I can't speak for the rest of the people here but I'm interested in hearing more about your family history.
Thanks for your time Mr. Pete.
Thank you, I hope to get that out within the next month
Tool #2 is used for stringing tennis rackets. When installing the cross strings it grips the working end against the already installed strings that would be perpendicular to it.
Yes; Amazon have them as "Klippermate Double String Clamp/Flying Clamp for Tennis "
I really enjoyed the extras today. I loved the picture of you recreating your parents photo. With regards to the wooden teeth on the bevel gear, it could beade that way, as the weak link in the system, to stop major damage if the system locks up.
Might also have been an attempt at noise reduction?
JIM🎉
I'm looking forward to seeing a little bit of your family history. Every family has a history and when all combined it become America's history. It's the people in the middle that are still with us that connect the previous generation with the present. If they pass before telling their story it's lost forever. Have a great day Mr. Pete and thank you!
👍👍👍
Thank you for continuing this series👍👋👋👌👌. I just love it. If my dad were alive, he would be glued to these episodes. My fascination with odd tools came from his passion.
Glad you enjoy it!
@@mrpete222 I know you have been disappointed that the viewer numbers are not as high as other video content, but you have a dedicated hard core group following on these ‘what is it’ mystery. I speak for many when I say ‘Thank You’ for not giving up on these. I also
really enjoy the side trips... going beyond the ‘shop’ and into the larger world, such as recent family history videos.👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻
@@jenniferwhitewolf3784 my thoughts Exactly..
No truer words could be typed and sent ,Thumbs up to you MR PETE from the Finger Lakes of central NEW YORK.@@jenniferwhitewolf3784
The picture was too precious for any words... Other than "too precious"! Well done Mr. Pete. Very well done. 😁👍
That photo of you with the old gas pump reminded me that there used to be one like it in the '60s that the family passed regularly. The operator said he could use it during a power failure but used the regular electric pumps exclusively. That was the only serviceable one I had ever seen. As a child I was fascinated by the long wooden handle to pump the gas up and that it filled the car by gravity only.
👍👍
Mr. Pete, we live just a few houses down from your parents' old house. Wish we could have seen you in person! Thank you for the history lesson. Were you able to check out the Cedarburg History Museum across the street? They have some great artifacts from the mill like the old hand written ledgers. I also liked the cork press since I work in a laboratory and we still have those for tapering corks for laboratory glassware.
That is so awesome, I’m glad you contacted me. Yes, we visited the museum and spent quite a bit of time in there with the curator. We donated some of grandpa‘s original blueprints to the museum. Hopefully they will be on display sometime. We visited Cedarburg often when I was a child, perhaps up to the age of 15 when grandma Hilgen died. I went to the Rivolli theater many times. Even took the inter urban from Cedarburg to Milwaukee probably the very last year that it operated, about 1949.
I will be making another long video on Cedarburg in the future
Hi Mr Pete, I think apple wood was also used for milling gear teeth. Keep up the videos!
A few years back I toured the Du Pont Black Powder Mill in Brandywine, MD. I was amazed at the power a relatively small stream could generate. If I remember rightly there was a gear much like that driving the powder muller.
Thank you, that was interesting
Old magnificent architecture like this is so underappreciated. Thank you for the presentation.
Glad you enjoyed it
Always enjoy the history and photos of your travels Mr. Pete.
As regards the wooden gear teeth, originally all mills both wind and water had entirly wooden power trains, it was the carpenter that devised all the enginering principles that we know as machinists engineers, and chronologist.
Thank you for that
I thumbs up all your videos before they even start, you never disappoint Sir! Wish I would have had a shop teacher like you when I was a kid
Wow, thanks
My fathers family moved over here from Scotland in the early 1700s. They were awarded a bunch of land in the North Carolina area for their efforts in the revolutionary war.
My moms side also from Scotland fought on the wrong side of that war.
I love hearing and learning about history.
👍👍
Generally the stud doesn't get harmed from that style remover/installer, but anyone who uses them regularly would also install the stud and run a chaser die on it just to be sure the threads are good. That face should unscrew from the body to show the ramps and rollers. You need to take them apart now and then to clean and lube them. The pinion depth mic looks to be a factory made one, The steps on the hubs are so it fit's a few different units based on bearing race sizes and yes it should be free to rotate because you need the tip of the mic to float so it sets square. Beats the tar out of the old, install pinion, look at pattern, remove pinion, install a shim, test fit again, repeat until correct. That cork press is interesting. Probably good in a small bottling operation. The small mills like that are getting scarce, there is what remains of one in the next village west of me, they used the Otsquago creek to power a lot of businesses there. Feed mill was at the top of the hill, next door was a cabinet shop then a cheese box factory, and at the lower end they had another mill that used a vertical turbine instead of a wheel.
👍👍👍👍
I would guess that if you have come to a situation where you need to remove the stud then its pretty well no longer any good , so extra damage will make no difference . But what a great idea . I remember on my apprenticeship an old boy had to remove a dowel pin without a threaded hole . He drilled a hole below it and put a thread into that and then put in a grease nipple and pumped the dowel out with grease . It was very impressive .
That gear is fascinating why wood ? To avoid sparks in the mill as dust explosions are devastating , Ah you covered that aspect later on . The level of precision to make such a gear is extraordinary and if those teeth have an involute form , that shows a level of mathematical skill which is intriguing too , there were some great engineers back then , "We stand on the shoulders of giants ."
👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@mrpete222 p
Yes, the grease gun trick. The ultimate way to break loose a stuck piston. Just need a grease fitting put in a spark plug body.
Absolutely love the family history! Thank you for sharing 🙂
😄
You'd want to grab the stud on the unthreaded shoulder portion to remove/installl. It will mess up the thread some if you just grab on the thread. They are nice if your just replacing them
Throughly enjoy the history in the area where your family was from. Well done
As I recline here with coffee in hand I enjoy another educational video from Lyle. Thank you Sir, great way to start the day.
So nice of you
Perhaps another reason for the wood teeth is to make sure metal particles don't mix in the grain when milling occurs. Just a guess. Fantastic video Mr. Pete, the part about the mill especially. Oh, and corks, my corking machine when I make wine compresses the cord and plunges them into the neck of the bottle all in one step. But I can see how that fourth item would be advantageous before the device I use was invented.
Snap-On makes a stud puller that uses threaded collets that get tightened into a body that looks something like a socket and is driven with a ratchet or other socket driver. Regarding the pinion setting tool, the discs that are fitted to the ends of the round body can be removed to be replaced with different sizes for different applications. We had them at the AC dealership. Pinion depth is traditionally set by coating the bevel gear teeth with prussian blue (or similar medium) and turning the ring and pinion gear and reading the print on the mating teeth in a few locations around the ring gear. With the larger tractors, having the tool was a great labor savings over working on smaller vehicles like automobiles. I loved your Cedarburg documentary! Your grandparents house is absolutely beautiful!
👍👍
In addition to the 3 reasons your gave for the wooden gear teeth, another is noise reduction. What a magnificent house your Grandfather built! Love that veranda, a perfect place to relax with a G&T and visit with passing neighbours.
Well said!
Really enjoyed the bevel gear, growing up in grain elevators I thought I had seen it all but never this! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Most studs are tossed today as they stretch at least on heads. Didn't know that until watching a show on Motor Trend. I always liked the visable gas pumps. My folks to me to Washington DC and Mount Vernon in 1973. We went through the Smokey Mountains national park. We were getting low on gas and that was the year of gas shortages. Dad pulled up to one of those old country store gas stations where the was nothing else. He asked the guy if he could fill up the tank or was it rationed? Guy said no shortage here. As the guy filled the glass top I was glued to the window so dad explained how it worked. Such an experience that I remember it 50 years later.
Very interesting. I remember that myself when I was a small boy on vacation in rural northern Wisconsin.
Wooden teeth as well will work with water as lubricant on them, and will not wear the cast iron matching gear as well, plus the whole easy to replace if worn thing. By me those teeth would be made from Ironwood or one of the native teaks, or from one of the other hard Acacia family trees. Wood so hard that a parrot perch made from it is still fine 10 years later, despite the best effort of the parrot to destroy it. Softer wood lasts around a day before it is destroyed.
Very interesting
I love your videos Mr. Pete! It is awesome to see your old photos and hear about your history. Reminds me of when I was a youngster back in the 50's and early 60's. My grandpa and grandmother owned a laundry mat in Tatum, New Mexico. We would go visit and even at a young age of 6 or 7, I was intrigued with the boilers and machinery behind the walls in the back room. And I still remember the long row of wringer washer machines and the huge driers. I'm thinking they used steam and radiators to create the heat for the driers....
👍👍
Hey Mr Pete, new subscriber here just finished the 2014 frying pan pattern making casting planton plate you made back then. Glad your still making great informative videos!
Remarkable & glad to have found your page
Mark M.
Welcome aboard! You have about 1500 videos to watch her in order to catch up, L O L
Very interesting mrpete , i really enjoyed your video and your talk .
Thank you! 😃
I enjoyed all of the videos, I love seeing the old mill.
Thanks
Slightly off subject, but in the South, pitch pine knots were often used as underwater bearings in grist mills to support rotating vertical shafts, with oil in the pitch pine serving as a natural lubricant and flowing water around the bearing as coolant.
Love the family history you share, it reminds me of my aunt's and uncle's stories. This spring, one of our kids graduated advanced training at Fort Leonard Wood, so we took a trip to Missouri and wandered around the Ozarks for a bit. We stopped at several springs and old mills, but the favorite for my wife and I was Meramec Spring Park. They tell the story of the spring, town, and iron mine, furnace and forges located there.
Awesome, I suppose that is near the caverns?
It's about 32 miles SW of the caverns, 5 miles SE of St, James, MO. Well-worth the $5/car admission and my missus liked it as well.
... and there is also an agricultural museum, but it was closed when we went.
Thanks Mr Pete.
Tanya Tucker wrote a song with a line that said, " They baptized Jessy Taylor in Ceder Creek last Sunday " I guess at that point he had been through the mill.
lol. I remember that song.
Great information on that gear very interesting. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.
Thanks for watching!
Love all the pictures of the mill and hearing about the history of your family.
All the best MrPete.
👍👍
Definitely enjoyed the pics and talk for the last half of the video.
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you sir that was an excellent video . I'm a finish carpenter and I've worked up in Cedar Burg many times. In the 80s . Found memories. Good health to you sir 👍
👍👍👍
thanks for the video mrpete, i realy enjoyed your family historie extra,s.
cheers ben.
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely house and mill. Loved to finally see another gravity feed gasoline pump with the glass reservoir at the top. I believe those held 10 gallons max. Back in the day when Ethyl was "Ethyl".
Darn sweet to have those photographs of yourselves in the same place as your parents !
👍👍👍
The historical ending was a wonderful addition to the video Mr. Pete.
A buddy of mine has an old Schumacher, Boye & Emmes lathe he acquired with the property he bought. I'm trying to talk him into restoring it soon. The patent date is August 26, 1902. It's pretty rusty but I think it can be made beautiful again. I was amazed that it has a quick change gearbox plus a 3-step leather belt drive unit.
👍👍👍
on long studs you slide it past the threads. that's one of the reasons for the hex on the end. if you need to remove a short stud just figure on replacing it, but usually you can just chase the threads. the end of the sprage assembly is usually held on with a tension ring. you should be able to use a punch from the other end to pop it out. they are meant to come out by hand. also the very end should rotate separate from the main body so maybe stuff the hex in a vice and work the very end with slip joint pliers.
Thank you for that information. I very much want to take it apart and show it in another video.
long time ago I visited a water powered grain mill in Ohio. a couple had bought it and started restoring it. They gave tours and had a gift store. It was really neat. as they actually could open the water gates and it would run the mill. There was a wood saw section also that was not restored yet. I went back several years later and it was all abandoned. Sad
At first, your comment made me very happy. Then I started crying.
About the gearwheel: wood has another big advantage: it widely dampens the sounds and shakes of everything. With wooden bearings (well. kind off) and not everything running true, it is very important to keep everything working well and so a little flexibility in the gears help a lot.
We have them in our (even older sometimes) mills here .Both windmills and waterdriven-mills. I'm Dutch... and am a trained miller.
👍👍👍
I also enjoyed the extra stuff, many thanks from the UK :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Back in the 90’s I work at a Chevy dealership and the corvettes of the times had an all aluminum center section for the ring gear and pinion, it was the only way to set the pinion height because of the expansion of the aluminum case to get the correct tooth pattern once up to temp.
Interesting
I own a set of stud remover and replacer like # 3. I have used them in automotive work, the damage to the threads is quite minimal and normally turning a not over the threads can easily be done without thread chasers. This particular design spreads the load out over the entire length of the stud that’s why so little damage there are 4 strait knurled rollers that grip the stud when the cam action is applied with the ratchet attached to this socket.
This set is one I treasure
Yes the studs normally get damaged during removal with any method. Getting them out without breaking is the huge blessing. On rare occasion a double nut on the threads can work.
Number 2 , is mabey a plier for fixing badminton racket. I saw one on German ebay
I was just thinking it looked a whole hell of a lot like a badminton stringing clamp
Loved the Cederberg mill coverage.
Thanks again, love your channel 👍
Glad you enjoy it!
I would love to see the history of your family, my grandfather worked for RCA in the 40s and is the reason we have color Tv today. He helped create the double sided circuit board. It allowed,HEAVY VOLTAGE ON ONE SIDE and low voltage on the other. You talk about a spark 😂 a FLYBACK CONVERTER would knock you on your you know what, unless it kills you. It also heats up MERCURY which is no longer available because of the dangerous chemicals. But history or family history is so interesting in my mind. We are all talented in several ways. My father and family taught me skills I still use today. I only started watching UA-cam 5 years ago and I look at your other videos from 10 years ago.I am an expert in electronics and plumbing. With your help MR PETE YOU ARE THE REASON I purchased and restored a SOUTH BEND HEAVY 10. You taught me how to sharpen a turning tool among others. Thank you for all you do and please keep the videos coming. I get excited every time I see a new video. You are an absolute treasure that just keeps getting better. I just made the 10/24 new nut for my cross feed and the TAP was China made for 6 bucks. Go figure NOW IM BABBLING 😂 enjoy your weekend and as always I hope you and your family are well.
Thank you very much for that interesting information about your grandfather. He must’ve been quite a man. I’m glad I was able to help you over the years and you sound like you have developed a lot of skills. Glad to hear you are restoring a southbend. Keep watching.
Incredible Video Lyle,
Thanks Much. If I knew You Were in the Area I would have driven there to see You.
Not Sure when you were there But I was in the Milwaukee area Last weekend for My 49th Trip to the State fair..
Mike M.
The last time I went to the fair in Milwaukee I was probably 10 years old. That would’ve been about 1953. I always went straight to the vendor that sold those delicious Wisconsin cream puffs. My aunt and uncle used to take me from Cedarburg.
@@mrpete222 AHAHA In My 49 Trips, I tried them one time, was not impressed with the Messy sugar Bomb..
Thanks Lyle.
Always interesting content, thank-you.
What a picture!
Thank you for showing us some of your family history. Our country was built by people like them. JB
Yese
Very interesting historical info,Mrpete.Thank you
Pinion depth is indeed critical to ensure the ring and pinion are correctly engaged. Engagement is checked with machinist dye (I and many others prefer a thick Sharpie to mark the teeth). Of course it would be easy to turn a custom tool from round bar should you only need it for one job. BTW a "mohel" not a rabbi is the person tasked with ritual body modification and those tools have their own collectors among medical instrument historians.
Interesting comment. Quite a few people have mentioned using Prussian, blue, or even anti-seize as a die. I know remember what you said about the circumcision. In terms of who did it or who performed the little operation
I think anywhere water was present, wooden parts were used in drivetrains much later than you might think. As I understand it, ships used lignum vitae for propeller shaft bearings into the second half of the twentieth century. In fact, a quick search finds suppliers on the internet still selling lignum vitae blocks for that purpose. For these wet applications, the wood doesn't rust, and the water provides good lubrication. I think wood continued to be used for water mill parts for the same reason.
As for what wood was used, I know lignum vitae was used for bearings, and I imagine would also have worked well in this application. Someone on the part A video mentioned hornbeam, which is a definite possibility. It's another very hard, slow growing tree--otherwise known as Ironwood. Unlike lignum vitae, hornbeam is quite common in the US. Here in Virginia, the woods are full of it. Both woods are also used for plane soles, and other places where a very hard, wear-resistant and self-lubricating surface is needed.
Thank you for that information. I thought they were still using Lignum in ships. Maybe not. It was, however not a domestic would, that might have been a problem in 1855
There used to be a really cool old blacksmith shop in Cedarburg where they had demonstrations. Not sure if it’s still there
Great history lesson !! Thank you Mr. Pete !!
Beautiful mill building and interesting history.
In the Drawing, the micrometer is inserted the other direction.
If you ever get out to Pataha, Washington, visit the Pataha Mill which has all of the water powered grain milking machinery still in place (no longer functional). It's a cool piece of history.

That would be interesting
Another terrific video! Thank you
👍👍
In my experience when used properly the tool does not damage most threads. But most of the studs with threads that I see in the wild, the threads indeed, are damaged. Either from Bubba man handling it into place with a pair of vice-grips or from someone over torquing them.
Koken Tools makes a _large_ selection of both stud pullers and installers.
when i worked at the IH garage we had a set for doing pinion depth checking. only ever used it once. had 6 different sets of bearing bushings and 2 micrometers with set up zeroing jigs. a ring and pinion set would have the pinion marked either + or - and 3 digits. there was a chart for each model of differential showing nominal depth. you put the pinion with bearings on it into the case and measure the depth. compare that to the chart you then did the math adding the shim then +or- what was etched on the pinion to determine shim size. all diffs had at least one shim. by setting the depth and backlash you could reach optimal mesh as checked from the factory. funny thing is of the hundreds of diffs i've set up i think that was the only one i ever did this way. an old times showed me proper backlash was achieved when a cigarette paper would go through a gearset without tearing. how he discovered that he never said. i found neversieze worked good for showing contact pattern if i was out of the lead paste. also know hypoid gearsets require different contact pattern than bevel gears. mack rear diffs and many rockwell heavy duty use these.
👍👍👍
Yes the stud remover will damage the thread to some degree depending on how tight things are. I have a stud remover set that has collets similar to a 5C in design that are threaded and grip the threads without damage to prevent said damage.
👍👍
keep up the good work Mr. Pete!
Absolutely beautiful ! Tugs at my heart !
You and me both!
I had a device similar to your cork press that was for cracking black walnuts.
Wooden teeth act like a shear pin, so that if something jams in the power train, the thing that breaks is small, contained, safe, and easy to fix.
Shear pin i mean shear teeth
Mr. Pete thanks for sharing your family history. I noticed you placed yourself first when describing the picture of your wife and you on the porch. My english teacher Mrs. Martha Jones was very adamant that when speaking of others and yourself that you structure the sentence placing others first and yourself last. No disrespect to you Mr. Pete it's just only one of few things I learned in her class, Martha was my mom's english teacher so by the the time I entered her class room she was at retirement age but I was able to learn something from her that has been in my mind for many years. Tomorrow I will turn 64 years young. Thanks for all you do for us user of Mr. Al Gores internet.
I'm at 63 and learned long ago too that Others before "I" lol
I hardly ever hear people speak that way. Mark & I, Donna & I etc...
Kinda like the 3 Me's Me, Myself And I. HAHAHAHA
Mike M.
Pretend it’s a stud like me lol lol. A bit of good old humor.I enjoy your videos I learn something new on ever one of them it seems.
😄
Yes, the threads get mushed by stud removers like that. Not unusable, a die will clean them up, easy.
Another reason for wood teeth is that they don’t cause problems with the product you are making iron fillings in you flour is no nice.
Yes they do, and that is why they are called Stud Removers and not Inserters. A few designs won't even work clockwise, which of course denies the existence of left handed studs.
True
Old small towns usually had 3 groups of wealthy people. Hardware store owners, bankers, and funeral homes. All were pretty well guaranteed customers. 😆
Never thought of that. What about saloon and keepers
@@mrpete222 churches tended to hurt saloon business and generally lots of competition in the general goods supply so low margins.
I grew up along the Rideau Canal which runs from Ottawa to Kjngston in Ontario Canada. It dates from the same period. It is a unesco world heritage site. The town I grew up in is called Manotick and there is a famous mill there that is of the same era and limestone construction as this one. Take a moment to google it and I think you will find it interesting. I expect the wooden teeth are done simply because they had no means of machining metal teeth accurately. The could made custom hand planes to profile the involute teeth and the dovetail. Tooth replacement would be straight forward. Thanks for posting this. It takes me back to my childhood.
Thank you for the comment, I will look up that Mill on Google
When I first saw that gear, my thoughts were that they had no ability to machine a gear like that? And maybe that is the reason. All of the other information was suggestions by viewers
@@mrpete222 the owner of that mill, sometime in the 1800s, gave a tour of the facility following the wedding of his daughter. All the guests toured through the mill watching it operating including the bride. There wasn’t a big OSHA presence back then so all the machinery was exposed. The long train of the brides gown got caught in one of the revolving shafts and she was pulled into the machinery and thrashed about, killing her in front of the horrified wedding guests. They say her ghost haunts the mill still. And people think small town history is boring…
"But at least I don't beg for money" 👍 Thank God!
Some of these other guys are sickening with their begging.
I’m glad you noticed. They are unabashedly unashamed.
@@mrpete222 Exactly. I can't believe how some people will push absolute garbage products. With no shame whatsoever.
Number 4 is a Cork Sizer
My father was a pharmacist licensed in the late 30's and I have one that I believe came from grandfather
It rolls the cork to fit the bottles neck corectly
👍👍
Thanks for the sharing.
That depth gauge for differentials is specific to one type of differential. You actually don't need to use one. You can set the depth with lithium paint. You just paint the ring gear and see where the pattern of the pinion lines up. You want the pattern in a specific place on the ring gear teeth and that's really all you have to do. I've rebuilt lots of rear ends and never once used a depth gauge and I went to one of the top 5 auto schools in the world and they taught us to use the lithium paint method so that we could be sure of what we were getting. Now in some cases, hot rodders on a budget would purposefully set the pinion to ride on the outside of the ring gear which would give them a higher gear ratio so they could raise it from 3.75 to 4 plus. Not the best idea but it worked.
On the wood bevel gear, Ive never ever in my life seen one make sparks. Its more likely it was just easier to use wood gear teeth because if the thing was all metal, it would have been cast, machined and that would have been more expensive back then and then if a tooth broke which was common then it would have meant replacing the whole gear which would have been expensive and stopped production for a long time as well. The wood tooth was a good option because there wasn't much force being applied to the teeth and they could keep that going forever and repair it quickly so as not to hamper production. Those wood teeth would also swell up and fit real tight in that metal ring.
Thank you for the information about differentials. I have never worked on one, other than the one I show in my video on how they work. I never heard of that method using paint.
I agree with everything you said in regards to the wooden bevel gear. Originally my thoughts were that an 1855 maybe they could not machine a big girl like that. But yes, easily repaired if they sheer
In 1855, that mill must have been the most expensive building in town, using the highest technology available. There is no place like it today. A building that makes its own energy to turn the machinery to manufacture products that everyone in the county needed to survive. At times there would have been a line of wagons, horses, mules and farm families out front waiting their turn. How did they decide to do flour or corn meal? Were there other grains? Iowa and Illinois no longer grow wheat, but in 1855 there must have been plenty of food stocks to mill to make bread at home.
And I guess I forgot to say this was long before electricity. Sustainable energy, lol. That creek is so small, it is surprising it had enough head to do any work. Only six or 8 feet.
Loved that brass hammer video
Stud removers do damage the stud upon removing , usually already damaged . Reason their being replaced 😎👍👍
Apple wood was often used for gear teeth and wooden teeth ran very quietly with no lube If you ran cast iron you would need lube but the flour would cake things up - no pun intended !
Nice video and great family shots
👍👍👍
The stud remover will distort the threads sometimes. But not much that it ruins it.
I've had to use those stud removers before. Not all studs are all thread. A lot of them are just threaded at each end. Most of the time studs are removed by jamming two nuts together and unscrewing the stud. When removing exhaust manifolds, the studs tend to twist off where the top threads end, so there is no threads left to jam two nuts together. This is where that tool comes into play. You use this tool after things have already gone bad. Most people don't have that tool and use vise grips. Judging by the size of that one, its made for removing studs that hold down engine heads. If you do as the experts recommend, then you should always use new head bolts or studs when rebuilding an engine. Therefore, damaging the threads isn't of concern when using that tool.
👍👍👍
hi pete i live in lockport il and am interested in picking your mind about ilini park my dad sold a miniature train to someone who installed it at park as a amusement ride wondering if you remember it
Sorry, I do not remember that. In fact, I had never been to that park until I was probably 50 years old.
Yhank you pete fo getting back love your channel
these make me happy, so many thing I dunno what the heck they are
Number 2 is the pliers for some kind of crimping system, something like the pliers for F-type compression antenna connectors. But it's not for this specific one. Number 3 generally doesn't damage threads unless the pins are of soft material. Engine studs are hard
We always appreciate your efforts thank you very much🤗😎🤗😎
So nice of you
Thanks Mr Pete 🖖
If not hornbeam, they would have been made of osage orange. There are some foreign woods that might have been used, but if there was a wood that could be had locally, I am pretty sure that it would have been used to avoid the cost of imported woods.
I agree. Those hedge Row trees were very common years ago when I was a boy. Farmers around here used Osage orange for shear pins on grain elevators.
Could the wood used for the teeth be Lignum vitae? I have two pinion setting fixtures. One for air cooled VW transaxels and one for Saab 95,96,97.. I used them a lot back in the day. Setting the correct pinion depth makes for a quiet running ring and pinion.😊
I always thought that lignum was a very close grained wood
I especially loved the part about Cedarburg , and I am looking forward to the video you are making about your family there, do you know did the mill use a paddle wheel or turbine to produce the power from the water?
Sorry, I do not know that
The video he shows where the water is coming up inside the mill is where the turbine would have been. The turbine is removed, so the water is just coming through the housing
Lyle, studs are usually installed finger tight, at least for automobile engine assembly. If there is a nut on the base, then a torque specification is given. Some studs are pressed in as were rocker arm studs used on many General Motors engines. Some studs for engine blocks require sealant because they are threaded into a hole that is a through hole into the water jacket and it could leak and cause oil coolant to get into the engine oil as it creeps up the stud into the cylinder head. I would imagine this particular stud remover is just to save time from double nutting on a tight stud. I have never seen one of this style.
👍👍
The family photos are special beyond words. Please share any measure of your family’s American History with us. Sadly our family photos are lost, and they dated back to the late ‘30s. Nice to see photos of your lovely bride too. Thanks for not selling out to asking for money from viewers. That aspect of certain creators really rubs me the wrong way. Seems they start with good intentions but take a turn at some point. You have remained true to your purpose and many of us appreciate it very much. Cheers from Florida’s Space Coast.
