    Those cutaways just keep getting better. Those catalogues you showed sure are cool, amazing to see how much detail and quality used to go into things. That ending with that parade and the Sgt. gave me a laugh. Thanks for the show ScoutCrafter!

    We're currently getting numerous programs commemorating eighty years since D-day (06/06/44) so many young lives given from so many allied countries to protect our nation and our freedoms - something we all should never forget !
    Amazing amount of detail and design in that valve, very interesting cut-away thanks for educating us yet again !
    I see what you mean about the parade, goodness me, mind.you, you did say that you love a nipple ! 😉

    Our parade in the 1960s had 1000s of vets(Spanish American, WWI, WWII, Korea, and NAM), over 600 Boy Scouts and many marching bands. It was a big and interesting event. Our Scout Master was a west pointer so we drilled a lot before the parades each year. Don't even have a parade now. Partly the fault of the VFW who wouldn't accept NAM vets in the 60s and 70s.
    Good video. Good Luck, Rick

    That is so impressive. Beautiful work, I love all those cutaways. I have used that stile of flap sander 100's of times only with a 1/4" SS rod on a die grinder. You can also fold a .030 wire preferably welding rod in half put it in your vise an inch or so and chuck it in your drill and twist it. Now you can slip your sand paper in the slot and do a long curved tube. Works great when you have to slot the tube around the curve it cleans all the burs out.
    Thanks for all you do.

    John , pride needs to find its way back into peoples heart. We would not have litter all over the country side. I just brought home a bunch of motor manuels from a shop that has been liquidated. There is 3 for Volkswagens from the fifty’s. My late friends brother invented the hot water heater we enjoy today in our cars. He was working for Buick at the time and was rewarded with a brand new Buick. I do not remember is first name but his last name was Bohse. I believe the family lived in Dayton Ohio. I always take a magazine to doctors appointments. Everybody is on there phones. You do a great job on the cut always. You are a history teacher teaching common sense. Great show Thank you

    On oxy-acetylene setups it's oxygen valve all the way open to prevent leaks and acetylene 1/4 turn open in case you need to stop the gas quickly.

    Great video 👍 Great video of the Walworth 1-1/4in. steam valve . Fantastic information and demonstration of how it works. Great to see the book 📖 on those valves, very interesting and very detailed. I think the best part of that book 📖 is the realistic Cutaway views of the different type of valves and what not you could order. I think these types of books are great for people that are getting in the field as a apprentice that is learning a trade so they know how the part works but what it is used for in their trade. Again who ever did the graphics for that valve book did a fantastic job, great images.👍👍 I think you did a awesome job with the cutaway view of the Walworth valve. It turn out Fantastic 👍👍.

    Very cool. I’m in Northern BC. We’re a little cautious about opening up our water valves for the exterior spigots before our May long weekend, because it likes to snow and maybe freeze. Lol. Not this year, just rain.
    Funny thing, I opened my interior gate valve on Sunday and it leaked. I just finished going through all my valves and seals (as all of us have on hand, lol) today and resealed it and now I’m watching this. Long story, little point. Haha.

    Love the cutaway valves. We do some annual fire hydrant testing, maintenance and replacement. Their valve operation is interesting, especially the old Iowa hydrants. Not too many people know certain valves need the tension taken off after closing. (Your broad knowledge across the trades always amazes me).I can’t get any of my young guys to accept the concept. They think brute force is the only way.

    • @mumfordalien1794
      @mumfordalien1794 Před měsícem

      Sounds like we’re in the same industry.
      Yup I always close our gate valves a turn after fully opening them, first I heard about taking tension off after closing, most of ours leak.
      Annual hydrant exercising is a chore isn’t it?
      Wish we had one of those fancy Milwaukee hydrant tools ($$$$)

  • @davidrule1335

    I would add on the markings on a valve. W.O.G ..stands for water, oil and gas. and 3M or 6M would stand for 3 or 6 thousand pounds, M is (Roman for 1,000). 150 (very common would stand for 150 lbs @ 300 deg. F. Also Scout is correct about some valves having a full open sealing surface, however on a oxy/acetylene rig open the oxygen all the way but NOT the acetylene. Acetylene is the same type valve but only needs to be cracked for safety reasons as you need to be able to close it fast. In closing when cleaning the inside of a pipe nipple, DON'T BE SKIMPY WITH THE 50/50. he left that out. lol

    Your parade has certainly gone downhill. Here in the land of Oz we have a day called ANZAC day, to honour the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. Lately we have had some shops that refuse to sell ANZAC merchandise , and on Australia Day we have shops that refuse to sell Australian Flags. Whenever a shop does that, I will never spend a cent with them ever again. I am running out of shops to buy things in. One a positive note, that was a great job on the valve.

    Snow tyres - unheard of in the UK, but in Germany and other European countries, winter tyres are mandatory - there is a fine of 60 Euro for having the wrong tyre, and it goes up to 80 euro if you block other road users by getting stuck. Tyre depots provide a storage service for the set of tyres you're not using. They even have an expression - von O bis O (from o to o) meaning from October to Easter to remember when to switch over.

    Our second house was built in 1920. It had regular galvanized pipe for cold and brass for hot. The galvanized had corroded to about a 16th of an inch in clearance. Folks told me that the same did not happen to brass Which I believe was once code in NYC. So I cut small openings throughout the house and redid the cold water with PVC. Two years later the hot water pressure had dropped to nothing. Upon inspection it looked the same as the galvanized. So I cut holes... and replaced it all.

    My grandfather was a truck driver. He had a horror story about that paticular style Volvo. If you watch closely you'll see the bumper tappering in to a step. He knew a trucker that was driving on the road next to a canal and the bumper was hit by some wide and low farm equipment coming from the opposite direction. That bumper step bent straight into the tyre causing the truck to steer into the canal. The driver never got out. Apperently the headliner was all torn up so he did try... I always think about that story when I see that truck.

    There is very little parades any more. I doubt there are awards for floats unless it's something like Macy's. Haven't been to one in 25 years. Some of those old items are still sold today. You look through Summit and they have many of them. Coker for old style tires. Sadly JC Whitney is no more. Speaking of valves, you don't see many valve grinders or grinders for the seats. I should add I don't think there is one picnic in at least 6 blocks of me.
