Excellent work Chris, using banding is a good idea, normally ive seen metal straps between the segments, Ive built a de-coiler once, a lot smaller though. Extension tool holder's were definitely needed that day, love the vibration damper "Thing" 😮. Drawing looked good, plenty of notes go aide in machining and build. Thanks for sharing
Man those tool holder extension blocks are something else! Especially with the added damper. I would have thought you needed a bigger lathe for sure. Very cool to see. Also 4x40 always look so great when you are done.
Great work Chris as always I never got to work on anything so big, we did small end hydraulic stuff. I have to tell you that I got so frustrated through the video….. the drawings kept popping up and I just wanted to spend time looking at them I was they to expand them several times so I could get a better look 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Keep it coming Chris love your videos and the work you do!!!

Nice work! Love that girthy toolholder extension and yeah ... The shim-plate in the live center, been there done that lol... Can be sketchy af, especially with heavy parts like that but more if you have ones that are unbalanced or take a too heavy of a cut. You are very aware what could happen and gonna have an extra eye on it so all gucci there. Peace! And good job!

Nice job Chris, and again it was'' Kelly Bar City '' 😎😎😎...... as for those who didn't like your method of getting over runout, perhaps they'd like to post their solutions??
Although designed differently, this looks like what we would call a pay-off reel mandrel where I work. One comes into each side of coil to support while being run through a process, temper mill for example. Just curious if that is the case here and you had a pair of these to do (?). Great work, always interesting to see the machining of the types of components that I install as a millwright. 👍🏻
@@ChrisMaj Just setting the zero on all those different tools and getting everything to stay true must have been difficult. With those extension you couldnt use the same point for part zero. Your skill is impressive. Charles
Did you build the holder extension yourself or were they purchased parts? In any case, your video is very interesting and exciting. How many cnmg plates did you use on the segments? nice greetings from Germany
O matko, dawno nie był czegoś tak spektakularnego. Co to, jakieś sprzęgło odśrodkowe od piły? Ile mogło ważyć to "berło"? Na Porębie ciężko te promienie pewnie byłoby zrobić?
To coś tam ma wspólnego z rozwijaniem, czy zwijaniem blachy. Dokładnie, promień na promieniu, ale jak powiesz że trochę za duże na twoją maszynę, to powiedzą że może jakoś zrobisz, bo ja qrwa jestem magikiem.🤣
@@ChrisMajWhen I was a teenager I had a 98 Honda Accord, and being a teenager I wanted more faster. I found a brick sized iron (possibly) weight bolted to the front subframe of the car at some weird angle and took it off because less weight is better right. It took me too long of a time to figure out why it was there at all. 😂
Dude, i cant believe the tolerances you have to work with. I saw .001-.002??? Thats nuts! I wouldve thought with something ao big you should have more wiggle room.
The space between me and the machine behind me is a bit tight, and they have to squeeze in with the forklift. Every time I would replace the pallet, he would crash into them,so I was like "fuck it"
You work on some of the weirdest $hit. I thought I worked with unusual machines during my career, but I don’t think I have seen anything remotely like what you seem to come across on a weekly basis.
I adore the simplicity of the concept and the elegance of the manufacture of these.

Love that lathe! Thank goodness for shim stock. :-) Thanks for another fascinating video, Chris. Hope your Sunday is peaceful.
Nice turning job an interesting part Chris. Herring bone gears are a work of art!
Yes, they are! Too bad I have never seen how they make them, only youtube videos.
Great video. The vibration damper is very smart. At least you don't have to worry about long stringy chips.

Nice job Chris, that expanding mechanism looks like some tricky matching work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 👍

Keep it coming Chris love your videos and the work you do!!!
I'll try to include more drawings in the video. It's just that some customers are more strict about it than others.
Rare wisdom nowadays! Congrats.
When the extensions come out, that is when you can tell a rigid machine from the rest haha.
great work Chris!
Yeah, can't complain about the riggity of this lathe.
Man, Chris, this was excellent. Creativity at its best. I wouldnt have the guts to try such a setup. Hats off. 👍👍👍👀👀👀

I wish!😅
@@ChrisMaj Forward this comment to da boss... ;-)
Beating the shit out of the inserts with that interrupted cut. Well done Chris!
Yeah, the machine didn't like it either 😅
Great set up & result . I bet the dimensioning on the drawing would have had to had a second glance with the open & closed dimensions ! Cheers 👍

Yeah, you have to watch that shim cause it tends to move around sometimes.

Sometimes, that shim can make things even worse if you don't keep an eye on it. It tends to move around on you.
Great work, great video.
Another great job Chris.👍
Thanks again!

Yeah, it's a slitting line-payoff reel.
That was very impressive you do some incredible work 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! A lot of side loading in the carriage!!! Impressive!
I am pretty impressed with the insert, considering the overhang and the interrupted cut...Charles
They worked surprisingly well.
@@ChrisMaj Would you care to share what grade of insert? Charles

Your methods worked, you hit spec. The rest can cry all they want.
Yeah, it worked, but don't expect to hit some tight tolerances with that shim.
how does the saying go ? " it ain´t stupid if it work´s"
Nice work. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Nice work on a tricky job... excess tool stick-out and intermittent cuts not making it any easier. Well done Chris.
Thanks 👍
Thanks for sharing 👍 dang! How much does the center alone weigh?
No idea
Ur Idea is amazing to have small shim ❤ in centre
Detrás de estas imágenes hay mucha experiencia...💪👍
Just love that "anti vibration thingy".
Patent pending 😅
Very nice surface finish ❤
AWESOME, WELL DONE!
Glad you liked it!
did you crimp steel strapping off workpiece to a precision diameter--then slip on when turning?
I've put them on the machine to prevent any play
It looks like you used several different extension blocks? Charles
For each diameter, I had to use different extension.

Beautiful work
What is something like this used for? Good work as always.

All made in the house a long time ago. If you find the right insert for interrupted cuts, they last surprisingly long.

Now that's a micrometer, holy cow!
Now that's a machine shop
做的好，加工這類的成品最損刀具了，做的很完美
at least with this part, you don't have to worry about stringy chips... that interrupted cut takes care of it all for you.
great!
This shop looks familiar to me, is this in Tomball?

Stop it. My wife reads the comments. 😅

How do you get your metal bands so tight?
Manual tensioner.
At least you didn't have to worry much about long stringy chips!
Not on this job 😅
that tool holder extension looks like it's been sitting in the back for some time.
Yeah, it's for a special occasions only.
tak jest
Nice machine
Trabalho impecável. Principalmente o dispositivo antivibraçao 😂😂😂😂
Would be quite a bad crash, if that steel band had ripped apart ;-)
It wouldn't really fall apart. It just has a little play in it, and that keeps it tight.
Marvelous1
oh man those wooden pallets at the lathe are giving me the creeps.. One wrong step and you're out for a week..
The space between me and the machine behind me is a bit tight, and they have to squeeze in with the forklift. Every time I would replace the pallet, he would crash into them,so I was like "fuck it"
And now make a mistake, I don't even want to think what those losses would be
Let's not go there 😂
You work on some of the weirdest $hit. I thought I worked with unusual machines during my career, but I don’t think I have seen anything remotely like what you seem to come across on a weekly basis.
I think that's why I'm still here in this shop (27 years). All this different shit they throw at me, 😅
