I;ve gone for a Drummond lathe which Myford took over for war production around 1940 & called it the ML4 it is smaller & lighter than the ML7 which is a bonus as I can [with some parts removed] pick it up & move it on my own, it will do all I need of it & when I built a 5" simplex I made tools jigs as I went as special parts tooling were not available, I did have a Raglan Little John at first I never needed the larger capacity & it took 3 men [again parts removed ] to move it

Like your videos,I did not know that you can use a lathe as a mill. I will not too technical work with my lathe.

Sounds dry, use steam oil

Hello William, I like your lathe, one can manufacture lots of parts on it, all the complaints you mentioned shouldn't have been raised, I own a Hercus 9-inch lathe with tapered roller bearings, I purchased it brand new in 1973 and I still have it as of august 2024. now a days one can buy third party accessories on eBay for hobby lathes at reasonable prices for example taper turning attachment that mounts in the tail stock, plus a ball turning attachment, there are many other attachments. As a note a good machinist never blames his tools.😃

Опять наебали. А все лежал ждал когда это говно само поедет. 🤮🤮🤮

This is a very good introduction to the topic. Now, if you could see your way clear to making a video on how to make a Myford collet that would be doing humanity a service and would provide yourself with an additional collet - which I am sure you need.

😡🤷

Where can I buy one?😅

A Don Young 'Elaine' I think.

😒

When you get it done if you ever do that's a good-looking engine

Super Drehmaschine bin auch am überlegen ob ich mir so eine mir eine kaufe

Great video. I really like the oilers. I have all the upgrades you mentioned except for the tool post. I've had my 1952 ML7 for 17 years and have used the original "boat type" and four-way tool post for many years. I fabricated a QCTP from scratch, about 3 years ago, using plans from the internet. I would never go back to the four-way post, but we all have our own opinions.

Cool! A finger powered steam engine!

Someone needs to read up on definition of words....

Try putting steam into it ,it doesnt work 😮

10 volt steam engine?

That sounds dry!

Please give it oil

How exciting, an unfinished model steam engine 🙄

Very good info. Thanks for sharing.

E eu aqui esperando o motor funcionar

да он до сих пор крутит...

One thing is u gotta have steam going to it i dont see that

Might b turning it in the wrong direction

I'm getting into 2mm finescale because I don't love the performance of N-gauge streamline points and trackwork. Hoping the smaller gaps will make a difference!

Good video

No Go ,?!??😢

Hi William, I do hope you didnt move the table 1 1/4" I think the drawing says 1 1/8" i did that and made the throw too big. enjoying your vids, they are inspiring me to get my finger out and finish fitting new boiler to my current maid. Then get on with another I stripped to paint so long ago, I am going have fun finding all the nuts and bolts

just found your channel and even though I have a running Maid I also have a couple of part built ones that i need to get on and finish, so finding your channel a little inspiring. Nigel

Question ... WTF do you have one then ..?

Valve gear might help, together with a little steam.

Nice paper weight.

Presumably you are not sponsered by myford😕

RUBBISH

Glad to hear all is O/k with you and the Expanding Family, congratulations, Enjoy

Congratulations. I am very pleased everything is good

Congratulations

Didn’t play with dolls as a child, but having a newborn felt like I was playing with one. I was told newborns are chick magnets. Only true if your trying to attract old widows or girls half the age of consent Hopefully both yours are healthy

Hi William Glad to hear you and the family are well. I look forward to your ‘return’ in due course. 👏👏👍😀

Congratulations to the new family members!

Ah, a second child. That's fantastic news.

Best wishes to you and your growing family.

Good to see you back

Seems like the arbour is turning the wrong direction so it’s undoing the nut. Maybe reverse it? But then you are climb cutting, so maybe come at the workpiece from the other direction?

Can’t wait to see it runing, I just found your channel and it’s amazing
