    I've been an engine builder and machinist since 1991 and pulled literally thousands of dowels.. all I've ever used is a screw extractor and a tap handle to pull them out .. 9 out of 10 come out damage free .. this guys making something simple more difficult than it really needs to be.

      Understand.
      In old engines it goes with ease.
      In the new Ktm engines it goes badly out.

      Pete I agree with you. Can also use a drill blank or shank of a drill bit the right size, put it in the centre of the dowel, clamp the dowel on the outside and pull it out. Done in seconds instead of making complicated tools on the lathe and milling machine.

    I had excellent results over the decades by threading a tap into the dowel and grabbing it with a slide hammer and giving it the tappidy tap tap.
    If it isn't hollow, drilling it and creating threads in it works, too.
    A pliers often works, too. Just don't be aggressive if you don't want to damage it. And if you do damage it a bit, that hasn't been much of a problem.

      how do you mean? I have dowel pins that have sheared off in the engine block, to where I can't get any grip on them at all. They are hollow however, so I am wondering if your method would work on them. I just dont understand what you mean by threading a tap and grabbing with a slide hammer. I'll try research it using the approach you've suggested.

      @paulstandaert5709 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@antiochiaadtaurum3786 hopefully I can clarify.
      Before I begin, keep in mind that one option is to drill them out. You will need to get new dowels, but they are shot anyway from the sounds of it.
      Of course, there are solid dowel pins and there are the ones that I referred to as hollow, like a really short piece of copper water pipe. I like to use a thread tap and create threads in the hollow dowel. The threads created should not be very deep--definitely not as deep as you would normally want to create when making threads. Sometimes the tap will bottom out and pull the dowel right out that way. Sometimes you can hit the tap from the opposite side once it is threaded in. I recommend a brass or aluminum hammer to reduce the risk of breaking the tap. Sometimes you can install a nut/washer on the tap with an even larger dowel that fits over the one you are removing to be used as a puller to remove the dowel. If a larger dowel isn't available, even a short piece of 3/4" copper pipe can work well.
      If none of that works, heat the aluminum housing with a mapp gas torch hard and grab the dowel with a vice grips and it would not surprise me if it literally falls right out.

    • @paulstandaert5709
      @paulstandaert5709 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I should also add that the slide hammer is used with an adapter to attach it to a vice grips. I thread the tap in, grab it with a vice grips / slide hammer combo and pull it right out. It USUALLY works, but some are much more stubborn and this won't work.

    No workie..
    Wound up ripping & tearing like an amateur for an hour and a half, then waiting a week for a $1.50 dowel.

    Со всем уважением. Но слишком сложно. Имея токарный станок, можно выточить новые направляющие, не потребуется фрезерных работ. В данном случае можно взять цанговый патрон для фрез и так же извлечь направляющие. Я обычно нарезаю резьбу подходящим метчиком и обратным молотком извлекаю направляющие. Видео кинематографичное.

    I might have to make one of those good job Paul. I'm tired of wrestling with dowel pins.
    For those who do not have a metal lathe use a drill to make the hole. Or if you don't want to drill and do all that stuff at the very least put a drill bit in the inside diameter of the dowel pin. One that fits nice and snug. Then duck tape the outside diameter of the dowel pin and then grip it with pliers it leaves a lot less damage to barely no damage.

    You can also take a wooden dowel and or a broom handle, (wood). Grind it down to a perfect fit, ID, tap it inside of whatever hollow pipe or tube you are trying to remove.
    This way the pipe, tube will NOT crush, collapse so you can use channel locks.
    Or a strap wrench to twist.
    Works every time.
    Also you can wrap some duct tape around the outside if you are trying to reuse whatever you are trying to remove.
    Better to buy new though.

    Simple way is use a thread tap inside the dowel and then use punch to hit it out
    Another easy way put something round inside of dowel then use vide grips to remove
    Also if damaged outside of dowel with pliers ect just file off burrs and refit into block/barrel upside down no worries
