Those Toy Chinese Plastic Lathes, In action machining aluminium
Hey Guys
took me a while to get a one whole video of the lathe in action, this aluminium was annealed for 5mins with a blow torch than dunked in cold water actually under a running tap
i haven't used the lathe in a while and when i started the bit was blunt scroll forward to see it cutting better, in the video i was making a bearing spacer that holds the yamaha needle bearings in place the spacers is pushed out the side of the piston with the piston pin, its basically just a tool to hold the bearings in place
quiet a long video 30mins in the end i ended up making another piece as this lathe is no good for cutting off pieces however it does machine it well
