You never know what the day will bring operating an 800 acre wholesale nursery while running 150 head of beef cattle. Here to share videos of mechanic work, welding, and general farm repairs. I will be posting truck and shop tours, tool reviews, quick tips and how to’s. Thanks for checking out the channel!
I have had some that were really seized in place and I’ve used a cutoff wheel to cut the inside/body out of the u joint then the cap itself becomes a bit easier to get out with heat, spray and vice, press etc. you could also beat it out as long as you support the ears of the drive shaft so they don’t get bent up.
Could you take some actual measurements of the unit HF says it’s almost 4 ft long and I’m not seeing I’m assuming the mean with the wheel kit on but I want to know what it is with it off. Thank you sir
The x lock grinder wheels are cheaper than the regular ones. Lol you can buy Makita, Bosch, or Diablo all make X lock accessories. Idk I find it kinda strange that there’s really no downside to x-lock & yet for some reason it’s not the industry standard yet. Probably just because no one else can make x-lock grinders except Makita & Bosch cause of the patents.
That’s probably the only reason. It’s a great design but I can’t find them anywhere within 50 miles of where I’m located and can’t find cutting wheels anywhere
@@moejr14 sorry to break it to you but it’s not mean to tell the truth to someone. Want to start a mobile welding business? Are you a good welder? You know how to burn rod in all positions? You know how to choose what rod works best for what circumstances? You have money for a truck, welder, business insurance?
@@moejr14 you left a comment on a public forum. Public means that anyone can see or reply. So, lesson number one is don’t do that. Lesson two is to take welding classes in high school or if you’re able to do trade school type thing while still in high school. Then by the time you graduate you’ll have basic skills. Also the instructors usually have contacts in those trades. Get yourself an inexpensive machine to practice on as well. Get into pipe welding or stainless and aluminum TIG work. Stay away from drugs and alcohol. Stick with it if it’s something you’re serious about and you’ll be making around $100,000 per year by the time your friends are graduating college crying about their debt.
Looks like the owner of that poor truck doesn't even know where the hood latch is 😂 Harbor Freight sells a shower valve kit for $12 that works well to remove the IPR Valve.
Hello Paul, I have really enjoyed watching your videos very informative and interesting so thank you for posting. What other books do you have in your collection please, and what others would you recommend purchasing? Thank you. Best regards, Stefano (UK).
Haha I know it sounds crazy. But this was a brand new machine and the trailblazer was very used and the hours were unknown. Also the footprint. Not sure if you can tell from the videos but I would have to plate and reinforce the top of my device body to mount a welder. I liked how the Vulcan fit down in the bed with room to spare
Your videos would be much more pleasant to view if you would hold the phone horizontally instead of vertically. You would get much more in the field of view.
The main reason I would prefer a Miller or Lincoln over Vulcan is accessibility to parts if needed. So far I haven’t had any issues or needed anything for my welder though and hopefully it stays that way!
Depends on if you're also powering an air compressor while powering the plasma... or using an engine drive air compressor to lessen the electrical load.
Does it not have an auto idle down setting? For when you stop a weld it idles down until tou strike an arc again? Could you do a test and see if you leave the welding power switch in the off position if it will still weld but then idle back down when you stop the weld please
It does have auto idle if your not welding or using a tool plugged into the outlets it will idle itself down. I’ve never tried welding with the welding power turned off though
@@mikemiller5268 gotcha so only idles down on the ac generator side when no load is being applied. I don’t really understand why they designed it to need full constant power in weld mode. It should idle down in between welds like most engine driven welders IMO. Maybe I’m just familiar with this newer technology on engine drives
@RWB Outdoors cost wise compared to all of others ,I can live with it. I like how smooth it welds. I've built pipe corrals and done implement repair, so far its worked good for me.
This machine runs 6010 perfectly. The reason the new inverter based welders struggle with 6010 is because they have a really low open circuit voltage, usually around 30v. You need over 50v. The Outlaw has 70-78 open circuit voltage. No worries!
Yes I run it daily. Some days it may only get run for 30 minutes and other days it may run all day. It all depends on the job but so far I haven’t had any issues
Would love a video about the tools you would buy if you know you want to do this! also maybe a background on the experience you have and what experience or education you think was most valuable to you? love the vids so far
@@sebastiansalas5210 Amazing man, I have a small short video on my page so u can see how I have it rigged up. I’m going to be doing a full review soon so be on the lookout
Interesting to see what other techs are using. I see a few items I'm probably going to invest in. Haven't seen those type of hose spoons. If you get a chance get some of the 1/4 inch half cut VIM hex and torx sockets.
