Looks like decent progress! That tool for making the little marks for oil looks like fun to use (if not a wee bit stressful as well though, too!) Lil’ doggy sure is precious. I about caught a cold from this video 😂
Do you have any sort of heater that could make it more hospitable? Have you watched the H&W videos about how the head is all put together? Thanks for watching.
@@KevinToppenberg oh no way. Just need to get used to the cold again. I even work on my cars outside in the snow. Just a shock when the cold weather first arrives.
Listen- everyone is a troll, I’m really asking here for my edification- were I doing this I’d think about using assembly oil. Is there a reason you don’t.
I don't know what assembly oil is. One-shot oilers use a light grade oil, so it moves well through the small tubes. So that is what I used. But I could well be wrong. Can you tell me more about assembly oil?
@@KevinToppenberg in engine building there is something called assembly oil- but for this discussion it’s way oil.. you’re testing fits and dry sliding components that will, well, be oiled- so I had always understood its best to oil as one goes along. But I’m a dumb carpenter.
@@DrewDiaz No, I think you are right. When I put that carriage one, you can hear it scraping as it slides. I should have put oil on that first. I did a quick read on assembly oil, and it seems that it is oil that tends to stick. That is an interesting thought. It might not travel through the oil tubes, but what if it was already there from assembly? Live and learn! Thanks for watching.

The pooch is my muse! Thanks for watching!
Great progress. Got to get out to the garage and get my Brideport head put together and put back on! It's 44f though so I'm not too excited about it!

@@KevinToppenberg yeah, but it's loud and I have to close the door and hate being in the garage like that.
@@Rusty-Metal That's too bad. Maybe it will have to wait until spring. 😞

Check out H&W Machine if you need anything professionally rebuilt , they did the bearing pack on my J head Bridgeport , great service!
I have watched their videos. Top notch stuff. Great suggestion. Thanks!
What is that flaking (sawzall) tool you have there??
I made a video about making this. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/vrupYaN2HV4/v-deo.htmlsi=asfAPXDspSY3SaKg Thanks for watching.
