My telegram channel
A hacker deleted my Telegram channel, I've recreated it but anyone who had my telegram contact will find it marked DELETED ACCOUNT but it will still have any old messages in it. If you wish to re-add my new/old account, it is: @JerryDurand Jerry Durand +7 961 517 87 58 I'm in the process of getting my Telegram channel back. It automatically transferred to an admin so it's not gone, I'm just not the owner now.

Depends on your distance from the equator. Changes in latitude, changes in attitude. On 15-Feb-25 10:28, davesmith1800 wrote:

Here few photos of a setup for milling on a mini lathe .

The cutoff blade holder for my lathe came with a missing clamp, I would normally grab a piece of drill rod to make something like that but that was on the other side of the ocean. Here I have to learn all the metals over again as they're similar but different. So, I ordered a piece of 20mm diameter ST20 to make this out of. A simple project, not critical, but will sure make the lathe more useful. I think ST20 is like a typical cold rolled steel that I'd get in the USA, but I'm not sure. Well, as long as it isn't something hard to machine like stainless it should work for this project. I have a place within walking distance that sells steel, called Metal Base. There's also a few more within 5 or so km. But it's all hot rolled. Good for some projects, but I wouldn't want to make a tool clamp out of it. There's a couple of online shops here (Ozon and Wildberries) that are something like Amazon. They carry a wide range of stuff and deliver to pickup points, one of which is across the parking lot from where we buy groceries. So, that's where I'll be getting small quantities of things like this. For larger quantities, I would have to buy from the regional capitol which is 50 km away. Either drive there or pay high delivery costs. I think I'll stick with Ozon for now. There's also a few scrap yards around here, I need to visit them more. Maybe I'll find some good stuff for the projects bin.

Message subject change
I changed the subject line so it's not so long, more in line with other groups. Hopefully this makes it easier to find things. If there's any issue with this, we can put it back as it was.

Clamping an angle plate or stop in place. Bill in OKC William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.) Aphorisms to live by: Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement. SEMPER GUMBY! Improvise, Adapt, and Overcome. Physics doesn't care about your schedule. The only reason I know anything is because I've done it wrong enough times to START to know better. Expect in one hand, expectorate in the other. See which one gets full first.

That may be a standard steel shape that they just buy off the shelf. Like extrusion profiles, only machined. On 15-Feb-25 7:49, davesmith1800 wrote:

When the GPS goes because of sun spots or a country does knock gps. The NAVY is back the old way the sextant. NAVY is back to teaching using the Sextant. This looks like a navigation system for today's Aircraft Carry. Better something we can build on a mini lathe and shop Dave

Charts and tables
/g/minilathe/files/5%29Charts_&_Tables For some reason #8 did not downloading to my phone later today turn a real computer and get done. It is on hardness testing I like leaves no marks on finished parts. The biggest cost in the plexiglass tube. Today I use a ?" diameter ball bearing so if drop on floor I can find the ball. At one time I had Rockwell tester but it leaves a mark after testing not good on new parts. It is nice easy useful project too. The Mohs hardness is easier for looking for materials scratch and go with magnic. All do is use like pencil of few type of hardness , magnetic and tape and ready for material hunting. The magnic is good see steel or not and 300 series and 400. FYI Most avoid 400 and it is magnic will work hardened to glass Dave .
