When doing long format as required, viewers such as myself LOVE it when the creator watches through and writes down "Time Stamps" that can be offered *At the time the video goes up* so (just makimg up a randon example): 00:00:00 - 00:04:16 Project intro 00:04:17 - 00:07:48 Made a poor choice (lol) 00:07:49 - 00:11:32 Sorted how to pull the fat out of the fire 00:11:33 - 21:18:18 Source more materials from "Empire of dirt" and maybe have to buy 6 Torx Style cap-head screws - and wait 2 weeks to get them. etc. This is because, many of your viewers (such as myself) fimd your content very relatable - but can't always watch a longer video in less than 3-5 sittings. Having that index, my friend, will really DRIVE UP the number of FULL VIEWS" you get - and what with the time it takes to do all the filming - I honestly believe taking the time to watch through, and set a list of very accurate "time stamp indexes" - one time - will really make your content SHINE - because it's so easy for your viewers to find where they left off, and continue watching.
@MattysWorkshop - Give it a try. If it doesn't work to your favor, (or favour as the case may be), I'll refund you every penny you've paid me so far! 🤣
I’ve used brake wheel cylinder with its cup seals and plugs to push a broken rivet out of a shift fork down in a transmission. Used a bucket model high pressure grease gun that had a long hose so a helper could pump it for me. Worked one time and saved disassembling the machine, didn’t work the second time and I had to split that one and put shift fork in a press to get the rivets out. Cylinders were about 1” diameter x 2-1/2” long so pretty compact.
If a greese piston can tighten the tracks on a big excavater which is basically the same as what you have created you should have no problem pushing out a pin. The only thing that could give is the piston seal not having a backup ring but if it does its an easy fix. Soft rubber seals are the best for sealing pistons but being soft they can blowout, by putting a especial hard plastic backup ring to give support blowout is virtually eliminated. Don't worry about lengthy videos, I love them, it means I can sit down and have a good cup of tea while watching without having to select another video still having half a cup of tea left. You create some amazing stuff in your videos, thanks for spending the time to share.
Gday Derek, the ram has been and done the job with no worries at all, I am looking at doing a small modification at sometime and may add an extra seal, Really appreciate you watching and commenting, Cheers
Back in the day..... I removed locating pins in blind holes: drill, thread, install grease flitting in the pin, and jack the pin out with a grease gun.
Nicely done mate. Re the orings, they're easy enough to spec. For a dynamic seal like that, around 10-15% compression and 70-80% fill gets you the right seal. Then it's selecting a cross section, there, the bigger the better. Stops it twisting, gives more tolerance etc. So assuming that bore was 50mm, a 3x44 oring would be a good size. That then puts the bottom of the oring groove at 44.75mm ± 0.15mm, that gets you somewhere in the 10-15% mark. The oring cross sectional area for 3mm diameter is 7mm, so 70-80% fill means the grove area needs to be between 8.75 and 10mm². Assuming you hit the groove depth tolerance, that gives a width of 3.565mm ± 0.13mm Given the interdependency of the tolerances and that you cut the bottom and sides pretty much at the same time, it's better to aim for the groove depth to be on the shallower end, cause that gives you a bit more room for the width to go over. If you end up with a 44.9mm diameter groove the width can go out to 3.92mm and still have everything in spec.
What an incredible build and the performance of the end result was top notch. I’ve never seen a jack built like that using grease so its good to learn something new. Keep these great builds coming.
Actually, between the boring bar AND your new grease ram, you made yourself TWO really nice bits o' kit there, Matty! We should be able to give "10 likes out of 10!"
Proper sorry to hear about this setback, the missus had the same thing, only on her tonsil, about 15 years ago. She kicked it's arse, didn't even shut her up!!! Stick in there Matty, you'll soon be back on top.
Brilliant, designed off of the back of an idea, top quality, so how long before Curtis has you building and repairing Hydraulic cylinders for him😄. The video was not to long, great work.👍
Gday Don, don't think i'll be repairing cylinders any time soon, Thats a bit above my skill set mate, I try to keep the videos around 30 mins long but sometimes that dosen't work, Thanks for watching and commenting, Cheers
Hi Matty, be careful of the grease nipple check ball, you may get a situation when the cylinder is under pressure with no grease gun attached, I have seen the check ball shoot out like a bullet. As mentioned in previous comments, earthmoving equipment have a similar setup to apply tension to crawler tracks, I have a spare check valve if it is any use to you, it basically is an oversized grease nipple with a heavy duty check valve inside, a tapered end and a groove cut in the mounting thread allows relief of the grease when required by loosening.
Gday Robert, the ram has been used to do the job it was made for and it worked with no problem, if anything I could put a second o-ring in the piston, Thanks for watching, Cheers
I've recently started using coolant when parting of on my Myford ML7 and it has made a hell of a difference compared to cutting oil, nothing fancy just stuff in a spray bottle. Nice job mate.
i watch these when i am kicking back. so longer means more kick back time.. i am okay with that.... i am also retired and look forward to my kick back time, watching longer videos
We can see tremendous force on tracked skid steers etc where they use grease rams to tension the tracks. Hope you can provide some future feedback if your pal was successful at pushing the pin out in the restrictive space
Nice tool Matty, I like it. As a Dutchy living in the Netherlands I have sometimes troubles understanding your language, but the pictures tells everything.. Your electric woman (Madame Électricienne) from the other end of the world...
Nice build. If you know the PSI, you can calculate the force. Basically it is your input psi times the area of your piston. The force on the O ring is probably very small especially if you have a tight tolerance between your piston and cylinder. You should be able to apply some pretty massive forces with this setup. It is probably more than your hydraulic press could handle.
The latest cordless grease guns from Milwaukee and dewalt can go up to 10,000 psi. I imagine that’d give you more then enough oomph in that little ram :)
Excellent build and video! I have a Cat 225 excavator that uses a grease cylinder to tension the tracks; & have always been impressed with the power of grease. Knowing just how much force you could exert using a grease gun would be very interesting. Thanks!
Matty, You are a lot of fun to watch, and you're a great craftsman, your ideas are awesome Thanks for putting in all the work to video and share your work.
If you had been born during the Eqyptian"s era, I am betting they would have made you Pharaoh by moving massive weights with a simple looking tool (@@)! Matty, this concept totally floors this ole fart! Thx and hats off to you mate :-) Oh, the machining was awesome, and well filmed 👍👍
I made one like this .. to fill nitrogen in accumulator balls normally there is 200 bar in the bottle the accumulator should have 350 bar used the press to boost the pressure to 360 bar. ps it was also about ø40 mm ID. I was a bit nervous the first time I had to fill the balls .grease or hydraulic oil is the same. there are many forces in play good job bro
Great build Matty, it fit the request to an absolute tee! It looks like it could work well using oil or another fluid. Another thing would be a cordless electric grease gun application. A button head grease fitting might be easier to use (if you have access to them down there). Enjoyed the video very much, cheers mate! Best of all, you had fun doing it.
Gday, It has done the job it was made and it worked a treat, I dont have a electric grease gun but that would make it easier again, Thanks for watching mate, Cheers
Excelent job, it looks very nice. I'm wondering if it's feasible to build a pneumatic cylinder like this at home, for use in a hand rivnuts installation tool, but I think I'll give it a try.. 😉 If you succeeded, than I have some serious chance.. Cheers!
Great build Matty, like the old chromed piston rod for the ram 👌. Not sure on the O-ring size and fitting, ref tight fit on piston, and onky single/no back up, but proof will be in the pudding as they say. Dont think a brass fitting will take 10,000 psi ? Brilliant video thanks for sharing
Really incredible finishes you produce with that lathe! That grease ram is a smart idea! I'll bet you could build and sell those. I have seen a lot of YT mechanics struggling with stuck pins. I would like to hear a follow-up from your customer on how great it worked.
Gday, Its been and done the job and worked great, it pushed the pin out, not sure if id like to make and sell these, I like one offs, Thanks for watching, Cheers
you could actually add a pipe to it that went from the valve to the top above the piston so when you reased the valve the grease would go into the top half and push the piston down. good little jack, might make one myself for fun.
Matty, That is a ‘champion build’ mate 👏👏👏 Your mate is lucky to have someone like you who can ‘scratch’ build tools like that. Hope it works on his pin pressing job eh? And yeah…. I think ‘lending’ it to him is a great idea 😎 😂😂 Robert
I have done hydraulics for many years. the support must be at the top, the tolerance between the piston and the cylinder must not be too large .. normally there is a guide band on the piston
Hi Matty, I have a number of charts for O ring grooves both for metric and imperial O rings I could send you both for hydraulics and vacuum. Just remember O rings only displace they are not compressible.

00:00:00 - 00:04:16 Project intro
00:04:17 - 00:07:48 Made a poor choice (lol)
00:07:49 - 00:11:32 Sorted how to pull the fat out of the fire
00:11:33 - 21:18:18 Source more materials from "Empire of dirt" and maybe have to buy 6 Torx Style cap-head screws - and wait 2 weeks to get them.
etc.
This is because, many of your viewers (such as myself) fimd your content very relatable - but can't always watch a longer video in less than 3-5 sittings.

Thats akeen idea Matty. Using a grease gun to power the cylinder is really thinking outside of the box. Great execution of the idea.
Gday Joe, it’s a simple design but it works, amazing how much power is in a grease gun, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Back in the day..... I removed locating pins in blind holes: drill, thread, install grease flitting in the pin, and jack the pin out with a grease gun.

Track adjusters on a lot of heavy equipment use grease rams. You pump grease into the adjuster to tighten the tracks.
Actually, between the boring bar AND your new grease ram, you made yourself TWO really nice bits o' kit there, Matty! We should be able to give "10 likes out of 10!"

A really handy hydraulic ram, designed as you went along and looks great.
Thanks mate, Appreciate you watching and commenting, Cheers
Very interesting video Matty. I think for high pressures you need seals with backup. I am not sure o-rings will work, especially for 10000PSI.
Gday Robert, the ram has been used to do the job it was made for and it worked with no problem, if anything I could put a second o-ring in the piston, Thanks for watching, Cheers
Never mind the length of the video. This is great! Inspired, and inspiring!!!

Great build Matty, like the old chromed piston rod for the ram 👌.
Not sure on the O-ring size and fitting, ref tight fit on piston, and onky single/no back up, but proof will be in the pudding as they say.

you could actually add a pipe to it that went from the valve to the top above the piston so when you reased the valve the grease would go into the top half and push the piston down.

Gday Ralfy, No good being crook, You might need to flush the guts with a bottle of bourbon, Look after yourself mate, Cheers
@@MattysWorkshop A gallon of John Smiths would do it lol 💩
Great build Matty! Top job mate. Cheers from the UK Sam
Thanks Sam, appreciate you watching and commenting mate, cheers
G'day mate!!! You done good again. You have a good head on your shoulders mate. Learning a lot from you as well. Cheers
Gday, just have to think outside the box mate, thanks for watching, cheers
a good build,i woud most likely have done 2 or even 3 grooves for o-rings on that piston to stabilize it under pressure
Gday, So far the single o-ring has done the job but if it ever gives trouble its not hard to make a new piston with more grooves, Cheers
I have done hydraulics for many years. the support must be at the top, the tolerance between the piston and the cylinder must not be too large .. normally there is a guide band on the piston
Great little project.
Gday Bill, thanks for watching mate, cheers
Well done
Thanks very much Norm, Cheers
G'day,
A awesome build. And i enjoyed the longer video.
✌️Peace
Gday Kevin, glad you enjoyed the longer video mate, Cheers
Good one matty awesome build
Gday Brad, hope your going alright mate, cheers
it turned out good.
Thanks Dale, appreciate you watching mate, Cheers
Hi Matty, I have a number of charts for O ring grooves both for metric and imperial O rings I could send you both for hydraulics and vacuum. Just remember O rings only displace they are not compressible.
Gday Barry, sounds interesting mate, Cheers
@@MattysWorkshop I can email them to you, just need to know where.
@@barrycaudle9926 My email is ttmrj@telstra.com Cheers
probably worth putting spring to return the grease on the top side
I had no idea you could do that with a grease gun!
Great project!
Cheers from Canada
Gday, grease guns have quite a lot of power, I believe they are around the 10k psi so I lead to believe, cheers
My compliments sir nice build something new for me to build
That's sweet. you nailed it. I think I would have put 2 Orings in it. But maybe that's just overkill.
Gday, 1 o-ring seems to be doing the job so far mate, Cheers
