Nice job !!

Music👎

Welding that zinc plated steel is a recipe for getting sick.

I really love the effort 👍👍

To clarify for everyone. I bought this lathe new from Wabeco and it came with a knurled bearing seat from factory. It's also not just my lathe I have seen another video where someone replaces their lathe spindle with a camlock version and I can see that spindle also had a knurled seat.

Waaaait... a KNURLED BEARING SEAT? Seriously??

Seems a recent thing. My 40 y/o wabeco 2400 does not have this knurling

You say to put a relief between all of the cutting edges, just curious why its necessary, is it a limitation of the D bit grinder? And do you know how the professionals would be able to achieve it?

Thank you for the superb video, I learnt everything from you, and it took me 7 months to pick the courage to start since all those angles were too much for me. You have cleared the fog .

I know this is an old post but how would I obtain the drawings mentioned. Thank you.

What Grit diamond wheel are you using?

8 hours?

Hi mate. Can you provide a link to the CZcams channel you mentioned. I think the name sounded like “Look”?? Regards Robert

My grinder was a paper weight until your video guide. Thank you!

Hey dear.Three years now.I hope you are doing very well.Best video of this sort.Thank you.

As already written here, very informative video. I can sharpen drill bits by hand, but it's more accurate with a machine. Thanks for the video.

Is that frame galvanized?

Could you press the bearing race in using the tailstock ram ?

Nice work I need about 12 of these for the stand I'm building to support my two hundred gallon fish tank.

10:20 Off topic but I love nature. Man is intently demonstrating knowledge. Man's dog barks; alerting the pack to a potential threat. Man stops demonstration, evaluates the threat, determines risk low, and continues demonstration. All this in less than a second. Beautiful.

*3 REQUESTS:* Make a video showing the table's flatness (testing w shims)..? Always show the complete machining of parts (use time lapse if necessary). Should've ran the parts on a surface grinder to perfection afterwards.

I've always wanted to see a universal cutter/grinder in operation. Interesting. I use a Darex which has a air bearing spindle for sharpening the flutes. Both machines pretty much do the same thing.

Hello Projects Down Under. I haven't watched your other videos yet and the answer might be there, but could I ask, are you the original owner of this lathe? Can we be sure the knurling on the spindle was done at the factory and with the knowledge of Wabeco's management? I noted in one of your replies to a comment that you've seen this knurling on another Wabeco spindle, which is quite telling but still not conclusive. I'd really like to get to the bottom of this. @devinmoodley4061 wrote in a comment that he asked Wabeco for clarification on this. Was there an answer you can share Devin? Regards, Rick.

A video with a project that didn't turn out to work as perfectly as expected is worth 10 videos that claim to have worked perfectly. I appreciate your video!

Did not understand a thing but loved the skill and art of doing something like what is shown in the videa.

10 seconds of that voice was enough for me.

HI do you sell an 1-11/16 X 1/2 SHANK or 3/4 SHANK. Or ware can i purchase that size

Super bro #luckytoolroomskills

I would say this table costed a lot more than 2 grand, if you include the cost of your one month of labor

Excellent Work Friend! 💪🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hi, I see this is an old video & I'm sure you've realised by now but you've misunderstood Luc's explanation. The measurement you quote as 2.4 to 3 times the drill size is to what Luc calls the "cone intersect". The cone being the 12mm pin that goes in the collet (his not so good English) & is way different from the distance between the drill tip and the fixture, & depends on a few factors. Luc produced a .pdf of Excel tables for this which are available on a link on his video.

Wonderful attention to detail making a potentially complex process simple to understand - thank you

Thanks for sharing - very useful thank you

Wow, what an excellent job!

This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble czcams.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!

Unnecessary amount of precision detailing for a gd welding table.

I would be really worried if I was dreaming about welding tables.

put two bridge port next to each other for long pieces

Brilliant! Thank you!

I think maybe you should remove "precision " from the title purely because this isn't a precision build ,it's a "welding" table . If you can lay your hands on a large precision straight edge you'll know what I'm getting at . Way to many clickbait titles on YT nowadays. Look up Fireball tools and look for his precision table build ,"that's a precision table".

How is the repair holding up? I would have been tempted to Lock-Tight the bearing in place but would make future servicing more difficult.

Very impressive!! Did you make the custom cutter for sharpening the sides of the flutes or was that item purchased somewhere? I don't think that is standard equipment when one buys a D-Bit grinder is it? Thanks for the lesson!

I suspect these springs are actually do more work than needed. They stabilaze it so much it reduces the power transferred to the vessel.

what weight?

Very nice finished job but realistically very few people have access to the gear you used to make your "$2500" table. It's that sort of access that make this size and complexity possible. Watched it all as I like watching functional objects come together from raw materials under a pros hands. I would have appreciated watching the process of leveling the table. Experts know how hard it is to get a level, square table down to small fractions of a millimetre - almost a dream. Nice work and as a fellow Down Underzen I am surprised you haven't had more views.

The video was good but the useless debilitating music is a freaking nightmare, on top of the rain, the hammer pecking and your voice.... So, scrap the music and you will get more views and more thumbs up. Thanks.

it's amazing work .... ciao

Now thats a table..Nice job.
