thats not a bad little lathe ya got there. seems to have the proper adjustments and good RPM`S.... i would however add a steady bearing to the center of the shaft to eliminate the chatter and the blades you are using to shape yer tips, i would go to a blade that is only sharpened from one side. Your centering with the adjustable colletts and the dial indicator is bang on... very few cue repair guys use them or dont even know how to do that. It comes in really handy when someone wants a shaft repaired that is sanded or worn out of round... I`ve been doing repairs and making cues for 40 years on my own DIY lathe... 2 thumbs up from me!
I was going to build a center support with a couple of skateboard wheels but i never did it. Now i only use carbide tooling for the tips, you can see the attachment at the center-low of the video at the beginning. For some reason they dont come really sharpened, i have to sharpen them myself. I will show the attachments in a video. Thank you for your feedback.
Very impressive, i just tried to make one myself not nearly as nice as yours. I didn't even think to make a cross slide for cutting and shaping. but this gives me a lot of ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Wow great work!! This is fantastic, I love the design too! I will be building this! I've been playing pool for about 3 years now and it's very hard to find someone to replace a pool cue tip in my area, the last guy I took my cue to the tip fell off during a tournament after a couple of games lol! After seeing your video it has motivated me to get into this! You should also consider developing another mount that holds the pool cue butt as well. I would love to learn how to re-condition a pool cue. I'm about to pull out my old 3D printer and get it up and running again so I can start building this. Once I get my 3D printer running I'll make the purchase for the Complete files list. Thanks for your hard work and sharing this design with us!
Thank you for this, beautiful design! I have been designing a similar one and was skeptical about a 3D printed tool cross slide. Seems yours is rigid for this task. You have inspired me!
Great job and a creative solution! If I may offer you a bit of advice, the less overhang in front of the bearing the more rigid your setup will be and less runout to contend with. I really like your adjustable collet design, I may have to build one and try that out. Thanks for sharing.
Yep, i should had clamped directly on the ferrule. This is a test of the lathe i did two years ago. Since then i have become more technical. Thank you for your feedback
Hola, Emilio!! muy buena tu idea. me preguntaba si tienes los STL de las demas piezas para imprimir el printer completo? muchas gracias por compartir con la comunidad.
Dear Emilio, where can I get this black "bearing housing" ? I think this type is necessary to press the collets with full length into the bearing 🙂 Thank you in advance.
Working on it. Files and 3d printing instructions are done, i just have to edit the video and double check for errors. Unfortunately i have a ton of things coming up all the time and i have very little time.
Great machine! What kind of profile are your aiming for your tip radiuses? Did you develop that gauge by yourself? I'm curious, i never founs good information on how to diy that
Yes that gauge is a 3d printed part that i did using freecad and my 3d printer. It has 4 radiuses,: D, P, N, Q. Which correspond to the radius of 4 us dollar coins, Dime, Penny, Nickel and Quarter. Is an old system most pool players use.
No, the tightening forces are very small and the inside of the collet is tapered to match the profile of the shaft so the lip inside the collet makes a lot of surface contact with it. Ofc after 3d printing it you have to make sure there is not bumps inside and sand off any irregularity if there is any. In doubt one can always put a piece of paper or vynil tape and choose a collet size a bit bigger.
Grazie mille del video, i file per la realizzazione del progetto li hai trovati online o li hai modellati tu? Ho un FabLab e mi piacerebbe far replicare il progetto .
Hi Emilio! Very nice machine! Congrats! 👍 My previous message was deleted perhaps of the email which I givve you! I'm a carom player and built also a lathe to repair my shafts... but my lathe is too robust... Yours is a real shaft repairng tool! 👍 Could you please make an exact list of componnents, spare parts and materials (specification) of your machine? Motor, gears, collets, ball bearings, rail and so on? What about the files of the collets? Thank you very much for the effort Best regards Roman
It is only 200 watts, you can stop it with your fingers. But i get your point, once my left glove got caught in the sds drill of a big bosch hammer. Thank god the glove just ripped apart off my hand and didnt do me much damage.
Ciao Emilio, complimenti per la realizzazione della tue idea. Sei intenzionato alla vendita o potresti darmi info sull'acquisto delle parti necessarie alla realizzazione....non saprei fare di meglio. Grazie!
No, mi dispiace. Ci vuole troppo tempo per stampare tutte la parti e sono troppo occupato. Sto preparando i file e la lista de i componenti per scaricare per se qualcuno vuole farsi il suo. Grazie
I dont sell them but this weekend i will put the collets files in a link so you can download them and 3d print them yourself. I will also make a short video explaining the concept and how they work, they are quite original.
Yes when using a cutter blade to cut chunks of the old tip it will happen because much force is needed and the shaft is quite flexible. It would have been better to chop before the old tip as much as possible before working on it on the lathe.
That is what is called a 'collet'. I made a separate video explaining them. They are made with a 3d printer. The files are free in the second link in the description.
I am sorry i don sell these. I linked the files of the collets in my other video, you can download the files and find a friend with a 3d printer or get one.
Neat, but I strongly suggest that you make a proper holder for your razor blade. If you were to get a catch on the work that blade can pivot in many different ways- most of them bad for your health. I have done woodworking lathe work for over 40 yrs and a few decades of that working on whippy work like pool cues, and have had many close calls. Work safe!
Thanks! This simple lathe can use a variety of tools, the clamped cutter blade is the simplest and the first i used. I will make a video showing the others as soon as possible.
The problem with it is that producing parts in a 3d printer is a very slow process, i couldnt produce such kits at home. I am putting together a set of plans with the files of all the parts so people can 3d print them themselves
Vslot 4080 extrusion, carriage and wheels from the same system, 3205 bearing, dc 48v spindle with er11 collet, small motor controller and power supply... and a lot of 3d printed parts i designed myself. I am putting together a video and some files to download. Is coming, but i have been terribly busy these days.
@@emilioarroyomohamed Well keep in mind that this type of lathe can go for over $1,500.00. I don't think the market is huge but usually a pool hall will have something like this at their disposal for doing new tips on house cues.
Only criticism...you shouldn't be wearing gloves when operating a lathe. Glove gets caught, it's gonna drag your whole hand in. But the lathe looks awesome.
No es un modelo a la venta en comercios, se trata de un proyecto 'hazlo tu mismo', hecho con piezas hechas en impresora 3d y partes que se encuentran comunmente online
I designed the 3d printed parts in freecad and printed them myself in an Ender3, the rest of the hardware i bought from different websites like aliexpress, amazon, etc.
I can change ferrules with it, but using a special attachment that consist in a air micro grinder instead of the cutter blade, it does a very good job @@martins.228
That is one bouncy lathe when cutting the tip, not a very accurate razor placing. While it may look nice, I wouldn't risk that razor snapping and flying into my face or damaging a cue with the very wabbly plastic printed collet with plastic jaw design. Looks nice, may be a cheap DIY for your own quick tip replacement but not for woodworking or more precise work.. You can buy a good quality lathe through temu for a few hundred more and without needing to get a 3d printer for making plastic parts. Very creative, points for that.
Watch my other video where i show the cutting process using proper lathe tooling. This lathe is not intended for woodworking, just for tips and ferrules change.
This is a diy project, not a production machine for sale. I have designed and built it myself. The only way to get one is to make it yourself. It needs a fdm 3d printer to make the plastic parts (any cheap fdm 3d printer will do), and the rest of the parts are very easy to find in aliexpress. In the links in the description are the plans and the files for the 3d printer.

Do you do commission work?
No i am sorry
I would use carbide lathe cutters instead of razor blades.
Wouldn't be too hard to adapt.

Thanks a mil. You are not perhaps interested to build and sell these ? @@emilioarroyomohamed
Very nice! Do you have any issues with leaving marks on the shaft when you are tightening it down with the set screws?
No, the tightening forces are very small and the inside of the collet is tapered to match the profile of the shaft so the lip inside the collet makes a lot of surface contact with it.
Ofc after 3d printing it you have to make sure there is not bumps inside and sand off any irregularity if there is any.
In doubt one can always put a piece of paper or vynil tape and choose a collet size a bit bigger.
Thanks! Looking forward to the follow up videos for the rest of the build!
