I can see you have stahlwerk welding machine. What you think about it? There is almost no reviews on the internet.

Are you seriously? Spent only 20h for onboarding should be a reason for USE freecad!

how is this lathe is different then WM 180 from Warco?

Had mine laying in the box for a year before mounting it on the bench. Made some testing and it worked like yours. When I finally decided to use it for real it was totally dead, well the lazer worked. By that time the warranty was gone. Called the support today and learned that for this machine there's really no support and no spares to buy. So, next time when or if I'm gonna buy any Parkside I'll look for the B2 series instead which ofcourse has a totally different price tag.

Thanks for sharing and making a useful video :)

Excellent example of supreme engineering. Thankyou.

This is interesting, I just got an x1c and it only came with a gold PEI plate and no cool plate

Thank you! I have a mill like yours and it is my first time, i am scared!

Yeah I love freecad, it's a discipline because it doesn't forgive error. But that is one of its best features, you have to think about what you are doing. Mango jelly always calls it a work flow, and that is the right way to think about it. One of my personal favourite workbenches is spreadsheet because you can take complete control of the dimensions of your sketches from one page and watch the changes in an instant.

Wiew from street above the ocean is amazing, like 3d ilusion. Amazing trip

your cross slide gib strips need adjustment.

nice tool! Thanks!

cool trip dude, go to south portugal next (algarve) and eat on my Uncle restaurant on Avis Avenue. its called "Augustus". Nice voyage, God Bless. Greetings from Brazil!

dude your channel is a gem!! Greetings from Brazil

Top demais Saudações do Brasil !!🤝

I only just found this, and you're done with it after a year? Shame, it was just what I was looking for. 😥 And I'm in the UK not the EU... If anyone in the UK bought one and doesn't plan on using it, I'd be interested for the right price!

This is a very neat mix of old technology and new. Any trouble with the strength of the prints? What did you do the prints with? Simple PLA or PTeG?

Absolutely bloody amazing! Love it!

I'm just switching from Fusion 360 to FreeCAD. The next version that comes out will be simplifying a lot of things and save a lot of time. The thing I dislike Fusion most is you have to upgrade every time there's a new upgrade which means you have to learn how to reuse the program, I mostly just do my modeling in the winter when the weather is bad and this can take some time to relearn so look forward to having a disk based program that I can learn and it won't be changing till I want to.

I originally used AutoCad then switched to pro/engineer, then to Solidworks for decades. All excellent programs. I tried getting into Freecad a couple times over the years, the solver is definitely a weak point (and definitely a strong point in Solidworks). Then I had a job change and worked with Fusion for a couple months, I swear it’s nothing but a refined version of AutoCad + AME (the advanced modeling extension). Once I comprehended that, Fusion was much more approachable. The solver is the weakest yet, well, AutoCad was never truly successful implementing parametric constraints. The solver has to be the weakest in the industry, though the most capable as far as Autodesk products go. Fusion timeline is almost never a good idea to meddle with, in fact you can turn the history mode off completely and just use the program like you’re sculpting: anything you do is permanently captured and completely irreversible! Solidworks is a superior tool, but Fusion is indeed highly approachable, and surprisingly full-featured, despite the pitiful solver. Freecad is getting better and better all the time. I will probably switch over completely to Freecad.

Also there is a new "Ondsel" that is basically a cover over a Freecad. Which costs some 15$/mo or so, but it is nicer in all aspects.

Bruce here, great job of engineering and fabrication.

Restocking isn't planned for now. !!!

Changing or deleting random stuff in the past completely breaks the entire model, even though nothing after that point has any connections to the changes... Worst of all, the errors it gives are either nonsensical or too vague. Some stuff that is expected to work flawlessly by default needs crappy workarounds in order to get half decent results, and lets not mention how crappy assembly and part alignment is...

I started designing for 3D printing with FreeCAD 3 weeks ago. Today I was very frustrated and fundamentally questioned the decision to use FreeCAD. You have encouraged me and I will stick with it.

I have a P1S and a Flashforge AM5 Pro and I would say that both of these printers are pretty much on par with each other. P1S is slightly larger build plate, but I rarely print things that are over 200mm anyway. I mostly use them for printing functional parts so I have no real use for an AMS.

Thanks for a very informative video. Cheers.

Ty Sir

If you have the X1C you should just print ABS and ASA. Brush on some wolfbite or nano polymer and your prints will stick like a mofo.

Остатками английского пришлось пользоваться, но в принципе все понял)

А чем эта версия лучше предыдущей, которая без ремня?

Please do not slam the measuring jaws shut!

Excellent tips !

I agree with the cool plate they supplied. The P1S comes with a PEI textured plate, which is considerably better than what the X1C came with.

what length of stepper motor did you use?

solidworks has a cheap license for the maker package

Thats an old grease gun.

Hi maxim, a question sir. Did that lathe comes with the quick change toolpost? Thanks.

@0:23 for anyone else watching, this is not a good way to press and bearings. You never want to put force through a bearing into a race when seating it, it can put dents into the race that cause premature failure. For typical deep groove roller bearings, you make a shell/tube that only contacts the race you are driving against. If it’s on the shaft you make a shell that only contacts the inner ring. If you are seating it into a bore you make a shell that only contacts the outer ring. So for these tapered roller bearings, just leave the roller pack out-of-the-way entirely and use a block of wood or aluminum to press the outer race into the bore (which is where he ended up at @0:25 anyways)

Mine got stuck in a peace of timber and produced a little smoke. Not working anymore, burned-out. Any idea how to repair it 😢

Hmm. interesting. I ended up on this video while researching pluses and minuses of dropping FreeCAD and starting to learn Fusion. But it seems it would not be a big win.

I've just watched some videos of it but the assembly process seems a bit hampered... In Autodesk Inventor you just click the surfaces, planes or edges of the different parts that you want to align with each other.. instead of having to select some coordinate systems in the parts, from a menu...

Exactly, just a couple of week ago I got my lathe here and even today (year 2024) the China factories are having same issues ! what is really frustrating to me is, the factories have all the resources and quality raw materials the need to do it right yet they chose to cheap out on stuff like this... yes from day one I had to start modifying mine since I do not like at all bad precision machines .. next for me is the cross slide that even with the adjusting of those 3 screws will not do the job -- wayyy too much slack

To avoid future problems do not use heat with heat guns to expand the metals because the lubrication on the spindle bearings will evaporate.

I clamped rod with bearing on it in parallel with spindle, and put a steel rod in tool holder collet. Glad i had universal holder with whole set of diameters, had place for imporovisation. So losened drawbar a little and powered machine. Then put force on the tip of the rod with the bearing. That seemed to do nothing, but then tried pulling toll holder with crowbar and it poped. Earlier crowbar was not enough. So im not sure what actually worked, but now im relieved a lot😅

I’m sad I missed these kits! Do you happen to know what encoder you got to work with these? I am trying to follow your GitHub instructions, but don’t see an encoder listed. Thank you!

What are the odds you would manufacturer a different colored front panel that we can buy separately?

Hmm it seems like the whole point of a parametric modeler is that you can go back and make changes without breaking subsequent operations.
