Thanks! I learned this in 7th grade metal shop, and haven't used it since.... so when I got my Atlas lathe I was in need of this info. Nice job, you are a great teacher!

Hi Tubalcain

I love your work. Thanks so much for the help. I am just beginning and find your videos extremely helpful.

Can you do a video on setting up the lathe (i have a small hobby lathe) to do some basic tasks like skimming the side of some bar, parting off etc with a focus on tool setup.

kind regards

max

Would you address radius sizes? I find that I have a tendency to grind mine too small and the finish isn't very fine, but too large and the lathe chatters.

These videos are awesome!!! The large models are fantastic to see what needs to be done!

After watching the 1st vid i had a go and it works well. I usually use indexable inserts so most of this is pretty alien to me. But you just carn't make a custom grind we out using hss tool steel. Thanks for your wisdom. Is this the same Tubal Cain who has written in 'model engineer' magazine.

Thanks. The tubalcain that wrote the books is from England.

[OlliKochi]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

[AkGrayWolf]

Thank you. Now that I know why the angles need to be what they are, maybe I can remember how to do it.

I'll bet most viewers fail to recognize the significance of the name "Tubal-cain".

Excellent choice of name.

Your videos are the most useful metalworking videos I have seen. Thank you for taking the time to make them.

[mrpete222]

That's true, only about 1%.

Thanks MrPete,

Better than a book. Do you realize that you are now the "old machinist" that's teaching us? :-)

MrPete// If there is one thing I haven't seen anybody cover its what RPM is good for each metal.. say steel, cast steel, aluminum, brass.. People can't tell in videos just how fast an object is spinning on a Lathe and they think it has to go incredibly fast to do anything with the tool... Sounds like a Video?!?!?

[mrpete222]

Thanks--yes-will do one in the future.

[berkelusa]

Great tools.. But they won't fit in my SouthBend.. lol - loved the wood demo tool shapes and great info.. A+ -Rob
