Think I usually say ‘oh bollocks’ when I snap a bolt off, couldn’t help but smile but I felt your pain. Another five minute job now running into hours. Thank you for the continued content, it’s genuinely fabulous and so many of us love it .
Worked for a State highway Dept. that plowed snow on 3 mountain passes in California. Rust was exceled by salt and brine in some areas. We used to carry a wax candle in our tool box To help us remove broken or rusted bolt. Heat up the area around the broken head or threads and the wax would wick down that treads lubricating them and allowing easier removal.
Nice work, Oliver. It's always a pleasure to watch your work. Maybe one day, when time allows, you could give us a quick tour of the farm and all the bits you support. Just a thought. Enjoy Welland! Cheers.
Induction heater coil over head of bolt or air chisel with round rod directly on end to shake rust loose. Never used either myself but others have had great luck my milling machine bed has locks on the x and y to keep it from moving when boring...
@@daleburrell6273 Allis Chalmers did on the 190 XT and maybe some other models in that era where the turbo mounts to the manifold Found out when I tried to cut one off with a torch.
The biggest problem with these videos is that I could watch them all day! I used to do a bit of agricultural engineering 50 years ago, my greatest regret is that I didn’t stay at it😢 Well done Oliver, you’re an inspiration to watch at work
Not a good idea on a cast iron manifold. Too big a risk of cracking it if you hammer on a boss on the tubing. Might be worth a try on the manifold bolts into the block
Nice long video again. Thanks Oliver. And thanks for the Anchorlube shout out. Today’s episode was watched earlier than usual and was washed down with a mug of coffee and probably the worst bacon and egg sandwich I’ve ever. And I cooked it! I hope you enjoyed the steam fair. Have a great week ahead. Mike
I love the fact that you can still buy parts off the shelf for a 40 year old tractor ! I had a Honda motorcycle that was just ten years old that needed exhaust headers & I couldn’t buy a new part from anywhere.
Thanks for your informative videos and Thanks for not adding background music like a lot of providers do I'd rather just hear the equipment running or your narrations about what process your using.
A good variety of jobs completed this week. The 4cx machines are interesting with steering on all wheels. I hope you enjoy the Welland steam rally, I've seen videos of the past years shows. Thanks for making the film. Brian from South Yorkshire.
These gas-less MIG welders are very handy. I have two of them, a small one I started with which has a maximum capacity of welding 1.2mm plate and a 100A one that I use now, which can weld 4mm plate. I've done a fair amount of MIG welding over time and I have never used anything other than a gas-less MIG. The main disadvantages are the fumes and the slag, but good ventilation in the workshop is essential and they are good for outdoor welding when there;s a breeze. I use bits of plywood to protect the concrete in my workshop and on the driveway.
That bolt snapping was inevitable unfortunately, seen it so many times it's the nature of the beast as far as TW's are concerned, sorry for all the trouble it caused you, but that is life. Then you got your normal route of over engineering the thumb mount. I know you can't help it, making things better than they came in, but after all it is just a static thumb. Then you use an old sheet of plywood to perform gymnastics to replace the plate. I must say that Jasic set looks brilliant. all the work you have done with it is a serious hint to buy it for myself, only I don't weld anymore! thanks for all you do Ollie, you are a master of understatement when it comes to the work you do. Those welds with the coated wire looked excellent (- the porosity) but that is not going to be under stupid stresses, under normal conditions hopefully. And if shows you get what you pay for with that wire. best wishes as always .
Great work as usual Ollie, I run into the same issues often when customers think their being helpful by bringing in their own material that is the size of the finished part not thinking that with plasma it’s easier to start with something larger rather then waste time lining up edges and that sort.
Great Sunday morning video ollie. A few different items and different views how to as always . Hmm a stuck bolt .. never fun as many say you're only a half turn away from a 5 minute job to a pain in the rear job .. love the overlaid title.. you asked nicely ..😂 at least it didn't get to the liquid stage having to resort to burning out with the torch .. thanks again for the insight into your week ..😊
I worked on a job at Port Adelaide building grain silos some years ago & every joint was welded with Lincoln Inner-shield wire. 211 for the tank bodies & roofs & 232 for the heavy structural, all welds were logged & visually inspected, some mag particled & the heavy structural welds were ultra-sound tested, (AS1554 part 1). The site was very wind-swept which had no effect on the weld quality, the wire is very voltage sensitive so a clean earth point & tight connections were essential, also we were running long welding leads to the LN25 wire feeders were were using which meant jacking up the voltage to compensate, always use 25mm+ electrical stick-out for best results but when it’s dialled in right it goes great & fast, it’s a good product, did n’t realise it was so expensive.
Hope you had a great time down our neck of the woods, at least you had the weather for it, i saw a few traction engines about on Thursday plus a steam lorry very cool, my late dad said how they were about all the time when he was a lad, i missed out on the sign, maybe next time 🙂
I have a work platform for my forklift, can reach the hydraulic lift lever with a piece of electrical conduit to raise me up, and have a rope to pull the lever forward to lower the platform, I use it all the time, no climbing ladder any more, Thanks for the videos
Oliver, those plates you have are great. How about sending them to bloggers like, Welderfabber and his mates. You never know they'll give you a shout out. Cheers.
It’s good to see you using that table. You got it a few shows back and we lost sight of it. I’d a thot it would’ve become a focus pint for all of your table work.
Ollie, if you want fire blankets, buy some kitchen fire blankets. They are quite cheap and are excellent for protecting things like windows. Can be brought in various sizes too.
have you ever run dual shield wire, its both flux core and uses gas. Seems like a nice process, bit more forgiving than mig for cleanliness, and better penetration.
Did a check on our welding table same make as yours but only 1 x 1.5 metre also has all the clamps & brackets same as yours only ours was not new when we got it came from another site as a result of being on wheels & being overloaded it has a 1.5 mm dip in it but great bit of kit
Another interesting video with three different jobs. You certainly get a variety of work in and having access to the farm equipment makes things easier for you. No doubt you do a few farm jobs for free as well.
Great video. Have you thought about putting in some sort of gantry crane? Would save your back and could be a bit more maneuverable around the mill etc.
Have you checked that the gibs are taking up the table wear correctly. A sign that they are not is that when you lock the table in a particular axis prior to machining, the DRO value may change significantly. Thanks for the vids.
Consider cutting bracket when you have a bolt that looks like its not going to move and cut new bracket the same and just weld new to old usually quicker
For covering glass i just use cheap kitchen fire blankets from ebay plus extinguisher man gave me 3 out of date ones from his van they are good for wraping hot part to slow cool rate dowd
Another great video! Get you some rest, Monday coming- haha. What do I need to do to get one of your cut outs? Been sick 😫 so might have missed a couple of videos.
After heating the stud you MUST let the whole thing cool in order for the thread to release. especialy Cast Iron.. Why was the lowloader not sandblasted before any welding was done????
I worked with a mechanic many years ago.. when asked how tight do you want it..his response was ... tighten it..till it snaps..then back it off..half a turn.😂
Hey Oliver nice job lad! i couldnt help but notice your milling table moving as you are boring the holes. Maybe check your table clamps? not picking just an observation.
You need to weld on the volt.first and build up weld using a 309L or312L filler wire using lift arc tig that will heat up the bolt, then weld the nut on. Takes a few goes sometimes but does work. Done dozens of them.
Olly, have you ever tried the wax crayon technique to free a snapped stud or bolt? The capillary action often works better as spray lubricants often boil off before seeping into the thread

Enjoy Welland! Cheers.
I was very glad to see you use a man basket instead of standing on a pallet.
Plate arrived Oliver. Looks great on workshop wall, thanks very much.
Your fixture table sure is dandy. A worthwhile investment for a man who takes pride in his work.
Good for you! 👍
I’ve removed many a broken stud over the years,
I started using left handed Drill bits
Induction heater coil over head of bolt or air chisel with round rod directly on end to shake rust loose. Never used either myself but others have had great luck my milling machine bed has locks on the x and y to keep it from moving when boring...
This was fun seeing a few quicker projects.
If you could invent an exhaust nut that doesn’t rust to the manifold you’d be set for life!
Brass, as fitted to early mini
...titanium...(?)
Bostik Never Seez Pure Nickel Special is not cheap but by many reviewed as the best against heat and rust.
@@daleburrell6273 Allis Chalmers did on the 190 XT and maybe some other models in that era where the turbo mounts to the manifold Found out when I tried to cut one off with a torch.
Stainless steel bolt/stud/.set screw is what it needs.some penny pincher at the factory years ago knew this but thought they would save some money.
The biggest problem with these videos is that I could watch them all day! I used to do a bit of agricultural engineering 50 years ago, my greatest regret is that I didn’t stay at it😢 Well done Oliver, you’re an inspiration to watch at work
Sometimes an air hammer can help break the rust bond on a stuck bolt if thermal shock doesn’t do it.
Nice one mate !
Not a good idea on a cast iron manifold. Too big a risk of cracking it if you hammer on a boss on the tubing. Might be worth a try on the manifold bolts into the block
At the first Ford dealership (cars and pickups) I worked at as a mechanic, we referred to the torch as the "Ford wrench" for good reason.
Man basket super job
Just a suggestion try using a candle instead of easing oil does not burn off and seeps into the threads. Great vid.

Broken bolts, everybody's nightmare, well done !
So easy to snap , something that been over tightened X amount of years ago .

Yep like they say “any 5 min job is only a broken volt away from 2 hours of pain” 😂👍

I worked at Viterra in port Adelaide, best job I ever had.
Your new table is a miniature of the huge floor plates shipyards used to use to bend ship rib girders.
Usually when the bed is wobbling it's a good thing.😉 But it's defiantly not a good thing when your machining.🍻
Great to see the merch flying off the shelfs!
Nice work as always. That bracket on top of the JCB could have benefited from a few speed-holes. Nearly the same strength and a bit less weight.
Hope you had a great time down our neck of the woods, at least you had the weather for it, i saw a few traction engines about on Thursday plus a steam lorry very cool, my late dad said how they were about all the time when he was a lad, i missed out on the sign, maybe next time 🙂

Ollie if you want to keep your drill level, put a large washer IE half inch on a quarter inch bit and if you keep it in the middle you are level.
Get you one of them air hammer bolt buster set ups they work
Oliver, those plates you have are great. How about sending them to bloggers like, Welderfabber and his mates. You never know they'll give you a shout out. Cheers.
Hey Ollie, nice few repairs. Great work. Enjoy your day off
It’s good to see you using that table. You got it a few shows back and we lost sight of it. I’d a thot it would’ve become a focus pint for all of your table work.
I hope you enjoyed your day at the Steam Show. And you done a great job on your repairs. Love your Chanel Oliver.
Great video! It looked like that frame on the JCB folds down to allow access. It was a good bit of work to get all the way up above the cab.
I always admire your welds. Good job. Hey from USA
Another great Sunday morning video, cheers Oliver 👍
Nice projects Oliver! Thanks for the vids.
Ollie, if you want fire blankets, buy some kitchen fire blankets. They are quite cheap and are excellent for protecting things like windows. Can be brought in various sizes too.
Thanks for filming. That was nice video.
If my lotto numbers ever come up im buying a farm and a tw ford just so i can mow grass all day . Some nice jobs well done this week Oliver.
Every video i see you using the Kutavar, you are definitely getting your money’s worth!!
I use it for almost every job. I don’t know how people manage without. 😆
Your painting skills are improving Oliver. 😉
Great to meet you in person yesterday Ollie. Hope you had a great time. Dave.
You too! I did, Welland steam rally is fantastic!
@@snowballengineering it really is - so much stuff there and a great atmosphere
have you ever run dual shield wire, its both flux core and uses gas. Seems like a nice process, bit more forgiving than mig for cleanliness, and better penetration.
Another great Sunday night viewing. Thanks for the video
Thank you Oliver
Wow! Three repairs on this one! Great video! Young lad! Keep up the great content! Thanks for sharing! 👌👍

I would suggest a good induction heater , my fairly small one has been doing a good job for me.
Always so enjoyable watching your work 😊😊
Great work as usual Oliver. I hope you had a good weekend. Looking forward to the next video.
Hi Oliver, interesting jobs mate, thanks for the video, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
Had to laugh about your comment when the bolt broke off just shows how a down to earth bloke you are well done again
Awesome video, thank you Oliver . Great work
Great video. Have you thought about putting in some sort of gantry crane? Would save your back and could be a bit more maneuverable around the mill etc.
Ollie you should invest in some left hand drill bits so when you get to the nearest size they normally unwind with the drill bit.
Very good work as always. Great video.
Have you checked that the gibs are taking up the table wear correctly. A sign that they are not is that when you lock the table in a particular axis prior to machining, the DRO value may change significantly. Thanks for the vids.
i only live 2mins from welland i must say its a fantastic show 👌👌👌👌
Have you tried moving your start and stops on the plasma cutter inside the circle, will give you cleaner holes.
Spot on vidio, have a good Sunday 🙂👍
I've found fire blankets work well for covering windows and things from sparks and splatter
I’m a firm believer in inner shield wire
Thank you Oliver. 👌🥇
Great mate ! Thanks👍
Consider cutting bracket when you have a bolt that looks like its not going to move and cut new bracket the same and just weld new to old usually quicker
Again another wonderful video and good work.
Oh shucks...is not what I say when a bolt breaks. That pipe really made you exhausted.
That new welding table made the second job a lot easier. It would have been pretty difficult to do this job on your old bench.
That neat, I have one of those coming to Kellyville, OK in the USA. Mmaybe it was one that was being burnt 😊
17:48 battleship welds are always the best.
For covering glass i just use cheap kitchen fire blankets from ebay plus extinguisher man gave me 3 out of date ones from his van they are good for wraping hot part to slow cool rate dowd
I wondered how long you were going to try with the socket before you brought the heat
Another great video! Get you some rest, Monday coming- haha. What do I need to do to get one of your cut outs? Been sick 😫 so might have missed a couple of videos.
I hope you had a great day at the steam rally.
I can only see your clothes on the website.
Keep up the great work. Derek
Apparently, if you use white out to mark your centers, the torch won’t make them go away or burn them off
After heating the stud you MUST let the whole thing cool in order for the thread to release. especialy Cast Iron.. Why was the lowloader not sandblasted before any welding was done????
Nice job, well done !!
Bought one of them. I sure do like it.
some nice work there Snow. oh and hair cut.
A small scissor lift would be pretty handy in your shop
I worked with a mechanic many years ago.. when asked how tight do you want it..his response was ... tighten it..till it snaps..then back it off..half a turn.😂
so they cam sit upright love ur vids
Good work snowball 😊
Oliver, bolt induction heaters, have come way down in price, the last few years.
Best wishes from Rupert's Land.👍👍😎
Hey Oliver nice job lad! i couldnt help but notice your milling table moving as you are boring the holes. Maybe check your table clamps? not picking just an observation.
Noticed that too, mostly on that last hole and that's probably where the chatter came from ? As you say, check gib condition and table clamps.
Quality job. Show you are going to sounds interesting. Thanks for the videos.
You need to weld on the volt.first and build up weld using a 309L or312L filler wire using lift arc tig that will heat up the bolt, then weld the nut on. Takes a few goes sometimes but does work. Done dozens of them.
Don’t recall hearing you mention disconnecting the battery when welding on machines. Do you do that as a matter of course ?
Awesome job Oliver,
Would love some merch but think a bit far to send or post it to New Zealand.
Keep up the great work.
...another great vlog OS, keep em coming
solid gold, great channel
