- Back on the Do-All saw this week with the short amount of shop time that I had available.
Time to work on the blade tracking setup for this saw. Like everything else it also has problems. Surprisingly some of the parts for this thing are getting ready for paint and will be finished before you know it. Huge thanks to all my supporters who make this possible.

I am not easy to distrac...oh! a squirrel!
LoL, Peanut is all about "helping" Thanks for watching Stefan👍
@@SteveSummers I'm surprised Stefan didnt suggest Olive-Drab with beige accents (or Panzer Grey) LOL
Hahahaha!!! Stefan watches?!?!?!?!?! That's awesome!!!!!!! You know you're doing something right when you've got all the UA-cam Giants watching!!!
Just think that saw had to have been running all jacked up for the last 20 years. It won't know how to act once its all fixed like it is supposed to be!! lol
The hollow or bottomless set screw is there to lock the actual set screw as you suspected. The reason it's hollow is really quite simple. Some manufacturers used a grub screw for the same purpose. When you remove the grub screw the chance are pretty good that the Allen socket will be damaged from the grub screw being tightened down too much. The hollow screw works better because the portion of the grub screw that does the damage is not there and the way the screw is machined there is very little contact with the lower set screw. Only upper or higher end manufacturers used the hollow screws as they are hard to get and relatively expensive when compared to a grub screw.
Regarding the Smiths torch, they are arguably the best engineered and made torch on the market. They use "O" ring seals on the torch to body connection instead of tapers negating the need for wrenches. The cutting tips use a soft graphite gasket seal and the nut is internal thread to the torch heads male thread. As a result, the tips are hand tightened to the body again without the need for a wrench. All connections are silver brazed unlike some competitors who use threaded connections. Smiths also incorporates sintered bronze filtres on both inlets and on newer models the flashback arrestors are built in to the torch handle negating the need for external arrestors which throw the torch out of balance. That SC model with cut up 8" in thickness. How do I know these things about Smiths torches? Because they were the only torches I had on my welding rigs from start to finish and were totally reliable even though they had already seen 20+ years of service with my late Father prior to my getting them. The only things ever replaced on them was a couple of valves that were damaged by accident and some "O" ring seals. They have now been passed on to my son. 60 years of use and still going strong.
You have unveiled a large number of problems with This saw. That's what we do that makes us different than most people. We are very persistent and have a great deal of patience. There will be a great reward when you get it finished. Another great video of the home shop. Keep up the good work.
So glad to see someone who takes the time and extensive effort to fix things in this throwaway world
Keep up the good work
yeah but if it was from HF and that badly damaged, youd throw it away
I have been watching you for a couple years, and in my humble opinion, you are one of the premier machinists on youtube! Your precision and attention to detail are matched by few and exceeded by none. One thing surprises me; the number of your subscribers should be seven or eight times larger than what you have! Peanut, your new shop apprentice and helper, is just too cute for words!
What a Lovely family you have. GOD BLESS YOU ALL and I wish you all a very very Good and Special year with Lots of Good luck and everything that comes with it and Good Health. Keep the video's coming, we love them...
Aloha Steve as to the paint color ask Elisabeth, as to the supervisor keep him happy. I enjoy this restoration and look forward to seeing the first cut. Hope 2020 is the best year yet for you and yours.
Hey Steve!
As far as paint on the saw...everwhat you prefer...However, you MUST get a Mr. Peanut sticker to honor all the 'assistance' that 'Peanut' gave! LOL
Ken
Gloves and wire wheels are bad practice brother
@@ronaldhetz1152 you just wrecked it. Delete your comment and take your safety nannying somewhere else. Sheesh..... You ppl suck the life and work right outta everyone!
And a peanut sticker is a great suggestion!!! Awwww man...... They could've made ugly Christmas sweaters with peanut and the do-all saw!!!!! Maybe next year??
Nice to see the car in shape great work! Now Do-All is coming to shape fewer parts to replace, cant wait to see it running. The squirrel and Elizebeth are definitely buddies. God Bless
Hit like just because of that squirrel already
That's classic ...."leave me a suggestion, that way I can totally disregard it and paint it whatever color I choose"... I'd say go with something bright like a nice bright yellow. Disregard that!
Your Comment has been Disregard 😁
Man that thing is built like a brick outhouse, it'll be good for a few more generations once you've done with it 👍😄
Always interesting Steve another reason to look forward to Saturday mornings. Thank you.
Great work as always. That saw will be better than new. Car came out great. That squirrel love you both. Thank you for sharing.
Rodent type critters are so curious. And really affectionate when they trust you. Man what a hoss of a torch. Much jealousy. Have a good one yall!
Burgundy and cream paint. Always Looks classy 👍🏻
Once and a while you can loosen a stuck set screw by getting a pin punch just smaller than the hex, and a few sharp hammer blows can help vibrate it.
I thoroughly enjoy the fact that you spend the time to restore these machines. Where I live there is a building that is about to be torn down and just recently they moved an old, very large, Do-All upright bandsaw out on the sidewalk. Now it's just sitting in the weather, most likely headed for the scrap yard...sad.
Regarding that double setscrew. You will find the same thing on the quill of a Bridgeport mill.
That was my first thought, I actually just changed out one of those the other day so it was fresh on my mind.
Steve the DoAll saw I did maintenance on had a snap ring to hold the wheels on also had a grease fitting to grease the bearings if using sealed bearings no need for the grease fitting. If you are remaking the shaft and want to add the grease fitting would be easy to do at the same time.
That saw is suffering from PTSD, with all those bodged attempts at a "repair", it's found a good home now though.
PTSD is a horrible illness, I am not belittling it, no insult or slight intended.
Great vlog both, thanks for sharing.
British jaguar racing green! Cherry sunburst!
Thanks Again Steve, that sequence with the squirrel helping was a hoot! First thing I do on a Saturday morning is watch your video!
Thank you👍🥂😁
Great video today! Thanks for update on the car repair, looks great, your furry supervisor needs a little green plastic visor.
that torch and accessories are absolutely fantastic. what an awesome gift
avoid dark colours, the idea is light/bright colour show when oil is leaking or some went wrong. Dark hides the failing bit
Rustoleum Deep Green Hammered. Painted my lathe with it. Unique nice color, got lots of great comments on the look.
THANX FOR SHARIN SOME SHOP LIFE WITH US, ALWAYS ENJOYABLE
I belive your going to gave a great saw when finished. Run like new. You can do it. The supervisor approves work and is a true one, a real squirrel At that, as most are.
Love the squirrel. 😀
Very nice little KIA there...and definitely that set screw was for the groove cut in that shaft...love the little squirrel shop helper
One simply doesn't miss a guest appearance from Peanut . Great Video Steve
Agreed on not missing the peanut appearance. Thanks for watching 👍
Blue and yellow! Happy New Year to you and your family!!
Around my home everyone paints everything rebuilt John Deere green and yellow, it would be just leftover tractor paint but it lasts for ever!!! Thanks for sharing
Great job with the car, smart and practical!!!!!
Red, White & Blue.
Blue base & standing parts with White controls and Red on all moving parts
Doing a great job Steve, it’s funny how this project has progressed! In the beginning you were pretty surprised/bummed when something was broken or unserviceable but now you just expect that it’ll be broken and surprised when something isn’t!
On the bright side, when you’re done with this saw it’ll last you the rest of your life and then some! Plus, I don’t know about you but I take a lot more pride in the tools that I’ve repaired and restored versus the stuff I’ve bought new at the store.
I've got a real good friend who is an old crazy Australian that my mom works as a caregiver for. My Mom drives a KIA Soul and my friend always talks about getting a metal R to put in front of the Soul logo.... I'll let that one sink in for a minute cause it took me a minute to make the connection. :-)
Awsome job on the car. I see the saw is comming along. One day you will have an awsome saw for a small amount of cash. The Do-All green would be nice and a good compromise
Metallic green with yellow highlights and black pinstripes.
Candy apple red and gold flake.
Darth Vader black.
Red, white and blue with a Captain America star on the wheel covers.
Thanks,
John
Great content, you are blessed with quality people following your channel. Have a Blessed New Year.
I completely agree 👍
That squirrel friend should be rewarded with some nuts for its participation. Like your videos.
Steve, you're the best... Thank You!!!
A friend of mine has a squirrel, raised it from a baby. The blue color that DoAll uses is nice. And correct for the machine. The smith torch is a good one. I have 2 of them. One the size you received and one about 24" long. It doesnt come apart. Hence, needing 2 of them. The one you have i only use for braise welding or the rose bud . Consider a 00 tip. They are really nice for thin sheet metal.
I also own a Smith torch, given to me by my father. It's the best torch I have ever used and I use every chance I get. Nice to see someone else likes it.
nice work steve! love the squirrel! such an energetic thing :)
If that was my saw, she would be going machine grey... I have a bandsaw that is green. cant stand to look at it hahaha!
You will like the smith torch. We have a couple of them. If the cutting head is stamped lifetime they have the lifetime warranty as long as you send it in with a smith tip in it. I haven’t had to send any in for repairs since miller bought them
You are the best Steve, Thank You!
I vote DoAll green, the color under all of the colors.
red oxide? lol
The tracking adjustment fasteners are the same parts as my Delta/Rockwell lathe uses for bed leveling on the base cabinet.
Hi Steve. First time commenting but I've been watching your videos for quite some time - love them! Regarding the Kia - I've driven a 2010 Soul 2U 2.0L for the past 10 years and it's been super reliable, even through our friendly Canadian winters (I chuckle a little at your comments about it being cold when it's around -10C - that's almost shirtsleeve BBQ weather in central Alberta in winter LOL). Just under 310,000km on it and it's still going strong. The only significant repair I've had to do to it happens to be replacing the lower control arms for the same reason - the ball joints were showing their age (dry and squeaking although surprisingly not particularly loose yet). I could have just replaced the ball joints but the entire control arm is cheap and I had read it's pretty much just as easy to replace the entire arm and that way you also get new rubber bushings at the frame end. I didn't quite catch whether you've already replaced the control arm or still need to but if you haven't yet it's not hard. It's a minor pain to wiggle the arms out at the frame end and get the new ones positioned and the bolts back in but not that bad - I'm sure it'll be a breeze for you. I'm sure the car will serve you well for a good while to come. Keep the awesome videos coming and I'll be watching every one!
This saw will be better than the way it came ne from the factory and will live again , being looked after better than before. Great job
I'd go with a Do-All green paint job. Or something close with a slight twist.
Looks close to Reseda green.
I like that black and gray combo right there!
I would go for the light green, but with all of the saw blade path parts in a bright orange, and accent all the operator control areas with silver.
I have had limited success with stuck threaded fasteners by using shock. With a socket head, I have cut off the "L" of a worn Allen wrench, clamped on a ViseGrip and given it a couple of reasonable blows while applying torque. Heat is still the best method.
Used to make jewellery, just hobby stuff, but had quite a well equipped shop. Used just a propane torch. I don't do that stuff any longer, but I still want... a Smith's Mini Torch!
Happy new year Steve!
Love the bandsaw series.
Best to do the timing belt on the car.
Thanks for sharing,
Cheers
Agreed 👍. Happy New Year!
Love the squirrel :)
That was a tough one Steve ...
I was thinking "impact gun with a hex socket"...
Cheers!
You got a very good torch. Not seen to much. I have been in the welding business for 40 years and only seen it 2 times.
That is a great torch !
Nothing like having a squirrel's but i your face when you're trying to work. He's too cute to get upset though.
Go for the same colours as your shaper for both the saw and the KT mill :) great job on the kia and of cause squirrel handling
I think you ought to paint it OD Green and black. since it sat outside so long I think that would be fitting and the squirrel buddy would probably like it too! Nice job Steve. That saw is going to serve you very well.
Thank you for making videos.
Thank you for watching. Wouldn't do it with the viewers👍
I don't think that there has been a part of the saw that hasn't been cobbled, abused or neglected great job and have a good year
happy new year, i like blue saws,regards from U.K.
Congrats on the car, Steve and Nicole.
Nice job on removing the damaged set screw. That Smith is a top notch torch setup. The welding tips are a little pricey but a vast selection. Personally I would ditch the arrestors at the regulator as having 2 inline can restrict gas flow.
Steve I wanted to pop in and say your going to love the Smith torches. When I was starting out an old fabricator told me that the Smith torch is the fabricators torch and the Victor's are the junk yard torches both will get the job done but one is substantially better
Good job on your work. Very nice family including peanut. I'm so jealous. haha
I think the shaper colors would be neat. Great video!
That really is a tame squirrel, right in there even trying to "help" fix stuff. The thing is that even with all the work you're putting into the saw it will be A1 functioning when you're done and able to handle rel-sized material. Still enjoying the series.
I use a Smith torch myself, superb. Nice work as usual, Happy New Year. That's near five bills worth of torch.
Peanut obviously needs a set of miniature tools :-)
Good job on the car.
She would go nuts with her own tools.
The car is looking great. I have fixed about 15 cars that were totaled over the last 50 years. If you have the time and knowage that is the way to go. hope it works out well for you.
Man... I've got to get me one of those high-speed hand wire brushes!
You need to have your major projects arranged in playlists so they can be easier to find. Love watching your projects!
Smith's torches are fantastic!
Love the little squirrel if you want a color Cat YELLOW and black silver trim Happy New Year Be well and be safe...........
steve you know that greenhill sticker you have on the board i think that green coulour would be a good choice for kind of an industrial green on the bandsaw. another good video thanks steve.
Nice light to mid green with yellow accents just like the Cincinnati Shaper with the yellow do-all wording and white globe.
So many interesting jobs to do on it it really is the " Re-Doall " I like gray my self but that's just me.
Smith makes a nice torch.I have both Victor and Smith. Your Smith acet. pressure for cutting is higher than the Victor.10 # if I remember correctly. They are both fine torches.Enjoy your videos.Happy New Year
What a score on that Smith.
The sped up painting wasn't that bad to watch and seeing the parts on the bench at the end, they looked amazing. I think that is part of the 'Restoration Video' secret, the paint makes all the hard work pop. You can work magic with genius tricks of the trade and all the machinists will be impressed, put a coat of paint on it and the house will be up on it's feet applauding :)
My first thought was Purple and Yellow but green and yellow like the shaper would be ok.
Love your work Mr Summers cheers
Thanks👍
I agree, I have been using Kroil for many years, it works great!
Steve this saw will serve you very well once refurbished. I suggest staying with DoALL scheme painting main body the traditional blue & saw blade stroke components the traditional orange. It will stand out with the fresh paint.
Double set screw is old school loctite. Thanks for the video.
Love the squirrel!
ATB, Robin
Me too! Thanks for watching Robin😁👍
You might look at British racing green. I agree with one of the earlier comments on hammertone paint. I've had good success with it. Someday that squirrel will answer the call of the wild. Then look out!
The blue color that is on it . I like to use the Majic paint I get from Tractor supply . There are many Tractor colors to chose from . But make sure you use the hardener with the paint that make the paint harder and shine realy comes out
I like the blue also. Thanks for stopping by and good luck on the HBM.
One of the things I like about the Smith is the three tubes are arranged flat as opposed to triangular. Also in most cases the Smith will have 6 preheat holes as opposed to 4. Just keep an eye on the O rings, they will eventually dry rot.
Colour: That olive green and yellow to match your shaper so that it's easy to see oil leaks or if anything is getting hot. The Do-All and not the squirrel but if you are not careful they will both be that color!
Off white, or machine white is really beautiful. I love 2 ton stuff, imagine the smaller parts in dark gray but not black against a light gray or machine white. Done so everything alternates color from piece to piece.
Dude! You need a parts tumbler. Labor saving and the hardware comes out looking beautiful.
Those smith torches are nice. We had them in ag when I was in school. They are however more expensive when you go buy tips.
I think the squirrel is gonna need it's own UA-cam channel soon haha , Great video Steve and Elizabeth 👍
