I honestly wished that his videos were longer. I can sit and watch his videos for hours. He is such a great designer and builder. Keep up the excellent work. 👏
I would talk to any parts suppliers that have things you need about sponsorship. If they watch this video im sure they'd be on board with you and take some of that financial burden off you. You've got so much potential there's a lot of people that would love to help a young guy like you progress!
I enjoy time lapse a lot better than the usual B-roll they tend to put. They try to hype people up and be entertaining, but I find THIS more entertaining, simply because it's step by step of how something is made from scratch, giving better understanding. One of my favorite UA-camrs, Jafro does this with commentary so you can learn things you might have never known before
Dude you have some mad machinist skill!!!! I am so glad to see someone your age that can work with his hands like this, and think outside the box like you do!
Whenever milling or turning on the lathe to try to avoid going undersize you could always add 100/1000ths to your measurement, then go down to 50/1000ths then 25/1000ths etc etc. Remember 39/1000ths is about 1mm so 19.5/1000ths or 0.5mm cut on a lathe or milling machine boring tool will produce 39/1000ths or 1mm cut. When you're doing your final cut it should be about 10/1000ths off the diameter, high speed, low feed, milky water on, that's the soluable oil that you add to water for cutting. I used to be a Fitter/Machinist/Toolmaker so precision was the key to being a good tradesman. Also remember to use printer paper between any T Slot Milling Table & Vice or Rotary Tool plus paper between the workpiece & rotary table that you clamp to on the milling machine to prevent slippage & injury.
@@AimlessMoto He already stated in another video that he has heard all about not wearing gloves while machining. I'm hoping he never learns why he shouldn't wear them, the hard way. (Hey! at least he wears a face shield!)
It's ok to use gloves for protection against flying hot chips, but you should not put your fingers into a spinning workpiece, that's all, it's pretty much common sense.
Very nice work. All of your projects look bullet proof. If you are building an on road project I hope it’s a trike. If it’s off road I hope it’s a sand rail!
Outside of the lack of money for tooling, I remember how tedious it was to machine stuff in high school for class, which is why I'll out source my machining to a machine shop for my buggy build. Unless i can find a lathe and mill on Craigslist for $2000 for the pair. Also guessing you were also looking at Fox Racing shocks with bypass? Yeah trying to find shocks for this building without going broke is going to be a challenge. Car/truck shocks will be way too stiff. Maybe finding ones used, but who knows on the condition let alone how it'll be to rebuild them. This thing is coming along nicely. I wouldn't be surprised if it took you until Feburary to get the next video up, no worries on that. An option you can do for shocks is get Yamaha Banshee shocks for a long travel A-Arm conversion, they might end up being cheaper.
That axle is a work of art! Your a very talented machinist for your age! Should look into owning your own or working at a machine shop with the skills you know from just learning on your own.
We need to help you get a big shop . Concrete floors 240 3 phase power . Big lathe big mill. 3phase welders with plasma arc. So whos going to help. And overhead gantry crane . You got talent .
The rear end alone will put this build way above anything you have done to date. Adding the mill to your shop seems to be the catalyst to much bigger and better things.
I could watch the machine work all day very soothing. Idea's for what to build, look at the vehicles buggies more specifically, that run the baja race. Why? They are good all around, dirt snow, sand, on road, off road. You have the power if you look at what and all they race and how they work I'm sure you can find your platform
This is going to be your best build yet. When you build the frame you should make a sand rail style frame like what people would do with the old vw beetles
Oh yeah, definitely looks like it's heading into the heavier duty area. A Sand Rail would probably be a great fit for this. Maybe even take it out to Little Sahara in Utah.
I honestly have no idea how you don't have more subscribers and more publicity! you put so much effort and care into all your project without completely losing interest Major kudos to you
speaking from years of struggle!! if there is any play in the splined connection. the center holding bolt is going to keep coming loose. I had to loose the Allen bolt, open up the pocket so I could fit a hex head bolt in their, grab a grade 8 or grade 10 and put green loctite on it. I have a couple of videos of my rail. some of the drivetrain, nothing near as fancy as your shots. Anything loose in that spool, ( which looks amazing by the way awesome work ), will find its way to cause you pain and grief.
My preferred method is using Subaru rear differentials. With the exception of brake rotor, a quick install. Add a Torsen differential core and you have positrac.
for a quick & dirty 4wd, you could mount a differential long ways front to rear, then chain from engine to a sprocket mounted to the yoke, & each axle end spinning a driveshaft to front & rear differentials, which just leaves designing a way to reverse, which could be handled quite a few ways
You never cease to amaze me! That is some beautiful work. You definitely deserve a lot if credit. I sincerely hope your UA-cam page blows up and you begin to get some sponsorships. That would really help with funding these projects. Keep up the good work man. I am looking forward to the next update on this build.
Said it before and I’ll say it again, all the work you put in is worth way more subs than you got. All the shit you make is really cool and I feel like you deserve way more credit.
Make yourself up a 16" long by 1/4" wire stock hook where the hook is about 1" half a circle for pulling off the swarth or metal shavings when using the lathe. It's fine using gloves to protect your arms from hot swarth flying off the lathe but never reach in to pull any of the swarth out while the chuck is moving. That is what the little hook on a bit of wire stock is for so if it gets pulled into the job while the chuck is spinning at 1500rpm or more you can let go & hit the emergency brake on the lathe & you'll still have your fingers left on all your hands like before you started. The handle part of the hook can be just wrapped back around in a long U shape enough for you to grip onto. Great video's by the way, please don't take any offense to what i'm saying as I just don't like anyone to get hurt when it can be avoided. Mark, Perth, Western Australia
Fine work. You may want to look into getting a broach if you plan on doing a lot of keyway style cuts. Will allow you the convenience of altering depth of cut by the thousands of an inch with considerably less filling. Saves the hands to. Great content 👍👍
I have been waiting for these videos for about a year. You have done everything I have been researching, even down to the S-10 CV’s. Please do a video of the “hub” assembly in detail. I am still a little confused how the bearings are held in and correctly spaced. Thank you. Great job on the build.
That looks more like it came off of a futuristic robot, and that is meant in the most complimentary way...it is absolutely beautiful! I say build something resembling an enclosed wheel racer with it, like a D sport racer.
It would be cool if you make some sort of 2wd utv, 2 seater. Perhaps you can gear down the engine and make a project for heavy off road stuff. Nice vid, can't wait for the next video!!
Try using some cutting lubricant when you use the cordless drill. It'll help the bit to not catch and break your wrists. And some type of lubricant for the bits on your new expensive machine too. Last alot longer.
He thinks of some awesome things and goes with it. We seem to loose the thought that we can make anything if we want to or have the tools to. Another thing is things arent being passed down like it used to be. Its always buy this or that or don't build it at all.
did you ever think about getting a quick change toolpost for your lathe? i find this really convenient on mine and they are not that expensive if you can find one used or get a good deal on it :) with the milling machine you could also make the holders yourself pretty easily and things like that would be projects i'd love to watch
Holy sh*t what are you doing ?? This is not a Rocket or something like this complicated it’s still “only” a go Kart. Respect man absolutely amazing work
You can install a flood light on a mount or stand facing your work to help with the glare from the window. It will allow the camera to get the proper lighting, while allowing your shop to remain lit up. This is a quick fix that will be a win for you and for your camera.
I think it would be really cool if you built a miniature Vintage F1 car with this drivetrain. The engine you have isn’t suited for off road use, it barely makes more torque than the GS500 engine but makes almost double the HP high in the RPM range.
I sort understand what your goal is,I think. It may help you to just get a front end diff off a Subaru or a S10 and up grade the components to what you want. S10 stuff super cheap. Im using a T5 4x4 trans and transfer case for my tractor very low gears and thinking of using the S10 front diff to make it all wheel drive when needed and PTO opposition. With the bellhousing I have small block chevy will work or swap it to small block mopar.
Yeah definitely something that needs to have. If you look at aftermarket ATV axle bearing housings I'm pretty sure that most have grease fittings in them. It's definitely a smart thing to have to simplify maintenance on a high wear item like that.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that center rolling section isn’t done. It will need some mounting brackets to allow it to be mounted to the frame. Which he most likely will weld on. Probably not the best idea to get a bunch of grease on a part that he needs to weld later.
I'm not certain but I think there were some snowmobiles in the 2000's that would start in reverse so no trans needed. If not they have simple reverse for 4 wheelers you could scavenge. Also awesome machining can't wait for the next video.
This would have to be the best video i have seen in years. The quality of the work (craftsmanship) is second to none. Keep up the great work i'm looking forward to seeing more videos soon.
Gosh I was thinking about off road + speed and prerunner/Baja racer came to mind! They are two wheel drive, have a lot of suspension travel and go really fast. THAT would be awesome.
I've always enjoyed your videos, but I have to say that far and away this has to have been my favorite video. I've always wanted to turn my own stuff and to see you consistently stepping your game up is awesome and inspiring. As always really enjoy your videos, great content, great production value keep up the good work and I look forward to your next one.
You could honestly build those and Sell them. I've been looking a long time for hub like that to put on mine. I have found some setups that actually use a starter motor connected to it for reverse. But they want a fortune for it. You got some talent kid
Truly amazing I can’t weight to see how you mont it to the chassis love it well done buddy I want to make one for a trike cheers Larrysullivan in London
time for you to get one of those keyway plunger / cutter thingos. i don't know what its called. at this rate its a toss up between your good self and this old tony for machining art work dude. keep it up man, love your work
When you cut keyways you have to take the full cut in a single pass without stopping. Otherwise the slot is oversized the cutting forces flex the cutter to the climbing side, then when you stop or back up it returns to the unloaded position cutting .005 or so from the other side.
i told you a long time ago you were the best and you are you have a job getting red beard up to pace lol should be fun watching you tw o go at it i think it will be good for both of you to be open for real great work you amaze me how far you have come
S10 cv's are commonly used in the Minibuggy setups. I think they work with certain splined 930 axles. If you plan on going with an offload setup, then your current axle length is going to hinder your travel numbers, and for offroad you want long travel specs. Inroad racing and the current axles will be fine. Check out the forum Minibuggy.net for all the info you might need from guys using the S10 setup. Im currently trying to change to RZR bolt pattern 4/156 because of the abundance of factory RZR wheels for sale at around $150 for a set! But fro me to have someone make some aluminum hubs will be costly, but in the long run worth it.
there is a function on your dro that is half. with an edge finder you can zero your dro on one of the sides of the shaft, then edgefind the other side, and use the half function, then the cero on that axis you moved, should be on the center of the shaft
As a machinist of over 40 years I have to say that while your approach is questionable at times, the outcome is outstanding. Well played young man!
I honestly wished that his videos were longer. I can sit and watch his videos for hours. He is such a great designer and builder. Keep up the excellent work. 👏

Gotta love you're doing the lathe work on a "home built". Kudos kid; from a retired general machinist.
Between the music the sounds and the visuals i find this very therapeutic
I have a set of Fox shocks off of a rzr 900 xp. They would work great for you.
gotta like this so he sees it!
Rzr 900xp Shocks are OK, but the springs suck! They Sag bad. Need to swap the springs with Eibach Springs and revale the Fox shocks.
yep I like it

Excellent work on the axle...A Keyway Broach set would a great addition to your tooling. Save you a lot of time, effort and they're money well spent.
You're motivating man! You've raised the craftsmanship and tooling bar.. These videos are fun to watch and glean all sorts of ideas from.
That is some of if not your best work that I've seen. Others are right, I haven't seen anyone else doing that level of build work.
Very nice work. All of your projects look bullet proof. If you are building an on road project I hope it’s a trike. If it’s off road I hope it’s a sand rail!
You've gone next level with this build. All the other "go-kart" guys are falling behind you.

These 2 videos. Amazing production quality suddenly. Amazing a+
You are a very brilliant individual. These videos feel my thirst for knowledge. I’d love to have the ability you do for fabrication and machines
I can't wait to see more of this build...I know it will be awesome

Major kudos to you
You're doing an awesome job I've seen machinist do sloppier work than that you have true talent keep up the great work

Oh my God , I'm so happy you are going to build something with that engine.
Loved watching that reminded me off my dad. A pure pleasure to watch someone skilled using those machines. 👍👍👍🏴✌️
Rather nice welding.And everything else also. You sir, are brilliant.

You can buy coloured cellophane to put over the windows to dim the light.
I like using mylar after insulating the window, you can see outside but they cant see in
Looking good so far!! Personally, I would go the off road route....You can always use a RZR gearbox for forward neutral & rev. is an idea...
Said it before and I’ll say it again, all the work you put in is worth way more subs than you got. All the shit you make is really cool and I feel like you deserve way more credit.

swarth?
Solar - Try the correct terminology Mark, it is called Swarf. Daz Sydney ,NSW. P.S whats this inch shit?
You have found your calling. Wow. You are a tooling beast.
Wow that is some nice work you did on the CV rear axle setup.
Good idea with the multiple keyways, engineering at its best, subscribed.
I'm more impressed with that lathe contraption you used.
You've evolved on both the machinery and the bugg constructions. Very good.i,m fron Brazil.
Now that's looking sturdy enough! Awesome welding job i might add... 👍😁
Absolutely eyes glued the entire vid. Amazing work. GREAT RESULT.
It's pretty damn impressive that you did all that, and with a homemade lathe no less.
Fine work. You may want to look into getting a broach if you plan on doing a lot of keyway style cuts. Will allow you the convenience of altering depth of cut by the thousands of an inch with considerably less filling. Saves the hands to.
Great content 👍👍
He most definitely does. A lot of pride in ur builds
That would have been a great setup for a mid-engine trike. I just came across this video, you did fantastic work.
I have been waiting for these videos for about a year. You have done everything I have been researching, even down to the S-10 CV’s.
Please do a video of the “hub” assembly in detail. I am still a little confused how the bearings are held in and correctly spaced. Thank you. Great job on the build.

Yeah this build is gonna be next level!
No one else takes the time to machine their own parts, it's always ohh they don't sell it.. do they have alternative option.

With the bellhousing I have small block chevy will work or swap it to small block mopar.
This thing is going to fly if that motor runs as good as it can!
I built one like this too what do you think? ;)
use aluminum foil to cover ur windows. don't even need tape, just spray some soapy water on the window and apply like you are applying tint
You sir must be the most skilled fabricator on UA-cam
Definitely
I built one like this too what dou you think? ;)
oh please, he's good but he's definitely not the best
Whatever you build, I wanna watch.
That’s a BADASS start !! 😳
You should check the price of a set of shocks for a diesel cub cadet side-by particularly the rear ones
Very nicely made drive axle parts.
*rather B welding* Nice work, well made video indeed. I look forward to every one.
I built one like this too what dou you think? ;)
Nicely made part. Only I could not see if you included any seals to keep dirt out of the bearings???
This is a great project! They keep getting better and better!
U should also put grease fittings for the axles bearings
Logan Zister Ahhh you beat me to it. Yeah those bearings aren’t going to last long at all, because there was absolutely no grease on them.
Yeah definitely something that needs to have. If you look at aftermarket ATV axle bearing housings I'm pretty sure that most have grease fittings in them. It's definitely a smart thing to have to simplify maintenance on a high wear item like that.
wheeln 24/7 If I can’t see the grease on them in video then there’s not enough grease.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that center rolling section isn’t done. It will need some mounting brackets to allow it to be mounted to the frame. Which he most likely will weld on. Probably not the best idea to get a bunch of grease on a part that he needs to weld later.
Also add grease seals.
I like all your precision machining, then the percussive adjustment at 24:50 :)
I'm not certain but I think there were some snowmobiles in the 2000's that would start in reverse so no trans needed. If not they have simple reverse for 4 wheelers you could scavenge.

Super nice work and when you're finished you're unsprung weight will be minimum you will like that
If you want to go 2 seater you should get some longer CV axles
Great machine work; you are extremely talented for your age.
Great job I think its going to work great..... I think a sandrail would be really cool! Thanks for working so hard. Best of luck!!!

Takes a lot of patience for stuff like this to be machined.
Truly amazing I can’t weight to see how you mont it to the chassis love it well done buddy I want to make one for a trike cheers Larrysullivan in London
time for you to get one of those keyway plunger / cutter thingos. i don't know what its called. at this rate its a toss up between your good self and this old tony for machining art work dude. keep it up man, love your work
For what lil u have to work with. Ur the man. Keep them coming bro. And happy new years
When you cut keyways you have to take the full cut in a single pass without stopping. Otherwise the slot is oversized the cutting forces flex the cutter to the climbing side, then when you stop or back up it returns to the unloaded position cutting .005 or so from the other side.
I've never seen a shaft centering technique like that on the mill. Looks pretty quick
Nice video
Nice work, enjoyed watching the machining happen.
