Home Shop Machinists Podcast – Episode 5 – Cake Decorating and Hauling Iron

Listen Later

After getting confused as to what podcast they are recording, Max and Justin talk about hauling machine tools home.  Of course the stories keep getting better and more ostentatious the more they are told.  We also talk about:

  • Max’s work on his Trent Pinion mill
  • Change gears on the lathe – you don’t need that 127 tooth to cut metric threads all the time.  Max finds a really well done gear calculator on the internet: http://geargenerator.com
  • Justin gets a Delta Rockwell surface grinder for the home shop and tells the story about dragging it home in his father in law’s truck
  • Max can’t be outdone: 7 Hjorths, an overloaded van, pouring rain and a flat tire
  • Any other Hjorth owners out there?  Send us some info!
  • High speed grinding attachments
  • Decorating cakes perhaps using This Old Tony’s nice rotary table (Max’s wife probably isn’t interested though) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny5Xxwwpkxs
  • We go through the now not so latest March / April 2017 Home Shop Machinist Magazine (our favorite magazine by far!)  http://www.homeshopmachinist.net/marchapril17/
  • Hazard Fraught Tools: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Hazard+Fraught+tools
  • Brian Rupnow’s flathead engine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np2N5ZxtKu
  • Motores Patelo Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/yesuswilder10/videos
  • You don’t need to have great equipment to make great stuff
  • Durabar
