Making a Custom Bearing Puller | Shop Made Tools
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 лис 2021
- In this video we are making a custom bearing puller! Removing a close fit bearing is almost impossible without the right tool. These bearing pullers we designed for our customer to safely and effectively remove the bearing cone from the shaft off a CAT 789 Dump Truck. For making these bearing pullers we are using bis alloy 80 grade high tensile plate. We show the step by step process including trepanning and boring in the lathe, drilling and tapping in the milling machine, cutting in the big bandsaw, welding on the locking bars and then chamfering and grinding to finish.
In this video we are using:
- TM-26120G Centre Lathe
- WIA 500i Weldmatic welder
- BM-63VE Milling machine

All of them!
Kurtis, where from and how much was that little air chamfering tool?
Mark from Melbourne Australia
@@L0RDNE0 this one? ua-cam.com/video/-E1NkckJdbs/v-deo.html
@@markfryer9880 hey mate that was an ebay find for about $90
Karen's work on that camera is just short of spectacular to say the lease captures every angle to show us exactly what you are doing your work is great as well i just like the bigger jobs as we get to see way more of how it is actually done thank to you both and the safety officer
Cheers for the feedback!
You are amazing Karen, what a great couple! Oh yeah, we cannot forget about Noname!!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering please let me work for you.
Yeah she really does!!!!
I've asked previously, so I'll ask again, what software package do you use to create, edit you're YT videos?
It might ‘only’ be a puller tool, but it was made with as much care and attention to detail as you put into all your other work. Nicely done! Thank you.
I find peace as I watch it, how many people are like me.
I agree. it's encouraging watching a skilled craftsman doing what he loves...Reminds me of Mike Rowe. I'm guessing he has watched CEE. If not he should..Remember the situation where there's a skyscraper being built. So the contractor builds a tall fence around the job site....The he drills a few holes along the fence so folks can view...There's something about useful and masterful work being done that is a part of our traits..Psalm 11
Sweet!
I'm so glad your channel grows fast and steady, the content is GOLD as always!
No lengthy filler dialogue and most importantly no splitting the video into a soap opera.
You guys are awesome!
35:05 nice beads Kurtis, they are a work of art. Another job skilfully captured by Karen’s lens. You guys are the best
Cheers mate! Thanks for watching
They looked like machine welds. As good a freehand weld as I have ever seen.
@@TrevorDennis100 too true, he's a gun welder
Certainly way better than I've ever produced.
There's no just a tool tools get very costly even if it only used for that one job and who's to say you wont need it again on a nother job
Holy crap that tap was going fast! Kurtis is a master at thinking the job through and planning the least-effort way to get the finished product. Karen, nice camera work and your planning of the 'story' and editing have grown so much. The 'making of the coffee' was a really clever touch. Really nice work, both of you. I'm an old retired software engineer living in an apartment, but I can't get enough of watching professionals taking care of business. And of course, homey, so adorable and full of personality. Cheers to all!
Plus the dog
I haven't done welding for over 60 years, and was never all that good at it. To me those beads your ran on this job look amazing. Nice job in total.
You got yourself some Dutch coffee there :D
"Douwe Egberts" is a really old Dutch coffee brand. You'll see that in almost every house with people 35 or older living in it.
Can't start my day without it :D
That's not a bearing puller, THIS is a bearing puller ! Great work which is informed by industry needs.
Kurtis Corcodile Dundee intensifies
You also own a Sykes Pickavant?
Friday morning, another CEE video to watch and as usual it didn’t disappoint. The welding was a master class and puts others to shame. Having just machined a 2” piece of high tensile steel I was amazed how easily you took the centre out of that plate. Keep up the good work. Love the outtakes. If Karen struggles to open the coffee just give it to Homeless.
The welding was a master class....true!
You three (I have to include Homey) make such a fantastic team. Wonderful demonstration of knowledge and skill put to work. You don't need an interest in machining to really enjoy your videos.
Wow, thank you!
Kurtis, you lay down a badassed bead with that MIG. Just a textbook perfect weld.
I've torched off dozens of bearings and races over the years. I never thought to make this type of puller. Thank you for the idea, Love your videos.
Thanks for watching
Just imagine the time you can save with this pullers. Man I fell satisfaction just thinking about it.
@@BrayleArroyo Yes, especially if you can put that on, and easily get a bearing off that is deep in a housing, or your torch is going to damage some other part.
After have watched 10 previous videos, i am amazed by the quality work you have done, so precision work and top notch videos by your wife, Karen. I decided to subscribe to your channel! As I desire to learn to be machinist and other things as well, like welding too. I'm from USA. So this will be learning tool for me, great job, Kurtis!
Thanks for subscribing mate!
If you are not following Abom79, you might try his channel also.
@@royreynolds108 For sure! The think I love about him is that he looks like a complete animal; but if you listen to what he's saying, and watch carefully what he does, you find out quickly that he really knows what he's doing. He also tackles some absolutely humongous, difficult, and crucial tasks.
I appreciate the thorough explanation of what this was and how it works. I’m not a machinist but I find this work fascinating.
Great editing as usual.
Thanks for the video.
Um abraço aqui do Brasil admiro seu trabalho .
Nice to see that "Douwe Egberts" coffee. It is a brand from my country, The Netherlands. It is a really old brand and well known. Enjoy it!!
Awesome it tastes good too
I guess Bill from Texas has Dutch relatives as the pack of coffee wasn't the export packaging. 🇳🇱
There’s not much I enjoy more than a Friday morning with a hot cup of coffee and a new CEE video! Other UA-camrs could really learn a thing or three from you guys! The quality of your videos is coming real close to the quality of Kurtis’ workmanship! Another great video you three!
I have always wondered why these videos are so relaxing to watch.
You love it you do. I can tell. Way you work is just cognitively on point.
Lovely job. I've only watched 10 minutes but you've answered my trapanning questions. Now I can relax and finish another masterclass video. Thank you for taking your time to produce these tutorials. REALLY enjoyed the bit with the coffee machine video being in the same vein as the engineering video.
Quite an ingenious bearing puller.
It sounds like the customer is going to refurbish their used bearings. It'll save them a chunk of cash.
I'm impressed with your method of cutting a ginormous hole in a big plate of steel.
They need to split the cage of the bearing, rendering it useless.
@@MoraFermi Not necessarily, they can cut the cage, remove the rollers, and then regrind the races to fit oversize rollers, and put in a new cage. Cheaper than a new bearing, and you can still reuse the cage if you simply prepare it and weld it up again on the cut. Big cost saving on those large bearings to recondition them, and provided you have not let it get too worn, you get a good number of refurbishment cycles as well before you need to replace them.
@@SeanBZA would anyone go to that much trouble?
@@marksmallman4572 If your new bearing is $1k, and refurbishing gives you half again at a minimum as much life for $300, it is worth it. For very large bearings all will be refurbished at some point, especially as the price goes over $5k, and lead times for new ones are measured in months. Some you have little option, as a new one might be a year or more to order, and you need the machine to run, while a refurbish might only take a week.
For some you just have to do it, as the original manufacturer might no longer make them, which is common in older precision instrumentation, as the bearing races are actually part of the machine, and you simply polish them and put in matched sets of balls. There your refurbishment means you select from a whole series of slightly different diameter balls, to get the right clearances in the machine.
@@SeanBZA Given how much work it is to pull these off and re-install, I expect there is very little economic reason to try to rebuild a bearing.. However, using a puller like this will make it less likely to damage the shaft compared to cutting off with oxy/gouger/etc, so to me, that's the value..
No sarcasm intended : impressed with the accuracy of the chalk line! - I've been using the nail on rust, or Tungsten tip pen on Blue paint...but then no two of our tape measures are the same !! You're a great inspiration. Slàinte Mhath.
You must really have the happiest customers on earth, Kurtis! 👍
Another great video!
Homeless likes popping bubble wrap just like the rest of us!
Cheers from Tokyo!

Nice work as always Kurtis. Karen's arc shots were very professional. This channel just gets better and better.
Wow, now I have finally understood how cones and angled surfaces are turned on a lathe: the whole base of the tool holder gets angled! You learn something new with every CEE video - and I don't even do metalwork or have a workshop... 😁😎👍
That coffee that you got from the dude in Texas is called Douwe Egbert and it is from Holland.
It's one of the best coffee in the world and I love it.
Great video as usual 👌
This is an awesome puller design. I would say that when I'm doing mechanic work, the hardest thing sometimes is getting good pullers and press plates that will work with whatever I'm trying to take apart and reassemble. Recently I've taken to making my own. Having the lathe and mill there to make custom pullers and press plates just makes my job so much easier. I'm rebuilding my Kubota tractor engine and rather than do like most guys and smash the old sleeves out of it with a chisel and risk destroying the block, I made my own puller out of scrap steel I had lying around and I made the pulling plate out of some aluminum to avoid damage to the block. You can't get these old blocks any more and people want stupid money for them so it's critical not to wreck them. The screw I used was from an old broken Snap-On kit I inherited from my father. It took me about half a day to make it but it saved me about $700, and it would've taken a week to special order all the pieces in, so it was well worth my time. It was a hell of a workout with a long cheater bar to pull those sleeves but it popped them right out no problem.
Ever hear of a “Clamshell” puller? Best investment I’ve made as a diff mechanic.
@@MH-es9rn No but I'll have to check it out. I find myself doing a lot more diff work as time goes by. Most people are afraid to do it because you can't just slap the part on and torque it down. You have to actually set it up and take measurements and stuff. 🤣
Let's not forget the real champ here the editor she gets it done.
Dawg has nothing to do with machining, but sure does put a big smile on my face. Thank you for sharing the fun.
Very neat welding work there.
Reminds me of some heavy welding on a cutterhead for a TBM I was inspecting in Italy. The guys were having a break when I first arrived. I had a good look at some of the finished work before they came back.
My first question was "where are the robotic welders?" They looked confused.
I was pointing at the other workshops. "Which one has the big welding gear?" I asked.
They just pointed to the three of them. "Welders" "just us".
I thought they were pulling my plonker. No way such heavy welding, of such high quality, was done by hand.
I sat for an hour watching them work, open mouthed for the most part.
Proper artists at work.
Never seen welding as good as that before or since.
You came pretty close though.
My father had a neighbour, who used to do fabrication at a paper mill, and his speciality was brazing the paper webs to make a continuous roll. Only way you could see the joint was to look for the line of yellow and blue on the shiny fine mesh stainless, where the heat had discoloured it, and the yellow was the silver brass alloy paste he used, to join the individual 0.5mm wires together.
Did that for over 40 years there, and even in his retirement he would go in and do this, on a contract basis, well into his late 70's. He did train a lot of people in the job, though most of them left after a few years for better pay, so he was always doing the training, and also some specialist fabrication when needed.
Don't think I could get to that level, I do not weld enough, and can do reasonably strong and ugly though. Filler and paint though can cover a lot of sins, and car body panels are not at all difficult to replace.
Had the same impression at the Tucker Sno-cat production facility in Medford Oregon, exceptional craftsmanship.
38:39 Wow Kurt I am amazed at how well you keep up your nails and skin on your hands!
Reinventing car repair tools love it.
Sooo glad that after watching "Making a Pair of Heavy Duty V-Blocks" this morning UA-cam highlighted this video As a note in one of your packages said "Interesting and Effective". Impressive how sharp and effective your large drill bits are. What a design you have created !! Writing this just realized commented on this episode a year ago. Great watching this for a second time.
Banana Man again, 13/10. I have had to make custom pullers and installers for these tapered roller bearings before as well. The problem I had was there wasn’t any room to pull the cone. Then there wasn’t a tool made to press the new one on.
Induction heaters are used but before that an old electric frying pan filled with oil to heat it to temp. To incraes the ID or chill the shaft and they just slide right on but you have to be quick either way
I've never enjoyed watching a hound tear bags to shreds as much as watching Homeless ...what a hoot!...I live in Texas, between Dallas and Tyler
So happy you guys like the coffee!!!! Gosh, didn't know you had a Cappuccino machine. Hahaha. Maybe next time I get this wild assed idea, I'll include some speciifically for that purpose.
Thanks for including in your video. I'm humbled.
Thanks for including Douwe Egberts 🇳🇱☕🇳🇱
About a month ago I viewed one of your CEE jobs for the first time and was overly impressed by the artful skills you have possessed in manufacturing & repairing metal products. Your welding is second to none! Looking forward to more Karen videos and the safety of Homeless (Homey) Just finished the video of Questions/Answers I had not seen. Very enjoyable in learning your working history of many talents in manufacturing & design.
Excellent workmanship. The welding looks like it was done by machine! Hope you have stamped your name on these.
Kurtis does some of the best welds I have ever seen.
he creates SOLUTIONS for customers.. invaluable
Ahhh memories. I flashed back to the recommissioning of a cotton gin and refreshing the bearings on some of the motors.
After the first time the puller (porta-power) and bearing came flying off at a rate of knots (the bearing left a nice dent in the wall) we tied the puller to the motor with some telecom rope and NOBODY was allowed in front of the shaft...
Good times 🤣👍
Amazing how much energy the pulling bolts can store with a Porta power pulling on them ain't it! Lol
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering
Oh yeah, no qualified sparky on site and all motors still wired in, the switching room looked like it had been raided by 13yos on crack.
Amazing work as always. Would love to get a video of them using your custom puller, would be awesome to see you're newly created cutting edge equipment in use!
I was thinking this also.
@@4thphaseofmalaise me too, I have no doubts that it,ll work though
This guy does not know how much talent he has, not very many men like him he is a national treasure
His customers know.
Excellent work young man.
Those were some mighty fine welds . Great camera and editing work. Really cool project to see you hammer out. Cheers.
Easy stuff mate 👍😎
You said jack that bearing cone off! Haha
very well done. Your pup really upstages things, besides learning, I enjoy the fact that this a family affair
Giggler's camera angles are always great.
Ingenious. I like to make a stab at what Kurtis is doing next at the start of each stage of the process.
I am getting most guesses right.
Not bad for a retired bank manager that has never actually seen a lathe run live!
Brilliant skills and fabulously addictive entertainment. I love the out takes where Kurtis "corpses".
haha good one mate thanks for watching the vids!
You have such incredible skills! That welding was perfect!
They do look pretty damn clean, right??
I love the outtakes at the end. That's how I feel my whole day normally goes.
What a set up. I had to gouge off 450mm bearings from a jacking house that tool would have made my life 10x easier
🎯I love your videos guys…. keep up the good work👉🕺🧨 From Florida❤️
Hey mate thanks!
I love everything about these videos.
From the machining, through the doggy antics and the infectious giggle of your wife.
Thank you.
Nice! Sitting here in my deer hunting blind waiting on a big buck and watching you work the magic!! 👍👍
I remember our dogs at Christmas went nuts over the wrapping paper. The saw us ripping it off and wanted that game for themselves. It seems as universal with dogs and the thing with cats and a box.
You and Karen are very skillful at what you do and you do some of the greatest millworker I have ever seen your skill is unmatched I can see that you take a lot of pride in what you do keep it up.
Some more exceptional work. You are a master fabricator welder and machinist . Karen’s mad video skills also so exceptional.Thanks for sharing .
Interesting project. Always entertaining.
So proud of you young Man ... no knife edges, all holes chamfered/deburred ... true craftsmanship !!! And yes, as an "Auditor/Lead Auditor" for ISO9001 and AS9100 you wouldn't qualify as a "1 Man Shop" ... but you have my sincere respect for your knowledge of what needs to be done. You have a lucky Customer !!! Kudos
I hope that was Karen making the coffee at the end of the video otherwise Kurtis has some explaining to do about his manicure 😂. Thanks guys, have a good weekend.
I loved the fact that it was the same style in terms of cuts/edits making the Coffee vs Making the Tool 🤣
Nah, that was Carl's bit on the side. Karen was recording. 😁
Some days that’s Karl , other days that’s Karlota
@@grilnam9945 Damn, I've been spelling -Carl's- Karl's name wrong. 🤦♂️ Sorry Karl. 🤥
I'm a Machinist and I go to the spa monthly.
Those are are some nice buttery welds. Looks like icing out of a piping bag.
Hey guys. Great stuff once again. Could you maybe do a short vid on what all the different types of inserts are and what they are used for. 👍
It's on the video ideas list!
Another one would be how that lathe works and what you do to do what you do. 👍
Try the Engineers Black Book for all of the explanations.
@@royreynolds108 What does that cost these days? If I am thinking of the right book.
Glad to see the out takes. It make me feel a little bit more normal.
The craftsmanship good to see, in a world where so much seems to be just thrown together and/or disposable. Also appreciate seeing the respect you show when viewers send small gifts, like toys for the Safety Officer and/or coffee for you and Karen. Strong work.
Woo-hoo my day is made, my favorite creators!
Thank you I needed a pick me up today and this fits just right!
Love you guys.
16:46 I've only ever hand cut small threads. The way this tap goes in is both impressive and horrifying.
I thought the exact same thing.
It's cheating! Lol
Yes hard on the taps. But UNC threads is odd in Australia, though I would guess that it is used because it is an old tap, and thus either there are a lot of them around unused and sold for a pittance, or Kurtis is always grabbing them off auctions in boxes of nearly new taps. Going to guess though the machine it will be used on though was made in the USA, so it has a mix of UNC and Metric threads and fasteners through it.
@@SeanBZA seems to be UNC because that is the thread the pulling studs have, maybe same for the bolts that hold the puller together?
@@notstonks20 Possibly, old unit that is the ship of Thesus, where every part has now been changed, but the new parts still use the old thread patterns. At least those threads will be easy to replace, as the insert kits probably are cheap, as they have been sitting on a shelf since the 1970's.
I have a few sets like that, came in the metal case instead of the plastic ones the metric use, and bought for around a tenth the price as well. Just going to be a bear getting new inserts for them, the only supplier only keeps a few around at a time, so included them with other orders, to get better pricing, slowly. Some of the kits had a date on them that was older than me.
Who ever does all the cameras and hard shots u get god bless u and thanks so much ✊
The solutions you so casually come up with never cease to amaze me.
Hi Kurtis and Karen,
Another fine video on well made shop tools. Karen, the start of the outtakes had me laughing with Kurtis's silence. That was golden. :-) Homey sure tore into that shipping package. Have a great weekend and you both stay safe.
Gotta love the way the steel supplier placed cardboard under the plastic straps to protect the steel.
Genius!
It is so the straps are not cut by the corners of the metal
@@columbo1966 I was going to say the same thing. Thanks.
Any tool a mechanic has that can really save the day is worth its weight in GOLD. Great job Kurtis.
This mans skill is second to none
I was concerned about how you measured that plate for the holes. You were using some defunct metric system, while we all know the only quality standard is bananas.
All the Bananas have gone North, none left here.
I think he knew how many little metric bits make 1 banana so he had a pretty good idea what size he needed.
He did use the real measurements for the bolt threads, 5/8 UNC.
@@tiredoldmechanic1791 Stolen from Joseph Whitworth but with a little Yank tweeking.
The older - and superior metric system. Bananas is fervcakes
Really enjoyed this instance of your flexing your tool and die maker chops, and using machines, fixtures, and processes you don't generally in your videos.
It takes someone with your experience, reasoning power and skill to come up with such an elegant solution - knowing how the removal process works and how to build the exact tool needed to facilitate it.
Imagine how much more efficient this will make this part your customer's business!
The hand and the eye become one! Enjoyed watching.
How nice would it be to have Kurtis as a buddy! Lol. Need something broken? Need something fixed? Need a special tool no one has come up with? Well he's your guy for the job. I've been going back and watching the older videos I haven't seen as of late. The massive boring bar was also a really good one. The care and detail in the work is just awesome. Keep up the great work Kurtis and Mrs. Kurtis!!!
Brilliant work young man. Those welds look like they were done by spray transfer, very smooth indeedy. Top video in every respect, best regards to all three of you from soggy England!
Great work as always both, cute little taper roller bearing! 😍 I have worked on bigger ( first time for me, Ref Cutting Edge Engineering fayre) we use Timken, 36 month lead time for the bigger ones 18"/ 450 mm OD from the US to the UK, though you can get them quicker at a huge premium.
Good to see high tensile plate being used, and other more suitable materials.
Stay safe all, and best regards from the Black Country. John.
JFC those weld beads are more perfect than when you're using the robot welder! Amazing.
Now that’s a bearing knife! Job done.
Very nice work guys !! These wil be a lifesaver for your customer I really like it !! The bloopers were GREAT as always !! 👍👍
Good morning! I like how this one started with the strapping, usually that's how they end too 🙂
🤣👌 Karen's trying to keep viewers on their toes
Nice. People who have dealt with removal of larger bearings can appreciate a tool like this.
Ahh I sympathise with Homless. Once you start popping bubble wrap you just can't stop.
I really enjoy your content! Thanks for another video, these were really cool to watch you make, and I appreciate the demo at the end.
Found your vids about 2 weeks ago and I can honestly say they are so cool to watch, the way you describe and show things is really educational and pulls you into the video really well. Awesome content and was waiting all week for this video, didn't disappoint.
Welcome to the channel!
Thanks for leaving the out takes and bloopers, it shows just how much effort and time these videos take.
You guys are so lovable - it's like "Foreplay in the shop"! Been binging on your vids since I found them a couple of days ago....!
Hiya Kurtis , When We remove the outers of a bearing We just run a pass or 2 of reasonably hot Mig Weld around the inside, they shrink like crazy then and generally just fall out or tap out with no effort
Nicely done mate, love the design. I had initially wondered how you were going to bore the cross bolt holes. Tike the cross bars better. Of course the out-takes are always better. Great camera job Karen.
Blooper takes at the end are too funny guys , what a laugh, 😂😂 pure happiness shared with so many, thanks guys 🏴👌
Back when I worked on heavy trucks, some of the best tools that made my job easy were the ones I made myself. With I had a lathe and mill back then. Nice puller, I'm sure as the customer is a repeat one he is happy with what he gets.
36:30 Well, if there's a taper you could make adapter rings which adapt them down - as long puller fits into the housing there shouldn't be an issue with that. :)
As always, lovely video! The closeup of the welding is impressive. I'm amazed at the quality you're getting.
A well deserved Douwe Egberts at the end of all your hard work!
Love how not one of those pieces of tap swarth broke. So satisfying
