Great video Viny! I was a machinist for SKF USA until they relocated to India. The raceway (SKF called it a "cup") you were trying to make is a difficult part to craft at home. At the factory we used a magnetic chuck and cup shoes at the 6 and 3 o'clock positions to hold the cup centered in place during the grinding process. The process is to first make the cup larger than the finished product by around +.030 to +.060 (+.75 to +1.5mm) then heat treat the rough oversized "green cup". After the heat treat process, the cup is then finish ground to size with a stone (while using coolant). We used Cincinnati Milicron grinding equipment that held the cup in place with a magnetic chuck. You could substitute a finish grinder in place of your lathe tool holder and if you can work out a magnetic chuck for your lathe driver with steadying shoes at the 6 and 3 o'clock positions, welcome to the bearing manufacture business. I realize you're probably not going to make this exact size cup again but the same process applies with all bearing cups. I know you can do it, understanding the process is the key.
that or finish machining after heat treating, skinny big diameter pats are a pain if you want minimum distortion you gotta flip them bunch of times before machine them to size
Mixture of hilarious, informative and identifiable. I thought someone had been filming me in my wood shop. When the crap hits the fan and no one gets hurt, it's a win. Great work!
That’s a big win. keep your eye out for another bearing race. Somewhere out there, on a shelf in a dusty box with the label worn off is pair of rebuild kits, bearings, races, gaskets and seals. The biggest changes in my lifetime is the internet and information sharing, so keep a list of part### , it’s out there somewhere. Great TH-cam channel!
Vinny I love your videos and hope to use some of what you have learned and taught on the channel to fix up my truck and a few other things I want to get running again👍
Great video as always. A note on cleaning, as I do a lot of assy/disassy of heavy equipment (loaders, graders, fork lifts)... get a rubbermaid storage tub and pour a gallon of diesel in it. Don't clean parts as you disect assemblies... put whole assembly in the tub and clean your parts as you go. It helps keep your work space much cleaner and the filth is contained.
I have to say that is about the toughest part I've ever seen anyone successfully make to repair a piece of equipment. Getting that steel bearing race part fabricated, hardened, and installed without specalized tools and equipment took this to a whole different level. Skill, ingenuiety, and sheer willpower to get the job done that you displayed makes me applaud you. I commend you to the highest level, you are a different kind of man, a type not often seen today, quite rare indeed. Thank you for posting this record of your work.
Paul from Ontario here... I love the video, great repair... I am working on IH 434 here... When I am forced to machine thin unhappy parts like that, I have been known to hose clamp a die grinder or even a 4 inch electric grinder right to the tool holder, then grind the parts... Way less pressure on the parts and chuck teeth... I might have even been seen gluing or spot welding parts to a heavier base to clamp. Or even, heaven forbid right to the chuck... I am an outside the box thinker... I don't like it when parts come out to try to get me lol... Cheers... You seem like a cool guy to hang out with :)
Hey thanks Paul for your suggestions! My mindset was not at it's best this afternoon of machining, and thinking of smarter/safer ways to make it was not my priority, unfortunately! 🤦♂️I'll do it better next time!
@@VinyB57 Kinda makes a guy wonder how they made them in the first place? :) One piece like you did, or rolled and welded or maybe stamped or maybe even powder pressed? IDK?
@@paulpedersen6904 I've seen parts like that made from thicker sheet metal heated and conformed in a many ton press and die to "rough shape", then the inside is ground to surface, the rest then cut off, and ces't viola!, a new part. IDK if part of Viny's parts problem is where he is- most bearings are in standard sizes, if for no other reason than the sheer cost to have a proprietary line done for them.
Also, a trick for the arsenal... the Liquid JB Weld will affix very firmly, but becomes a fluid again and turns loose at about 6 or 700 degrees Fahrenheit, easily achievable with propane or a mapp gas torch and PROBABLY without affecting your heat treat TOO much. So you could always affix the workpiece to something more skookum with the JB, machine it, then separate the two with the plumber's torch. I'm told you can do the same thing with super glue but... spinning schtuff held together with superglue in a lathe a foot form my face makes my tail all bushy. The original source of this wisdom came to me from an old guy that had a bulldozer with a live PTO shaft coming out the back of the transmission. It wasn't a spud, it was machined right onto one of the main shafts of the trans. It was hardcore, double-secret unobtainium, would have required completely disassembling the crawler and THEN completely tearing down the transmission, and that just wasn't going to happen. The whole thing was on the brown side of ripe, and disturbing the factory assembly to such an extent would just result in a whole lot of deferred maintenance. But the splines were clapped on the PTO shaft, and it would keep throwing the PTO driveline for whatever implement they were using. Now, they only used this machine occasionally, and only with two implements, and they used one for half the year and the other for the other half. So they drove the coupling pin out of the yoke for the implement shaft, stuffed it in place on the PTO output shaft, mixed up a batch of liquid JB weld nice and runny, poured it in the hole and let it run around the splines and set up cock stiff. They'd run the implement half the year, swap it out for the other one, warm up the coupler with a torch, and it would slide right off and they'd swap to the other implement shaft, lather, rinse, and repeat. He assured me they'd been doing this for years with no problems. Might solve a tricky fixturing issue at some point in the future. Cheers!
Use the mystery steel to make a set of dies to press a new outer race for that large diameter bearing. Probably have to do it in 3 steps to slowly crunch a piece of 4140 sheet into shape.
The humor side of these videos always cracks me up. Got a good friend and his wife up in Winnipeg. Were going up there next year. LOL May just stay there.
Whaou ! Superbe vidéo :) Je l'ai eu en suggestion TH-cam, je l'ai mis "à regarder plus tard" et le moins que je puisse dire c'est que je ne regrette pas. Le montage est extrêmement bon : c'est super bien filmé, raconté et tout ça avec de l'humour. Ainsi les 24 minutes passent très très vites. Une belle découverte. Merci pour vos vidéos, je m'abonne depuis la France.
Sad that it got to this point in the first place but at least you repaired it before any real damage was done. There's no reason this tractor shouldn't still be going in 50 years.
Wow!!..That was a lot of work!!!..Really great seeing you fabricate the parts you need..I just purchased an old Atlas lathe and I believe the learning curve is a little steep but I will get there..-John
One thought on heating up the bearing race, you could try a makeshift oven by heating it up with the torch and surrounding it with fire bricks, maybe it could contain enough heat to get it up to temp
Vinny is my spirit animal I swear…..😂😂😂. Heck of an effort. I’m actually shocked and impressed you were able to make a lot of the parts you made in your own shop.
That was painful. Love the patients to fix it. Put a new tractor on the wish list. It only took me 30 years to get my new tractor, only wish i had it sooner. Love your channel and joking around. Keep up the good work.
Hope it wasn't too painful to watch! 😉 I kinda like my old MF... in a few years she will be the best looking thing around the neighborhood...😅 (if I exclude my wife! )
I’m in Vancouver, else I’d come by with a case of a Molson to celebrate a terrific job, one that the patron Saint of all Canadian men, Red Green, would certainly approve in both quality and execution!
Kubota might have adaptable parts for this little ripper 👍 I hate it when people just ignore damage being created due to lack of maintenance. No mechanical sympathy 👺 Your patience and humor saved you from insanity here I think 🤪
You have some of the most enjoyable mechanical videos I have ever seen on the 'tubes. Amazing job. We have a similar Masey parked in the woods here near our farm shop that was parked 30+ years ago because of similar issues. Parts you can no longer get. I occasionally will search Ebay for parts, and I do get lucky sometimes. Eventually I will have enough parts to get it put back together. I just don't have the patience or tooling needed to make my own parts like you do.
I watch TH-cam vids for entertainment and information, your video gave me plenty of entertainment. I will watch for more of your videos. Also, I to am a Canadian. Thanks for sharing
Hey! glad you got entertained my fellow canadian friend! There's a few more vids available! But start with the newest stuff...the younger, the better...a mean...you got it, right? 🤦♂️
Once again, you have absolutely amazed me, Mr. B, and your French Canadian accent and corny jokes are part of what has endeared me to you and your adventures. By the way, did you ever get heat in your shop? Thanks for sharing with us Viny, I certainly enjoyed it!
Love your work! You know what will happen in another 40 years' time... some TH-camr (or the equivalent) will dismantle that hub and marvel at the repairs... perhaps not in a sympathetic way!! But you can only do the best with what you have, and I think that is exactly what you've done. Well done!
Oh my lord, this looks just like the tractor my grandfather sold a few years ago, albeit his was heavily modified after MANY YEARS of daily use. What made him sell it in the end? He was getting too old to keep up with it, and parts were impossible to get, especially where we live(so we had to weld and make our own parts). They truly dont make them like they used to. thanks for the video
Thanks , I have already watched all your tractor videos and look forward to more My first tractors were roper garden tractors but built my own loader and backhoe for them Planning on swapping them over to the massey
@VinyB57 I may have one that I haven't used in forever if you are interested. Not much use for the big one as I have a smaller one and CNC on my Bridgeport.
I like it. Very resourceful. Have to do that when you want to keep the old iron alive instead of falling into that pit of having to buy new stuff that doesn’t last. Kinda the same boat we are in with the ‘83 Case 1490 (rebadged David Brown,) most stuff is either unavailable, crazy expensive or only readily found in Europe where DBs are all over.
You got the sub from me. I’m from Newfoundland and for the past 10 years I’ve been working with 12 Quebecers. Their English has a Newfie accent and I know all the swear words in French. TaBerNac.

Viny you're the engineer here and you're the one who has an idea of what he's doing but, wouldn't have been better to make 3D printed dimple dies for the bearing race and given it shape with a press???
I wouldn't do 3D printed dies, cause it needs to be at 90° and would required a sh!t ton of force to forme...but I think, you're right, they must have used that process to manufacture those races...I never though about dimple dies...good idea mate! 👌
@VinyB57 tbh 3D printed dies made of nyloncf or petg filaments could be fairly strong, I suggest looking into it for future projects, but I suppose it's a simple enough shape that you could've made the dimple on the laith Excellent work as always! I can't wait to see more restoration work done to this tractor
Good job! No one like you can make this more entertaining then you....its really interesting that it hasnt made sounds before, I mean you have put this Masy to his/her test.....ok the backhoe , could it maybe been helping to NOT make the sound you had in the beginning of the film...? Question.... hardening steel at home, does it have to be a special kind of steel, or can you hardening any kind? And does not hardening marke it more britall? And can you use any oil, I got at home....? Really nice job, and love to see you films, always the first Im starting to watch at then you realized the new! Take care!
Tony, you need high carbon steel, if you want to have hardened steel. Yes, pretty ,much all oils will work, some may more toxic then others! You should check youtube videos about the subject to get more details!
Just found your channel and this is the first video I have watched. You got a thumbs up and a new subscriber. Your video is informative and very entertaining. Keep up the good work.
Vraiment du beau travail! Sérieux j’ai adoré ton vidéo! Ça fesait très drôle d’écouter en anglais avec un accent connu😂Mais ma partie préférée c’est les sacres 🤣🤣🤣
I have been subbed, always like and often add my 2 cents here in the comment section. You are making this tractor be ready for another 40 years, well, at least 20 🙂 Thanks VinyB 👍💪✌
😎👍😎 Wow.. Ive watched many youtube videos of various repairs ...first time ive seen someone make a race..in their garage..as well as a seal.. Way to go ..👍👍👍
If you have to make another bearing race in the future. Finish your bearing services to specks, leaving the outside a little bit of extra material like a T shape. Print out a hard plastic plug for the bearing side that is pressed in place. Then chuck it in the 4 jaw. Take a grinder and bring the outside to specks. It shouldn't become warped as easily, and you can clamp to scrap material for hardening. Love your videos, BTW.
I would be very interested to see how the 3d-printed seal holds up in the long term. I think it has a fighting chance in the low speed, short action environment though.
Oh yeah, I'm sure it will be just fine! If it wasn't for the time it takes to re-assembled the spindel with the yoke, printing a new one and changing it would be super easy!
"To dream, the impossible dream..." I loved the sense of humor amid the horror of worn out, unavailable parts, and insane machining. This from an old mechanic with quite a few scars on his fingers.

You got the sub from me. I’m from Newfoundland and for the past 10 years I’ve been working with 12 Quebecers. Their English has a Newfie accent and I know all the swear words in French. TaBerNac.
Awesome video man! Love watching these! Always a good laugh!
thanks Josh for you good comments, that helps greatly the channel! 👍
Great job, I love to make old things new again.
Me too, it's way more rewarding!
Just discovered this channel... I am all in!
Glad you are! 🤙
Incredible Viny!
Hi Viny, You are absolutely right this video deserved a subscription, So I did, Keep up the good work.Gord ,Ontario .
Thanks Gord!
You are incredibly skilled and enjoyable to watch. 😂
Thanks David, glad you liked it!
Je suis content que vos vidéos aient été diffusées sur ma suggestion. Je peux tout à fait comprendre vos frustrations. Et comprendre vos frustrations dans plus d'une langue était extrêmement pertinent. Restez au chaud cet hiver, mon ami. J'essaierai de faire la même chose dans la neige de SLC, Utah.
So if you're from Utah, you must speak english...so is it a translate comment or do you really speak french?

Enjoyed the creation of 'good enough' parts.
WOW! I am impressed with your efforts.
great job and excellent entertainment
Viny you're the engineer here and you're the one who has an idea of what he's doing but, wouldn't have been better to make 3D printed dimple dies for the bearing race and given it shape with a press???
I wouldn't do 3D printed dies, cause it needs to be at 90° and would required a sh!t ton of force to forme...but I think, you're right, they must have used that process to manufacture those races...I never though about dimple dies...good idea mate! 👌
@VinyB57 tbh 3D printed dies made of nyloncf or petg filaments could be fairly strong, I suggest looking into it for future projects, but I suppose it's a simple enough shape that you could've made the dimple on the laith
Excellent work as always! I can't wait to see more restoration work done to this tractor
@@VinyB57 Tack weld that race to a face plate once it got too thin to be safe. Great video!
Hard way makes it more valuable
@@VinyB57 am i right?
Good job! No one like you can make this more entertaining then you....its really interesting that it hasnt made sounds before, I mean you have put this Masy to his/her test.....ok the backhoe , could it maybe been helping to NOT make the sound you had in the beginning of the film...?
Question.... hardening steel at home, does it have to be a special kind of steel, or can you hardening any kind? And does not hardening marke it more britall? And can you use any oil, I got at home....?
Really nice job, and love to see you films, always the first Im starting to watch at then you realized the new! Take care!
Tony, you need high carbon steel, if you want to have hardened steel. Yes, pretty ,much all oils will work, some may more toxic then others! You should check youtube videos about the subject to get more details!
Just found your channel and this is the first video I have watched. You got a thumbs up and a new subscriber. Your video is informative and very entertaining. Keep up the good work.
Thanks mate, glad you subbed! 🤙
Vraiment du beau travail! Sérieux j’ai adoré ton vidéo! Ça fesait très drôle d’écouter en anglais avec un accent connu😂Mais ma partie préférée c’est les sacres 🤣🤣🤣
I have been subbed, always like and often add my 2 cents here in the comment section.
You are making this tractor be ready for another 40 years, well, at least 20 🙂
Thanks VinyB 👍💪✌
Big thanks! Can we start with 10 years...not sure the engine will live that long! 😅
@@VinyB57 10 years are good enough 🙂
And after 20 it's sold for scrap and ends up being rebuilt in the Punjab to last another 50 years.
😎👍😎
Wow..
Ive watched many youtube videos of various repairs ...first time ive seen someone make a race..in their garage..as well as a seal..
Way to go ..👍👍👍
Thanks Jerry!
Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!👍
I have the same tractor. We pay attention to the proper torque on the front pivot joints.
Cool vid, Vinny! Great repair! Awesome channel
Thank you, appreciate it!
If you have to make another bearing race in the future. Finish your bearing services to specks, leaving the outside a little bit of extra material like a T shape. Print out a hard plastic plug for the bearing side that is pressed in place. Then chuck it in the 4 jaw. Take a grinder and bring the outside to specks. It shouldn't become warped as easily, and you can clamp to scrap material for hardening. Love your videos, BTW.
I liked the video and the fun you had LOL
I would be very interested to see how the 3d-printed seal holds up in the long term. I think it has a fighting chance in the low speed, short action environment though.
It will be good, it's not going to do 100k miles or 100mph in Viny's yard.
Oh yeah, I'm sure it will be just fine! If it wasn't for the time it takes to re-assembled the spindel with the yoke, printing a new one and changing it would be super easy!
"To dream, the impossible dream..." I loved the sense of humor amid the horror of worn out, unavailable parts, and insane machining. This from an old mechanic with quite a few scars on his fingers.
Thank you sir! Glad you liked my buffoonery! 😉
I enjoyed that. Nice work!
Cheers mate! Glad you liked it!
Nicely done!!
Thank you!
Great job, fun to watch
Awesome job!! Enjoyed the video!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Es tie what a job!! Nice work!!
Merci, merci! 🙏
Viny very interesting seal material how about a 100 hour update on seal and bearing integrity?
I'll be glad to do it...only if the spindel was not such a F*&?$%er to put in! 😅
Great work sir!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
