You can't beat polyurethane mounts. Happy new year Stu and fellow subscribers
Happy new year!
I am not a welder but it’s interesting to see how you are developing that skill It’s something I am wanting to learn
That lube is similar to Acculube LS-10. I love the stuff. I find it less messy as well compared to using a cutting oil. LS-10 Smells better then oil. It is Vegetable based.
Those are the same engine mounts I’ve used. When you get around to installing, you may want to initially set so the prop shaft is a tad bit high in the shaft log. These mount do settle quickly, most of it in a day or so. Check hight adjustments again in a week, then two months, a year and finally every two years. Most of the time you will find all you need to do is raise the two equally that carries the most weight, the one’s under the engine. On second thought looking at a previous video it looks like all your mounts may have similar weight sharing ( not like mine).
Thanks, Stu, for the vids and the best wishes. Happy New Year to you, too.
Happy New Year!
Its was good to see you had eye protection on when you were cutting on top of your propane tank. lol safety first, "my wife said when she was watching it with me "Honey he is completely oblivious ,in his shop just like you are " ... ouch ! I mean I set one little fire in a pile of rags on the floor while cutting a wheel bracket off an Equipment Cart awhile back , happy New Year .
Who hasn't had the occasional rag fire in the their workshop. ;) Happy New Year!
You're like a movistar, every time the camera angle changes you got different clothes on.
Keep up the good work and a Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! :)
OK heres the deal, there are different lubes and coolants for different applications. for tapping, boring, and reaming use cutting oil. if your surface grinding or drilling you want to use water with a rust inhibitor such as water soluble oil or i like antifreeze. mix it thin. blew thought 3.00 plate with 1.750 silver/demimg on bridgeport on auto feed. I'll even us it on a roughing mill.
I guess the New Year is upon Australia, so a "have a Happy New Year Stu" is proper.
Happy New Year! :)
danger Marine notification popped up 50 seconds ago, I'll bring the rubbish in later, lets see what stu has been upto.......
Nice Protective Footware @8:41 - 8:50
"How hard can it be?" ... famous last words by General George Armstrong Custer at The Little Big Horn.
Stu...How the hell are you going to know when its New years when none of your clocks work...👍🍻...
If the clocks worked, they would be out of place in that shop.
Even the one on the boat stopped again...You know the clock above the old looking Guy Sabastian photo...😂...
You start drinking beer at 10:00 and don't stop till 2:00 AM. New Years ought to be in there somewhere and after 10:30 you won't care anymore.
Yes, that sounds right...👍🍻...
They work twice a day!
Happy New Year to all!
Happy New Year! :)
Excited as a kid in a candy store with a pocket full of dollar bills...Hey, when was the last time you bought a piece of candy for a quarter ?? Getting close to power plant install..great stuff. Thanks Stu and Happy Newer Year to you all !!
Getting close. Happy New Year! :)
I consider myself a fairly handy guy, but I have NEVER rolled out of bed and thought to myself, "I think that I'll fabricate new motor mounts for a 38 year old engine that I will be 100% reliant on while out at sea. Oh, and what the hell, I'll chop them 40mm to boot!""
Happy New Year
Happy New Year! :)
oh yes always try to keep a gas bottle under the sparks from the plasma cutter
HNY! Great vid
Shouldn’t the lock nut be under the engine mount? Happy new year!
No. Happy New Year!
Stu were you wearing bike pants for a moment there?
The boat is coming along great, Stu. Have you thought of having a spare belt or two hanging near the drill press??
Happy New Year!
Yes, I ordered three when I got the new ones.
Wish I knew about hitting your Amazon link before ordering anything from Amazon last week.
I just ordered a set of 9mm Makarov " Snap Caps " for my Makarov Pistol.
I will remember to tap your site before my next Amazon purchase.
Oh.....sorry the only way you can own a handgun down there is if you are a crook.
Appreciate you using the link when you can. It's funny, a few people in the US told me they thought that Australians can't own handguns, but that isn't true, there are just strict checks and licensing laws. Paul my friend owns several legally. I'm glad we have these laws though as we have a lot less shootings than the US, they really do work!
Happy new year to Stu and his family, and to all the viewers of this great channel.
Happy New Year!
Oh god, is this how I'm spending New Year's Eve hahaha
Yes, I'm thinking the same thing. LOL
At least you're not installing a washing machine with a busted hand and half the tools.
@@Jay-ln1co What a coincidence, I've got one hand and busted tools, installing mine tonight.
I have a similar problem, I'm drinking beers 🍻 but I've got two hands and only one mouth.
??? Safety glasses...love the bare feet. Leon
I’m happy that I am not alone there’s 85 other people with nothing to do New Year’s Eve but watch stu weld engine mounts anyway happy new year stu to you and your family love your videos always learning thanks pal
Ronald Smeaton we are plenty, happy new year
Now there are more like 1,800 folks with nothing else to do on New Year's Eve.
Happy New Year!
Hi Stu, just finished watching Brupeg latest when you popped up. Engine mounts look awesome, really robust and well made. Thanks for sharing and all the best for the coming year. Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍🖖🐶🦴🐔😎🛥⚓
Thanks mate. Happy New Year!
Looks like a haircut soon. That confirms progress here. We measure by haircuts Mate.
Stu’s next video title ! “ Why I spent New Years 2020 in emergency “. I’m a boilermaker and I will never weld or fabricate in bare feet, I get enough burns there even with boots
Well he did have a grinder bite him in the shins in another video.
Watching the news about the terrible bush fires in NSW. Hope you and your neighbours are safe.
Gas bottle under the plasma cutter? Love it!
What about the bare feet! lol
@@daedster1 bare feet, he had plastic wrap on the counter to cover his feet, at least that's what he commented on in another vid, haha!
@@danieloliver20 lol
once you get the puddle correct try and concentrate on keeping an even speed and correct angle, trying to react to fluctuations as you see them usually just puts you behind the 8 ball because your reacting to stuff thats already happened, it may feel counter intuitive but it produces better results. its especially noticeable with TIG welding but applies to all processes including oxy and plasma cutting. once worked with a bloke who used a piano timer to time the dabs when TIG welding.i use much faster dabs so it wasn't for me ,but it worked well for him he got very nice results.
Interesting, thanks for sharing that, it does make sense.
Excellent drill press chuck key valve mod. Happy New Year to all.
I see OSHA isn’t allowed in your shop either 😂😂😂
Not at all!
Happy new year Mr Allen!!!!!! May all your detroit dreams come true 😂
Shop maintenance : always have spare parts for your equipment, because break down of your equipment will alway happen, you can order more parts as you continue working. Time is Money even when it's your own projects.
"Tell ya story walking" one of the great aussie quotes, wonderful to hear it...
Happy New Year, Stu! Nothing better than a Dangar Marine video to start the day! :)
Even a very small pilot hole would make a big difference to your hole quality (roundness, finish, location...), and would be easier on your press. Keep in mind that the center of the drill is not turning as fast as the outside edges. Matter of fact, the exact center isn't turning at all relative to the metal. Without a pilot hole, you're trying to push the tip thru the metal, requiring significant force. A small, perhaps 4mm dia, pilot hole would help a lot. No need to step up, just go 4mm then 18mm.
Keep up the great work, sir!
Yes, I'll try experimenting with different size pilot holes to see which works best on the next ones. The other thing I like about no pilot hole is that you can fill the start of the hole with lube and it won't just run out the pilot hole.
I'm a fabricator in the US, so I really enjoyed this video. I use plasma cutters pretty often. For thick materials like you are cutting...I'd just run it wide open and adjust the speed to keep it from blowing back. Also, you are right about running through the end of the work to keep the tip cleaner. Keep up the nice work, and ignore all the safety nuts. In the US, must of us who are self employed and don't have a Safety Manager to watch us, work the same way as you...well, except we wear shoes. :)
Thanks mate. I'll give it a go at max amps next time and see how it goes. Happy New Year! :)
Made me laugh out loud: "Then I can stand it up too.." :) :) Very handy!
Keep up the great work, maybe add a little more safety in your projects.. HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉 🤙🇺🇸🙏💸
Hey Stu, that drill lubricant is probably the best stuff you can use. Boelube was invented by Boeing Aerospace for drilling holes in airplane parts. Keep up the good work!!! Oh and one observation....boots man boots....😂😂👍
Happy New Year from Denmark :)
Murphy's Law. Gotta love it.
Thanks for the video.
Great video mate, but hey man it's well past spring cleanup time. Your oh&s work place is a bomb waiting to happen. Plus love your work boots mate.
Hi Stu, I'm not pro welder but just on the subject of welding I noticed at 8:55 while you were tacking up, you held the welder clamp with both hands. While this is fine is does limit the amount of control over the tip of the rod especially on a new rod. If you try and hold the clamp with your right hand and hold the actual rod with your left hand as close as possible to the weld pole as your glove can take. I find at helps and awful lot. Also being in a comfortable position I find is so important to a good weld. Keep up the great work Stu. Love the project
Grinding and welding barefoot. Absolute legend.
On your drilling and pilot holes, for small sizes like 3/4, just do one small pilot drill the same size as the chisel point of the drill (the bit that doesn't really cut). Drills only grab when the step up in size from pilot to final is too small.
Hey Stu, I was wondering, How are the people close to your island making out with those fires? I have been following this and just feel terrible about the loss of homes, peoples business and of course the devastation of all the wildlife. It was a heartbreaking story hearing of the people that were actually pushed to the sea. Our hearts go out to the people of Australia and hope nothing effects you where you live. Doug Smith, San Antonio Texas.
Aerospace industry "That's me." LOL
Pilot holes make the work easier, less stress on equipment and quicker cutting.
I grind my own bits, and the edge will last longer with a pilot hole.
The harder the material, the more you need a pilot, mild steel may allow for a one shot drilling process, but, harder material will not be so easy.
That plasma cutter just doesn't have the power to cut 10mm plate cleanly. I used to cut 12mm plate with a 100 amp plasma set at about 70 amps. It cut cleanly and fast
I like the new chuck handle.
Happy New Year Stu , love your work but you need to have a haircut and shave your now looking like your workshop. Ha Ha
Stew Love your chuck key
I’m now renaming you danger stu instead or danger stu, if I hosed sparks on an lpg bottle or oxy set I’d be now residing on the moon, keep up the great work mate
The Ausie's Aint afraid of a bit of LP Gas. They Made of Tougher Stuff, as They, Grind & Weld Steel, Bare Foot! LOL Side Note, He must have noticed it at some point, as he moved the tank in the next shot. Happy New Year to all
I noticed that too. But hey, the explosion and 'launch' would have been filmed and would probably go viral later. Would help pay for the funeral costs I guess? :-)
Put a big smile on my face when I saw that. He must be my kinfolk. I do stuff like that all the time. :)
Don't think its in bad taste BUT.. why are there so many fires down under?
did you spot the flip-flops/thongs/shower shoes :-)
LOL we call our Wyandotte - Dotty as well! She has never been broody. Its always our Astralorpe that wont get off the eggs. We put her in chicken jail for a few days and she snaps out of it for a little while.
We are all imaginative when it comes to naming chickens aren't we! ;)
@@DangarMarine LOL I just hatched a new one about 3 hours ago. We named her- HENNIFER - Lord I need to go to a punnery
If you are going to be doing larger holes get a Annular cutter with a Morse taper adapter
thanks Stu.last one this year,awesome as always.Love the pigeons
Hi Stu, nice looking solid mounts. Looks like they pivot a bit too. Some of the angles on the old ones must be there for clearances inside the engine bay. Hopefully it all hooks up well when lowered into the boat. Wouldn't want to hold up the crane guy for sure. Love the chickens. My mom raised them when I was little and would go with her to the feed store. Loved the smell of the animal feeds
Thanks Tim. I figure even if it doesn't all fit perfectly I should be able to let the crane guy go and deal with it insitu. Animal feed is a nice comforting smell. :) Happy New Year!
Lol you kill me stu.ear defenders safety glasses, mask,........yada yada yada.and lol bare feet.#swagman 😂 happy new year
Happy New Year! :)
8.45 - Good to see you wearing your best welding/grinder undies - saftey 7th!
They were my special welding undies. Never failed me yet Steve!
Stu: I'm going to weld stuff today
Adrian: I'm rebuilding a Detroit today
Me: I made cookies while watching...
Mmmm, cookies... :)
For good safety put some boots on sir
Thank you for your video’s
What? I always grind and weld in my skivvies...
"Grinder and paint made me the welder I am." That cracked me up. So true.
Nice job stu
Bookmarked your Amazon page for my future purchases.
Thanks Tony! :)
Those safety shoes again when grinding 😲😲 You should provide a disclaimer on safety 🤣🤣
Having personally rebuilt a few Jabsco pumps for marine use The "extra" part may be for a sister (similar) model that you don't need for yours. Check with your supplier or Jabsco directly. I've been running in the Saint Clair river bordering Michigan, USA and Ontario, Canada for the last 50 years and seen this type of thing before.
Yes, I have noticed quite a few kits come with parts to cover multiple models so not all bits are need for an individual pump.
Here's a good tip for your welding...
Pre-heat your work.
The Boeing Lube helps keep the MIG torch nozzle from fouling. You can also apply a thin film to the work piece to help reduce spatter from sticking. I even put a very lite film on my welding helmet viewing lens.
Will give it a go.
Thanks for another great vid Stu, nearly choked on my Bundy n coke when I saw the sparks near gas cylinder, very quite NYE for me but glad you uploaded this vid ...Look forward to your 2020 vids ....
Happy New Year!
A critical belt breaks and Stu doesn't swear %^&# like a Sailor? He just casually sources a new %$&* belt? I swear this man is not mortal :)
I did when I visited four stores and still couldn't find one the right size! ;)
Happy New Year, I hope enjoying your project, not so much working on it. The fires look grim from where I sit south of Miami Florida and I hope you and your loved ones are safe. More eddy!
Yes, was a bad day for the fires yesterday for sure. Happy New Year! :)
Happy New Year to you and yours Stu, may the new year hold many blessings for you and those you hold dear.
I started learning stick welding in 1972 in high school. It's one of the skills that has helped keep me employed all these years. AND I still learning new tricks.
At current time I work as a welder fabricator at a quarry but I end up doing many things including running a 5 yard loader or dump truck, or I could be turning a part with the lathe.
It's good to see you trying and learning new skills.
Happy New Year Kriss! I really love learning new things and welding is certainly something very handy to know how to do. Next up I would really love to learn how to use a lathe.
Happy New year to you and your family Dingo Stu. Please for the love of god move that gas bottle away from your plasma cutter. I choked on my coffee watching that this morning (new years eve) 😅😅great vids mate
Happy New Year! :)
you''re not alone Gold Whisperer! since we're almost in a new year (here) and Stu is already..... that clock in the shop, since it hasn't moved in ages, can you change it to 5 after 5 instead of quarter to? that way we know it's 5 o'clock somewhere, not that we need an excuse to drink but it's a good one! Another job off the checklist...that baby's gettin handy!!
Good thinking, I will do.
Barefoot, safety first. Don't know about you, but I'm from Suffolk, UK, and have plenty of extra toes to spare ;-)
I've lost five toes already but still have 12 left. ;)
Hi Stu
With regard to any “solid” lube, they work best if you dip the drill bit into them and fill the flutes. That way, as the bit heats up, the lubricant flows down into the piece you are drilling helping to keep everything cool and.....well.....lubed.
Cool, I'll give that a go.
Happy New Year Stu & Family :)
Please video the pump re-assembly if you can...would like to see that.
Happy New Year! Yep, I'll film the pump reassembly.
This my be obvious (so I apologize) but have you considered sharpening those expensive drill bits when they get dodgy? It would be cheaper, and having a sharp spare would end up being faster than taking the time to go buy one.
Just a thought. Cheers mate.
I have been sharpening them on a Tormek stone. I'm going to look up if there is a jig available to keen them locked into the correct angle and then maybe do a vid on that.
Stu, north of the equator you rarely see pet chickens. So, I have to ask - does each one have a name, or just your favorites? Also, can they learn to respond to commands, like dogs do? I realize that I am off topic (engine mounts), but you are the one who is turning the fowls into YT star performers - and to me they seem to be great candidates for petdom. 🐓🦆👍
We only have three so they all have names, and although they don't have a dogs command of language they will come when called. They also each have very distinct personalities. The best thing is they weed the garden, eat the spiders and insects and lay eggs too! :)
Should the lock nuts not be on the bottom, the load is pushing down and the single but could work it's way downwards.
Happy New year from Scotland.
The weight of the engine pressing down stops the bottom nut from rotating. As the top nuts are under no load they need to be a pair.
Hi Stu, hope you had a safe and happy New Year. We can see the smoke building outside, stay safe with your fire fighting, as of Jan 1. Five states of Australia are alight and the authorities have admitted there is no hope of putting them out before mother nature wants them out. Be extra careful this Friday, another 40 Deg C day with high winds.
Definitely has been bad fire weather. Happy New Year!
Stu, awesome channel! I found you about two months ago and have been catching up on the trawler restoration. Wow, I thought rusty car restoration was crazy. Keep up the good work and Happy New Year!
Thanks Ken, Happy New Year! :)
I've never seen engine mounts like the one's originally on your engine, the new ones you are using are common out here. The hole where the bolt for the engine mount needs to be a little bigger so the bolt moves freely through the hole. If you don't have any movement your not going to be able to trim out the engine as the bolts will be binding up. Welding is all about working the puddle sometimes I'm using two rods tig welding with 7018 the metal is too thin or a big gap. When you've burned 1000lbs or more of 7018 in the last couple decades it becomes second nature. My welds have been field tested in real world situations hundreds of tons of force applied to them. All stick welding I've only used a mig welder 3-4 times in 28 years of being around steel fab.
Good point about the binding as the angle changes. I'll get the die grinder onto them to make a small amount of clearance.
Thanks for the Amazon tip Stu, I'll save your store and then just go buy stuff from other places too. Like the safety specs too.
Thanks mate!
Always keep a roll of 'keyway belt' on hand, whether ashore or at sea. It will get you home and finish your tasks without having to run to the belt shop. 30 years as a master maintenance Tech taught me that, plus a few decades of sailing and motoring...
I'm definitely going to get some. Didn't know about it before this video.
Fireworks canceled time for some Danger Marine XD
Happy New Year!
yes the poors :( you know it’s because to his videos that I didn’t get rolled by a boat mechanic man in my country if I had listened I had to buy a new motor.
Spent many years as a welder, aside from grinding rute passes we only ground two types of welds. One that was in the way and those that looked like a dog turds
Same motor mounts I use on my 540 CI V8. With a 620 hp engine they have been totally reliable over the past ten years.
That's good to hear Roger. :) Happy New Year!
Yea I spent day making engine mounts for my boats engine (beta 90) now I spend my evening watching someone else doing it. How sad!
Ah, it's always fun to watching someone else do the work for a change. :)
I think a 10 gauge run should give you a tonne per inch strength, given no movement is possible in the joint, ie both sides welded. The reason we fully weld is to keep corrosion out, thats a good reason even for mounts
If it was me and it isnt, do a penetration run with a hot 10, then pad weld the undercut out at less amps
also be aware some rods are better than others, I like CIG Satincraft especially downhand.
its important that root run is clear of slag and dust, warm plate is better to weld on than cold.
Fill whatever craters you get on the ends with weld, again a hot 10, this because it doesnt get to run long filling a hole
radial drills are usually capable of not relying on pilot holes, if its clamped work it shouldnt move,
we could drill 3" but the thing was massive, like you could live inside it
centre punch the start to mark so the bit doesnt wander
best for the year
Good point, any gaps would definitely trap water and start to rust.
Stu: With resilient mounts, when doing the shaft alignment, you need to account for the mount deflection caused by the weight of the inboard shaft end, so that the stuffing gland is not required to act as a bearing. The mount company should be able to give you a procedure for doing this. Basically it involves centering the shaft in the stuffing gland and adding weight onto the end of the gear to mimic the shaft weight so the mounts deflect the right amount, then aligning shaft to gear, and then removing the weights and the shaft gland centering support. Greg
Heya Stu, love the chicken updates, gotta keep us in the loop on how the girls are doing. Great tips on the plasma cutter and welds as well, getting into a bit of that this year myself and it's nice to learn from others!
Happy New Year mate.
Thanks Michael, great to hear you are going to be getting into your own metal working. Will do some updates on her progress. :) Happy New Year!
It's all coming together😎
Slowly but surely!
That's the same lube we use on the 737 MAX. Only failed twice.
i like the safety shoes in workshop :-)
👍🏻 Wishing you and all there a peacefully prosperous 2020.
Happy New Year! :)
Happy New Year Stu and co, thanks for a compulsive channel. Hope you are safe from the fires.
Thanks Trevor, currently safe but it has been very bad fire weather lately. Happy New Year!
