Indeed nice video, I see that on the return it still takes a bit of aluminium off, I got that same problem with my taig, not sure why that is happening.

Tanks for sharing Your video

Removing material on the back cut.... this is also mysterious to me. I have read a few things online about it, but no real reason why. Everyone recommends backing off the tool before returning. I am sure it has something to do with the cutting angle and how the cutting edge "feeds" into the material. Let me know if you figure it out.

Wow, nice vid.

Thanks for sharing

Thank you for your kind words. I have watched most of your videos on Youtube and learned a lot from you. I am serious when I say that it is your videos that finally encourged me to by my first Sherline. I am still learning and loving my machine....Thank you!

Cute Congo African Grey! I've got one in the shop, too. A necessary accessory. :)

@Setharoo2 ever figure the material removal on the backcut problem? i think i see what causes it.

@Setharoo2 Hello All you SHERLINE USERS! PLEASE HELP ME! I have a 4400 Sherline lathe and was wondering if any of you smart folks out there could tell me what kind of chuck to use to turn or lathe an aluminum dowel 1 and 1/2 inches in diameter by 8 inches! My 1030 Chucks screws hit the plate and I cannot do any lathing on a 1 and one half inch dowel! I am a 1st time owner and green! Sherline Inc has not responded to my e mail! PLEASE HELP ME! GIVE ME ADVICE! THANKS! Adam 6:48 p.m.

The reason the lathe turns some materil off on the return cut is because the bar gets deflected away from the tool during the main cut. The bar and it could be in the chuck or it could have a centre in it, will deflect away from the tool. When you do a "return cut" as it is called, it takes the excess materiel off.

This is a great video. Could you please give me more information on the power feed motor you are using. make,model any numbers etc. Thx. Ron strtcop

Very nice video (and I did learn a few things, poor me.)

I have a power feed on my 4400 lathe. Can I make it reversible too? Great vid!

@Botwire - even with very light cuts on short material it still does that

[Botwire]

@happymark1805 as the material rotates down into the cutting bit, it deflects away which is normal. Because of the long length of the material there is more deflection. A steady rest or follow rest would help reduce this deflection. Lighter cuts would also reduce the deflection although it would not eliminate it.

[lexichronicle2]

@Setharoo2 that may be tool deflection. these are nice machines, but it'll happen even on big ones that cost hundreds of thousands. the tool inevitably bends a tiny bit on the roughing out cuts. then a final pass with next to no tool load polishes the dimensions. with these being so small, what seems like a light cut may still need a finishing pass. but I LOVE the video, and ms parrot rapping on your cans :D
