Nice result. How many watts do you get from that laser? Looks like you were cutting at 20mm/sec. Regards, Preso

Is this design good for anything practical like powering a car?

OK, It looks like to it's down to me to ask the stupid question. Why is there a gear on the front wheel if you have a shaft (not sure of the correct term) from the rear wheel driving the front wheel? Shall I get me coat?

Your plex color is very close to the color of the protection plex, funny it can be cut by a laser? 🤔🤫😂

You need a power bandsaw, will make you arms feel better. Faster too. 🙄😁

Nice! Thanks for your time.

Very nice Mate!

You need a porta-band with a nice stand for your shop….I do 95% of my cutting with it!.. takes up almost no square footage!

Nice job on the gears. I like the spin indexer. Looks easier to use than a dividing head. The spin indexer may be a good option for my mini mill? Cheers Nobby

You saw like a teenager, short and fast, use the whole blade

Nice piece of work!

Modern tech has really made home workshops much better and accessible I believe. You can 3d print gears with accuracy good enough for lathe change wheels. I have made a set to include imperial to metric transposing gears. Even PLA is strong enough. Great content as always, thank you. I have taken inspiration from you for casting and machining with some success.

wow

You're making good use of that xtool laser :))

Nice new project!

Nice job 👍👍 Looking forward to the rest of the loco build. Cheers, Alan.

I love using a spindexer when I get a chance to. It's so simple, little can go wrong. I think anyone that has one always has an upgrade they want to do to it.

Rather clever

I would always look for a screw of the correct length to hold blanks on a mandrel. I didn't even think of using a nut on a longer screw. Thanks for the tip.

I wonder if you will ever return and complete that machined 3d printer you was planning to finish.

Interesting to see how many people there are who say these little lathes are nothing more than toys and you can't get any work done on them but really they are the same lot who lack creativity and patience to get things done with what they have. I know those people would still be crying if they got a whole CNC to do everything for them.

GG i was dont know

I fitted an X axis drive to my Tom Senior M1 after adapting your design slightly, at the beginning if lockdowns. It worked so well. Thank you. I'm now going to make this Arduino indexer . I would like to take you upon the offer of a casting if you still have any available. Let me know how to proceed please

Congrats on making the best Cylinder cast aluminum video series on youtube!

can you cast rims?

Good video explained very effectively....good job done.

Start would it take to levitate a military tank off the ground?

❤Another benefit is using the chuck this end for polishing. No dust on the slides. I would make an extra tray to catch debris.

Nice to see the axminster micro lathe used for the job. Great video and very useful.

Brilliant 👍👍 I really liked using a drill bit to get the size for the O-ring groove, must remember that. Cheers, Alan.

What material is the O-ring made from? It doesn't look like the usual buna 'rubber'.

Thanks for sharing. I'll try silicon O-rings on my next engine. I haven't got to the cylinder and piston yet. Cheers Nobby

NICE! :)

Very cool! Is there a ratio of the bore size to stroke length that works best? Or does that ratio change as the size of the engine increases? Thank you for sharing. Always enjoy watching.

Excellent, I made a similar one, 😁

Cómo siempre, excelente trabajo. Saludos desde san Luis, argentina

Interesting. How long will that "O" ring last before it needs replaced?

I have the same exact problem. But i have no mill yet to cut mine. Im tempted to use a grinder cutoff wheel or dremel very carefully. Any suggestions

DID YOU FIND YOUR LOCATING PINS

This is a very informative video. I like the idea of combining investment for the cavity and sand for sprues, etc. I have comparable tools and still probably can’t match the quality you’re getting.

Excellent video 👍👍

the two liter bottle is not a standard sized 2L, it looks much thinner than the average coke or dr pepper 2L

That really was suffering for your art 🤕 Hope it heals well.

Just shows that injuries can happen with small tools/machines same as big tools. Hope you're doing okay. I've been thinking about buying a Sieg lathe, Would you recommend that brand or some other brand? Thanks for the video!

Sorry for your injury. But you're a moron fir getting your hand that close.

Like! Thanks for sharing!

Now THIS is the perfect union of my hobbies😂 old Audis and casting. I was JUST looking at a intake bi-pipe today thinking I could cast it and make my own RS4 bi pipe

I like that idea as i can think of many more uses, like lapping or filing without getting the paste and filings all over the Ways

That was a nasty cut there. I didn't see any adult language in the subtitles. Do be careful of that spinning chuck on the back of the headstock. It could give an even worse bit! Cheers Nobby
