    Literally learned more from this video than anything else in my life on machining. Thanks for sharing.

    60 or 70 yrs. later, and some of these machines are still being used. CNC has taken over with big Companies, but there is always the manual Lathe and Bridgeport off in the corner somewhere. Some small Shops in 2022 are still completely Manual.
    I like the wooden tool box. I wonder if it's a Kennedy

    I have never seen center holes drilled that way. If you did that in a contemporary shop the osha guy would have a fit.

      I learned it exactly this way in my vocational training in 1995.

    I'm amazed at how long it took before ball bearing live centers came into use, being as there were so many other bearing-supported components in these machines.

      Dead centers are STILL the highest precision method. If it HAS to be right on, it has to be on a dead center. Live centers are for production work.

    That is actually the most haggard way to center drill something I have ever seen.

      I guess haggard, HOWEVA.... how many planes from U.S plants flew in WWll and all the planes parts built with this method.... ain't no arguing that! Surprised you didn't attack the hand ground tool or, the tool post holder too! Sheesh millennials LOL

      was he holding it or supporting while centering with the center drill???

    they do not tell you any ways to make sure the centers are centered to each other Uncentered centers will create a taper More so on longer parts

    • @renetr6771
      @renetr6771 ปีที่แล้ว

      The effect is bigger if the part is shorter. But u are right. With a centerdrill that have a radius instead of a taper, u can use this to produce extrem accurate cones.

    FYI this is NOT how to do it; to do a center hole safely, you put the drill in the tailstock, and mount the job in the 3 or 4 jaw chuck, that way your arm isn't ripped off if the drill jams 🙂.
    OR if you have to follow along, do the drilling of the center holes in a drill press first.

      I think the diameter of this work is such that it would not fit through the chuck.

      while i agree with you it's a good way to save time and get the two center hole perfectly aligned. but ... stil a bit too dangerous for my taste.
