You can make an entire machine shop worth of power machine tools, using basic hardware store/home center supplies and scrap metal. Melt aluminum in a metal-pail furnace, using sand, charcoal, and a clay flowerpot! Cast sophisticated metal tool parts using supplies from a gardening shop and modified kitty litter! End up with a full machine-shop lathe ('the only tool capable of making any OTHER machine-shop tool, including itself!' ) for just the cost of your time, some scrap steel and aluminum, and a motor! OK - we're (well, I'm - but we're using the imperial 'we') making a lathe. Like, for machining metal.
Out of melted beer cans, in a flowerpot in a trashcan full of sand. As the great Dave Barry said: 'I am not making this up.' Well, as the immortal John Belushi said: (loud belch). Our Good Book is the Orange Book of St. Gingery - also known as 'The Metal Lathe', by the late Dave Gingery. This handy pamphlet-ish book, the 2nd of a series of 7, has step-by-step instructions for folks wanting to build a lathe from scratch. Many folks around the world have built or are building 'the Gingery lathe' -- there's an entire newsgroup on Yahoo dedicated to 'Gingery machines', as well as a ton of websites.
Policewala gunda film mp3 song download. I'm putting together pictures, notes, and so on, to help others on this sacred journey -- and for a few friends who think I'm nuts (but secretly wish they could do this if only their wives would let them, and if they thought they could get away with it without burning their. The books are available at Lindsay Books' website, and/or at Amazon, Barnes & Noble.com, etc.
Build a Metal Lathe, Drill, and Milling Machine Make: Make a metal lathe, drill, and milling machine with scrap, steel bar, and concrete. Basic tools will be all you need to get started.

Check out: for the main series. This is how the project works: (a) You make 'patterns' of the parts, out of easy-to-work stuff like wood (pine is good), plywood, hardboard (the dark brown stuff that lots of pegboard and 1950s elementary-school fixtures are made of), etc.
(b) You make molds in sand, with a few other ingredients; melt metal (easier than it seems, and DARN good fun!); and pour the molten metal into the mold cavity. And, (c) you combine the parts you make, with a few bits of steel, machine bolts, and such, from the local home center or hardware store. Tools needed are simple: while a drill press is VERY helpful, the plans are designed around simple tools like a power hand drill, a few threading taps (not too hard to borrow, or fairly inexpensive at the local home center/hardware shop), etc. The most important thing, imho: you'll learn a LOT about Making Things -- metal casting, machine tools, parts, tolerances, etc. -- it's a thrilling learning process! And - when you're done - you'll have the core component of a fully functional machine shop! A few thoughts, tips, pointers.
First of all, there's an excellent Yahoo! Group devoted just to the Gingery books, machines, etc. You should definitely check out the Lindsay books (see link in step #1), and the Yahoo group: There's a TON of good information and suggestions on the group. Some of the more popular ones seem to be: make the ways (a slab of 1/4' x 3' cold-rolled steel, on which the carriage (the main cutting-tool holder assembly) rides) thicker and thus sturdier; secure the ways to the bed with many more fasteners; and use a modified tool-post/toolholder. There are designs, photos, corrections, bills of materials, etc. (I'll try to add much of that information here, as I'm able.) Secondly - the Gingery method mostly assumes using scrap aluminum.
A few things I've learned: (A) 'Can you use beer/soda cans?' This is often referred to as 'beercanium', or some similar funny term. The concensus I've seen, and have experimentally verified, is this: you can't really use JUST beer cans -- aluminum exposed to air instantly develops a thin layer of aluminum oxide (for fun, this is also. In crystalline form, basically ruby!). Beer cans are thin, with lots of surface area, so melting beer/soda cans alone just doesn't really work well (especially since melting tends to produce MORE oxidation.
HOWEVER -- if you melt some aluminum, such as window frames, pistons, etc. -- and THEN drop in some well-crushed and dried beer/soda cans, they'll contribute to the mix just fine. SAFETY NOTE: if there's ANY moisture left in the cans, you are probably going to witness a SPECTACULAR explosion several milliseconds before losing your vision permanently. I'm not an expert, and if you follow my instructions, you'll probably DIE, be seriously maimed, or end up on some very, very pernicious mailing lists -- do NOT take ANYthing I say as anything other than potentially *very* dangerous activities. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
