    Hey Will couple tips if you care to hear them. A: don’t give up (I know you won’t)
    B: don’t make assumptions about what is wrong if you can’t prove it
    C: don’t be afraid to sleep on a problem it’s easy to get stuck into thinking the same way about a problem, best of luck!

    Hey Will, the cast iron bushing was wider in the middle to keep the belt in the middle when running. That prevents the belt from wondering from side to side or off the track.

    Hey if you ever have to remove a bronze bushing like that again. Cut a relief line through the entire length with a fine tooth sawsalls blade. Back in the day they used to use brass pins in the bushings to hold them in place from spinning

    Hey Will, I love the channel, been watching for a long time. I have a possible solution for you and this darn equipment. Have you already tried turning it off and back on again? I fix arcades often and that’s a neat little trick that works more often than I’d expect.

  • @JaapGrootveld
    @JaapGrootveld Před rokem

    Thanks for this video, I think you should flatten the head of adam's axel first. Then you have to see if everything is still in line with the hammer. And correct it.
    I have a gut feeling that the giant nut is pulling tings tight to.
    Take off the braken when you are testing.
    Keep your head cool, your doing fine.
    Stay in the moment and do what you have to do. It's great content....

    That rough surface finish? Intended. To keep it in place. Friction. Glad you call it bushings now - sometimes 😊... Yes, I'm picky 😁... Great hammer though, love me some old mechanic tools... It'll bed in. Eventually... Graphite grease may work... Or when desperate on time: valve lapping compound. Leave the springs as is...

    @railfan439 Před rokem +1

    Will, when you were testing it, between 15:20 and15:21 Did I see a double bounce in the mechanism? Went back and looked many times, and yes, there was a double bounce. That could be the cause. Check out the video. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed visiting friends in Gallatin Gateway and Livingston a few years ago. The 80 MPH speed limit in I-90 was a bit scary for me. Thanks for the video.

    Hello Will! Enjoying the content. Saw you went to India and got to do some smithing. I have a connect with a famous family of Balinese kris knife makers in Bali. The kris is sacred to Balinese culture and it is considered bad luck to own one with the incorrect waves (each wave is called a "luk"). I had a kris made for myself and it was a process that involved getting my Balinese astrology and then ceremonies with the smiths as they made it. I think I am perhaps among a very small number of Americans to go through this process. Let me know if you would like to go to Bali and learn and make a traditional kris. Thanks for all the entertaining and educational content!🤓
