We really like the press spacers, could use those a lot also you did great mounting that tube to the channel iron for the press, we are tired of losing these specialized press parts around here, thank you for that idea Randy. My name is Lance, so yes I am favoring your Lance Lathe, LOL. Nice crank, good work. Two of your California Desert dweller viewers say thank you Randy.
Denatured alcohol is mainly Ethanol. That illustrates one of the issues of using high Ethanol content fuel in engines that weren't designed for it. Oh, and the rest of the video was great, too!
Love the handwheel retrofit. The idea of the 3D printing oil cups is neat. I have modified paint cups with stems to do the same. Your spot on the drill sharpener, my SRD is tricky to get correct. So there’s a learning curve there
How about a recess on the bottom of the cup where you can glue in a weight or magnet. WOW....nice drill sharpener. Lucky guy Randy. Nice tips too. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Randy. I have a sharpener like yours I have never used, mostly because of a lack of room in my shop. I think you should do a video on it when you get it figured out. Might get me inspired.
Cool idea for the oil pots, they look nice. I hadn't heard of a threaded taper pin on machinery handles, that's a cool idea. As a mechanic I've seen many tapers with threads on the end (ball joints, tie rod ends, etc) but none with the thread used to disengage the taper as well as secure it. Very cool idea.
This was like a lightning round! I had no idea that an enclosure for a 3d printer would help that much. When I get mine back on-line, I'll have to get a nice moving box to put it in.
I see a new marketing bit - buy two scribes and 5 drill bits sharpened - free! Hahahah That removable taper pin was serious clever. Too bad Bubba done drilled off center. _Dan_
I have only seen a threaded taper pin once before and it seems like a great idea. Weird hand cranks on the lathe. You would think it would be designed better, great fix. That looks like my Atlas 10 inch. It must have fallen over before I owned it and someone fixed it just like you did. Take care Randy
I sure like the oiler you sent. It was featured in a video within minutes of its arrival. Thats t ips #503 , but will not be published for a month. Your printer doghouse is just like mine--only I have no skylight. lol Mine made all my problems go away. Have a great trip.
Nice little grinder. The G&L has threaded taper pins but they are external threaded for nuts that you can use to pull the tapered pin since there is no access to the other side.
Very cool Randy! You can definitely print me a couple two or four of those oil cans!!! Looks like i need to start making more videos so i can receive some AWESOME gifts like you and a few others!!!🤣 Great fix on the compound handle too.. Razor!
Cool use of a cardboard box Randy! Nifty oil cups! Like that compound dial - can see why the original was such a pain. Drill sharpener seems to have potential... almost any devices seem to present some problems with getting angles just right. Bet you'll get it sorted.
About the Darex grinder, here I have some of those holders, like the one on the left, the one on the right and another one, don't have the set-up block like the one on top of the grinder, and, not having the grinder... Like you say the instructions are quite imprecise about the use... I'll get in touch later when I get some free time and see with you what coulb be done since I'd like to do something with my own parts if not too much trouble.
I really like your removable, threaded taper pin. I don't think I have ever seen that anywhere. Have you, or is it a Randy original idea? Also, you have to wonder if they free hand drilled the original taper pin hole.
Randy I have some Darex parts and manuals at the shop. The grinder itself is not here. I will see what I have tomorrow and contact you. High end 3D printers have temperature controlled enclosures.
Shrinkage from cold air is never good, great low cost enclosure. I only print ABS and the enclosure keeps the smell down too. If you print the oil cups in ABS then acetone dip them it will seal up any layer separation.....i might print one and try just that this week.
My wife is a translator. She used to work with Korean companies, translating their instruction manuals into English. I was always dragged into the deal to help with the engineering/technical side. Some things just don't translate directly and some translators just give up trying and they throw together a document and send it out.
Interesting, I don’t have that problem with my prints on my Prusa Mk3. What filament are you using for your boxes, PLA? The other thing you do is use tape on your bed. I found if I just clean the bed sheet with 91% Isopropyl between before any print and my prints stick without tape or adhesive. Maybe I’m just lucky?

Randy always learn something new watching your videos.
Nice Ketchup Randy. You're moving right along with new products from your 3D printer. Pretty nice! Have a safe trip back to Nebraska!!
Lots of neat projects keeping you busy. Hope the winter prep is coming along well, sir. - Tom Z
Taper pin screw! Great idea...thanks.
Randy, You da man !! You could easily be my friend. Thanks so much for all you do to entertain, and educate me! Cliff
Thank you Clifford. I am trying.

great tip for the gasket maker.
Happy New Year.

Thanks.
Love the oil cup. Id like to have a tray to fit the T slots

As George said on Seinfeld....."Shrinkage!"
I think the base of that old Permatex gasket goop is shellac, so that's why the denatured works on it.
Yes I think you are correct. Shellac is a great gasket material on its own used for metal to metal tight fits.

I have used taper pins with a thread and nut on the small end, but never like this. It sure works good for this use.
Glad to see you back in the shop! That drill sharpener is a real challenge. Glad you didn't have to buy one.
I sure like the oiler you sent. It was featured in a video within minutes of its arrival. Thats t ips #503 , but will not be published for a month. Your printer doghouse is just like mine--only I have no skylight. lol Mine made all my problems go away. Have a great trip.
That's probably why some of the 3D printers are enclosed. Never knew that made a difference.
Big diff. Ken.
Nice little grinder. The G&L has threaded taper pins but they are external threaded for nuts that you can use to pull the tapered pin since there is no access to the other side.
Hi Randy,
Already using the oil cup you sent me. It will be in one of our upcoming TH-cam Videos.
Thanks,
Steve
Great. Enjoy.
I agree with you randy about spending all summer preparing for winter
Glad you were able to create a home for the press drifts. And I might just "borrow" your compound handle idea. :-)
Finally had time to make a mount. Thank you Lee they are great.
Very nice drill sharpener. I am sure you will get it sorted out. Cheers, Gary
Thanks Gary.
Love the dial you made Randy. Really nice.👍👍👍
All that time playing with cardboard boxes as a kid finally paid off!
Same on my myford super 7 I made a little knurled thumb handle. Great video
Very cool Randy!
You can definitely print me a couple two or four of those oil cans!!!
Looks like i need to start making more videos so i can receive some AWESOME gifts like you and a few others!!!🤣
Great fix on the compound handle too..
Razor!
You never know.
Right on that will help a lot of person out. I would imagine if you built a good one you would have good Results.
Cool use of a cardboard box Randy! Nifty oil cups!
Like that compound dial - can see why the original was such a pain.
Drill sharpener seems to have potential... almost any devices seem to present some problems with getting angles just right. Bet you'll get it sorted.
Thanks for the nice oil pot design Randy. Printing one now. Slic3r took a long time. Only an hour into the 8 hour plus print.
enjoyed....nice items

Never seen before. Sure works great.
@@RRINTHESHOP you may have just invented a new fastener
Great idea, Randy! It WILL be copied...
Randy I have some Darex parts and manuals at the shop. The grinder itself is not here. I will see what I have tomorrow and contact you. High end 3D printers have temperature controlled enclosures.
Thanks Bill. Any info will help. Yep the box works great.
Shrinkage from cold air is never good, great low cost enclosure. I only print ABS and the enclosure keeps the smell down too. If you print the oil cups in ABS then acetone dip them it will seal up any layer separation.....i might print one and try just that this week.
Let me know how it works. I was going to try that also.
I have a similar problem with my lathe, this may just motivate me enough to fix it LOL
For the oil cup, could you pause the print to drop in a magnet?
It depends on your printer. On my printer I can.
I had one of those drill sharpeners never could make it work. Ended up as junk.
I get the same problem, but how can i drag one of those in the shower with me ?

They are made in Ashland, Oregon though.

There seems to be no logic as to what works for each person regarding how to treat the bed.
Were you can buy 3D nonspill oil containers
