Why We Bought a MEGABORE Lathe (… and 5 Things We Use It For!)

In today's video we're spotlighting our big green Gurutzpe MEGABORE Lathe affectionately referred to as "THE HULK". We purchased this 30 year old monster about 8 months ago to help us machine all the drill rods, drill stem and various components for our MEGADRILL project. The Hulk is a Weapon. It came without any manuals or books - and has no real ID plates - so we have no idea how much power it generates... but nothing has come close to stopping it yet! We'll give you a tour of how the big boy works, and then show you the TOP 5 things we use it for. 1) Ripping off metal (obviously) 2) Trepanning (with our shop made tool) 3) Deep Drilling (with a 130mm Kennametal HTS Drill) 4) Deep Boring (with our shop made 70kg / 150lb "TINY" bar) 5) All the random massive stuff that keeps coming in the door! PS: We just hit 20,000 subscribers! A huge thank you to you all - especially those who regularly like, comment on and share our videos. At last count we're reaching over 30 countries and almost every state in the USA! It's so humbling for a little machine shop in the middle of nowhere. I'd like to give a special shout to Karen & Kurtis from @CuttingEdgeEngineering not just for their help in my journey, but also for setting the bar so high. Appreciate you both! About HAL Heavy Duty: We're a real life machine shop for a 60 year old drilling company located in Central Queensland, Australia. Our job is to keep rigs running in the field - fixing all the stuff drillers break and creating all the custom gear they need to get the job done! We run two CNC's, manual repair lathes, a few mills and a big green Megabore Lathe we call "THE HULK"... and are constantly having to make weird and wonderful tools for odd (usually oversize) jobs. We're a little shop that takes on big projects, and the latest is our MEGADRILL project where we're manufacturing a 3.0m (10 foot!) drill bit that'll weigh upward of 20 tonnes and we're getting ready to send it 250m (800+ feet) deep. If you want to catch up on the progress... here's the latest on the project.
