Do you even GRIND, Bro?
🕑 Added 2024-03-28 14:00:11 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
The lathe has been glaring at me for 4 months, it’s time to put it to work. And by "it", I mean me. Which, as you might expect, never goes quickly. And while I can’t promise a super satisfying reveal, can I tempt you with a negative side project total? Who would have believed it?!
Enjoy!

My inner electrical child in me is crying. You made my inner child 😭... I hope your happy!

I'd venture "hyberbola error". Same vein as "cosine error".

Can’t wait to see what you have in mind for hardening and getting things to size! Exciting to see more progress on the lathe curious to see it working in its fully restored glory! As always a highlight to my day getting to watch your videos! Thanks Brandon.

Anyone know what the actual hyperbolic issue is called? I'd like to read up on it. Sounds like an interesting phenomenon
Jeff Loffert
I'd never considered having one, until I got a surface grinder. They go together like peanut butter and jelly!
Brandon Sander
😂 we all got a little bit of our 12 year old selves in us.
Brandon Sander
Nah you are right, I only repaired the one 😂 somehow I literally never occurred to me to upgrade both. Watch it fail the next time i use the grinder 🤦♂️
Brandon Sander
Always!
Brandon Sander
I would be more worried about the impurities from the tip of that janky ass soldering iron 😂 thanks, Erik
Brandon Sander
😁 Thanks, Jeff!
Brandon Sander
🤦♂️ watch it be the next time I use that grinder
Brandon Sander
100% an oven is in my future. Been on the list for a long time honestly and just never bit the bullet as they say. Thanks, Jeff!
Brandon Sander
Somehow it literally never even occurred to me to upgrade both 😂 Watch that one go the next time i use the grinder!
Brandon Sander
That sounds like the best way to go. Still gives "removablility"!

A good friend of mine says they work hard to put the smoke in at the factory, careful you don’t let it out!

Look, nobody denied I was in the right place, but I was just thinking how satisfying it was to watch you take apart these assemblies, and how you don't see neat castings like that anymore . . . then you commented on your inner 12 year old. Yup. Right place.
Locane
I commented too fast. Serves me right for commenting while watching 😂
Locane
I have to say, unfortunately, how disappointed I am you didn't do both springs 😞 If the first one failed, how long till you're taking it apart again?? 😢 Lol

Ah, it seems that you let the magic smoke out 😅 always worrying when that happens. As a side note - an old friend of mine who's an electrical engineer and an overall wizz of electronics once told me - when soldering, you should never blow on the solder you just applied to cool it down/blow away the smoke. The idea is that the water in your breath can contaminate the solder joint, thus causing impurities and eventually cracks. I'm sure that's a serious case of "being overly cautious", but thinking about it, it kinda makes sense. Absolutely not a deal breaker considering the application, but probably worth knowing 😉 Brilliant work as always, Brandon.
Jeffrey Spoor
that spring should absolutely not been 'free ballin' it in there' LMAO. Another great job Brandon
Matt B
Tell me tell me you fixed both sides of the grinders motor... Otherwise a side project is coming again.
Jeff Loffert
Nice job on the I.D. grind Brandon! And the electrical sparks are always fun to watch......when they're someone else's! :) So, thanks for that! Do I sense a heat treat oven in your future? Would definitely be a worthwhile companion to the grinders.

I was a little surprised that you didn’t change out the other spring while you were in there, but seeing as how the original repair didn’t work, it might’ve been for the best to not mess with anything that wasn’t broken.
Seta
I thought you had an issue with the carriage motor. It is designed identically. I had the same issue with those pesky springs, made brass rings with a set screw and fixed it right up.
