In your last video a lot of people commented that the "grease nipples" were in fact oiler points. Hopefully you have now flushed the grease out by pumping oil through them all. If you haven't it really would be a good thing if you did it sooner rather than later. That grease will set and you will not get it out other than taking the whole thing apart!
I am a bit late here received the Ranalah stickers in the stamped Ranalah envelope ,this is like a instant collectable ,history in the making . Great thought on your half .I have been with you from the start of your channel brilliant work.
You’re one of my favorite presenters - I enjoy your work. I’ve built my own (from scratch) CNC Plasma cutting table and other assorted items… always learning. One thing I wanted to mention are your long sleeves and gloves around the lathe. Kind of scary. I presume it’s quite cold in the shop.
You were using a finishing insert in the lathe. get a WNMG insert with a large nose radius and a negative rake holder. You get at least 6 sides could use 12 or more but you can take big cuts.
Like so many others watching this we have been with you from before you announced that you had bought the rights to Ranalah. We've watched every week to see how you progress and it's been an epic story - so much work and time and money and collaborations wit other skilled people that you have always respected and promoted. It's been a joy.
Great to see engineer old school marching ways at work pre CNC. You could use the drill for cutting the keyway in the casting. By simply making a boring bar and a peace of tool steel groad to the size of the keyway you require. And use the drill head feed motor to drive the boring bar up and down. With a screw behind the tool steel as stop and adjustment aid to get the depth required. I used this method lots of times for keyways and oil groves. Before my employer managed to get a vertical keyway cutting marchine Hope this helps
Dominique you are a Gem. Really great to follow your adventures, your reasoning, your learning. It's what it's all about. As far as I can see you are really approaching this head-on and I feel that you are going to more than succeed. Picking up on This level of machining is pretty awesome to me, cannot be too many doing this in their sheds? and I take my hat off to you.
Hi Dom, received my sticker pack on Friday. I’m not sure I should have been quite so excited about stickers but there you go. Thank you. Can’t wait for the mini Ranalah’s to go on sale. Perfect for my little workshop..
Great to see a bit of backwards turning on the lathe, love the frame rates making stuff go backwards.😅 Ranalah is looking spot on. Can't wait to see it coming together next week.
Well done Dom - this takes me back to my apprentice days in fact I might just start getting my metal working head back on after 50 years best of luck and keep up the great work!
A very interesting video Dom. Some years ago I built a full scale steam engine (for a car project) from iron castings. A fascinating thing to do, getting everything just right is the real challenge, you are doing a great job there.
Yup, stickers arrived for me! The printing on the envelope is great too. Got my eye open for a second hand rollcab and they’ll go on there when I find one.
It's great to see you using machine tools, proper engineering, it's inspiring. I hope that it will influence and encourage others to do the same, particularly younger people. I know this is your aim and it's laudable. Through you, it can seen that engineering and making things is cool. We need people to make things; selling bloody soffee and detailing (cleaning) cars is not creative, just a load of BS. I look forward to the next episode.
Bearing retainer is a good idea. Just ensure your clearance is what the retainer manufacturer specifies. I set some 6mm x 14mm pins in aluminium plate with Locktite 609 and left hem to fully cure. It took over 2000kg to press the pins out. If you ever need to remove the part ,it will take less heat than the babbitt would need.
Hi Dom Not surprised that the Ranalah stickers sold out. I have mine and they are terrific, real art and highly recommended. PS Packaging paper is a great touch.
Fantastic Dom, you are a man of very many skills. I do wonder how many young people are coming out of schools and colleges with these engineering skills or entering apprenticeships where they are learning the trade on the job. The creativity is inspiring and watching you create jigs and parts from raw steel bars is absolute Sunday therapy.
Hi Dom, great work as usual, may it continue. That 10mm drill bit looked different with the spiral pointy bit. What is it please? Save the cast iron slugs from the annular drilling, you never know when you might need a small piece of CI for another job.
I just received my Ranalah stickers and they look great. Thank you. I did want to ask about at one time you showed a tool post or stand like for a pedestal grinder.there must not have been a big demand for something like that? Thanks again. I find myself looking for Sunday video.👍😀
Great video showing that with preparation and planning things can work! Well done Dom!. Don’t sweat on the 356 it’s great to see projects on the move at the same time. Bend things to your will with a Ranalah!
Love this channel, this and prop designer Adam Savages Tested channel. They both inspire me to get down to my own shed and tinker in my own small way, it works wonders on my mental health. Thanks for the videos.
Dom. Why aren't you using slurry or an oil-based coolant on your milling and drilling operations? You'll ruin the cutting edges. Great videos though, showing the value of recycling older machinery.
Coolant/lube isn't strictly required for cast iron. Cast iron tends towards "self lubricating" due to it's composition. It also tends to create a slurry rather than flushing the cuttings out. Edit: on other steel parts, a lot of TH-camrs dont use coolant or lube because it makes filming a nightmare
@@DominicChineasThat spray lube will burn up your "bits"..may I suggest "Millers"?? ..I also want to encourage you to spend a day and install Dro's on your Lathe and Mill..it will save you a month a year on your operatuons..Great video as always!!..excited to see if the "mini" wheely machine will work..👍👍👍😊🗽🇺🇸
Another great video. Good to see the progression. I am wondering why you rely on centerpunch marks when you have a center drill. Would this not be a much more reliable reference for the cutters to follow?
very nice...great to see the mini ranalah coming along...all this precision fabricating is going to stand in good stead for the next bits you make. I am guessing you are looking at using epoxy for the fittings, hope goes well Thanks for sharing
Interesting episode, Dom, thank you. Hope that Geoff finds these small Ranolahs to do a good job. Technically, I believe, a transfer punch is not a centre punch. It’s an “accuracy tool” to give you a point position which can then ensure that your later centre punch mark is correctly placed. Hit a transfer punch too hard and you’ll ruin it.
@@DominicChineas yup, OK, I get it, but if someone bought a set on the strength of what you said, and then welted them with a big hammer they’d ruin good tools through lack of understanding. Keep up the good work.. Les
Dom use a laser level to check if the holes are in line correctly zero it to the base and use the vertical laser it will follow the bottom hole center straight up to the horizontal hole center if the laser is in the middle of both sets of holes it's center cheers from down under
Great progress Dom. I was surprised the mega drill and the mill did not need some sort of cutting oil as you removed material from the old piston and the casting. Are the cutters so hard, no cutting oil is used?
I did my apprenticeship in 1976 on a Colchester Student, using HHS bits, sharpened by yours truly. We always used cutting fluids. Do modern tipped tools, not require such fluids regardless of the material being machined?
So ive never seen a drill bit like that before! Kind of a hybrid step/ centre drill? I was waiting for it to stop rotating to get a better look. Good luck with the Minilah project. Looking forward to all the videos.✅
It's an odd tool' Its actually designed for cutting out holes in thin-ish material - it's called a Rotabroach. - it's not something you'd normally see being used in this sort of machine tool, more normally in a Magnetic drill, Bit it certainly does a good job and probably with less wander than a traditional drill bit.
Good progress. Suggestion going forward; ensuring your turned ‘jig’ is level you showed using a DTI and digital level meter; this is a very small area and a fraction of a thou’ would move the centre punch mark by multiple amounts (lever effect). Consider welding a strip that would then run vertical (weld and machine to 90°) such you can DTI over a longer length. Your’e doing great!
Hi Dom, great video Buddy. Just a quick question, why are you not using the small feed wheel on the radial arm drill. There's a lot less chance that the cutter will move or dig in. Even better try engaging the drills feed on a slow setting say .1 mm per tooth ( 4 thou in old money lols)
As a non-engineer I'm loving this series - thanks Dom et al....... Apologies for maybe sounding like the slow-kid in the fast group, but what determines when to use lube on the different tools - you always appear to use it on the lathe, but not always when drilling?
Love it Dom.....and love that stepped twist drill bit !...where did you get it ?....also a Ranalah T-shirt in Sage Green with a distressed white logo would be at the top of my shopping list...CHEERS
Great stickers. Now who can I buy more for?! (Thinks) I like the picture and the script stickers best. Bolting the ½ Ranalah down ... it looked like it was being prepped for surgery! Great job surgeon!
Dom, could you have made a plug to go in the third hole with a 10mm spigot to go in the steel jig to 'check the alignment once drilled. Also, could you ask people to submit photos of how they have used the stickers? It would be fun to see them.
How do you ensure that the jig you made is rotated to the correct position? If the hole for the punch is not square on, the hole would be in the wrong place. It's great to watch you at work every Sunday. Thak you!
Dont know if you own one, but a machinist's spirit level will help you a lot. Mind you it can also send you slightly batty trying to get perfect! Also, Would beefing up the lower support arm slightly limit the flex? Halfing the scale sometimes requires limiting the force applied to the work piece to the point where the wheel might not actually achieve the result on the sheet. Then the wheel gets cranked too hard and the arm can crack. Just check the supports engineering can handle the force required. Otherwise, I've spent a great Sunday afternoon watching the Ranalah playlist. Big ups from "The Bush" in South Africa. (PS. Those idiots in our so called government at the ICJ, DO NOT speak for South Africans)
@@DominicChineasDefinitely do it. Waiting on the arrival of my stickers. I think a pocket square would be great for the discerning gentleman around Goodwood, where one can’t wear a hoodie. 👍🏽
@@DominicChineas The Ameliorator logo would be really nice cast as a brass or cast iron name plaque....very much like the old name plaques for Lister engines etc used to be done. Would look very cool.
Got my stickers a couple of days ago and they are great quality. One is now stuck in my copy of your tools book. I also like the waxy paper they were enclosed in! 💚🐇🐴💚

Hi Dom. With you all the way 😊. All the best Brian 😃
Thanks Dom - Ranalah Stickers arrived last week
Great news thank you!
Love the Ranalah stickers. Great packaging. Many thanks.
Hi Dom, I’ve only seen you on The Repair Shop. So glad I’ve found you here. Cheers from Canada

Stickers arrived ,very pleased with them
Going on the tool box
I think i might stick the packaging on there too
Very impressive
Loving the videos Dom, I can see the halfling ranelaghs being a big success they are ideal for the hobbyist.
Recieved the stickers on Friday, Very well packed. Thanks Dom.
Enjoyed seeing you use the lathe and mill.
Brilliant news! Thank you!

Hi Dom Not surprised that the Ranalah stickers sold out. I have mine and they are terrific, real art and highly recommended. PS Packaging paper is a great touch.
You've provided a lot of insight into the reality of making things pre CNC. It had never really occurred to me how much is involved.

great to see it all coming together, again
Good to know more stickers are coming. I was bummed when I went on the next day and they were sold out!
Oh no sorry, I didn’t expect them to sell so quickly, I am working on more very soon!
Metaphorically I hope!
You say “Chaos”, I say organised and structured. If I were to do this, then that would be chaos! More please 🙏👍👏
Nice work, jigs are the go! Is there a recommended cutting speed for those drills? Once you set up for one you can do several.
You don't half try & do things the hard way, making this baby Ranalah; hope it all goes well, & remember to have fun doing it.
Haha I’m not sure there is an easier way?!
Loves me some precision machining video and restored vintage tools to boot!
Thanks, Dom! - the stickers look FANTASTIC! What a bargain! 👍

Hi Dom, great video Buddy. Just a quick question, why are you not using the small feed wheel on the radial arm drill. There's a lot less chance that the cutter will move or dig in. Even better try engaging the drills feed on a slow setting say .1 mm per tooth ( 4 thou in old money lols)

@DominicChineas totally no rush! I'm so pleased they were so popular though
Yes..... More stickers, (missed out 😢) plus extras. Glad the 1st orders went well. Stay safe and take care until next week.

Thanks, will do!
Dom, could you have made a plug to go in the third hole with a 10mm spigot to go in the steel jig to 'check the alignment once drilled. Also, could you ask people to submit photos of how they have used the stickers? It would be fun to see them.
How do you ensure that the jig you made is rotated to the correct position? If the hole for the punch is not square on, the hole would be in the wrong place. It's great to watch you at work every Sunday. Thak you!
That’s why I machined the flat where the hole goes, I can clock it there with my little angle block
Ah, so that can move in 2 axes, Got it! Thanks.
Just curious why can't there be a hole added to the casting is it no precise enough? The sticker look fab as doze the website.
Not precise enough basically yeah, thank you
Stickers arrived, thank you very much. Looking forward to the Ranalah T-shirts and hoodies.
Thanks for all your content.
Awesome! Thank you!
This might be a silly question but on the one you made a mistake on can’t you drill the holes out over size and sleeve it then drill correctly
Dont know if you own one, but a machinist's spirit level will help you a lot. Mind you it can also send you slightly batty trying to get perfect!
Also, Would beefing up the lower support arm slightly limit the flex?

You're doing some great work!! I see you're using stepped drill bits, what brand are they?? Looks like they cut like butter! Would love to have a set!
They are awesome!!! Made by Wurth, not cheap, but they are so good!
When I get those "Your accident" calls, I pipe up and say "Oh, the one I died in..." Had one agent for 5 minutes with that, such fun.
I just tell them to jog on in slightly more colourful language! Namely Foreign Office lol
