Lathe Restoration

- This is my first lathe, it is fully operational, no play, the bed is in very good condition. The lathe is almost 70 years old, so it already looked very bad, the previous owner took care of the machine so I did not have to replace the bearings, or correct the geometry of the machine components.

Just so everyone knows, he didn't record this just so that he could share it with us, but to remember where everything went. Amazing job.
Wise men!
Not too .TO***
That was very smart of him, and something we should all keep in mind the next time any of us take on a project of this magnitude. We all got phones that record stuff right? LOL. Good to know, and thanks for the info.
haha yeah... I was about to ask how do you remember all those screws...
That’s what I was thinking lol I’ve considered doing TH-cam videos working on my cars so I can remember where stuff goes.
The white paint was a bold choice. If I ever redo a lathe I'm painting it grease colored.
Then you are a bad engineer. Any craftsman takes care of his tools. And that includes keeping it clean.
I'm not an engineer at all, I'm too busy making things to engineer them. Can a lathe not be grease colored and clean?
@@michaelstine1201 Oh yes, of course it can. But my point was that it is easier to see where the dirt and grease is on a lighter colour.
Thats just my preference.
@@paullee5573 That's unfair. There's "clean and well-looked-after", and there's "ZOMG ANOTHER FINGERPRINT HOW DID THAT GET THERE I WAS SO CAREFUL!". There are levels of cleanliness that are hard to achieve, and so white is a bold choice given this is a machine that's literally meant to be covered in oil and grease etc to keep it working at it's best. That said it's a personal choice. I thought the "I'm painting it grease colored" was actually just a funny joke, because we all know what he meant.
@@neilbarnwell Neil, As I said, my workshop is used only by me and purely for pleasure. So I am able to keep everything in showroom condition. I fully appreciate that this would not be feasible in a commercial workshop.
But by golly, that colchester look resplendant doesn't it! I learned how to use a lathe on that model. Sadly I have only got a rather elderly drummond round bed. Not nearly so accurate. But, at my age, it will never get replaced now.
As an observer of old technology, being a 60 years old and grew up next constantly to my father who is a truck, car and industrial mechanic , I have a deep appreciation for this machines and the people that are still trying to preserve them. I see those lathes and mills on TH-cam and trust me , the smell of the machine shop were my father use to work I still can feel it.
I too am 60. I have used machining lathes for fixing and making parts for farm machinery. What a job. So nice. There is no reason that machine cannot continue to work for decades more.
observer of old technology? 😂
I trust these machines more than modern ones, most of them still function properly after 60 years, but will the new ones too?
@@taunteratwill1787 he likes to watch
@@godbelow I know what observer means. But saying " I'm an observer of old technology" is just weird at best. 😁
There’s just something wonderful about old gear being restored. Like watching an old stray at the vet and groomer before they jump into bed at their forever home.
You never really know your machines until you’ve torn them down and put them back together. It’s a real bonus if they still work when you’re finished.
@Chris Idema If it still works when you're done and you have extra screws and bolts you just made it more efficient.
@@TheMultiReplayers how many machines do I have to restore to make a million from selling the leftover bolts?
I agree, and my wife thinks I'm crazy...
There is a lot of truth to that. I love the cost savings of buying old tools and the invaluable experience I get from tearing them down and restoring them for use. I learn everything about my tool and it will last me a lifetime of hobby use.
I always get worried when at the end of the rebuild, I still have a few washers left.
Just gives you so much respect for the people who designed these things.
And also the man who designed the machine that made the parts for this machine.. story of the chicken and the egg.

big respect for those who know how to use / work with this great machine !

OK, this takes me back back to the 1970 s. I worked as a machine tool restorer in England , my boss would buy up machine tools such as Herbert lathes ,Capstan lathes , Cinninati milling machines , presses ,folding machines ,from British Leyland and associated businesses I would prep them for resale a d they sold readily I did this for 2 years and it was enjoyable work for an 18 year old ,the company I worked for was called Norman Machinery who at the time were located in Woodchester Gloucester, England.
Impressive. No doubt you cannot find a lathe this well made anymore. Blown away by your ability to remember how this complex machine goes back together.
No doubt you cannot find a lathe this well made anymore. well yes you can but the price is like a expensive new car 50k or even more.
Сможете ещё как! Этот токарный станок не представляет ценности, пока он не будет настроен! Я не видел ни одного ресторатора, который бы сделал станок действительно точным, что придало бы ему ценность. Вся работа данных рестораторов это покрасить и отмыть, от этого, к сожалению, станок хорошим не станет...
@@robert5 If you look at old catalogues and convert the prices to today's money you would realize that that's pretty much how much those quality machines cost even back in the day, some even much much more
There's a video Colchester made detailing its factory operations here on youtube. Saving a Colchester is special beyond just saving an old machine tool. That was a very special factory with some very special and extremely skilled workers. Your restoration is a real show of respect to them, and I can't praise it enough or you for doing it. Well done indeed.
Why was/is Colchester culture better than, say that of Schablin, Monarch, or companies like that? Not arguing with you, just interested.
RTL
He didn’t indicate or check for wear.
He didn’t scrape any of the mating parts to recreate oil passages. They are the two most important things when rebuilding machines.
@@richardlabinka3322 I agree with you but also disagree. He stated right in the beginning it was a good working lathe. That stuff doesn’t always need to be done. Even though that was a student type lathe. It may be absolutely fine. The colchester lathe I rebuilt had a shit ton of hrs on it and all the ways and surfaces were in beautiful condition. So I didn’t scrape it in ether. Just because something isn’t on video doesn’t mean it never happened. Maybe he did check it out. We don’t know.
@@Mad.Man.Marine
My 1964 Colchester Triumph - this lathe's big brother - has very little wear either. I can turn within a tenth all day long - and when I try hard enough I can get within a micron which is incredible on an old production lathe. Mine was owned by a retired toolmaker so didn't get a lot of use.
My favourite lathe when I was an apprentice fitter and turner in the 60's, cant beat a Colchester 😉
That used to be my Lathe, it was a great tool, only 1/2 thou out, screw cutting, there was a three jaw and a four jaw Chuck with it. I operated it from 1978-2012. Trevor
I graduated high shcool in 2016, and these are the types of machines I learned on. These, and an old belt fed Bridgeport we called old yeller because the machines were color coated/coded and it was yellow. 😂 now I work in a cnc machine shop, and while I enjoy it, there's nothing like fully operating your own lathe/Bridgeport, and making pieces.
@@hhcdfhngdzjjbf579 indeed, having that connection with the machine is just something we as humans need,,,
@@chasinsunsets917 make it happen 👍
Classic teaching lathe, too. Just about every technical college and apprentice school had these or Boxfords. My first was a Boxford, second, one of these.
I was wondering why he didn't resurface the "crib rails" using special grinder attachment. In almost all cases(in terms of older..used lathes), the rails will wear closest to the chuck for the simple reasons that a high percentage of machining is done is that area..
You must have kept your rails always well oiled...free from grit to have it out a mere .0005 in.
I can appreciate the fact that you took great care of this machine...and after watching this restoration, I wish I had room in my garage because I wouldn't think twice on purchasing this workhorse as part of my arsenal.
Congratulationa on your 'restoration' of the Colchester. As an engineering apprentice in the early 1960s I worked on one of these - always a pleasure - a lovely well designed machine. I have a 1960s Harrison L5A in my workshop at home - an ex school machine but I think that before it went into the school it had been used commercially. I've done quite a bit of work on it and have acquired 'new' second hand parts and had the 3 HP three phase motor bearings replaced and serviced. I have thought about repainting it but shied away from the job but seeing how you tackled your lathe I might now pluck up the courage to do mine! Thank you for the video.
Absolutely gorgeous! My Dad was a machinist and I grew up around these machines. It put a smile on my face to see and feel the love towards this lathe! Thank you!
I feel like this is how I would like to come to own a machine. Restoring it really makes you think what everything does and you see all the parts in front of you. Then you make it as beautiful as it has ever been and go on to use it with pride, and equipped with intimate knowledge of its features and functions.
this is not a restoration, it is only to paint sponges
@@user-oy6ko4ie8u I have to ask as to why you don,t think this is not a restoration.
Probably because he did not hand scrape or ways or replace various parts that may have gone out of tolerence.... He restored it in my opinion he made it better than it was.
My very first job in 1969 was Foundry Technician. Foundry casting the lathe beds for all the Colchester Lathes. Excellent to see this and all the work to get it back to peak condition. Well done.
Where was the factory
@@wannagofacofflavazza6809 Foundry for the Lathe beds was in Swansea, Wales UK. It closed in 1971, no idea who cast the lathe beds after as the Colchester lathe company is still in existence. I only worked there for 15 months, then moved on to a new job and company in aerospace metals which I stayed at for 40 years until I retired.
You'll find a lot of these around the world - for age of machine.
@@wannagofacofflavazza6809 The factory was, as the name suggests, Colchester, England.
There's a very good TH-cam video on the making of the Colchester lathes of this vintage, including the foundry work. th-cam.com/video/nQaAKUAzK0w/w-d-xo.html
My dad was a service welder by trade. At home he had a lathe in the cellar where I spent much time watching him. So I compliment you on your skill and experience to extend the life of that beautiful machine.
Here I am, Friday evening, glass of wine in my hand, so deep into TH-cam that I'm watching latch restoration videos and loving every minute.
I spent 2 years of my machinist apprenticeship working on the slightly bigger brother of this exact machine. Solid and straight as an arrow. Thanks for sharing!
So did I, we had the Student & Master models in our apprentice school. Great machines.
In this day and age it's nice to see something get refurbished rather than thrown away.
True
Also its not uncommon for machinery like this to be refurbished. Since old cast steel has great characteristics it is still valued by alot of people.
take a look at it...in order to throw that away you first of all have to be able to lift it...whoever put that in there intended for it to stay there...be like trying to trash the Sphinx
It's really hard to throw this away if so you need to put it at a junkyard
Beautiful, turned out really well. That's a machine to keep and be proud of.
Lovely to see the skills are still around to give a lovely old bit of kit like this a new lease on life!. Nice one!.
What a monumental undertaking but the results are stunning. Nice to see a precision machine that size getting some much deserved love.
Well done.
One have to respect the British to put together a quality machine like this. The Colchester Student also qualified alot of freshmen. "The world turns on a Colchester"
You remind me of an old Exide automotive batteries, tv advertisement. The ad said "It all starts with Exide".
@@mohabatkhanmalak1161 Exide: "Still keeps going when the rest have stopped" - on playing cards. Hmm, wonder if they're worth something !
I've broke mine. Never mind, I plan to upgrade it with my own-designed solution that's FAR better !
There was one of these in the workshop that my grandfather worked in for 40 years. Used to enjoy knocking up bits n pieces of tools etc on it. Was amazing what he could turn up and achieve on it. Brought back a lot of memories seeing this machine being restored.
Brings back many memories, that was the first lathe I learned on back in the 1980's.
I remember the backlash on the cross slide was getting bad so I got the job of making new bronze nuts.
Off white? That's a brave choice on a machine that's going to be spending it's life actually being used. It's hard enough trying to keep dark blue overalls looking presentable for more than 30 minutes when I'm busy in the workshop. :D
Secret is to have off-white overalls hanging behind the door to the room with the real lathe. :)
@@solasauto they make newer ones?!!
I can't believe he stripped it down that far. You would pretty much need to know how to make one. Amazing.
Or you have a video of it
This is the student model. Colchester itself made videos of how to tear down this lathe ;)
That is fantastic! Nice to see old machinery salvaged and cleaned up like that, and to put it back in working order. The paint colors remind me of Rikon tools.
Absolutely an amazing job, as a machinist it is so nice to see these old castings being restored. Keep it up pal 👍
I'm italian, so forgive my english.I worked in a company that overhauled machine tools. If you do not grind the guides, make the coupling of them, redo the bushings and nuts and do not change the bearings, you cannot say that you have done a restoration.
It's operational no need
@@gavinwj7923 no no, there's 100% need to change all the bearings and resurface the guides when you do this kind of work. Or at least check if they're still in condition to withstand the work load and be precise with the measurements.
Yes I agree. Nice paint job but no overhaul
@@gavinwj7923 operational doing what making things round or precision engineering ?
my observation as well, however, looks nice.
The machine shop I apprenticed at many years ago was established before WW2 started. It was part of a military laboratory. We had a lathe that was used for turning Naval gun barrels, it was HUGE. Larger than a train car. I would imagine in my mind all the people who had used the machines before me and all the items created by them. Still gives me chills.
That is awesome.
You worked at the dc naval yard back when it still made armaments didn't you
I started my working life as a fitter and turner at Tulloch Ltd at Rhodes in Sydney. It's just lovely to see an old lathe like this restored to its former glory - well done!
Oh takes me right back to the apprentice training school in Rover Group Swindon. Happy days indeed stood in front of these. Still a really great machine tool, wish it was mine.
I love to see older good quality tools being referred. Well done!
Be careful with all those levers, time travel is tricky business.
He also needs to be careful with the lathe fire
Flux capacitor was obviously lost in changing hands. But given time maybe he'll make one from scratch.
Was wondering if this Student was a different size than T.o.T’s
TOT? 😄
I see you're a man of culture as well.
I went to technical secondary school. I learned to use lathe, drills, millers, reborers, and all sort of tool-machines. The school had several lathes, from 100 years old, in some cases, to newer CNCs. I really appreciate seeing this restoring work. Impressive!. Although I must admit that the OG light green these machines comes with hits differently. IDK, I love the green.
PS: I can smell those last few seconds. The hot steel being rolled and the lubricant / coolant. Ahh...memories
The hours and hours of work that went into this 20 minute video....
Splendid job; it's just beautiful.
That was absolutely fabulous; wonderful stuff! So much love, care, attention, and patience. I simply cannot imagine the effort that went into this, or the satisfaction gained by its completion! My hat is well and truly off to you!
Keeping track of all the parts and where they go was/is a herculean task well done mate, from me down under in the land of Aust. !!
That’s probably why he filmed it 😂
Break it down and box it by what assembly it’s a part of
Certainly a very Hercus task...
With all the proper love and caring, this lathe will last at least another 100 years. Excellent restoration!
One of my summer jobs, at my dad's place of employment, was to paint all of the machines in this one area of the factory from green to Grey. My other college buddy and I would spend a week plus scraping and sanding and masking for the new paint. These were end mills and lathes from 4 foot up to 12 foot? This was 40 years ago so the machines were in fairly good shape. We didn't have to go through the disassembly and bondo steps as shown here. We had to learn to operate the machines well enough to move the fixtures in order to clean and paint. I came to appreciate the work my dad did that summer in the loud and un air conditioned space.
Great job showing the inner workings of the machine. Nicely done as well!
Thank you for 22min of pure relaxation in this chaotic world. Awesome job, and great patience!
Hats off, that's an exceptionally difficult restoration to take on, much respect
It’s hard but very satisfying work to restore an old machine. I bought a used Baldor that was so old and rusting that it stunk like rotting fish, but looks and runs (and smells) great now. Excellent work on this. Thanks for sharing your efforts via this video.
Amazing that these machines were built to last, work, and be repairable if they broke. And to think when people ordered these things, they came out of the factory looking like this. Kudos to you sir!
Dude, that restoration was epic! I would never attempt such a task, but I truly enjoyed watching you perform your incredible abilities and workmanship.
Not many people can still do this kind of job!!! Bravo!
Check out CaLem’s TH-cam channel 👍
Beautiful job pal. Glad to see these old lathes being taken care of.

I taught turning on Colchester lathes for 20 years. Amazing workhorses.
Odwaliłeś kawał dobrej roboty. Patrząc na tą tokarkę, przypomniały mi się czasy z zawodówki.
Excellent job. First lathe I ever owned. I totally re-built it including having the bed reground and the saddle turcited and scraped in. Excellent machine - that was the first a three I rebuilt including a 'flat head'. I swapped the flat head and one of the round heads with a machine dealer for my pressent Colchester Master 2500 which I also rebuilt.
I already know having just started this video that this will turn out beautiful....
I wouldn't dare operating a lathe. Let alone tearing one apart knowing it has to go together again.
Nice job!
Wow, that takes me back to my apprenticeship. We had one identical, could've been the exact same one as it was in the same state 😂
Good on him for having the knowhow and determination to actually work on an old lathe to this extent. I think I would be too worried about taking it apart and screwing up on the assembly to ever attempt this, so many tight tolerances to ensure the lathe works correctly and accurately. When my lathe needs any maintenance for internal parts I usually just call the guy who sold it to me, who happens to also runs a repair business for that type of machinery.
See, that's the difference between being a craftsman or just a lathe user
This Old Tony rocks one of these. Nice!
I thought it looked familiar
Does look like it. Might differ in some small ways, hard to tell unless TOT wishes to tear his down for a project video.
I daresay a few people on the Colchester lathes group have them !
Look like This old Tony treats his machinery and compare to what this guy is doing.

Brings back memories. I did a rebuild like this on a Myford Super 7 nearly 50 years ago. Still have the lathe. Everybody who runs a machine tool should know how to tear it apart and put it back together.
What I like is how it is set to the speed of everyone's imagination.
"OH yeah. I'm gonna freshen up my lathe should take like 20 minutes ". LoL. Great video. Thanks
It's amazing how much a parts washer/solvent tank would make your life better bud.
Agreed!
I’m always mind boggled that they could design these things without CAD. So complex. Amazing.
Did you know the SR-71 was designed with pen, paper, and a ruler. The capacity of human ingenuity is truly mind boggling.
its just an idea thats been getting improved over and over and over until someone REALLY stepped it up a notch.
This is ridiculously cool. No amount of likes will suffice the effort put into this work!
Brilliant resto, you've done a fantastic job. Thanks for sharing 👍
I’m convinced he only does the videos so he knows where all the parts go to reassemble it. Posting on TH-cam is just a bonus.😊
Nothing wrong with that. Especially if you're doing it over a prolonged period, as is often the case with MEs.
Yeah I would have a bunch of clean, painted, scrap steel
This has to be one of the most complicated restoration I've seen so far. Great work!
Actually if you own a machine like that and perform the maintainance yourself, you already know how to disassemble and reassemble most of it. (My father maintains his lathes probably once every years)
And what you don't know you'll learn from the manual. At the end it's just Lego for the big boys. Overwhelming at first but easy once you got the hang of it.
Beautiful job on the old Colchester. Hopefully you replaced any worn bushings or bearings in the old girl. I'm a little jealous she isn't sitting in my shop right now. I use an old LeBlonde Regal lathe daily. Will be using it tomorrow. I am no machinist, but know more about them than most kids these days. Wonderful job restoring the old girl. :-)
Love this video. Always see people get their machines and they all usually say “I’m not going to change the color so it can keep it’s natural paint” or whatever so it’s great to see someone actually repaint one. 😅
You don’t have to be a machinist to appreciate this...but I’ll tell you as a machinist it’s really nice to see her back to new and think about all the guys that spent all those days working with her.
You're right, cause I'm not, and I did, lol. He really did do a fantastic job.
If I did that, I'd have enough parts left over to build another lathe!
Nice job!
And a wheelbarrow.
I’d just have a box of bits that used to be a lathe !
Nice work,respect
It's so good feeling when you restore something old,,abandoned,neglected...
Oh WOW !!!
Can't believe it.
The Colchester Student was one of the main models I used while serving my Engineering Apprenticeship in 1981 - 1983.
Talk about bringing back memories !!!
Disappointed that it wasn't resprayed the original (or close to) "Colchester Green", but it does look nice (though i notice that the inside of the tail stock has been left the original paint colour) Glad to see during his test runs that the emergency brake stop works well.
Probably the best restoration I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t even want to use it I’d just sit there and look at it.
Fun fact.... a good many of the parts on this old lathe were made - on an even older lathe!
Lathes all the way down.
But... how did they make the first lathe?

An act of love in restoration…and what better to restore than classic Colchester Student. At 70 years old and can still hold tolerances and better with all these new Chinese lathes.. A job well done..
Am I the only one who gets scared when he takes it all apart fearing that he wouldn’t be able to assemble it again?
Yes, but then I remembered he's filming it, so he can go back and check where everything goes. Still scares me though :-)
same thing! I was like "I wouldn't be able to remember how to reassemble that, this dude is crazy"
Well you learn to keep track of things. Looks like he's use to working on big stuff. You know what parts do what. So there really is not a need to keep track. Maybe small stuff but it's not as hard as you think
make a disassembling video and later play it backwards
That's a lot of parts...

My cousin has restored two metal lathes, both of which looked like rusted boat anchors, and an old Milwaukee milling machine. All to full functionality. Also, if you're ever in the Dubuque, Iowa area check out the Mississippi River aquarium and museum. They have a fully restored, belt driven, machine shop on full display there. A true work of art.
Looks like a top engineer to me, credit where its due he has shown what can be done, also brilliant British engineering, they don't make them like this anymore !
Didn't realize how many parts on those lathes are made out of stainless steel! I have a Clausing in my shop and it's awesome!
There is something oddly satisfying in watching these type of videos. I fill a nice glass of whiskey on ice and set back and watch this thing come to life........
The joys of retirement, but who chose the paint scheme? idk but I'll take another JB black on ice though.
Same minutes the rocks
Nice, i bought a 130 yo HENDY lathe. it took 6 months to rebuild. now works like new. keep up the good works. make it live again.
These machines are fabulous. What you have done is fantastic!!!
a man after my own heart. I admire your thoroughness and courage while envying your resources.
Niesamowita robota i niebywała determinacja! Mistrz! 😎👌
Outstanding work!!! What a beautiful restoration... You're lucky that all the bearings and way surfaces were in good condition, made all the other work you did worth the time and effort. There's too many machine tool "restoration" videos here on TH-cam, where the individual takes a pretty roached out machine, strips, fills and paints it, polishes metal, etc. but doesn't do a darn thing to the bearing/way surfaces. So in the end it's just a
"pretty" or cleaned up, but worn out machine.
Well done and now you have a great machine to use for your projects...
Nice to see a Colchester restored and refreshed.
Used as a training lathe in many high school machine shops, post WW2.
Selecting White for paint color - Bold (often used with food machines).
I didn't skip the Ad because its a full restoration, that deeply satisfies me.
Except it's not a full restoration, it misses rectifying the part that always wears out on a lathe. Pointless without the bed being scraped or ground. Probably needs a new leadscrew too.

Wonderful! I come from Colchester and my town used to make these lathes - unfortunately Colchester is now a chain town and only makes coffee for shoppers
Lathe's, the grand-daddy of all machines.
The first turning machines were bent over flexible trees with rope wound around to turn the work piece. A wood strip or lath was used to support the rope. This is why then name Lathe was coined. They are one of the oldest forms of machinery.
Nice work man having been in mfg my whole life and moved up these old pieces of equipment, if maintained, stand the test of time incredibly well and they sit until they're needed and every time we'd made a decision to kick them to the curb we regret it down the road.
Very impressive. Crazy to think a lot of these machines will out last some of us

@@DimitryM а тем более, не реставрация. Не знают они что такое реставрация. Ни одной шестерни не заменил, ни одного подшипника не поменял - все в отл.состоянии - отмыл, отчистил, покрасил, молодец, конечно...
Это просто покраска станка. Реставрация - это вообще другое.
Не соглашусь, не только покрасил, но и очистил, отполировал некоторые элементы, обслужил, заменил смазку внутри, прокладки и т.д. И ты такой пишешь, что просто покраска...
@@user-cz2tb4pw8l ну хорошо. Покрасил и обслужил. Реставрация - это не оно
@@Elevate_your_dream А что ты ожидал, если сам станок технически исправен и по сути надо было его только обслужить и придать вид.
@@user-cz2tb4pw8l точность не проверялась. И судя по станку с ней надо поработать
@@user-cz2tb4pw8l как ты определяешь исправность станка? А настройка после разборки- сборки
Great and unbelievable work! 👍I did similar some years ago, restoring an old car lift. I got let dry ice blaster. That removes AL the outer old dirt, grease and oil without damaging the the electrical and mechanical components. The "ice" disappeared immediately and leaves only a bucket full of dirt.
Maestro lo felicito por la gran restauración que realizó
