The lathe has always been my favorite machine, and while I love that is manual, there are some things that are a little too manual. Like the lock nut on the quick change tools post. For as frequent as I change the tool post angle, I find it cumbersome to have to go digging for a wrench every time. So I made a new lock nut with an integrated handle!

PATREON - A Better Tool Post Nut || INHERITANCE MACHINING

Welcome back to the machine shop! This video I’ll be making a much needed metal lathe upgrade and machining an improved tool post nut for my Phase II quick change tool post. As usual I start the design process at the drafting table before moving over to the engine lathe. Seems simple enough of a project, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t ripe for a slew of machining fails. This was bound to happen when trying some new techniques for the first time. Like metric thread cutting, precision compound rest adjustment, taper turning, and some questionable setups on the vertical milling machine. #inheritancemachining #machineshop #hobbymachininst If you’d like to support the channel, or are looking for design drawings, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/inheritancemachining And a special thanks to my "Micrometer" level patrons!
