I love this channel. I miss the Antikithera series. So much.

Can't wait until you're done with your paper. It'll be good to get an update on the antikythera mechanism

The precision involved in this work is amazing!

You turned your lathe into a shaper. Abom79 would be proud.

I recently did the same task. I just used what I had on hand with out making anything custom and it worked but your bit is much stronger. I was running at any angle as well to start with but was getting to much flex so I just when straight on and that helped with a flexyer bit.

Thisused to be one of my most favoutite channels, back in the days when it had vocals. Now I only occasionally check it out with hopes of hearing a human voice.

Beautiful chips! Right up on par with Abom79's shaper chips!!

Chris is what happens when a da vinci level intellect goes into fabrication. A touch of art, a touch of heart, and skills that make professionals jealous.

Now I just wonder if Chris lost his voice. Sad day for me. Miss you, Chris, mate.

Had a gearbox go out that had a spur gear cut into the 1 1/2" shaft. The new gearbox had a 7/8" shaft with a key way. So I had to cut the old shaft/gear off the old box, and bore a 7/8" hole in it to slide onto the new shaft. However the root diameter of the gear was right at 7/8" so I had to stop the bore before the gear. Then I had to cut a key way into the blind hole, so it was impossible to use a conventional key way broach. I used this technique with my Shop Task. I was surprised that it was able to cut the groove all the way to the back of the blind hole. Time consuming, but it worked!

What locks the spindle in place? My lathe doesn't have one, so I made a pawl that engages one of the drive gears.
