Fully Machined Custom Leadscrew 4140 | Lion Lathe Restoration

I work in a Dubai industry of machine preter and was very impressed to see your work🎉

It's amazing how the entire lathe machine moves as the tool post is still during cuts. Fancy smancy !

The 4140 looked like it machined beautifully…LOVE that American lathe

Really appreciate your videos. I have a great lathe and a great mill. I'm completely self-taught & greatly respect your knowledge. There are a few channels that I depend on for learning and you're one of them. I can't ever thank you enough for how much I've learned from you. Your impact on the world of machining will be permanent and good for all of us.

that leadscrew looks very nice! Thank you for sharing 👍 ...btw...great filming & editing!

Love watching single point threading! Follow rest was definitely the way to go, better safe than sorry! Nice looking work for sure

I love your content, and you exude confidence when explaining and performing your work. You have a new subscriber. I was surprised to hear uncertainty when you talked about your drawing. It looks very good, and I'm creating and using them all the time. Here's a hot tip for your next drawing; use ordinate dimensions. I started my career as a machinist, and I always had the absolute XY on the DRO set on the left front corner of the fixed jaw of the milling vise. I do my CAD drawings the same way, with each datum dimensioned like it will come up on the display.

As a Machinist/Mechanic i can say: Good Job. Well done. 👍 Greets from Switzerland

Excellent job, Kyle.👍

Great camera work on the threading. I liked the hanging rotary table. You do what you have to do to get the job done!

Xlnt! I like the follow rest…it looks like it burnished the tops of the threads. Really, very nice!

Another interesting and educational video. Thanks!

Another winner there Kyle. 👍

@Vanover Customs Very smart presentation of the risk your work piece will move and how to mitigate. I've avoided turning per-hardened steel for this very reason several times, now I think I can tackle it. Thank you.

This was a great video, Thanks.

Nice job.

Good job 👍👍👍

Very Nice Job. .looks great. . should last a life time..

The company l served my apprenticeship at and retired from we had some LeBlond Regals with Two Speed Tailstocks. They also had worm gear driven Depth Dials. Much nicer than relying on the scale on the quill

Coolant!
