Tom, This is a nice video series! I find it amazing how true that older Clausing runs. We have two new ones at work, they would make better boat anchors than drill presses. The best of the two runs .012 wobble out of the box. I have No idea what they paid for them. If a hole needs to be small or accurate, I just take the time to set up the mill. Neither drill press has got more than 2 hours on it in the past 5 or 6 years, since new. Who knows, may be they fell off the truck in route to the shop!

Tom, Our shop had probably 25 or 30 of these Clausing drill presses. They're real workhorses. I love them. Clausing did a good job across the entire product line. Eventually CNC fully took over secondary drilling operations and most of those machines became deburring stations. We had stand alone machines, gang drills, and various sizes from 15" to 20", some with power feed and/or variable speed and reversing options. Repairing the variable pitch pulleys is costly as OEM parts are only sold by Clausing as sets. The parts manuals show individual parts, but you cannot purchase components. I purchased a 20" gang drill head and column from the shop just to get the ball bearing Jacobs chuck that was on it, then sold chuckless head and column for 3 times my expense. Sometimes you are in the right place. That chuck now lives on a 20" DoAll gearhead drill press that outclasses the Clausing. The DoAll was sourced from a now bellied up Italian manufacturer, so parts are no longer available. I'm not worried since the DoAll is just my basement shop machine. We never used our Clausing drill presses for heavy drilling, so I have never seen a belt slip. You will enjoy your machine for the rest of your life, and will probably never do any maintenance to it.

Great Video Thanks. Way back about 25 years ago I had a small 10 in lathe I got from a high school shop. Thankfully the drive belt slipped if you tried to take to deep of a cut, well one day I was sanding a part in the lathe with some roll cloth sandpaper. I made the mistake of wrapping the end around the shaft and I was holding the other end with my right hand. When I used my left hand to make the sand paper cut it sucked my right in and rapped my thumb around the shaft backwards and stopped the lathe. I was very lucky the belt was loose and I still have the thumb. I didn't realize the danger at the time but it gave me a whole new respect for what could happen while just sanding. My main reason for sharing this is there are quite a few people getting lathes for home shops and it might prevent them from making the same mistake I did. It hurt like hell at the time but all is well today.

Full disclosure, I’m not a machinist, but for a better fitting chuck and arbor, is there a reason why you can’t just mount the arbor into the drill press (without the chuck). Then, add lapping compound to the chuck separately. Once you turn on the drill press, you can insert the chuck and it will remove any high spots from both the arbor and chuck for a perfect fit. Engine builders do this with fitting valves to valve seats.

Maybe the arrangements of the belts under the cover?

Thanks a lot for the videos Tom, I just watched a few of your other videos and then all 3 of the ones about this drill back to back. They were fascinating and I don't even own a stationary tool lol. One thing I was really curious about is, if you ever had to get that new arbor out of the chuck for whatever reason how would you do it? Maybe my eyes deceive me but since it is actually a stepped down arbor it doesn't look like there is a place where you could use wedges again. There is that 1/8th hole but would you be able to press it back out with such a small rod?
@oxtoolco
10 жыл бұрын
Hi Nevir, You are correct. The new arbor is going to be harder to remove because of the taper sizes. Hopefully I wont have to cross that bridge. If I had to think of something to try I would most likely warm the chuck body quickly and try to punch it through the 1/8 hole in the bottom of the chuck. Barring that I would sacrifice the $7.00 arbor by welding something to it to save the $300 chuck. Good question. Best, Tom
@Nevir202
10 жыл бұрын
oxtoolco Thanks for the response! I figured it was probably not your intention to ever remove the arbor after seeing the trouble you went through to get it installed. You mean, if driving it off failed you would weld something on to allow you to hydraulically press it off? That's a pretty cool idea given the quite low price of the piece to be sacrificed. I understand that the point of the video was to show the correct way to do it and showcase machining techniques but I think if I was in a similar situation I would be pretty tempted to do that from the outset. One other thing if I may, what is the purpose of this drill press in your shop? After watching some more of your videos it seems to me that your mill can do anything that this drill press can, probably with greater speed an accuracy. Is it just a matter of having multiple people in the shop so that you may need to be using both machines at once or is there something that this press can do that the mill cannot?

Great videos! but i would recommend that you fast forward edit some of it. But by all means do not lose important details, just on the most obvious common sense stuff.

Hi Belete, I'll leave the fast forwarding to the viewers. I have no idea what is obvious and simple. Its all obvious and simple to me but I still make video's so other people can learn the subtleties of the work. Thanks for the comment and participation. All the best, Tom

Rookie question please. I have an old unit that quill travel suddenly became almost nil. Manual sent to me by Clausing refers to two grease fittings under head to lube feed shaft, yet there are none present. Where do I turn for expert advice?

Mike s Hi Mike, I would start by examining the quill in the area where the handle enters the housing. See if you can easily remove the pinion and handle to take a look at the rack and quill of the machine. Shoot some light lube in like WD-40 to flush out any crud. If you have a manual it may have a cross section in it to give you some idea how its put together. Hope this helps. Best, Tom

There still is people like me who buy a genuine Albrecht arbor for $83. I can’t bring myself to buy Chinese no matter cost. Crazy?? I don’t think so.

Hy Tom, What a find! Got me looking for tools on craigs list now. Friend I always tape the paper to a dowel rod to sand the hole, very protective of my fingers since I lost part of a finger and my left foot to frost bite. Tried dropping the link for the web site, damn email! arouindthecabin. com. Live in Indiana, don't now how far that is from your shop, but would like to visit some time and get ideas for the completion of my hobby shop. The building is 30 30 12' ceilings. Later Mike

Tom, I just trawled the CCP site and found the closest thing to those wipes you showed here.... www.ccpind.com/product/300WCFP Might save someone an hour or two as they have a ton of similar products.
