Outstanding video. I was a dealership mechanic doing primarily engine/transmission repair, (technician for those who prefer that term) & then built my own shop. The price of equipment was very discouraging. Prices you out of some market segments because less affluent customers just can't afford to pay what you have to charge to recover your investments.
So true, it's insane how much things cost to get going vs the amount you can charge before the labor prices exceed the value of the vehicle you're working on.
Agreed! I teach small engine repair at a rural Montana high school. I want to teach them more engine machining, but even beat to death used equipment is too much. I can't imagine trying to start a shop. I'm helping one student rebuild a Chevy 350, but the nearest reputable engine shop is hours away and outside of budget. Most machining is outside of any student budget. I'm trying to build the equipment so that the students can afford engine rebuilds themselves and so they can afford to learn most importantly.
I have always enjoyed watching your very detailed informative videos. Would enjoy watching you working on these projects and future ones. I came hete originally for the afm/dod delete videos but i enjoy the rest of them. Thank you.
This is the only video of it's kind on the internet. Very nice, I need to build one.

I love the creativity!!! Looks like something i would have built
9:??min) could make a T valve that flows back to reservoir, after pump.
Very inventive!

Thanks for tips
like to see it in operation
I may do another short on it at some point. That or perhaps do a video while explaining cylinder to piston clearance.
Bro sick!!!!
Dingle berry are fine after inspecting the bore
Only for a surface glaze breaker. They can't make a cylinder round or parallel again.
@@CrazedPerformanceRepair Many people do not understand that.
Then they shouldn't be using them until they learn it. @@kmcwhq
@@CrazedPerformanceRepair I wouldn't even use one as a glaze breaker
@@funone8716 They do work good to clean out large rusty bolt holes or something like a wheel cylinder. Perhaps a wheel hub housing to I suppose.
