Wongster's Production: May 2011

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, May 29, 2011. Only one day a week to split my time for my parents, wife, children, and myself. The rest of the week spent working. Tough balancing. Sometimes, I lose focus and spent more than half a day on myself. Even on the free day, I'm still disturbed by phone calls. What can I do to find more personal time? I want more time with my wife, more time with my children, more time with my parents, more time in the home shop. I need solution(s). Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone. I started plan...

Wongster's Production: November 2011

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html

Tuesday, November 8, 2011. Millie In Action on YouTube (ChooChooMike's Channel). I was looking on the web for any build log on the making of Millie and stumble across this video on YouTube posted by Mike (handle: ChooChooMike). The little engine sounded rather nice in the video. I hope that mine will run as well as his when completed. Links to this post. Monday, November 7, 2011. Millie - Cylinder Mount. I started by slicing up the brass stock on my bandsaw for the 2 parts freehand. Yet again, I was out ...

Wongster's Production: December 2011

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html

Saturday, December 31, 2011. PD400 - First Look? The lathe was delivered today to my home. The delivery guy and myself struggled to get it onto the workbench but we managed. I spent sometime trying to figure out how to work this machine, taking pics along the way. It was not an easy task for a newbie. I immediate realized that all the handwheels can't be cranked. It took me a while to get rid of the grease Proxxon used to prep their machines for shipment. Not a defect but rather unsightly. Look at this p...

Wongster's Production: May 2012

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Monday, May 28, 2012. I don't know if there is a technical name for the point on the transfer screw that put a little depression on the stock. But I think you know what I am referring to. This post is not about making the transfer screws as the set I bought is now sitting at the Post Office waiting for my collection. It is about my attempt to make the point like what was shown on Bob Warfield's website (www.cnccookbook) as shown below:. That made my day! This was when the piece just came off the lathe.

Wongster's Production: Broken Lathe Guard and Noisy Belts

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2012/05/broken-lathe-guard-and-noisy-belts.html

Sunday, May 27, 2012. Broken Lathe Guard and Noisy Belts. I had a surprise the other morning when I saw the acrylic cover on the lathe broke from its swivel base. I don't remember breaking it during the last session as that will be pretty obvious looking at the way it is broken. Some noise from within the gear compartment was also heard when the spindle was spinning. I opened the cover to have a look and saw these:. I'll still proceed to order the 2 belts in cases of more damage. Wong, Ive never run a la...

Wongster's Production: January 2012

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html

Monday, January 30, 2012. Picked up some new accessories today. I popped over to Mike's shop to at Fook Hai Building to pick up the independent 4-jaw chuck and the centre turning accessories ordered through him. As usual, I had some fun chatting with him and picked up some idea on the workholding. The centre turning accessories looks as expected except some little chip or dent mark. No big deal there. But when I reached there, in less than an hour's time, only the carcass of the box remains. Let's hope t...

Wongster's Production: March 2012

http://wongstersproduction.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 25, 2012. Hemingway Set-Over Centre: 1/2 Centre Completed. The 1/2 Centre was completed this morning, though much is desired when come to hardening it. It was my first real attempt at hardening and quenching in water. The test with a file, as described in some text I read, left some scratches on it. I'll try the hardening part again when I completed the entire project. The "edge" of the 1/2 found. Drilled through 4mm for the Sherline tommy bar. Another look before hardening. While assemblin...
