BIG BENT BUCKET ! weld and line bore in our engineering machine shop 

I was on a carpet job and the lady gave me a one inch bore 1800 naval cannon used for launching yacht races. It weighs about 50 pounds,😊

Thank you Alistair. That old bucket is like me floppy joints. Twenty years of carpet installing😂😂😂

I watch these as if it's great action movies, but they are even better, this is the real McCoy, methodology unlimited, and I'm the wiser for it, hopefully.

Hi allistair, good video ! Could you do a video on all the machines in the workshop and how they set them up on big jobs like this . How do you keep your welding torch cool on those big welding jobs ? Also some details on your welder and wire type . Do a lot of similar work myself ,nice to see other peoples methods.

I was amazed by the amount of magnets TIP LIMPETS 😂

Watching this the second time. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. They're just rare enough to keep my interest. As a machinist I'm super interested in how your father came to acquire such a well rounded shop with such huge machines. Just don't change the music! I look forward to being able to drive to the tunes.

It is always interesting, thank you.

Really appreciate what you bring to the Video Allistair!! You aren't afraid to delve right in to something most fab shops would turn away. My hat is off to you Sir - Keep 'em coming!!!

You don't have to make me happy Alllister, However you keep putting up cool repair jobs, I will keep watching them. We are of the same mind when it comes to this stuff!

Love your 1.2.3. blocks😁

Nice shooting with the gouger.

Did a couple of water wells for one of the Mohawk casinos so now every time we go there we get special treatment. Made some damn good memories with my gramp there.

Don't you love the small jobs😮

Great job. That's one big arse line boring machine

I used to work in heat treating (01-07) here in the US. We did guvment contractor work so after some lab testing destructive/semi destructive, they’d scrape the parts. I made a clock from a warped trashed side of Ma deuce. We also had a discount from Ontario Knife who made bayonets and bent pry bars (that we could straiten) got scrapped.

Fantastic work

MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……….Again! LOL! I thought for a minute that maybe there was a glitch in the matrix!!!

Full of the usual skill and a peek at the big mill. Cheers

I feel like I'm watching an 80's sci fi movie when i hear your music

I always enjoy your engineering and welding vidz...keep 'em coming... cheerz from Hobart Tasmania...

just watched this I thought.......worth watching one more time.....Bravo

Good to see boss man up and at it. Cheers J

Always pleased to see a notification from your channel ✊

Couldn't quite make out the mfg of that very large "bed mill", and it might have a proper name. I imagine the concrete foundation for that machine is about five or six feet deep. As someone else said below, a tour of all of the machines in the shop would be very interesting to me.

Nice job Allistair! Always interesting videos from you. Keep up the good content.

That Boring Mill is Huge...Great Vid👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

👍 always enjoy your video and respect your work a ton! Thanks for sharing my friend.

Love these videos, keep them coming 👍👍

Keep the great vids coming 👍

Keep the music it's excellent adds to the video Keep up the excellent work

Watching it again as well some work in it 👍

Great video young man. Makes the bucket's I have repaired look like ones off a toy!

Thanks again! I don't know why I love metal and welding so much, but I do.

Great job, repair is kinda olds school art.

Wandered if you'd consider doing a walk around of the workshops showing the machines you all use. How many of your work there?

As a huge fan, I am curious as to why no stick welding. Either way freakin love your content and appreciate you, Rig welder and CWI here just curious! Keep making awesome videos !!! Thank you Allistarc

Allistair, always great and motivating video....getting ready to go to the shop and do some aluminum welding.....best wishes from the US, Paul, give some money to your dear uncle Drew.....was great seeing him bore holes in drill bits and having your Dad there too......cheers, Paul

Cool video sir!

Job well done👍 Videos are super interesting…..getting to see how things get done🙂

Maybe not that exciting, but definitely interesting. My favorite videos of yours are the ones with endless welding. very mesmerizing LOL

Man, time for a magnet horde.

Definitely cool 😎, work sucks but every now and then a little ray of sunshine.

You vids are brilliant in that they’re always huge jobs and you do them without fuss and expertise - it’s really an incredible learning experience - on a different not - do you realise one of your most valuable tools is that poor school chair lol

Could you use a ground clamp that only touched the sacrificial metal?😊

Deja vu bucket.

Brilliant video. Keep up the good work. Up the honda c90s

Wicked videos awesome content would love to spend time in your workshop never a doll moment lush

Been given vintage manuals, old tools (spanners ,taps and dies sort)..... oh ie a pre ww2 tractor , dont think told you about that 😉🤣

I'd never seen a tipping bucket till I went to work for a landscaping/raw materials mob (in Oz)... Fitted to a loader close to as Old as i, and compared to this monster, it was a teaspoon... Made of butcher paper... 2 cu.m, and the frame would be comparable to match sticks... Interesting to see a heavy duty one needing some loving... Nice work...

Hi Alistair, I was wondering just how you were going to keep those bushings in line. I guess that it pays to have a suitable length of pin sized round bar on hand to make the alignment easier! I didn't say easy because we all know that fixing shit is never easy, just a little less hard at times. Hope you are keeping well. Mark from Melbourne Australia

Your welding repair videos are so great! Give us more! I wonder if you should have different channels for welding, tractors, 4 wheeling, and models? Just a thought.

👍

Decent sized mill....

When employed at the landfill those magnets were my favorite. DAMN powerful and better than those in the store at that time.

Early on our @ Calavar/Condor boss over weld and fab buildings would save any incidental copper & brass scrap, and I would enjoy home cooked Barbacoa and fixings for Christmas. Also late summer brought the company picnic lunch with awards and BBQ meals All These perks dwindled to naught when the sister corp. took over🤨

❤❤

Working as a maintenance contractor in bottling and packing plants. Nearly always get a van load of miss labeled stuff.

You could become the magnet man if you get a few buckets like that

Once repaired a truck for a beer distributor, when they came to pick up the truck they brought two cases of beer as a thank you

Lovely video it would be great if you could put a clock on the video to show just how long these jobs take

Melihat anda mengelas. . Seperti melihat diri saya sendiri sedang melakukannya . . 🧑‍🏭🤩👍👍👍

🐶👍

I used to work for a local trucking company as a mechanic and they drove loads for a local brewery. Sometimes a load would expire by accident in the trailer so they would just let us have all the expired beer in the 53' trailer. The party's we had those years where great

Lay down cylinders on a high tip bucket are terrible! We had one out of 3 like that and waited much too long to convert it to a laid back style

keep the magnets and sell them at truck shows. 😉

That is called American BBQ 😅

Do you use plasma gouging as well as carbon arc?

Have you ever fixed stuff for a brothel...?

Hi Alistair why is the large milling machine let into the floor like that? It looks like a difficult job to set that machine up from scratch!

I'd take the sewage covered stuff over slaughter/ knacker any day of the week. Been there, done it ,got the (smelly) teeshirt.

Hello A nice comparaison could be the Liebherr r9800 vs O&K RH 400 (1-50) In your youtube vidéo

Is it your company

Re-upload?

Where do you find the music?

Toro 50-70t kauha 14kuutioo

10:11 was hoping you'd put on some safety glasses in case kids are watching

Could be worse could be magnets and maggots . No sissy Mary's allowed in this trade!

Ullrich buckets are shit the pins are too small last one we done we increased the pin diameter

WOW! That is some Grade "A" neglect. Can't wrap my head around how owners don't PMS and inspect their equipment. They just work their money makers till they break. No Love at all !!!!! Machinery abuse at it's finest. 😥😥Wright know I've been having to weld new barges together in Il. U.S. wishing I could do repair welding arund here ASAP! but not much here. More like break it replace it.

Not another Aussi channel.

Nice work. But that background music is really annoying. I don't think you need it, the video imagery is enough.
