Video Description

Today we're replacing the speed handle on the PM935 milling machine with a steering wheel. This makes the quill feed much easier to use and it's never in the wrong position. We'll 3D print a prototype hub adapter, test it, and then make a new one on the lathe. We'll also slot a keyway on the mill. Fun times! This is the steering wheel I purchased: *This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated 3-Spoke Aluminum Steering Wheel (eBay*): https://ebay.us/iHLTT6 Tools used in this video: *This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated Quill Speed Handle for PM935 (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3jF0XOz Quill Speed Handle for PM935 (eBay*): https://ebay.us/JJa6cl Bondhus Metric Hex Key Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3eqZzwb Bondhus SAE Hex Key Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3h9bJLZ Aventor 8" DPS IP54 Caliper (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3KNwWaV Screw Chek'r Metric 2mm-7mm (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3YF88qQ Screw Chek'r Metric 8mm-14mm (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3ZBTXED Screw Chek'r SAE/Inch (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3Jt5b7B R QIDI Technology Amazon Store*: https://amzn.to/3rQqhVn QIDI Tech PA12-CF Carbon Fiber Nylon (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3LylGyL YG-1 1/4" 120 degree spotting drill (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3sVSLgv Chicago Latrobe HSS Short Letter Drill Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/2PWx0dL Chicago Latrobe HSS Short Number Drill Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/2Qgss0S Chicago Latrobe HSS Short Fractional Drill Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3mkmziD Shars 3-Point Internal Micrometers (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3RqkNuc Edge Technology Clamp Indicator Holder (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3MImlhf Shars .0005" dial test indicator (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/3lo3Stq Wera Kraftform Screwdriver Set (Amazon*): https://amzn.to/2UzK6CL Raw Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ 00:00 Intro 00:38 The problem with speed handles 03:41 Designing the hub in Fusion 360 06:37 3D Printed prototype 07:29 Testing the prototype 09:00 Making an aluminum hub 17:43 Drilling and tapping 21:32 Shaping the keyway on the mill 25:09 Final installation and testing 27:21 Conclusions
