I received a couple of parts that were badly broken that come off a Silver Manufacturing Co. post drill press that is 100+ years old. The gear and feed arm were broken during shipping and will need to be brazed back together. In this video we'll work on the gear. I use a combination of fixturing and clamps to hold all of the parts together for brazing. For the brazing filler rods I am using my Eutectic Xuper 146 XFC premium brazing rods. These are high quality rods that will provide good strength for the life of these parts. Because of the amount of work needed for these parts this will be a multi part video series on the repair. #abom79 #brazing #industrialrepair #gear #vintagetools #oldtools #postdrill

Great camera work Abby !!!

@mrbakerskatz Год назад

Yes , that was AWESOME Thanks Abby !

@johnmccorquodale6406 Год назад

In 1962 just out of high school I worked at a farm machinery repair shop in Wrens, Ga. My first job at the shop was to make long brazing rod out of short ones.

@sammiceli7645 Год назад

Adam, nice weld job. Nothing against your new shop, but I always like watching you work in the old shop. Must be the older equipment and the way the shop is set up. I like old stuff.... Quincy, Massachusetts

Nothing beats a bit of Abom79 after a long day at work! keep up the great work!

@philipallard8026 Год назад

I’ve not seen brazing filmed this clearly before. I could clearly see the interaction between the flame and the rod. This should be a standard for technical schools.

*Trading schools

@r2db Год назад

@@kramler If you really want to get picky about wording, "technical schools" is better than your suggestion because presumably a "trading school" would train someone selling stocks. The "technical schools" were, once upon a time when some of us were young, called "vocational/ technical schools" and included a significant amount of skilled trade coursework. Metal shop taught machining and welding. Wood shop taught some framing carpentry, some finish carpentry, and fine woodworking. Portions of the time were carved out for the students to get academic credit and actual on-the-job training in their chosen trade. Some no longer teach the skilled trades, but many still do.

@jerrylondon2388 Год назад

Did you miss the parts where he says he screws up. Or his monologue in part two where he blames out of practice, been years, oh the hub may not be centered. Did you even watch before commenting?

@philipallard8026 Год назад

@@jerrylondon2388 perhaps we have different views on education? I think showing things where someone eases up and admits it. That can give someone more confidence to admit their own mistakes.

@jerrylondon2388 Год назад

@philipallard8026 Then you will love part 3 where he doubles down and screws it up even more. Then finally asks the owner what kind of repair they want, wallhanger or useful? Then proceeds to do his usual "good enough" repair in a rush to get it out of his shop! "World class" I had to put that in there for the fanboys.

@cyclebuster Год назад

My dad was a certified welder with a degree from Ferris. He told me the torch never stops moving in brazing, and your to use a near elliptical pattern across the weld to draw the braze into the joint by moving the heat across it. With this method i have never failed to braze anything properly, still use his old torch set.

@msheaver Год назад

The close-up camera work is just incredible! Many thanks for bringing us in close, from all of us who will likely never experience this firsthand!

@robgoald Год назад

Wow. Abby sure got some great close-ups of that brazing. Some of the best I've seen. Many thanks to both of you!!!

@rleeAZ Год назад

The best close ups of brazing cast iron I've ever seen. Assuming Abby gets the credit there :) I like your new shop, but always feels like coming home when you're here.

Adam, Abbey is not only a beautiful woman but an excellent camera lady too, well done both of you. Joe.

@davelister2 Год назад

Adam, I'm a licenced forklift driver (although it's not how I put food on the table at the moment) and I always operate on the principle of "how I would I like to receive this if I'd ordered it for myself?" and behave accordingly, I work in a supermarket doing the home delivery but sometimes I also do shopping and I use the same idea, "would I buy this for myself?" it doesn't take much effort, physical or mental, to do things properly, some people are just lazy. My father used to work with safes and they were always coming in damaged and having to be returned, because fork jockeys and truck drivers see a safe and think "oh it's metal, it'll be fine" or "it's metal, it's heavy and doesn't need to be secured as much as the manufacturer specifies" not realising that a lot of the time the skin is relatively thin and the interior material, which provides the fire resistance, breaks from shocks and big impacts which compromises that aspect of it, making the safe worthless and unable to be sold.

@MaestroPrep Год назад

I remember learning to braze with Oxy-acetylene in the 6th grade,... in the 70's when things were cool and kids could be curious! ( a small hammer that I still have in my tool box.)... It is so sad that kids do not have shop classes these days in school. I developed a love for tools and craftsman skills in my 6th and 7th grade shop classes.. Woodshop and metal shop... We cast belt buckles, spot welded, bent steel and used machinery for candle holders, and in woodshop made family signs for our houses and learned the tools and the methods of building from wood..... I have all my items from shop class... They are very cherished items... I hope one day kids can once again learn to manufacture and build... It is a skill very much lacking in our kids education!!

@frankcurley Год назад

I too went to shop in high school in the 70's. In the 80's the education system got into "social engineering" along with liberal political movement and one of the first things that got sacrificed on this "alter" was the technical shops.

@Dreddip Год назад

I've used the techniques and processes you've demonstrated on your channel to sucessfully repair several damaged or broken castings. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate and share your knowledge. I also enjoy you taking the time to share your desire to expand your knowledge and experience in your new shop, despite those that may not be as into it as the rest, even to the point of being rude. Again, thank you for shairing on YT.

@leeklemetti1887 Год назад

Adam, this is the best brazing job I have seen you do. When Abby grabbed the camera she followed the torch so closely. It was like "Blazing Saddles" and "Ring of Fire all at once"!

@jerrylondon2388 Год назад

Did you count how many times he admitted on camera he screwed up? And yet you're fanboying "the best brazing job!" Step 1! Dye Penetrant Testing. Determine the scope of your work! It could have a dozen cracks you cannot see. It's not a child's jigsaw puzzle. It is a brittle metal that was dropped. He still needs to test for crack before proceeding. "It's cracking!" No, it was already cracked. You didn't do your prep work! Not professional. Clearly, he did line work, the same thing, all day, every day. Your general skills never improve, except that one single skill is great. Brazing, is not that skill. Nor was job planning. That is why he can't learn CNC, it requires job planning and problem solving in detail.

@patrickswagger Год назад

You haven't seen much brazing, then

@pkpropertysolutionsltd701 Год назад

I can remember the early SNS days when you were planning that side extension, now you have another shop and over half a million subs. What a journey.

I just inherited my father's shop full of tools, some of which I have no idea how to use. Watching you has taught me a great deal. I look forward to learning more about how to use some of his equipment, some of which I remember from my single digit childhood. Thank you for your clear, easy to follow descriptions of what you're doing.

@tonyn3123 Год назад

Best video brazing I have ever seen. I am not even a welding/brazing apprentice, but I love learning something I have no clue about. Most videos are just a bright 2" blinding light. This was good. Thanks.

@jerrylondon2388 Год назад

No blinding light because it was brazing, not welding.

@mdvener Год назад

AMAZING! You sir are a master at your craft. I went to university of Miami with a scholarship but working with my hands was what I really enjoyed, so I left the university, tried other jobs and became an electrician, so for 45 years that's what I did and never looked back. Best decision of my life. Was never happier. Once you find yor niche in life it gets easier.

@mickc8738 Год назад

I'm not a religious man but as far as I'm concerned that is gods work😊 so good to see the prep work, attention to detail and professionalism.

@mdvener Год назад

Love the new shop, but really good to see the home shop.

@stavrosxan Год назад

I usually set my torch lower when brazing with bronze so that bronze only melts on the nail pattern of flame at the tip of your torch, that helps me keeping the torch at a same closer distance (not moving back and forth) without melting anything else than the bronze rod. I'm sure your method works fine too, but it's what I learn from my dad who is great at brazing with bronze. Thanks a lot for your awesome content!

@zachyoung4651 Год назад

Same way my dad taught me to fix cast. Also enjoyed the video from the home shop for a change. Thanks

@patrickcolahan7499 Год назад

You need some Cleco Clamps for that. Originally developed for the aircraft industry. They are used across many industries now. There are many different formats of the Cleco clamps from hole type to hold sheetmetal aligned for assembly or jaw style clamps. I have collected a large supply of these and found they to extremely useful in all types of situations. Always amazed at the quality of brazing you can accomplish. Thanks for sharing. P.S. Glad to see you back in the original shop. You seem more comfortable here.

@cojones8518 Год назад

3:10 You're right the cog and pawl are part of the downfeed. As you crank the handle to rotate the drill there's a cam that engages the pawl's arm and it advances the downfeed screw a couple notches to put pressure on the drillbit. It works sort of like the table crossfeed on your shaper.

@Broken_Yugo Год назад

What I find interesting is it kind of hammers the bit down into the work one chip at a time rather than a continuous feed. I think this would probably give advantage when drilling steel with crappy carbon steel drills of the time, encourages a less than capable bit to dig in and make chips rather than rub and burn.

@silaskelly604 Год назад

I believe that is well done enough to qualify as Art.

@ellieprice363 Год назад

A very difficult job done with great skill and excellent camera work by Abby. My hats off to Adam for brazing those cracks successfully from both sides without the filler falling out.

@jerrylondon2388 Год назад

It's still cracked! He didn't test for cracks. It was a mediocre job, and we haven't seen part 2 yet! Fanboying doesn't make it better!

Always love to see cast iron repairs. Different jobs & different people call for different methods, but just the reputation it’s got for being tricky to repair always gets me interested. It’s another one of those jobs I’d love to get into, but just don’t have the time, not since I started rebuilding vintage magnetos & other old vehicle electrical components.

Thank you again for the work recording, editing and publishing your videos!

@DJ-bh1ju Год назад

Love the camera work up close... First time I've ever seen brazing. Looks a lot like soldering, which I've done a lot of, just a LOT hotter.

@eliduttman315 Год назад

Brazing IS very high temperature soldering. While quite hot, the base metal is not melted. In welding, the base metal is melted. The bronze alloys used in brazing are comparable in strength to cast iron, BUT the difference in cost between ferrous material (low) and cupric material (high) is SUBSTANTIAL.

a perfect example of the fact that no one ever had too many tools. experience and understanding what is needed good work. looks like you are having fun life.

@TheTsunamijuan Год назад

I would highly suggest looking at Instapack bags for these expensive parts. You do the mix procedure, put them in the area/box your trying to protect. Will save you a great deal of time packing, and when you choose the right densities, its hard to get wrong.

@PhilG999 Год назад

I love Brazing! At work one time many years ago the shipping guys knocked a Toledo scale off the counter shattering the cast iron cover on the base! The scale still worked fine but the boss asked if I could fix it. Must have been 20 or so pieces. Now fit them all back together. I got it done but it took a while! And @1:54 Forklift "Squirrels" really piss me off! They go running around full throttle like it's some kind of game instead of a job! I have two certs, regular and all-terrain, and I did NOT EVER try to rush the machine! My job was as an Engineer so I had to be certified for everything we used, from Bobcats to small Cranes! Just to move around the parts for things we were building! 😆😆

@anthonyvancampen6729 Год назад

Absolutely, the worst that I've ever had to deal with was a maritime satellite antenna assembly that got forked. It was on a beautiful skid and boxed with 1/2 or maybe 3/4 plywood. But at some point in shipment or storage at our site. There was a fork blade punched through the box that left a gouge in the gel coat and glass mat. We got a decent repair of the dome using a repair kit from West Marine, and with the dome in place, you can't see the repair. Honestly, after it was repaired I had trouble seeing the repair from 4'.
