DIY BACKHOE / Excavator part: 1 BUILDING the BASE 

This was awesome Viny! Can’t wait to see it when it’s all done. You do outstanding work!

Impressive as always and thanks for the laughs Viny! Most under rated channel on the RU-vid along with Ed Gasket.

hell yeah

It’s funny that I found your channel when I was pondering about maybe making a grass catcher for my lawnmower (which I never did), soon I subscribed and have been hooked ever since, pretty smart dude for a French-talking’ Canadian 😂

You are an amazing engineer 1000% but please watch some MIG welding tutorial. You are laying cold slugs with mig push forward to create full fusion and get fullpenation penitration . respect to you 👍👍👍👍

I have been waiting for this one!! Here for the jokes and technical stuff!! 😂

Really good video. Fireball tool have a good video comparing welding table

Mechante belle job! C'est nice voir toute les pieces fitter ensemble comme un gros jeu de légo!

Love the jokes and techy stuff! Excellent work!

Fantastic work Viny, thanks for the friday afternoon video. Looping forward for the next videos.

Hello from the Netherlands. thanks for the video Viny . Sincerely Hollandduck

Lache pas ! Toujours de beau projets bien fait !

Viny! Thanks for the shout out. I love this build series, I can't wait for the next episode. Have you posted a link to the digital angle finder you use? I want to get one.

you could always freeze the tools used to install the bushings too or carry them in a foam cup. Not sure if you did this too but you could heat up more of the structure where the bushings go since all your heat will soak into the metal by conduction faster than it will dissipate via radiation/convection to ambient.

He'll yes been waiting for this series it gonna be badass

Awesome work man. I love watching your videos! You and Colin Furze are my favorite. Keep it up and you will grow into a huge channel!

For welding over 1/4” plate switching from mig to dual shield (FCAW) would be a much easier process that is not prone to the issues with solid wire (lack of penetration). Or you could use pulse mig with a different gas combo assuming your machine has pulse capability. Cool build.

Subscribed. This is awesome.

This is just an amazing project, everything I would love to do and am capable of doing, but unless lotto happens this old nurse will just have to live vicariously

😂😂😂😂😂😂 great video man always a good time 💯👍

Nice work ❤

So just wow😮 Nice job 👍

Awesom, Vinny

Awesome job with the video and build!!

Love the jokes and build!!

bushing install was Perfect!! lol.

Save your old broken end-mills. They make great dowel pins, drill centers, & tooling for the lathe when ground down. Saved me a bunch of $$ on buying tooling that i'd only use once!

Как всегда великолепно и интересно! Продолжайте в том же духе.

Spotted the cylinders from Princess Auto, and I know I'm in the right place to watch a build. Wishing you luck from the other side of the country. :)

Hey Viny, I really love that Fireball tooling but to expensive for me. I hope you will make that welding table and have plans available. Cheers :)

Phil vandaley built one of those welding fixture tables on his channel and Jeremy schmitt built one on his channel both very good for reference viny

While you're hammering in the Bushings the part jumps around the table and generally all the elasticity in the part absorbs a lot of energy from the blow by dampening it. A good way to mitigate that is holding a big sledgehammer on the other side of the object or in this case the housing for the bushing. Kind of works like an anvil then. The main downside is you need a second person, but your wife was there anyways. The far better solution would be to use a press or make a gear puller work. But the sledgehammer trick gets you a long ways.

Оо привет. Как же круто что я попал на ваш канал. Хорошее видео. 👍👍👍

Great content and fantastic videography. But I would look for a new laser cutting supplier. The finish on those parts was more comparable to a decent plasma cut part than what I would expect from laser. Other than that great content all around.

Super video. Pour la table de production d'assemblage verifie avec maker table. Ils ont des plans de dispo pour t'en fabriqué une sur mesure!

I purchased a laser cut welding table kit 2 feet by 4 feet, on casters. It is a good fit for my two car garage set up. Kinda light duty I believe it was rated to hold 800pounds or 1000 pounds. I bolted a 4 inch vice to the top( not even mass for a larger vice) i think it was 2" on center hole spacing with 5/8" holes in the 1/4" plate used for the top. The grid underneath the top reduces weight and adds strength, but sometimes land right where you need a clamp 🗜️. A thicker top plate would probably work better, especially wicking the heat from parts and resisting bending forces from your clamps holding it down to the table. Magnetic drill and go to town... 3"-4" hole centers are fine in most cases. As for flattening top, flame straightening or torch.

I think you may consider buying one of fireball tools table because, if you don't have proper tool to make the table, your weldings or the parts you will produced on won't be consistent or straight.

You should make a tractor attachment for a forklift

👍👍👍

Time for some dry ice next time

Excellent video bro, ...what is the name of the 3D software you used before you sent the design parts to Conceptromec?

what kind of program did you use to design the backhoe? some kind of cad or cam? i know nothing about that kind of stuff but wanting to learn

Fireball tools have a decent video on the process he went through for making his welding table since he wasn't happy with what he could find. might be informative

challenge It just so happens that you can also build a rotor and tilt to the backhoe. Being able to rotate the bucket. Being able to angle the bucket. If you make one like that, my hotmail will ring and I will buy the drawing. Electric ore hydraulic 🤔 Its so easy to buy a drawing and DXF and its almost done..

Hi there, I know Snowball engineering a UK channel built a welding table for his shop, maybe worth a view

tu as utilisé quel programme pour le dessin??

Darn Canadians....😉... Yes that was cheating- you always cut your own metal......are you getting old...No muscles in your manbobs any more 🤔🤔🤔🤪.... No, sorry- looking really good, as I told you before - IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CANT MAKE? Great job- and 55000 subscribers - you getting closer to the plack...and a question my dear friend - is it still as fun to do this, if you think back... When I started following you, you had 1500 followers - and now 55000- its about a little bigger town in Sweden - witch are following your work.... Good job VinyB 😉

Bonjour vous parlez français demeurez-vous au Québec dans le Canada ?

??Were is a smart

Hey Viny, love all your projects and no, I'm not only here for the d* jokes 🙂😂!!

Here as always for the amazing ideas/work but also for the dick jokes

Your english is pretty good. Personally i like the live action audio better than the post production voice over. Thanks for the awesome content buddy

Another great video Viny! Shame, not one dick joke though. 😂

On est pas là pour les blagues, on est pas comme ça. Enfin je suis déçu, j'ai pas vu de bite (bisoune?) sur tes plans. Super construction, bravo !

So if I got this straight, you copied other backhoe designs had the parts fabricated by someone else and you welded them together. I think it'd be cheaper just to buy a used backhoe attachment

Dude thinks people will buy his plans to make their own…. He made a massive mistake in this project. Overestimating his audiences’ intelligence. Sometimes really, really smart people don’t know how smart they are and they think they’re normal. 😂
