Hey viewers thanks for watching today's video Part 2 of the D10 dozer track adjuster job! That silicon bronze wire is certainly different, not something I use too often, could you tell? 😂 But it certainly machines nicely and happy with the end results hope you enjoyed the vid! 😎👍 Make sure to subscribe & hit the bell icon to turn on notifications so you don't miss our weekly uploads. 👇 🤳 Follow us online here: Instagram instagram.com/cutting_edge_engineering Facebook facebook.com/cuttingedgeengineeringaustralia/
Looked like the Silicon Bronze went on well, though obviously it doesn't pay by it's self, may I ask what grade/composition it is?. Thanks. Correction, removed "Not" prior to went, don't know what happened there!
We use Silicon Bronze filler for build ups at work pretty often, what you got there is about as good as it ever goes on unless Tig is employed. We get into a good many ductile iron pistons and SB is the go to for that. Nice job!
@@steamfan7147 I've corrected my comment, I meant that it looked good, I've used TIG Bronze (not to a high standard), and does a great job, never considered it for surface build up. Thanks.
U have probably saved a few guys some pain just by how detailed you explain your process and how all your speeds and what not are on the video . I'm not a machinist but if I was I can see ur info being very useful thank u kurtis and Karen your work is appreciated
I am no machinist either but I love learning and I have a lathe that I picked up and hope to use when I get to build a new shop. Trying to pick up from a master.☺️
4 years ago now since this was posted and is still one of my favorites. I still occasionallly see you on the bare concerte but not as bad as you used to be. I really like working with Silicon Bronze. No particular reason, I just love its color and ease of machining. Brings out my romantic side, LOL. Thanks one more time for doing what you do so well and having us along for the trip folks. See you soon.
I've been watching Abom79 for years now, and only after I watched snake, crocodile, 60 Minutes AUS, and wallaby vids did you come up. Great work, clean shop, and and beautiful dog! Hello and Happy NY from NY!
@@rizdalegend I like watching his videos, but I have to skip though the 15 minutes of talking before he gets to work. A small explanation would be fine, but 10-15 minutes is way more than that for a simple part...
Wow Homie is pretty patient, I guess he knows to leave Kurtis alone while working, because that's how food is bought, good boy Homie. I love dogs and he makes me smile every time.
Hey Kurtis, I work for one of the big 3 here in the U.S., I work in suspension development & I use our machine shop for fixtures etc. Before the pandemic we were asked to participate in lathe, Bridgeport training regardless of our experience, when you were polishing that tube with the emery paper it reminded me of a training video we were shown where the operator put both ends of the Emery paper together & held it with his right hand, you know what happened, it pulled his arm in & around that work piece faster than you could say "oh crap", plus he passed out, instead of turning the machine off(they eventually did) his coworkers tried to pull him out...then that was the end of the video....GOD BLESS!!!
Love where this channel is going! Top shelf work from a machining and welding standpoint, excellent video quality, and a great shop dog:-) Keep up the good work!
Really enjoy watching you work. It is amazing. Never thought about a master machinist having to be a master welder. Learn something new every day. Thanks for sharing. From Lockhart, Texas USA
Hey John thanks for watching all the way over there! I actually have more years welding experience than machining but would do machining over welding now any day haha Cheers mate, Kurtis 😎👍
All the old machinist I remember, were master welders too.....just like this man has said, you have to make what you can't buy.....love watching these videos and the pup....
The age-old crafts, executed with modern technology, by a true craftsman. I’m an electrical/electronics type; even so, I find these videos fascinating and inspiring.
Very cool. I actually worked in the shop that made that part. Made thousands of them. Cool to see a part that you know about on TH-cam half way across the world.
cruch9 a que pieza te refieres al torno completo tu trabajaste en la planta donde los fabrican podrias darme informacion de donde puedo comprar un torno asi como ese me gusta mucho este torno por favor ayudame dame informacion de si lo puedo conseguir en mexico muchas gracias
it amazed me back years ago i was running a bobcat for a guy on a dozer (he wouldn't let me drive that) and he yelled at me for not greasing my bucket cylinder fittings and ignoring the squeaking so we greased that up then he turns around and throws the grease gun on a fitting near the tracks and then pumps and low and behold the track tightened up pretty cool system... idk if they all like that or what but that was cool ......... thanks for the video ......
You do very good work! I've done alot of line boring and some lathe work. I was the one taking broken machine's apart, having them repaired and reinstalling back on the machine's. Nice to watch and see how the repairs are done!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Who does your accounting and bill collecting? You need someone in the office to answer the phone as well. Does your office staff do the brews as well?
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering That totally works. My sister did that work for my brother-in-law but she doesn't have an accounting background. (She works for an accounting firm now.)
I do very much the same thing at work and my income is more than most engineers. Skilled craftsmen are hard to come by today. When it takes ten hours at $120 per hour to repair a $5000 component to as good or better than new in less time than getting a new one , the customer has no choice.
Hello Kurtis and the video lady, who is definitely a one off, I doubt if many ladys would put up with the noise, the fumes and being so close up to the machines, because they are extra special shots 💐💐. And the Safety Officer looks really browned off with the supervision of the Boss, it really interferes with his food brakes, a hard day for him 🐕 👍. Excellent videos again both, allways interesting👍 Best wishes, Geoff Lewis, Wales, UK, 🏴
I saw it used for the first time about 20 or 25 years ago at A large Sheet metal/hvac shop SF Bay area, Duct work tack welds mostly, was a bit surprised to see it used as you did.
Greetings from Illinois, U.S.A. Great videos, I know nothing about machining, but I love the precision work you do. You don't give us a lot of technical chatter, but I wouldn't understand it anyway. Keep posting you work. I love watching the videos.
Almost looks professional :) love watching your repairs. Gives a lot of satisfaction seeing something all bashed up turned back into something that can be used again.
I have had to do some emergency hydaulic repair a couple times once braze welding split hydraulic lines with oxy/acetylene but this is pretty interesting stuff here. Great dog you got there.
The safety officers warning/evacuation device is on its way via DHL...it’s scheduled to be delivered on Monday. Looks like he wants something to do. A gift from Anchorage Alaska
Hey mate the package arrived for safety officer and he loves it! It's squeaky and noisy as shit and not sure he will kill this one so will keep him busy hahahaa thanks heaps mate really appreciate the thoughtful gesture. 🐕😎👍
Is shows u can weld kirtis them looked amazing mate and u would rather have a little too much build up than too little 😉 What age is the dog 🐕 looks well set in his ways . Ps don't take cheek on hear front the comments there is some it will have u jumping thru hoops awkward blind folded into the swarf bin 😳 The more u stick to your guns the better the comments will be and don't think u can reply to us all after 5 or 10 thousand scribers mark u will send all day on them and u don't get paid for that shit. Enjoy yourself too all the best front Scotland
When I was working I loved jobs like this. Taking a messed up part, recovering it and comfortably changing into weld mode and so on. Big satisfaction making it happen for sure. Hmm, I still see you with your knees on the concrete. Get a pc of plywood or belting to kneel on or you will pay dearly later on my friend.
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Honest bud. I have the proof in my knee and back like sooooo many others and get a piece of plywood or belting at the lathe as well. The boss can afford them and unless you want to fight with Workers Compensation and deal with chronic pain that will make you cry make it happen my friend.I just can't say it enough. I know I seem like I am ragging on you but you really don't want to end up like me mate !
Hello Kurtis, I can vouch for what is chap is saying, I am a 74 year old Carpenter, Kurtis and a few things I wish I had done different, looking after my back, knees, and hips I "PAY" for that every day now, it drives me up the wall. Great video's, Anyway, best wishes, Geoff Lewis, Wales, UK 🏴🏴🏴
@@geofflewis4815 Hi, Ohh to have that bullet proof body of youth eh. Concrete literally sucks the life out of everything that has an electric field about it (My thoughts about it) Hips, knees and ankles are all at risk without something between us and that nasty stuff. An automotive battery left on it for a week turns to garbage. A bit of plywood or a nice pc of high density foam I found that works best. I am retired now and had my R leg amputated because the arthritis was so bad it had consumed the entire joint. My left knee isn't all that happy either. Every time I see a young fella like Kurtis I am first to get at them about that nasty, soul sucking stuff. Thanks for backing me up on this. I will be right over to sub a like minded fella like you new friend.
Doggo approves of the silicon bronze repair, nothing gets past that inspector if it ain’t up to scratch 😎😎 Awesome video as usual man, bronze welding of wear bands is something I have never done, but would like to learn, I’ve got a Rod right now out for bronze welding, final machining next week! 😎
Hey Zak hahaha yeah he's always watching 🤣 you should definitely have a go at it, if you've got some welding experience you shouldn't have a drama. Cheers, Kurtis 😎👍👍👍
Love sil bronze so versatile Never seen it on mag before mind you but then my days of weld long gone due to bad health and it has been become a down graded job in uk used to get good bucks but not any more even know a company that payed for a college to come in and set the plants up so any old sod of street could walk in and weld what they were told to
I enjoyed the video as usual . Never worked d10 I have on a D11 high track as that is what we used in the coal yard .Lot of machine and I enjoyed operating it
You make. It look easy mate. Those filling welds were top. Notch 😊👍🍻🍺🍺🍺🍺 Your channel is great , because you stick to machinist work. Older channels have become commercials for anyone who will pay them. Thanks mate🍺🍺🍺🍺
Hey Jerry thanks for watching and commenting glad you enjoy the vids mate. Yeah we like to donate large sums of money to our tooling suppliers haha 🤣 Have a good one 😎👍
Loving your channel. I’m a novice hobbyist, I wonder if you could do a video on explaining the reasons/decisions of what inserts your use and why the different types are selected, especially when you change on one job? Keep up the great work.
The shop mascot looks to be a mature dog. The pups don't grow the grey beard. And nice machine work too. Not to say more dog time is required but it sure makes my day easier.
Roman nose Bull terriers are slightly different . . they are jovial but will go for anything they don't fully understand like fire & sharp objects . . if you were an smoker up north with our dogs your cigarette would be chomped if not careful . . they stole sharp objects to
Beautiful work. Cast steel to wrought steel post weld I’ve had good luck with burying the part in Vermiculite if I have the time. After 24 hours it’s usually still too hot to touch but can air cool from there. Extra insurance, if you have the time.
Damn, I love watching you work ? I guess its the set ups ,watching the chips curl off the tool;. Everything just fits together spot on. All different kinds of welding, honing . That camera work is great ... But, the poor old dog, just sets there , all he wants is a pet on the Damn head once in a while. Hit the bell looking forward to the next one.. Stay safe , Love the Bloopers to, See Ya,
Hey Homey's looking thin in the hind parts, need to stop for lunch more often he thinks. Beautiful work! First class repair there and CAT should learn something.
Very nice repair. Your dog must have tough feet. The other day my youngest son was bleeding all over the house. He stepped on a piece of swarf that had come off one of my boots at home. Nasty cut. Ken
Hey Ken! Yeah it's nasty shit! Some swarf is worse than others. He does have tough paws and usually avoids the worse areas it's the sharp little chip breaker swarf that sometimes get stuck but he lets us know quickly. Hope your sons foot is better now! Have a good weekend mate 😎👍
Beautiful work✌👍 Welder/mechanic/jack of all trades here in California. Always amazes how ugly silicon bronze is welded up....yet its so damn beautiful when machined.
Gday Kurtis and Mrs Kurtis, awesome job, Looks like brand new again, I find this size and type of repair work really interesting, I’m looking forward to next Friday already, thanks mate, Matty
Hey Matty thanks heaps mate hope you had a good week and we're looking forward to adding your sticker to our collection. Cheers Kurtis and better half haha 😎👍

When I go back and watch one of your older videos I'm stunned how timid Homeless is. Great job making him a happy well adjusted dog!
😅 Timid isn't a word I would use to describe Homie. But you're being sarcastic, I know.
He really does seem subdued in this one. @@Mike_Regan
@moehoward01 not at all. In the older videos like this one he is shy. Nothing like the happy dog in the pack he is now.

Keep up the great work.
The shop mascot looks to be a mature dog. The pups don't grow the grey beard. And nice machine work too. Not to say more dog time is required but it sure makes my day easier.
Your craftmanship is simply top f&&$King shelf. Thats some incredible work there!
Thanks mate!
Great job and love the shop dog 🐕
Cheers mate thanks for watching 😎👍
Love the 4 legged supervisor
He's a good boy never far away
Dogie has discovered if he stays a distance from the lathe he avoids chips in his paws.
Yeah he avoids them pretty well and anything noisy he goes and hides in the office 🤣
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Typical Foreman! 🤣

Roman nose Bull terriers are slightly different . . they are jovial but will go for anything they don't fully understand like fire & sharp objects . . if you were an smoker up north with our dogs your cigarette would be chomped if not careful . . they stole sharp objects to
@@benwinter2420 Ours used to go and collect lit fireworks, well he did once...
Lived to be 18 yrs, funniest dog we ever had was Linus.
We love to watch your videos.I wish your machine shop was near us. You are awsome
Thanks mate! Appreciate the support
Beautiful work. Cast steel to wrought steel post weld I’ve had good luck with burying the part in Vermiculite if I have the time. After 24 hours it’s usually still too hot to touch but can air cool from there. Extra insurance, if you have the time.
What might be cool is to see some of your repairs put back into use.
Thank you for the picture of your puppy
He will probably do autograph photos soon 🐕🙄
that rotary welding and grinding would be a nice 2 man job
This way i've only got my self to shout at if it goes wrong hahaa
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering yeah usually i find the same thing. If you really wanted two man on the job you would have to clone yourself
Keep going mate !!! U r getting better and better with each passing video. Cheers 😊😊
Cheers mate really appreciate that! 😎👊💥
Great job as always!
Appreciate it thanks for taking time to watch and comment 😎👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering You are welcome. Keep it up.
I love seeing your dog, he's such a beautiful soul. And yes the rest of the work is top notch, thank you.
beautiful & meticulous work, Mate! Cheers from Up Over!
Damn, I love watching you work ? I guess its the set ups ,watching the chips curl off the tool;. Everything just fits together spot on. All different kinds of welding, honing . That camera work is great ... But, the poor old dog, just sets there , all he wants is a pet on the Damn head once in a while. Hit the bell looking forward to the next one.. Stay safe , Love the Bloopers to, See Ya,
Hey Homey's looking thin in the hind parts, need to stop for lunch more often he thinks. Beautiful work! First class repair there and CAT should learn something.
Hey Russ thanks mate. Hahaha it's an optical illusion because of his fat head makes it look like he missed leg day, he's top heavy for sure hahaa
Great workshop, excellent machinery, cant wait to watch your next video and cant believe you are only 5 minutes away from my house in Ormeau
Very nice repair. Your dog must have tough feet. The other day my youngest son was bleeding all over the house. He stepped on a piece of swarf that had come off one of my boots at home. Nasty cut. Ken
Hey Ken! Yeah it's nasty shit! Some swarf is worse than others. He does have tough paws and usually avoids the worse areas it's the sharp little chip breaker swarf that sometimes get stuck but he lets us know quickly. Hope your sons foot is better now! Have a good weekend mate 😎👍
Beautiful work✌👍
Welder/mechanic/jack of all trades here in California.
Always amazes how ugly silicon bronze is welded up....yet its so damn beautiful when machined.
Man you do some real nice work, just wanted to give you a compliment on it!! Good shit.....
Gday Kurtis and Mrs Kurtis, awesome job, Looks like brand new again, I find this size and type of repair work really interesting, I’m looking forward to next Friday already, thanks mate, Matty
Hey Matty thanks heaps mate hope you had a good week and we're looking forward to adding your sticker to our collection. Cheers Kurtis and better half haha 😎👍
I'm now of the firm opinion that half of all heavy machinery is just weld.
