Can confidently say I have no idea what’s going on for most of this, but it’s fascinating to see the complexity behind these machines and you’re a great story teller, so you’ve got me hooked
This is really well done. I love the dark aesthetic. It compliments the depressing undertones that reflect the reality of every DIY project we chose to curse our own lives with.
Very refreshing to see someone on here being persistent with using their brain. There are a lot of people on youtube buying expensive stuff to ruin it. Doing the opposite is not only way harder (leaving the money aspect aside) but is also so much more satisfying to watch. And the humour you fabricate out of self-criticism is gold. Thank you!
videos like this are few and far between, no small floating video in the corner of my screen while i continue to play a game. no phone. no idle face stuffing. house could be burning but only this has my attention and it flies by in a snap. thanks for the video ❤
I work in a Company that build SK and HSK Spindels and the Tool Holders here in Germany. The fact that you could get that runout into this specs is impressive. Seems like you are not forsaken and the Gods smiled upon your effort :)
Don't take this as a criticism, but I would like to give you some tips for your griding setup. A spindle taper is not that difficult to grind, but never use feeds other than single axis. This adds up to the machine's errors and backlash, and very few CNC milling machines are precise enough to properly perform grinding to the precision required for BT30 using feeds in multiple axes. Typically, the attachment with its own feed is placed on the table, ensuring that it is perfectly parallel to the wall of the taper, but if you prefer to use the machine feed, you need to mount the spindle at an angle and the grinder vertically. You should move only Z-axis. Use a dye to check your progress and correct the angle if the top or bottom stops making a contact. Also make sure you're not pushing the grinder away, make empty feeds every few passes until the sparks disappear and the spindle is quiet, and then continue. As for the bearings in Chinese spindles, they are terrible. It's best to buy the first one you find from Japan/USA/Europe. If you have a lathe, you can easily make a better housing out of a piece of steel or at least aluminum. I feel like you know how to do it. Manual spindle scraping is only carried out on quills and mounting surfaces (sometimes on bearings in huge machines), I do not recommend it for DIY, it took me several years to learn it at a basic level, and here you need a master level 😉
Actually most spinde repairs are done with driving two axis simultaneously. Real cnc machines are accurate and repeatable enough to manage the operation. Not the diy hobby machines but industrial ones, like Mori, Emco, Mazak, Okuma and many others. Making parts within couple of thousands of millimeters days on end, grinding a fresh taper is easy.
The first time around it did a fantastic job with interpolation, so I just stuck with it. I was tossing up a bunch of approaches before I jumped in, and your method definitely crossed my mind! I have a few thk linear motion units (combined bearing and ballscrew with a motor mount) kicking around, which I think I'll make use of when (if) I get around to regrinding this spindle. I think if I ever go to that trouble though, I'll pick up some beefier bearings, and probably make up a new housing. And the headstock needs work. So don't hold your breath for pt 2 any time soon 😁 I'm pretty deep into the lathe you would've seen in the video, which involves building a new spindle, saddle, tailstock, + maybe adding some CNC lite™ features. It never ends (thank goodness) 📈📈📈 And thank you for the info! I've always got a lot to learn.
tbh you could probably throw some bar stock in your lathe, add a couple of skf bearings, and make a better block than you'd have trying to salvage this.
Dubious setups? Stressful long-sleeves in the machine shop? Unexpected Alexa??!! Damn, this channel keeps getting better! Edit: Of course you got IDAT in as well... The Aussie family expands!
I did a things chaos, this old tonys sneaky video text and editing style. I love how you've pulled inspiration from other channels and created something of your own. Im so glad i subscribed in the early days of your channel!
The vibrations is caused by slack in X Two places it can be, the ballscrew (if you got those cheap ones, the balls are not made from proper steel and hardened properly, the screw itself is rolled and will last enough for hobby) or the guide/rails/tracks. Very good video!! It really shows the issues we face when buying cheap parts (am toolmaker, but also play with my own DIY for fun)
37K subs and only on your third video! Phenomenal success and well deserved. I had your first vid saved for later to watch and didn't realize this was the same channel. Gotta go back and watch the other two.
@@NoEngineerHere Clearly you're on to a fantastic formula. I always tell people to show a lot in a single video and keep it simple. I need to follow my own advice. Have you ever worked on another channel?
@@NoEngineerHere Truly amazing! You definitely deserve the views. You have put in a ton of work here. I've been at this for years and I need to get on your level. Hopefully my next big series will be. ;)
I don't know how i missed your videos earlier. Fantastic job. First of all your cnc is beautiful. Secondly you videos are really well made. Finally third is the content which is exactly the style I like. So i couldn't resist and had to subscribe. Hope to see you shine here :)
These are great videos, so please keep them coming. Not sure if others mentioned this but, as for that taper, the nice thing about them is that you don't really need the entire taper to make contact. I have seen Morse taper tools spin, causing galling inside that a taper ream couldn't fix, so most folks will just run a boring bar up in there and remove a clean and consistent groove where the galling was. As long as you still have concentricity and an adequate amount of contact, you will be just fine. Thanks for the great content!!!
I did a near identical process to my cheap bt30 spindle cartridge. I rigged up a high speed grinder vertically and had the spindle move up and down at the taper angle. I also had to manually grind down high spots to ease the process. It's probably more common than we think.
I always love finding people who will go into projects like me "this is stupid, this is wasting money and a ton of time but i kinda want to see if i can figure out how to make this turd shine"
I have to complement your voice-overs. Though you are - idk what the word is, unprofessional, nervous sounding? - you are confidently so. During my own short burst of youtube inspiration, I didn't even have the balls to finish editing when I sounded so shit. This is a testament to your inability to feel public humiliation: the most important skill for an aspiring content creator.
The production of this video was perfect. The way you speak into the camera with your mannerisms, and the background music choice is dialed! Outtakes too!
I like your moxy, kid. You don’t give up. You don’t the heaviest things weigh you down. Makes for a great artificer. I have a traditional home machine shop, which I call my $150.00 machine shop because I have six lathe I’ve accumulated over the years, 5 of which I paid $150, each, at the time and the last one I paid $350 for because it’s what’s called a 3 in one lathe milling machine. Though each had its set of problems, for the price I paid for them, all. It paid out in the end as precision machines after little work done.I now have a precision home workshop. If I could do it in a similar way you’re doing it, I know you could do it in a similar way I did. Keep up the good work, makes for a fine channel with great content.
Good lord, there's hitting the ground running, then there's this channel. Did not expect the IDAT crossover lmao Awesome content mate, can't wait to see more!
Just an idea, have you seen how mechanic's use a paste for grinding valves to get a clean fit "Valve Grinding Paste 100g" might be easier than doing the tapper by hand.
This guy is not making videos. He's taking us into great journeys, with highs and lows. He's distilling what make the essence of a maker. Pain, and sometime, Joy, at last.
bro never worry about upload times I'm sure everyone would agree we'd rather have quality uploads that are fun and engaging for you and others than just trying to get a video out there
Buy a metal throat tube for your Kingroon 3D printer... The hotend has a design issue where it has a PTFE tube in the tip of the throat tube that melts way below the point that PTFE should. It also has a cavity at the top that filament likes to use as storage space and that causes jams. I was very near buying a whole new toolhead for my KP3s before I found out that the throat tube was the issue
I have one of those 7" mini lathes, and with upgraded bearings the headstock is remarkably good for what you pay for them. It's MT3 with a flange, but that is easy enough to get rid of.
Great video. Envious of your machine for sure. As for the arc pauses, try setting G64 at the beginning of your G code. It’s constant velocity mode and will smooth out arc movements, should be a way to set tolerances on the smoothing as well
As someone who is just now going to a trade college for machining, I love that I can understand most of what you're talking about! Love the content and I can't wait to see more!
Oof I had the exact same ringing/resonance when cutting in the Y-direction on my vmc build just like you had cutting that arc. Ended up discovering that I had a few thou backlash in my X-axis. The BK ball screw block I had used deep groove bearings without preload and allowed quite a bit of axial play - swapped these out with angular contact + shim washer and has been cutting like butter since.
Yeah I think it's a combination of a bunch of things. That endmill was well used as well. Have since been playing around with some brand new roughing endmills and it's playing a lot nicer!
That’s awesome ! I have a cheap Chinese tool & cutter grinder that I bought used , and I spent probably 60 hours in hand-scraping the table flat, all the ways straight, rail beds flat, and adding an system . After all that effort, it’s straight, but still a terrible grinder . But hey, it’s the only thing small enough to fit in my shop.
You, not an engineer: "I'll manually grind out the spindle and sacrifice a bit of contact with the tool holder in order to reduce the spinout" Me, a (network) engineer: "Ah, yes. One of the crossbeams got out of skew on the treadle, impeding the appropriate encabulation matrix. I understand machine things." In other words , I have only the vaguest knowledge of what you're doing and these videos have still been fun to watch and easy to follow. A+ good stuff!
@@NoEngineerHere Sorry for the long wait. I didn't get a notification when you left the comment. I will be sending you an email with all of the information I was able to find. Far too much to type out here. Love the videos, keep up the good work.
I once bought a drill chuck with a MT4 taper on the back in the far east, for use on my manual mill. Only useful to stir coffee with the 0.3mm runout...
New subscriber! You look like my nephew and you you have the same crazy sense of humor. The you the most important quality of a good machinist, TH-camr, bonsai artist (whatever) and that's persistence. Keep up the good work, thanks and Happy New Year.
Excellent, good scarscam with a lot of noble tries, and still keep your sanity, your CNC will never look the same again. Well, for today anyways! Awesome channel, keep it up!
I admit, I’ve watched this video twice now and still laugh at the deadpan humour. Given the soundtrack and narrative I could have been watching a film noir detective story (Maltese Falcon) instead of an engineering video. Beautifully put together and perfectly cut.
Love your videos. Keep it up. You know, messing things up and repairing them and repairing them and messing them up but finally getting it in the end. Cheers.
you could turn most of the middle from the taper, as clearance of 1/4 mm, so there is less to get correct, and more likely a good seat. Should also lap after grinding.
This is sort-of how I imagine my forays into owning a workshop will be, if I ever get to fulfilling my age-long dream of actually getting started at one...
Giving a comment as well as you deserve to be seen by the TH-cam random crap and getting more subs. Great content and that mill was one hell of a good make.
If possible, measure the distance where that taper lock pulley needs to sit relative to the motor then pull the motor and install the pulley on a bench. Its super easy to tighten those unevenly and cause wobble. I basically have to tighten them with an indicator on the pulley while walking each setscrew in a little at a time.
Love the vids, keep them coming. I wonder if the high spots in the spindle taper were spots that were work hardened and your grinder deflected around them? Grinding them down with the rotary tool would have been the only real way to get rid of them.
Try warping a very fine piece of sand paper around the full length of a good Collet and then use the lathe for alignment and rotate it by hand slowly .. that might give you a better uniform result. just an idea.
That pneumatic chuck head is pretty sweet 😎 And finding the manual button after making your own button assembly from scratch 😳 ...that is how it always works out 🙄😭 Hey thanks again for building this so I don't have to, much appreciated ❤✌️
Returning something to chi-neh will cost one hundred times more than the original cost plus the free shipping; better to go for the flower pot modification.
Probably will never read this. But if your in Sydney I'm happy to help with the lathe refurb. Got the gear and some idea. 😂 keen for more videos love the production

Loving the vids. Don't let the pressure mill away at your soul ;)
7:20 I was entirely unaware that Chairman Mao was conversate about VFD programming...
9:48 the is an app for that lol - also, cheers to boy boy!
in the end you were doing your friend a favour in learning his chinese as translating would be good practice
I'm not an engineer either! and, I watched all your videos. Awesome job bro! 🤟
That pneumatic chuck head is pretty sweet 😎 And finding the manual button after making your own button assembly from scratch 😳 ...that is how it always works out 🙄😭 Hey thanks again for building this so I don't have to, much appreciated ❤✌️
Very interesting!
Love seeing CNC stuff!!
Keep em coming!!!!
Watching someone else slog through something solely due to stubbornness makes me feel like it's ok that I do that too, so I subscribed.
I haven't already subscribed, I would have as soon as you mentioned that you're the one that put together the giant beyblade of death.
The whole way I was thinking "this could have just been returned, this could have just been returned..."
Returning something to chi-neh will cost one hundred times more than the original cost plus the free shipping; better to go for the flower pot modification.
A tier content, pretty damn funny. Nice work on.. "fixing" that lathe, I'm sure it'll stay functional long enough for you to buy a new one tomorrow!
Some turds can be polished 😉
Looking forward to that IDAT collab.
fancy seeing u here
I wanted this as the title so badly
