Tiny threaded holes make me nervous.
I cut out a small aluminum frame for a customer the other day. With parts like this you really need to plan ahead as to what to cut first or you can end up in a spot with nothing to clamp onto. The part had several 2mm x .4 threaded holes in it. Makes a person nervous cutting those. The tap can break quite easily and ... Read More
Machined Spacers and Washers
Had a few sets of plastic spacers and heavy steel washers to cut this week. Not all that tough as far as precision machining goes. The plastic is 2 1/2" Acetyl, tougher than polyethylene and cheaper than Nylon. The steel is generic cold rolled 3.5" diameter, so pretty easy to machine. Read More
Graphite, what a mess.
Finished up some graphite test bars yesterday. It machines quite easy but it sure makes a mess of the machine.(and the operator) I had to build a fixture to cut the 9" radius. It worked OK for these, but I don't think it will be a permanent shop fixture. It's not rigid enough to cut harder materials. Read More

The material is a copper-nickel and it's quite "sticky" and produces a lot of heat when machined. The part also had a required tolerance of +-.002" on the length so I had to be very careful parting them off. w... Read More
A liitle welding needed for the John Deere H
Here is a part I repaired for a fellow a while back. The tractor had continued to be used after the wheel bearings had failed and the front spindles were severely damaged. The repair involved welding the damaged areas to fill in the worn away material, then machining away the weld to restore the bearing surfaces to their or... Read More
Not just for metal.
I’ve been gluing up some oak 4 x 4′s and since I can’t turn them in my wood lathe I thought the metal lathe will work fine. Not exactly precision machining but hey, a fellow needs to have some variety. Need to be a little creative with the tool post…. Read More
