Spherical Turning on a Manual Lathe

In our opinion, ball handles are the best type of locking lever. In this video, we introduce two possible methods of machining ball handles. This can be done entirely on a metal working lathe - a milling machine is not required for this project.

A Handmade Antikythera Mechanism: Rediscovering an Ancient Greek Enigma
I admire anyone who has an idea, and then executes it, even if it's for something silly! :D Fantastic work; I respect your skills!
Beautiful little object of desire
Excellent video. I need to machine a new graduated cylinder for my Archdale miller, and I now have a much better idea how to go about it. Just need to find a pantograph engraver...
You could always just.... Nah, this is good.
are they for sale?
Gloriously superfluous!
This must be the most useless machine! That you even spend time making it.
7:22 those chips were just magnificent
This is very close to magic
Lovely, and good looking too
No teapot? 🫖
Does the mechanism not make the tea taste bad?
15:50 The answer is to use a cardioid mechanism. Like a clicky pen.
Does the center rivet holding the two strips not mess with the flexing of the metal?
This is one of the most coolest things I've ever seen.
lead in that small of a ratio wont have long term health side effects. the food u eat will different story.
Btw if you don't want to do the pretentious math you just heat up the strip to the desired temperature and measure it.
thanx for the basic knowledge. obviously British, the capital b is a second thought, get over yourselves (whats the deal over Tea)
Come clean, now ! You're the guy who designed the original Mouse Trap game, aren't you ?
Wondering how the 3d model for the 120 cell was made? Is it generated mathematically?
Wonderful. Thank you for sharing!
And as a bonus, it cools your tea faster!
550 grams of hot water in a 120 mm diametre mug gets down to 55 °C in about 16 minutes 500 grams of hot water in a 185 mm diametre plate gets down to 55 °C in about 12 minutes I drink tea from a plate now
what liquid cutting oil did you use when you were threading the screws for the balancing wheels? those threads came out looking super good.
I like the use if rivets!
Truly beautiful and ingenious.
I love when overengeneering does not imply using AI to replace an IF statement. This was a fascinating watch. Definitely worth suscribing for more. Thank you !
Ah yes, tetenium
Wonderful work! I have taught Thermodynamics at the college level for 30 years and would have loved to have shown this video in class. We had a small, working Stirling engine model but nothing on this miniature scale. Thanks for this effort.
Totaly insane!!! 😮😮❤❤
Every machinist ever: I will now make this one micron wide tool out of a 20 foot by 20 foot block of metal...
Nice lathe, always liked Myford. I weighed the choice 35 years as the price was comparable and went with the Austrian Maximat Super11. Can be lifted by two people, runs forward & reverse, greater swing not limited by length, longer bed, separate cross and travel drive from threading shaft, foot brake option, D1-4 quick change chuck head, 1.4" hole through spindle and induction hardened bed. The Maximat FB2 is a nicer mill than the Dore also.
How outlandish
What a great little invention! The only part that I thought was a bit lacking was the ring of the bell. I suspect it might ring a bit clearer if it was sat balancing on a pin instead of screwed on tightly.
Hello, Sir. I am a DIY man, with many different interest in many knowledge fields. Yet, I have to be mostly a self taught person. I loved to watch this video of yours even though I will not do anything similar. I had much curiosity about how a mechanical watch/clock is made. As well as other mechanical things. 1000 Thanks for such a college lesson, with normal sound volume, plain English, in normal understandable speed, without psycadelic "music"/sound❤. (Sorry for my bad English)
god those vise jaws are so clean my eyeballs can't stop looking
this is a good project and i subbed to your channel...but if your tea is bad when its cold...thats just bad tea imo
Now show us how they make the .6 mm thread die.
I can already hear Alec (Technology Connections) talking about his best friend, the bimetallic strip again...
I think that your biggest problem is in fact the strength of the materials. Steel withstands the wire test because it is structurally very strong. Its strength can be adjusted by tempering. That's why they use it for blades! We take it for granted but its a very high tech material. Glass on the other hand despite our 'perception' is a soft material and does not withstand the wire test because the edge deforms under pressure. As would non tempered steel The wire is possibly harder than the glass. If you cut materials that were softer than glass such as mammoth meat you might find that it performed better. (good luck on finding the mammoth meat).
Best sterling engine application I’ve seen - solar thermal generators on a smaller scale (Not like This!) uses mirrors and sterlings to power generators… SCIENCE!
You could get a bit more from your bell if you lifted it on a tiny spring, or otherwise gave it a little more mobility than you have there… Perhaps even shaping the support post to come to a wedge shape, or point, instead of a flat surface… Clever execution nonetheless!
Waste of brain power. If this is the only gimmick it takes these days to sell to idiots to become rich. I should be able to become a millionaire fairly quick.
judging by ur channel, youve been uploading for 11 years yet barely 14 subs...
I found a far simpler solution. I bought a good quality insulated mug.
So elegantly over engineered. Excellent work!
5 seconds into the video and I'm subbed. I'll be shocked if my quick decision turns into a sour one.
Thank you. I have the EMCO milling head and I also appreciate the versatility above rigidity. Over the last 40 years it has paid dividends in the hobby and commercial work I have done.
this shit is the brittiest thing that I have ever seen xDDD
I could have done all of this without showing any math. That's what sucks about education. Making great engineers feel incapable because of equations. My rant.
Brilliant! 👍
