@@RustyInventions-wz6ir thanks bubba.... I kinda fell off the radar the last couple three years! Still recovering from the covid years. You keep doing your thing

Yes I am blessed to be able to feed my addiction! Not going to complain....... but Hå hā hâ hä hå hā hâ hä

Yeah you could tell by the background noise I'm not exceptionally good with the camera. Need more practice.....hå hā hâ hä hå hā hâ

Packing a 6-71 wind mill, dual holleys, powered chopped ass coupe! From an old 80 yr old hot rodder

Thanks buddy! I needed a deadline to get moving. I think I'll make it..... got 6 weeks

@@davewilson1591 Go for it 👍

Yeah it seems like I'm adding weight.... but it's mostly pockets like a receiver on the back of your truck. Everything is modular and removable. I'll tow with a 1 ton with stuff in the back of the truck. Truck's rated 18,000# trailer's got 3500# axles.... so with 10,000# tires, new, the price killed me, on the trailer I should be able to pull this off. My other trailer could only be towed 35 MPH max. Not good... so we're going for the speed limit with this one! My neighbor has a 39' fifth wheel GVW 14,000# he tows with a 3/4 ton no problem. We won't be near that.

@@davewilson1591 whew! Thanks for taking the time to explain. I can’t wait to see it completed .

Hå hä hã. Thanks buddy. Actually they aren't up there when going down the road. But you're right.....at this point it'd take a couple days to set it up. And the more I go through my stuff the more I find that has to go up.

@@davewilson1591 👍

thanks bud....Wasn't Huntsman the guy who invented the hard steel with tungsten in it, crucible steel? Helped give Sheffield it's world renown for cutlery. Yeah Darby was also the gentleman who first figured out how to smelt iron with coke...instead of charcoal. He almost single handedly kick started the Industrial Revolution. Have you been to the iron bridge at Coalbrookdale? Think converter was Bessemer. There was a lot going on at the beginning!

@@davewilson1591 Benjamin Huntsman Ive been to ironbridge... There's another identical bridge built just a couple of years later in Leeds.... Most people aren't even aware of it as you can't tell when you're walking over it......and it's difficult to get underneath it...

Yo buddy. I got the hangers bearings oil catchers and line shaft all together. Got real lucky there

@@davewilson1591 very good to hear that

I checked out your channel... hope your doing ok. Maybe life getting in the way of your passion.

@@davewilson1591 as always you know how it goes

Thanks buddy.... how's your '57 project coming? Thought I checked and hadn't seen much lately.

@@davewilson1591 It's been slow with winter set in. It was -28f yesterday morning, I don't want to freeze my hands up out there. But I did get the lights working, and the charging system working. I got a new fuel tank and all the side glass for it, so that'll be the next projects. I rebuilt an Edelbrock carburetor for it instead of my usual Holleys, and it seems to run smoother, so I'm excited to see how it goes down the road this spring.

Sorry buddy but it's not mine.... would love to own it. Heard it was for sale about 5 years ago.....$20,000

@@davewilson1591 This must be the price to pay for something LARGE LOUD AND PROUD. Forget to include in charge too.

How's old Glenn been? Glad you's still gettin around.

@@davewilson1591 I'm hoping to clear out No2 container down at my mate's yard and get some stuff set up in it...

Thanks Bubba!

Thanks bubba! It works so good for me I might have to build another

Thanks buddy

Thanks buddy. We're hanging in there.

Thanks for watching! Unfortunately I only have a half dozen and between both trailers they're all called for. I'll post a video in the near future showing the use as outriggers for the new one.

Glad to hear it! I was thinking about mine and when I get this trailer in shape I'm going to have to get the old pedal powered unit set up. I heard you can control the speed with the treadmill motor. Holding a 10,000th with a Barnes could be pushing it beyond what could have been done when it was new! Good job. You must have some machining skills. I'd be lucky to hold .010" on the old girl.

@@davewilson1591 I have modified a couple of things to tighten it up. Replacing the chuck helped tremendously. I spent hours hand scraping the ways and shimming the chuck mandrel. I use a 100 dollar QCTP from Amazon that holds really well. Also have an alignment bar for centers. Installed trust bearings in the carriage. Now it is solid mounted on a cabinet and leveled. I don’t know exactly how long it will stay that tight. I bought it as a project and don’t use it as a full time piece of equipment. I usually turn mild between 5-7 hundred rpm. Then make my final pass at 1500 rpm. It makes a nice finish with cheap carbide tips. Keep in mind I’m not making deep passes, a thou or two at a time manually. It’s not worth the time to setup gears for no more than I do on it.

@@Miner-49 Yep, that what it takes. You have to dial your equipment in to get good results. Sounds like you have some machinists blood running through your veins. I don't have the patience. Different back ground. I bent, folded, welded, fit up, layed out, and generally made things out of metal my working life. Tolerances way different. But I enjoyed it. You keep on holding .0001" and I'll watch.

Thanks buddy. I been under the weather lately.. have gone the longest without striking an arc. Hoping I can get back at. You know what Puddin's Fab Shop always finishes his videos with.

@@davewilson1591 Hope you feel better! I'll be here watching for the updates! :)

Thanks I don't know why they don't make them anymore. But the old ones work just as good.

Thanks he has it set up pretty nice

Thanks buddy. It's up and I decided to bolt it only. No welding. It doesn't act too stable so it will be easier to remove if it doesn't work out. Look on craigslist or offer up for the warehouse racks. You can find them pretty cheap if you look. Actually I used to build them back in the '70s. Easy to put together anywhere. And they're rated for tons. Like 10 tons

Yeah after this you're more than right 😂. You know HF has 1000# ratchet straps on sale I've backed off for now to think about it and you've talked me into it. Next year I'm going to get a couple 4 packs.

@@davewilson1591 The 1000# work much better. I went straight to chains and a big gin pole on the back of my shop truck. I've done enough goofy shit to know what I can get away with, but decided that borderline setups were not worth getting hurt over... Happy New Year!

Thanks buddy.

Thanks. Top of hand rail is only 16'! But it's removable and deck height is a tad under 13'. Should fit under any standard overpasses. They're usually 14' 6" to 15' 6". These are highway miles so I'm only looking for the speed limit.

Hello. The trailer is 16' , but there's a 4' porch off each end. So the line shaft is 24' . The main line shaft is turning about 180 rpm. A bit slow as they were more likely to run about 250 rpm back in the day. Plain bearings usually didn't turn faster than 500 rpm max. I have a 4' pulley that's running 20 mph at the edge, so you can get into dangerous territory real fast. Go for it you'll be surprised how easy it is and don't over think it.

@@davewilson1591 I'm mostly concerned about the hight I need. I see your belts are pretty short and pulleys close together. I have an old 3 HP electric to power it.

@@djdutch87 my ceiling is 9' . On some applications the closeness of the pulleys doesn't matter, but to cross or twist the belt to reverse rotation or installing a belt shifter you do need enough distance. I've found direct overhead is the least effective for transfer of horsepower, the more horizontal the better. That being said vertical set ups can not be avoided. Wood pulleys with leather belts transfer the most horsepower. But the old timers made all manner of configurations work. When I started I was over thinking it. Once you get something up you'll find out it's not as difficult as you thought. Good luck 🤞

Thanks..... You got that right! It's supposed to be 104 today and I'm staying inside.

Hå hä hã.... Yeah it will weigh a bit. It'll definitely be under 10,000. That's my limit. I had to start this trailer because the other got too heavy

Thanks for the quick reply Dave can’t wait to see it.

Gotta make them engines earn their keep!

Thanks buddy. You're invited...

Thanks buddy.... I'm only putting a half ton chain hoist. So with an outrigger I should be fine.

Thanks buddy.. finished welding it this morning and the heat drove me in. 10:30 and already 💯. Done for the day!

Thanks buddy. A little pucker work never hurt. The desert areas of California are predicted to reach 120 today. I live in the valley.... Only 111!!!

Thanks buddy

Thanks buddy. Are you making progress on the 57? My neighbor's building a 56.

@@davewilson1591 I've been ordering parts. I'm hoping to have it running before winter but we'll see how that goes. That's awesome!

Thanks friend

Thanks buddy. Yeah one's never enough.

Thanks friend. I'm amazed by the quality the fabricators achieved at such an early date.

It is amazing....just like our lathes.
