Man that sure looks sweet. You should take the time to admire your hard work, & it really transformed your A.C. Hopefully You'll get a chance on a complete respray; As well as new decals. Again thanks for the videos, & You shouldn't scare brother like that LOL.
Beautiful job on that rim that you welded in a section from another tractor rim; That donor rim judging by the color looks like it came from a J D. Again beautiful job.
I've been waiting for a video on this subject to come out . I had the same problem with wheels on my 59 M-F 50. I did get the rims repaired from a tire shop that knew how to weld in sections from a another tractor rim, & I had new tires put on; I'm not filling the tires with anything. I plan on taking the wheels off with the tires on, & unbolting the centers out, & leave the rims with the rails on with the tires still attached. My ? is can you do it that way? As I want to repaint my wheels the same way; Silver outside with the center being repainted red. I think it can be done this way, & any help to my question would be helpful, & thank You for doing a video on this subject.
i installed one i had lying around, i think it is strong enough. consider, many garage doors are pretty heavy. worth a shot since it won't kill anyone if it breaks. I usually keep a spare cable or a ratchet strap in case the cable breaks.
You really need to be able to visually tell when you have reached the highest lifting point of the blade when retracting the cable. Also a large spring mounted on the end of the cable and the attachment point on the blade helps to absorb the strain of over retracting the cable at the highest point of the lift.
Hi, does it matter which way the foil faces? I would have assumed you would face them inwards to reflect heat but then facing it out could reflect the cold...so it kinda sounds like it doesnt matter..... ???
question - where did you source your tire machine. Obviously, if you change more than , like two, big tractor tires, you'll be searching for one of those!
Things were going SO well, until you put a piece of plastic fuel line so close to the stove. I can't say I agree with it as it stands, getting it further away would be better, a glass/pyrex sight tube would be much better that close to the stove. I do like 2.0 fan and controller.
Thanks for your advice, the atv handled it fine all last NY winter, couldn't be more pleased. I was actually quite impressed with how well It pushed even heavy snow.
@@sheisillme Exactly!! I have used a 60" on my bike for five years now and my bike has zero issue pushing large amounts of snow and even wet snow. I even have the sides on my plow, so I move A LOT of snow.
Delete the opening music - (ff to see the good stuff) this is a really good idea! Ive plowed with various trucks over the years and the Vertical lift is much easier on the equipment. good on you for such a simple solution. an easy add on and yet another reason to have that welder in the garage :) and see? I told you I was going to use that scrap someday :D
calcium rotted my rims out as well. I got new rims and got the tires back on a couple of weeks ago but it was over $16/gallon for the new fangled anti freeze liquid. I haven't looked at my options but I hope windshield washer fluid is cheaper than that. What did you do?
Super heated steam was used during 1950's in Texas by US servicmen to run used fuel oil furnace on water line. Oil used to preheat fire pot and S.S. coil tubing + water to 1500 degrees. T fitting and extra valves mounted. When up to temperature, oil valve shut off. The resulting hydrogen and oxygen torch flame continues furnace running. 90 lbs pressure + 90lbs water lines with dual pumps and central motor with blower. U.S. patent application filed, but only resulted in final printing of 50% increase in efficiency with ordinary steam as only allowed to public. ( The change of high pressure to AMBIANT through tiny spray nozzel allowed for extreme vibration of vapor molecules that separated to gases,- at a much LOWER unusual high temperature. ) A much smaller demonstrator was built and shown to Senater in large wooden box with fire brick chamber and steel ring with holes- like coleman stove. Units have to be restarted on fuel oil.
Nice compact design I make 2-3 custom splitters a year as a hobby/side hustle.. I do have 2 concerns for you to consider on your unit one is the tank size the other is how the return enters the tank both can cause issues with cavitation of your hydo fluid and excessive heat build up. Doesn't look like the tan capacity is large enough to supply that cylinder and the hoses and to have about 30 - 40% additional fluid for cooling under even moderate use. Also need about 20% more tank space than oil levels for expansion as the hydo fluid heats up. Second issue is the return line looks like it drops fluid straight into the top of the tank which again causes cavitation ( bubbling of the fluid) allowing trapped air in the cylinders, the return line should return fluid to the bottom of the tank to prevent cavitation and it should enter the tank far away from your suction line out so that the fluid has some time to mix and cool some in the tank before circulating back into the cylinder and hoses.
I need to do the same thing with my tractor is to rebuild pump or have it rebuilt, it would probably be best to have someone that is familiar with rebuilding it, if you are interested hit me up I'm not sure if there is a rebuilt kit available, if interested reply thank you
Since he mentioned Pennsylvania, it probably is Sandy Lake Implement . They are an excellent source of AC parts and also rebuild the hydraulic pumps themselves if you need to go that route.
