<\/p>\nHello, everyone.<\/p>\n
This is Enta.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Did you know this?<\/p>\n
I don't think the average person would have the slightest idea what this is, but it's a machine used in machining called a lathe.<\/p>\n
It's quite old.<\/p>\n
But I bought one this time!<\/p>\n
Even if an item is used, if its provenance is clearly known and the previous owner can provide a detailed explanation, it commands a high price.<\/p>\n
This machine is 40 years old, too!<\/p>\n
However, even so, it\u2019s very well maintained and capable of achieving accuracy down to 1\/100!<\/p>\n
That said, it\u2019s not like I can do it right away, lol.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This machine, called a lathe, can be used to cut threads, among other things.<\/p>\n
Clamp an iron rod in a vise and spin it at high speed.<\/p>\n
Slowly press the blade\u2014called a \"bite\"\u2014against the rod to cut it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
You can build up the worn areas on the shaft of this blower blade with weld filler and then cut them cleanly with a cutting tool!<\/p>\n
Sure, there are times when it's cheaper to buy it, but,<\/p>\n
The skill that is currently being lost is repair.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We've reached an era where there are no longer any repairmen.<\/p>\n Just last month, another LEGEND passed away.<\/p>\n Replacing the assembly when upgrading has been the standard practice up until now.<\/p>\n I don't think that will change in the future.<\/p>\n However, repair skills are definitely necessary.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Japanese machinery is truly amazing\u2014even models that are no longer in production are still in active use today.<\/p>\n To ensure that this tradition continues, we\u2019d like to incorporate these kinds of techniques into our work as well.<\/p>\n I'm actually a complete novice, so I'm going to have a pro from my neighborhood come over to teach me! (There will be a fee, lol.)<\/p>\n I\u2019ve heard that once I learn how to use a lathe, I\u2019ll be able to use a milling machine too, so I\u2019m going to practice using the lathe for a while.<\/p>\n I hear it's super hard, but I'm going to give it a try!<\/p>\n Looks like we might be setting up a machining department soon, lol.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n See you later.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello, everyone.
