Gday, This video I make new pins a bushes for a Yammer Excavator, this machine belongs to a good mate of Trents, I really hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching, Cheers
Good onya Matty, for helping out the young bloke. 👏👏 First year apprentices don’t earn a lot, so your generosity is doubly valuable. Thanks for sharing mate 👍 Regards Robert
Gday Robert, Zach is a top young bloke that’s keen to work and work hard, My oldest boy Trent and Zach left school and started there apprenticeships on the same day, there both doing really good, thanks for watching and commenting mate, Cheers
Good job solving the problems on how to with what you have. What cured me as a young man being hard on equipment is when I had to fix it or trade work to have someone like you help me fix it . They would not take money and made me work it off. Great video can't wait for part 2.
Geez Matty, Kurtis asks you make some parts for his Hydroptic, and a week later you start to venture into his territory repairing heavy equipment. Lol .. j/k (ok .. maybe not so heavy) Good on you helping the young fellow out. Very well done video too. 👍
Gday, it’s was funny it all happened at the same time, I do t think Kurtis has anything to worry about mate🤣, what I do in a week Kurtis does in a day, thanks for watching, cheers
I was wondering when your next video was coming out 👍 Checked youtube and it was released 22 seconds ago. Great job on the bushes and sleeves, and the editing is great too - nice pace, and no slow sections. Very easy to watch. Keep up the great work mate.
Well done Matty...it's awesome to see the magic us older crowd has up our sleeves to help out in a pinch to make a busted piece live to work another day!💪👍😁
That's a nice job well done! Always love the finish you get on 4140 (or 4340 as is the one I can easily get) - and as you demonstrated, you need to make sure you take decent cuts. Being feeble and taking light cuts, not so nice finish...
Gday Joe, this was a good job to take on, there’s quite a bit of machining involved but working to tight tolerances Is always interesting, thanks for watching, cheers
Hi Matty, for your oil/grease grooves look up that young, I think Philippino machinist who works off the floor with the most basic of tools. He produced an attachment for the tool post on his lathe that while the chuck turns the work, via pair of beveled gears, home made, and a Conrod like an engine would use, the tool gets moved in and out of the bushing producing a perfect "X" groove that doesn't exit the bush thereby keeping the oil inside the bush. I'll see if I can find the link. Otherwise, thanks for posting. Greetings from Canada's banana belt. 👍🍌🇨🇦🕊️🇺🇦🤔🇦🇺🤞
Gday, I did think of that but I’ve told the wife I need a bigger milling machine and so far I think she’s all good with the idea😉, thanks for watching, cheers
Great job on this one Matty. Really liked the wheel cylinder hone tip. What a great idea. Very big of you to help out a young person trying to make a living. Thanks for the video.
Really good of you to help out you sons young friend. In this day and age it is so hard for young people to start out that they need all the help that they can get. When my son started some of the tools he needed were over a days pay.
I'm with the others on the problem solving and helping the young guy out. Also just noticed that your up to 13.6k subscribers! Your gona hit that 20k in no time!
Way to help out the young fella, Matty. Helping one another is good trait to pass on to the next generation. Plus maybe you'll get some free labor in the future 👍😁👍. Cheers!
Gday Chris, it’s a good way to go and the young lad who owns this isn’t shy of work, he’s doing alright for a 16 year old, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Gday Alan, I never know what’s going to happen here, the gantry crane is bloody awesome, wish I’d made this years ago, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Gday Graeme, Zach is my oldest boy Trent best mate and there both having a big go which is great to see, there not shy of working and putting the hours in, cheers
I've never liked pins with grease holes in them. They always break at the grease hole whether it's halfway through or all the way. I try to convert to greasing the bushing bore. I've converted many pins to external threads on one or both ends because I've seen too many with cross bolts or end bolts shear off the bolts so the pin comes part way out. It also helps to keep the flanges from spreading. The machines aren't designed for sideways pressure but the operators never seem to know that.
Hi Matty, Up with Kurtis of CEE now!, soft bushes and shafts should last a bit if he's only using it occasionally, what was the material? Yes, I've seen those mini diggers treated like a 30 tonner as you say, especially hire ones. Brilliant job, and great photography 👏. Thanks for sharing.
Gday, the material was 4140 for both bushes and pins, it’s amazing how much abuse these little excavators will take, thanks very much for watching, cheers
Great job so far Matty, watching this 3 months down the line lol you are doing that young man a huge favour and you're a top bloke for doing it mate. I hope at least the lad is going to pay for all that 4140 as I suspect it's not cheap to buy. Looking forward to watching part two mate. Cheers, Sam
Gday, to get this done at a machine shop would of been far to expensive, he did buy the materials for the job, even that was getting up there for him really, thanks for watching, cheers
i made a similar job a couple of years ago,a digger-addon for an atv,so a bit smaller stick,whit the young guy watching..when i put it all together i said "damn..it actualy looks like i know what i'm doing here" the youngster looked at me in a very strange way..and i lost it completley🤣
Love the videos I was always taught to run coolant when parting off as you generate a lot of heat which usually causes the metal to expand and grip the parting tool and may give poor finish to the part
Nice work, Matty. Good of you to try and help out a young man making his way in the world. For the larger piece, could you have set something up in your lathe to line bore it like Max Grant did recently?
Gday Greg, I did think about line boring on the lathe but I’m not set up to do so, I’ve told the wife I need a bigger milling machine and so I think she’s agreeing, win win mate, Cheers
Hi Matty ... Excellet job making the bushes & pins, also showing good fitment. The line boring was very successful & worked like a breeze. Just wondering how you might have faired with a top & bottom cone for alignment.
Gday Ted, theres a bit of method in my madness here, I’ve told the wife I need a bigger mill to do these jobs 😉, so far things are looking good 👍, cheers
Hi Matty, Awesome work as always! I was just thinking. The problem you had boring the other parts. Limited room on the mill. Could you use the lathe as a line borer? I remember Keith Fenner doing something similar a while back. Just a thought..
Gday, I could of setup a bar in the lathe and line bored the job, I haven’t done this in the lathe yet and haven’t got a boring bar long enough, I told the wife I need a bigger milling machine and so far she has agreed, method in my madness mate, cheers
Mate, outstanding Pt -1 and even though you mite consider this a simple task, was great you shared, and be looking for Pt-2 of the 2 new lugs and a wrap. Being that today is day 4th day of being hit with the covid freight train, watching was better than all the meds they put me on to get relief (@@)! It's always a learning experience to how you tackle a job . The boring head,,,was that the one you made a few videos Back? Taught from our youth to freeze pressed parts as a trick of the trade, but Kurtis at CCE using liquid nitrogen has always got my interest. Have you experimented with it's uses? Bear
Gday Bear, I hope your getting over the Covid and your sticker will be in my next video, this is the boring head I made a while back, I need to make a new adjustment screw for it but it has worked flawlessly, it’s been put to the test many times, I’ve never used liquid nitrogen before but it’s great stuff, Thanks for watching and commenting mate and I hope you feel better soon, cheers
Never done but would think if you welded a thing disk in at the bottom of the hole Center drill in the mill then weld up and bore the disk out could work
How did these hold up? All the bushings ive replaced on minis have been hardened, so ive always just purchased the bushing and made a pin out of ground and hardened 4340 in whatever dimension the machine had in it? So am curious as to how it all works out when they arent hard
Gday Will, so far they have held up very well and he’s done a far bit of work around he’s little farm, his not shy with the grease so I don’t think there going to be a problem, thanks for watching, cheers
Nice job Matty - Would moving the greasing system to the arm, by drilling thorough the arm so the grease was injected in the centre between the bushes be a viable alternative to the hollow pin?
@@MattysWorkshop we have done that and forgot where we place the part and searched the workshop for quite awhile to discover our lapse in memory oooops the other part was placed in a small toaster oven to heat it ... worked out fine
Gday, To buy the brass or bronze was out of the budget, the young fella who owns this little digger is 16yo so trying to keep the cost to an absolute minimum, Thanks for watching, Cheers
Hi Matty, here's the link I was talking about. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Fd_Q9gCyUMM.html It's over an hour long but replaced about four other videos. Interesting device. Ron.
