Guys I am really not trying to sound like an asshole but you need to leave the machine work to professionals, when it comes to mechanical you guys are the best no doubt about it, put all that machine work looked horrible I personally wouldn't have put it on video for everybody to see
Wow
Thanks for the nasty comment
The machine work in this video was very professional. You however, could use a bit of advice.
It is better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth (keyboard) and remove all doubt.
CZcams has an endless variety of videos, if you don’t like this one, just go away.
Or are you just here in a pathetic attempt to be noticed?
"Guys I am really not trying to sound like an asshole" MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!!!!!
Not an asshole, just a concerned armchair machinist. Keep up the terrific work, Clint. Much respect from Texas
If your so good at machining why don't volunteer your services to c&c equipment
Kurtus at Cutting Edge Engineering Aust is re; bushing a stick and bucket from a 70 Hitachi excavator at this moment, he is such a PRO at doing these line boring jobs. A one man operation doing such an expert job and he makes it look so easy.
I like that there is no bad language from you your two sons or your employees that is a good moral virtue keep it up.
And I'm impressed of your knowledge of big equipment.
How about a history lesson about how you built yourself up to where you are now?
That would be great.
go watch "a few points from perfect" when he was on the podcast he tells all this!!
Retired utility electrical engineer here. You said running two welders at same time affected weld quality, while one at a time does fine. They are on the same 60 amp circuit off a 600 amp service. It’s likely both welders running is reducing the voltage at the 220 outlets they are plugged in to. The short circuit current of both welders lines up at times resulting in a large voltage drop across the 60 amp circuit wire, especially if it’s a long wire run from the main service panel. A solution may be to run another separate 60 amp circuit from the main panel and split the welders. Another may be to increase the wire size for the existing circuit. I say all this assuming ( you know what that means ) the utility 600 amp service provides rock solid voltage. You might want to ask the utility to confirm your service voltage with a good amount of load running. Also they can confirm the power quality in the building. Wouldn’t be the first time that a rural customer didn’t have rock solid voltage. There are many possible causes. This is simply a place to start. Really like your channel. Great for those of us that love all things mechanical. Keep up the good work.
Excellent advice, I wonder if part of it is dirty sine wave when both elders are running. Some of these new switch mode power supplies do nasty things to the 60Hz sine wave.
Where I worked we manufactured, assembled and tested Greenlee power pumps. The pumps had to put out so many gallons of oil in a given time. Units were failing inspection on 2nd shift. I noticed that it seemed the power supply was dropping late in the afternoon. Maintenance called the utility and they came out and there was an issue with the transformer on the pole outside the building. New transformer fixed us up.
@@ronneidertAgree. The harmonics generated by these switch-mode power supplies are significant. A power quality check by the utility with the welders and other loads running would reveal any harmonic distortion in the AC waveform. Variable speed drives, LED lighting, modern welders, battery chargers, etc. all contribute to harmonics and power quality challenges.
@@user-tv3hg8mq2j Harmonic distortion was my first thought too.
My daughter is an electoral engineer. She is currently supervising the building of a new power station plant. If I remember, I will ask her opnion of this issue that you have.
Another successful operation at the C&C animal surgeons.

Clint, just watched Kirtis at Cutting Edge Engineering Australia and he just got done doing on a 70-tonne excavator what you were doing on the 350G with his new WS2 plus line boring system, the video before this was him unboxing the unit with all the accessories that he had ordered with it, thought maybe you would like to see it, Kurtis was pleased with his new purchase.
Love him and his wife and homeless.
Yes he does like the new WS 2, both of them are good machines for sure!
He does some amazing work
The CEE WAS A good with his Sir Meccanica. I noticed it is Italian made.
I just did the same thing. Went from CEE and line boring to C&C
At 20 minutes, you had 2K views. At 1 hour, it shows 5180 views. Peeps are jumping on your videos. I enjoy the learning.
That was the optional agitator bucket for making concrete. Load your gravel, sand and cement , shake and pour. Good job guys.
CZcams brings out the good and the worst in people and I’m glad that your viewership has a lot more good than bad with a huge amount of knowledge and wisdom that they pass on, and us oldies love being right 🏴👍🏻
I haven't seen that kind of speed since the Benny Hill show back in the 80's. The way Kevin and Mason took the pins out of that machine! LOL!
Que the music from the show, that would fit Kevin....
Night and day difference on that bucket. I hope Mason stays with the business, he has a lot of potential I think.
I have been around machinery and also precision machine work my whole working career. What you did was very acceptable! You are building up an area for a bushing to fit in not a part for a jet engine. That repair you men did will outlast the machine. GREAT WORK!!
Got to love Randy, a man of few words, hard working man.
As always I have enjoyed your latest video. Have also just seen Cutting Edge Engineering where Curtis is doing a similar job albeit on a bit bigger machine. Fascinating to see proper engineering in the modern throw away society. Thanks for sharing.
That bucket is about 3 times bigger. But much the same job. He does have to face the thrust surfaces though.
Clint, you all did a great job welding and line boring this John Deere Excavator. The machine looks and sounds great. After Kevin puts his magic on it the machine will be like new. Great video and very entertaining. God Bless To You All.
I want to see more excavator videos. Kevin leave Tucker be. One day he might be your boss. Haha. A video of Kevin painting might be interesting for some. Excellent work guys
Watching Kevin doing the bodywork and tapeing up, sanding, prime, and painting and then unmasking and having a reveal party. Have that a full video or maybe 2 or 3 video series I would like that. Thanks for sharing enjoyed the video very much Thanks
Kurtis at Cutting Edge Engineering Australia just did a job where the line boring attachments did not quite fit (by a lot) so he welded flat bar to hold the attachments distributing the hold angles.
Yeah we want to see that stick and boom hole repaired too, we like watching your sons practice their art too.
What ever field Mason chooses to apply himself in. He is going to excel. Just watching him you can see he takes a lot after his dad. Nice video.
NO, Clint, those switch-mode power supplies will run off 50 or 60 Hz, they don't care. The voltage is rectified to DC then charges big capacitors for the rest of the power supply to use. The motors are servo motors that run on DC voltage and would not be affected by a 50Hz input frequency. It's gotta be the idle current setting of the motors on the circuit board, there may be adjustments or it is designed in. Great video BTW.
I was going to say the same thing.
Exactly. Only want to add that they are stepper motors.
They are cheap to replace if they burn ! You can check the amp setting on the dip switches on the stepper drive and compare it with the motor. Sometimes they have a separate dip switch for half the current selection.
Steppers generally run hot too.
Gets me, those who have no idea how much parts cost, suggest just replacing parts instead of repairs at a fraction of the cost. Great video!
That square top motor is a stepper motor. The bottom definitely looks like an AC brushless Servo motor. HZ won't matter for the reasons you stated. Steppers run hot but shouldn't be too hot to touch. There are dip switches on that stepper motor controller in the electrical box. Lower the amps on the next step down according to the chart printed on it. You'll notice a difference.
The vast amount of equipment required in your industry to repair 'broken' machines is amazing. The knowledge required to use same is a credit to you and the team. Good to see Tucker, Hunter and Mason on the job learning as well. This was a great video.
We need more El Camino and we need Kevin to get that mullet going so he can cruise like a BIG dog.
MORE CHEVY CONTENT 🥰
He'll be dailing the monster truck until Clinton has enough dailies banked to cover Kevin's wages, since He'll be in recovery.
Sumthin about learning to consume, Humble Pie!
Hopefully, he suffers no broken bones, dailing the monster truck, because it is long way up to get in the cab, and as vertically challenged as he is.
He might miss step once or twice, but the third time may be once too often.
Don't eat the yellow snow Kevin !! 🤣
Line boring is a cost effective solution to loose bushings. On the pins, we used EL50 Chrome plate ( it has a chrome plating flashed on and ground to about a.0015 thickness per side, you can purchase it bar stock or cut to length, thing is, it can wear the bushings faster than the pin, we opted to soften the pin ( 1050 CRR 4140 HT-- HT IS HEAT TREATED and then annealed at factory) and let it take the wear and save the bushings as much as possible, much faster and cost effective to change pins) if you have to machine any material with an EL designation you need to anneal the areas you machine, heat the areas to be machined red hot and let naturally cool to room temp. Any rate that’s what we had success with, just some thoughts and experiences I have gained over 30 years of job shop machining and fabricating. Nice job gentlemen, enjoyed watching, brings back a lot of memories to me.
Good advice
Grease is more cost effective lol
Poor Kevin lol the body lines r mint n the articulating bucket lol yall do amazing work fixing that stuff up
Ah, those perfectionists over at C&C Equipment... That bucket just had some barely noticeable slop in it, but almost perfect isn't good enough for them. 🙂
If that slop is in specs for John Deere give me a Komatsu or Cat anytime.
@@partone709Sarcasm is hard to catch. 😂
@@mfreund15448 I was figuring as much but just in case you were serious
No, no you got it all wrong that is the extremely rare wobble bucket feature. Seriously that is an expensive option (To fix) 😂🤣😅😁
Clint, you all did an awesome job getting all that slop take care of, and for all the work you did, handles a lot better now with no slop with the bucket. Great video!
I like any video you make on anything! Watch and learn baby! 👍🏻
Plasma cutter is like Dragons Breath!
Just watched Cutting Edge Enginering do the same thing on a stick today. He welded 3/4 flat bar across the end in 2 places to set the boring bar adjusters up on.
3 places, there was one at bottom as well 😊👍👍🍻
Curtis is a master of line boring. I didn't like the clickety-clack of the facing head's dog drive
Clint ……you guys are really “squirrel” minded, but WOW can you fix broken stuff up! Thanks for helping Matt out in Diesel Creek out!
Love the “fast-action” fixes! Very cool use of YT channel content in the editing room. I think Kevin needs a nap. But maybe that was the reading.
I like your C&C work crew and how you accomplish tasks by working “smarter not harder”. Tucker is just going through a series of BAD LUCK.
Good video-I enjoy watching this type of work and I am glad you left your mistakes in. That's real life and some people edit out all the bad stuff just to make themselves look "perfect". 😉
You videos are always great to watch Mason seems so quiet but a hard worker 😁👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Died laughing when Kevin started in on the Jurassic Park song.
Haven't even watched this yet, and I already know I need to say this: "Leave Mason Alone!"
Hello Mr. Mills, fun badgering in the shop, is an integral part of Mason's real life education. The Professionals in the C&C shop are already referring to the student as "Mr. Mason. He's getting a very good education and coming along great.
Good to see the boss getting stuck in to the job😊
Hey Mr. C what do you dislike worse. Replacing bushings on an oversized backhoe or Kevin’s singing? Lol
Definitely not my singing! He asks me to sing everyday! 🤣-Kevin
You did a fine job! Always enjoy watching you and your team...do the near impossible! Best wishes.
Heck yes. Love to see you do this work. Lotsa fun.
Thanks, always enjoy watching you repair machines.
We all look forward for your videos!
Yes please, love your engineering and working together
Heck yeah! More excavator videos. 👍
Thanks, it is good to see things working the way they should.
I have watched and done alot of work. If it fits the purpose and done well it does not have to look pretty. It needs to serve its purpose. While many may sit and criticize the work , they themselves have accomplished nothing. If you know so much i guess we all should be millionaires. Clint does an excellent job on repairs and works meticulously on getting things fixed. He deserves my respect. He works within his means to achieve alot but also gives the customers peace of mind. If you want a perfect machine then Volvo and deere are happy to serve you.
Very good job
It’s awesome to see the masters at work 😮
Another great one.
Loved the sound of the turbo spooling at 53:30.
Very nice looking 350! Nice works putting it back together!
Awesome project! Thanks for the ride along!
Another great job. Keep up the repair/rebuild videos.
Love th cutting and welding
Good job, I enjoy watching!
Nice to see an excavator being worked on. Always something different thanks for posting
Would really enjoy more excavator videos. I enjoy all of your videos.
Clint you are a Rock Star on this machinery !
Good crew working together, always makes for a great job 👍
A#1 quality work,as always
You do the best you can and your cost effectiveness is a good and always to me you’re thinking of costumer’s overall efficiency of the life the machine and the quality of the work you do spreading so that you can can make a profit and still give customers better equipment that has been neglected by companies and people who are operating it Mr Clint and your men Kevin,Randy,Tucker,Hunter,Jay,to Me you guys are real people doing a hard work and enjoying the outcome of the days work.(most of the time)👍😎🇺🇸 NY
Love watching all your work dozers/excavators and all the other s you work on
What no Kevin ice cream! Bummer!😂😂😂😂😂
Amazing job guys! Keep up the great work!
If you squint it’s mint. Like a hotdog down a hallway. 😂
Great worksmanship, dedication to service and quality. Nice job!!!
Thankyou Clinton and team for a very entertaining video.
Good to see, need more excavator footage. keep up the good work
Love thes video Clint and your Crew and like your work too .
Excellent job, guys
Nice work and good too see you doing it in house… 💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You guys are great to watch, and the knowledge you have is unbelievable 😊.thanks
Good work men…your repairs are always great to watch…
keep-up the good work.
Great video Clint, nice to see your sons working on the projects as well...
Defiantly made for great viewing guys so thanks for posting bro. Safe travels. Ken.
Great job guys
Good work guys. You all make it a pleasure to watch. All the best.
Great video! Excellent content with a little humor - a great combination! Take care...
Most of what you guy film is great , I love the dozers and excavators.
That was quite a video! Lot's of work, welding and a full education on how to and how not to. Great video!
How much play was in that bucket lol! Good job guys!
Just a great video. I will never have equipment like this but can't stop watching, and I have watched many! Thanks Clint.
Super job done, and what a great team you have and some top lads and well done Tucker
Curtiss from CEE was doing a similar job on his April 5 video. worth the lot see.
Lots of tips C&C should pick up from CEE. Let gravity do the work for you when inserting bushings, for instance
Yeah, let's see the upper pin. All good stuff thet y'all do.
Depending on how long your service wires are from utility transformer to your building you may be having a little voltage drop when you really put a load on it. Great video. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Those welders might have power factors that are nowhere close to 1. This may cause it to need more power. Also noise from one on the supply side might cause interference on the other. A big line conditioner would fix that.
This. Also, peak current on the welders will be much higher - likely hundreds of amps. It's also possible you have a high resistance somewhere - a breaker going bad, a bad joint, etc. If this is the case, a thermal imaging camera can help identify the offending item.
great job Fellas. I know how hard it is!
You guys just get better!! Here we go! lol ..! Ya!! Cheers!;-)!!!!
i would watch what ever you are doing, find all your work very interesting. cannot wait for the next 1
Yes, me too, I'd like to see more 'excavator work' too, please.
i liked the blessing of the bucket with the excavator arm before insallation.
great video Clint, thanks for answering my question about the hardness of the steel after welding 👍👍👍👍👍
Yes please more excavator videos very interesting on what it takes to repair and refurbish heavy equipment
Great video I think your shop could fix anything thanks for sharing
Great video Clint and Crew looks tight getting out of the shop another one finished looking forward to the next one
Jurassic Park? Fitting. Thanks for the awesome post.
Fantastic job C&C Crew! Kevin, you duh man! Take care and I’ll see y’all down the road…
I've been to Australia at least a dozen times...I even did a bunch of skydiving down under. For me to skydive there...They forced me to bring my own gear...so I did. At the time I was flying the MD-11 Jumbo Jet in the cargo configuration. That worked out great because I was flying between Hawaii and Australia...so I got to skydive in both Hawaii and Australia...what a tuff life. Retired in Florida!
If yr going to buy it and fix it,I like watching.Thanks for sharing
Great video thanks for sharing.
Excellent video keep them coming and good to see how your business is going
