  • whats the name of that lathe? einhell ? pls tell me

  • what i cant believe

  • There's this liquid, and basically it's called coolant......

  • why is it

  • The lathe is fine. I was just working on it last night mxking a part for my Dillon press.

  • does the lathe still work ok to this day ?

  • more cutting fluid less feed and less DOC

  • fast speed slow movement with aluminium for best finish. dude u suck

  • 2 high speed,

  • Do me and anyone else standing behind the lathe a favor.

    Put the chuck key somewhere else. It doesn't belong on the top of the machine where it can fall into the rotating chuck.

  • chewing through that a bit ay?

  • Great way to ruin a small lathe.

  • This says mini lathe? My mini lathe sets on a table I would love to have THIS Kind of MINI LATHE COOL 5 FOR VIDEO AND LATHE Joseph T (fly2000jtb)

  • when you hog to much metal at once it will slow the machine down , also going at to deep at once will screw up the metal expecialy in this case as no coolent is used, shows me that this guy is a wanna be machiest and also dont care about his life wareing a long sleeve shirt very reckless indeed,if he worked for me he would be fired very quickly..

  • ui uiui, hahahaha thats crazy... good demonstration.. but not to try it self hahaha

  • o h man , better dont stand with loose shirt close to the spindel. I had bad expierence when loose sleave on wood lathe. Thanks God nothing bad happened except I got ripped sleve and minor scar.

  • Looked like he turned the spindle speed down while in the cut with his left hand. Thats why the machine seemed to slow down so much. The spindle speed did not rise when the cut was complete. The material broke a chip like 12L14 steel (free machining). 1018 cold finish would not ack like that. I don't see any harm taking a cut like that with the material hes useing.

  • All, I did this only because some think it can't be done. There was a discussion going on at the time on a BB where some were saying you could not take more than .010" cuts with these lathes. I do not take cuts like that when making actual work. This was just a demonstration of what a small power lathe can do when the setup is rigid, the tool geometry is right and the speeds and feeds are set properly.

    I was turning down the speed as the cut went full depth to reduce chatter.

  • fuck....what are you doing? xD You killing this lathe...

  • I have been using lathes for over 30 years now and still have my first one! Given to me when I was 15 a tiny unimat sl since then I have owned many others and never hurt any of them, and even on occasion taken cuts as deep as this, It would appear to be cutting cleanly, without discoloration to ether the swarf, the cutter or the work, Ok it sounds rough, but thats because it has a poor Chinese gear train not because the machine is being tortured, do tell why you think this will damage the tool.

  • Ouch, poor lathe. What a vicious cut. Bad for the bearings on the lathe, auto feed. Not to mention killing the cutter. Not sure this demonstration was worthwhile.

  • There goes a nice peice of metal...

  • that fuck's the cutting tool

  • I'm still learning... what's he doing so wrong?

    Too much material too fast?

    Not enough lube?

  • You won't be able to do that very many times. It is like drag racing a Yugo. Won't last long.

  • can you Thread cutting with this lathe

  • Got the same lathe. Good machine. Why waste metal like this? Not a good way to run the lathe

  • Like a knife through butter! You must had done a good job tuning up that machine before doing that.

  • Taking the Sieg 7x12 to the max. I'm taking 1/4 depth of cut off a 5/8 1018 cr rod at the end of the cut.

    Homemade QCTP, 5/16 HSS bit. The lathe is a stock Cummins 7x12.

    Note: This is a stunt. I wouldn't expect the power electronics to tolerate this for very long!
