Re: Internal Threading - Compound Setup
No Jody To the left. I would not disengage the half not if the your 1/2 nut has a lot of wear. Back up under power. I hope you have a reverse on the lathe

Thanks for the info.-Jody -------- Original message -------- From: Guenther Paul <paulguenter@...> Date: 1/8/19 5:02 PM (GMT-06:00) To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [atlas-craftsman IO] Internal Threading - Compound Setup Jody In 54 years I had never had a threaded on chuck come loose. Don't worry if you put the chuck on properly meaning when you get to the last 1/4 turn you give it a hard spin so you can hear a click the chuck is on it will not come loose GP -------------------------------------------- On Tue, 1/8/19, Jody <jp4lsu@...> wrote: Subject: Re: [atlas-craftsman IO] Internal Threading - Compound Setup To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, January 8, 2019, 5:41 PM Thanks Andrei,I'm actually subscribed to his channel. He is good and goes a bit fast for me sometimes. This is his external thread video but he also has an internal thread video. If I remember correctly, he starts the cutter in the bore, runs in reverse and the feed comes out of the bore from left to right. I'm a little nervous doing it this way because of the chuck on the Atlas being threaded on.-Jody -------- Original message -------- From: Andrei <calciu1@...> Date: 1/8/19 1:40 PM (GMT-06:00) To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [atlas-craftsman IO] Internal Threading - Compound Setup Joe Pieczinski, a great YouTube machinist with loads of skill has done that on a larger lathe, but it should work just fine unless you are trying to take 3/8 DOC.

So I'm going to be doing some internal threading here in the next week or so hopefully.? initially I was thinking of running in reverse and start the cutting from down inside the bore and come out.? Considering the chuck is threaded on, I'm rethinking this.? Although on a 1 1/2" bore, will the cutting forces really be high enough with a 3/4" moment arm (from the spindle axis) to unwind the chuck?? Probably not.? I'd be curious if anybody has done this in reverse.? Now if it was on a 4" ID, it would be a definite no for me to do it this way because the cutting forces would be acting 2" away from the spindle axis and have a larger moment arm to create higher torque to unwind the chuck. Anyway, being this is my 1st time doing threading, I don't want to risk it so I will be staying in forward. Question for running in forward direction: What compound setup do you guys like to use?? ????? -29-30 deg compound with compound axis pointing away from head stock (backwards to how you would have it for turning)? I saw on Youtube "Tom's Techniques" channel do this. ????? - Or set compound on 29 - 30 deg conventional direction and flip cutter upside down and cut the back side feeding compound in with each pass.? Thanks for any pointers and help, Jody |
