Adding a bore welder to my home made line borer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 вер 2024
- In this video I set up my new to me Castolin Eutectic ID weld 25 bore welder to check it’s going to work correctly before I make it fit onto my line boring bearing mounts.
After a successful test, I cnc plasma cut out a 15mm plate that the bore welder will be mounted on. The plate is put in the lathe to machine a shoulder that will locate it accurately onto the line boring plate. The new DRO on the fresh milling machine is put to good use by centre drilling where the 9 bolt holes need to be drilled and the remaining material that couldn’t be reached in the lathe is milled away using a face mill.
Before removing the plate from the mill, I measure the centres between the torch and upright on the bore welder, the dro is then used again to centre drill where the upright hole needs to be.
The 9 holes are drilled through using the pillar drill.
The upright hole is drilled to 24mm and the boring head is used to counter bore the hole out to 37mm allowing the upright bar to sit nicely in the hole.
Hope you enjoyed the video
Thanks for watching!
Mattys workshop. An old Aussie lad who machines in his shed, very down to earth, unfortunately battling ‘rust’ at the moment but still turning and filming.
Thanks very much Sam, much appreciated
Another one of the really good guys.
Strange to see a moldboard plow in action. I haven't ever seen one in serious use here outside of a demo at a tractor show. When they were used it was in the spring. Now 90% of my area is no-till.
We try to do more min till nowadays but the plough still has its uses. Especially when it’s wet.
Mostly because most of europe mainly does winter crops, so you need to remove the remaining straw etc because theres only 2-3 months before seeding again, not the whole winter
Harrys Farm did a piece on this on his latest video.
Got a shout out from Watch Wes Work this week - big fan - does mostly cars but recently fab'd up a bucket and set up a cnc plasma cutter - competent guy in a lot of disciplines
I watch him to.
WWW is a UA-cam king, his level of sarcasm is out of this world
Snowball Engineering is an absolute must to watch
Glad to hear Wes helped out with giving you subs 👍 hes amazing at fabrication just like yourself. Both great channels 👏 😊
Fitting a DRO to older machines really makes it so much easier to know where the tool is. Topper Machine LLC in Wisconsin USA has fitted DROs to several of his old machines. He keeps buying old machines for his workshop because of how reliable they are. Another very interesting channel. He also has a shop built sawmill (a big one) and he keeps bees as well and also does railroad work occasionally.
Topper machine work is also worth watching ,very interesting video !
I first came to your UA-cam channel also because Wes mentioned that he watches your channel and to check it out. I've been watching his channel for years.
Great videos mate. Lovely to hear a proper British accent from up Narth. I use furniture wax on any bare surfaces in my shop. I’ve got exactly the same problem. Obviously you can’t use it everywhere, but it helps. The other trick is to throw an oily rag on it when it’s not in use. Keep up the great work mate.
One channel I love is ‘Professional Struggler’ he is a diesel mechanic a good laugh
Great job 👍, keeping the Magnetic base as an option was a good move. Just need a job for the line borer / welder now. *Matty's Workshop* is an Aussie and recently was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. Kurtis at CEE started a go-fund page to help him and his family bear the costs. Unfortunately Australia's healthcare still requires patient payments for some treatments. He is a great guy and he is mostly old school. Thanks for the post, really appreciated, it is Snowball Sunday, best day of the week 👍 Take care, be well.
I’ve donated already☺️
@@snowballengineering Awesome mate, Matty is the same as me, an old engineer, who is still in love with engineering. I'm just really pleased that his focus can be on his treatment and not on his finances 👏
Lets hope you and welderfabber can do a collaboration, will well be worth a war of the roses,
Gday, it’ll be good to see how this works out mate, cheers
Ah! Glad you mentioned Wes. I had forgotten who directed me to your channel! I was born and raised on a farm and I can appreciate the great work you do!
Welderfabber, Matty’s workshop, CEE, zip ties and bias plies, DD speed shop , o’l 2 stroker, KT3406, iron king are some of my favourite UA-cam channels, alongside snowball engineering of course!
I can’t wait to see you trying that out on a repair. Waves from Wakefield 👋🏻 Good eye spotting that hedgehog too!
Only saw him at the last second!
Wes just finished upgrades to his skid loader, and the bucket turned out to be a treat.
Congrats Olly. A new toy to the arsenal. Cheers!
A good video again Oliver. It's good how you use your brain..you think things out and explain to us, and get the right outcome of coarse. A cute little critter at the end.
Appreciate the thanks for sending you the link, just glad I could help.
May not be the easiest to use but I think again you have found a cost effective solution to advancing your capabilities and business. I always enjoy the farming bits , I grew up on a farm in Western Canada , English + Scottish hereditary, I am an engineer and was sent by a multinational company to manage the European Operations out of Manchester , we enjoyed out time in the UK and the European continent .
I watch WWWork and love his trouble shooting , WelderFabber , IC weld , ABom79 and others , I enjoy your channel it would be fun to introduce your Dad and have him explain the history of the farm .
Glad you got one of these lad, hope it makes your life easier.
I saw the WWW episode in which he mentions your channel. That was less than 2 weeks ago. I subscribed after watching your loader bucket build at that time and since then you've added over 400 new subscribers. Again well done all around.
Good to see you are being recognised
your Harrison lathe should easily be able to face anything you can swing in the gap by 1 put compound slide parallel to cross slide and back tool post out 2 reverse compound slide completely 3 reverse QCTP and have tool on the back that's a very capable lathe i love the content and the shout out from Watch Wes Work
While it could for sure do that, since it would be cutting air most of the time, I bet the mill was faster.
Great save at the end plowing the field ,, good luck with the new bore welder .. another great video ..
Great video, Mattys work shop is a great channel to watch also,
It sure is!
Abom is more of a machinist kind of channel. But the man knows his stuff. He upgraded his shop a couple of years ago aswell, but he really knows what he's talking about when it comes to machining parts, material knowledge and more. Uncle Tony is also good forike more hobby machining,but explained it rlly simple. I watch more machining channels since that's my interest/job but these are some of the guys i watch that still learn me things
Cutting edge engineering is I rekon the best now, abom has been a bit of a hard watch for a while now, loves to really drag put Jobs in a few videos
@@fowletm1992 i sadly have to agree, but his older vids do still educate to some extent
@@fowletm1992
Completely agree, i use to watch everything Abom uploaded, the last few years have gone downhill and moved away from the core ethos of the channel. Having said that it's obviously working for him and i do come back to it now and again.
I used to enjoy watching abom but now it's all padding out videos and shilling products. I'm here to watch the work and maybe learn something while figuratively "hanging out in the shop", not listen to a sales pitch. I get enough of that at my actual job.
@@ForfeMac completely agree!
Love your show. I came over from watch Wes work
Nice to see you have the Mill and DRO set up, make life so much easier and quicker. The bore welder is a great tool.
Hi Oliver.
I found your channel from WWWs shout out. I was pleasantly surprised to see you were a fellow Yorkshireman. I also subscribe to Cutting edge. Curtis's outtakes crack me up, and homeless is far too cute. Anyway, I look forward to working my way through your playlist.
Glad to see your subscribers grow! I've enjoyed your content since finding your channel. We need to get Kurt at Cutting Edge Engineering to give you a shout out as well. I "think" he has the most subscribers of any machinist channel on UA-cam.
Another great episode in making and modifying .
Nice one !👍👍👍👍👍
Hi, if you place the mag base on a sheet of cardboard it lowers the friction between the base and the table whilst positioning. By moving the cardboard you gain a mechanical advantage as you are moving the magbase at the work surface level. Sorry, hung over and failing to describe things well:)
Abomb79. From Florida U.S.A.
Great channel. He makes his videos very easy to follow even for people not very well versed in matching.
This Old Tony also very good.
Keep up the videos and bettering your craft.
Good luck from the USA
Machining
Very interesting , loved the plowing and hedgehog
The more equipment the better if it makes the job easier and gives you a bigger scope of work
That come out good should come in real handy for you. That was a good idea.
Should have left to go shopping but was enjoying the video very much.
That is why ploughing matches are on nice bits of ground!!
Great addition to the workshop, more services to offer.
The thing that I like the most about SnowBall engineering isn't the welding fabrication and builds it's just the genuine and humble side of Olly
Big respect to all farmers you are all amazing
Thanks!
Awesome job well done u perfect set up now just need some nice size bores to work it ...
Very handy being able to make and modify your own tools to suit what you need to get done. That bore welder attachment for your line borer is going to make a big difference to the ease of doing tricky jobs. Great job setting it all up. Looking forward to seeing it in use some time.
As always, a pleasure to watch.
Great content, using a bore welder is really NOT easy. But with your craftsmanship it will undoubtedly work out fine👌. With a Mig pulse device you can get rid of the spatters...
Hi Pal, love your channel, I came from Watch Wes Work, I love his work too. Cutting edge engineering, an Aus channel is excellent too.
you kind of ran through my play list , farm craft and salvage workshop are couple of good ones as well. I cant believe how fast things rust where you are I put a metal foof on a cabin weeks ago and i want it to rust but its real slow
Great video as always, even Abom suffers with rust in the workshop in Florida whilst it is some what warmer the humidity is very high.
well done young man best of luck ( retired engineer ) Stockport area
Thst should make life easier for sure! Thanks for sharing
Great farming channel The Jackson Brothers. There from Australia. Always have a great video
Another good one Ollie, dont change ought remember how you got here, it works.
Many times youtubers change their format and ruin the channel.
All the good channels,www, cee, south main auto channel deisel creek etc are the same now as they were originally...dont break what aint fixed err i mean dont break too late..no you know what i mean😅
Looks great, another arrow in your quiver. Good thinking figuring it out.
outstanding creation ... I wondered when you would acquire this gizmo ... one of your regulars from Texas
Great content as always, keep up the great work! I look forward to seeing it in action! Another channel that I enjoy watching (in addition to the ones you mentioned already) "Make It Kustom". Carl's another great fabricator / metal shaper and teacher (more automotive if you like all things cars).
Another good video well done with that project it took a bit of thought.
Excellent adaptation to task.
thanks for adding in a little clip of the farming.
To keep enough shielding gas inside the hole maybe you can place a simple collar on top of the hole, for tight jobs maybe you can made a hinged split collar with a spring that keeps it closed so you can easily place it once the welder has raised a bit. Coogle for pictures of a "squeeze tri-clamp" to better understand what I mean, just ignore the locking feature.
It's great to know that you watch the stuff that I watch. I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and watching these different channels makes the world feel a lot smaller. What do you grow on your farm?
Wheat, barley, oats, oil seed rape and a few beef cattle
Keep up the great work.
The hedgehog thanks you and so do we! Another really interesting video. You can probably trap the gas in using some thin wood or cardboard sheets. Getting the bore welder to do what you want it to do will probably take same time, but will be worth it. Thanks for the video!
When doing vertical welding in a hole, you get a chimney effect. The heat rising blows the shield gas out. Cover the bottom of the hole.
I did think it could be that! Thanks for the tip
Hi there you need to take the collar off the top of the post and use it as a stopper so you don’t run in to your mounting plate.
Loving your work keep it up
Great addition to the shop, maybe make a centring cone to set the torch on centre?
Should be a quality machine from Castolin.
Thanks for sharing.
@KeithFenner (Turn Wright Machine Works) is another good one, especially his earlier stuff. Great video Olly, keep it up!
Western Truck and trailer , a great channel , as is this one!
Watch Wes Work sent me to your channel as well. Greatly enjoy your content. Thank you!
Love your ingenuity. Keep up the good work.
Great to see you growing your shop. I watch most of the video sites that you mentioned.
Great minds think alike😂
make a drop in locating collar for the head of the welder- that will centre the welder tip
Great idea.
2nd thought. Once collar is made, cut it into two. A lot easier to fit and then remove considering the lower angled nozzle(s). Also put some sort of flange on the top face so that the collar doesn't fall through.
You sorted that out well👍
Comment for the algorithm to help the channel 👍.
I suggest watching Topper Machining LLC, he is amazing machinist.
I love your channel.
Glad you enjoy it!
Yay! Spikey rescue!!
Cracking video as ever.
If ur not far from Pickering your not far from me on the coast near sunny Scarborough.
The hedgehog, luv ya stuff Ollie, greetings from Aus
Thank you!
Pozdro od spawacza z POLSKI .DUZO ZDROWIA I POWODZENIA😊
Interesting video. Nice job.
Glad you can still go back to the mag base if you need to.
My wife pesters me when I’m slashing the fields to keep the lines straight.
I think she is worried about how it will look on Google Earth 🤠
Our dirt is crap so we never get to plough.
Good on you for saving the Hedge Hog. I have to watch out for Bandicoots 🤠
Am a big fan of CCE, will look out the others aswell. .👍
Dyslexia strikes, CEE. 🤐
I found your channel throw Cutting Edge Engineering channel I not an Engineer but I am fascinated with Engineering staff.
Thanks for for the awesome videos is nice to see you grow I am happy for you.
Abou farming I am a famer I know a lots about farming to be honest I would love to find a farming job because I love farming too.
I am maintenance man fool time and I love my job a lot but farming is a job I'd love to have as an alternative job if I ever offer a farming job that pays more than I am earning right now I will not hesitate one bit to go farming.
An endless belt still has a vulcanised joint, it’s just vulcanised in house. An endless belt is used when there’s no room for a belt be vulcanised on the machine, or you don’t have the adjustment to pull it tight. Sometimes they can be a real pain to fit
Yes, I got here from Wes, your channel is awesome. I’m going to drop your name into Abom 79’s and a few of the other big UA-camrs, you deserve the subs young man. Kindest regards from Bonnie Scotland UK.
Thanks very much!
I got a ic weld and cutting edge engineering vibe 👌 but with a Yorkshire twist 👌 I was inspired to start my channel with andrew camarata.
If folk like seen serface preparation your invite is hear 👌 keep up the work mate also keep me in mind if ya ever need a mobile blaster on any project be happy to help out 👌👍
Will do!
Wes suggested your channel and here I am. New sub and looking forward to more of your videos.
Thanks for sharing.
Welcome aboard!
Looks like a good set-up
New sub courtesy of Watch Wes Work. Enjoy your video’s.
Olá amigo muito bem elaborada a adaptação!!!
Boa sorte sempre!!!
Mate your set now 👍👍
I see we arced that tip a few times 😎
I would like to see you farming a bit more when you run out of shop work. I do believe you have a great new setup for line boring now.
Can’t see tractor driving rates paying for that new cutting table 😂
I really enjoy your content and wish you the very best. You might enjoy Farming, Fixing and Fabricating.....a large dairy farm in New York state, USA.......he does much of his own equipment repair.
Brilliant!
Hello Ollie. I am just catching up with your channel. Great videos and content. I am actually not too far from you geographically. As far as other channels go, have you seen Bradshaw Joinery? I know its not metal fabrication but he is also called Oliver and is a master craftsman when it comes to woodwork and he and his brother also farm. So he posts content showing what he is doing in the workshop and then he will sometimes end with a bit of him out later in the day baling or whatever. Its worth a watch.
Looking good
WWW Wes has a great channel. He as mentioned your Chanel as well. Always something breaking and something getting repaired.
Great podcast people.
I think you get a better weld using Flux Core wire! Great work, your on the right path.
Im In Australia and work for a Massey Dealership and do very similar work as you on all types of farming equipment.
