So many people sit here and don't even really watch closely......they just assume is wobbles....If you look closely the camera is constantly trying to focus on the rotating block......It is NOT the machine or block itself wobbling, but just the camera constantly refocusing.

your lathe is very good, the lathes at my school are very horrible, you can't get anything perfect with them, but yea they are still good for their age (40-50 years old)

hi i'am just wondering once the cylinder has been rebored where do you get the new piston from to fit it, thanks.

this video was really boring. think about that one

Hi. You remind me my job. It was nearly 8 years ago. It was exactly the same what you do. The same equipment. But, I left 0,07-0,09 mm for the honing. All this process from boring to honing takes 15-35 min. Nice job, but boring for me.
To theyellow240z. All cylinders are centered before boring process.

A boring job!

Hey John, do you center the cylinders before you take the cuts?!

@Mrpsychotehpyro not that comes to mind, but he couldve put the other 2 jug bolts in the jug, torqued them down to engine spec and maybe wrap a large wet cloth around the cyl to help with the chatter

Nice!
when doing that, do you torque them down to engine spec on the jig? and im assuming this isnt your first time, but i noticed you didnt put the other 2 jug bolts in, does it make any real difference? Just curious thanks

@Ryknfjor - I get them within .-10" to .015" and then clamp them.

Why is the Lathe 'back-to-front'?

@phranklyn - Its easier to see the cut on the back side...

When the cylinders are honed I put them in my torque plates. I leave about 0,25mm (.010") for finish honing. This is easier then with my KwikWay boring bar, it's too large and cumbersom to bore these cylinders, at the end of the day we both get the same results.
