Start your Wood Stove - Don't Buy Kindling - Visual Tutorial
zhlédnutí 327Před 4 lety
Hey Folks. This video is for general interest, and for those that need some perspective on wood stove operation. I know people that spend hundreds extra each year to keep kindling in stock, so they don't have to use an axe. Here i offer an alternative. If you are happy with your process then that is great. Cheers.

Thank you so much! I hadnt any clue about which knobs to use so I had them turned down all.. now I see how theyre connected, thanks a lot
It is very informative
Thanks Richard. I'm shopping for a tool post. I figured BXA was the size I needed. Nice to have a visual confirmation. I have a Standard-Modern Series 2000 11-20. I think it's the next generation newer, 11" version of your machine. Cheers!
I welded a half inch drive socket on the end of my spline gear and use a ratchet. when I dont want the ratchet I attach a breaker bar.
Richard, Awesome video! I am looking at making some press attachments to help me bend some small parts made out of .030 aluminum or even possibly 16g steel. This video helps!
Many years ago I bought a Dorian BXA for my Southbend 10L Heavy. It worked just fine. I bought the Dorian because I was familiar with them and liked the design. Their tool holders were also the first, as far as I could tell, to have a 3/4” height for the tool. They were using a higher quality alloy for the holders so were able to cut the bottom thinner. That made it easier to get to center height with a 5/8” tool. When I bought my current Southbend FOURTEEN, I moved it there. With that, I was able to use 3/4” tooling. A friend has a 15” LeBlond. He decided to get a CXA. I don’t see any real advantage for most people. The only one I know of is that he can buy the abundant used tooling in 1” size on eBay. The manufacturers are pretty accurate about the sizing for their tool posts. Aloris and Dorian give slightly different ranges, but it doesn’t matter. A definitely agree about buying a wedge post rather than a piston post. If you’re going to make heavy cuts, if your lathe allows it, or drill a big hole, the piston post can allow the holder to twist a bit, while the wedge holds it solidly along the entire length of the dovetails.
Thanks for the comments. Nice to see some practical feedback. Cheers.
Where are you located, and where did you find a used Standard-Modern lathe:? That's an old one; I used to work for them as a draftsman. Those things will last forever if you service and maintain them.
It was a Kijiji deal 15 years back. It was originally used in a vocational school. It is a great lathe. I am on the east coast, in Nova Scotia. Cheerrs
@@ChannelofRichPierik I'm currently in Michigan, but I lived in Clarckson, ON when I worked there. They were on Montcalm Ave. in Toronto. They've since moved to Mississauga, ON.west of Toronto
Very precise and very well done and professionally done job
Exactly what I needed to know. Thank you.
Never really had a use for an arbor press . I think you enlighten me on the possibility of different tooling to use.
Thank you Richard for a great explanation of the D1-x series. I am a beginning machinist (in my 60's) , and the Camlock world is now less of a mystery because of your clear explanation.
Fantastic info!
A BIG INFORMATION DROP FOR ME HUGE THANK YOU.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes! Thank you :) I need more videos like that!
Well explained! Thanks!
Piece parting a lathe back together to be Atlas 12"x54" regular ole machine. Having the slide compound from a 10" lathe, the BXA is perfect. That extra inch makes it all work.
You should start selling this as a kit!
Very nice. Thanks
I've this machine, and I use it also for leather. thanks for video.
Thanks for sharing your handy work, the socket adapters are nice! I'll make a set immediately, simple, yet effective!
Thank you for all the examples and ideas for tooling for an Arbor press, I'm presently updating mine to tap into the potential for many more projects. The felt lathe way wipers idea is win for sure! :)
Richard, do you make parts to fit a 1/2 ton arbor press?
Hi Rich. Have a look at my other videos. There is one there for arbor press tooling. Cheers.
Great ideas. Unfortunately I don’t have a metal lathe. I wonder if I could use my wood lathe to do some of the milling. I guess the only way to know is to give it a try.
no and good luck
Thanks
What a great video! I wish I had a lathe, so I could mill something like this myself. I have a cheap Harbor Freight 20 ton press, I've made a few helpful modifications to, but really need some kind of dies to attach to the ram. My grandfather was a machinist, and passed in 2020, and I think of him any time I'm working with metal. Thanks for the helpful videos, stay safe, and keep it up!
Very nice work,great video!👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent video. Great ideas!
Great Video! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks, very helpful.
I dont understand , do i need a laptop with software to run this or is it built in sounds that need to PC?
It is an instrument that stands alone if you wish. You can also attach a controlling music keyboard and if you wish, and you may control if by "midi" from other sources including a computer. Good luck.
Hi Richard, thank you for this great video. Could you share the model name of the Midi cable that has this iPad/PC toggle?
Here it is. Cheers www.roland.com/ca/products/um-one_mk2/
@@ChannelofRichPierik thank you so much!
You really didn't need to shorten the spindle. The drawtube does not need to thread all the way into the 5C collet. Just needed to place the crank flush with the end of the drawtube, then tighten the setscrews firmly to lock it in place.
Does anyone know how to add reverb to this keyboard? I just got it and i don’t really know how it works.
This is a great keyboard. I have been using it for over 20 years now. It still works fine today..
maybe a plastic rod to grease fill bearings in blind holes to pop them out?
What is the meaning of the item numbers... 250-201, 250-222, etc.?
Here is a reference chart. accusizecatalog.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com/P25.pdf
Cheers! Some excellent ideas well presented!
Thanks for sharing very illusrative
How did the socks hold up?
Thanks for the smile!
@ChannelofRichPierik Lol It was a trick question anyways, I know they're great... HAHA
Sell it as a kit and send me the link. I need them
Can you send midi out to synths?
I have not done it but I think it is done for class compliant devices with a USB interface. czcams.com/video/QUiCSbqSC0s/video.html
Great video sir 👍🏻
Thanks!
Everyone needs to be friends with each other like you’re being.
im desiring my own shop press, for a unique use
to try turning soda cans into paper😁
Thanks, that stopped my frustration from building
Great video! What did you use for the longer handle. What was the length and OD? Method?
Thanks! I used 1018 cold rolled. It is 5/8 inch. I keep a bunch of 1018 in different dimesnions in my shop. It is cheap and also welds easy. Cheers.
@@ChannelofRichPierik Thank You. What length did you use? Your Mods to the Arbor Press were very useful.
@@elizabethrogers6897 double the original. Cheers.
Keep making arbor press videos b/c there are not a lot of them out there. And, this one has been the best that I've seen.
Thanks David. I appreciate the comment and watching the video. Cheers.
Thanks. Something to consider when I’m designing my radius jig for my 6x48. I’m targeting a long fretboard as opposed to your 1/2” end grain
Very good. See section at 2 minutes in... Cheers.
Thanks!
