Why not to cut it using an agle grinder? Why not just hit it with a big hammer? The bearing will fly into pieces. Why not to drill-out a separator? Then you can move balls to one side and disassemble the bearing. Or is it just a joke for commenters like me? ; )))
You just need to remove the cage, then the bearings come out the same way they went in! The races destroyed in this video would have made good spacers for use around the workshop, not now.
Yes and no. If you need a round machinable ball for some reason and have access to large ball bearings, this is a quick visual tutorial on partial annealing. I have needed one, 40 years ago. Used similar method, dropped in perlite to slow cooling. Completed machine work on the ball the following day.
No I think you're missing the point. Every machinist should know? We all already know how to cut, drill, tap, and polish parts. Nothing new here for us to learn
I too am trying to figure out the purpose of this video other than ruining a bearing to make handles that are readily available! First I could have ruined the outer race far more efficiently and at lower cost that the consumables I saw used, say plasma torch for ten seconds? Content for the sake of content is getting really stupid.
As good as any way to get it apart I guess. Shows the ability to anneal something so it's machine friendly. My only experience with bearings, is cutting them off shafts, or out of the bore they're in. Oxy Acetylene, and a scarfing tip. Fairly surgical procedure to prevent damage to the parent metal on the shaft/bore.
I wish I had read the comments before I watched. I thought I was actually going to learn something. I guess I did after all. Check the comments first BEFORE clicking on the play button. For that lesson, I thank you Metall Antik
Quite a cool technique to showcase, milling with a lathe very cool. It’s a shame that the ball bearings used as handles as gonna rust in no time though
Actually you can buy bearings at a supply house the ball bearing but you have to buy 50 or 100 all you have to do is take a punch take out the bearing separator that keeps the bearing the keeps the bearing separated and move the bearings to one side and the race will come out
Honestly, I get it. If you want to play and try out things, utilizing materials you have on hand, you would do something like this. The whole process of cutting apart the bearing race on a lathe seems pointless and wasteful, but it's not about efficiency. It's about using your tools in all imaginable ways to know for sure what is good or bad as option. Everyone can speculate, but you never know for sure, until you do it. It's playtime, not who does what the best or most efficiently.
A few years ago a guy selling eye glasses online figured out that negative reviews boosted his search rankings as much as positive ones. So he started insulting his customers, gave poor customer service, etc., fishing for negative reviews, reasoning correctly that most people don't look beyond the numbers.
Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. This video also has positive points 😊 . You are only looking for fault
@@metallantik With the click-bait title you are wasting people's time who actually know something about machining. Same ill intent as the online eye glasses guy.

👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Was thinking the same thing!!

I get the display of lathe skill but damn this job was a waste of time

" too much time on my hands"...
Not everyone lives with overnight delivery and/or a shop with everything they need 2 mins away
"Every machinist should know?" Yes if they want to waste their time.

Why did you show the bearing race in the chuck ? That is called deception.
Why in the hell would you ruin a bearing when you can get individual steel ball bearings from hardware stores and online suppliers.
A Metabo .040 X 4.5 or 6 Disc would have been easy...

The bearing was no good. really?
A great way of making something you already had.
Surface grinder and 1/32 cut off wheel makes precise easy cut right through the case!!
you CANNOT be serious...the human race is spiraling...
What was wrong with the plastic knobs ?
Slow day
They weren't rusting fast enough.

For a real machinist it would be much faster to just free-hand a ball and finish it with a file and sandpaper.
👍❤️
He didn't have a grinder to cut the bearing. He definitely didn't have a ball turning jig.
No angle grinders in that workshop ?.
I made a pinball machine for my kid 45 years ago using ball bearings like that, it worked out pretty nice for him

Nothing a little bit of oil won't stop.
@@adamdelarozza1985 There ya go! Who doesn't love an oily knob in their hand, you freaking knob? You know what doesn't need oil? PLASTIC!!!!
You could have extracted ore from mines and made them instead, that would be easier
Чтобы разобрать подшипник нужно просто снять сепаратор отверткой и шарики снимутся в одну сторону
Bravo Türkiye den selamlar 🎉
What a wonderfull technique, indeed
I replaced my chrome plated drill press handles with plastic knobs for plain stainless steel rods. You don’t need the knobs.
So, yeah, you might do this if that was all you had to work with.
Generally, cheaper and easier just to buy pre-made.
You do need a solid carbide saw for that.. why not just turn the outer ring in half with a regular insert?..
Tout ça pour ça !

I prefer to use a die grinder with a chop saw instead of wearing out my lathe. And it's twice as fast.
But why heat forge it then cut it ? No understand !
The slitting saw runout tho... 🙄😂
😁
That was cool; shows what having skill can do.
❤
Why buy a replacement part for $10 when I can make it myself for $100!!

@@dougj8186 Was this video the only lost time in your life? There is no problem with my video .
Amazing
Why not just turn the spheres from some stock and make them the right size.
I used golfballs as handles om my drill-press !! 🙄😂
I'd get those ball knobs from McMaster. I don't make anything that I can buy as a reasonable price.
What was the aim of this video? Is it to make a SS lollypop? What a waste of time?

Pá habernos matao. Dios te conserve la inteligencia, amigo
Smart work👏😍
❤️🙏
I like to use golf balls, a lot faster and a better grip.
Oh, I see, the “technique” wasn’t about machining at all, it was a technique for killing time!
And you can easily take a die grinder and cut the shells into much easier than what you did.
Just go the hardware store and buy 3 steel balls - better yet, they also sell plastic tapped balls made specifically for this purpose. DUH!!
An endmill would been a better option.
Every machinist already knows that, if they don't, they're not a machinist.
You do realise that the original balls you took off could have had plastic removed and polished 😮😂😂
😁
Thanks for subscribe ❤
The handles worth more than the drill press!
as always perfect
😘❤️🙏
You workin your ass off unnecessarily ! Long way around !!!
Nice
The ball race was worth more than the drill press
Good luck trying to drill a hardend bearing housing😢
gold paw😍👌
❤️🙏
Зачем изобрести велосипед,болгаркой проще
Why not just use an angle grinder 😊😊😊
ANOTHER case of someone' 4 jaw chuck having been punched!
Expensive way to cut a bearing in half cutter won't last long
Cool setup, gave me an idea for my own setup since i don't have a mill. Idk y people are hating this , i like it. Thumbs up from me 👍
Thanks a lot ❤️
Przewaga formy nad treścią. Jak to mówią zamienił stryjek siekierkę na kijek

Имея станок, можно было наточить шариков и не портить подшипник да ещё с такими сложностями.
you can just rip apart the cage with a plier and disassemble the bearing by hand...
Hate clickbait, won't be back here again.
You don't need tempered ballbearing balls. Tungsten can cut it very easy
Thanks 👍❤️
Super.👍
❤️🙏
Es más sencillo (y barato) comprarlas hechas.
why didn't you just cut the outer rig of the bearing with the torch?? what was wrong with the plastic balls? to weak at 90 mph
What was the point of this exercise? I don’t get it. The knobs on his drill press were perfectly ok as they were.😑
Give me your lathe machine and heating torch and I will give you a set of three plastic knob
If you can do you will do 😂
BALLS!!
Really enjoyed what you did, I have great respect for the slitting saw. Well done, keep it up. Blessings from South Africa.
4:27 waste of time.
...that's what I thought too...(!)
А что, имея под рукою токарный станок нельзя было выточить наконечники для ручек сразу?. Видно у специалиста мгого свободного времени, и он его так использует.
Why not just chisel out the rivets, and chrome the balls when done?
Good 👍
Thanks ❤️
Total time west bearing bolls remove from bearing cage without outer cage cut
Boredom build?
Very good
❤️🙏
A hammer blow on each side of the outside bearing race will snap it off quickly.
Noch was das die Welt nicht braucht
OK everyone commenting its about the process.
And the process could have been to remove the cage and disassemble the bearing with no damage whatsoever ( :
La hiciste bien cansada para el fin q llegaste.😂
I saw you and realized that there are more stupid than me
This is an introduction to stupidity.😂😂😂
So? You don't know how to disassemble a ball bearing? Really?
All this trouble to make a ball end? This is available as a hardware item.
This is the result of someone having A. a lathe; B. too much time on his hands, and C. an inflated idea of his level of skill!
echt geil 😍
❤️🙏
Really?
Wow. You turned your lathe into a saw. My jaw is on the floor. (...yawn...)
Bom muito bom
This is a very good joke.
if you want the balls you just rip or drill out the cage and then they just fall out
That's wasted time I will never get back.
pokazuje jak nie robić
Nice knobs on a junk drill press.
