    I used to work for Rocketdyne in the 60’s where we made the attitude control thrusters 25, 75, and 100 pounders. We made them out Ablative material with a Graphit throat. In those days we used tracer lathes. Those were the days.

    As a machinist i appreciate your machine struggles. Good looking work, I've made worse looking nozzles with nicer machines!

    If graphite dust is abrasive, why does graphite grease exist?

    Using machine tools outside must feel like one of those showers out in the middle of the desert. Total freedom.

    Buy a larger lathe, your time is valuable, you won't regret the upgrade. A Shars style quick change tool post is well worth the additional cost.

    how does graphite manage to be abrasive and a lubricant?

    Love this format, shorter but more videos. Keeping in the errors is really a great way to teach too. Keep up the excellent work.

    Joe, your work and videos are great! Keep it up and I can’t wait for the next one! When you had the lathe outside I imagined what was being said at neighbor’s house, “ I’m bored. I think I’ll look out the window and see what Joe is up to and what kind of costume he’s wearing today”.

    Nicely done! While "ring of bolts" is popular among amateur motor makers, I always preferred internal snap rings. Might not work in your case, though. Also, I think I've mentioned before that using a

    im not asking to turn this channel into a machining channel, but can you show more machining? its very entertaining to see you machine parts outside in the nice weather. awesome video.

    Great video. I worked in a graphite shop for 16 years turning graphite on both CNC and manual lathes. And NEVER once wore a respirator or even a dust mask. I'm 62 now with no respiratory problems at all and all the dozen or so guys I worked with have had no problems. Not saying it was smart (definitely not smart) an ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure. I so enjoyed the video this is great tv please keep it up.
