LATHE TOOL BIT GRINDING #4 South Bend Clausing logan

[ohhhhshag]

just stumbled upon this series and i can tell ya ill be watching every one of them!, learning mechanical engineering in university and this is far superior to reading about things in a book.

well done from ireland!

Tubalcain,

Once ground what is the proper position for the bit in the tool holder. I know the point should be on center, but at what type of angle should the bit be mounted with respect to the work?

[willysnowman]

Thanks for the info. I learned this a while ago and could not remember how to do it. This is a much better learning method than a book!

the still shots at the end are really clear. A picture paints a thousand words. thank you.

[harleyghost]

Your a great teacher, I also liked your teaching aid and the idea of practicing using key stock. Thank you.

Sorry for the double post I'm a newbie.

I have just viewed the four video's of lathe tool grinding. This is just what I have been looking for in how to video's. I will be looking at all you videos for sure. Thank you for helping a ole guy learn new things. Dennis Schoessow

Why is the first face ground so long? It seems as if we could take off a lot less metal. We'd have to compensate by adjusting our 2nd face to match... We are cutting with just the tip of the tool, yes?

You are grea!. Thank you. I use my SB 9" sparingly only when I have a project so it's like relearning every time. Lot's of reading and websearching and frustrating. Nice to have an organized visual smart tutorial by a smart man.

Thank you for the videos I am looking forward to more

Hello,

Thank you very much for this video! As they say.....a picture says more then a 1000 words! Especially for a guy hows native language is not English.

Thank you.

In this case you were using a long piece of stock, but how do you hold the cutters wich are much shorter. DO you hold them in your hand or do you hold them in a fixture of some kind?

[mrpete222]

Choke up on them and hold them by hand. Or you can hold them in a straight Armstrong lathe tool holder.

Hey Tubal Cain. thanks for showing this. It helps out guys like myself who are new to the lathe. I appreciated your taking time to make this video!

[jfco61]

another great video

[dperfetti1]

Great video!

[whotoinfinity]

Thank you

[johnslaby]

Thank You. You explained this better than any book. All angles covered and why those angles are important w/o any fluff!! JCS

[AkGrayWolf]

Great job, thank you for your time and knowledge. I sure would like to see you make one on how to sharpen drill bits. The bit sharpening videos I have see so far don't teach anything and only show that some guys can throw sparks.

[cdbflynow]

Most useful, thanks. As always, your approach and preparation greatly add to raw information content. This video is a good example of the effectiveness of video instruction on the internet. It is hard to get equivalent information from a book.

Your video quality is quite good - what kind of camera do you use?

[mrpete222]

Thanks--its a FUJI S1000. Would like to get a high def.

[silver760]

It's good you teach this TC,the like of you and I who make/made all our own tooling,people today are all relying on TCT pre formed tools or tip tools,I can see the the skill of making your own cutting tools being lost,if not kept alive.
