that is EXACTLY how you are supposed to use a chop saw! Best instructional vid on YT! *thanks for the vids Donn... Favorite fabrication channel on the YT.
I was thinking to myself “it’s about time to dust of the lathe and milling machines”, and BAM! Here you go! It’s great to see you performing your magic with the grinder too! Can’t wait for the next episode...keep ‘em coming!!!!
Hello Donn, what about that detailed video? I really want to try to make my own crusher. Maybe just put the measurements of your cuts, or even just follow the video and put notes on it. This was you won't have to do a whole new video. Thank you,
@Donn DIY You finally found something that breaks, normally everything you make is unbreakable lol. Great video by the way. Mark, Perth, Western Australia
Donn I'm actually surprised that a man of your amazing talents hasn't built a horizontal metal cutting bandsaw. This looks like a awesome beginning to another great build series
@@DonnDIY donny you are an inspiration to a lot of people tour creative ingeniously solution to what you need is amazing keep it up brother best wishes from a farm in Iowa
My dad and I built a metal spiral staircase (for my kids clubhouse that is 10 feet or 3m off the ground on telephone poles) after we watched a lot of your videos, we figured, why not just Donn DIY it! I'll have to send you a photo of it to your IG! I'll do that now, LOL!
Donn, I think that you will find that the reo bar on the jaws will wear out quickly as it is only a low grade mild steel. You could possibly increase the service life by raising the carbon content through carburising the steel. You would need to make a suitably sized firing kiln and get some carburising material. Or you could just buy some hardfacing welding rods or wire. Choice is yours as always mate. Mark from Melbourne Australia
You have a great sense of humour, Donn, hanging on the saw... 😉👉😬😯! I really enjoy watching your genius and skill building practical equipment for use at your home.
UA-cam Sensation. I can't believe you don't have Millions of Subscribers. Thank you for everything you have shown. You are a true Master. JLucasound. United States of America. I built the iRobot B21R.
Donn, just some FYI, if you want the bearing race to fit tight, machine it out to the right specifications, then put the bearing race in the freezer for an hour, bring it out and drop it in the hole. It will be just a bit loose until the race warms up. To remove an old race from a pocket, weld around the inside middle of the race and let it cool. At room temperature the race will shrink.
A tip regarding welding 6mm+ steel like this. To get best weld you should always leave a gap in the root, the bevels should also be ground to a thinner edge, roughly the thickness of your rod/wire. Also the gap should be about the width of the rod/wire. This is the only way you get full melt of the material to be joined and filler material reaching the reverse side of the weld. After doing a root run on lower amps (working on the thin edge of bevel) you do a capping run on higher amps with thicker rod/wire doing a side to side weave.
When you whacked that thing I thought you'd built a giant tuning fork :-) Anyway, always love watching you upcycle rusty old scrap! Already longing for the next video.
I'm loving this. I worked at a rock quarry. We had a jaw crusher that would crush Volkswagen size rocks. I could watch that thing all day. Theres something about a rock that size jumping up and down inside the jaw till it gets a bite into it and starts pulverizing it down to 3" stones. So cool.
@@DonnDIY This just shows ya that it doesn't matter what side of the world you are on, guys are guys and we all like cool stuff. I was literally watching mini jaw crusher videos last week. Lol, we're all just big kids.
Wow, what a surprise new build! Two things strike me; the very loose fit of the outer ring of the bearing and that you use rebar in the jaws.. Common rebar is actually very soft and is made of mixed scrap metal (but cheap to replace), maybe you should add Loctite or similar to fix the outer ring harder as the bearing will endure a lot of forces and vibrations. Edu tõõle!
He said that the rebar he used is from old (electric?)fence posts. We have some very similar electric fence posts which are made of some kind of spring steel, maybe the ones he used are also made of that material, it seems to be pretty tough... He can also use those hard facing welding rods to weld a rope on every rebar stick... I also don't trust the loose fit on that bearing housing, i think it will work loose and the bearing will rattle around in that housing after a few uses. I had a similar problem with a wheel bearing on a trailer, it was a little too easy to press the new bearing in (not even as easy as his bearing went in)and it made weird noises while driving. I used loctite to glue the bearing into the wheel hub and the noise was gone
Hi Donn, Just when I think you can't surprise me anymore, you come up with another interesting project. You sure got my curiosity going on this one again. Thanks for the video.
I saw that 😊 We have an long arm so you can move it to where you work. And a kind of funnel and flexible pipe that goes to the ventilator. But you are good at using mask 👍
Ah yes, I see what you mean. I have a couple of used Fumex fume extractor tubes in the barn bought for this exact purpose but I haven't gotten around to install'em. They're great indeed!🤘
I recommend making a helicopter for next project, the construction period is expected to be about 1 year, you have good skills, your living environment is suitable for flying helicopters, you should be able to do it
next project over head crane to lift the Jaw Rock Crusher off the welding table ,, then a wrecker boom for the utv to move it around the farm ... looks like it will be a heavy duty unit . question is roughly the size of rock and concrete that will fit in the unit soft ball size basket ball size ?? keep up the great videos ..
@@DonnDIY ok sounds like a good plan.. I have neck and lower back problems.. had surgery both locations.. I have to watch what I lift .. it's always better to work smarter.. keep up the great videos.. love watching them ..
For you have a good workshop and for being a polymath in which you do, I congratulate you. You could consider for your next project to make Can-am XMR 1000 with caterpillar, Russian tractor with caterpillar backhoes. Desde Argentina
I is nice to see good welds. That is certainly some heavy scrap iron you have. I understand the need for free or next to free but if that is mild steel it will wear a lot. You should get you some hardfacing wire and apply it to the plates. I know about this mainly from a friend who has a robotics welding company that makes welders for hardfacing the inside of pipes and valves.
@ 9.51 Donn is not making a jaw crusher but a Donn sized Tuning Fork! Coming soon Donn makes a Donn sized musical instrument for his Heavy Metal Band, Donn and the Magnets!

This will be an exciting build. Have tried to find homemade crusher builds in the past, but none were very detailed. Looking forward to the series.
I have a video that's not very detailed, but I am working on a second version right now that will be detailed.

I'm sure your video creation will be nice for many viewer to wacth.

Omg, vintage DonnDiy, thank you so much for this. You are an inspiration, this is gonna be f-ing awesome. Cant wait for the next episode.
Loved the bit at the end 😂😂😂. Looks like another amazing build so far, looking forward to how it turns out!
Cheers mate!
DONN!!! Need I say more. (I did). Love this guy. I wish the people working around me were as good as him.
Love the face drawn on your saw lol!
"Why do I need it?" Please, you had me at "crusher". no further explanation necessary!
@Donn DIY
You finally found something that breaks, normally everything you make is unbreakable lol. Great video by the way.

Thank you Donn. I really think you work is getting better and better and great to watch as things come together. Cheers🥂
when you put the bearing into its housing I heard your voice in my head saying "like a glove" :D
Yes, me too. 😁
Me alegro volverte a ver en tus trabajos , eres todo un GRAN MAESTRO

Crushed rocks tend to be pretty sharp so you might want to build a rock tumbler next.
Otherwise you might pop your tires if you drive on that gravel.
Good idea!
Most interesting indeed, can't wait for the next video and to see it cracking some uh.... whatever! 😄😎👍👍
Yes, I guess we're not gonna limit ourselves to only rocks. It can probably crush many other mediums as well. Old TV-s, PC-s, you name it. 😁
