Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 19 – CAD

No the podcast is not dead!  After a very large pause (for various reasons – a story for another day) the podcast is back with an episode recorded way back in September.  Nevertheless the conversation is timeless and just as applicable today as it was when it was recorded.  In this episode John Saunders, the man who went from a humble machine shop apartment in New York City to a full fledged machine shop in Ohio, joins us and talks shop.  Some of the things we talk about include:   CNC machine tools of all sorts! CNC tooling April Fools day jokes SMW Johnny 5 Telsas, Makerspaces and the future.  And much more!  You can listen to it here: https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/episode_018_NYCNC.mp3 or you can download it directly.

No the podcast is not dead!  After a very large pause (for various reasons – a story for another day) the podcast is back with an episode recorded way back in September.  Nevertheless the conversation is timeless and just as applicable today as it was when it was recorded.  In this episode John Saunders, the man who went from a humble machine shop apartment in New York City to a full fledged machine shop in Ohio, joins us and talks shop.  Some of the things we talk about include: <ul> <li>CNC machine tools of all sorts!</li> <li>CNC tooling</li> <li>April Fools day jokes</li> <li>SMW Johnny 5</li> <li>Telsas, Makerspaces and the future.</li> </ul> And much more!  You can listen to it here: <a href="https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/episode_018_NYCNC.mp3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/episode_018_NYCNC.mp3</a> or you can download it <a href="https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/episode_018_NYCNC.mp3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">directly</a>.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 18 – NYCNC

It’s been a long time since we have posted an episode and that has been my (Justin’s) fault.  I won’t go into the details but I wanted to let everyone know that the podcast will continue in the near future.  In the meantime I wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy 2019 home shop machinists style.  Stay tuned! You can listen to it directly here: https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/episode_017a_twas_the_night.mp3 or you can download it directly. ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, so I sneaked out like a mouse. The drill bits were placed in their index with care, In hopes that new tooling soon would be there. The machine tools were cleaned, and oiled in their place, While visions of a Moore jig borer brought a smile to my face. And while my family was inside and all snug in their beds, I was working to finish some Christmas gifts for them instead. When out in the shop there arose such a chatter, I sprang from my band saw to see what was the matter. Away to the lathe I flew like a flash, Hitting the big red stop, it ended with a crash. Some light on the now freshly wrecked homemade tool Meant no new gifts would be delivered this yule. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a Fiat Panda, and a very tall Stefan Gotteswinter. With a little old wrench used lively and quick, I knew in a moment he would show me his sharpening trick. More rapid than lightening I took out the workpiece, And I sharpened the tool to finish the gift for my niece. “Now Hardinge, now Wrong Fu, now Deckel, and Myford! On Linley, on Schaublin, on Monarch and Boxford, To the Deckel clone!, to the sharpening stone! No need to dress the CBN cone! And then, in a twinkling, I heard “this will not do” Stefan was examining my grinder through and through. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Out of the Panda came Stefan with Biax scraper inbound. He was soon covered in Canode from his head to his foot, His clothes were all blue and yellow, including his boots. The efficient German worked diligently through, To turn my Deckel clone into something much more true. A wink of his eye and a scrape by his hand, Soon gave me to know I would have nothing to dread. He spoke not a word, except for Youtube, And educated the masses so they were no longer noobs. Soon the Deckel was done, everything adjusted up right, Then Stefan Gotteswinter fled back into the night. And as he started off in his Panda to journey back home, He rolled down his window and gestured towards the Deckel clone. I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 17a – ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas

2 episodes in one month!  We can’t believe it either.  Don’t worry though we didn’t cut on quantity to get it out – this episode is still over 2 hours.  We won’t talk about the quality.  Max, Stefan and Justin give shop updates (it has been about 4 months since Stefan has been on – that’s long enough for Stefan to build an entire Saturn V rocket in his basement).  After that we talk about making money in the home $hop – when your hobby turns into a business.  And no we aren’t the Business of Machining Podcast.  In between the weirdness:   Stefan is busy making telescope parts for the Hubble Space telescope a local company requiring telescope parts. Stefan is on the lookout for a new lathe.  He would like a Hardinge HLV (don’t we all!). Justin and Max suggest looking at the Taiwanese clones like Cyclematic or Feeler Stefan broke down and bought a face mill with carbide inserts:  Lancaster Watch Tools: https://www.instagram.com/lancaster_watch_tools/ Max is working on a license plate holder for his AMG. Justin’s diamond dressers for the bench grinder are now for sale.  You can find them on this site. Stefan is the reason why small shapers and grinders now cost an arm and a leg and everyone wants one. We talk about turning your home shop into a business.  Over the past few years Stefan has done more and more work for clients. Keep it a hobby – you don’t want to destroy the fun in your life! Stefan does some work for this guy: https://www.instagram.com/stories/watchmaker.kl/ Justin is upset about all the Bang Good advertising on Youtube.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 17 – Home $hop Machini$t

After a one month hiatus due to a number of reasons (typical of home shop machining), Max and Justin are joined by the King of 16″ South Bend lathes: Tom Utley.  But nobody in the hobby calls him that.  He is King Tutley.  Tom, an engineer by day, is best know in this hobby for his time (over the last 3 years!) and dedication in taking a clapped out  second world war 16″ South Bend lathe and returning it to better than new condition.  Some of the interesting topics:  Tom talks about the bench grinders he has been working on that will soon be up for sale.  If you are interested in getting a properly restored Baldor bench grinder be sure to get in touch with Tom! We talk about paint.  Is 2 part epoxies worth the trouble for machine tools?  Previously a woodworker Tom has moved into the metal side of things.  The people are generally more friendly, albeit slightly less normal. Why don’t we encourage more to work with their hands?  All three of us share our frustrations with a general society that no longer values craft work.  Shop work is good for the soul! A well documented page on Tom’s journey: http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/south-bend-lathes/1943-south-bend-16-x-60-lathe-resurrection-299300/ Chemical Etching.  Tom has done a fantastic job with all the brass name and label plates on his South Bend: Photo resist etching.  More popular with watchmaking types, Max talks a bit about his journey into photo resist etching:  Variable Frequency drives.  Tom has put a great deal of effort into the VFD controls, enclosure, and wiring has installed on his lathe.  It is one of the best executed projects of such nature on the web:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opxVLWTiW7E Huanyang VFDs: a fine German made product? The Guillocheur Video: https://youtu.be/uN-zN8OLh_w Of course would the show be a show without mentioning Stefan?  And much more!  You can listen to it directly here: https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/episode_016_king_tutley.mp3 or you can download it directly.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 16 – King Tutley

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 14 – Phillipsed

Join Max and Justin as they discuss the amateur / home shop machinist hobby.  The show features practical topics, interesting guests, and just some general shop talk.

After over a one month hiatus, Max and Justin are back with episode 13!  Some of the things we talk about include:  Max has had limited time in the shop.  What does work always get in the way of what we want to do? Justin purchased a sub $200 USD digital read out from eBay.  He calls it the Shenzhen DRO.  And so far it has been pretty good. Justin’s new lathe – a Standard Modern 12×30 Utilathe.  It was terribly dirty. Which leads us into maintenance.  Why do so many people neglect equipment? Max goes into the wonderfully simple cone style plain bearings.  Keep it clean and adjusted! Bearing preload How do you keep track of all those oil points? The importance of way oil Chuck lube.  Let the debate begin.  Max and Justin like getting sprayed with oil apparently. A live stream episode with Stefan Gotteswinter and Robin Renzetti?  Let us know your thoughts!  All that and a few tangents (would it be a show without a few?)

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 10 – Practitioner of the Mechanical Arts

In this episode Max and Justin talk about finishing and both agree that they are terrible at actually finishing projects.  In fact, it is amazing that this podcast is still being recorded and not sitting on a shelf somewhere collecting dust waiting for completion.  It did actually sit for about a week until Justin managed to finish the editing!  In this episode:  Justin finishes his toolpost for the Schaublin 102 and now is onto making proprietary arbors for the tailstock.  Why do watchmaking lathes seem to always use proprietary tooling? (Max’s Rivett is no exception) Max made a quick and dirty ER11 collet holder for the Hagar mill.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHO_IefxoA8 Stefan Gotteswinter is mentioned numerous times. We talk about the cool planetary backgear setup on the tiny Craftsmen 109 lathe, its only redeeming feature.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 8 – G’Day Mate

In a first for us we manage to get an episode recorded, edited, and posted in about 2 weeks!  Don’t worry we didn’t skimp on the quantity of the recording – this episode is a long as the rest of them (note nothing was said about quality!). In this episode we talk about work holding and tool holding in general.  Apologies for our voices – we both were recovering from colds.  Highlights include:    Max gets his turret finished just in time for Emma’s tool making competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xe3ACUzET7Y Check out the pile of chips on the watchmaker’s lathe: Justin is inching (what is the metric equivalent?) towards getting the Schaublin 102 up and running. Someone opens a beverage.  Identify the time and send Justin an email: justin@thecogwheel.net  to claim your prize! Justin is recording in the middle of a terrible thunderstorm. 2 Jaw independent chuck?  We talk about one: Justin and Max are big fans of ER collets.  Maritool is a great source for production quality stuff at reasonable prices. Stefan Gotteswinter gets his mention. Use your 3D printer, or a 3D printing service to make soft jaws for your vise!  Or a fixture setup for your face plate. Clamping nuts – we don’t know what they are called but Max made up a set of them.  Identify them, send Justin and email justin@thecogwheel.net and claim your prize! Max thinks Justin should build some die holders with driving squares in them like these ones:    All that and much much more.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 7 – Work Holding

Despite our terrible bantering in episode 2, Stefan Gotteswinter decides to come back on.  Max and I think perhaps he might be suffering from poor judgement.  In the longest episode to date we talk about:  Stefan’s 1200 km drive to take Richard King’s scraping class and he lets us know some of what he has learned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO9GW0tAOIQ Push or pull scraping? Justin still can’t get over Stefan having Japanese power tools.  Isn’t there a law in Germany against this? We talk about Bosch We talk about machining titanium Max is busy working on his turret for Emma’s tool making competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_VHt6j_xtw We talk about bearings And there might be some beer talk.  Wrong podcast.  Again.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 6 – All Scraped Up

After getting confused as to what podcast they are recording, Max and Justin talk about hauling machine tools home.  Of course the stories keep getting better and more ostentatious the more they are told.  We also talk about:  Max’s work on his Trent Pinion mill Change gears on the lathe – you don’t need that 127 tooth to cut metric threads all the time.  Max finds a really well done gear calculator on the internet: http://geargenerator.com Justin gets a Delta Rockwell surface grinder for the home shop and tells the story about dragging it home in his father in law’s truck Max can’t be outdone: 7 Hjorths, an overloaded van, pouring rain and a flat tire Any other Hjorth owners out there?  Send us some info! High speed grinding attachments Decorating cakes perhaps using This Old Tony’s nice rotary table (Max’s wife probably isn’t interested though) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny5Xxwwpkxs We go through the now not so latest March / April 2017 Home Shop Machinist Magazine (our favorite magazine by far!)  http://www.homeshopmachinist.net/marchapril17/ Hazard Fraught Tools: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Hazard+Fraught+tools Brian Rupnow’s flathead engine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np2N5ZxtKu Motores Patelo Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/yesuswilder10/videos You don’t need to have great equipment to make great stuff Durabar Would it be an episode without mentioning Stefan?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsYMC0vcaBQ  You can listen to it directly here: https://thecogwheel.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/episode_005_cake_decorating_and_hauling_iron.mp3 or you can download it directly.

Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 5 – Cake Decorating and Hauling Iron

Max and Justin invite Dan Sherman on for some general shop talk.  We started talking about what is going on in the shop but in true home shop machinist fashion this episode heads off on several slightly off topic tangents.  Within this episode:  Welding and machining, is it a left brain right brain sort of thing? Justin gets a Schaublin 102 for the home shop! Max trams his mini mill with epoxy.  Would this be an episode without mentioning Stefan?  Tramming a mill with epoxy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7Qs-J2swIc Max’s pinion mill is coming along:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPUKtlsjPRA Dan is building camera mounts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RtZOJ7f2LE We all wonder what normal people do with all their time since they don’t fix anything and don’t spend all their free time in the shop.  We are really starting to sound like old farts. Bench grinder balancing with a cellphone?  Dan is interested and Justin has a shameless plug to his blog: https://thecogwheel.net/2016/07/06/bench-grinder-balancing-with-a-smart-phone/ The Davenport screw machine.  Yes, you can still buy one! http://davenportmachine.com/ Check out the documentary Moon Machines on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTu8nanTJo7GvulBxz9JT9JcXeXimM1Vr) and When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0085E40F4/ We also talk reel mowers, grass cutting, steel, surfers helping with the space program, the SR71 Blackbird, Koenigsegg and probably some stuff in between.
