Making The Regulator And Suspension Post
🕑 Added 2016-04-30 04:06:40 +0000 UTC Hi Folks,In this video I make the suspension hardware that will support the pendulum. There's a bit of everything in this one; lathe, mill and hand finishing work, as well as some heat bluing of the fasteners.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Chris.

Thank you Chris! A beautiful morning, birds singing, bee's buzzing, the last of the "Baby Green" and a Clipspring video... Oh My, food for the soul. Speaking of food, I almost snatched that blued flat head off the screen and popped in my mouth. You've really created an amazing color of blue!! Also appreciated the way you attached that small cable to the silk for a pull...Nice! Squeaks and Giggles and a fine day to you too! ~PJ

Cheers Paul! I'm editing part 2 of the hand vise today, so that should be out for you in a few days :)

Will do, there is a bit of that in the next Patron Series video.

Hey John, so far I have not needed to worry about diameter calculations, it seems to work for any OD. I find traditional knurling to be quite hit and miss, but this rope knurl is surprisingly quick and easy. Cheers mate :)

Great job as always
Scott Clausen
I can only echo what's written below. This is so great!
Brent Reed
Hah! I am with Scott, a much needed fix indeed! Thanks
SCOTT SWAALEY
Ahhhh, I feel like an addict getting a much needed fix. Thanks Chris!

This was a nice surprise. I was waiting for part 2 of the hand vice but even better we get a new clock video. Great work as always..

Really cool (as usual). Small request for a future video: Can you make a video where you show your hands while making the different cuts on the lathe (and mill). Having never used a metal lathe before I think it would be quite interesting to see that as well. Thanks!
John Creasey
Did you have to calculate the size of the knob that you knurled so that it would be an even number of divisions?
Milan Juza
Very nice as always! Thanks Chris. Can't wait for the next video!
George Harris
Looks great, interesting to see how it all comes together and how it works. Thanks!

Hey Al, the bluing tray filled with brass chips gives good control of the temperature. Cheers, Chris.
Al McKague
Very nice as usual! How do you control the temperature when you are bluing the screws so that all of them have such a consistent color?

Thanks very much Alan, really pleased you enjoyed it :)

Absolutely gorgeous as always Chris!
