- I welded up my own quick attach for my ford 555 backhoe. The quick attach ended up failing and breaking my forks in the process. But i have an idea on how to fix the problem. do you think this will work?

The cameo by Aaron MBTS was priceless 🤣🤣😂🤣
The ghost MTBS bit was clever…..set up well, implemented nicely, and not overdone 💪
Lmao. Adult Movie Voice Over Man aka MBTS appeared like a jedi welders Obi Wan Kenobi.
Remember to use the weave Kleeman, use the weave.
The amps are strong in this one.......
I love it!!!
A video with Aaron in is always excellent no matter how long he is in the shot.
He truly is the man behind the scenes. lol that was great.
🤣🤣 exactly!!
"A little awkward, but the best things in life are" True, very true. The cameo was great too. I think your video and editing skills are as good as your mcguyvering.
Thanks!
Mike, Me and the misses are always entertained with whatever projects you have going on in your busy days! Your abilities astound both of us in what you take on and get completed! We will remain your loyal, consistent, subscribed audience members! Will and Teresa from Chandler, AZ USA!👍🙏🙋♂🙋♀❤
Hey cap't, we're all out here doing the same thing, just one foot in front of the other brother.
For a self taught guy. You're doing great. Your progression is easy to see. Glad Aaron stopped in for a few pointers. Doing is learning.
That welding chair sure was a good investment.
🤣
Hey Mike, it's nice to see the " Kleeman World Headquarters" roof made it through the winter. Love your videos, always look forward to Monday and Thursday.
Well I’m impressed with the very important job you’re doing. Namely being a Dad to those two young ladies. Father -Daughter dances are must do for all of us ( We have 3) blessed to have daughters.
I apologise, this is on a tangent, but the thought keeps occurring to me. Next time you're burning in the woods, put a camera on it for the whole burn. "Fireplace in a box" is one of the videos YT keeps putting up when I pause a video. You could have a "fireplace in the woods" version.
You do great work, Michael. Keep it up.
Engineering, fabrication, welding and phantom MBTS!! Just great!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍀🍀😁
Loved the brief "Angel over the shoulder" cameo by MBTS. Not really sure about the Angel part but sounded good, lol
It don't have to look beautiful to work,hope you have fun at the Daddy daughter dance,something your daughter will never forget!
You have the best humor. Never gets old. MBTS segment was creative.
Nice little cameo with MBtS
💪
The "vision" of Aaron as welding Sensei teaching you was so funny! 🥰You nailed the scene with the editing. 👍
Little improvement at a time. It's a choose your own adventure gotta love it. Great video. Stay safe
That comedian Arron is quite the welder... Point of review from a European welding inspector. Nice video and thumbs up!
The Kleeman Khronikles continue....maybe you should get a little taller chair to put in the 555, help you see over the steering wheel a little better. Casters on the bottom of the slab was genius. Great channel, great content.
Quite the Empire your building
Thanks!
17:16 chuckle, almost souunds like something didnt want you to move. Took some real skill getting those behemouths in and a little luck not ripping off the castors with the forks. MBTS made me laugh, well done. Thank you for sharing
"Whadda ya do if a hose blows while you're taking this off?" Same question occurred to me a couple of days ago, and the answer I came up with was "see how fast you can move while covered in hot hydraulic oil, but most likely, a few days off while in the hospital." Thanks for the video, take care.
Hahaha exactly!
The way you worked MBTS into that scene was hilarious. Way to go my friend.
Thanks!
@@CaptainKleeman 👍
The man behind the scenes cameo was funny 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
🤣
If you bore some holes in the new brackets on top of the forks, they would make handy points to secure ratchet straps or shackles for securing sketchy loads.
Don't know how you operate the loader without a seat! lol. I guess it encourages you to not be in it all day long! Love the videos and love that you share what you do. Keep on keeping on Cap!
MBHS cameo - nice touch.
Nice job Nice tractors good show 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😃
Hi Mike & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Mike & Friends Randy
Your getting really clever with your filming, are you using green screen as I think that's the only way you would have got Mbts there. 🤣😂 Brilliant idea to move the Oak planks, I can see it becoming all the rage. 👍
Aaron: Use the force Mike.
Captain you always find a way to get it done! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Very clever manoeuvring Mike. Well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hi Mike. The host on one of the popular welding channels (can't remember which one) always says "make your next weld better than your last". Sounds like you have that covered. My welding goal is always to stick 2 pieces of metal together so that they don't fall apart. Occasionally, they don't look horrible!
As always,if there is a way , you will find it.on your never ending battle to do what you gotta do to get the job done.great little video.Mike just keep doing your thing.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Great video, have to love the rural life. Your welding is coming along nicely.
Nice to have very good friends 😉💪🤗🇺🇸
Always good stuff from the Captain, the cameo by MBTS was so funny. I’ll just add a ditto to the voltage regulator comments. Keep on keeping on and be safe Captain.
Cap’n, methinks you’ve been channeling MBTS all along. My proof? In case you didn’t notice… he was watching over your shoulder and forgot, for one cameo moment, to invoke his cloaking powers!!!
I have a few ideas about those slabs… I’d like to talk with you, about them, in another year or so when they get dry enough to use?
I’m glad you got the materials gathered up for the YT Yacht sheathing…. Looks like you’ll have it in the dry… just in time for the spring rains to stop!!! Perfect planning bud…
Yeah, life is fickle sometimes
Aaron Bumm...Master Welder!!!
Hello Mike. As good as you are with welding, just a couple of pointers from Aaron is all you need to add that skill to your ever-growing list of hats that you wear. Have good days!
Thanks!
Man behind the scenes clip was hilarious and well set up!
Thank you Mike, always a pleasure.
Hi Mike, I love how you mock your own work though in my opinion ( I’m a tradesman ) your work is superb. Ok, maybe not everything has that factory cosmetic finish but that’s not necessary for heavy duty machinery and you always seem to revisit your projects and want to improve them. Love both your channels, keep being you . Best wishes to you and your family, from Britain 👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
Excellent backhoe parking brake engagement.
Great job and video! Getting ready for the yacht videos! Thanks for sharing! 😊
That's awesome taking your little girl to the daddy daughter dance. And having Lord Muck around was great. Hope you all had a good visit and I think you helped the forks a lot.
Love it Mike! You personality , perseverance and just plain I’ll figure it out and get it done attitude is why I like your videos! And YES your welds are improving! Of course,that’s what happens the more you do things! Anyway, thanks for sharing and taking us all along the journey! Until next time!
Thanks for watching!
👍🏻👍🏻because one is just never enough 🤛🏻🤛🏻
I was wondering the other day what's happening with the new Kleeman HQ building project...and there it was
Progress!!! Check that alternator with the throttle up some next time. Some of the one wire alternators take a decent amount of rpm to start making power.
Thank you for sharing, always a pleasure watch your project 👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
Not saying this video was a let down but, the Gym thumbnail got me really excited about the possibilities of this video. Aaron’s cameo almost made up for it lol
Well it's titled about fixing forks and that was in fact the video...so...🤣
You are a much better welder than me
"And Lord Muck himself" ... gee, I wonder who that is. Great to see Aaron in the mix, nice touch, truly funny.
May need an exciter wire to make the alternator work and some alternators get excited off idle, they won't charge at idle speed. Just some info, love the videos keep up the great work!
Your welding skills have greatly improved
Thanks!
So so good love this MBTS 😀 appearing like OB1 😅 10:16
Mission accomplished brother! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
💪
Good fix! Thumbs up 👍
💪
I agree, your vertical beads are looking pretty good.
Thanks!
Jack of all trades for sure.
Love the use of the yellow handled persuader……
Handiest of tools
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Great to see the fork repair went ok and the supplies and lift are on sight. In reflection I’m trying to decide which was more impressive, MBS making a cameo appearance, you had the opportunity to visit with Lord Muck, or that you can transport a load that wide from the Derby market to your house, without passing anyone going the other way on the incredibly narrow roads you have in your area. The only roads I’ve seen narrower on video are in the UK. Check out the HoofGP, he’s in Ireland and the roads are so narrow I’m sometimes amazed with the speed he drives at while transporting his squeeze chute. They make the aisles in the barns he sets up in appear roomy. 😂 Wishing you and your family the best.
The voltage regulator is what activates the alternator, it regulates the voltage so that $20 part will likely fix it, great videos
MBTS cameo!
Are them whiskers or black zip ties? lol I agree with Stew you need to install that voltage regulator. It will help you in determining if your getting the proper current
Well hey there bud!
Cameo of MBTS - outstanding - Who thought of that? Well at least he was helping a novice welder to improve his technique, even if it was just a dream...
Your own technique with the loader is also improving - you've obviously been watching DP or else his likeness on film, Sorry, that's the history channel. Anyway work is being done with some success, things are looking up, oh sorry that's the man lift. Good show and best wishes from UK.
It’s probably time to pull and push the roof on the HQ building. The wood has had a couple months to recover and move. So you should give her another adjustment.
The roof is where it is until we replace the basement walls.
I was impressed with how easily that oak slab rolled on those tiny hard casters. I thought that they might hand up on a large grain of sand. You called that right.
Another good video thank you see you on the next one
💪
Yes, I think the repairs should work. Your welding skills are getting better. Couple of pointers by Aaron should help.
Love the videos. Especially like your resourceful thinking.
That was awesome with Aaron. 😂
Mike, so was the lift a trade-off? You know, you wear a Dirt Perfect shirt while filming and in return, you get a free lift rental? 👍👍 "Ain't got no time to meeting up!" 😂😂 Love that MBTS cameo (Nice edit)!
Welds are fine Mike! It looks a lot stronger than before brother! Yeah, it’s always a nice day listening to the birds singing! Relaxing! It’s snug but it’ll work some slack into itself as you use it! Grease it for sliding to attach up!
Another nice job Mike, 👍👍.thanks for sharing
Mike, Matt what's in a name Bud!!!
I would recommend replacing the regulator your reading battery voltage at alternator. Regulator should excite the alt to charge.
Your boat house would look good with a small dock and gangway going to it.
Yup, that's why we are doing it.
Nice to see "Jim Naseum" again!
Good stuff there Mike enjoyed the video, you just never know who’s going to sneak up on you anymore. You should’ve put Aaron to work while you had him there.👍🏻
Making good headway Captain Kleeman. 😊😊😊
Thanks!
It was like a scene from ghost (but not)!! 🤣🤣
Excellent! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
Back in the mid seventy I lived in Fargo North Dakota . As an after work income in the spring and the fall some people would have me change thermostats to make their vehicles run warmer or cooler with the seasons.
New thermostats were defective from the start and some would even fail sometimes in within weeks of installation .
That's just one instance of part's that will fail or have short lives .
Thats why there's warrants different levels of products .
You could still have a voltage regulator issue. The alternator will likely have two spade connections (maybe they're studs) plus your main battery connection. If you put 12 volts to both of the spade connections, you should see full alternator output at the battery terminal. That'll tell you if the alternator is good. Do this test momentarily.
Thanks for the update, nice job on reinforcing the fork QD on the ole triple nickel, everyday progress is the key to accomplishing the To do lists, appreciate the video.
hey mike that voltage rectifier/conntroller is what tells the alternator to charge which would explain the 12.2 reading if you put the new one in then it should charge at over 14v loved the video
Will do, thanks man!
You could add those nylon bumper markers like you used to see on trucks to locate bumper corners to locate ends of your implement. Should be able to see from cab.
Looks good from here
Thanks!
Great video thanks Mike
Hey captain have you checked the voltage on the exciter wire going to the alternator, you may be seeing battery voltage at the alternator with it showing 12.2, if you are not supplying voltage the alternator won’t charge.
That's what I was thinking, "he's reading battery voltage ". The alternator is not putting out. I rigged up a momentary switch to turn my 10si alternator on.
That old Ford backhoe may have a generator if it uses an external voltage regulator.
I'll check this. Thanks!
Hi HI Captain. Greetings from Jamaica 🇯🇲. This channel just amazed everything you watched
💪
Good morning Mike!
great video Mike,welds are looking much better and the triple nickel is giving you your moneys worth, thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍
