- In this video we are line boring and bore welding to repair a Caterpillar D10 Dozer push arm. The bushings are oversized so we are welding them up and boring them out to bring them back to size for standard bushings. We are using our Sir Meccanica WS2 portable in-line boring and bore welding machine. First is setting up and tack welding on the bearing mounts for positioning the line boring machine. We need to line bore out the eye material before bore welding to build up new material and then boring out to spec. The job is completed by cleaning up the eye surfaces and cryo freeze shrink fitting the new bushings using liquid nitrogen.

Fantastic video ,well done
Another great video ! 😎🤙
Great news....merchandise👍
Terimakasih anda sangat luar bisa ..kami dari Indonesia selalu support kalian good job..
ANOTHER GREAT video ..was worth staying up for too watch 630 am now ,, I am in the USA .. it comes back to bite you when you cheap out on a repair ,, some times it cost you a lot more then what the cost was in the first place ,,I understand boring before you weld ,, hard to tell how thick the weld is ..also how thick can you add the weld ? did not know if too thick could be weak ? keep up the great videos ,, I have 2 dogs one is a lap dog .i scream a few times when he lands in my lap he has big feet and hits the target ,, lol ..
Your wife does an amazing job of the videos, very smooth, always in focus, and none of the crappy music fillers that other youtubers do. Her editing is top class too, VERY NICELY DONE as always! Oh, the machining is brilliant too. Thanks for posting.
Hey Robert thanks very much mate we both appreciate such a great comment! Guess it shows when someone really enjoys what they do! Cheers
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering you're both doing an amazing job. I loved it, no idea why CZcams sent me here but I'm staying
I agree. The editing is perfect. So many youtubers go over the top with the editing and its a distraction.
I hate like in hate slow-motion shots but these are perfectly timed and executed well done to the editor.
for the machinist well done as well.
Robert, I agree with you, amazing job on the videos, I dislike so many YT videos that feel they need all this crappy music at outrageous volume levels to make their videos better. I came to watch portable line boring, not listen to music.
That bore welding setup is one of the slickest things I've ever seen.
I concur!! I would have thought something like that would be powered by a big lathe, not self sufficient as it is.. pretty cool stuff!!
Incredible tool!
Just short of cheating. Sweet!
Customers , customers ,,,,, in my 50 years in the service business I had one customer on a 5month contract told me from the start , he didn't care how long it took or the cost ,,,,, just do it right . Although I had only one , it made up for all the penny pinchers and cheap scape ,something for nothing dweebs I worked for . Nice job . God bless you and yours .
Yeah we're lucky that we don't have many of those customers, we kind of set standards early on that we won't deal with tightasses, makes for more enjoyable work for sure
Thank you for explaining about some of the measuring. You said on an older video it was boring but it’s not to me. Taking good measurement is an essential part of the job and I’m interested to see how you do it and any tips you are prepared to share. Thanks for all the videos that convey your passion for doing top quality work.
Hey Alan thanks for the great comment and all the support mate we appreciate it! Cheers, Kurtis 😎👍
I love the cut-outs on the end of each vid, and the chemistry between you and your wife behind the camera you can then feel.
Hey mate thanks for watching! Yeah the outtakes are my favourite part hahaa
You forgot to mention the chemistry of the dog.
you mean 'the giggler'?
Yeah: don't get too polished to the point you stop fucking it up every so often.
Is it his wife ???
The person behind the camera you do a great job 🍻
She says Thank you! 😊
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Yes, well done Giggler!
When do we get to meet the real brains behind this operation! 👧 🎥
Love watching this type of work. Thank you so much for taking us all along . Truly AMAZING how you do your job. What will happen now?
Cant forget to give the camera man credit! Every1 always forgets the camera man! PROPS TO THE FAVE WE NEVER SEE. Without you we wouldn’t have any videos!
Your dog just cracks me up - just wants to be loved. The outtake with the dog jumping on your lap was priceless.
hahaa yes he is very needy! Wants all the love and attention he can get
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering With respect, I'd say more spoiled than needy. He is priceless, so is the video.
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering and he should get all the love and attention he needs
Make doggo part of the merch branding?
It makes me smile so much to see how happy Tank is, he loves being around you guys! I also have a little suggestion. When bore welding, I have found that if I take a piece of aluminum and use it as a back plate, it will help build that first corner so you don't need to do touchups afterwards and there is no extra grinding/cutting as the plate just falls off when you're done.
True. It wont stick either. he could do both sided just cut a hole in the center to see what's going on. over size donut plate
Tank ... ? ... what happened to Homeless?
333
I use a piece of copper plate with mine 😊 works very well
That fast-forward of the welding arc glow was beautiful, good filming job :)
Glad you enjoyed it that's just using an iphone 6plus 🤣👍
Top notch team!
Live on a farm here in Texas. This video is fascinating. We run dozers and until now, we’d of done bush mechanics to solve that issue. Amazing to see the right way to fix it. Thank you for sharing it. Keep it up and may Jesus bless y’all.
hey mate thanks for watching over there! 😎👍
im not a machinist, or will ever even work in a shop, but love to learn and see how things are done. i find this really interesting. i had no idea some of those tools even existed. i learn something new everyday, thanks for the vid. and i love the ends of your vids with the bloopers. great work, keep the vids coming.
IT IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE TO SEE THAT YOU DON'T CUT CORNERS AND DOOLDSCHOOL WORK,EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE UP TO THE MOMENT TOOLING!
A REAL CRAFTSMAN CAN DO THE JOB RIGHT, USUALLY FASTER THAN TRYING TO USE SHORTCUTS!
IT IS GREAT TO SEE THAT THERE ARE STILL REAL CRAFTSMAN LEFT,AND IT IS A PLEASURE TO WATCH, LIKE A FINE DANCE ,BALLET!
Don't beat around the bush, 'components are absolute shit', love it. That's the benefit of working for yourself, you can say it as it is. I spent many years in a QA role and often found the bosses didn't always like hearing the truth. Great channel, interesting topics and procedures.
Hey mate yeah you're spot on there. I like to keep it real, i'm an honest asshole hahaa
Oh yeah, the good old aftermarket supplyer, gets you every time when you least expect it.
Investing hours of proper work into it and paying more for parts in the end. Top notch economics 101.
Accurate! You got that right
I've seen similar work done but never seen it done so efficiently your Sir Meccanica WS2 portable in-line boring and bore welding machine is an incredible tool for jobs of that sort.... And clearly you are a talented machinist/fabricator....
I myself am also a "craftsman" I thought that I know all the machines on the planet. But now you come with this lathe and I have to overhaul, I can't do that yet. SO now I know everyone! 🤠
What I wanted to say: I am thrilled with your skills! I come from Germany / BaWü / Rheinhausen and from there I would like to say hello to you.
Jumping up to get a little love from you shows just how affectionate your pit bull is. He's quite a character.
Hahaa yeah he's definitely got a personality, thinks he is human 🤣
Actually it’s not a Pit Bull. He’s a Staffordshire Bull Terrior.
Mate, it is a Staffy. Why does everyone think the pooch is a pit bull?
I thought he was telling him to get out of the chair and get to work.😉
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering haha you gotta make sure your bollocks are safe when they jump up like that 😂
We all know that was nothing to do with a D10, you were just fixing an Australian tooth-pick for your mother-in-law. Great job. Professional work.
how did you know!
you obvious take pride in your work.
i would refuse customers that want to “cheap out” when it comes to bushings.
you’re a pro, keep your standards up at that level.
nice job !!!
The work you do is way out of my league, but I just love anything mechanical. I just get mesmerized by the complexity watching you going your craft, and the tools you come out with are just mind blowing. Your wife is great on the camera.....and Tank, what lovely companion. Love the bloopers at the end.
Keep up the fantastic work team.
Love the sound of metal being cut, just like freshly ground drill bits! You two do a great job! Keep em rolling, out the door!!
Cheers mate will do! Thanks for watching 😎👍
I have learned more from your channel than what i did in my engineering class at CPIT. Great stuff, super informative.
The line boring and welding machine is an amazing bit of kit, just trying to get my head around how the wire feed for the MIG works without the wire getting twisted up! A great job as usual, and another excellent video.
I'm a programmer, not a mechanical engineer or even a machinist although I have built 2 3 axis CNC machines and made a few parts. But this channel is becoming one of my favorites. It's ingenuity and skill, and I like that.
I, for one, appreciate that you show ,on the machine , the part that you are repairing. As usual, thanks!!
Awesome mate thanks for watching
yeah I like that as well, if you didn't then you are just fixing a hunk of metal.
A simple thanks man for taking the time and trouble to make these videos. Learning loads and loving the warts and all approach to how you shoot the footage. Love the "no Bull sh1t" feel and can't wait to see what comes in the door next week.
I.machined Cat reman cylinders and rod eyes every day for many years . I’m retired now , but it was interesting watching your methods . I ran big old vertical mills and engine lathes . It was interesting watching you set up your portable lined boring machine . I did a lot of line boring but I had to bolt everything to mill tables .keep up the good work .
Awesome video! I'm a retired fitter and machinist did my time down at a ship construction and heavy engineering company at Cockatoo island back in the 80s. Saw some massive size bearings sleeves for all sorts of applications. When fitting them back then they would either freeze the sleeve or heat expand the hole, it was said not to do both or the thermal shock can crack the bearing sleeve!
Beautiful work! Hard to believe such a machine is stable let alone precise but you make it look damn easy!
Hey mate thanks for watching yeah pretty amazing bit of gear
CEE I always enjoy the work you do. I worked at the Wynnewood Refinery in Oklahoma in the maintenance shop. I worked on all rotating equipment. Watching this is very satisfying for and old mechinest. We were always building up and turning or boring out for bushings.
Nice one mate thanks for watching glad you enjoyed the vid
Outtakes are one of my favorite parts of the videos Thank you Kertis and wife
Back again for the great repairs done on CZcams 🤗
always interesting to see what rolls through the door to get fixed vs what gets scrapped, I imagine this service is a small fraction of what it would cost to replace the piece if one could even be had. must be nice working on something that is still a circle for once lol.
Yeah you're not wrong mate a new push arm would be about $15-$20K
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering and probably months to get it shipped from America
I love how it starts out clunking on a couple of proud bits of metal then it starts clunking around. Then progresses into a sweet smooth cut.
Max some interesting sounds this one haha
Thank you for giving me a crash course on line boring. I am a farm manager for over 13 years. And in order for me and my wife to live in the same town I'm going for an interview in a week on a possible line boring job. You have taught me allot on only one video today. Thanks and God's speed
You have a lot of knowledge ,skills and great tools. One of the best channels. In this case you put a bushing which has -190 celsius in a metal part which had + 200 degrees and it get stuck and you give it a ' light tap 'with a metal hammer. One end was very cold, the other was heating very fast which cause a lot of metal stress. It was not the bushing quality , it was your mistake in this case. We heat the part and hammer the bushing or liquid nitrogen and pushing by hand. We never do it both and even with the part at ambient temperature and bushing from liquid nitrogen we broke one after a ' light tap'. And it was'nt made in China.
So much respect for your knowledge and true engineering skill. Brilliant videos, thanks.
Very knowledgeable gentleman, taught me a thing or two in this video, much appreciated Sir
Glad to hear it thanks for watching 😎👍
Thanks for the details related to your final measurements and the tool setting process.
Kudos to wife for the great camera work .
this guy is a shop expert......does everthing......
I am thrilled to see this channel gain such momentum the past few months. Keep at it, man!
Thank the Mrs. for the midweek video. A interesting surprise
Hey Dan sure thing mate she says very welcome 😊
The flash backs when that bush locked up....I had a bronze bush lock up on me doing a re bush for a Hitachi 5500 stick, was reaching for the sledgy as quick as I could, learned the spin as it slides technique that day. Killer setup mate loving the vids you guys knock out!
We had a Boxer X Retriever very like a Staffy on Steroids, she used to go to work with me, and like your Doogie, loved attention, and tried to be a lap dog, not long since I found your channel and love your Doogie, stay safe and well.
You're good craftsman! but i'm here for the dog. its sweet.
He's much better looking than me haha
Great vid, have never actually seen that done before. Labour intensive with specialized equipment.
Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching
I gotta say Homey is really cute! He doesn't appear to drool like every other Pit Bull I've known. If I could find a no drool Pit Bull, I think I'd like one! Beautiful dogs!
Excelente profissional! Ótimo trabalho! Bravo!
There's two tools I never knew existed before today! Thanks, I was wondering how you were going to get that 'arm' on a mill... WOW, you Guys!
Hey mate glad you got to see it in action! 😎👍
Another cool clip from you guys. Awesome to see Homey still has a whole tail too.
Hey Craig thanks for watching mate. Tail docking dogs is actually illegal here in Australia
Well done...back in early 80's when I worked for CAT, we had to weld those by hand with 7018 rods...very smooth tooling.
I’m not a machinist,I’m a retired aircraft mechanic,but I’m fascinated with these videos. Amazing ingenuity and skill level. I love Blue Collar jobs like this. This kind of work is something creative that at the end of the day you can actually say you accomplished something. Not everybody has what it takes to do this.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This video took me back to 1987 when my job was to assemble, install, and line bore the nose gear kneel stop assembly of the C-5 Galaxy. Once the cutters were started, I wasn't allowed to stop, or backup. I had to catch the liquid Boelube, and the Beryllium Copper shavings in a sealed container, and call the hazmat crew for disposal. Turns out it was low level radioactive, and highly toxic.
Good video, love the safety inspector.
Hey Jim thanks mate 😎👍
What have we learnt here Kurtis? Never let the customer supply anything except the part being repaired!
I've had to do line boring from time to time at my machinist job. It is remarkably difficult to find any of the trucks of the trade without working under someone who already has been doing it. Thanks for sharing the vids!
Hey mate thanks for taking time to watch. 😎👍
Wow! What an amazing display of skill and custom machinery! Thanks for sharing your work with these videos.
When you buy good stuff, you complain once about the price.

Just found this channel, as a fitter & turner by trade I can watch this stuff all day. Just amazing how technology has changed, so much easier now than in the seventies.
Keep up the videos
I have been in the Machining and Welding trade a long time. I took leave from it for like 20 years it's incredible the Machinery they have nowadays to do this line boring. Must have been expensive but worth its weight in gold. Back in the old days we would have cut that out with a torch rough cut of course then we would have had to put it up on our milling machine and that's one heavy piece to deal with. Then we would have had to hand weld all of that always putting more in that we needed to make sure we could get a clean up cut of a proper dimension voice mail holidays. And then obviously we would have to put it back up on her milling machine and bore it to the proper size. Which would have taken probably 10 times as long as it took you to do an even better job that machine is simply incredible God bless you all. Again you did an excellent job I truly miss being a welder Machinist I may be heading back towards that trade.
That's really frustrating. I can't imagine saving on a bushing with a job like that. Thanks for another great video. The camera work is superb, too.
Hey Bruce! Yeah it's interesting the decisions some customers make, hopefully they will learn for next time. Cheers, Kurtis
In the forklift industry we have the dreaded TVH/Total source for all forklift parts - absolute rubbish parts but they have no competition other than the oem so everybody uses them.
Only company I know where the new pins and bushes you fit have more play in them than the worn ones you took out 😂. Either that the pins are so tight that in the field you have to spend an hour each pin polishing them down with emery cloth.
The joys of shit parts.
Right!?! The first shop bores out the bushing so you pay another shop CEE to do it more properly, then bust out on parts??? I get the desire to keep one part on the job site but cheap parts are never cheap.
Have the same with electrical materials, client says “I’ll provide all the gear you just install it” so I’m there for at least twice as long as I should be!
*sigh* that's when they get charged an asshole tax 🤣
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering They sure do, still only another year or so and I’m done with it all!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering now that's funny, I used to charge aggravation surcharge for butthole customers in the photography business,,,,cheers Kurtis, PB in USA
I can't tell you how many times I have been through dealing with managers and such handing me cheaper or off brand replacement parts and wondering why stuff fails soon after installation. I hope the asshole tax is high enough.
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering I Call it a PITA fee. A Pain In The Ass Fee..
Hey i Hope you will see this, im from France and you are an inspiration, and you are one of the people who make me want to start my company ☺️
I had never seen welding done in such a way. Amazing work!
EVERY dog is a lap dog - even my wife's 240 pound Rottie Mastiff mix - lol

Love that dog!
One day that tail gonna wag right off its mount.
Nice to see modern technology at work. I spent 20+ years welding up bores and line boring the hard way.
I love all the high precision solid metal equipment he has. I have no doubt it all came at considerable cost too.
Another really great made video . I have done a lot of shrink fits during my career , nut I am fascinated by your use of the nitrogen cooling. Is it expensive? That is the reason we used to get on request, opting for dry ice on occasion. Enjoyed , cheers!
Hey Curtis. thanks for a great channel. love your work! I have a question if i may. when you weld your line boring bearings to the job, if MiG wasn't an option, what arc rods would you use? especially with dissimilar metals, IE cast vs mild etc?
Thanks and keep up the great work.
I am not a machinist, but really enjoy your channel and learn alot from you.
Your pup is awesome!!
It is good to see someone using their brain to complete a product that is well done and save money doing it, more important you have a happy customer that will keep you. Thanks for showing us " how to". Great job and i love the dog ,keep the chips out of his paws.
Yes, how DO you keep the swarf out of his paws?
I know you have a magnetic sweeper, but even so it's easy to miss some!

I love ho honest you are about some of this components 😂
keeping it real 😎👍
The one who actually disliked the video probably works for the bushing supplier or the client🤣🤣
I admire your machining skills great work, I can only wish to have some of the machining tools you have in my shop. And I work for the US navy. Cheers all the way from guam.
Hey mate thanks for watching from there!
I had never heard of line boring or bore welding! I work in a machine shop and I have seen spray welding and turning but so far never boring

Can you explain how the machine advance the boring bar?
What is the machine maximum stroke?
BTW for sometime I try to understand what is your name, you swallow it, I think I got Scott, am I correct? 😄😄😄
Hey thanks for always watching. We will do an upcoming video explaining exactly how the machine works with the drive system, maximum machine stroke is 200mm but it can be an indefinite feed if you have a long enough bar haha My name is Kurtis, I have a look alike named Scott Eastwood 🤣

@@CuttingEdgeEngineering No way I would have put that hammer hit on the video. The hammer is not an engineering tool, next you will be using an adjustable spanner... Keep that shit hidden.
@@cuckingfunt9353 what if it's a shop made copper forged and machined hammer? 🤔🤣
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Was it ? OK. Probably part broke because cold, it didn't look like you hit it hard anyhow. What I meant was, we all break out the hammer, just not in front of the customer. I can see you had to move fast before it got stuck. Thanks for answering, I don't know how do you find the time.
Great video, is the welding head a specialist piece, how does it deal with rotating the electrode ,gas pipe and conductor inside the bore?. Also do you ever need coolant mist or flood on the cutter. Have a good day from Ireland !
Hey mate there is a rotary joint between the welding lance and cable so only the lance rotates. No doesn't need coolant they're a carbide insert so can be run hot/dry, Cheers
Wow this whole process is new to me.
You are one talented man.
Never seen it done this way before.pretty cool
That line boring tool/fixtures/system is an awesome bit of kit. So I google it... Meccanica WS2... £20k, geewiz! It's got to cut a fair few holes to pay for itself. Blows my head off people will aim to save a few quid on bushes on a job that's going to run into massive labour and transport costs like this. Love your videos, makes a great channel, fantastic to peek inside your industry.

awesome process. thank you for sharing!
