- Time to repair the other broken Monarch lathe handle and get some shaper practice.
I slot the 316 SS broach bushing I used for the Keyways on the Do-All saw pullies.

Great job all around Steve! Enjoyed seeing the shaper slitting! 👍🏻
Thanks for watching Adam👍😎
I've always enjoyed running and watching the shaper.
I was thinking you could have different depths of keyway on the broach plug then you can just rotate to the next shallower keyway for your next pass.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both.
Thanks so much for showing the upkeep of the shaper. So many videos cut out the prep, setup and maint because it's "boring". It's so important to show everything that goes into getting that first chip flying.
I like to see that too. If it takes a long time, it can be shown at 2X speed, or edited into a montage.
That was a cool segment. The care and lubing of a BA shaper.
Now all that it needs is a nice thermal blanket to keep it warm & comfortable on these cold nights. (ツ)
Most days, you spend more time on maintenance and setup than actually cutting anything. Part of the deal.
Thanks for including metric numbers. Makes things a whole lot easier for those in metric countries.
That was a slick trick putting the oil down the top of the tool holder so it feeds into the cut by gravity.
That’s one of the things that’s always sat back in my mind. Apply the oil to the surface of the part, the oil is on top of the chip and not necessarily providing lubrication for the cutting action. Cooling yes but cutting very little I would assume. Putting oil on the cutter makes more sense to me as it cools the cutter directly but help release the the chip from the cutter. Especially for aluminum I think you ending up wasting less oil as well. It would be interesting to compare the outcomes one method vs other.
As a retired shop foreman
here in Wales I like seeing your work. I try to pre empt what you are
about to do, sometimes I get it right other times I scratch my head
and wonder why you chose that method. In the end there's always
different ways of doing a job. Wishing you and your family a merry
Christmas and a happy new year.
Agreed and a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! As a scavenger, I have lots of little drops and bits such as your little cast iron bar. You did well. I would have faced the piece true on the ends (or close), drilled and reamed and pressed the workpiece on a mandrel. That would have assured the piece would have not come out of the chuck and been easier to take more aggressive cuts. Another reason for my affinity for this method is that I have smaller machines which do not have brute holding power. Either way the result is the same, just parroting another already well known method. Another thing that works for me is a good set of screw length twist drills, less deflection. Stay warm - from Alabama!

Also agreed, as a factory maintenance fitter and ex aerospace apprentice here in Lancashire I often find myself second guessing what method will be used to complete the job and sometimes I wonder why a particular approach was taken. I think a lot of it is down to what techniques and equipment were available when people in different places around the globe learned their trade. The US seems to have a virtually never ending supply of high quality and very robust machine tools from back in the day and people also have more room to build their home/small shops.

I love watching that shaper run - those big units are fascinating. It is interesting to see the comparison of the finish between the broach slot done by milling and by the metal shaper, the shaper slot does look more "finished."
Steve, coffee and a recliner. No better way to spend some time on a Saturday. Seasons best my friend.
2 extremes weather wise between you and me - you’re at 15, we had 115 yesterday (46C) here (Northern Victoria, in Australia) 😁. Great seeing you do the maintenance on the Shaper, think it made more than one of us feel a little guilty about the last time we did this to our machines... 😇
With people worldwide watching your content, wise of you giving both metric and imperial measurements.
If you silver solder it, you may want to put 2 alignment pins into the joint. just drill it from the top on both sides of the bore. It keeps it together better.
I agree with Dee. Before you said the words, "braze" or "solder", I was thinking pins.
I concur pins will aid in lateral stability of the soldered joints and maintain alignment during soldering.
Good to see the shaper getting the care it deserves :-) Good wishes to you, Elizabeth, the family and not forgetting Peanut the squirrel.
Merry Christmas, good people. Thank you.
Steve you are a pro and I seem to learn something from every video. I love my Hendy 12 inch shaper and got it for the same reasons you got yours.
I got my 14" Steptoe at a State of Louisiana auction for 200 dollars... Nobody seemed to want it.. The machine has full pressure lubrication, back gear drive and a large transmission for different speeds....I too realized in a short time how valuable a shaper can be.....I think most young machinists today think a shaper is only good for a boat anchor but such is surely NOT the case.. Mike in Louisiana
Yeah and your shaper can beat a Bridgeport at removing stock a friend of mine had to remove an inch and of stock I ran my mouth that I can remove it in under an hour off of the workpiece it didn't take me half an hour in the shaper I just think a lot of people are scared of a shaper
Fantastic editing and video production Steve, really top notch. You the man! Love the channel. Merry Christmas!
Really nice work on this, I've picked up a few good tips from the video. I really enjoyed the segment showing how you oil the machine.
Good one Steve! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos they're great!
Nice use of recycled hard drive magnets there! And thanks for all the great videos!
The old girl is all lubed up and ready to go! Steve is always doing a bunch of cool stuff in his shop, glory to Steve!
Hey Steve I name is Kim Bruce Zelik but I really enjoy watching your videos and you all have inspired me I got myself a mini leave and I may start a channel but I’m definitely a newbie just wanted to let you know that I’m watching and learning thank you for being there
I don’t know how Bruce got in my name
I have never used silver solder on cast iron. I have used it for stainless steel and that works great. I have also used it on a very large carbide deburring tool that someone had split in half. That worked well also.
Another example of your expertise Steve!
Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
yes, Happy Holiday's to Steve and family.
Great work Steve...
Merry Christmas to you and yours too!
Cheers!
I vote silver solder as well! Looking great so far, no one will know it was busted unless they watch these videos!
Great video, once again. I had a question that was not answered, even after rewinding and listening to "the plan". The first 13 minutes showed the making of a nice round piece that would work with the bar. Then it was sliced. I don't understand why mating up the sliced part would be better than "milling out" the original and brazing/soldering the entire new piece onto the old arm.
Steve, well done. I agree with Robin. I have done a number of cast iron repairs over the years, and silver solder is definitely one of my "go to" options depending upon what the part is. In this repair, it is perfect. Merry Christmas to you and your family (and Peanut too!).
Hi Steve, I remember well using the shaper to cut the shape of stamping die punches. Following the irregular lines while you are constantly moving the compound up and down, and the table from side to side. Tedious work, but gratifying to see the punch cut very close to the layout.
Wait, you were moving the table while the shaper was cutting?
@@xenonram- yes, movements were made as needed by dialing the handcrank over, not in automatic feed. Allowing for the bit to finish it's pass, then move over and adjust the tool down to the line. Now they are all cut on the wire E.D.M.! So sad to see tech take away the skills of the trade.
Thank you, enjoyed the repair and wishing you and family a Happy holidays.
Nicely produced video Steve. Good to see a variety of content from your shop. All the very best to you and your family for the festive season.

Pretty much how I would have done the first repair. Nice job. Love seeing the KISS theory being practiced. And by the way, you could have tig or stick with nickel to weld to the cast instead of brazing
Merry Christmas, Steve, and all your family. Try to stay warm! This is the time of the year I’m glad I live in AZ.
Thank you for the video. I like how you are repairing the handles; excellent fit up. Merry Christmas.
Steve , i have been enjoying your work about a year and a half. poppy's workshop says MERRY CHRISTMAS
Great video. Merry Christmas to you and yours (including Peanut). Seeing you in front of the bullet heater reminded me what I did for 40 years. Two years ago I spent $2 grand for a gas line and heater out to the garage/shop. The best money I ever spent. Don’t be like me and regret not putting in heat 40 years ago! Plus, breathing kerosene or diesel fumes is not healthy!
Merry Christmas to you to Steve .. and Elizabeth and the family .. .. Best ,, Harry!!
Steve, Great video and content enjoyed watching & thanks for sharing.!.!.!.
I love that shaper. Beautiful slot!! When it comes to the Monarch part, you are a true engineer. Rob is a master, like you said. Sometimes another set of eyes can gives us a good idea that will save time, and energy. Waiting impatiently to see the completed part. LOL See you next time, Good Lord willing.
Love seeing the shaper action. Repair for casting is working out perfect. Happy holidays to you and your family.
Merry Christmas to you and the family. Enjoying the videos.
I call you the original Shaper guy You are the first one I saw using a shaper on youtube. wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
Merry Christmas to you and your family! Have a great time.
Nice lathe handle repair and good suggestion to silver solder it...
Awesome video. Impressed by how you slotted that 316 stainless on your shaper . Looked like it was aluminium or a hot knife through butter 🤙
great video/repair along with misc....enjoyed...Merry Christmas
How does this man’s channel only have 30k subs?
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the Steve Summers Family Regards from Holland
Very nice work, Steve!
You do good work. Hat’s off to you for freezing in your shop to record the video...
Merry Christmas , Summers family !
Merry Christmas Steve! Watching this I was thinking that Lexington didn't get hit with the cold like us in Boyd County, then you showed the heater and temperature. Kudos for braving the temperatures to give us some information and entertainment. They say that an artist works when they are inspired but a craftsman works no matter what. You Sir are a craftsman!
LoL, Thanks Craig 👍. Its been real cold around here lately. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you and yours Steve from North Yorkshire UK. Always enjoy your videos
Great work Steve. May I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the video Steve.
A job well done.
Yuletide greetings from UK.

Wow - colder there than it is here in Chicago!
Merry Christmas to you and your family Steve.
Thanks for sharing your craft
Cheers
Merry Christmas Steve and Elizabeth, family have an enjoyable time and be safe from New Zealand 👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing Steve. A very merry Christmas to you and your family. regards from the UK
Merry Christmas Steve & Noel
Thanks Steve for sharing your common sense, basic solutions. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I like the fact that you use manual machines. Have enjoyed your projects. Merry Christmas and wishing you a prosperous New Year!
You have some nice Abom sized and colored chips there!
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family!
Merry Christmas to you Steve, and your family (and the squirrel). Have a great one mate.
You pull that shaper by hand !?!? Wow!
Steve, Merry Christmas to you and your family and a happy and prosperous new year.
Merry Christmas Steve and family!
I could swear that thats the same balancer I have for rc plane props. That down the face of the tool automatic oiler ..... that’s one of those, why have I never seen that before moments.
It probably is. That's what it was designed for.👍
roscocsa I got in the habit of oiling down the face sometime ago. I can’t remember if I saw it done or just started doing it. It sure works well sometimes.
Steve Summers Slightly different process for the props. Instead of shaving the heavy, you build up the lights with a strip of scotch tape at a time. Cool beans.
Great work. Merry Christmas. Thank you
Holy cow, it’s been in the low fifties in Montana this week. No wonder the blast furnace heater.
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and your family, Steve!
Very enjoyable video Steve. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Merry Xmas Steve & Family thanks for 2019 video content
Morning Steve great content, Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Years to you and your family, now that lovely wife of yours not going to be to happy cause you oiled up the shaper as I recall she does a great job.
Merry Christmas to you and family
Hi Steve, that was really nicely done!! I too about halfway through the video also thought Silver Solder would be the way to go. Pretty much for the same reasons you stated. Merry Christmas to you & Family ...even that squirrel....!
Enjoyed your content and easy going personality. Merry Christmas to you and Yours! Arch
Merry Christmas Steve& family

Merry Christmas Steve and thanks for all the videos in 2019
Get an oil filled portable radiator and have it plugged in to a socket youll thank me they are awesome and kick the most heat out continuously
Great work Steve. Merry Christmas
@14:14 be careful with that portable propane heater in the shop... They produce a lot of humidity, enough to make your days the next few weeks be mostly about derusting tools (guess how i know).
Other then that: Greetings from Norway and keep up the good work!
The data below is picked up from a technical website about the subject. Propane, methane and butane is pretty much the same numbers so look out for the huge amounts of water vapour you make by heating your shop like that.
"....complete combustion of 1 kg of methane releases 2 · 18.015/16.043 = 2.25 kg of water vapour."
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Steve.
Merry Christmas and I look forward to your next video and ps it’s 2 deg c in my workshop here in the UK.
Nice job! 👍
Hi Steve,
Great video. Always enjoy seeing the shaper in action. Saw another use for the Dubro prop balancer. :-)
Happy Holidays to you, Noel and the family.
Hola meu amigo Steve,excelente trabalho de restauração,muito bom ver seu trabalho!Feliz Natal a todos aí!
