      ...a KEISTER is a suitcase that is used by street peddlers.
      These peddlers were greatly resented by the established merchants, because these street peddlers didn't pay rent, or taxes, or utilities like the established merchants had to do- and that's where the expression: "getting thrown out on [their] keister" originated...

    Morning Josh,
    Looks good !!! Gotta say my pucker factor was working overtime when you did the low speed interrupted big cuts...YI YI YI......I could feel those vibrations even over here. Those Sandvik inserts are impressive, I like em too but have recently switched to try some Palbit inserts, just as good so far and a tad less expensive. Hope you're not getting as much rain as we are here, albeit the woods sure can use it.
    All the best,

    Been using Anchor Lube for a few years now, and very happy with it. Works really well on difficult metals like stainless and titanium. As others have mentioned, you just have to be mindful to keep containers closed when not in use, or it will dry out.

    • @anthonycash4609
      @anthonycash4609 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jeff do you have any problem with the Anchor Lube building rust on the machine and parts. Due to it being water based . I had though of getting some but thats been the hold up on not getting it. I have found that chainsaw bar oil works great due to it being for high speed and heat resistance.

    • @907jl
      @907jl ปีที่แล้ว

      @@anthonycash4609 I've not had any issues with rust. It will make a light stain if you leave it there for prolonged periods of time. With it being as thick of a consistency, it can't really migrate under things like your vise, which is a plus to me. No smoke or smell either.

  • @jsteifel
    @jsteifel ปีที่แล้ว

    I like anchor lube, I also like KoolMist and tapmagic. The anchor is my go to for SS. It seems to prevent work hardening , or puts it off , you still have to push hard on the tooling to avoid rubbing.

    The anchorlube works great and since it's water based you can thin it if you want which I've done and works well you just have to keep it in an air tight container or the water will evaporate especially here in az when summer is routinely over 110 lol cool weather here is probably what y'all consider hot as hell 😵

  • @kevinsellsit5584
    @kevinsellsit5584 ปีที่แล้ว

    After intermittent cuts ... if you can, without disrupting your finish dimensions, it is always a good idea to re-tighten the chuck when you get to round size. The impact loading forces tend to set the teeth deeper into the workpiece than you can with the chuck key and if you then need to do work without the tail stock, you may find that the workpiece is loose. I'm betting he did this and just didn't have it in the final video edit.

    Now I don’t know all the parameters, but wouldn’t a shield of some sort be beneficial to keep the chips from bouncing onto the feed mechanism below the cutter? I know that in some cases it may interfere….but it seems like a piece of rubber or aluminum to form a slideway would protect the swirling bits being assaulted by swarf. Thoughts?

We've got a couple of their lathes in the model shop where I work. Great machines. BTW, how are the new cameras working out for you? You ditch the GoPro all together?

      Last time I talked to Monarch, they were buying back the old 10EE and doing full rebuilds. Last I heard, $120,000 each. They are a good machine, but I'd never pay that for such a small machine.
      I am giving all of the gopros to a friend who is starting his channel. He does dirt track racing. I'm one of his sponsors. The gopros should work good for that. The DJI has been by far superior, and I'm considering their newest camera.

      No problem with that here. I have to have heat.

      Loving the DJI camera. Light years better than the GoPro. Actually considering buying another.

    What do you find is "normal" for backlash in the table of a 'Bridgeport' ?

      I've seen as much as 0.135. It's still usable.

    I’m not a machinist but I am puzzled about 1 thing, why do you clean up, face, from the outside in especially on square material, why not touch in the centre and then cut to the outside.

    • @TopperMachineLLC
      @TopperMachineLLC  ปีที่แล้ว

      Facing from the center in is for amateurs. Outside it allows for bigger cuts and the chip goes away from the operator.

    That HAS to be murder on the cutting surface. I am astounded that the inserts take this pounding. I thought perhaps bandsawing the corners might help with time and the physical violence, but I guess that could lead to a dynamic imbalance.

    You know Josh, sometimes I really hate watching your videos because they just point out to me how long I've been putting off maintenance on some of my machines. Every time you go to a random machine in your shop I just think, "dang, that thing sounds smooth". I really don't appreciate you intentionally and maliciously pointing out my irresponsible laziness, good day sir.

      Lol. Thanks. Although, I have been putting off a major teardown of the boring mill. It desperately needs the feed box gone through. I just am afraid to start on it and be down for a while.

    You never say what insert you’re using. That would be helpful for us hobbyists. Nice job

      No it doesn't. The other one never did and it wasn't attached.
