- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ต.ค. 2020
- Teardown and get the headstock problems fixed. Next part im going to give it a really good clean up and new paint coat. rescrape compound (maybe cross slide also) dovetails.
As always, Thanks for watching guys!
Thanks for your support: / calem21 - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
How anyone can possibly understand that gear system, disassemble it, fix its problems, and get it back together in a perfectly working way is completely beyond me. You, Sir, are a master of witchcraft. I bow down with deepest respect.
This rebuild is well worth it, moriseiki machines are probably the best build machines out there.
I´m studing for a university subject about fabrication tecnology and this year, due to cuarantine, practical learning is impossible. This must be one of the most instructive videos i have been seeing this year, amazing work
Well, good thing you caught the internal issues before they got any worse on you. I always enjoy watching your work.
Thank you sir.
You are a man on a mission and you know what you want. I hope your endeavors pay off. Thanks for sharing.
This kid is the real deal, just one hell of a gifted machinist and mechanic with a great work ethic.
and if that wasn't enough, he's a very gifted artist
Ya dude is a go getter for sure!! Knows his shit love this channel
Ya I've seen some of his work wish I could pop over to his shop and work on something lend him a hand but oceans divide but machinists will conquer!!!!!!!!
One of the few on youtube who REALLY know their craft. This channel is an absolute gem!
Sheet pan under table storage is awesome. Great idea.
Really excellent work CàLem! Keep them coming.
All the best, Uncle Robin
Thanks uncle Robin ;)
You are still one of three TH-cam channels that I give a thumbs up to BEFORE I watch the video! Anxiously awaiting your next.
Thank you ;)
From the start I've loved Ca Lem's perfectionism. It seems this lad just doesn't know HOW to cut corners. He doesn't stop at "Good enough" if there's a chance that by putting more work in would upgrade that to "Perfect"!
If it wasn't for me being about half the globe away from him, and not wanting to risk it to shipping companies, I'd have already been negotiating to try and commission him to fully strip and restore my well used (But still worth restoring if I had the time) vintage lathe.
Reman1975 I'm sure that once borders are open again, he'd be open to a sponsored commission in your country!
@@seanrodden6151 Yes a paid working vacation.
@@seanrodden6151 That's all very well, but If we did it that way he'd need to bring a fair chunk of his well equipped workshop with him to do the work. :D
It would be easier to get my lathe to his workshop than his workshop here, but it would still cost more than the lathe's worth just to ship it there and back.
That lathe to start with is in very good condition 😎
The way you use a hammer... so skillful. I usually cringe when I see anybody pull out the hammer, but you use it like someone who has rebuilt a million transmissions or other gear boxes. Much respect to you sir. Nice work as usual
Met a chap in the 70s who worked in a naval gun factory before WW2. They had a big lathe to shape gun barrels for naval guns. The tool holder was on a platform with a chair on it. You sat in that and supervised the tool as it slowly moved along the barrel, starting at one end in the morning & getting off the other end for lunch. Imagine the drive system on that thing. I wish I'd seen that in action.
What incredible workmanship in restoring an obviously uncared for magnificent machine.
That gearbox has had a pretty easy life so far. I like flushing gearboxes like those out with kerosene, since it prevents flash rusting while things are dry and doesn't matter if you get every single drop out, since it doesn't hurt the gear oil. Nice spindle you got there, as a comparison a Monarch 10EE or Hardinge HLV spindles are held to around 1 micron or better. Mori-Seiki are excellent manual lathes. They are still very popular in job shops in Japan.
I feel like blue grey is the best color for manual machine tools.
Slow down and let us take in all the details of your professional workmanship, To get where you are now lots take at least 10 videos(abusive), not that slow but its just nice watching you do things properly. You do realize once finished you will have to build a soap box to stand on to operate it, its a beast, bueaty & the beast all in one. looking forward to your next video as always. If the video was over an hour long I think most would watch in awe, then rewatch just in case they missed something. thanks for sharing
My stone age computer couldnt handle that long video render.
@ but you got "new" lathe to play with.
@ Make separate parts! Even slow down and explain what you are thinking. I would love that! More, more, more!
Okay, well... as much as you have time for. :-)
Amazing, truly appreciate all of time and effort put into this. I hope you keep it ! Don't sell it, nobody will ever appreciate it more than you my friend. Love this content!
Man, those old Mori Seikis are a nicely made machine. That thing is going to last centuries if it's maintained.
Thank you very much, nice job! I must've missed the head stock bearings, would've liked to see their setup & adjustment. It looks very well used, not abused and well taken care of.
never seen the headstock broken down before, very cool. you are a pro
Такому мастеру и помошники пожалуй не нужны ! Работа приятно посмотреть , молодец !
That workbench with those trays in it is a really good idea. Great for rebuilding equipment.
The lathe is a beast, like a 2 ton wristwatch and you opened it up without reservation. Excellent work.
You are very good at what you are doing. Enjoyed watching.
Nice surprise to watch with my coffee waking up😉✌🏼I do believe there isn’t anything you can’t reassemble or fabricate!
Off to a good start so far, hopefully no major issues.
Thanks for sharing,
Cheers
Your videos are so nice! You are living proof that art and engineering can go hand in hand.
These are great lathes. I have the same model (you are inspiring me to give mine a spa day). It's a work horse.
A work of art. A true joy to behold. The knowledge and care you take in your work really shows! Thank you for sharing it with us all.
Props to you for the work on the machine and for the video; both are of excellent quality.
Great to see you again. This machine will be a gem you you finish it. You have so much talent.
buddy you are a good repairman great job done! it's nice to see how old machines are given a new life ...
Your skill and work is exceptional ! You are an inspiration
Thank you! Makes it look easy. Nice to see the insides of what is clearly a well made machine.
You Sir are an amazing individual with the ingenuity and skills to be successful! Thoroughly enjoy all of your videos.
Even if I could get it apart, I'd still be shitting myself that I'd never get it back together. To tackle jobs like this takes a calmness and self-confidence that knowing one will be able to work it out, or actually knowing how it's done. Either way deserves a great deal of respect.
an epic machine,extremley high quality, mori seiki now involded whit german manufacturer Maho,so i have some experience whit similar machines,very nice things,nice buy Ca Lem,i think u'll be happy whit it
I really like the restoration process like this, a lathe like that is similar to the lathe on my campus, and I really like the maintenance process related to machines.
This machine lasts absolutely for good if maintained like the operator manual tells you to. Only really wearing parts should be the brake disc and brake pads and chuck, maybe belts and a few little parts. Everything is carefully engineered to maintain precision over decades of hard work but if the service is not done, then you need the repairs...
@@MF175mp Thank you for your input, I still have a lot to learn outside of my campus, oh yes, greetings from us students from the Bandung State Manufacturing Polytechnic campus kampus
@@gunpermana6867 I'm in a similar school myself, Mechanical Engineering second year and a hobby machine shop
Ambitious teardown and rebuild. Always a pleasure to watch you work.
For the future.... hit the headstock with hot air gun or even a small propane torch prior to beating in the outer races. Helps a lot.... allowing nearly push fits until it cools down. Not much heat is needed as those outer shells have very little interferance fit from the get go. Nice work.... ive done lots. Always fun.
Cà Lem, I gotta say you have the patience of a saint. I was wondering if you were going to replace the bearings and sure enough, sitting quietly on my hands and waiting, you did replace them (I guess your going that far may as well huh...lol) That machine is going to run like a dream (of damn near like new at any rate). I am looking forward to watch you doing all the body work and paint on that old girl, she's going to be a sweet addition to your shop line up. Glad to see your doing well, hang in there and stay safe! Cheers from Canada!
Thank you sir!
Lots of work there, looking great CaLem. That is going to be a great machine. Take care.
Thanks uncle Randy.
This lathe is going to be a gem once you have finished it! 👍🏼
Fantastic lathe and video and no pointless background music !. Looking forward to the next instalment. You must have a photographic memory too 😀
You're a great mechanic Ca, I hope you go far and enjoy every moment!
Cool vid, nice lathe. Can’t wait too see the finish lathe. 👍
Looks like another awesome machine, spindle runout!!! Like your improvised slide hammer, sometimes that's what you got to do...
Your rockwell will cry in mercy.
@ It's a monster for sure! The tail stock is as large as my head stock.
Im doing a lathe restoration right now too. A much smaller bench top Logan. You’re doing an excellent job and your videography is superb. Subscribed
Those gears at the end were smooth.
Looks like a beautiful piece of machinery, the Japanese make excellent stuff.
I once had to reassemble the headstock of a DLZ 180 Präzimat.
It's a 120kg hobby lathe with almost as many gears as the Moriseiki, only tiny.
Three of my fingers still have a permanent bend in them.
Thanks Ca Lem from your video. You are awesome young man! Huge progress in just one video!
New lathe. Very good.
Awesome! Another beautiful piece of machinery. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Ca Lem, liked your video, as always.
You do very nicely with the equipment available to you.
Love the 'I'll just move the bearing in a bit' work around, hope it works for another half life!
Looking forward to the next instalment.
Hey Carl - fancy seeing you here! Agreed - Ca Lem does a great job with minimal equipment, but the equipment list is growing with each episode, he's now built the roll-around gantry with electric lift. I would love one of those (and the space to operate it)!
I love your production quality, and the choice of shots. Superb work, looking forward to seeing the rest of the series!
👍took some guts to go that deep. You're very talented my friend. Great job!
That is one fine lathe you got there.
Gears are running like clockwork! Well done! With so little runout on the spindle, you will be able to make some crazy accurate parts.
Old lathes can be used again
Moreover, because it is made in Japan, it is sturdy and can still be used in active service.
I'm glad to see it
Camerawork, metalwork, the lathe, all beautiful
I know when someone has talent. I’m telling you now this guy knows what he’s doing. Thanks for sharing
Those improvised pullers are genius
Haven't seen you for a while.
Glad you are getting the MS running. It will be beautiful I'm confident.
Can't wait for the next one.
Amazing work as always. One tip - turn off the auto-focus on the camera, just set your shot, then the work area remains clearly in focus no matter how your hands or tools enter the shot. Looking forward to seeing chips !!!
Thanks man. I never thought my camera got so good AF like that lol
To be honest I think your films should be longer. Around 2 hours would be nice, then they would be perfect for a nice movie evening with some popcorn.
I really love your films and I admire your ability to remember where all the pieces go after the disassembly. I have a Meuser M1L that I need to restore so I need to watch your films carefully to learn how it is done :-).
Can't wait for the following parts!!!
Go take it apart bro. So much fun i promise LOL
As always, excellent work young man! Looking forward to following this rebuild.
Sweet! Really excited to see the video and your progress on the new restoration. Great film quality, camera shots, and editing! I look forward to the next video.
You continue to impress! I can’t understand how you know how to put this back together. Can’t wait for the next video. Keep it up buddy!
Rebuild it and they will come👊👊
Nothing better than a restoration vid
You do such good work. I can't wait for part 2
Your so great at this. I love watching you do this.
I wish I had your job, it must be so satisfying.
Stay well and thanks for all your videos.
Ash from Scotland 🏴
Awesome job Mate 👍 great choice of machines can’t go wrong you can see the workmanship that has gone into it, cheers 🍺🍺 stay safe
Great work on this restoration! Really enjoyed watching you put it together.
Just "discovered" your videos. Amazing. Artist and craftsman in one. Thanks for all the great vids to watch while I'm not in the shop :) On another note, that Mori is a beautiful machine - great machine and a really fine restoration!
Your content is outstanding! Love your attention to detail
It's nice to see you again Calem working on your sweethearts :D It's odd when I watched the video how similar are the lathes, lets say from Japan and mine which is from former Yugoslavia. Gearbox is similar but not so big, because mine is a small lathe. I had also some big problems with knocking sound in lathe, changed all bearings from where the sound was coming with no success. After third teardown I noticed some hard to see markings on the shaft of gearbox and on the sprockets...I aligned them and ground one tooth on the other sprocket (guess one time something exploded in it and grabbed the tooth) and the knocking sound was gone. I'm happy now but wear on the slides still bothers me allot to hand scrape it but never scraped nor I don't have a tools, straightedge surface plate, etc... to do it... Can't wait for more on your restoration of this beautiful lathe...It really is big hehehe All the best Calem

It's an impressive piece of work you do.
Super nice work!
Cool to see the insides of this Moriseiki. I have the Okuma of similar vintage and size and always wondered about the differences.
Good to have you back :) One thing that never will leave my mind is, how you manage to know which part and screw to put where. Even with your storage system, I'd have a lot of trouble with spare components at the end of reassembly :D
That's one advantage of filming the disassembly: you can refer back to the video to see where everything goes when you reassemble.

Thank you for sharing!
I always look forward to your videos.
It is always inspiring to see someone who is so skilled doing the precision work that you do!
Thank you again! :)
CaLem, that was another great video. I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product, I'm sure the result will be just like all of your other projects...beautiful!!
Thanks for sharing!
Best,
Jon
Thanks Jon ;)
Esse mecânico que faz restaurações é muito competente e admirável. Parabéns!!!
Very good as always. You’re such a talented young man 👍🏼
Cool that this showed up; I'm working on a (much smaller - and not as nicely made) Taiwanese 12x36 (approx 300x900 mm) Jet
Keep up the good work!
She's going to be a beauty when your done....nice work
That is one heavy duty lathe...great score !!
Man ur killing it keep up the good work
Great to see you back restoring
Nice work!! that lathe was already in good condition....now it is even better!
Nice job. Really seems to know what he is doing.
Looking great Cà Lem - shame about the worn bearing seat, but you found a good solution for that. Next option might have been to braze it up and line bore it on your friends lathe? Looking forward to seeing the new paint job. Neon green? :) PS: Thanks for your visit recently - that was really enjoyable ;-) Cheers, Craig
Thanks Craig ;)
Awesome restoration and video keep up the great work!
1st lathe i ever ran. Loved that beast
As always : IMPRESSIVE !!! Thank you Master !!!
Love the shelf below the workbench! I use cooking pans like that to organize parts and tools too - cheap and well made, from my local Cash & Carry restaurant supply store.
I admire your work and how precise you do everything. Its awesome to see where you started and where you are now, very motivational i might add. if you like projects why not try building a PCP air rifle with its receiver, trigger mechanism and all the other components etc. Would be awesome to see a vid about that.
I will ended up in jail because of building it here
Thats a pitty...
Great work there, was a pleasure to watch
Nice work there Calem, its going to awesome working on that lathe
In my personal opinion, you have one of the greatest machining youtube channels I've seen so far! Few have the same production quality and dedication to their passion. Even if you rarely do any commenting during the video, the pictures speak for themselves. Its a privilege of modern times that allows us viewers to follow every step of the disassembly (almost) the same way as you do. I have learned some things from you already, always looking forward to new videos. Im excited to see the finale! Also, greetings from Germany!
If a project is worth doing, it’s worth doing right. Carry on my friend.
Yes iv been waiting for this, exciting to see this coming along. thumb up.
