Do you even GRIND, Bro?
Added 2024-03-28 14:00:11 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
The lathe has been glaring at me for 4 months, it’s time to put it to work. And by "it", I mean me. Which, as you might expect, never goes quickly. And while I can’t promise a super satisfying reveal, can I tempt you with a negative side project total? Who would have believed it?!
Enjoy!

My inner electrical child in me is crying. You made my inner child 😭... I hope your happy!

2024-03-30 22:24:51 +0000 UTCI'd venture "hyberbola error". Same vein as "cosine error".

2024-03-29 04:35:34 +0000 UTCI'd never considered having one, until I got a surface grinder. They go together like peanut butter and jelly!

2024-03-29 03:33:12 +0000 UTC😂 we all got a little bit of our 12 year old selves in us.
Brandon Sander
2024-03-29 02:43:56 +0000 UTCNah you are right, I only repaired the one 😂 somehow I literally never occurred to me to upgrade both. Watch it fail the next time i use the grinder 🤦♂️
Brandon Sander
2024-03-29 02:43:23 +0000 UTCAlways!

2024-03-29 02:42:24 +0000 UTCI would be more worried about the impurities from the tip of that janky ass soldering iron 😂 thanks, Erik
Brandon Sander
2024-03-29 02:42:17 +0000 UTC😁 Thanks, Jeff!
Brandon Sander
2024-03-29 02:40:08 +0000 UTC🤦♂️ watch it be the next time I use that grinder

2024-03-29 02:39:56 +0000 UTC100% an oven is in my future. Been on the list for a long time honestly and just never bit the bullet as they say. Thanks, Jeff!
Brandon Sander
2024-03-29 02:39:30 +0000 UTCSomehow it literally never even occurred to me to upgrade both 😂 Watch that one go the next time i use the grinder!

2024-03-29 02:38:36 +0000 UTCThat sounds like the best way to go. Still gives "removablility"!

2024-03-29 02:37:37 +0000 UTCA good friend of mine says they work hard to put the smoke in at the factory, careful you don’t let it out!

2024-03-29 02:16:09 +0000 UTCLook, nobody denied I was in the right place, but I was just thinking how satisfying it was to watch you take apart these assemblies, and how you don't see neat castings like that anymore . . . then you commented on your inner 12 year old. Yup. Right place.
Michael Faragher
2024-03-29 00:42:04 +0000 UTCI commented too fast. Serves me right for commenting while watching 😂

2024-03-28 22:23:16 +0000 UTCI have to say, unfortunately, how disappointed I am you didn't do both springs 😞 If the first one failed, how long till you're taking it apart again?? 😢 Lol

2024-03-28 21:23:42 +0000 UTCAh, it seems that you let the magic smoke out 😅 always worrying when that happens. As a side note - an old friend of mine who's an electrical engineer and an overall wizz of electronics once told me - when soldering, you should never blow on the solder you just applied to cool it down/blow away the smoke. The idea is that the water in your breath can contaminate the solder joint, thus causing impurities and eventually cracks. I'm sure that's a serious case of "being overly cautious", but thinking about it, it kinda makes sense. Absolutely not a deal breaker considering the application, but probably worth knowing 😉 Brilliant work as always, Brandon.

2024-03-28 19:29:05 +0000 UTCthat spring should absolutely not been 'free ballin' it in there' LMAO. Another great job Brandon

2024-03-28 16:59:53 +0000 UTCTell me tell me you fixed both sides of the grinders motor... Otherwise a side project is coming again.
Matt B
2024-03-28 16:11:02 +0000 UTCNice job on the I.D. grind Brandon! And the electrical sparks are always fun to watch......when they're someone else's! :) So, thanks for that! Do I sense a heat treat oven in your future? Would definitely be a worthwhile companion to the grinders.
Jeff Loffert
2024-03-28 15:58:50 +0000 UTCI was a little surprised that you didn’t change out the other spring while you were in there, but seeing as how the original repair didn’t work, it might’ve been for the best to not mess with anything that wasn’t broken.
Max Goldstein
2024-03-28 15:40:39 +0000 UTCI thought you had an issue with the carriage motor. It is designed identically. I had the same issue with those pesky springs, made brass rings with a set screw and fixed it right up.
