Repair DAMAGED Mining Truck Cylinder Barrel | Part 1 | Machining & Welding
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 08. 2022
- You won’t believe what damaged the inside of this barrel! This video is part 1 of a job to repair a damaged hydraulic cylinder barrel from a mining truck. This is the hoist cylinder barrel off a Caterpillar 785 Haul Truck, the cylinder helps to lift and lower the body when dumping out the payload. Something has failed and caused big scratches and gouging on inside of the barrel, so we need to replace the main part of the barrel! In this Part 1 we show step by step to disassemble the damaged barrel by machining off the barrel end and the head flange. We also fit and weld the head flange to the new barrel using spray transfer MIG welding.

Sorry it's another 2 part video 🙈 We're not big fans of videos broken up into parts but with bigger jobs like this (and while we have so much other work on) it's keeping our stress levels down and giving us some extra time to get video & editing done 😅 Hope you can understand and still enjoy the video! 😎👍

Keep the great work going 👍
👍🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏼😀😀
Nothing wrong with two parts, if we can get one we can get the other.
Where is part two of the riser block!
I recently discovered this channel and absolutely love it.
The high quality of work carried out along with the titles and information is great.
Kurtis is like a 34 year old with 75 years worth of engineering experience
Karen gives this channel it's well presented and flawlessly edited footage which is out of this world.
Maybe a karen feature with her talking through her camera equipment and insight into her amazing media content creation skills
It's a metric channel and not Banana's
Keep up the amazing work 👏
Big love from the UK 🇬🇧
I've never minded YOUR 2 part videos as there is never any wasted content: everything posted is important and worth watching. Karen's superb editing skills deserve every praise I can think of!
Annnnnd lets all not forget the antics of Homey, aka Homeless.
The only issue i have is having to wait a full week for the next episode lol. I want it immediately 🤣. But alas i must be patient.
@@cattey5428 Look for the video where they announced their merch store; that's where they talk about "Homey". He's far from being a "vicious dog".
Please stop worshipping CZcamsrs
@@6Diego1Diego9 I don't see how acknowledging and praising good craftsmanship is in any way comparable to "Worship".
I’ve been a welder for 30 years and I am still amazed at what you manage to pull off as a one man operation. Great videos.
What ya mean 1 man operation? It’s his wife that does all when she not holding the camera lol 😂
It all in the safety officer
He is lucky enough to have that kind of a supportive wife she did a lot of work behind the scenes
Definitely the safety officer keeping him right
Imagine how amazed a welder of 0 years is, like me!. It's like watching David Blaine do magic lol
I suspect I got introduced to this channel because I watch IC Weld's videos a lot. Really loving the similar mixture of quirkiness, professionalism, exceptional skill, well-placed jokes and fixing up of a lot of heavy machinery.
Don't sweat the two-parters, it's good to give these topics the space they require, plus I'm already astounded at how much effort the two of you are putting into making Kurtis look at his best, as evidenced by the outtakes at the end. And I agree that Kurtis is more obsessed with making sure his hat is aligned properly than us in the audience would care :)
I like the sideways hat thingy.
Same! My love of IC Weld made the algorithm send me here. For once, I thank the bot!
This guy knows his stuff and it shows in the confidence with which he explains what happened, why it happened and how he's going to go about fixing it. His love for what he does is evident in his work. If I was into heavy machinery, I would definitely be a client.
Gday Kurtis and Karen, thanks very much for the shout out and I’m glad the oil pot arrived and still had the shine, you had a good score with the steady rest but I don’t think I’d like to be the poor bugger that transported the lathe when It fall off, I’m looking forward to see the hone in action again, awesome job as always mate and thanks again, cheers
Here is Mattys channel:️ czcams.com/users/Matty%E2%80%99sWorkshop
Hey mate the shout out is well deserved always happy to support and your oil pot is top shelf thanks again for sending it to us, whoever wins one will be very lucky. Cheers 😎👍
I have seen people loose a refrigerator before but never a lathe .. I have hauled 2 so far different times for my self small ones a LOGAN and a Southbend ,, had enough straps on them that could have done 2 or 3 lathes ..better to be safe then sorry ..
@@randytravis3998 Cowboy transport, thinking a 3 ton lathe is going to be fine, using the straps they have used for the last decade or three to move fridges, and then making a turn at 60.
Speaking of things falling off trucks. A few months ago a construction company was doing some sewer and water work next to our shop and their skid steer was stolen overnight. They came by that morning and asked if our security camera had any footage of the theft, but we didn't. About a week later the guy came back to tell us that he had to turn our water off for a few hours and I asked if they had heard anything about their machine. Apparently the idiots that stole it never tied it down to their trailer and it fell off on the highway about 400 miles from here. Despite falling off at highway speeds it suffered no serious damage. While the thieves were trying to recover it the cops came along and soon figured out what happened. The three were arrested and the skid steer was returned to the construction company. These clowns were trying to take the skid steer to southern Ontario down the Trans-Canada highway, a journey of perhaps 1300 miles. They would have had to go through multiple weigh stations where the lack of tie downs would have been discovered. I guess they forgot to steal some ratchet straps. Ken
@@hmw-ms3tx Had to get some machinery moved a few years ago, and the hardest part was the first 50m, because it needed to be somewhat dismantled, and then moved down 2 floors to the truck. Luckily it fitted the lift with an inch to spare.
The tank before it went out, after it had a 20 minute session with a massive plasma cutter, turning it into plates, as the original method it used to get there had involved removing windows, and a mobile crane. Took longer to connect and disconnect the plasma cutter to power and air than it took to do the job, turning the tank into pieces that would fit through the doors, and also be easy to carry.
Scrap value of the stainless steel tank was a lot less than the cost of just removing the window, and also the access for the crane was going to be a lot harder, as the interim period had seen building work occur there, so you would need a much bigger, long reach crane. Borrowed the plasma cutter and FIL to operate it from his work, he took a lunch that day, and actually left the shop.
Love the clock in the background detail... It emphasizes the concept of actually how much time these tasks take. Excellent job and great production as usual!
Yea me too, I don't weld myself but I enjoy understanding the time that is put in.
It’s not all about the machine work. Kurtis gives explanations like a teacher. Videos add much. Thank you for posting. Steve
Top Shelf CEE Again. Your knowledge sharing to others is something to be proud of. Without people like CEE, our future expertise in engineering would be
frightening. Well done CEE.
Checking in from Wisconsin! I don’t care if it’s one part, two part, or twenty parts. I know I’m in for a good video either way 👍
Thanks mate! We appreciate that
MN here.
@@nimaj6221 their pinned comment literally explains it. Quality > quantity
@@nimaj6221 see ya 👋
@@nimaj6221 Your loss.
There is always one person who gets overlooked, and that is the person behind the camera.
Karen, I would like to praise you for the great work you do as producer, director, sound engineer and the great work at the editing table, and last but not least your good humor with a sometimes difficult performer in front of the camera who has not always read the script, or have a poor memory. 😜
Ok, if it absolutely has to be mentioned, Curtis you are doing a great job as well.😄
Best regards from Denmark.
I've watched a good amount of these videos, and they still have the ability to blow my mind from time to time. When he heated the barrel up and the eye cap just fell out.... Impressed me enough to say "No way" out loud. To myself. At 2am.
Then the fit up of the head to the tube while on the lathe was just awesome.
Might be normal day to day stuff for machinists, but for a normal guy, it's pretty fun to learn new things.
Nothing wrong with multipart videos, as long as it's not "Part 27 b" or something like that. Another interesting job, thanks you three!
As usual - may the whole gang here have a great weekend!
Fridays are always better when your videos come up ...
Greetings from Amman Jordan 🇯🇴
Cheers! 😎👍
Every one of your videos seems to provide an escalating level of education about the technicalities of your profession.
As a seven year old child in the 1950's, I lived in Oxted, Surrey where my parents managed the Hoskins Arms Hotel 🏨 (built in the 1880's, and unfortunately demolished in the mid 1970's), located adjacent to a large building which housed lots of industrious tradesmen peering into the spinning jaws of their lathes.
It was an era when well-behaved, curious little boys could roam such places without an adult chaperone, and watch for hours, ask questions and make friends with them. I guess it helped that they knew my Dad poured their beers at the end of their shifts, so I never got told to "Scarper!"
Your videos are an extension of that lovely experience I had all those decades ago, and I'm very grateful to be an ongoing subscriber to your channel 😀
My friend said his lathe started howling! He went to look and the bit holder exploded. He saw it coming and covered his face with his left hand. He lost his middle finger but saved his eyeball. I love it when you say,"eyeballs";
As always, top tier work, in front of and behind the camera. Even the dog knows his job 100%.
🤣🤣🤣👍
The best aspect of your channel is that you’re doing real work really well.
Your weld beads are immaculate! You could produce an entire video of you just welding! Thanks for sharing your talents and skills with us. What a way to start a Friday!
It's incredible how you created that perfect metric thread at 33:44 using just a welder!
What a beautiful morning! I recently discovered your channel and I love it :). You're very skilled and experienced guy and the videos are just superb. I really admire hard work of all 3 of you.
I'm machinist myself and you make me feel proud again of what I'm doing, so thanks for that. Really thank you.
Wishing all the best from Czech Republic!
Hey mate welcome to the channel glad you are enjoying the vids 😎👍
You are in for a real treat, this is one of my favorite channels
You are going to so enjoy yourself watching Kurtis with his work, Karen with the videography and of course Homie was the super safety officer. Once you're done watching one video you can't wait for the next one.
I am not a machinist myself but I have learned a lot from Kurtis, just watching him work and explain things.
Check out their catalogue of older videos. Excellent, excellent videos for binge-watching.
Friday is a good day as I get to watch my 3 favourite Aussies, Homey, Karen and Kurtis. Good job getting this far looking forward to part 2. If our apprentice trainer ever saw us welding on a lathe he would have had our gonads in the blink of an eye. The trick was to do it while he was elsewhere, all we'd do is cover the slideways and make sure we cleaned down well afterwards. I'm guessing that you have kept that old bit of pipe to make a realistic swear jar for yourself, LMFAO. Be safe, take care and see you next week. Thanks for posting and keeping us all happy.
Now that would be an interesting build Karen Does Kurtis have the time?
@@andrewpowell6457 Well...... LMAO
Ah the humble milk crate, one of the most understated tools in every Aussie workshop.
It's in a lot of countries, along with the plastic bucket and sledgehammer 😃
They're popular with youngsters in NZ as an electric scooter accessory. The other Saturday morning, early, while at the bus stop I got to watch a posse of 10-12 year olds blat past, swerving and wheeling in a group and grinning like silly young buggers. A couple even had helmets on! The scallywags.
5 in the morning with my coffee and watching Cutting Edge machining, doesn't get any better. Thanks you three for all your excellent work. Start of a new day in northern Canada.
Kurtis you're content could never be to long , please keep up the great work you do, you certainly keep me entertained :)
Thanks mate
I'm an accountant and I'm totally fascinated with this channel. I'm in awe of the size projects you handle as a one man band and the precision and results you achieve. Love the out takes. My little staffy crossed bluey bitch loves Homeless also.
As a bassist I appreciate the plethora of bass clefs being made in that second cut! Rock on!
Howdy Kurtis! I'm in Texas. I'm retired. I'm not a machinist, nor a welder, but I love to watch a professional such as yourself machine and weld. Great content. Very well done. I'm a fan for life.
Woohoo! My Friday night is complete. Greetings to Kurtis, Karen and Homeless from Auckland, NZ. Love how your editing skills are improving Karen. 😄
we get better bloopers every week?? :P
I think the next shop made project needs to be Kurtis making himself a welding stool! That's some back breaking work and I think fashioning something that fits and functions the way you need it would be ideal. Hello from California and keep up the amazing work!
I was thinking that if I won the lotto, i'd send him one in the post! So nothing for him yet.
@@billdoodson4232 The thought of sending him one crossed my mind as well, but he may need something that isn't an off the shelf solution in order to have maximum comfort. It's hard to determine what his needs would be by watching the video and trying to match that with a stool that already exists.
Karen,
Quite a while back when I first became a subscriber, I posted a compliment to you on your videography.
Early in this video I felt compelled to renew that compliment. And watched the remainder of the video through a cinematic mindset rather than a metalhead.
This was no tripod documentary. Establishing shots, closeups, multiple playback speeds, multiple angles, pans, narrative, ASMR, continuity, tropes, before/after, reference shots, respite, hooks, the list is exhausting. (A drone overhead is about the only missing component.)
And this isn't a film student's gratuitous spew of technique, this is story telling.
I just want to let you know that I recognize that there is a second talent here to at least match Kurtis.
But I also understand that to feel the expression in a painting, the frame must be chosen carefully. It has to expose the nuance in the color and strokes, and at the same time be invisible in the consciousness and memory of the viewer.
So I will let you remain the giggles in the outtakes. But you have a fan.
wow, thank you so very much for this incredible comment! I had to read it twice it was beautifully written and I'm very grateful for the acknowledgment and that the video/editing is enjoyed makes my day! 😁 Karen aka the giggler 🤣
Hi Curtis, I'm not going to say again how glad I am it's friday again, or how much I love you (the employee), your wife (the CEO) and the Security Officer, or what a craftsman you are, or that your wife makes great videos. No, none of that. This time I want to thank you for the pleasure, admiration and relaxation you bring to us. Please keep throwing them video's!!!
1 or 2 or 3 parts, always a pleasure to see a master at work.
hmm that was very interesting, with no music. it helped my concentration enormously, plus the sound of the welding spatter added to the atmosphere of the work. and of course the clock was great too.
thank you Karen, I love you
please ask Curtis to visit and chat with pacific northwest hillbilly, he's having a hard time on his cat D4. I think he could do with some metallurgical help. he's a good bloke
The videography on the welding is I think the best I have ever seen Mrs Giggler, I liked the change to just showing the welding setting instead of Curtis having to talk (poor boy) it must be very difficult to freshen up the videos when basically it's welding, cutting, lathe or milling work and I do confess to a little FF now and then as I am no engineer or machinist but I do appreciate the level of skill of people like Curtis in particular and others on CZcams.
Been watching for a while now. I'm not a machinist or welder. A shade tree. Hobey. You amaze me every time. Both you and your wife. The precision. You remind me of my father in-law. He was a cabinet maker, Apprenticed before the second world war which was all old school back in those days. The man could do amazing things with wood. And I see that talent in you too.
Two parts are no big deal when it comes to the precision you have. Please keep them coming.
I've watched a lot of your videos, and finally figured out why I enjoy them so much. You actually fix stuff, in a world of parts replacers you actually are repairing things. Keep up the good work.
Midnight in Phoenix Arizona, can’t sleep, and my fav machinist post….thanks CEE…!!!
Maybe the soothing machining sounds will put you to sleep 🤣
I'm always so mesmerized by the work I rarely notice the clock in the back. Lol
Thanks Kurtis and Karen! Keep up the good work! Y’all make a good team. Karen the video editing is spot on you are definitely a professional, and the quality of work Kurtis puts out make you understand why he want to do it all himself.
Great job as usual.
Your customers are lucky to have a chap like you.
I don't mind longer videos, but I am sure that you and Karen do. Keep them at what ever length you two want. Always enjoyable.
That accurate set up is brilliant. You cover all the bases. No recalls
I'd say it's time to make a height adjustable frame for your rotator - if only to save your knees and back! Great work as usual guys 👍👍
Great work as usual Kurtis and Karen the job and filming is top shelf stuff , I reckon the next tool on your list is a padded milk create (dairy farmers brand )😃 thanks for putting this together to share, it's very informative and entertaining to watch . Straight to the pool room love for this flash tapping juice holder 😁
It is amazing the number of uses for a milk crate that do not involve milk ?
Another "value added" master class. I don't get bored (no pun intended) in your class.
Hello Karen and Kurtis always I enjoy watching yawl here in Oklahoma.
watching you from Ireland after 20 years of industrial maintenance. That's good work right there.
Two parts is perfectly fine. Always a treat to watch you work. AND your welds are what we all aspire to achieve if we were so lucky. Great as always. Take care all three of you.
i have only followed your channel for a few months now ever since I became medically retired. Watching your videos has me captivated and I am learning why you do what you do to fix the parts you get in. Some of what you do has me scratching my head as to why you do that then the light bulb goes off as I watch your progression. I especially like the FUBAR out takes and the video of your fur baby. Have a good weekend from my family to yours from Oregon.
The clock in the background really sets the time frame well. Awesome editing and photos of the huge dump truck/mining.
And next week, Barry gets honed to perfection, Homeless continues his one Dog crusade to save Australia from an invasion of blue pigs, and find out whether there is any background music to be found in continental Australia. Stay tuned for the return of blue steel and giggles from our popular videographer, till next time g'day guys.
Always left on a cliff hanger, educational, humorous and a pleasure to follow your guys working week. Have a great weekend, you earned it.
I knew I stayed up for a good reason. Now I remember what that reason was… good stuff as always CEE team!
Great explanation of the thought process and planning behind the repair. Good score on the giant steady rest too!
That inside weld was a beauti Kurtis. It´s just a great feeling when the job it done right.
Thanks to both of you..
That new steadyrest is the PERFECT size for that job !!!!! 👍
Kurtis, you make even the most difficult and challenging jobs look easy. Thanks once again for sharing your skills and talents. And as usual, the videography is first class. Another shout out to Karen. Thanks Team!
12:24 C'mon man, wtf was that! He knows exactly where to cut, he knows exactly how much to leave behind, he knows exactly where to heat so the thing literally pops off! 😀
The man is an artist!
Daithi, watch the cut. When he sees oil coming out of the cut he knows he's hit the crossover between the materials. He's explained it before in another video. Look carefully, there's a dark line appears. That's the transition.
And yes, he is an artist in his trade.
Not only that, Daithi I, but if you listen closely you can hear angels singing at 17:39 when he pulls back the head flange!
It always amazes me at how perfect your welds are, very impressive.
I love the Wurth clock in there to show how much time it takes and how late it actually is for you. You could make this a 4 part, and I would watch all of them. Thanks !
I enjoy the vids no matter how many parts they come in, hope you have a great day.
Thanks for the support!
I’m surprised that you haven’t made a stand for your weld roller to keep the wheels in line and still be adjustable. Also put it higher for weld comfort.
Love the videos. And of course the outtakes
Was thinking same
Yep your knees will thank you later.
Agreed. See 36:28 for proof.
"What're ya' on the floor for?"
I think it would take two separate roller stands, to accommodate different job lengths, with cross bracing.
That chip hit me directly in my left eye! I’m glad the Inspector had me wear safety glasses! I enjoy Karen capturing the sounds of tools being chucked and trued in lathe and such! Good work all!
Another persons unluckiness maybe your lucky day. Love when those days come up. 😍👍
The bearings in that Tool Master are awesome. The way you rolled that cyl setting up the S.rest was slick. Karen, kudos on the slo-mo closeups, the chip noises are scary. Seeing the red heat inside the barrel from the tack welds was nifty. Now for the commercial break, hurry back.....
can you imagine the feeling of the owner of a new lathe that he'll never be able to use? sick!
we hope they had insurance! 😬😭
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering my dad scored a brand new lathe that a company dropped here in hawaii. we have a machine shop here so he took it apart and fixed it. 100k lathe for 20k.
Absolutely no need to apologize for the multi part video...and can I just say - I super appreciate how consistent you guys are at putting these out every Friday.
I know how much effort goes into making these...
Just love waking up in the morning (here in Montreal) and having my regularly scheduled CEE video.
i have to agree with you on that, because it impresses me to see how Kurtis is able to get the job done and make the part look better than factory made
You bring back my teen years thank you God bless you!
I understand fully what you go thru to get videos done, you are one of the best welders I've seen in a long time. Keep up the good work.
All of the work he does is amazing!
Your guys's camera work is amazing!! always getting good shots and angles.
Hearing you call imperial measurements Bananas is super funny for a heavy equipment mechanic in Los Angeles. I wish you were here because our rebuilders aren't any better than field repairers. 32 years under my belt and I've learned a few techniques off your channel while being entertained. cheers mate!
Great video pal. I didn't think you looked that uncomfortable when welding in the video..
im a decent welder but no where near as good as you are. pleasure watching you work! just found your channel the other day and been binge watching the shit out of it since and learning alot as well! im a dog lover as well with a service dog i love from being a combat vet!
Welcome to the channel mate 😎👍
Cheers! From Canada 🇨🇦
I did my time and qualified as a general & mechanical engineer, toolmaker but was one of many laid off a year later. I then did my time as a carpenter and joiner and been doing it ever since (over 30 years). My heart is still with your kind of work, and I know, you know your stuff!
Oh my God Karen! This was just as good as watching an action movie, I was biting my nails watching Dr. Curtis work his Magic, I said it before and I'll say it again, you are an incredible videographer, I very much enjoy your videos, I may not have a Ph.D. in engineering, but the way Curtis explains it, I can actually imagine just what he is doing, and it makes sense to me. This looked like a very hard, complicated, and work-intensive project to me. Thank you very much, I cannot wait for part two. PS stay Gucci.
Belting videos, I spend far too much time enjoying this chap, bringing back memories of when I started my engineering career many many moons ago. Brilliant stuff man.
Hello Karen, Kurtis, and Homeless....wishing you all the best In the middle of winter......always great to have you drop by the house every week Friday mornings, from the other Sunshine State, Paul
Hey Paul, things are already starting to warm up here, wasn't much of a winter and hopefully no more rain this year 😅
The videography is always in the right spot for the right shot!!
Kurtis you are the main man with the welding , bravo brother, love from England !!!
Another awesome job by the crew. I'd have been crippled up for days if I had sat on that crate holding that position for that long. Dont know how you do it. Keep up the great work. .
He is still young ? lol.
I've got a weld positioner in my lower back called dodgy L5....doesn't work at all.
😎👍Watching you work and explain as you go is always fascinating, and of course seeing Homey is just icing on the cake.
I'm honestly a little addicted to your videos. I like the details and reasons why things are a certain way. Really like when Kurtis has his funny remarks left in the final edit. Freaking hilarious. Great job guys.
Wow ,at 27.30 perfect match, nothing less than i expected . You are so good that i am jealous of your skills.
Respect from the UK
That chuck tailstock never ceases to amaze me at how handy it is. Incredibly handy, and great idea. Great work as always Curtis and Karen. Keep up the great work.
When that flange lined up so PERFECTLY!!! My mouth dropped open, I was like WOW!! Nice work! Great picture quality and camera work! Absolutely amazing!
Oh my god those beads 🤤
Truly a welding god
After all the videos I've watched of you doing what you do I'm still mesmerized by your work. It's beyond professional. Can't wait for part 2!!! Hey Karen... Great filming as usua :)l
Thanks for the vid - Friday would not be the same without a CEE vid.
Nice bit of schadenfreude on the steady rest score.
Considering what you were sitting on - no wonder you were uncomfortable. Your arse must have a permanent criss-cross pattern embossed in it 🤣
All the best,
Paul
From Los Mochis Mexico, I stay awake watching the video on Thursday night, the time difference allows it. Cheers
Hey no worries about a two parter. Sometimes things just happen the way they do and well we can roll with it. Personally I like longer videos like these but hey not everyone does.
Loved how Homie was all excited about gifts LOL. I also laughed so hard when you put that signal lost part in the bloopers when Kurtis had a "Lost network server connection" moment 😂.
I really love the fabricating end of things, it is what really interests me. I did pick up the Dummies Guide to Welding so I can understand some of what is going on better. Years ago when I worked at the movie theater we had an issue with the popcorn machine warmer not working properly so I took it upstairs and took it apart and found out that the nylon bushing had wore out. So I ended up completely dismantling it so I could clean it properly and then made two new bushing from copper pipe with a hacksaw and file.....the thing worked better then it did from factory and was still working great roughly 10 years later when the machine go replaced. Loved doing things like that.
Looking forward to next week.
its cool how you can figure out the depth width and travel speed of the cut just from the scraps coming off
Comes from experience. I knew an old timer that knew the product in itself so well that by just looking at the item he got everything bang right the first time. You'll never see this in another 50years. It's a slow dying art. CNC is gonna cost us all in the long run.
Привет из России, тоже такой работой занимаюсь, восстанавливаю гидроцилиндры.Только сборкой, подготовкой и сваркой. Токарные работы у нас делают в другом месте. У вас же полный цикл ремонта, с удовольствием смотрел вашу работу.Удачи вам и успехов! Greetings from Russia, I also do this kind of work, I restore hydraulic cylinders. Only assembly, preparation and welding. Turning work is done elsewhere. You have a full repair cycle, I watched your work with pleasure. Good luck and success!
Out of all the "barrell repair" videos, this one seems to have the most explanations. Thank you for sharing!
Those huge buttons are my favorite, they cut so well and clear chips like no other.
I love that Homeless makes a bee line to the mail when you guys open, dude knows exactly what's up. He's got fans all over the world.
Somewhat mixed feelings about multi-part videos. Hate waiting for the rest, but when it is great content, it is worth it.
Totally understand the time restraints between videoing and other shop related stuff.
Just keep the videos coming.
Some amazing equipment you have at your disposal, fantastic large lathes with onhand loading crane, rotary tube rollers and what must be a fantastic welder looking at the results. I especially like the welding seat, it must leave a nice patern on your rear end after sitting on it for a while 😂 It's probably the only bit of gear that I can say that "I have the exact same one" seriously though, nice job, looking forward to the finishing as I noticed while you were turning the outside weld prep that the inside of the cylinder was not turning true to centre.
I noticed that too but I'm not a machinist so any comment I make is made out of ignorance so please take no offense. If all the internal of the barrel needs is a honing wouldn't it be prudent to have the internal ID of the barrel turning true to centre? Being retired, I watch a lot of CZcams vids and by far yours is my favorite Thanks for your educational content.
By the way, you need to get Homie a job as a durability tester for dog toys.
I’ve “refined” my milk crate seat with a piece of 3” (thickness according to need, I had 3” on hand) rigid foam. Closed cell works too. Young butts are less finicky than old butts. I like the idea of elevating the rotator to save Kurtis’ back.
@@asw19B100 When your young you don't realise whats comming in 20-30 years time, we took everything in our stride, if uncomfortable you just got on with it, now at 65 I'm paying the price, hips worn out and back with displaced discs, nerves getting trapped in my kneck that make your fingers always numb, don't think I'll make it to 80, don't think I want to either, every day is a chore.
The old HVOF on rams that flex story again !!! Nice finding that steady rest . 👍👍👍
Such a great idea to place the clock in the background to show how long these jobs really take. Another awesome video!
