The law of Diminishing Returns should never be forgotten. When I am close enough if I go for that little bit better it always gets worse. And thank you for the compliments, you have made an old man happy.
Ah Grasshopper the crank Master learnt something from the apprentice!!!!.....those ball joint splitters are an indispensable multi use tool in the workshop, have been using and abusing mine for over 30 years, ball joints, bearing removal, Transit van brake disc removal,Bantam crank rebuilds etc etc its like the Swiss army knife of drifts😊
Great detail in presentation again. I wouldn't have touched that crank either and for exactly the reasons you said........1 touch and 3 hours chasing it!
Hi Dean thanks for another brilliant video. Just to let you know you're not alone I have a 40 year old son with learning disabilities and autism and he is in the pre teens mind set or even younger .He also suffers wirh Bi-polar. All you can do is be there for them and keep smiling.Best wishes Mike
another brilliant informative video of crank building Thanks Dean a friend of mine might want your service as his D7 crank is worn ' .I'm sure your Son is in the best hands with your family , we all take folk for granted at times but when the times are hard we pull together 'well I did with my health scare a few months back my wife and both son's made me feel brilliant even when I had my doubts I would make it .
@@alanbrown1563 I'm glad you are on the up Alan. Even better, you have a Bantam to get you into mischief this summer! I'm a bit booked up at the moment, but if he emails me I can let him know when I am a bit more free. Best wishes, Dean.
You are so right Dean, something strange when both of us are working on cranks at the same time. Great job my friend, I am jealous of your no popping press. Smooth as glass. Nice work buddy.
@@alanmoore9896 Alan, yes it would be feasible. The area around the crankpin would be the most unruly I think, there is quite a step. My thinking is that rather than decrease the crankcase volume, it is better increased for a greater charge, relying on port design and a properly designed expansion chamber for efficient transfer. This was Kaden's vision and he was widely plagiarized once his secret was out. Best wishes, Dean.
@@xfire7 thank you. There was no drawing, I just measured up and went for it. If you look back in the videos, you can see what I used to make it. Best wishes, Dean.
@@cainbeeping8480 nothing at all Cain! There seemed to be an error on the upload this end so I pulled it and re-uploaded the same video. Thanks for watching, Dean.
