Instead of thinking and mumbling on the pillow, at 2am I prefer to look at a more educative video:
«Grinding and Honing a #Lathe Tool»

Now a cup of coffee and back to bed with clearer ideas 😍
Farsi in casa gli utensili per il #tornio è un po' meno facile di quanto possa sembrare.
Ma si può fare, mannaggia!

Invidious che a me ha funzionato:

I had a time making a part for my new lathe. It was educational.
Lathe crimes absolutely pay. This came out better than I could've reasonably hoped. Very happy.
I had to chop some of the metal away to hold tools at the correct height. I tried to use a HSS milling bit but these tool holders turned out to be hardened steel, and the HSS just got hot and angry. A carbide boring bar in the chuck made short work of it.
I am doing #lathe crimes and there's nobody here to stop me.
Turns out I don't need to buy a carbide endmill after all!
One Sailing Pulley To Rule Them All

It turns out that a great tool for modifying my #lathe is itself.
I'm having a great time making these little videos as I lean stuff about machining. It's a fun journey.
