Registrace 27. 03. 2011
I'm Keith Fenner and this is my Job Shop. Join me as I perform old school repair jobs by drilling, milling, grinding, welding, plasma cutting, broaching and metalworking on a lathe. At Turn Wright Machine Works, we walk the talk and getter done!
After school, I started my career in naval ship repair as an outside machinist working as a civilian contractor at the helper level. 13.5 years later I had worked on almost every navy vessel in San Diego's harbor, 32nd Street, North Island and Point Loma. I added the classification of an inside machinist to my cap, and the capability of holding any personnel level in the work force.
After that I worked for two small companies that I helped to grow. In return, I gained my welding and shafting experience, before eventually taking a leave of absence to start my own business in 1994 - Turn Wright Machine Works - homesteading my talents here on Cape Cod.

Tinning Shell for Babbitt Pour
Tinning the shell of a Babbitt bearing is not always a must, but when it is called for you will have to do just that. I share my process on tinning a cast iron shell that uses a thin thickness of Babbitt as the bearing. Just like the 5-inch bearing we re-poured last week this 6-inch bearing is for a marine shaft. One other difference between sizes is this run in an oil bath versus the other being a grease lubrication.

Stick Out And No Support

Sometimes the projects you have to set up in the lathe have a lot of sticking out and sometimes you can’t support the load and you have to let it hang out there to do the work.

Why are you not uploading videos Keith ?
Eu apliquei muito babbit em mancais de bronze em formato bi-partido,os mancais eram aquecidos e aplicavamos uma camada de estanho,logo em seguida aplicavamos camadas de babbit usando o maçarico oxi-acetileno e varetas que fazíamos na cantoneira. Depois de frio usinava a parte de fechamento e tornava o diâmetro interno. O babbit que o patrão comprava era usado e tinha impurezas que fazia ter que antes de colocar a medida final tinha que remover com fresa esférica e fazer enchimento até que nao restasse mais impurezas.
Babbit nao pode usar lixa.
Brazing Arizona. Thanks for the vid, nice work!
So keith fenner where have you been ???? You quit youtube???
keep up the good work
👍 More. Thanks Keith.
I have that same kiln for lampworking with glass but it has a different controller
are you not uploading here anymore??😾
Hope things are OK. 🙂
Yes they are, just real busy and building up a 30 in 30 days run of videos.
@@KeithFenner Alright!!! 🙂👍
Love this kind of content🙂
😂 I have forgotten about this video so long ago! I'll take it as an example to be as real as ever all the time!
Kieth, You rock. Just Say'in
Hello sir nice video. Does it really cut wood like that say with a 6watt laser.
The higher the watts the thickness of capabilities increase
34 counts guilty! He's trash. I used to watch your videos, then I saw the criminals mugshot on your wall. Lost respect, moving on...
Keep it rolling, Keith. 👍🏻
Poopooing China for 43 minutes, then... Oh no, the good "American made" tap shattered!
Cool it hes just answering a quick question.......🫠

Sorry. Anymore CZcams shorts and I'm unsubbing
just unsub.

THAT oughta break his heart, for sure...
I don't like 'youtube shorts' but I like this one ;-)
Hello In your opinion, how can we do the adhesion of Babbitt material on MO40 material with high quality. We use special tin plating for this type of tin plating operation. How do you do this? can you explain?
I have a new video on tinning.

would it not be prudent to actually torque the bolts, and in a star pattern for even clamping? great video I enjoyed it
I'd love to see more on CZcams, Keith.

SORRY FOR THE NAME BEING SPELT WRONG KEITH. WORD BLIND. MY BAD
I LOVE THAT DASTARDLY LAUGH YOU HAVE KEATH . LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HOW GOOD THAT LATH CAN DO ON TOLERANCE. MAY BE 3 MICRONS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK IS THE BEST YOU CAN GET OUT OF HER .

😳😮😭OOOOPSEY ! What not to do ? Thanks
Hi Keith What are the advantages of the tool post grinder to just cleaning up the part with the lathe.
The hardness
Thanks for the videos Keith. Definitely continue with the babbit pour, your a wealth of information, these are really great and informative!
Great save with the 2 half taps!! would you ever consider making something like this from a material like delrin? of course it would be a consumable product. But then you could probably make 3 in the time it would take you to make one from cast iron, and the odds of breaking a tap would be almost zero. The thought of tapping an acme thread that size with a hand tap gives me goosebumps. Great video, thoroughly enjoyed!!
I thought I watched all the videos but I only remember 2 on the babbits?
As usual great video, thanks
the Harris Stay Clean flux does a very good job for tinning ferrous metals, I used it for solder many parts that have been saved that way As you say, cleaniness is of a prime importance when soldering about any materials. very good teacher excellent video
Is this for sale?
Keith, I'm writing to see if you'd be willing to do less of the attempted indoctrination; regarding the pledge of allegiance to the flag and the right wing turn your channel has taken. I've been watching you since the beginning of turn wright machine works. You have been an amazing resource for learning more about turning, welding, brazing, and the general properties of steel(straightening shafts, tempering, etc.), how things work, what tolerances are important, and strategies to be efficient in the shop. I work at a construction company and get enough right wing propaganda while I'm on the clock, if it would be possible to enjoy an educational program at home, I would sincerely appreciate it.
I like your work buddies already!
@@KeithFenner I previously had a positive response, but can't let that stay. The right wing rhetoric is why my husband has been threatened by my coworkers because we're a gay couple. This BS right wing propaganda is why they think it's OK to threaten to smash beer bottles over his head.
Хорошая работа.👍 Конечно, таких диаметров вкладышей заливать не пришлось. Но Ф60мм, то да. Не знаю, мы или бедные, или нищие. Но намного всё проще. Шаблон с картона, лудили паяльником, на паяльной лампе. Потом напильник и шабер. А, ну да, еще помню, если диаметр позволяет, то шабрили поршневыми кольцами Б/У. Пополам переломил и вперед.👍
Awesome there is all kinds of ways good talented workers can get it done! Cheers, Keith
лайк.
I do enjoy watching a good pour, maybe have a babbit championship event sometime. Keith and Keith. What about a high temperature o-ring dam
I would really like to see the pour.
Keith please continue, I am working on learning how to pour babbitt in some of my antique tractor engines. It is helping.
I live in Germany, I work in IT, I own a mini lathe and I'm about to build a shapeoko CNC. My interest in machining came from watching people like you, abom, mr crispin, clickspring etc. Among the ones I listed, I love watching your videos the most, even tho I never met you, maybe never will, you enthrall me the most, you have a special Aura which I really like. Keep on rocking Mr. Fenner.
Interesting stuff
Thanks for the video. As a retired MR1 we did a lot of bearings. The biggest was a main line shaft bearing for USS Detroit. Inside diameter of 48 inches, plus .002 minus 0. We got it done on a 50 year old ship at sea (anchored) during Desert Storm. It was a steel shell with grooves. The faces were hand scraped for flatness, then bored on a HBM. I haven't seen all of your videos yet, but I haven't seen you "peening" the babbit. The moulders would do this to see if the babitt would release from the shell before machining. Do you do it also?
Your talents extend far beyond a machinist. I wish you had of worked in the industry that I worked in, I would have gotten a lot more sleep.
I like it Mr Fenner!
I just watched all 6 parts. It was a pleasure to see a K&T etc. being run well. I started machining in the 1960s.
Keep up the great content Keith
A Last Word Indicator would work well.
