Making Needle Bearings on a Lathe | Parts Remanufacturing

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Needle Bearing

The other day, I made a needle bearing for a drilling machine.

What do you think?

This is just a video of me carving.

 

Actually, I really love spinning games! lol

My favorite thing is the spinning of the washing machines at the laundromat.

I love just staring at that. I could watch it until the laundry's done, lol.

When I was a kid, I used to stare at those twin-tub washing machines, didn't I?

 

And this time, while I was looking at the lathe, I thought, “I want to watch this for a long time!” so I decided to film a video.

Actually, this video is about 20 minutes long in total, but I don't think many people would want to watch the whole thing if I posted it, so I've edited it down quite a bit lol.

If you want to see more, come visit me lol

Needle Bearing

For now, I'll trim the entire piece to size, drill a hole in the center, and tap the hole.

Thread Cutting, Tap

Use a tap to cut the threads. Since any misalignment will ruin the result, press down firmly on the center while cutting the threads in a straight line.

That's it, then.

 

Today is the day I'm going to teach that to the staff, lol.

I was explaining this to one of our employees just the other day.

It's great to see everyone's skills improving like this, isn't it?

 

If you want to try your hand at lathe work, feel free to stop by our place and give it a go lol

See you later.

 

P.S.: Thank you to the several people who contacted me regarding the job posting the other day.

We look forward to your continued support.
