      All 45 of us. By the way. The steal that has the primer on there. Start cleaning that off. That is what happened to your blade. That stuff is a coating almost as hard as ceramic. On wet days the steal company has to spray that on there so they metal doesn’t harder too fast and rust right of the oven

    Nice work on the plow attachment! If you're looking for ideas weld some webbed steel to the top of it for steps into the skid steer so you don't slip. Possibly weld a couple steel d ring links or chain hooks on the corners of the bucket in case you slide into the ditch and need to pull it back out.

    You may have seen some steel building rigid frames, with a reddish color. These rigid frames are covered in red oxide primer. This type of coating is an exterior and interior rust-preventative solvent-based metal primer for steel. Red oxide primer is a base-coat paint that is specifically for use on the surface of iron and steel as a top coat. However, red oxide primers are red for a reason. The red color naturally hides any signs of rust. This can make it harder to see and resolve any rust issues your building may be having.

    Less speed and more pressure wil help you drilling holes. The bigger the diameter, the lower the speed. Using holesaws I really recommend Whürt instead of Bosch. Being a welldriller i use them every other day drilling through wellcasings. Get about 35 44mm holes with Würth compared to 5 with Bosch in 4.5mm casing.

    at 37.30 minutes, a tip i saw recently for storage of long steel is to make a frame of concrete mesh, you can fit several pieces in each hole and if it's on the bottom you don't need to pull everything out, only say 5 to 10 pieces for example. might not work so well for short ones, but looked handy for longer lengths
    egsample

    Hydraulic hoses, what a find. If you count how many hoses you have on your machines, you will use many of them. When you cut steel with your saw or drill, the waste is called swarf. Chips are potatoes cut into long strips about 1/2” square and fried😊 Vevor core drill. Don’t let the cutting fluid run out, it will blunt the cutting tool in an instant. The soviet steel looked hard when you tried to saw it. The sparks were white not orange. Try to file the steel with a file. You will see if it is hard or not. The yanmar final drive, you must strip it down to at least see what is broken. It will make a good video. I was going to say, get a hydraulic cylinder for the plough. You have hoses and an auxiliary connection? Another very interesting video.

    About the steel shown at 1:15:09, the Number 355 could refer to steel type S355. Normal mild steel (at least in Germany) is called S235, the 235 referring to the minimum yield strength (Mindeststreckgrenze in german). Thats the point where the steel is deforming without going back into it's original form. S355 is hardened steel, harder to bend and work with, because you need more power to deform it. Maybe thats the reason why your drill press had to work that hard.

      You are absolutely correct. S355 has a higher tensile strength and hardness comparing to a regular S255 so it might be the case.

    Now you need to make a set of tracks for this thing!

    Man you deserve way more subscribers, I know you get inspiration from A.C. but he is making the big money and his channel is suffering from it, he's gotten complacent. Your stuff always entertaining and educational. Appreciate the videos.👍

    I just wait till the snów is gone again, but somehow Poland and Estonia has massive snów fall difference

      Poland is more south. I assume that's why

    Great video. I enjoyed your adventure with the grease pit floor repair just as much as the plow build. Very good solution to jacking up the skid steer. It would have taken me all day and a lot of cursing to think of that solution.

    Usually red primer on steel means its Hardox (wear resistant steel for excavator buckets etc...) usually there are more marks on steel like white letters reading Hardox or SSAB. Does it cut good ?
    Mild steel is usually "natural" mill scale finish.

      @Ants_Pants  10 місяців тому

      None of that, cuts really hard

    I couldn't even guess how much money is there in hydraulic hose and fittings, but I can tell you this, It's a lot of money sitting there. You are also right when you say that you will never use all of it. Maybe you can help someone in need some day. Now, to watch the build.👍👍👍

  • @william6526
    @william6526 10 місяців тому +2

    Those hydraulic hoses are worth thousands of dollars if you had to have them made. I'm not sure where or how you got these hoses but I sure wish I had a place I could score a deal like you got. I would go back with a big enough trailer or truck and get all the hoses. You could put the word out you've got these hoses and I'm sure they would sell or you could use them for trading stock for things you need.

    • @Ants_Pants

    a set or steal tracks would serve you well, with your skill set you could make a set if you cannot source a used set. also your tire chains need to be running on the outside of your tire and not in the tread cavity. hope this helps
