Good evening Sir, nothing is greater that to see a great welder doing Arc Welding ( Stick/Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) ) with an welding engine👍😉 Great fabrication built Sir 👍😊A little grease on the pins and Yes it Is great success and much stronger than on the market 👍😊 Great aircraft sounds !!! 😊😂 Great fabrication video Sir 👍Have a great Sunday Sir Cheers 👍
thank you I do enjoy fabricating I only wish I was strong as I use to be to get more done. took me a few days on this project. the heat got to me. be safe and enjoy your week.
How's she goin'? That's a nice Quick Attach!!! You are talking about the strength of the steel. I think with the tolerances you used, with the tight fit, it will last a good long time. It's not like you will be using the hoe commercially. Another good thing, if it does fail, you have the ability to make repairs or redesign and make it better!!! Making tools and equipment is way more fulfilling than buying in my opinion!!! Thanks for sharing and take care!!
I agree 100% it is more fulfilling to make these things we need ourselves. so far it is holding up great. ripped out a few trees ans stumps. blew a hydraulic hose but the quick attach is still holding up well.
how the hell you can handle that table rocking back and forth i beyond me. i was screaming at the screen "FIX THAT DAMN TABLE DAVE" LMAO. that drove me nuts.i almost fell out of my chair because i almost fell asleep from all that rocking lmfaorotf
That saddens me. What are they protesting. You don't settle violence by using violence. We need to honor and support our Police Force. When that fails, then i think the President has every right to bring in our Military. I Pray it all gets settled. First off we need to take care of the corruption in the Government, that would solve most of problems. We need God on our side to do this. If we don't I'm afraid America will fall. We need to get right with the Lord and get out and vote. It all starts by taking the trash out of politics.
Great work, Dave! I’ll bet your bucket quick connect it better that the BXpanded ones. I’ve had two of theirs break on me. Your’s is made of half inch steel compared to the 3/8” they use. Looking forward to seeing you try it out! Thanks for sharing!
Fingers crossed! lol so far its holding great I been digging stumps some large but mostly small ones. pushing over a few trees as well. I finally got my trencher bucket from BXPANDED and the pin does not line up so I had to make a new pin. looks like they could configure these to all be the same or ask for more information if they are custom building these buckets.
Nice job Dave! It came out really good for the very first one you've made! I can't wait to see how you like it after using it on a project! Have a good weekend and hope you had a great Fourth!!
thanks so far it is holding up well. I hope it works with my new bucket I ordered from BXPANDED. I hope that bucket comes soon I ordered it about 6 weeks ago. maybe it will come this week I hope.
That's the plan! lol actually ordered a new bucket for trenching. I also been thinking about building a vibrating plate compactor to mount where the bucket goes. we shall see.
Hey there pardner, you is my kinda man. I liked this video. That was great camera work. Could you tell me what kind of camera you have? You mentioned a metal-cutting hole saw, but I didn't see it. Also, I have not used a backhoe but one time, and I didn't have to mess with changing the bucket. What I don't understand is what big advantage there is to a quick connect? You have to let the bucket down to take the pressure off of the pins, so how much harder is it to remove two pins, instead of just one? What am I missing here?
I showed the hole saw in a previous video its called an angular flute hole saw. the camera used in this video were apeman action cams with zoom audio recorders for the audio part. then sync them together in adobe. these cameras are very cheap to buy. they are simply 1080p not 4k. as for the advantage in mounting the bucket with the quick attach that is a great question and one that I plan to go over in an upcoming short video so hopefully you will stay tuned for that. once you see it I think you will have of oh yeah moment. of course if all you have is one bucket then you sure dont need one. also you can definitely get by with out one if you chose to.
mine leaked down to just blew a hose on the stabilizer and I can tell you changing those hoses were pure HELL! I plan to change the other two hoses as well so I built a special wrench to see it that helps. wont know till the hose comes in. normally I use a bungee, rope or chain to tie the two stabilizers together so they dont leak down on the trailer. however mine really never leak down very far.
Real nice build, Dave! Save your outrage about current events and just keep on trucking...coz soft times make soft men and that's where we're at right now. Ain't that welding table from harbor freight great?!! Love mine.
Right on! yes this harbor freight welding table is great! it was very reasonable to for what it is. makes tig welding small items a lot more comfortable as well.
yeah that will help if I put some case hardening powder on it. being just hot rolled steel it wont harden much just heating and quenching with out adding some case hardening powder.
why would some one want to build a bucket or quick connect these days, every equipment salvage yard is full of buckets and parts from burnt or sunk machines, you can buy a 24" wide bucket for that brand for $100 cnd, there so many of them around. there yards are hundreds of feet long and 30 feet deep of buckets lined up, even look at a video dirt boss did on a yard loaded with buckets
I dont see any salvage yards near me for this type of equipment. however sometimes its just being able to say "yes I built that bucket" a person with NO skills may not understand that. or a person who simply does not care to make their own may not understand that. if I had a salvage yard near me that has equipment like this I would sure be there looking at least once a month for stuff. with that said I'm located in Virginia near Richmond the capital of Virginia so if you know of one near me or can find one near me by all means sends me the address. most all the stuff around here goes to auction and is sold at premium prices even when its complete junk. I will wait for that address.
@@daveknowshow thats to bad you dont have one near you... i see them here all over Canada. in fact i have a yard between me and the city. of Thunder by. `/2 hour drive, yes i know some dont under stand want one gets out of making things as a welder mfg all my life i have built thousands of things in my time, but today some things just not cost effective when there is a surplus. i keep an eye out, i know there are 3 or 4 in Colorado
I am with you buddy , on the frustration of this country and what is happening. I have also came to the conclusion that there is nothing a old physically worthless man can do. So many time I wake up and have to think, is this really happening or did I just have a bad dream. I guess it shows what thousands of sheepel along with the help of the media, can destroy ? The brain is a terrible thing to waste.
@@daveknowshow , Now Dave, I know how you feel, but you just stay put and make videos. No use of you getting hurt over something you can not stop. No cure for stupid, like them, short of full auto !
the pin designs and positions for removing or moving one in place are a real pain in the ass. those engineers really screwed up on this design. Not to mention the lubing of all the springs, pins and bushings to keep the unit running smooth. esp the forward/reverse petal. keep it clean and oiled. my L3400 has been a champ for 13 yrs.
