- Can you turn a 100 year old milling machine to a useful CNC mill? Let's find out!
My dad bought this machine from a junkyard in the 60s. It's probably around 100 years old by now. I wanted a CNC machine, but buying one was lame, so i figured i'd convert this mill. This project took some time, but i had to finish it since I need it for my work. I like the mix between the old cast iron frame and the modern stepper motors.
Whats with the rap music? Well, the youtube audio library has a ton of bad music to choose from. But i found one great artist called NEFFEX who has made his music free to use. The playlist is as follows:
No filter - NEFFEX
Tough - NEFFEX
Go Down Swinging - NEFFEX
it's only woth it if you work for it - NEFFEX
No turning back - NEFFEX
Enough - NEFFEX
Back to the future - Ofshane

You are quite the engineer... for a scientist :)
That's pretty neat.
Very cool
"My ancestors smiling at me from the sk... oh wait, I'm not on the sky yet"
Although not. Restoration but a conversion and mod, the end result is awesome and proves it’s cheaper when you know how to do it, comparatively.
For a scientist you’re an awesome machinist.
Very cool.
Incredible work and video…
Very Nice!!! Thanks for the video
Do you know the reason why they deleted the Campbell video? Feel bad for you, that was brilliantly made.
medical misinformation. It can be found here: odysee.com/@RogueScientist:c
@@Rogue-Scientist Thanks bra. Did it hit over 300k? Kinda amazing it hit the rounds so fast. Wouldn't really expect those numbers for something so.. you know.
very cool
Thanks :)
great job
My partner was watching your video while I was rocking away to the music. Great work 👏🏽 👍 awesome play list 😊
Awesome! Thank you!
That's great man🔥👏👏👏👏
Thanks 🔥
Great factory, means of production are the essential human right.
Magnetic swarf remover they sell for 77, you can probably invent a static one for less.
be an idea to make a bunch of plugs to cover all them old holes...
seems.. slightly overkill? lot of weight to shift for that tiny little cutter. i was loving it (muted) until that head went on. CNC... just interchange Y and Z... its only awkward to side mill when doing it manual... better chip clearing...
looks like it would happily take a 2hp and chew through metal again like the green one you were using... i know i wouldnt be happy with a high speed router. then you can still shove an arbor in and run slabs... does anyone slab mill anymore? had a job a few weeks back where it would have been ideal to gang cutters.
didnt see it being scraped... big thing with an old cast iron dovetail...
Magnetic swarf tool won't work on aluminum.
loco!!! put the second colon for better stability
Great work - shame about the music
Cool project, would love to finish but the music makes me want to drink soy.
You control your volume
One thing is for sure.. I like Ofshane much more than that neffex guy.
Why?
@@eatdabugz just a personal preference and recommendation not to use such commonly disliked genre, even though I suspect it's more fun to work with it on the background.
@@mahead I guess we prefer differently, I thought the music had a nice 90s Offspring vibe
Can't watch this.
You don't like milling machines?
@@eatdabugz Looks like a great project. Can't take the music and style of the video.
The music is very off putting.
