As a retired Coded welder with over 50 years experience in MMA, Mig, Tig and Oxy / Acetylene, this is a good repair! Nice to see a craftsman willing to pass on his knowledge! Good man and Bollocks to the Thumbs downers!!
I agree.
I did this king of repairs for many years on a daily basis. I learned the basics from my father, and built on that. I always had the impression that anybody could do it. But the truth is, it takes talent, skills, knowledge, practice experience and the right equipment.
The hardest puzzle I had to do, was probably to put back together a brand new magnesium chainsaw casing after it got run over by a tractor. That got my skills stretched to the limit to get all the parts to fit right and true. But I saved the machine and the customer was very happy.
@@sailjunky7326 Yep, My Dad taught me too! He served his apprenticeship with Swan, Hunter, Wigham and Richardson on the river Tyne. You have to have a 'can do' attitude and always be hungry for knowledge also being unafraid to venture into the unknown! Don't be afraid to experiment and don't be afraid of failure! Learn by your and other peoples mistakes.
Sweet Triton Mo!
@@petehorsburgh4584 It was a Dominator 88 with a 1957, 498cc Doug Hele 90 bore Manx Norton engine, road registered and I rode it on the road.
No idea why someone would thumbs down!
THANK YOU for actually explaining what you are doing! I'm so sick of 99% of UA-cam channels that basically just show of that THEY know how to do something without actually explaining anything. Or worse, never saying a single word.
I'm surprised you used the method you did. I would have guessed you had cut off the damaged section leaving space to weld without affecting the mating face and welded on a length of tube of matching diameter and thickness.
The end result, especially considering the method, is outstanding!
Ever since seeing my dad re make a sprocket for my dirt bike when I was 9, I have been amazed at what ppl can build / fix . I now will attempt anything with metal.
Welding/ fabricating is so satisfying.
I'm not even into metal works, I'm a computer engineering student, I don't know how did these videos got recommended to me but I got hooked up on this, it is amazing watch welding, you just earned a subscriber, sir!
Man you killed it on this repair. Not only to be able to do it well but also do it that quickly is a real testament to your skill.
It's also that quick with the hands of a skilled welder. Knowledge and knowing how to be patient are key.
I honestly didn't know this was possible. Makes me want to get into TIG welding.
You should. Tig welding takes a day to learn, a lifetime to master.
At my old job I had to do this kind of repair all the time. It was a pain in the ass because the robots would always burn through this tiny 1mm tube with a 90 degree bend on it. Repairing that thin of metal is difficult enough but adding that annoying bend was the worst.
@@kyleglenn2434 I've yet to see anyone learn tig in a day, mig I've seen people pick up in 30min, tig not so much
@@jonathangarzon2798 I did in 2 days with previous welding experience.
@@proxypanda4156 I'm sure with some welding theory you can get any process down in at MAX 3 days
Excellent repair and very educational for the inexperienced. Explanation of the process and reasoning behind it is one of the many reasons I continue to follow you. Well done!
Wow, if I never saw this video and saw the repaired part I would've thought the customer replaced it. Nice job fella!
Wow. That was really awesome to see as a student wanting to get into the weld repair industry. Thanks for showing us. I really liked the content and would love to see more like this.
So you're NOT one of the shops that says"You can't fix this~you will have to order a new one"~! I knew a guy like you in my youth and you really remind me of him and he was also a Natural=Just like you. Great video and put me down for a subscription. Thanks.
Unreal speed and precision with minimal help from tools. Awesome job
Very nice work.
It's always a joy to watch a craftsman at work.
Been awhile since I’ve seen your work.
Glad you’re still doing business man
Stay blessed
Thank you very much for coming back. Awesome repair.
That was awesome! When the video started I didn't think that was the direction the repair was going to go in. Definitely glad that I watched this
Looks like you're going back to the old style of videos, LOVE IT!!
one word. TALENTED.
You appreciate us watching and we appreciate you sharing - thank you.
Great job Justin. The repair looks really good. Another happy customer !
No idea why this was in my feed but I love this stuff and you now have a new follower, nicely done....👍
Wow, so cool to see how a pro would go about repairing something!
I didn’t think you could do a “fill” on this, but now I know.
Thanks Justin.
This is why I llove fabrication and welding, you can make something or repair it with the right knowledge. Amazing work
That was some awesome work, expertly finished!
well done bro. Nice to see craftsmen willing to do a job like this.
Justin, thanks for the video man! Very detailed! Can’t wait to start tig welding!
More of this!! Great work! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for showing us this. It's a great technique to salvage something impossible to find parts for.
Teaching myself how to tig weld and plasma torch right now. Saw this and now I know how to repair that corner of the tranny oil pan! Thank you!!!
It's always amazed me the results which can be obtained from basic hand tools like files and die grinders when one takes their time.
Nice repair!
If you like good work with basic tools check out Alan Millyard
Khyber pass is a testament to that
Thank you for imparting knowledge on us. I learned to weld aluminum because of your help all that time ago
What a well-done, informative piece. Your voice-over was concise, informative, and did not meander. I really enjoyed it!
oh wow...would you look at that........TOCE.... why am i not surprised!!!
Thanks for getting right to the problem with no extra unnecessary blab. Good work.
This looks like it was both challenging, fun and satisfying to do. Well done my man!👍
1.5 hours wow! Looks great! Nice detail in the video also with the describing what you where doing and why. Thanks for the video
Enjoyed watching a craftsman at work and very well presented video...thank you for downloading!
Most fabricators would either say no to the job or still be thinking about it after 1.5 hours. Top notch work. This UA-cam channel is better than any resumé
That's some really great work! As a beginner welder it's left me a lot to aspire to.
this is true craftsmanship in action. good job.
You sir, are one slick fixer. I loved watching this!
Never welded anything in my life, nor likely too, this was amazing, fascinating, marvelous, throughly enjoyed the show now subscribed.
nice job. did a ton of this kind of work for many years. watching this really brought back memories. thanks for sharing.
You are one of the best welder/ fabricator I have ever seen.
That's incredible. Nice work my friend. You're an artist.
Nice repair! I never would have thought replacing that missing chunk with weld would have been viable.
Of course it is. That's repair welding. lol
@@cuteface88 I would have tried to weld in a chunk of tubing.
@@cuteface88 don't be that guy
@@richardschofield2201 No problem, Dick.
Awesome video. Great craftsmanship!!
Your skills remind me of an old Sunday School teacher of mine. He worked in the prototype shop for a defense contractor. Basically if it was rocket powered, it was built there. From Stinger missiles to Poseidon missiles, Tommy had worked to make them a reality.
Tommy who?
Do it all the time. It's fun bringing stuff back to life.
That's pretty cool, I'm a below beginner booger stick welder.....love that yall put out these videos
I learned something from this, that's a good way to start my day. Know that the AL would not stick to the steel is good....knowing what will happen if you pull and arc to the steel is good to know also.
Really good for all manual machining. Appreciate the work.
Justin, outstanding walk-through on an "OMG" repair. Great delivery on thought process, technique, and execution. My mentor taught me 40 years ago, "the mindset for repair, and the mindset for build new are different". This was an outstanding repair delivery. Well played my friend.
You must have had a hack for a mentor. This guy is extremely dangerous. Anyone who has spent any real time in the shop would run from people like this. He would never ever work in my shop. And neither would you.
Awesome repair, loved the process of repairing something that almost looked unrepairable , well done thanks for posting!!
This is absolute art! Great job!
Nice to see someone actually doing stuff instead of telling us all about their viewer gifts or comments. Great video, thanks
Excellent work buddy. Omg that turned out excellent. I would never have thought about the stainless sleeve inside. Saved a huge headache grinding.
Nice work. Thanks for sharing
You're good at what you do man!
Very well spoken for the general perception of a welder.
As a retired aircraft welder ex RAN Fleet Air Arm that is a great job IMO. Well done!!
Nice work. Well done!
Great job. Fine finish!
Thank you for posting, nice work.
Nice job. Made it look easy
Brilliant work!
Nice work. Thank you for this video.
You are a MASTER!!!!! Well done!!!
So satisfying to see him build it back up
Excellent work...thank you
Excellent welding and rebuilding!
That was a beautiful thing to watch.
Great repair! Thanks for the insight!
Wow! Very well done!
Attention to detail is always appreciated personally when I see this type of work I always go back regarding price
That would've taken me three days and it probably would not have turned out as well. Nice hand work.
Excellent job, clever idea.
Beautiful job Sir
You are awesome 👍🏻 i just bought my fist tig machine and your videos really helpt me start up.
Beautiful work as always
Great job turned out very well there. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend weld on my friend
Hey love your style and work on the channel. I subscribed a month ago after you teaching me everything about tubing. You got me on my way. Thanks for the channel.
Good job Bob.
You are an artist buddy
Great weld. And Steps procedure great finish
I love jobs like those. I did a few Harley crankcase and covers. I did a head for a Harley. After it was resurfaced worked perfect. I like watching a welder that know what he is doing great job.
Damn!!! 1.5 hrs. You are quite skilled
Unexpected. Thanks for sharing this technique
Super satisfying watching this video. I really want to practice doing this kind of welding with my powertig.
Mate your definitely very good at your trade love watching your work and videos always learn new things from you.
Great workmanship 👍
I think your hands have some built in CNC program. Something to be proud of there. I love your pride in finish.
Nice work!!
Nice idea. Nice finish.
Awesome work man!
Nice work by a skilled TIG surgeon. Laughed a lot at the guidance to avoid pitting the steel or it'll be *really* hard to remove.
Really good work. Thank you.
Good work !!
I love watching a craftsman/fabricator at work. Great Job. I don't understand them but there are always haters out there.
