  • I'll be getting the pin turned and finished in this video. We'll use the old Monarch lathe to make some fun roughing passes and use the LNMX insert tool. Once this is finished we'll be ready to weld the flange to the end. The next episode will include all of the welding for both the pin and the column base.

    Talking purely for us, this is the Abom we've came to enjoy, turning, machining and nothing else, that's what drew us to his channel, and encouraged us to build our own milling machine from scratch and working on a lathe from scratch as well!! We see he's putting everything into these parts and we try to do the same, please keep up this kind of content because you never know who you'll inspire to keep the art of the machinist's going!!!!

    Tips for protecting the camera.
    You can use mirrors to get closer to things that can break a camera, cheap vanity mirrors for car sun visors work well as they’re plastic usually.
    For splashing you can set a fan to blow splashes away from the camera, a tube focusing the air flow down and across the view field will redirect almost all splashes.

    Love your vids Adam, whether shop stuff, BBQ stuff or travel stuff, always informative and entertaining. This vid, though not explicit, showed me what I’ve been doing wrong when using telescoping gages. I saw that you adjust the micrometer as you sweep the gage,…… I always tried to touch the gage like I would measuring a solid part, being careful to try not to move the telescoping gage, but never quite got the hang of it. Now, just as the ‘Always Check Your Threads’ voice goes through my head every time I cuts threads, a mental image of you using a telescoping gage will be with me every time I use one in the future.

    Thanks for talking a little more lately; I enjoyed that! Especially the chat in Ep 2.during the drilling, kinda explaining what you're about. I distinctly recall you saying in your early videos "I'm just showing you how I do it -- I know people do it different ways." It must have been easier in those days in some ways, with the smaller subscriber group! If you get 1% of a thousand people with a crusty attitude, that's not too bad -- ten people. Meh. But if you get 1% of half a million... that's 5,000 people! But maybe still ignorable. You sure wouldn't want to let them steer the ship!😁

    I saw your video about the problems with the gopro hero 9 and like this segment, audio only in the left ear. In your video editor you can often convert an audio clip from 'stereo' to 'mono' this will just put the audio in both ears equally, and should allow you to not have only one ear audible. Great content as usual!

    Adam; I think the bulk of the viewers like your Monarch because it's "Old American Iron"; I am in the process of cleaning up and restoring/rebuilding a 42" (small compared to what you use) Atlas Lathe; the ways (full length) with head stock & tail stock removed is only 42 inches and I will be using it for hobby machining with my mini mill that I have.
