Is there anything you dont have. Ha Ha. When you pulled that machine out and cut a new lens out for your speedometer was really cool. Love your videos, you always seem to find a way to repair things or build handy machines. Keep it up. Videos are great.
I'm more and more confused, haha, this man has some excavators, some trucks, a cnc machine, a workshop, does basically anything there's to do on an airport
Best way to do it for sure, at least for one-off parts. Unless you have a machine that will do 9k+ rpm spindle speeds at ~60 IPM feed (1500 mm/minute) AND not break endmills doing that, fire does amazingly well dressing the edges. Also...lots of coolant, because otherwise you melt the plastic, gum up the cutter, and it goes "snap!"
Hi Mattias, Hello from Texas. Cold here like Sweden! I used to drive a truck that has that type speedometer. When the dispatcher gave you your wok for the day you got a paper disc to install in the speedometer head, you opened it from the back and that piece of paper that is in there comes out. The paper is sort of carbon copy paper infused and the little pointers make a mark on the paper. You can see 2 of them inside the speedometer head at 01:41. They showed in my case engine rpms, vehicle speed, time, miles it drew an up an down line and every time it hit the top it was 5 miles, (or in your case kilometers) the graph showed when you were driving and when you stopped, so if you stopped 7 times it showed, Also when you open it to turn it in each night to get paid the head of the unit would put a little cut in the paper. So if you had a cut and then an hour later you had another cut they knew you took it out and did something then put it back in. Since it worked with the clock it was always turning with the clock and it showed what time you took lunch or got coffee. Merry Christmas!
In Germany these disks were used to witness that You did have Your mandatory breaks from driving and also that the speed limit wasn't overrun. Some other official information like registration number and distance counter start and finish were to put in by hand. You had to keep Your disks during the day, so when trucks were changed, You took Your daily disk from one to the next vehicle.
@@manfredschmalbach9023You also had to keep the disks for the past I don´t know how many times. Today they switched over to mostly digital devices, where each driver gets a personalized card on which the data is written. Not entirely sure if that is mandatory now or if in old trucks the paper disk is still allowed instead of retrofitting a digital system. Issue they found with the disks was that some drivers worked the allowed hours on one truck and afterwards switched to a different truck and more or less kept two sets of discs for the Police or the BAG (the German Federal Agency in parts comparable to the DOT, although not quite) to control. Those crards for the digital systems you have to apply for at the same office at your place of residence, you would get a new drivers license document from.

Hit the edge of the acrylic with a propane torch just a lick. Smooths the edges and makes it clear. Doesn't take much just a quick go round.

Nice fix! That would have driven me nuts too.

They had something similar, in my Dad's truck back in the fifties. For some reason they called it a "Dutch Clock".

Good job on the replacement glass/Lexan. You might want to fill up on diesel fuel. Your gauge shows almost empty! lol ;)
Loved the video. It would have been great to see you sanding thr edges of the acrylic.
Anyways, thank you and greetings from Portugal.
Straight to the point and well done. Hmmm that CNC could be well useful for making allot of things. I'll have to check pricing.. Another great vid !!
Awesome Mattias ! =) Am a big fan of you =) Thanks and love from Västergötland
Great videos 👌 Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Great result! ... like the speedo had a cataract operation ... nice work doc.
Hello from the Netherlands .
thanks for the video .
Sincerely, Hollandduck
Hello Hollandduck, thanks for watching!
Adorable dog. Let's see more of it!
Conditioner for the soul 😂 Dom här videorna är verkligen balsam för själen 👍 keep up the good work.
Yes also in german : Balsam für die Seele 😂
Very good…it seems It reflects very strongly
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work 👍😁, diesel clock was standing almost on zero you went to the pomp or had to Walk home?
brilliant...
Blev förbaskat bra det där! Också, bäst du blurrar regnummer på fordonen, annars har du väl snart nån stolle in på gårdsplan...
If the fuel gauge is working suggest you visit a diesel pump very soon!!
Somehow I wouldn’t be surprised if he had his own refinery in his back yard! 😂
👍👍👍
Är du från Sverige eller Norge?
Jag är från Sverige
@@M.BJOERNSTROEM ok sån man lastbil du har är vanliga i Norge och här se man dom knappt...
Visste inte att dom var mer vanliga där. Bra att veta om man behöver reservdelar sen!
@@M.BJOERNSTROEM Jo reservdelar behövs förr eller senare till allt... Själv kör ja hydrema från 86...
What a freakin weird speedometer that is.
A disk type tachograph. European logbook.
bra bra
You need fuel
