Any potential customer that watches your videos would know the quality of work you do and wouldn't mind paying, anyone else you probably wouldn't want as a customer anyway.
Wow what a nightmare job that turned out to be. It fought you at every turn. End result was brilliant. Hopefully that second one won’t be such a battle. Thanks again Oliver for taking the time to film, edit and post these videos.
I am happy to join with others admiring your persistence and "can do" attitude Ollie. Having some small experience with quoting in another field, quoting is just a way to lose money on jobs which turn into a black hole of surprises!
CEE's gantry crane was designed and used to move helicopters around that repurposed hangar. (ChatGPT: The mass of a typical commuter helicopter, such as the Bell 206 JetRanger or Robinson R44, ranges between 1,000 kg to 1,500 kg (2,200 to 3,300 pounds). These helicopters are designed to carry a few passengers and are commonly used for short flights, including airport transfers.)
With your work you really don't need to quote especially for all the times you have to repair or even undo work done by others. To those who want a fixed quote tell them to go elsewhere - that is if they can someone who does your quality work or is even prepared to take on the work. You do good stuff. Your name is getting out there. And word of mouth business is the best business you can get. Keep it up. Retired mechanic/machinist in Land Down Under.
In spite of this turning out to be a nightmare job you took the time to discuss and explain your plan of attack and the results of that attack. I hope you realise how helpful this is and how grateful your viewers are for it. Thanks very much and I hope you are having a restful Sunday. BTW, it was nice seeing you in short sleeves for a few moments! 🙂
Always amazed at how patient and persistent you are. Another great job of turning a very damaged part into something as good as new. Many thanks for all your videos - my Sunday morning treat!
Excellent work as usual Ollie, I never used to give quotes, always estimates because as in this case, you usually end up repairing someone else’s bodges ! Enjoyed that very much! Phil
Here from across the pond we call those things rotator attachments. Since I work on heavy equipment here, I also work on these. What a pain in the arse for sure. Nice video Snowball.
Very good again Ollie. Quality repair,sadly this is not often seen in our throw away world. My town had lots of places you could take something to be repaired, now they’re all gone. That’s why it’s called Snowball Engineering,not Snowball Welding and Fabricating. Best of British. All the best.
What a battle getting that shaft out! I was expecting you would bore the hole to clean out all the old weld while you had it on the mill the first time.
Son, you have a set of skills that many people would love to have, I enjoy the thought process you put into making the repairs, thank God that there are still people in the repair business and not the EGG heads that have taken basket weaving 101 in college that think they know everything.
I bet the first customer mentioned to someone about you taking on this job and word got around you're the guy. Word of mouth is the best advertising. If they have any questions about your work, they can always look you up on YT. Good stuff!
Glad you're always busy, no doubt the U tube channel and other social media has helped with that. It's a show case of your many talents, from pre fabrication works to putting right JCB's errors. Really interesting job, you see these things being used but never really understand the engineering behind them. What I like is, that like Kurtis over at CEE you explain and show the part on the machine. 👍
Agree! Since I'm not from the Ag or heavy machine world - I sometimes don't understand what the part does - or how it failed. So glad you show it in operation (like Kurtis does). Really helps!!
My first thought when I saw this job was oh ****, now what have you got yourself in this time lad? Still credit to you, you worked out what needed to be done, how to do it, then got stuck in! When I saw the state of the "repair" welds, I knew you had drawn the short straw. Well done Ollie, some of the best work I've seen, all the different skills you showed shown why you get work from far and afield.
You did a great job with this one ! I wondered how you would overcome all the difficulties to make the finished job good. You are getting known across other parts of the country now ! Thanks for taking us along as you did it. Brian from South Yorkshire
Wow ! More completely worn out equipment they bring you to make new for them . I hope you get rewarded financially for saving them the cost of buying replacement equipment.
I think the best part of all this is you can tell he truly loves the adventure of what he’s doing. If he has a boss he answers too that guy is incredibly blessed with this young man.
Cracking job Ollie, like you said almost impossible to quote for a job like that! No two same jobs are the same! Ever! Or very rarely. Keep up the good fight 👌
Now that wasn’t easy, but I just love how nothing flossers you. He just resolve the problem straightaway. Great content something different this week thank you.
I’m relieved to hear that you avoid quotes, it’s very easy to lose money on a job. With the level of care and attention that you put in I can’t imagine you get many customers whining about the cost. Hope the second one is easier 🙏
Very interesting and adsorbing video. The time flew for me. Excellent angles and great to sit along and watch your throught process as it all unfolded and got put back together. Cheers.
Always enjoy my Snowball Sundays, watching the trials and trepidations of our valiant hero and the horrible jobs he gets tasked with! That was a particularly nasty one, due to the butchery of a former repair! Have a good week Oly!
Mr. Snowball, you are getting very professional I must say! The jobs - yes, always, but viedos are great with details explained and just great end result!
You seem to take on jobs that are harder and harder. Maybe no one else would do it. It was clever the way you found the centre I was thinking how on earth is he going to do that. Good luck Ollie.👍
Great video. Liked the explanation of the process and your thoughts on how to go about it. It'll be interesting to see how the next boring operation on the mill goes if you try the other heads. Keep em coming 👍🏼
To get them molten beads off from workpiece I've used piece of old file welded to D=20mm tube or similar. Gets more mass into pushing them off + can make them different sizes to fit all small caps and one regrind and edge is like brand new. I like the thinking about solving these repairs - that's the way I have to sort farm equipment repairs also. Great content!
No cóż, zlecenie niezbyt skomplikowane ale wymagające dużego nakładu pracy i cierpliwości. Praca wykonana dokładnie i wizualnie bez zastrzeżeń .Trzeba być cierpliwym i nie poddawać się gdy coś nie wychodzi . Gdybyś miał potrzebne maszyny do obróbki Twoja praca byłaby łatwiejsza i szybsza w wykonaniu. Robota super!😀
Looks good. You are certainly persistent and inventive. A hydraulic press or the hollow style cylinder or both would make a big difference. The hollow style helps with jobs like this because most presses won't accommodate larger objects.
First thought I had when you said you were going to rotate the gear was that I'd also flip it over, to expose more unworn tooth surface. Then you did exactly that… ! Great minds think alike! Keep up the great work, Oliver.
That gear was determined not to come off, even when you attacked it with the big hammer. But you used almost every tool in the workshop and it failed to succeed in staying on. You won! That must have been one of the hardest things you've had come in. You sure got a workout getting that gear off. You even got so hot you had to take your gear off!!!
Well you certainly showed that box turner a lot more care than it's owner has. You should have included a grease cartridge when you packaged it up just so they know what one looks like !
yes mate for sure but i think you would have to include detailed instructions on it use and how you would need a grease gun maybe have to include one of them and a recommendation to a good maintenance guy to go along with is Cheers mate
I like that you show the video clip of the rotator in use. It helps to see what's going on when you receive the equipment "in bits". I really liked it when you showed the animation of the baler and its flywheel the other day. Also, would it have been an advantage to face the welds off of the gear and shaft in the first place rather than gouging?
A first-class job again Oliver, you video everything, warts and all and your ability to find a solution to unexpected problems and produce the best work possible is amazing, there is little wonder you are getting work from further afield, Bodge it and Scarper Ltd will be out of business in no time.
Hi Oliver, thanks for another great video mate, getting the old pin out opened up an unseen can of worms for you, but that's the name of the game in your line of work. The repair went great, no problem there, I hope you have an easier time whith the second one. Stay safe mate, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
Well young man you definitely had the challenge there . I guess from the moment that pin plate was turned over to show the amount of welding on the back it was going to be an epic repair . Just shows how good you are with your method of tackling a job. A great repair probably better than original . Strange how you say never had 1 then you get 2 . At least the second one you will know whats coming hopefully its not as bad as the first
Great to watch as always. Maybe could have indicated the internal bore from the outer cog (unworn inner part of the teeth). That would ensure the inner bore was concentric with the outer cog. The inside may have worn unevenly and no be any longer central.
Nicely done, agree on the quoting, If I have to quote it usually means the customer is asking around and wants it done cheap. So I just quote very high to cover things you just can't anticipate ... just in case !!
A horizontal borer would be great for this kind of work . Make oversize hole shrink fit new ring in place weld re bore to size. Jobs a good one. If you do a lot of this kind of work well worth considering. Even though I retired a few years ago make me want to put my working boots on and get stuck in......... Keep up the good work
Another silk purse Oliver. Knowing how challenging agricultural repairs can be you've done a great job of reaching a worn out and poorly previously repaired piece of equipment. You'd be mad to try to quote for work like that.
By milling the tool down to fit the boring head, have you changed the geometry (the insert with respect to the job)? You had a lot of chatter throughout. Cutwel (local-ish) sell some CNMG inserts by YG1 and they're very good. Also as another option you could have run a face mill across there to clean that up and saved the beautiful Wohlhaupter head for when only that tool will do. Thanks for the video. You do a brilliant job. 3,2,1 blocks are cheap and accurate for standing pieces on.
Oliver, interesting repair! Hope you video the second piece you need to repair, would be interesting to compare the two repairs. Thanks for bringing us along.
Very interesting thank you. That’s a lot of labour for a simple construction, must be borderline economical repair. Struggle to watch you barehanded with that angle grinder, I had an industrial accident when i was your age and has badly impacted me for the last 30 years, good that you watch your eyes and ears and lungs, but fingers and backs are vulnerable too.
Heating parts that are stuck together by rust (nuts, bolts, axles, etc) only works if at least one of the parts is heated to ~600C (dull red). At that temperature rust (FeOH, orange-brown) loses water and some oxygen, and turn into forging scale (FeO/Fe2O3/Fe3O4, gray-black). As it does so it shrinks, and the rust crystals break down to loose powder. *That* is what loosens the parts.
Quite a lot of work for such a small job, We made a press at one place I worked with huge hydraulic rams from a old 360 degree excavator, Built it with three huge pieces of RSR with a 40 mm solid steel bed, 🇬🇧🇮🇪.
morning although its is evening here great job lots of hidden extras on that one for sure i hope you got paid for all the extra work and time involved with it you say you now have another great job getting known for your excellent workmanship and ethics at least you have an idea on the next one may go a little better time wise just like your work i learn from all the machinist i watch you are one of them thank you although i wont nothing to do with large jobs such as this for sure only small shop and like it that way CHEERS mate

Snowball Engineering and Cutting Edge Engineering just made my weekend!
Wow what a nightmare job that turned out to be. It fought you at every turn. End result was brilliant. Hopefully that second one won’t be such a battle. Thanks again Oliver for taking the time to film, edit and post these videos.

Gantry crane did I hear gantry crane ?
Another enjoyable Sunday morning coffee and video
If possible, try to put in a bridge crane.

Top bloke for showing your errors! and not editing them out. I'm a welder fabricator too I appreciate the honesty. 👍
Here from across the pond we call those things rotator attachments. Since I work on heavy equipment here, I also work on these. What a pain in the arse for sure. Nice video Snowball.
The Engineers Black Book is a nifty little companion for machinery work like that.

That adjustable workbench (forklift) sure is handy for getting jobs at a convenient height.
It’s very handy
Interesting equipment, a challenging repair, and a lesson on cutting inserts... All this Oliver is why me/us look forward to your videos.
I like the use of “10X” speed on repetitive operations.
You did a great job with this one ! I wondered how you would overcome all the difficulties to make the finished job good. You are getting known across other parts of the country now ! Thanks for taking us along as you did it. Brian from South Yorkshire
Nice to see I'm not the only one who has one of those fully-adjustable workbenches from Hyster!
I have one from caterpillar but since it has electronic servo controls i dont cut and weld on it
Wow ! More completely worn out equipment they bring you to make new for them . I hope you get rewarded financially for saving them the cost of buying replacement equipment.
Oliver, Major props on you going after these jobs 👏 👌🏻
I think the best part of all this is you can tell he truly loves the adventure of what he’s doing. If he has a boss he answers too that guy is incredibly blessed with this young man.
Cracking job Ollie, like you said almost impossible to quote for a job like that! No two same jobs are the same! Ever! Or very rarely. Keep up the good fight 👌
Now that wasn’t easy, but I just love how nothing flossers you. He just resolve the problem straightaway. Great content something different this week thank you.
Hello Oliver from the USA....yep she was a fighter for sure. Great work as always!
I’m relieved to hear that you avoid quotes, it’s very easy to lose money on a job. With the level of care and attention that you put in I can’t imagine you get many customers whining about the cost. Hope the second one is easier 🙏
Love this guy he tells you the truth he’s the first to point out his mistakes what a honest person keep the good work coming Oliver much appreciated x
Oliver, thank you for showing the operation of the tipper at the beginning. You do work on interesting things.
Very interesting and adsorbing video. The time flew for me. Excellent angles and great to sit along and watch your throught process as it all unfolded and got put back together. Cheers.
Never is a good thing having to sort out the mess others make, but well done by you.
Great job Ollie. Thanks for the video. I look forward to your videos everyday.
Enjoying the down-to-earth practical decisions you make.. Thanks for sharing.
Proper can of worms that one, good thing about documenting your work is the customer can see what goes into the repair.
Always enjoy my Snowball Sundays, watching the trials and trepidations of our valiant hero and the horrible jobs he gets tasked with! That was a particularly nasty one, due to the butchery of a former repair! Have a good week Oly!
Mr. Snowball, you are getting very professional I must say! The jobs - yes, always, but viedos are great with details explained and just great end result!
The project turned out to be very thoughtful, thorough, neat and of high quality. Bravo!
You seem to take on jobs that are harder and harder. Maybe no one else would do it. It was clever the way you found the centre I was thinking how on earth is he going to do that. Good luck Ollie.👍
Thank you Oliver, love your Sunday morning videos. That was a job and a half well done👍👌

Well you certainly showed that box turner a lot more care than it's owner has. You should have included a grease cartridge when you packaged it up just so they know what one looks like !
😂
...YOU BETCHER LIFESAVERS...
yes mate for sure but i think you would have to include detailed instructions on it use and how you would need a grease gun maybe have to include one of them and a recommendation to a good maintenance guy to go along with is Cheers mate
Most farmers just want their equipment to work with minimum maintenance.
Interesting how they treat expensive equipment.
This machine is old, probably older than me. Things just wear out eventually
I like that you show the video clip of the rotator in use. It helps to see what's going on when you receive the equipment "in bits". I really liked it when you showed the animation of the baler and its flywheel the other day.
Also, would it have been an advantage to face the welds off of the gear and shaft in the first place rather than gouging?
The weld wasn’t so much an issue, more what it was very tight/seized on
Those hoodies must be bloody good. You start off wearing it and end up in short sleeves ! I enjoy your videos mate. keep them coming.
Your shop is such a happy place with all the music, applause, and laughter
A first-class job again Oliver, you video everything, warts and all and your ability to find a solution to unexpected problems and produce the best work possible is amazing, there is little wonder you are getting work from further afield, Bodge it and Scarper Ltd will be out of business in no time.
Your type of repair really is great. I work as a volunteer on a canal restoration. We do so much in. A similar vein.
Thank you !!
That’s a lot of work for what seemed on the face of it a straightforward job. Well done 👏🏻
Old school Engineering with none of the American bullshit, dark glasses & silly hats on back to front, good job mate 👍
Good morning Oliver, another belter is here
Hi Oliver, thanks for another great video mate, getting the old pin out opened up an unseen can of worms for you, but that's the name of the game in your line of work.

Really felt for you on this one. A real fighter the whole way.
You always have some interesting projects to post. Keep posting, I like watching them... Thumbs Up!
It Dont matter if some people might think it's abuses at the end of the day. it's your machinery, not anyone else's great video as always, fella 👍
42:20 you are great at welding, perfect job! Lot of work for this repair..
Another great video. Thank you again Oliver!

Quite the battle there! That will warm you up! You won! 🎉
Another “better than new” job. Nice work!
Morning Oliver, just in time to watch, before I go to my shop, very inspiring mate, thaanks for sharing, have a great one
Certainly earned your money on that job Ollie!!👍👍
Great to watch as always. Maybe could have indicated the internal bore from the outer cog (unworn inner part of the teeth). That would ensure the inner bore was concentric with the outer cog. The inside may have worn unevenly and no be any longer central.
Another great video Ollie, craftsmanship as usual
Nicely done, agree on the quoting, If I have to quote it usually means the customer is asking around and wants it done cheap. So I just quote very high to cover things you just can't anticipate ... just in case !!

Nice job, from central Florida USA!

Fascinating video. Love the way you approach your projects.

Also as another option you could have run a face mill across there to clean that up and saved the beautiful Wohlhaupter head for when only that tool will do.
Thanks for the video. You do a brilliant job.

Morning mush, good work as always 👍
Another brilliant piece of work well done let’s have some more 👍👍👍👍👍
You’ve earned your money on that job true professional 👍
Oliver, interesting repair! Hope you video the second piece you need to repair, would be interesting to compare the two repairs. Thanks for bringing us along.
I’ve done the second one already. Unfortunately I didn’t video it.
@@snowballengineering
Did the job go easier?
What a battle Oliver marvellous result
Very interesting thank you. That’s a lot of labour for a simple construction, must be borderline economical repair.
Struggle to watch you barehanded with that angle grinder, I had an industrial accident when i was your age and has badly impacted me for the last 30 years, good that you watch your eyes and ears and lungs, but fingers and backs are vulnerable too.
Quality workmanship Great video
Excellent final product, very good repair job.
Great repair 😀 when facing off could you have raised the table so the quill extension was less? Might have helped the chatter.
Thank you !! It is good to see a man sized grinder aft work!! 73 dan
Heating parts that are stuck together by rust (nuts, bolts, axles, etc) only works if at least one of the parts is heated to ~600C (dull red). At that temperature rust (FeOH, orange-brown) loses water and some oxygen, and turn into forging scale (FeO/Fe2O3/Fe3O4, gray-black). As it does so it shrinks, and the rust crystals break down to loose powder. *That* is what loosens the parts.
Great work on the box tipper Oliver
You made quite an improvement. Nice work.
Quite a lot of work for such a small job, We made a press at one place I worked with huge hydraulic rams from a old 360 degree excavator, Built it with three huge pieces of RSR with a 40 mm solid steel bed, 🇬🇧🇮🇪.

just like your work i learn from all the machinist i watch you are one of them thank you although i wont nothing to do with large jobs such as this for sure only small shop and like it that way CHEERS mate
Always fun to watch! Kinda wish I was near by so i could help out .
