I paid about $80 for the Lithium Rebar Cutter, The motor and the plastic nut are broken，There is no battery for the cutter‘s socket，So I repaired it with a cheap brushless impact wrench.
I was gonna say "just buy a replacement, would be way cheaper than this full rebuild and turning and all that," but then I googled how much a cordless rebar cutter costs. Holy cow good job!
Tbh I'm quite impressed with how well that lil cheap motor handled powering the hydraulic pump to get thru that big ol' piece of rebar at the end. Like that's just impressive that it managed to get thru that.
I’ve used a little hex impact drill like that in a pinch to take lugnuts off.. powering a little hydraulic pump should be easy, on top of being brushed to brushless upgrade
Well done, it looks like it came that way. I think you made a good decision to not open the hydraulic pump as they can be a nightmare to reassemble and the fluid was clean. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
I'm new to your channel, and I'm instantly hooked! The previous videos I've watched have been great, I've been inspired, with your help, step by step I've fixed a few of my old tools, I'm on top of the world, full of confidence, by watching you, I can do it too!! Until now, McGyver and the A Team have nothing on you!! Absolutely Brilliant 👏 👌
Очень хорошо..Я часто смотрю твои видео и сам люблю что то востановить,отремонтировать или переделать..Мне нравится смотреть как ты востанавливаешь инструмент. Привет из России
Amazing to watch and amazing skill. But couldn't help but feel making a mount for the smaller motor in the original housing would be so much more efficient 😂
Another fantastic restoration. The modification of the modern power source to fit the restored unit to include the machining of the transition section is next level craftsmanship.
When the budget jumps into hundreds of thousands the consumer tool market falls short of what the industrial trades have. Decking gun that drive finger sized "nails" into thick steel beams. Portable hydraulic benders for pipe or re-bar. Some job sites won't let you make a spark so no friction cutting tools. Hilti has made hi-torque battery powered impact guns and grinders for years before milwaukee even thought about it.
I confess I had my doubts but that turned out damn impressive! BTW: i assume you did but change the gear oil. Preferably with synthetic. I'm certain it oil requirements will be in the owners manual on line! Also stir a magnet through the oil to see if its shedding metal.
Is it just me or those sounds while sanding the aluminium @ 12:51 these sounded like the ray gun Toy I had when I was a kid wow the early 90s where a blast for me, other than that fantastic video, from a metal worker point of view - very little planning from what I could see but over all I'm very impressed
Kalau bisa di perjual belikan akan lebih ada manfaat nya dan berguna lagi dan harga di sesuai kan dengan harga pokok... Mungkin ini yang dinamakan ide jenius ada nilai tambah dari barang yang sudah jadi di tambah pemikiran yang baik 👍
Seems like a lot of effort to repair something that you could probably just buy new for the same cost you repaired it for but yeah, ik you were doing it so you can improve your own skills and make a good video and it turned out well, good job :)
Use a centering bit on lathe! it will make your life a lot easier ! good job tho. i was curious about that small motor having enough torque to cut that!
So how do I watch a video like this with a simple fact that these no talking like please explain to us what in the world you're doing damn tool like please makes it so much more interesting that way
I wonder, why didn't you simply take longer screws and screw all the way from black flange to the blue plastic? Seems the hole pattern is similiar enouch that it would be possible.
You should have covered the magnetic core with tape, It is hard to clean the metal shavings. Also for machining the contour of the aluminum piece, you could have mounted the drill with the cutting rotating bit against the lathe and turn the lathe head by hand for the three 120 degree portions to machine that lip.
I was very surprised he didn’t use the lathe to contour that piece. He still did a good job but I figured the lathe would have been the machine for the job rather than a dremel
