    I weld a lot of cast aluminum and built a vapor blaster just for cleaning prior to welding. Great repair!

    I can relate to the video. I've repaired a couple of two stroke case sets that needed repair. Had them tigged in that very fashion and did the subsequent profile work. It very rewarding in the end.

      Honda NC750X Stuff Miller 280DX, 2% thoriated tungsten, straight Argon, 4043 filler, 55-60 on balance, anywhere from 90-120 hz. I generally just control amps by foot with machine wide open.

    Actually the repair is most likely stronger than the original casting, I wasn't sure at first but when I saw the Black junk in the inside weld I figured it had to be cast instead of a Billet piece. Nice job & good video.

      3/32 for applications like this. I use 1/16 for thin buildup work.

    This is the proper way you repair 2 stroke cases . I cringe when I see guys use a file and bled it in with a dremel tool. Your machinist should face his work after he is done on mating tig welded surfaces. Great repair.

    Hi could you Tig weld the case while still in the bike? Would you fry the electrics? Would aluminium brassing rod and gas be a better option?
    Thanks for making the video!

    • @trickengg
      @trickengg  3 роки тому

      Case needs to be dissembled for proper repair if the crack is all the way through the case where it leaks oil. Never a good idea to weld the motor or chassis with the ECU plugged in and battery connected, and fuel tank installed of course. These cases are not the correct grade of aluminum for brazing or it would be a great application otherwise.

    What grit sandpaper did you use to lap the half’s

    • @trickengg
      @trickengg  3 роки тому +1

      I believe this was 120 grit

    • @HIinfidel
      @HIinfidel 3 роки тому

      Do you have to worry about the tolerance getting tighter with lapping in ? I’m asking because I’m having my cases repaired on my Yz450f and I might have to lap my cases. I don’t want anything to bind

    • @trickengg
      @trickengg  3 роки тому

      @@HIinfidel technically you need to have that in mind. When I do these repairs I weld the case above the gasket surface and then machine it really close back to the gasket surface. And then I’m just blending it in. You would have to be very aggressive and do a lot of work just to remove .002-.005 thousandths lapping cases like this. If you remove a lot it could at some point put things in a bind. But I’m simply not going to that extent.

    How much does a repair like this cost?

    • @trickengg
      @trickengg  Рік тому +1

      It’s not cheap. Repairs extensive like this take hours to get right. Repairs range from $120 to $500 depending on the mount of labor involved. Always look for good used parts first. Repair is a last resort.
