@@RustyInventions-wz6ir it’s nice to know that there are other people out there who still do things the way I do. For ever I thought that there is no way in hell that anyone else would even understand what I was doing let alone why I do it
It does,t quite show from the camera angle but it's enough that the front wheels are actually leaving skid marks on the pavement. I have shorted up the tie rod now and its better . Keep on watching there will be more videos of it soon. thanks for watching
@@riverfrontww keep watching and maybe I will provide you with enough inspiration to build something similar or at least how to do it without so many steps in the wrong direction
@@RustyInventions-wz6ir thanks for watching. It’s nice to know that others can understand the weird stuff that is floating around in my head and that I am not completely dysfunctional haha
Using what you got is how I grew up. Building stuff like this is how many of the tools we have today got started. You keep at it and you will be using that thing to get the jobs done !
@@christopherdunson8079 well don’t try to get off the way I did I’m still paying for it 3 weeks later. Thanks for watching and check out the rest of my videos some are pretty cool
@@HillBillyVoodoo It's amazing even when using the kiss principal that Murphy always seems to have the time to show up and put his two cents in, however that's how we get knowledge. Cheers.
I know you're not loading 36 inch 16foot white oak logs with it , but have you made a guestimate as to how much she will "safely" lift??? I have enough since to know that smaller equipment hasta be used easily , or you're gonna break stuff. But sometimes something heavy hasta be moved.
@@coburnlowman no idea how much it will safely lift but I have moved 36” 10’ fir logs on to the sawmill with the counter weight on the rear with no problem
@@HillBillyVoodoo Yeah that's nothing to sneeze at. It's probably plenty strong enough to self destruct if it were pushed too hard. I just found your channel a couple days ago. Have been enjoying your content
@@coburnlowman yup if you get a bit greedy and don’t have the weight on the back it will chuck you right over the steering wheel. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for some other cool stuff I have coming up
awh man you went down hard. gonna be sore tomorrow. i never even gave a thought to it being top heavy till you dumped it. i bet your most upset about your pants more than anything
@@rockcrusher4636 ya its pretty much uncontrollable on the pavement and feels like you’re slamming on the brakes as soon as the wheels stop skidding at all
Gear ratio is 3, 6, 9 the goose drank wine, the monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line, the line broke,the monkey got choked, and they all went to heaven in a little row boat, clap clap.LOL. Cheers mate.
You've gotta be happy with a self made pulley from a home harvested ally slug and a genius laminated tip tool. use what you got....great stuff. Don't forget.......you actually got out of your chair and made a vehichle !!! Legend.
that worked pretty good for a fix! your homemade pulley is amazing too and the fact you even cast the slug of aluminum yourself. the epitome of homemade
Ya I need to spend some time this month casting some more blanks, the scrap aluminum box is getting out of hand and the blanks and round stock is really low. Thanks for watching
hey hillbilly use the axle shaft you got on there for a jack shaft. cut the hubs off and add another axle shaft behind your existing shaft with another pair of bearings and run a chain between the two. basically just add another axle behind the one you got and weld your hubs on. then you dont have to change any of the clutch or brake parts you made.
I know that feeling when a great plan doesn’t work as planned. It moved and the mechanics seemed actually pretty good. I think you need a better clutch though
Thanks for the support. Sometimes I just need to go for a ride and get some perspective on problems to keep myself from getting frustrated keep watching I think I got a solution
