LIVE!? - Welding Bandsaw Blades & Startrite Saw

"*Rode* in on"

Support STFU athletics! Go Noobs!

I got my BS at STFU.

Alex French Guy Cooking you here aswel lol i never expected to see a professional onion cuter and metal cutter on the same page

sometimes he starts explaining a cavet and then i realize how i can use that is my daily work flow. grant it i not a cnc jedi master like tony, but rather the jar jar binks from the macguyver school of engineering. keep the good works tony u2 alex.

For sure mate! Funny story... I watch your videos because of TOT making the pasta maker for you!

Honestly I can't believe how creative your channel is, you're like the French version of Alton Brown for me.

Many thanks, Alex, for sending me to This Old Tony. I would never have found him without you. And thanks for the great content, good food, interesting builds, sense of humor, problem solving and video editing on your channel, too. I can see why you and TOT wanted to collaborate.

Tony made me laugh when he edited in the "subscribe" to the band-saw settings, and LOL at the (ancient) ASBESTOS setting on the dial. But the calm set-up with the V-Block and Blue Sharpie and then seeing the blade come around with ink on the opposite side and then the WORD: Möbius was LMAOROTFL, and more when Tony showed the completed metal Escher image. BRAVO TONY !!!

Tig weld then anneal the weld

agree. f you want however some more, check out "ave". he is fun as well.

The trouble with Mobius bandsaw blades is that half the time they are cutting back into the guides.

so he didn't have you until the very end of the video?

When I tried that saw trick at the end, my clock started running backwards. I'm not sure what that meant.

Jay Zenitram It means that you were thinking about Grace Hopper while making the Möbius strip.

Greg Dent so did I!

me too!

I think that actually counts as a phone these days

Greg Dent me too!

He did @11.42

thisnicklldo I tried Giger and Beksinski blades in the past. Do great at cutting through existential angst. I'm still getting ptsd flashbacks.

Escher was Dutch

Cut with a Schröedinger once, dropped and lost the final piece and I never knew if it was actually cut. Next I'll try Occam's razor; it's said to most probably do a easy job.

After 30 years of working on large bandsaws in saw mills, it still amazes me that welds in 13" wide and 40 to 50 foot long bands can run with welded teeth and cracks for 10 to 12 hours and still hold. That"s not a normal run but it happens. The best saws are from Udaholm in Sweden.

Phil Vandelay that comment made me check out your channel... love it! you need more subscribers!

Just Subbed!

I think easiest way to weld this is use those purpose designed resistance welder, I tried gas welding and while I only welded training sections (used a broken and too short bimetal blade for this) I have mixed success, and it's very skill intensive since there's a very fine line between a good joint and melting holes through it. I found it better to just get barely a puddle on it, and join both sides than to try and melt the blade all the way through to join it. It also helps to melt the blade a little more, and push the joint together to weld it. However you'll have to anneal it good and it won't be as strong as the unwelded saw body itself. Seems success in welding bandsaw blade is mixed with TIG, MIG, or even stick (has anyone tried to stick weld bandsaw blades?) It sounds like a good thing to put on a welder resume, "successfully welded bandsaw blades with an oxyacetylene torch". I mean if you can weld this you can weld anything. For carbon steel seems better to braze it, but bimetal won't take braze alloys at all (it snaps clean off).

That explains the strange behaviour. Buyer showed up in a black ski mask and one of those voice changer boxes. I didn't say anything at the time, figured it was just their European flair. ;)

Black market shapers. Really? Why is that Stefan?

What if I just used cast iron?

I'd love to see someone make a solid carbide guide with the side guides ported for coolant so it forms a hydrodynamic bearing.

@@snaplash Yeah, quadrapoles are nice and all, but they don't quite give the saw that relativistic speed needed for time travel. A strong parallel electric field eliminates the need for a motor in your saw.

Really it was just the Sharpy bleeding through... probably over did the annealing.

Explains the variance in cutting speed.

Thanks Alec!

@Dann isNot A man but a deepfake 1 what is wrong with you?

Carson McMahon: The biggest benefit of a "Mobius Bandsaw" TM, Is it doubles the blade's lifetime because it has to go around twice to get back to its starting orientation! 😏😉😜😎

Also, as it has only one side and one edge, construction is greatly simplified and it used far less material...

Carson McMahon : Good point! However, heat treating and final sharpening take twice as long. 😉😜😎

Carson McMahon Mobius was that black guy in the Matrix? ;-)

FXM or just tie a little knot

nyloc nuts or a spring washer do wonders ;)

You guys make things so difficult. Superclue and activator are all you need and you're back up and running in under 30 seconds. You bunch of amateurs!

Just slip a cotter pin through there. Or an old keyring. #lifehacks

FXM Put both ends through a growler and magnetize. Presto! Easy assembly & disassembly for all applications forever. 🤔🙄

glad to see some one else saw that

If only the Alcubierre drive was confirmed possible. We just havent found a way to satisfy the negative mass requirement of the Alcubierre drive yet

I think Tony got that technique from Chuck Norris

Ah you see, this is a common misconception. Snaprifting is not a cutting process, because the space-acoustic-wave created by the snap creates a miniscule rift in the crystalline interconnection of the workpiece, momentarily tearing a rift in the material. Since the rift is not filled with air, it is practically a vacuum, and ambient air is forced into the rift, pushing it apart. That's why the technique cuts almost in a perfect plane perpendicular to Ampere's right-hand rule normal vector.

for curves!

Assuming... One must be very careful in the direction that one Snaprifts!!!!!

Who says he needed it? Want is enough justification. 🤣

Travis J I Corcoran Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son.

Every time I open my mouth and try to teach the kids about life's lessons, I am reminded by them where I got my diploma! STFU! Scientific &Technical Functions University.... but how T F do they know?

Apologies, but I liked your comment so much that I ruined the fact it had 69 likes.

I understand all of that except for the "twist them together" part. What do you mean?

Or cuttlefish

I hear there's an app for that. It's like tinder for stationary tools.

I wonder why there was an app called Grindr ... I'll get my coat ...

A Mobius bit mi sister once. It was pretti nasti.

come on mate realy 😂

I tried a Mobius strip joint once. I still don't like to talk about it.

He was rather klein though :)

thanks Patrik!

thanks!

oooh the value of putting a smile on my face. I need a tony of my own in my garage.

Great spot mate. I catch them normally but this one was a bit tough.

Good catch! I completely missed that one.

I CANT FIND IT

His video editing is really good

Square endmills!

I’m subscribing with 4 accounts 🤭 One personal the others for work

The cutting speeds for subscribe seem off to me.

Looks like you blew a seal...

good to know, thanks RC!

My offer to donate gold and diamonds to the play buckles cause still stands.

My wife's uncle has one of those blade welders. It hold the 2 ends tightly together and I think it runs an arc through them. It then pushes the ends together to make a bead. He then grinds them flat.

high carbon pre iron content except for iron wood. Terrible stuff to get decent weld penetration on it tho.:-)

Organic. It's a real pain to weld too.
