GRINDING On All Cylinders
🕑 Added 2024-02-15 15:00:11 +0000 UTCIn all of my projects there has been one major limitation I have yet to overcome. Precision cylindrical grinding. It's prevented me from hardening my parts which really should be hardened. And has resulted in some of my tooling coming out.... less than stellar. But that all changes today!
Enjoy!

Thanks, Jeff! I hope you had a nice vacation!

I was on vacation when this one released, I looked forward to coming home and watching it. Another great job! Looking forward to the next episode

Wish I could claim it as my own, but was passed on to me by a machinist friend.
Brandon Sander
I sure did π
Brandon Sander
π Oh there's no helping it. Thanks!
Brandon Sander
it helps to have the right tools π thanks, Chris!
Brandon Sander
That's a brilliant idea!

Watching again on YouTube, and I have to harass you. Did you just use a hammer on the pointy end of a transfer punch because you didn't have a drift pin?

Super fun episode. I would love to complement the humor but I figure it would just be encouraging you. Is there a Machinistβs dictionary? A few terms to add! Thanks!

Iβm a carpenter, to me splitting a pencil line is accuracy, I love watching your precision, and approach to problems, you inspire!

Sure looked like it made a nice grind on those centers. When covering up your lathe while grinding, I've found disposable painters drop cloth to work well. And hit it with a fresh mist of WD40 right before you grind and it helps make the dust cling to the drop cloth. Then bundle it up and toss it.
Brandon Sander
I can highly recommend it! I think this thing may be living on my lathe as much as my quick change tool post! π Thanks, Pierre!

The Persuadotron! That's awesome. Thats a really good point about having a smooth hammer face. My original plan was to get the dremel involved to power the thing. But that just started to get out of hand and it spun the wrong direction. The cable was a hail Mary but it worked!
Brandon Sander
I might have to bust out my tricorn for that one π Thanks as always, Jerry!
Brandon Sander
If i thought about it enough I could probably get that side project depth up (down") to 10 π Thanks as always, PJ!
Brandon Sander
Thanks, Jeff! I was a little skeptical of it actually working out. But the proof is in the pudding as they say!
Brandon Sander
Thanks, man!

Darn it! Now I want a tool post grinder even more. Yet an other awesome vid. Keep up the good work.

There's something utterly absurd about using the lathe itself to power that little belt, but it works, and I can't see a reason why you shouldn't. As far as taking time on a tool? You're right. When I was doing sheet metal work, I'd spend hours on my hammers. Everything had to be close to mirror finish, since every mark on that face was embossed every time you swung that hammer. To this day, I hate damaged hammer faces. Although my two and a half pound blacksmithing hammer is in rough shape, but I use it for things like oil changes these days. I call it "The Persuadotron."

Another great video! Highlights: - Created a new genre called ASMAARRRRRRRR!!!! - My second favorite character, The BoS, is no longer anemic because he got plenty of iron - The surface grinder, who lives in the corner and should be renamed βBabyβ , got some use. Also, powering the spindle with the flex line and the lathe was genius!

Sweet gift Brandon! Loved the 5 deep projects aspect of it and the gitterdone with the cable sleeve drive. Beautiful work on the adjustable drive parts! Congrats on another remarkable build and video! Hat Tip ~PJ

Very nice shop addition! I love the flex drive for the live centers.π

Amazing work as always!
