Nice demonstration! Two things: 1. Urethane belt ends are melted and joined. They are Not vulcanized. Vulcanizing is hardening rubber by adding sulfur and heating it. 2. It is not necessary or desirable to clip closely to the belt when removing the excess melted urethane. When the belt is stretched (installed) the join will narrow a bit naturally. SO it is Ok to have a bit of extra at the join. You can actually see the join narrowing when it is stretched/tested after welding (5:12).
Russ I Made custom print out of buna rubber we had the roll stock we would cut square apply the adhesive then put it in the vulcanizer clamper they were for altitude chambers.
yeah the adhesive is great for things like that, its the same process but uses the adhesive to "melt" ( bond) the rubber, however for the TPU its better to do it this way. you can also use ultrasonic ,they make them for this and your rubber parts but there quite pricey! thanks for the comment! ~Russ
yeah? this was recorded in 1080p60 and exported at 1080p60 , the clip at the end was recorded in 4k and compressed. so if there any difference to see you will see it there. ( 4K>1080p) ~Russ
was done in the editor, it seems i can quite seem where i can " compress" with in the cam... i can only so those other special features like " crop" and stuff... ~Russ
Well it looks like I'll be getting me one, so I won't have to keep asking all these questions. :-) Yay !!!! I know you like your older model a little better but in well lite spaces this model seems to produce much better video.
yeah this one is a lot better than my last... WAY more pixels lol also I'm still boggled by the 4K vs 1080p. there is a major loss in wide angle... its bothering me a lot lol. the 4K is not as wide as my old one. using a lens is an option... but thats a pain. and from my buddies testing the HD version is the same wide angle as the 4K... so yeah . i like my close shots. that forces me to use 4k mode in tight spaces to get the angle back.. but then i lose the 60P ah well ... :) ~Russ
A little bit at a time.
A little bit at a time.
Do it often and you accomplish great stuff.
Bravo.

Thank you so much for telling me about the 3d printer tpu bcs i have already a lot of it at home nice!
Nice bond.
Vulcanization requires the addition of other materials to the plastic. The use of "weld" in the title is the correct term.
yeah agreed, i think i leave it tho because others might also use the word wrong lol Thanks!! ~Russ
*****
Definitely leave the title as is.
I try to learn one new thing a day. You my friend increase this by two fold. Thank you for sharing.
EVERY DAY! good stuff my friend, you keep gong also :) loving the videos. ~Russ
ps. still want to do some stuff with ya :) i know its crazy around here too! ~Russ
rwg42985 yes absolutely. Lol it's been slightly manic before Xmas as work, family and holidays have kicked in. But m ready when you are.
My next video is introducing a perpetual motion idea and would love to know what us engineers make of it.
cool, well send me a email again !! :) ~Russ

video has much better quality now with your new camera
yeah? this was recorded in 1080p60 and exported at 1080p60 , the clip at the end was recorded in 4k and compressed. so if there any difference to see you will see it there. ( 4K>1080p) ~Russ
The hand clamp is purchased from Des-ta-co, but the rest was made by some Tool Designers and Tool Makers somewhere. :)
ah ha! that makes sentence. or the manufacture had a custom run??? :) ~Russ
Nah they sell those specifically to weld onto custom tooling.
ok I get it but don't you have a solder station make a blade tip and set your temp wouldn't that work fairly well
Thank you, great tutorial!
thanks RJ, also this video was recorded and exported as1080P60 except the last clip, it was 4k 30 compressed to 1080P60. just so you know :) ~Russ
Did you use the camera's built in crop function, or did you re-encode externally?

thanks as always Russ
right back at ya!!! :) ~Russ
I don't think that this process is called vulcanizing, Vulcanizing is done with heat and sulfur under pressure.
yeah. see comments, i messed that up :) ~Russ
Vulcanizing changes the chemical bonds inside rubber, without this it is not very good.

I don't see a turn counter when I wound coils we had a turn counter is that not important in Troid coils
reminds me of tron , but a piece of art in its'self.
art it sure it!!! its a master piece :) thanks !! ~Russ
