58:19 - Excellent explanation. Was really confused how it worked and theory behind it on how to level the bed, I have seen many showed the test bar cuts but really didn't understood the concept of it. The triangle example makes more sense now. Super informative and provided all the tooling/metrology required. Thanks.
Man I love your detail and in a way I can understand it. Please put out the videos that will help us newbies. I greatly appreciate what you have shown so far
Subscribed 7 minutes into this video. I recently moved to a new workshop and busy building levelling feet for all my machines as I bought the company with used machines. Next up wil be my crankshaft grinder to get scrutinised.
Thank you very much. This is the method I'll try and follow when I'm truing up my lathe. I'm looking forward to watching all your other vids too. Sure I'll learn a lot.
I've been looking at this same lathe for a while now. Very glad to see the complete lvl process on it. Also going to be pretty happy watching you turn out parts and chambering on it. I vote for a floating holder.
Great video, really appreciate you taking us through your process. I will be checking my lathe agin and trueing the tail stock with your method. I vote for solid reamer holder
Hi, thanks for your explanation. I would have liked to see the tailstock's vertical axis calibration. My tailstock is high (0.2mm). How can I adjust it? Maybe a new video?
Man what a great video. I am a 73 year old newbie to the hobby. I am do y’all of this with my labland lathe. I must what to do if the triangle is not equal . The nod was good but when you put your dumb bell in if the ends are not equal what do I do to get it equal
Well crap.. I only have four leveling feet. Two under the headstock and two under the tailstock. I've got it level, but the headstock is off. I've got .017" run out on the chuck too which is not helping things. I have a clausing metosa c1330s and its been quite the learning experience getting it setup and cutting. Thanks for sharing your process. It was interesting to see.
One hour and 16 minute video with 15 minutes information . You might consider speeding up the cutting portions of the video. . Honestly a good video just way too long for many but the newest of machining folks... Sorry if I sound to critical for many but I know if the video is too long you just loose many viewers who really need the information... Thanks for Sharing ...
I prefer a longer video for instructional purposes. I generally feel like important things are being missed or minimized. For entertainment type videos, short is good. For instructional videos, I want all the details possible.
for the newbie. you spend your time tapping on some upper surface of a lathe that obviously has no concern and no adjustment to squaring. What would not be better to move the camera and your pointer stick to the areas to be adjusted?

You are very kind to show how to level a lathe the right way----thanks frank

Excellent and very easy to follow. Thanks for sharing!
Tremendous information for me!! Very useful!!!!
I vote for a floating reamer holder. Thank you for showing the detailed steps for tuning up a lathe.
Excellent presentation I really like your attention to detail and the way you strive for perfectionism. Thanks, Lou

Awesome video!!! I'm getting my first lathe and setting up my lathe to your advise.
well done, loved the detail
I'd say I'd like to see the non-floating reamer holder, in detail and of it being set up and used to chamber a rifle barrel.
Thank you. Excellent explanation, very informative. Worth every second.

Very good straightforward info !
Thanks very good
I miss your posts, I hope you come back to youtube with more informative videos.
Hi, thanks for your explanation. I would have liked to see the tailstock's vertical axis calibration. My tailstock is high (0.2mm). How can I adjust it? Maybe a new video?
…I believe that was covered in the video…that is what your torque setting adjusts and that is why it is important to use same torque value…
Thanks for the info. What chuck are you using? I noticed it is 6 jaw.
That is a bison tru set chuck…I actually go over that in a different video…intro to new lathe…it’s a pretty nice chuck
Did you show in the video the adjustment on the headstock, where it’s located?

Appreciate the time you put into this. What leveler feet do you have on there? Just picked up a new to me lathe.
I'm interested in the solid reamer holder
Hi, could i use a self levelling laser to get the level to be true???
Thanks.
What oil do you use in your lathe?
speed up please

I dont think you could get any more cut and dry with a how to video, only thing more you could do is just go level every viewers machine in person.

All that high and mighty calibration talk then you claim that your caliper are to the tenth COME ON MAAAAAAN !!!!!!!!!!!!
You do realize "tenth" is short or slang for tenth of a thousandth or a thenthousanth or .0001, right?
So lets be clear i see my calipers as a tape measure not as a close tolerant instrument + or - maybe .001 @@DoorKnocker
Did you fart at 14:29 i knew this was a comedy when you said your digital calipers where good to the tenth
Too rambling
