  • @EarthSurferUSA

    Ohhh. Aluminum frames, after finished making at the factory (welds, and all), are then heat treated for toughness. By welding them, or heating up an area, you will lose the heat treating properties in that area, making it softer. Depending on where it is at, (high stress or not), there could be a breakage problem in use. The frame can be heat treated again after welding (for example), but they probably use special fixtures to hold the frames shape.

    Those rotary scotch bright pads are also great for cleaning off gasket surfaces, (I use medium grit). But first, you must scrape off all the gasket thickness, so you can clean the surface with one or 2 swipes and not deform the surface.

    Since this is the first time I have sen vapor blasting, would I be correct that it uses an abrasive particles mixed with water?

  • @EarthSurferUSA
    @EarthSurferUSA 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

    You don't do "quick and dirty" vapor blasting based on principal. I love to hear that. The principle is,----------- "A job worth doing, is worth doing well.". I studied manufacturing engineering in y self paid college, which is a guy who has seen a lot of processes. But this is the first time I have seen vapor blasting. I thought it was a sand blasting cabinet at first, which can also be used with a huge choice of media to use, but vapor blasting probably leaves no media to clean off the parts. I would guess for aluminum, sand blasters may try walnut shells, (you buy it crushed for sand blasters), as it is not very aggressive. Doug in Michigan

    Powder coating is nice. But you really don't want it under the heads of bolts either. It compresses, and bolts can come lose.

    It’s so cool seeing these resto jobs lately. It’s been getting harder and harder to find a lot of parts for these older two strokes. Taking care of what we have is so much more important now compared to 05 or even 2010 when nearly every part was still available.

    The passion that goes into these bikes is what I’m going to be striving for, it’s damn near close to perfection, amazing job guys, I’ve never been into the 2 strokes just because I race and the 4 stroke is the way to go as far as that concerned BUT the 2Ts are sick and they will never stop being cool fun and exhilarating I hope to see some 4 T content in the future because the attention to detail is second to none it really highlights the love you guys have for what you do, it’s not just a paycheck and that is something to get behind.

    Just wanted to say, I just found you guys and I’m getting SUPER into bikes lately, before I found you guys I just bought a 24 YZ 450 I just started racing last season and I’m doing well it’s in my blood, I’ve had some downtime and I’ve been watching videos and doing research as much as I can. Recently I found out I’m going to be getting a little bit of money, I’m only 23 and I’ve realized I like working on bike lbs just as much as riding them.. almost hahah , But I have a dream. I am going to be buying a 36ft box truck and turning it into a complete mobile repair performance shop, equipped with the whole 9. So if someone wants thier bike overhauled and rebuilt I can do that and also swap peoples tires at the track, I’ll be at the ameture races next season so I figure I’ll be in the perfect place where my services will be needed, and I’ll be mobile so I can go on service calls, it’s a dream rn but I’m going to make it a reality soon, I have to determination and drive. I whatched your video and you explicitly expressed not to worry about what anyone thinks and I really needed that because with my age it will be hard there will be a lot of naysayers but it will happen. Look out for me T.A.B.MOTO I just wanted to say you guys are awesome and Im really grateful to have found Mx revival and especially mxskillshack, rock on brothers thank you for all you do. I’m very hopeful my entry will get picked by that randomizer, I would be honored to have one of your bikes, it would be on the truck getting gawked at 24/7

    You were talking about those steel threaded inserts and how the vapor blaster would remove some of the zinc. Did you ever try the Caswell plug and plate, it looks like it might work for that. You two are so cute with your matching shirts, you look just like me and my wife with our matching shirts!!! Lol!!!

    • @MXSkillShack
      @MXSkillShack 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      We dressed to impress! Honestly, just keeping from burning the zinc off is enough (for me personally anyway) any amount of zinc on a fastener will still act as as a sacrificial layer before the rust actually takes over the steel. Having said that, I think you could be right about that. I’ve used it once and didn’t really care for it but I don’t believe it was set up properly. It does deserve another chance, and that brush would probably be perfect in those spots just like you said. Alternatively, if somebody wanted to, they could do a little bit of masking and shoot some black primer/rust reformer into those areas in severe cases. Perhaps even knock the PEM nuts out of there and replace them. Good thinking, Todd! -Charles

      Every company from Western Culture that has moved production to communism in china, is partly responsible for funding communism, and giving communism our free enterprise. If we go buy price instead of morality, (communism and free enterprise are not compatible, which is why we are losing everything we built), we will fall to communism. Trust me.

    min 15. Yes, you can measure from a point on the swing arm to that point on the Works Connection adjuster, but you still don't know if both of those points on the swing arm you are measuring from (one on each side), are the same distance from the swing arm pivot center. The hash marks maybe just as repeatable.

    • @EarthSurferUSA
      @EarthSurferUSA 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Probably the best way to make sure both sides are adjusted the same, is to use a tool that measures from the center of the swing arm pivot, to the center of your rear axle. A yard stick like piece, and 2 centers would do it, even with no numerical measurement. Just set it after the chain tension is right on one side, and make the other side the same distance with the set tool. That way, you are not trusting manufactured (and welded here too) parts that have a variance.

      Hello! Thanks for the comment and theory. Precision is key so I see where you're coming from. I have to say in my time of working on dirt bikes (32 years as an enthusiast and 22 years professionally) I've never encountered a need for such tool for alignment. These WC axel blocks make the precise need very achievable. There are the times of coarse where something is off from MFG or a crash that such "jig" would be handy.

    All the builds with so much attention to detail and cosmetics is second to nothing, totally off the hook and then to see some of them in magazine articles etc is incredible 😃 I learn something from each video and Charles and Uncle Tony make it interesting and fun - as far as a name be a Honda I would call it the " red-devil " thank you for the information on these videos

      Hey Brett! We’re quite fond of it too. Was a gamble, but it’ll work out. Oh you should reach out to Dean at FAST BLAST & COAT. Tell him you saw it in the video. Tony / MXSS

      YOU Know what’s neat! You could also win this bike with all those parts on it for $10/month. Hell of a lot cheaper than a set of bars… Tony / MXSS
