A much improved video, no music and speech is fine. You can't help background noise and it doesn't intrude much. I enjoy repair videos watching something that a lot of people would scrap come back to life as a useful object. Can't wait for part two.
Totally agree!
I like your acknowledgement of ICWeld, he is a master with the torch
Between all these videos of fake restaurations and repairs, your videos sir are the real deal. I love it. Please keep making them.
Thanks! Will do 👍🏻
@@snowballengineering that's great to hear, greetings from Germany
Awesome. Music is not mandatory and your explanations are nice. Continue like that!
Will do! Thanks for watching
Agree 100%
Yes Issac is quite the artist with a torch
Tipping over the bucket without it falling over was very skillful! you are very good at what you do yes watch all your videos and am very impressed!! keep up the good work!! Greetings from Sweden 🥳
i do prefer just the shop noises to music most of the time . that drill press is a beast
It’s a big old girl, weighs about 4tonne
You're doin' all right mate. No bullshit, no head bangin' racket and we get to hear the bloody machines.
I C Weld guy is a true artist with a gas axe , the best I have ever seen . glad some one else watches and appreciates him !
Just stumbled across your channel this evening and so far really enjoying it! Can hear you loud and clear, a busy shop isn’t quiet by the way😉 keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoy it!
Clear as ice. Loud enough. Your Hyster really moves along lad.
Had never heard of a "Magic Eye Cutter" but boy, what a machine that is. Draw something up on card and hey presto, the tilly lamp wanders up and down the drawing whilst the torch does it's biz.. Just love watching these videos and thoroughly enjoy seeing a skilled fabricator so focused on getting it right and on price..
Your torch cutting looks perfectly good to my eye and I bet Issac would agree with me.
8:30 Sir... we all could. I'm above average with a torch. Issac makes me look like I lit my first torch yesterday. That man is a machine. At least I can weld as good... but his torch skills are something.
You are ok, doing a hard work there. The world is full of uniq ppl, some of us can hear well, i can lift weight, so do what you are thinking is ok for you. Anyway, you are not a studio movie maker, you are a working man in first place, so thank you for your time and effort done filming this. Maybe many are comparing with other channels where they are doing "fake jobs" only to have what to film and having allready a script and $$$ in video/audio equipment. You are doing great 👍
Thank you!
Can hear you fine mate , good vid 👍
Awesome, thank you!
Thoroughly enjoyed. So much better without the backing track. Volume much better. No problem hearing you are North of Watford as us Southerners say. Then I did get that bit before. Project is interesting. Trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear is never easy. But you are well on the way. Looking forward to part 2.
There are probably a fair number of folks who can do the work, but figuring out what to do, how to do it and then doing it well that is another thing. You are a rare tradesman in today's world, and I hope your customers appreciate your level of skill in so many areas. Great work and a pleasure to watch!
Yes, knowing how to tackle the job takes some thinking about sometimes.
Thanks!
icweld certainly knows his stuff when it comes ti using the gas torch and he has a very dry sense of humor 🤣. You're getting a really interesting channel started Oliver 👍👍👍.
Yes I can hear you fine & I really enjoy repair videos like yours. I can't wait for your next Video / Video's.
Appreciate the benefit of your thinking about process / order of operations - well done ! Now, Isaac and his torch - sets a high bar that man. One thing I’ve noticed and adopted myself is his habit of going through the full motion of the cut in advance to check hand and torch positioning - definitely eliminates / reduces potential tight spots and “unforced errors”. Maybe basic stuff, but has helped me quite a bit.
He has incredible skill! It always seems to go a lot smoother in practice when the torch isn’t lit. 😅
Isaac is definitely the torch man we all should aspire to be!
Great video! I like the "no music".
Easy to hear you this week and music definitely not required. 🙂🙂
A good channel. Although I am retired I come from an engineering background and enjoy your videos.
Hear you fine. Great job love watching and maybe stealing an idea or two. Keep up the good work. Elkhart, Texas
Thanks 👍
Hear you loud and clear😊
Great video. Appreciated your explaining and rationale throughout.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yup, I can hear you perfectly. Great channel...! Cheers from Canada...
Awesome video mate !
I prefer without the music .
I like hearing your thoughts on setup and behind your decisions. Keep up the great work I'm subscribed for sure 😊
Thanks, will do!
Good start to your bucket repair. Amazes me how people just do repair and then cannot get access for the pin maintenance later on. I liked the bit about ic weld made me laugh. He did a repair on a cat 360 digger arm. He bevelled a piece of plate and said clean it with grinder or maybe not. It was cut so clean it didn't need any grinding. He is God's gift to torch cutting and more. You deserve the work you are getting no cutting corners with you very good honest repairs. Look forward to part two thanks ruth.
He is the man! Thanks for watching 😁
Brilliant Videos. Watched the lot tonight, cant wait for next instalment. Much better without the loud music. 10/10 for the work your doing.
Thanks!
Quilty work man, great video, keep'um coming. .
Your delivery is excellent. Sound is great. You get better cuts in 30mm metal than I can do in 9 mm ply!
I thought this video was excellent, interesting content, and explained well (I don't know this difference between a welding helmet and a profile cutter). The audio is perfect. Keep 'em coming.
Great Video, keep up the great work
Yep, much better w/o the music. Audio is improving.
You're right about Isaac and flame cutting. He makes it look so easy! Those Pakistani videos have some torch masters, too.
I hope that on occasion, you get an easy repair to make up for these boogers!
He does make it look easy! It’s not that often I use a torch, just so happens that when I decided to make a CZcams channel the first few jobs have all needed one 😅 Yeah them boys have some skill but not always the equipment.
I like to watch professionals work so thanks for your videos .
Interesting and well presented content.
I can hear you lound and clear now. Love your "magic eye" line following cutter, low tech but cuts out the CAD expense. Thanks for sharing.
Old but still very useful. I have a cnc machine as well but it won’t cut thick enough for this job. Thanks for watching.
Your machine torch cuts look very good. Suggest increasing your travel speed maybe 10%. Watch the edge for excess melting. Increase speed until the edge looks crisper. Running the around the plate first with the flame lit but not cutting will give a bit of preheat and pop off some of the scale and rust. The line burner has some serious leakage around the base of the tip. Thinking you are not using the correct tip for the torch.
Thanks. Great vid. Liked your commentary and could here u just fine.
Great video! Looking forward to Pt. 2! ---Mike
Thanks! Part 2 already up 👍🏻
You are doing great job,and your filming is right on,many thanks
Thanks!
You do get a good variety of work, some of it is bound to be repetitive, but you cope very well with the different projects. I used to prefer to work alone and I did loads of field/off site work all over UK, Europe and USA. Wherever I went I found that engineers were very helpful and friendly, which helps. Good job off to see part 2. 👍
Your channel is 👍🏻🇬🇧
video and sound was excellent! 👍👍
Excellent work.
Hear you great. Thanks so much. You are an artist for sure.
Just perfect!
Fantastic video mate! Smart and skilled man! You will be one of my regular CZcamsrs from now on. Can’t wait for the workshop tour!
Thanks for watching! Will have to have a good tidy up before any workshop tour 😅
Nice job 👍. No problem hearing you.
Great job. Cheers.
Can hear you great! Good video, like your explanation and you use of varied pieces of equipment.
Great video and really good to hear your thinking behind the repair process. Thanks for dropping the music now subscribed.
Thanks!
Your content is enjoyed and appreciated, thank you.
I appreciate that!
Great video, I have enjoyed all of them so far but this one is a big step up.
Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Thanks for watching!
Hear you fine. Interesting torch machine...you mentioned ICWELD..he would love it. I am an amateur and your explanations are very good lessons for me.
Great video man and I can hear you just fine. I like what you're doing and admire your skills at fixing things as rough shape as that bucket lol that thing is in bad shape for sure. But like you said it wasn't built properly in the first place.
Nice job. Looking forward to the next video
Coming soon!
Just "discovered" your channel and most impressed with your approach and limited amount of equipment compared to some that still can't turn out an acceptable job if they had access to RRoyces workshops. You are the third I have subscribed to now and look forward to future productions. Very pleased to have someone from UK on my fav's list.
Thanks Alan!
Great video mate, watching from the land down under 🇦🇺🍻
Decent looking repair and a couple of your torches have the same "pilot light" feature as mine !
That the quick reflex “pilot light”?
Awesome videos and very nice work keep them coming I’ll keep watching
Thanks!
good vid ty
Good vid,I was entertained.
Great video
☹🇬🇧
Great vidios , all very interesting to watch, thankyou for making them .
I notice your having trouble doing your weld prep bevels with the straight line " quicky"cutter, would it work better if you converted the head to hold your freehand plasma torch, it might be worth a try , anything is better than endless grinding on thick plate.
Great video my friend content was good loved that cutting machine not seen that before
Regards
Steve UK London
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Your doing great keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
An Old Koike IK72 track torch. I have one of those things, keeps soldering along for some reason! I just recently found your channel. I like what you are doing. (I am a repair guy as well, mostly portable line boring, welding and light machine work. No you tube channel though, only IG) Anyway I like your optical profile cutter as well. Looks like you have a nice set up for repair work. I willl have a look at your other vids too, the shop made line boring rig looks very promising. Cheers
Hi! I am a Snowball too! Love watching these videos (as well as CEE) Keep it going Mate! Live in Australia but from Sunderland.
Hello fellow Snowball! Thanks for watching!
Three observations Always preheat. run the flame across the steel at cutting speed without cutting oxygen on.
Try a 1/8 nozzle for cutting out bent parts and bevel cutting by hand.
Bolt a 1” plywood board 18”x18” to the drill press.
I’m impressed by the kit & workshop you have. How did you come by it all. Inherited? Purchase ? I hope you change enough. I enjoyed the work but was also under paid & taken for granted. I moved to FE welding lecturer . Do something about the seating nozzle flame it can cause over heating problems.
Thanks for the tips.
I’ve purchased everything myself. My budget isn’t huge though hence why it’s mostly older gear.
👍enjoyed the video, sound was good and you explained the work good 👍
Your magic eye cutting machine torch was great , I’ve never seen something like that . Do you know what year it was made . Thanks.
1979 I think.
Been binge watching your videos and everything i've seen so far you repair and build stuff better than original. Keep up the great work and videos. Perhaps you you do one on how you sharpen your tools as they always seem to get loads of views.
His is the only channel I have ever binge watched. He just keeps getting better and better with each new video.
Major repair on a toe tip bucket. Par no music is great thanks
Sucks the music is gone but still will keep watching your vids!
The music is back just not at loud.
Great without the music, speach is fine, content is excellent. Thanks.
It's great that it provides you with work, but with so much damage, I have to wonder at what point it becomes cheaper just to get new one.
New ones are very expensive
💯💯
Yes Isaac @icweld is a brain surgeon with the torch, he also has a tip to see your chalk line better, and that is to spray it with WD40 before you cut 😊
I did see that but never thought to try it yet. My glasses are a bit too dark as well which doesn’t help.
Your fast-motion bit with the forklift sounds a lot like one of the screaming goats. You know the one.
👍
The audio is much better, the wife has stopped rolling her eyes when the music would suddenly start.
You should preheat the part quite a lot before cutting! Will make for much neater and more consistent cut! But tbh they look good! Nothing a grinder can’t fix
I’m too impatient to preheat before cutting 🤣
Why do you not use a pneumatic needle scaler like I C Weld, great videos BTW. 🙄Ignore me I see you use one in part 2 😁
Well done there I would have sent that bucket for scrap
Because new ones are so expensive it makes it worth while repairing the old ones.
What brand is your torch?
You may have gotten cutting tips from I.C.,but you burn from the top down (the preferred method) and you gouge with a continuous feed of the carbon. Not his dip and dab method. Didn't see if you place the carbon into the torch bare end first which he does incorrectly .jolly good show.!!!
much better not into the music enjoy the explanations and how you work the job out, also the little comments you make. thanks
U are doing good work keep it up do u work on the farm as well
Sometimes
When you say you have a limited budget, do you quote those jobs. I would have thought that the client would want to have this job fixed properly.
your voice volume is very low compared to the background noise, maybe one of those shirt collar microphones, otherwise great job.👍👍👍
In your opinion did Alan Turing get a fair deal from the English gov.?
Great video's. At what point do you tell a customer that you can only polish a turd so much
If your cuts look like a beaver with one bad tooth gnaw it rest your hands like I.C.! Notice he'll even use a clamp for a rest sometimes. Remember, you can't cut smoothly if you're shaking like a dog crapping on a briar bush!!!
Nice to see you using marketplace. It’s one way of accumulating ‘stuff’ or as my calls it; shit. 🧐
I don't know if others have my problem with music on CZcams, but for me, every time the dialog stops for a few seconds on all videos, YT cranks the music up full power and nearly blasts me out of my chair. I'm at the point where I keep the pointer on the volume bar and switch back and forth, which is a real PIA. You bet....leave it off.....don't need it.
How about getting a striker instead of using a lighter,save those pinkies!
Yes, I need to
You're to late: icweld already has an apprentice.
Be a long way to work on a morning as well 🤣
@@snowballengineering may be ic weld can learn to work with your magic eyes!
cutting edge engineering does the same thing, but only better ???
Yes, he’s a lot more experienced than me.
@@snowballengineering he's not an any better engineer, but his youtube video's are well done by his wife ???
I only started making CZcams videos just before Christmas with no previous experience of video editing so it’s been a learning curve.
he has his wife doing all the cutting and editing very well, they have the time to do it properly, your show is good i enjoyed it, thanks !!!
