Kurtis BROKE The Big Lathe AGAIN! 😅 | Apron Gear Repair ⚙️🛠

Disaster has struck the CEE workshop! Ever had a machine break down right in the middle of a job? Well, we did! In today's video, we tackle a major mishap on our big lathe – the reverse feed on the lathe carriage is not working! We start by inspecting the lathe's apron and remove the top cover to get a closer look. At first, nothing seems obvious, but upon further investigation by removing the apron cover plate, we discover the culprit: a gear selector fork that's broken in half!
Next up, the fun part: making a new replacement. We use our trusty milling machine and start transforming the metal. It's a bit of a puzzle, but with some careful measuring and a bit of ingenuity, we manage to make a brand-new gear selector. Reassembling the apron is a delicate operation, but we're confident we've got it all back together correctly. The moment of truth: will our big lathe work correctly and be back in action? Tune in to find out!
