Restoration pipe threading machine | Restoring old machine

Very beautiful place, nice green landscapes.

Как музейный экспонат пойдет, а как как инструмент... отдайте на переплавку

Ты не востановил машину !

Короче. Резьбу нарезать так и не смог.

Colleagues Internet users are right about the need to buy or make at least an uncommon assembly table. The back is too overloaded! The repair of the old electric threader is correct, but it seems to me that the thread die is already worn. A lot of hard work, congratulations and best regards 😀.

I have actually operated a machine much like this. A little bigger and the well was full of cutting/cooling oil. As a kid, I thought it was very old in 1962. Worked well tho.

Was soll das für ein Gemengel zum Schluss sein? Denkt der Kollege die Reparatur ist durch?

Ну да, шарахался по местности и кто-то ,,случайно,, снимал видео...

What in the hell is using water?😢 I use the same pipe machine every day. It has to be oil. Not water. But I give him an a for trying

Cleaning the surface from rust and painting - is not a restoration without fixing it's geometry. Parts are horribly wobbling, and the thread quality you got is total fail. Also machine oil has to be used instead the water. Watch videos how to work with portable diestock with adjusted jaws, and how to sharpen them.

I, as others remember a machine very similar to this one, Made by Ridge Tool Co, for many years the top maker of pipe tools, and very popular; "Some day you will wish you had a RIDGID tool!" Whatever make this particular machine is, it is very similar to the Ridgid 400 power vice. I first used one in the mid sixties, then much later actually bought one for the Maintenance department at work...that was around 1992. Far as I know, it is still working like new. Never had a problem with rust, as the parts were always well supplied with oil during normal operation! NEVER use water or a water based cutting fluid! Use only cutting oil, available in light or dark. I always used dark, as a can came packed with the machine, and it was quite satisfactory. By the way, the original power cord was very heavy, #10 I believe, as it drew a lot of amps when under load cutting threads in 2" pipe! It also was controlled by a foot switch, and had a reversing switch.

Restauro non eseguito molto bene ...mancanza di un accurata pulitura dei particolari e non riverniciato alcuni particolari che in origine erano verniciati. Mancanza di un banco da lavoro per il montaggio della madrevite e mancanza di metodo. Consiglierei di osservare video di come si esegue un corretto restauro restando comodi ....buon lavoro

Всё-таки завидую я им: у них всё растёт буквально под ногами - от джекфрута до труборезного станка...

The man @kfourom is right you cant use water, threading oil go's in the bottom.

Это постановка!

Olio per filettare non acqua, vaschetta per truccioli di ferro cuscinetti che tagliano con dentatura giusta in base al tubo da filettare posizionati esattamente sulla misura del tubo che va fresato in testa con la fresa alla quale manca la manopola. L'ho usata tanti anni ero idraulico.
