Waiting for that video when you are going to move out from your house into a proper warehouse where you do all these making stuffs with huge machinery all around. That would be so great to watch.
But there is something really cool and uniqe being in the small shop crowded with parts pices and tools from all the projects he has done so far, it has that special vibe of a place where it all started and where we got hooked on the amazing stuff he makes,keep it up 💪💪
I just want to say, after watching hours and hours of your content, I have to give you credit for the amount of physical labor you are willing to put into everything you do. Whether it's hours of machining or simply dragging a piece of steel or a one wheeled motorcycle up a hill and through the dirt, you never give up. I was like you in my youth and would be proud to have a son or daughter like you. Your work ethic is beyond reproach.
I’m Amazed on how well you are at machining parts for your projects “ OH I DON’T have this part oh well I’ll just make it “ And your new plasma cutter that’s a time saver I would like to see you have a Great shop someday but it takes time and money Good luck in all that you do and build really enjoy watching you Thank you
This project is gonna be insane, you have so much patience to machine those big parts. I'm so happy that you got the Arc Droid, it makes your job a bit easier. I really hope you have figured out the issue with the electric dirt bike, i want to see this thing ride so bad ! Anyway, keep up the amazing work and thank you for sharing all of this with us.
Just a few tips on machining. You should have your tool post set 90 degrees to your ways. You have too much tool stick out. Machine towards the chuck, not away. The birds nest of chips means to turn up the feed rate and take a deeper cut. Love the channel btw.
Also the bearing tolerances need to be tighter. Bearings should have at least a slight press fit. And there should be a radius on the axle shafts instead of that sharp 90 degree shoulder.
Chris it’s really fun and amazing to watch what you do !! Your skill set has really been raised to another level and I can’t wait to see what you are up to in the next 5- 10 years ! You are amazing and keep up the great work !!
Chris if you ever have to buy a straight shaft reamer again. You can set up your compound on the lathe to the angle of an existing Morse taper and cut it on the straight shaft. Then you just have to cut the flats on the mill.
I like you ideas on how to make your axles! Might be more beneficial for you to matching some bevels into the parts where you are welding! Better heat penetration and less cleanup especially on the hub faces!! Not to mention stronger!
Hi, I watch your viedos all the time and enjoy your work. I use to be a fitter for over 10 years. Now you have a good lathe, can I sugerst that you get yourself a set of micrometres, they are much more accurate for turnig then a vernier caliper. If you make your shafts with a 0.001" interfirence fit on your bearings, they will last longer and have less vibration, with a microeter, you will be able to achieve this with practise.
Best video so far 👌 👏 when you where building your own lathe is what drawed us to your channel but all your cool 😎 idea's and crazy contraptions have kept us watching and got to see a bunch of turning on lathe and milling on you mill, keep up the great work 👍, BTW, nice job saving that bent piece of steel. You must like going to the scrap yard ad much as we do!
Wow been years since I had you pop up in suggestions, got un-subbed somehow. Was back when you made your own lathe which I see you replaced and added a mill. Great to see you're still at it ! Square and hex collet blocks are super handy, way quicker than messing around setting up an indexing head for your keyways.
Love your wrk but would like to see you do completely new stuff like this project would be cool if you went shaft drive Like a shaft drive motorcycle set up on ea axle would be something completely new and new challenges ect. Super rad wrk no matter wat you build. It’s always a pleasure to watch
good to see how far you have come with your workmen ship keep it up great work. Instead of having a chane going back to the front how about a chane to a shaft drive to the front two be a bit safer and your bearing is meant to press on not slid on. I can see some movement happening there but what do I know
wow man I've been watching you grow for the last few years now and man you're really stepping up your game. your dedication to your projects without compromising the outcome you want is inspiring
You do amazing well in your little shop, your work is fun to watch to see how you overcome the hardship of the close confinements and electrical short comings, many channels I watch has the big mega shops and your builds are really pleasing to see how you make things work, Oh yes!! your neighbor has pissed off a lot of your fans over the years, lol
Very injoy able videos you Make I have watch omits all of them I’m glad your making a two seater doom buggy I’m in the Process making a VW clone doom buggy my self be has a engine in front
You should probably make it with two chains, one from the back to the middle then middle to the front which will reduce the stretch and if you can get them perfectly central you will have a chain with you if the drive chain breaks it beats a long walk back.👍👍
Sounds like the problem with your rotary table is the POT (potentiometer). It could be something else, but they are pretty inexpensive to replace. Best case it has a part number and you can match it up with something that plugs right in. Worst case you have to check it with a multimeter and do a little reading to figure out how to source and install a new one. Alternatively. If you set it to the speed that you like to wend, and then check the resistance of the POT, you can probably get a resistor and install it so that it just turns that speed all the time. A POT is a variable resistor / a resistor you change the resistance of by moving the knob.
I've got a custom Ford 9" in the shop good for an advertised 800hp. It's not as thick as this. These axles would hold 1000hp if the torsional load doesn't break welds. You could go half as thin again and still have plenty of meat.
Hey man when you go to file a piece on the lathe always do it from the underside of the workpiece with the pointy part away from you so if it snags it doesn't stab you in the stomach and gets pulled away.
Love your videos. Your a average Joe out there just doing and learning. No hating here when mistakes are made. Makes me think I might be able to pull something like this off myself one day.
Yea dude, you need to be in a much bigger shop with all the right equipment..you do such amazing work and build amazing shit...hopefully ur sponsors or people will reach out to ya and donate stuff or put ya up somewhere..you deserve it
Inner brakes on the axles this time?That way no worries about funky arm designs.I made axles and we had a straightner that was 2-V blocks and a press,and dial indicator=For your round stock.
Welding on thick material cools of the weld fast and could cause martensite to form depending on the steel alloy. So just to be safe preheating is recommended when welding thicker material to prevent brittleness.
It is good you got the lathe crash out of the way. No need to do it again, once is enough. Pretty damn loud even with ear protection isn't it? Nice work on the bent axle salvage. I have never seen your material rack...very impressive.
it may be more complicated but I would recommend some kind of diff in the front end or some way to take it out of 4wd or it will steer like a tank and be a Paine to drive
Hey Chris. Your link for your merch isn't working. Just to let you know. Thanks for the vids. And your a very talented young man. Great work skills. Thanks again. Pete.
Replace the potentiometer (speed switch) on your welding positioned it’s a cheap part and easy, just check the value on the existing one and order from amazon
damn man...thats so much work...i would have gave up long before all that and adapted something else, or cut an ATV axle in half and welded the sprockets to each side lol
Waiting for that video when you are going to move out from your house into a proper warehouse where you do all these making stuffs with huge machinery all around. That would be so great to watch.
me too!!
He is about 425 thousand subscribers away from that point but I'm confident he will get there !!
1 million subs should sustain that goal ... plenty of the other channels I watch really blossom around a million subs ....
But there is something really cool and uniqe being in the small shop crowded with parts pices and tools from all the projects he has done so far, it has that special vibe of a place where it all started and where we got hooked on the amazing stuff he makes,keep it up 💪💪
I like the shed videos

Watching you machine things is very therapeutic.
Now that's what I call CAD, cardboard aided design.👍
I have welded and remachined shafts at work before. "Save the day" jobs.
I looked up TIG Welding in the Dictionary and guess what, there’s a photo of you! 👍😉
This is an awesome display of skill.
Build a gear reduction for your rotary table. That way you can increase the drive speed making it more apt to run consistent speed.
I love that you keep your mistakes in your videos. Makes them much more relatable.
A free-running 3 jaw in the tailstock would be a great accessory for prepping material for machining steady rest surfaces... 🤔
Nice work... 👏
😎👍☘🍺

Since you are posting on a video sharing platform, why don't you just post a quick video showing everyone how to do it? Please?

Amazing wrk salvaging that bent round stock
Chris it’s really fun and amazing to watch what you do !! Your skill set has really been raised to another level and I can’t wait to see what you are up to in the next 5- 10 years ! You are amazing and keep up the great work !!

Chris... I would LOVE to see you make a street legal kart like Vasily Builds just did.
Wow close call there buddy 😁 allsome work from cruzermans inventions,👌👍😎
It’s great to see that your workshops are clean
Can't wait to see how this two seater turns out!
You need to make spacers for each tube to support inner races of the bearings from side load.
I watch your videos with great interest 😅😅
Really nice, professional looking job! Pat on the back for you, Chris!
hope you are going to make some spacers to sit between the bearings so you doint ruin them when you tighten it all up
I like you ideas on how to make your axles! Might be more beneficial for you to matching some bevels into the parts where you are welding! Better heat penetration and less cleanup especially on the hub faces!! Not to mention stronger!
Where are all of your builds documented? I want to see how to do things the right way. Thanks!

You’ve come along way. Keep learning. Keep sharing…
In my non-professional opinion, this is some of your best work. Very nice
Holy crap man! Taking things to an amazing level here. The complexity of this beast is going to be a joy to watch!! I can't wait!!
Love your wrk but would like to see you do completely new stuff like this project would be cool if you went shaft drive
Like a shaft drive motorcycle set up on ea axle would be something completely new and new challenges ect. Super rad wrk no matter wat you build. It’s always a pleasure to watch
Hell yeah, new project, can't wait to see how will the 4wd system work, keep it up!!!
👀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀!!!genius!!!
Maybe you can run your chain from your jack shaft to the your front axle through tubing which should be part of your chassis
Great build. Can not wait to see complete build.
Chris, try cleaning the rotating tool's rheostat contactor and the coils it rides on. they may be dirty which will affect the tool's operation.
I was thinking that pot/rheostat could be damaged due to possible arc damage and if your option fails, it should be easy enough to replace
Nice looking welds.
You are a master at what you do my dude.
good to see how far you have come with your workmen ship keep it up great work.

Always good when you start vid with a bit of heavy metal
I really hope you have a new video on the electric bike soon.
You should probably make it with two chains, one from the back to the middle then middle to the front which will reduce the stretch and if you can get them perfectly central you will have a chain with you if the drive chain breaks it beats a long walk back.👍👍
That bar that has a wobble in the end is called Runout in engineering terminology . 👍
Love your stuff Chris . You always try and ramp up ... That is quite refreshing !!!!
Machinist Extraordinaire ! 👌 nice work ☮️
Bro, your video are great but I swear, with your talent, you could go so much bigger. I'd love to see what you would do with an old VW bug
At this point he should design his own vw😂

drive shafts this time, the heck with chain drives for a change. after early enjoy your videos keep up the great work.

Man love this channel. Always look forward to the next video.

That's a lot of work, I like it 👍
Nothing like a nice roll of quarters
Love your videos. Your a average Joe out there just doing and learning. No hating here when mistakes are made. Makes me think I might be able to pull something like this off myself one day.
I want to be like you when I grow up sir.
Yea dude, you need to be in a much bigger shop with all the right equipment..you do such amazing work and build amazing shit...hopefully ur sponsors or people will reach out to ya and donate stuff or put ya up somewhere..you deserve it
Here we go again...another great adventure! Can't wait to see it develop! ...😎👍171
Inner brakes on the axles this time?That way no worries about funky arm designs.I made axles and we had a straightner that was 2-V blocks and a press,and dial indicator=For your round stock.
Upgrade speed controller on your turn table. The function of turn table is super simple
You should make your own rotary table fixture. You've got the talent to do it
A bigger beefier 2 seater go cart w/ 32s that's 4 wheel drive¿! O Hell Yeah..... This is gonna be awesome. 😁
Welding on thick material cools of the weld fast and could cause martensite to form depending on the steel alloy. So just to be safe preheating is recommended when welding thicker material to prevent brittleness.
I would say that your gussets will give a lot of strength.
That is professional quality, keep it up Chris this one will be great!
Looking forward to the new project.
What power plant is going into the new buggy? It's going to have to be pretty stout to swing that metal around.
It is good you got the lathe crash out of the way.
No need to do it again, once is enough.
Pretty damn loud even with ear protection isn't it?
Nice work on the bent axle salvage. I have never seen your material rack...very impressive.
good work as always.
No words. Genius
OMG! I can't believe you didn't single point that thread.
it may be more complicated but I would recommend some kind of diff in the front end or some way to take it out of 4wd or it will steer like a tank and be a Paine to drive
I have seen some tractors made with thinner material, I see no breaking points there
Chis you should make some prototypes and sell them to people who need custom work like this, what you do is absolutely amazing!
Impressive.
Hey Chris. Your link for your merch isn't working. Just to let you know. Thanks for the vids. And your a very talented young man. Great work skills. Thanks again. Pete.
I appreciate your content. Keep up the great work!
Another great video, thanks.
Awesome video
As per usual, great work. Great video.
have i missed the finished reverse trike, just asking, would love to see that on the road
Hey man. Can u please help me out here. What filler rod are u using and what are u using in the tig torch to tig the shafts to the flange?
Really impressive work!
Would love to see a busa engine in this build!
Friendly reminder that many of us use kg and not sticks and stones... Hehehe... Love your work as usual!
Replace the potentiometer (speed switch) on your welding positioned it’s a cheap part and easy, just check the value on the existing one and order from amazon
Love your vids keeps up the good work
I would try to make some type of differential on the front!
You are crazy !!! ( the good kind ) Really enjoy the channel...
Those Wheels are nice
This is the real art =)
I was just watching one of your old video about the Suzuki gs500 buggy xD
Could you turn a taper on the reamer shaft to fit the tail stock?
Sounds like a really cool project. Are you going to use a car engine?
Keen to see how you do the front differential
damn man...thats so much work...i would have gave up long before all that and adapted something else, or cut an ATV axle in half and welded the sprockets to each side lol
