Our new barrel for a Caterpillar D10 dozer blade lift cylinder is finished! In this part 3 and final video of making the new barrel we show the process of making the new end before fitting and welding it to the new barrel. We start with a solid piece of 4140 round bar and do some heavy turning in the lathe before drilling and boring out the ID. We also machine an internal radius on the inside of the new end. Then it’s over to the milling machine where we drill and tap a couple of bolt holes before turning the head of the mill 24° degrees to drill and bore the grease port. The work on the milling machine is completed with face cutting the step to give clearance for the drop valve. We then fit and weld on the new end to the barrel before giving it some final touches before a new coat of paint to complete the new barrel!

You do a spectacular job editing these. Speeding it up at the right time and going slow and explaining what’s going on at the right time; it’s a really good entertaining video and I really appreciate it. I have my guys at the shop watch this. Kurtis (sorry I’m sure I didn’t spell his name correctly) runs his stuff really clean and I think that’s underappreciated how clean the shop is. It’s important. It’s also important that every shop needs a shop dog and you highlight that perfectly.

Karen and Kurtiss, I don't have to tell you that Kurtiss is a true master machinist. This 3-part series really illustrated Kurtiss's knowledge, expertise and truly, an amazing and superior skill set. Kurtiss, you makes it look so easy where it's not quite so simple. Your customers are really fortunate to have you around. I especially enjoyed seeing the 24-degree angle cut of the oil port. Would you guys ever consider making an "interview" video where Karen asks Kurtiss to go into his story about how he got where he is today? Just an idea but Kurtiss seems to have a level of mastery that usually only comes to an older man. This is one of the amazing things that always keeps me watching. It's hard to get my head around how he knows so much and can do so much at his age. Maybe, it's no big deal and lots of machinists are in his league...but then again, I really don't think so. Thanks for a great series demonstrating the new honing machine and everything!

Knowing which filler wire and shielding gas to use with each type of base metal you're working on is a skill set all it's own. As a welder with 18 years experience, I have to tell you that I am beyond impressed. I dare say that the replacement parts you produce are probably better than factory. I loved this 3 part video and I'm learning a lot watching you. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Karen, and Homie boy. Cheers from the USA🇺🇸🦃

@gredangeo Год назад

I took welding as per requirement in school, and what I learned was, I don't want to touch it ever again. It's not something I'm good at. The course did make me understand welders and the patience they have though. Hard job. Welding is way too physical. I could have the knowledge and program a bot to do it. That would be fairly easy in comparison to anything by hand.

it's not hard when the OEM prices are inflated, compared to an organisation that size our overheads are extremely low and we can keep our costs down for our customers 👍

@TitoRigatoni 9 месяцев назад

yeah CAT's cost to make the part is probably less, but they've gotta make a profit so purchase price is likely 3-4 times manufacturing cost. Plus factor in shipping to AUS is likely quite high.

@samrodian919 Год назад

Kurtis, an idea for you. Decide where your logo is going to be stamped, machine the part, and before you assemble and weld, put said part on the hydraulic press and press in your stamp. It would be a good idea to set your stamp up in a block that can be fitted to the ram of the press at dead 90 degrees to get a firm, equal impression into the part, it will look even better mate!

Amazing attention to detail and quality as always. It's really great to see someone who takes pride in their work and has a genuine care for their customer. You are quite unique compared to most machinists because of your experience as an equipment operator, welder, and mechanic. There's nothing more frustrating than being in the field with a broken machine and getting a bad replacement part that either doesn't fit or function properly. Every thing that you have put together in your shop I would absolutely trust with my life. I wish we had more shops with people like you here in the U.S., it's almost impossible to find anyone here that does quality work anymore. We have become a throw-away society and have very few true tradesmen that can repair instead of replace those expensive parts. You are a blessing to your customers and your country keeping those yellow monsters running and productive.....Thank you all for another great video! Please always include the safety officer and those hilarious outtakes! Like you, I can repair or make almost anything, but put a camera in my face, and I can't talk for sh#%! The three of you make such a great team, already looking forward to the next video.

@samrodian919 Год назад

I totally agree with you. It's the same here in the UK, every "Technician" in industry these days are nothing better than a fitter. Especially in the automotive industry. Yes they can operate a computer which shows up X Y or Z is fucked then they go to the stores pick up a new part, remove said broken part and fit a new one. Very few main agents would even consider stripping a part and repairing it. It's cheaper to just swap with a new one and charge the exorbitant price for the O.EM part plus an exorbitant price for the labour. My local Land Rover dealer is charging £330 per hour for labour!

@darinwilson8663 Год назад

@@samrodian919 WOW, that's expensive, I can only imagine what it would cost to maintain heavy equipment there. We're in the logging and grading business and things have gotten to the point here that we do almost everything entirely "in-house" we even have our own machine shop and do our own welding and line boring. I work on equipment for several other grading companies and other logging operations on days that the weather prevents us from working. By doing this, I can justify the expense of all the extra tools, welding machines, and equipment needed to keep our own equipment running. The only problem with this is that I never get to rest or have any time off. It's sad to hear that you guys are having the same problems over there. It's a much different world now than what our parents and grandparents grew up in. I really worry about what the future has in store for our children due to the way things have been heading over the last several years. Watching the way that Kurtis and Karen operates that shop gives me hope that there's still people out there that actually give a damn about the quality of their work and they don't cut corners and do half assed repairs so the customer is constantly having to have the same thing fixed over and over again.

Exactly!

"PING!" Your bearings are ready! That was absolutely fascinating. 👍😁❤

@felixthecleaner8843 Год назад

awesome machining and filming - as usual! when you get the oppo could you give some info on the lathe cutting tools, bits, types, why's and wherefores etc.... thanks guys - this site is one of RU-vids hidden gems!

@CuttingEdgeEngineering Год назад

hey mate sure thing will put that on our video to do list!

@ManiacMitrandir Год назад

This is not a machining, this is a pure art!

@ElegantMessTechPC Год назад

I friggin' love the out-takes at the end, not only makes me laugh my ass off but reminds us that were all just people in the end 🙂

@nbrowser Год назад

When you know you made a good product...you not only stamp it but put a decal on it to ID it as your work. Kurtis, that barrel is a work of art to be honest.

@fullboostturbo1 Год назад

I was a boilermaker, and I used to take pride in my welds I can honestly say that Kurtis is on PAR lovely welds + lets not forget the superb machining skills the man has got.

@mikethomas5510 Год назад

That 2" drill is a beast. Never saw one before I found your channel

@simes888 Год назад

Really surprised to see it being used without a pilot drill wider than the chisel point though!

@alro2434 Год назад

@@simes888 Me Too, but he always does it and I don't know why, and it always seems to drill just fine with a normal tip that doesn't have its web thinned down. Lotta pressure & soft material?

@dutchgray86 Год назад

You don't need to pilot or use thinned web drills if the machine you are using to drill has the power and rigidity to push the drill through the material you are cutting, most of us never get our hands on such machines.

@russbentley7677 Год назад

A lathe and its cutting bits demonstrate so well just how malleable hard steel is, even tho it looks and feels so solid and impenetratable.

@ibTeeMac Год назад

I love the line of trophy fails at the beginning. After the day I had today a good bit of soothing lath work was exactly what the Dr. ordered. The look on Homeless's face whrn he saw that pigs ear. Gold... Thnx again from Vancouver Island. Cheers

That wall needs a plaque "Wall of Pain & Shame" 😂 Homey enjoyed his treat. Hope you had nice Thanksgiving if you celebrate it

Setting up on the milling machine is quickly turning into an ASMR video lol Really impressive work again, love watching these videos!!

The exchange fleet sounds like an awesome idea! Quicker turn around for the customer and less of a time crunch on you.

@jtg2737 Год назад

Another nice job! Hell, I don't even have to watch how the workmanship is going to pan out but I do just for concepts that I have never thought of before. Hello from TEXAS!

@PCguy650 Год назад

We received our HTA-4100 in March this year and ran a CAT 6030 barrel assembly for a few days to hone 2.8mm out of the bore and definitely noticed a 0.8mm or so drift from the concentric. Quicker hones on smaller bores, especially with just 1 extension rod, we didn't notice anything. Just something to look out for on the much longer hones I guess. We just finished off our 2nd CAT 6030 barrel and rotated 90 degrees every couple of hours and the issue was resolved.

@CuttingEdgeEngineering Год назад

Hey mate good to know thanks for sharing that!

@billybike57 Год назад

@gavindebree9011 Год назад

I stumbled onto your videos a few months ago and I can not stop watching them. Amazing welding and fabricating skills on another level. Some of your Technics have helped me in my own shop. Truly amazing work. Also that video editing and seamless transitions are awesome Kudos to the editor. Keep up the amazing work.

When a person can take a rudimentary piece of material and through their skill, talent, knowledge, and most of all their experience turning into something beautiful that confirms just how skillful this person is. Again Job very Well Done.

Curtis does some awesome work. Jack of all trades. There is nothing he can't do. I love the content

@blermule8692 Год назад

Great work from you Kurtis! I get really sick myself when I have to miss a thread on workpieces that have already undergone several work steps! If a thread cutter breaks off, that's usually the case! On top of that, the workpieces are also very urgent because the customer is usually already waiting for them. Greetings from Bocholt Germany

@jarnosaarinen4583 Год назад

@glengullickson6538 11 месяцев назад

Customers come to you for your knowledge and the fact you have to tools to complete these difficult jobs. It is amazing that you also just happen to have a replacement/exchange D10 cylinder in stock! KA-CHING!😁

@DrewBe59635 Год назад

That's right. Take pride in your craftmanship. The stamp and sticker made me smile.

I really do enjoy the technical qualities of your videos, seeing how you solve various challenges in manufacturing these components, really these are great, and I look forward to them, but… … the silly joy I get from the blooper reel and out takes at the end is the quintessential cherry on top! You guys are so real in your interactions it is fun to watch. Thank you both. Cheers from Tokyo, Stu

I LOVE your exchange system! It's wonderful that you keep things cooking like this instead of just condemning customers to having to discard things that could be repaired and wait for an OEM one!
