Line boring and bore welding rototilt attachment

- In this video i line bore and bore weld a worn hole on a rototilt attachment.
The grease pipe had got damaged without realising meaning the brush wasn't getting any grease.
First the hole was line bored back round again and oversized. The bore welder was then installed and set up ready to weld, problems with the gas coverage meant the weld was bubbling and very badly porous. After 2 failed attempts and having to bore the weld back out again, i realised the problem was with the shroud. With a longer tip and a better shroud the bore welder finally performed like it was supposed to.
2 runs of weld were built back up in the hole before line boring back to 70mm
The new bushes were then pressed in.
Hope you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Amazing how quickly 43 minutes flew past. You did not have mistakes you had a problem to solve and you brought us along as you solved it. Very educational.
Very nice job an a very good video again. Showing your mistakes is very important and makes your videos so natural, feeling close to the real world jobs where nothing goes right first time. Doing it by hand would certainly have been faster, but now you learned about this process and have a new tool in your sleeve for future jobs. What i particularly liked about this video is your camera work and exposure settings (not too dark or too bright) around the bore welding showing the process perfectly.
Thanks for your great work! 😊
👍👍
I agree. Great job Sir.
The new year started with its challenges, but you came out on top as usual
Yes, I must thank Wes for promoting your channel
10/10 for leaving in the learning curves, nobody would judge you for them it speaks to your nature of doing things properly.
WWW was right...this is an awesome channel. Love these vids. Thanks for uploading.
Thanks for watching!
Happy New Year, Oliver. I wish you all the best, mate, for 2024.
There's always the chance from oil or grease contamination when lineboring, which can cause unwanted bubbles as you had and is not just poor gas flow.
A guy I used to watch in California sadly died in 2021 from COVID. He worked with heavy plant machinery, the really big stuff, earth movers, scrapers etc.
He would pride himself on making sure he did the best possible job that he could because, in his line of work, reputation meant everything.
He learnt the hard way, just like you will. So, whenever he had a job where brass bushings were greased via nipples or greasing lines, much like the broken one on your project, he would use a blow torch with the biggest rose tip I have ever seen.
He would heat the work up prior to welding, which, as you know, causes grease to leak from joints that were invisible to the naked eye at least, on camera they were.
As a fabricator welder, I know only to well the issues with poor welds when rust, oil, or grease are present. Either one can be the difference between a good or disastrous weld and the difference of being contracted to do more work.
As for the shroud, we never had the fancy pancy ones you have. All we had was the standard type like the ones you use with your mig welder. Try using that one next time, of course, you will need to make adjustments but checkout the difference.
Lastly, edit your videos of course but always show your mistakes. That's how everyone learns.
Thanks fella, looking forward to seeing your next project. 🤘🇬🇧⚒️
Thanks for sharing. Glad wes told us about your channel
Best channels on TH-cam…this channel, Cutting Edge Engineering, On Fire Welding, IC Weld, and Abom79.
It’s great to see you overcoming issues. The bore welder is quite hypnotic to watch. I like it.
Flipping this thing over and letting gravity help keep things aligned correctly is a pretty good idea.
What a great job diagnosing the gas coverage issue with the welder. I wouldn’t have figured that out on my own. I was definitely thinking the metal itself had contaminates in it causing the bubbles in the welds. You definitely taught me something here👍
The hardest learned lessons are the easiest remembered.
just another example of how to do a job and do it right as say . i like following you along good clear explanation of what you need to fix the problem at hand . then sort as to where you won't the job to make things easier . bore it out weld it out bore it out new bushes in job done and all in a day of getting it customer must be happy with this sort of service turnaround and only lost a couple of days work Well done to you Big Cheers great work right there
Not a machinist, but still love yer problem solving and attention to detail Oli. Welcome to 2024. Take care & stay safe.
Very good video again Oliver, I am sure that all your viewers appreciate your honest portrayal of the repairs you make in your videos, and as with all new processes we use we have to adapt and learn.
Nicely done, at least you sorted out what was wrong with the gas shield. I know once we were on site and getting similar bubble welds and it was down to a strong draft, once we shielded the work area it was fine. When you first put the legs on the rotor it looked like a demented robot, I did chuckle. Stay safe and well mate 👍
Very good video, Oliver. Gas containment seems to be a rather ubiquitous problem with bore welding. Glad you got it sorted. The vertical setup made a lot of sense. Thanks for another 43 minutes of educational entertainment! 🙂
Always look forward to a new video. Your ingenuity is truly amazing. How refreshing to see a really hard working and very skilled tradesman working in a rough shop and turning out first-class work on busted equipment that most shops would refuse--at least that's how it is here in the U.S. Great work, humble and honest attitude, and no infomercials!! I love the farm shots and would like to see more.
Truly enjoy your videos. Hoping there is a drier, warmer rat free workshop in your future.
Way to stick with it! So hard when things are going wrong, but you showed how to keep trying. Good work!
Great stuff. I've said it before, but it's not the problems but the solutions that are are the measure of the man. thanks for posting.
Time well spend on figuring out that bore welder. It's going to be a nice addition for future jobs I'm certain.
Well done, thanks for sharing!
Great work 3 times the charm , that’s what makes you so good. Perfection. Thank you for another great video. Cheers Andy Australia
Experience isn’t expensive, it’s priceless😋
I like your patience in working out the challenges.
Thanks for not blaming us for stopping by...though there is always that guy. hummm? Well back to the coach.
Nice job.Thanks for sharing the failures as well as the successes. That is how we all learn!
Good job Ollie! OG Kurtis would be proud of the weld ( 27:34) Every day is a school day. You've learnt so much from this first real job with the bore welder.👋👋
Great to see you overcome the issues with the bore welder ,that machine will save you a lot of time when you have it mastered.👍👏
Happy New Year, Olly
What makes your channel successful and popular is your humbleness, honesty & realism
It's not all edited perfection, but more look theses an issue or fault let's problem solve share knowledge and move forward with great results.
Your customers aren't just paying for jobs but investing in quality, talent & a future of Great British agricultural and mechanical engineering
You are honest and persistent in your work. You don't give up and rely on easy solutions. Many covered up the mistakes. It's great to watch you work, thanks for the good videos!
Another very enjoyable video. Although I think you may want to consider the safety of breathing welding fumes.
Hello Oliver from the USA....good work as always. Good catch with welding head gas nozzle. Until next time, keep them coming!
Once again, you amaze us with your problem solving. Have you considered putting a fine thread thumb screw on the back side of your dial indicator? This may allow for better control of your adjustments. Just a thought.
Enjoyed the video very much. Learning the issues you came across and your solution to them is so inspiring. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😃 Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
nice job and good that you found the problem regarding the gas flow.
cheers ben.
The UK answer to MacGvyer, is you Mr Snowball.
I can feel the cold stel drawing heat out of my body through the screen. I did a few months of welding in a barn back in 1988
Every job is a learning experience when your welding no two jobs are the same
Great job. Good for you for persevering and getting it sorted out. Try tacking a collar of the same internal diameter on top and bottom before welding, that way the lead-in and lead-out will be in the sacrificial collars. Grind the tacks off, remove collars, done. Have a great day!
I thought that welder was going to let you down at one point. But you did a great job sorting it out, it looked to be a very good weld after you had dialled it all in. Well done!
It looks like the weld cuts better than the original steel plate ...little frustrating but u got there in the end well done ..ps I'm still looking for a high low for my furgi thks for the video keep up the good work...
Well done for keeping at it, must have been so frustrating. The welds look amazing when it was working properly. Happy New Year ☺️
I would suggest getting a set in bore snap gauges for measuring your internal diameter. In my 6 years Lineboring experience I’ve found that get a hot preheat then letting it cool a bit to burn any grease or impurities out does wonders. Also if your bore welder has the ability to adjust the step up function, if you run a very small step for the first few rounds it will build up the bottom eliminating the need to hand weld the bottom.
Very very cool on the trial and error with the bore welder, but with a really quick in shop tooling fix it came out spot on!
Very nice, doing dang near the impossible with shop built tools! Awesome!
Keep em coming!!!!
10/10 for persistence and another great engineering repair, well done. The bore welder is new to you and learning is all part of it, something I think we forget as adults we just expect to be able to do things 1st time. Thanks again Olly for a great channel. Happy New Year for 2024.
If your a plant engineer you will come across stuff like this weekly look at how bad most of these attachments are abused (30yrs in mines/quarries) the more you use the bore welder the better you will get, they do chimney more in cold weather and it is cold up your way, sound job Oliver.
Hi Ollie, Good job mate. The problems you encounter and how you get around them is what we like to see. It makes for a far more interesting video. Warts and all is what we are looking for. That tells us that you are a normal bloke experiencing all the same problems we have or are experiencing. Thanks for sharing Ollie, interesting as always. Hope you have a good year. Cheers Mate.
Well done figuring out the porosity problem. I would have blamed it on the gas and been back to the shop. I definitely did not think it was the shroud type. I learned a lesson today. Good work 👍
Now THAT is a farmer jack handle 😂
Every body makes mistakes it’s a good honest man that shows it and ways a top job done as normal 👍 🇮🇲
Good on you for leaving the problems in.
We watch to learn from you.
(And just for fun)
Finished job looked great, you should be proud of your work.
If you ever get a chance you should drive around so we can see where you live farm and all. Great video.
Excellent video, really enjoying your learning path. Good to see manual caliper skills in action, a dying art.
As usual a genius at work well done Olly and happy new year
Happy new year!
Nice work Ollie. Love your patience and attention to detail.
Nice to see what can go wrong as well as how you fixed it. Also thought the shots through the welding mask were really good, thanks!
Appreciate showing the problem solving an issue the most. Thats how we all can learn. Keep them coming
Oliver great job, and very interesting to watch, nothing wrong with real world engineering
Well done, l like to use a chain ratchet on the forks for lifting, then I can easily adjust what I’m working on without having to go back to forklift all the time, thanks for the real life videos
We due it right, because we do it -twice- three times! 🤣 Top work, as always, Ollie! Thanks for showing us your struggles. Only way to learn! Cheers, mate!
The pitter patter of your foot steps right before you fit the weld bar in place had me dying😅😅😅 that sounded exactly like a stock audio clip
Kudos to you for your perseverance, Oliver; that was a challenge but I know you won't let bad work leave your shop.
Man that weld looks way better after the upgrade.
When it gets worse again think about pipe welding and a second gasshielding.
We did that always while pipe welding.
חבר...אלוף,אלוף ומקצוען...כייף לראות אותך עובד רגוע 🤝👏🇮🇱🌹👍💪💪💪💗
Cracking video Oliver happy New year mate 👍
Happy new year
Great video Oli , thanks for keeping it real it shows what really goes into these jobs 👍
You are amazing person, solution minded saving so much time and money. Happy prosperous new year.
Patience of a saint, Ollie. Great work to try so many times to get it right. Well done!!!!!
I have had many things go wrong with bore welding, but the bore acting like a chimney and sucking the gas away is not one of them. Clogged holes in the diffuser, inadvertently not having enough flow or no flow of gas. (running out or pinched gas line) Bad bottle of gas once. Too much gas flow causing turbulence or just plane crappy material are a few of the adventures. Once I was involved in testing some ideas for a stubby compact torch and we found that the diffuser was not long enough and had to add a baffle plate inside the works to allow it to work. That idea went onto production and is still in use. Looks like you encountered a similar problem with your short shroud as you call it. Looks like you got it sorted out out, well done Oliver Cheers. Edit :sometimes in multi pass welds you need to do some touch up by hand It's nothing unusual.
Absolutely brilliant again. Love the honesty. Great work
Well done for staying with it, as they say 3rd time lucky! Like how you show your process for working things out, am glad that your able to use equipment that you've developed, hopefully it gives you a great deal of pride when you see it working as it should.👍 You'd think though you would know that your grease line was broken, it would be spewing out everywhere and you'd be using so much.
Great job again Oliver
Great work olly and well done your videos are well worth a watch you certainly know your stuff love all your work shop tools and machinery 👍
The only way to learn is to do, work out why it didn't do what you wanted, and try again and again until you get the results that you wanted in the first place. We appreciate your honesty in showing us the struggle, thank you.
I hope your customers appreciate your skill in repairing their equipment
top bit of perseverance and patience there ;Snow, top job.
That was a tough nut to rack, brilliant diagnosis on the short shroud issue, guessing the shielding gas was uncontrolled, with no lamellar flow provided by longer, narrower shrouds. Obviously bore diameter dictates shroud length.
Very interesting Oliver, thanks for sharing 👍.
Best regards from the Black Country.
John.
Nice job and showing your entire process is the way to go. We all make mistakes and try to learn from them.
You are a fast learner I enjoy your videos
Great work!
Great job as always. I commend your determination when problems arise.
Great job, Oliver! Thanks for leaving everything in, it allows us to learn with you - the key thing is that you solve the issues and complete the job successfully, and we see how to do that too. Many thanks again, great video!
40 👍's up SBE thank you for sharing 😊
Happy new year young man . Well I gotta say you definitely deserve praise on the bore welder fault finding and reboring of the hole more than once .. was a great bit of fore sight on the mounting point being suited to both the welder and line borer. And credit for leaving in the issues . Thanks for a very interesting video for the start of the year .
Me: I have a circle that is broken. Farmer genius mechanic: No problem we fix it. Me: But you only have a square, how you gone fix it with a square? Farmer genius mechanic: Relax just watch me. 😀 Love the channel, keep sharing!
Typical farmer.....moleys as a jack handle 🤣 love it
The proper jack handle has been misplaced 🙄
@@snowballengineering or chopped up and used for something else lol
ask me how i know
@@delboytrotter7902 yes but it was the right size only had to trim off a half inch and the hole was in the right place from the get go
The next bore weld you do will be so much easier now you have invested time in that one.
Great video. Thank you for creating the content for us. Ian B.
You have an amazing skill. Very enjoyable to watch. Keep the good videos comin👌
I just learnt so much from watching you go through that pain. Thank you SO MUCH!!!!!
Amazing! love your videos! So straight forward and no pretending! Rarely seeing this kind of honest content these days! Keep it up! And your inventions are from another reality!
Thank you for sharing, I start my sunday morning with your project , it is awesome 👍👍👍👍
Starting as we mean to go on❤️
It’s amazing what you do with just a forklift
Not to mention all the other cool tools you use
Awesome job Oliver. You always adapt and overcome the challenges thrown your way!
As always, a pleasure to watch.
With having to lift that line borer off and on might I suggest that a manual overhead traveling bridge with say a 2 tonne electric block on it would be a great addition to the shop.
Nice work, I feel your pain with the bore welder. Been doing it for a few years, but still get challenged now and again .😀. My tip would be to take the gas and heat to burn out the grease form between the laminated plates before you even set up. Keep up the great videos.
wow.... the concept of .....If......then ....is alive and well... your understanding that a solution exist keeps you pointed in the right direction
You hang right in there! Good work, enjoyed your work ethic. Thanks for your time and talent.
your honesty is really appreciated !! the job looks great11 thanks very much !!!
