing surface pattern you got when using the Cincinnati, my guess is that the table swiveled as the tool pressure changed. If you can't adjust your gibs to eliminate that pattern, you may get to machine and/or scrape the worn surfaces. Good luck!
Gday, The Cincinnati certainly needs some work, Its well worn but worn well, Thanks for watching, cheers
The strange pattern you get could well come from some play in the X or Y. It's maybe a good idea to check the gibs.
Gday, I believe it’s a combination of wear and the material in the end, thanks for watching
G'day Matty another great video mate 👍
Thanks very much mate, cheers

Hi Matt. I think the Cincinnati just needs some fine tuning. When you do your next video how about a walk around to show off the wild life.
Gday, needs a lot of fine tuning mate, I should show the wildlife one day, plenty here most of the time, thanks for watching
Yes, pleeeeeeease.

I’m never on the level of anything mate🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hi Matty, I see patterns similar to that when flycutting cylinder heads, a new insert cures it .....
Gday Darren, as normal I didn’t have any inserts left but I was sure I did have, appreciate you watching, cheers
Did Cincinnati offer a parking attachment for the vertical head like some of the K&T folks have showcased? Another shop project on the list...
Gday, I don’t believe they did, I have looked at making something but the shape of the casting makes it’s difficult to do, thanks for watching
👍 Good job Matty. I wonder what the go with the face mill is? Looks rigid enough. All the best mate. Cheers
Gday, I have a fair idea what’s going on mate, tell ya one day, thanks for watching, cheers
Do you ever have trouble finding your welder mate? 😁
No mate, it’s under the cover

I’m doing ok thanks, not quite 100% yet but it’s only time, cheers
