And here's me getting wound up with my toy Chinese hobby lathe trying to stick an 8mm hole through some horrible mystery stainless I found in the bin at work (work hardens just by looking at the stuff... ). Hats off to you tackling the big long stuff.

And after you get those 11 done, there's another 50 on the truck!

Wonderful mr. Wilks, just wonderful. And I love how you introduce us to your guest on the lathe in a tone that suggests there is no hope 🤣

Having worked in high precision and heavy engineering it's good to see some proper machining like this...yes the small high spec machines are fun to watch but theres nothing like some brute force chip making

A Swift lathe. Another machine from Halifax. They tended to put a lot of cast iron in the machines from Yorkshire back in the day.

Lovely to see a Swift in action. I worked at a repair company that had three. The coolant tank and the return from the machine was cut into the concrete floor and covered with drilled steel plates to work on, it made cleaning easier.

Hi Dave, I've been watching your channel for a couple years now. I wanted to tell you that I made a big boring bar at my work based on what I learned from your channel. The bar is meant to bore the inside of a 3in sch40 pipe. It can go 20 inches and on the finish pass we get about 40uin Ra. We run it on a Polish made TUR560. No one believed me it would work... when it did I told them I got the idea from a bloke ok youtube. Keep up the great work!

Least you have plenty of work David, the Trepanning looks great 👍 these are skill that aren’t being passed to the young ones. Wish I had got into the game a lot earlier than I did, some great Skills to be learned.

So if Sandvik does not make the tools or the inserts.. are there tool supplier that still have inventory on the inserts to keep you going.. or do you have to build a jig and resharpen the cutting surfaces of the inserts with a diamond tool.. or will you just make up your own tools that use currently available inserts.. thanks for the great show and tell.
