That picture of three generations at the end of your vids tugs at the heart every time! I can relate: my father, retired automotive mechanic of his business for 35 years, now 87; my older brother, automotive mechanic, took over the business and still going at 65; myself, industrial mechanic with 10 years left until retirement. Your vids are awesome, learn something every time I watch one!
I would highly recommend insulation on the ceiling. Otherwise, it will rain in there a few times per year when it's cooler outside and the humidity is up. I have a building just like this and came out one day to find my lathe and milling machine were soaking wet!
Those Align RC helicopter shafts are hardened steel. They need to be as the are the main rotor shaft. If you use soft steel, the bearings will wear into the shafts and cause control issues. Also if they are not case hardened they will eventually bend or warp due to flight loads or minor Mis-handing .
I have a Carolina Carport too, its 24 x 40. If you intend on using this for shop space, look into getting foam insulation sprayed, its a lifesaver. I found someone locally who sprayed foam 1.5" thick under the roof and on the walls. I temporarily installed a small 600 BTU window ac unit (I'm acquiring parts for a 2 ton system), guess what? That little boger keeps the shop cool if I don't open the doors too often. And that's in South Mississippi!
Very nice. Align is a decent helicopter.... I'm a little surprised he didn't want to stay hollow shafted... Usually you want to avoid anything that adds weight to an aircraft.... but without knowing anything else, maybe he has plenty of power, and it doesn't matter.... Well done.
I’m curious why the customer didn’t opt for hollow rod for that power train shaft. It’s heavier and if it’s eccentrically located on the drone the gyro will have to be recalibrated and if there is a prop strike it will transfer more torque to the drive mechanism and probably damage it more. It’s more rotating mass, in other words.
Not a drone, but a medium sized RC helicopter. It'll be centrally located and the mass will only serve to stabilize. You're technically correct about the shaft transferring more energy due to its mass but typically this means stripped delrin gears...sort of a mechanical fuse in the event of a crash.
I Had one of those buildings put up a couple years ago. The two guys put it up in about 6 hrs. 12x20 fills up quick. I built a loft in mine for extra overhead storage
Those guys sure work quickly, nice to see they were using Abom sized tools as well. For lighting, I think LED lighting would be good. It has plenty of light, but is very cheap to run.
18:42 - your holes are off by 90 degrees. The single hole should be on the same plane as the hole closest the the center of the shaft, not the furthest to match the existing part.
@@M_a_t_t75 The shaft is for an Align 550 (its etched on the original shaft) helicopter main shaft. The only critical(ish) holes are the two at right angles to one another at one end. These are for the main blade holder and flybar holder which need to be at 90 degrees. Though many pilots dispense with the flybar these days using electronic stability control. So although he had them at 90 degrees it is possibly not important to the customer. The hole at the other end is a drive pin for a gear so its positioning isn't important.
I’m pretty big into RC helicopters and drones and I’m surprised he wasn’t worried about the weight. I mean, I have a 8 rotor that can pick up about 65lbs and I’m still shaving off weight wherever possible. Good work!! Congrats on the new building. You’ll love it. I thought a 60x90 shop would be plenty big, a year later I added on lol.
the new shed looks good, i'd double check the order to make sure it's you who was in the wrong. make 'em give a bit of a discount if it was their fault. not that it's a big deal.
That building will be a great addition to the property. As I watched you explain how you will be moving everything from the little white wooden shed to the new building, it occurred to me that if you pour the part of the driveway that is between them, you will have a much easier time moving the contents. Cut a door in the back and use your pallet jack. Then tear down the old building and pour the rest of the concrete.
The shop is awesome and love all the equipment, support equipment and tooling. This is something I've wanted to do for years. Great video as akways. Thanks
FYI that's the main shaft for an Align 550 R/C Helicopter. The holes are for pins for the rotor head at one end and the main gear at the other, it does not matter if they line up top and bottom as you say but you should copy the piece exactly and you're holes are 90 degrees off, not that it matters. Being hollow is not so important because the shaft is at the center of gravity. Not being hollow would also allow for more engine power and aerobatic performance. Nice job on a massive lathe :)
The garage looks just fine with the horizontal siding. 👍. And it’s the same size as my whole workshop and garage - and I run a large lathe, smaller mill and welding gear in there - as well as store one of my cars!
NICE building, you should connect the two with an enclosed breezeway or hallway of sorts. Then you wouldn't have to go outside in the weather to get something or put it away. Enjoy, you earned it!
Sooo, cool to see you making custom precision parts for another cool hobby I enjoy. As far as the shafts you usually machine this is very small, but for a RC helicopter the size of this shaft means its a large model, probably with a custom gas turbine power plant. Very interesting stuff, wish the owner could provide pics of the completed repair, that would be very interesting.
The good of the land Justin has got a new Mr.Cool AC. for his new shop. I thought that was awesome after you got yours. It would be nice if you could put your RV in there. looks great Adam congrats
Maybe he didn't care about the hollow shaft. But i would have done it for him. I know that with Drones weight is everything. But i get that it is a rush job so i understand your choice. and it's great that someone like you are there to help when others cant or wont. That's why ur the man Abom. Thanks for a great episode. and congrats with the new garage. it's a ducey. 😊🤘
Adam, I am jealous. My brother, who lives in Bonifay, asked me to machine him some prop hubs for his drone on my mini lathe (more of a micro lathe.) I see this video and I am reminded that I still haven’t got the job done. Dealing with a work holding issue and things get off kilter when I flip the part around. Jealous of how skilled you are. Next time I drive from Washington state to Carrabelle , I would love to stop by. if that’s ok?
27:45 Yea Adam is the smart one with earplugs, the guy cutting will get hearing damage 100% sure from that since cutting big flapping aluminium parts like this is EXTREMELY loud! And he is like half a foot from it.
my brother in law just put up a building like yours. couple things we ran into. you will need some ventilation and we found that water leaks in around the base. the metal tubing needs to be sealed . we couldn't get to the outside because the siding overlaps it. so we had to do the inside .i didn't like that approach but its all we could do after the building was up. good luck with yours
He did say they sealed his. But ventilation and/or insulation is a must at least here in Missouri. The rapid change in temperature causes condensation on the roof and walls and it would literally rain inside the building here.
I don't know if we can get them this far south but Menard's has some awesome shelving and storage stuff for garages. Modular workbenches and cabinets and stuff. Might be worth taking a look.
Nice work on the shaft. I'd like to have a building go up as quickly as yours did. It's so bright inside with the white material. I built my garage with stick lumber 31 years ago.
i'm so sorry i dissed you for selling out. You have the need to make a living and you have the courage to show yourself as who you are! I have learned much about fundamental machining. I admire you my friend
Occasional sponsorships help me pay the bills and allow me to continue content creation. It’s easy to sit back and call people sell outs unknowing what it’s like walking in their shoes each day. I get up and work each day just like the next guy.
It’s really hard to get what you actually want. I think the shed came out great and I love your attitude on the problems. Isn’t it great to have a place to put your stuff ;)
I don't own a lathe. Even if I had the room and desire I haven't the money to do it right. I just watched one of the best infomercials I've ever seen, pitched by a great product spokesman. I want one of those Edge indicator mounts! Adam you could sell ice machines to Siberians! Great job and great project!
I have a surface cleaner and it works great on any surface, wood, concrete, brick and asphalt. Works on walls too, gets a little heavy after awhile but it makes up for using a nozzle as far as time goes. Really good on wood fences even with a gap in the boards. Best way is to dampen the area and use some bleach on the surface letting it soak for a few minutes the us the surface cleaner. I use about 1 quart of bleach to 3 quarts water. A lot of mildew will be removed and make the surface look new even by just hosing it off and no pressure.
Love that hat ABOM79 dude, I use to make those cabinets here in Louisville and loved welding those up. If you have one of those cabinets I can guarantee you that cabinet will out last you. As long as you don't abuse it.
That indicator holder is made of aluminum yes, but it's anodized, aluminumoxide is what standard sandpaper is made our of. Not that I think it would damage your lathe, but it's probably harder.
I would at the bare minimum insulate the ceiling. Spray foam is the best because moisture will not form between the metal and the insulation. I’ve had those buildings and big temperature or humidity changes causes the ceiling-to sweat.
Shaft is likely for a scale helicopter built around an aerobatic frame. Lots of new heli designs try to lower the head closer to the airframe for better maneuverability. For scale builds, the goal is realism and lots of custom parts have to be made. Real cool to see something from a familiar hobby show up on your channel :)
I just looked at Carolina Carports. Obviously they know what they are doing. Given that you live in hurricane alley, I personally would like to see some diagonal bracing on the walls. The only thing keeping the walls from racking is the width of the sheathing. I realize I am ignorant about the strength of that sheathing to resist racking, and Carolina Carports is expert. But if it was me, I would brace the walls.
Hi Adam, The shrimp sure looked good. I noticed that helicopter shaft was for an Align helicopter. Have you thought about some closed cell spray foam for the ceiling? Might help keep the interior a little cooler and will also waterproof the ceiling.
Nice building! Everyone needs more storage, hence rental storage areas every 5 miles across America. When power washing dirty areas like the brick stairs, it can be helpful to kinda pre-soak the area with a cleaner. I swear by exterior bleach & tsp (2 cups / an 1/8th a cup ) mixed with water ( 3 - 3.5 gallons). Works best with warm/hot water & in the sunshine if possible.
I like D2 because when you are done with your lathe work, you heat it up dull red and drop it in cold water and it hardens to a rockwell of HardAsF*** which is awesome. It also is close to stainless in corrosion resistance.
OMG those shrimp. I recently did a high-heat cook after many months of cooking on my pellet grill (all my friends have a pit barrel cooler like you, I stick with the pellet pooper). I forget how much I enjoy cooking with charcoal.
Good thing the drill rod was used instead of his 1018. Looks like it may be for a 700. I'd be weary of any flying outside of hovering with a 1018 shaft.
Looks like dude has lost some weight. Been following for years man, lookin good. And the machine work is top notch as ALWAYS from this gentleman. Keep up the awesome videos man.
Opps on the stoop. Out Of The Woods had his steel building interior of roof closed cell foam sprayed. It really helped with ending dripping condensation, and insulation factor. That might be a cool addition to your new garage.
The garage is great. Nothing makes you work faster than having a camera watching you lol. Paint the floor Adam. Few good coats of epoxy light grey it will look hot.
That picture of three generations at the end of your vids tugs at the heart every time! I can relate: my father, retired automotive mechanic of his business for 35 years, now 87; my older brother, automotive mechanic, took over the business and still going at 65; myself, industrial mechanic with 10 years left until retirement. Your vids are awesome, learn something every time I watch one!
I think the mix of vertical and horizontal siding actually looks very artistic.
Thanks
I would highly recommend insulation on the ceiling. Otherwise, it will rain in there a few times per year when it's cooler outside and the humidity is up. I have a building just like this and came out one day to find my lathe and milling machine were soaking wet!
instaBlaster.
Those Align RC helicopter shafts are hardened steel. They need to be as the are the main rotor shaft. If you use soft steel, the bearings will wear into the shafts and cause control issues. Also if they are not case hardened they will eventually bend or warp due to flight loads or minor Mis-handing .
drill rod can be cased hardened
brian whittle drill rod should be fully hardened and tempered. It does not need case hardening as the carbon content is there in the metal already
The horizontal siding looks great!
I literally survive on these SNS’s every Saturday. Easily theeee most anticipated part of my week
I have a Carolina Carport too, its 24 x 40. If you intend on using this for shop space, look into getting foam insulation sprayed, its a lifesaver. I found someone locally who sprayed foam 1.5" thick under the roof and on the walls. I temporarily installed a small 600 BTU window ac unit (I'm acquiring parts for a 2 ton system), guess what? That little boger keeps the shop cool if I don't open the doors too often. And that's in South Mississippi!
I think the horizontal siding looks good Adam, I wouldn't fret over a mistake being made, it's nice to have things different, you learn more from it.
Both the machining and the garage building were great entertainment and education. Thanks.
It's good to see good things happening for good people. Oh, that shrimp looked goooood!
Very nice.
Align is a decent helicopter.... I'm a little surprised he didn't want to stay hollow shafted... Usually you want to avoid anything that adds weight to an aircraft.... but without knowing anything else, maybe he has plenty of power, and it doesn't matter.... Well done.
This is your signature intro music!!!
DON'T CHANGE IT!!!
I GET ALL WARM AND FUZZY WHEN I HEAR YOUR THEME MUSIC AND I'M ALMOST 74!!!
That music has become and SNS staple
Variety is the spice of life. Give the next shed a siding 45° to the right and then 45° to the left :)
Thanks for another great SNS!
Very good of you to do small fast service jobs like this. Makes you a Great person
Mr Booth, Thank you for making these videos. They make my day and I deeply appreciate your time and effort.
Glad to hear you enjoy
Having siding that doesn’t match exactly is just one of those things that happens. The new building looks great!
Awesome new building! It's amazing how you've developed your site through the years. So well planned and executed. Nice job Adam!

@@brendanredler3666 Interesting about the gear material. Good info.
I'm just happy to see I'm not the only one with a parts washer and hand wash sink outdoors....
I Had one of those buildings put up a couple years ago. The two guys put it up in about 6 hrs. 12x20 fills up quick.
I built a loft in mine for extra overhead storage
Lots of overhead in mine 👍🏻
Nice job on the machining of the shaft Adam. Your property is looking great with the building upgrade!

18:42 - your holes are off by 90 degrees. The single hole should be on the same plane as the hole closest the the center of the shaft, not the furthest to match the existing part.
So you know for sure this matters?
@@grntitan1 no... But "matching the existing part" would lead me to believe the hole locations should match. It's a mistake for sure though.

holy fuck brother every video you look healthier and healthier 💪💪👍👍
Great to see it done. The shrimp looked very good.
Horizontal looks good. Fits with the big door lines!!
FYI that's the main shaft for an Align 550 R/C Helicopter.

a standard shaft costs about $26, how much did the one you made him cost all up roughly? I realize that custom parts will cost a lot more :)

Might want to epoxy that new floor rather than seal it. Its the prefect time, while the building is empty.
Awesome to have the extra building space!! Big congrats on all your shop progress!
Thanks Brian 👍🏻
Classic ToT shot with the beach bar tune whilst the guys assemble your new garage, ace

That shaft is for a collective pitch helicopter for anyone interested.. the ones they fly upside down and do crazy things with.
The cleaning of the concrete works very well.
I have one of those buildings and I've had no troubles, it should do you a fine job!
The garage looks handsome with the horizontal panels, better than vertical.
Nice storage unit Adam. You could drop my whole shop in there 7 times. Thanks for sharing. regards from the UK
Maybe he didn't care about the hollow shaft. But i would have done it for him. I know that with Drones weight is everything.

It's a 6# copter, and the through hole would make about a 4g difference. Too tiny to be a factor.
Nice job as usual Adam and I am excited for your new metal building....it looks great....Congrats!!!
That is a great shop building, they did a very good , fast quality build IMHO. Your looking good Adam, hard work'n man!!

He did say they sealed his. But ventilation and/or insulation is a must at least here in Missouri. The rapid change in temperature causes condensation on the roof and walls and it would literally rain inside the building here.
The bottom tubes were sealed to the concrete with caulking. I’ll probably go around the inside and apply another bead just for good measure.
I don't know if we can get them this far south but Menard's has some awesome shelving and storage stuff for garages. Modular workbenches and cabinets and stuff. Might be worth taking a look.
Those steel buildings go up much faster than wood ! I used to fly helicopters and I was always bending the blades shafts 👍
Ah the joys of living in Florida. I lived there for three years and hated the moss/fungus/crud growth you had to deal with a couple of times per year.
Adam, something about an Abom size garage just makes a Man have a better day thanks for sharing.!.!.!.
Noticed earlier, no gutters on the buildings? Maybe a little roof section between the building? Nice to store stuff that can be in open air!
Awesome work on the shaft. Also the new storage garage is very nice. The place is really shaping up.
A lot of good things are going your way Adam!
I'm happy for you !
Nice job on the drone shaft.
Nice garage dude. Now I want one.
Congratulations Adam! Looks great! Just wish I had an accessible back yard
Power washer with the turbo tip makes an excellent weed wacker especially along a wire fence. Try it.
Nice building going up. I wish the sup on the job would require ear and eye protection for the young 'uns!
Nice work on the shaft. I'd like to have a building go up as quickly as yours did. It's so bright inside with the white material. I built my garage with stick lumber 31 years ago.
Adam, as always it is pleasure to watch your videos. And those shrimps look very nice :) Greetings from Poland!
That's a fine looking shed.
i'm so sorry i dissed you for selling out.
You have the need to make a living and you have the courage to show yourself as who you are!

This is main rotor shaft for a T-REX helicopter. Nice to fly as well! Great job Adam. As usual!
It’s really hard to get what you actually want. I think the shed came out great and I love your attitude on the problems.
Isn’t it great to have a place to put your stuff ;)
I wish I had these HSS turning tips back when I was first learning machining at my local tech college. Ahh, the good ol days.
Another great show. Progress looks good and feels good. Congrats on the new building.
Adam - the garage looks good. You can never have enough storage space. Once you fill the garage, you might need another garage!!
Next upgrade will be the new shop.
Making money, spending money and food for the soul all in one video, excellent stuff Adam.
I love your videos! I want to thank you for giving us your time. I know these videos you do take a lot of it.
I bought that exact same surface cleaner last year. That thing really works great
I don't own a lathe. Even if I had the room and desire I haven't the money to do it right. I just watched one of the best infomercials I've ever seen, pitched by a great product spokesman. I want one of those Edge indicator mounts! Adam you could sell ice machines to Siberians! Great job and great project!
😂 Well at least I know one of my viewers enjoys seeing the tools being shown in the videos 👍🏻
60 bucks is not too bad with an indicator no less
I saw that indicator and immediately bought one! Thanks Abom!
Got yourself a nice Abom shelter there Adam.
Building looks nice with the horizontal metal siding. Glad to see you fulfilling your dreams Adam.
Cheers from B.C.
I have a surface cleaner and it works great on any surface, wood, concrete, brick and asphalt.

Everything looks great Adam. All I can say is shrimp, shrimp, shrimp, shrimp. PRAWN! Cheers bro!
I think I've seen you make shafts very close in size to that before... If you convert millimeters to inches.
That indicator holder is made of aluminum yes, but it's anodized, aluminumoxide is what standard sandpaper is made our of. Not that I think it would damage your lathe, but it's probably harder.
Congratulations on your new building. Love your mill and lath work keep up the great videos.

I was wondering why he wanted a longer main rotor shaft, but I haven't thought of a scale model since I'm basically only into 3D.
BINGO! I missed this comment when I was replying above. We said almost exactly the same thing.
Always enjoy watching your videos Adam thank you from South Africa
Vijayant Govender me too also SA 🇿🇦
Congratulations on the new shed, I know how much they mean to us... Enjoy.. 👍

Hi Adam,
The shrimp sure looked good. I noticed that helicopter shaft was for an Align helicopter. Have you thought about some closed cell spray foam for the ceiling? Might help keep the interior a little cooler and will also waterproof the ceiling.
Thew man that taught me the importance of precision couldn't make a square pad. I would never have expected that. :)
