That is an old ESAB-Heath CNC machine made in Fort Collins Colorado. I used to Sell & Service them. You only have the x axis rails. You are missing the cradles and the expensive y axis bridge that contains motors and controls.
It wasn’t esab, it was blue not yellow ( the y-axis/control box assembly). I can’t for the life of me remember the brand though but it would have been cheaper than esab. It also sat on large water bed.
@@christopherbradley4090 Google ESAB-Heath. They only made the frames. I worked on them in the 80’s all over the world. Motion Controls..NC(Paper Tape), optical template or CNC were made by other companies in the good old days.
Chris perhaps your right. The c&g rails were probably copied from ESAB Heath. They look identical. The old BURNY 1250 was a nice controller because it had integrated amplifiers. I retrofitted many machine in Australia & Japan to use that controller. The Y axis is where the value is. The X rails are kinda useless.

A word of caution about warehouses. I think I see/saw an over head sprinkler system in your new warehouses. You may want to call a fire sprinkler business and and have the sprinklers checked out if you have not already. I'm sure with your "fleet" of cars you will want them and the building insured. Have the system inspected because they do become faulty. I used to manage a warehouse and had a company come over and do a quote for maintenance work. I put the quote in my yearly budget for the next year. I left that job shortly after. I had a friend that still worked there call me one day and ask me if I had put the sprinkler system in the budget- I told him I had. He said - I knew that and told management you did but no one would acknowledge that fact. Anyway, the reason my friend called was that one or many of the glass sensors broke and caused about $30,000 in damaged product that they had stored in the warehouse.
Love that JR is helping break the mold for I.T. people. So many people think we are geeks and have no personality.

The „flexible duct“ is called cable track, you can buy it at Kabelschlepp in Milwaukee. Product invented in 1955 in Germany. I worked for them 11 years in germany and now in Milwaukee...
A perfect good housewarming gift is a fire extinguisher. I don't remember seeing smoke detectors or co2 detectors either. Most gas heaters shut down with low oxygen but he should have put an alarm in before new thermostats.
A warm building is nice but your gas and electric bill could be very high if winter is really cold. Turn the heat down low as soon as you leave. You don' need unexpectedly high bills just getting into your building.
I was a field service Engineer for Esab for 36 years. The rail with the small gear rack is the x axis and the other is the non driven slave rail. These rails supported the main gantry. Each section is typically 16' long giving you slightly more than 12' for cutting length. Single drive machines are typically set up for 6' or 8' cutting width. If this was a very old machine, the frame work was a tracing table that rode between the rails for an optical tracer. It had a lot of cross supports so the table was very level for the tracing head. Some had both a tracing head and a small numerical control which had basic geometric shapes stored in it and all you did was input the dimensions desired and cut them out. It could have been an oxy-acetelyene or a small plasma or both!! You really don't have anything of much value. I suspect it is all worn out. I didn't see any rail stands to support the rails that are typically supported approx. 28" off the floor. One set of stands for every 4 foot of rail plus one set at each end!!
Dude JR you are amazing, I don't think there is anything you cannot fix! I love how excited you are about the old things you are finding throughout your new "old" place and how you are able to bring things back to life cheaply. You deserve this place and I am definitely going to keep watching because I know in a year or two that shop is going to be just as nice as the ninjas! Congrats man!

Nest is a funky stat. Ecobee has ‘ user’ parameters where nest decides what you want. This is a simple application. Just off and not freezing is probably perfect for this device.
When I was in Afghanistan I got yelled at all the time by active duty for having my hands in my pocket. Just told them it's ok im in the guard, I have a waiver. They'd walk away confused.
For what it's worth you can by a new smaller CnC plasma table cheaper then trying to find all the part for that bigger table. Plus you don't do the type of work that would warrant a table in the shop in the first place. Not like Halfass garage out of Canada that rebuilds trucks and cars.
You should keep that “secret room” and rent it out as garage space for individual use. Kinda like a stall rental situation. They bring their tools and pay you to rent the space plus electric costs or whatnot
I’ve been working on CNC machines for a decade and built a couple of my own design. For what it is worth, I wouldn’t attempt to build a plasma table out of the scraps of an old machine. You don’t have enough parts to just add a couple motors, you will need the linear motion components for at least 1 more axis, and a CNC control, and a plasma cutter with remote IO capability and a torch height controller or sensor that can integrate with the CNC control. If it were me, and I wanted to build a CNC plasma cutter, and I was willing to spend several thousand dollars on parts, I would probably spend a few thousand more for new linear guides for the x axis and material for a new table so you can get parts that fit your design instead of making the design fit some old parts that may not be in very good condition and exact replacements may not be easily sourced when they fail.
Heating is a good thing. My employer has same system refuses to switch on due to the cost. Absolutely freezing hate winters. I need a job at Jr's place 😎👌
I’m a heating and cooling tech and I definitely endorse your self repairing, however, be careful with the filters you use, anything that is electrostatic is a big problem waiting to happen
Hello John Ross, I am loving your videos! Your knowledge on fixing everything is awesome. You're my favorite channel. I like the way you explain everything as you do the repairs. Keep up the great work on the buildings. 😊

Really enjoying you show all the work that is going into getting the shop set up. Impressed that you get in and tackle each job yourself, that has to be gratifying. Thanks for all the videos and sharing your adventures. Peace
Pure white walls in the small building will make it look larger and cleaner and newer to lease out fast. Spray all the walls a nice white. (Maybe a window or two for natural light). Just like car Ninja’s shop’s all white Bright and spacious. Then charge more $$. Good luck. Great work.
Being excited for the track rails and bed is like being excited for finding an engine block. its a loooong way from running. but hey, if you have good sources for the missing pieces and a way to make money with it, make it happen.
That's pretty wild that you got those heaters to work and it was really cool watching them fire off. Seems like the replacement parts weren't all that expensive and a little bit of elbow grease later, you're off and running.
The shop content is great! I think you could upload a video on refurbishing a popcorn popper, and I'd watch. Anyway, I just cleaned the thermocouple on our furnace at my house. It was kicking on and off and only heating the home to 66 degrees. I have replaced it once before because even after cleaning, it still didn't work right, but this time I was able to clean it and everything is back to normal. It's very frustrating when you heater kicks off and on and works a couple of minutes and then shuts off. The thermocouple of course wasn't properly sensing the heat from the flame, thus shutting off the gas.
Rental rates are higher the smaller the total rental space. Dividing up spaces with 2x6s and plywood with screws is quite quick and easier than what one would expect.
Now that you've warmed us up 🔥😁🔥, we'll be able to enjoy all this really great content from building rehab, to car restore, to who knows what. Why heck, we'd watch a video of John Ross watching paint dry if that's what he posted.
Get a used oil burner or a new one. LOL. We have a used oil burning stove at the shop and it’s awesome! Free heat! Not cheap to install but just remember not to put anything in it but oil or transmission fluid. Get any coolant in it and it will burn the burner out. But they rock.

@watchjrgo homedepot has this stuff called Hardboard Thrifty White Tile Board that costs $15 for a 4x8 sheet. It's glossy. If you wipe it down with windex before you use it the first time it works perfectly with dry erase markers. Dirt cheap white board.
You should start watching some of the hvac channels. If you want lessons, I like grayfurnaceman. Gas heaters are fairly simple, with few parts that go wrong. At least until you get into the high efficiency heaters, which start getting complicated, but not by much more.
watch JRGo got a idea but weels on the CNC. for the plasma cutter table maybe put a two no make a plate for other people to put their plazma on your table see you don't need like 5 of them yourself just other people want to use the table but you can use the table but not the cutter get your own they put on your table you put a metal plate to hold like a car batt.
Make sure to check your capacitors and amp draw on those blowers and draft inducer (vent) motors. If it’s going bad like the noisy one definitely is you’ll overheat the furnace. Oil won’t save the bearings on that baby, lol. There are safety switches but it causes damage to the blower motor regardless . (Licensed hvac ~3yrs)
A used oil burner is a cheap way to heat a warehouse. You can burn every used oil / spirit you get, even used veg oil. When properly tune, no smoke is produced. It makes sense when you work with cars, gallons of disposable, hard to recycle, used oils, can be put in good use. Remember to filter them to 4 microns, and you can even mix them with you diesel oil to used them as fuel in a diesel truck. Lowering the ceiling with polyestirene panels, can help too.
On some heating systems it's important to turn the power off because one wrong move can fry the controller. I would suggest turning the power off on any unit to be safe.
You should try using washable HVAC filters, last year I bought a set of K&N for my house, they are super nice and well built, no problem so far, my hvac unit is probably making some more horsepower now lol
@@andrewhillman9632 hahaha fuckin great ...i have a couple of those "pucks" for the nest where u put them anywhere and they read the temps from there if I were ur boss I would just hide it somewhere 🤣

Get you a rolling project cart from Harbor Freight. It will make your day so much easier with all the servicing your doing. Great video by the way. Self-ownership is inspiring to me.
Speaking from experience (unfortunately), suggest you put a "cage" around your Nests. If you don't wants someone "fiddling" around with something (even if it is locked down remotely) it is best to deny physical access to it. Sure you're familiar with the "idle hands" saying
I wish i could go through all the heating stuff on all the buildings. That'd be an interesting week digging through old stuff resurrecting some of it. As an HVAC tech i like newer stuff but older stuff can be interesting.
you need pv panels and heat pumps - save money - also break up heating into zones - you really don't have to do much other than getting utilities running - the client can set it up however - get somebody established and long term in there and you will be happy - you can get back to even almost and try to start making some money. get that cnc going get all your tools moved in and as you start fixing cars you can add on - big tvs in shop a must - surf the net when you need to look something up or find a fix or a special tool or whatever - you have enough space really give yourself some extra elbow room - get some signage and shop manager rent out a few bays? you may not have to do that once you have tenant just concentrate on doing some cool projects do a fox body mustang with aero and wing and blown 327 - think about getting a dyno and becoming a tuner shop - diy build your own hd dyno? the future looks bright at any rate #flat rate shop

I was going to guess Josh must have 12" feet but it sounds like he missed his est by a foot. Maybe he forgot to add length for the front and back of his shoes? Good thing he's not artillery in the Army. 😉
Seriously, thanks for your service Josh!
@watchjrgo homedepot has this stuff called Hardboard Thrifty White Tile Board that costs $15 for a 4x8 sheet. It's glossy. If you wipe it down with windex before you use it the first time it works perfectly with dry erase markers. Dirt cheap white board.
Man, where were you 2 months ago when I paid a guy $1000 to fix my shop heater!
Only spent $20 to fix both of these, $240 for the thermostats but that's more of a convenience thing 🍻
@@WatchJRGo the wire was free, amazing deals you get in the States. Free CNC with buildings etc. 😋
@@tuneskramer69 Probably cost more to remove it than repair it!! Bob
You should start watching some of the hvac channels. If you want lessons, I like grayfurnaceman. Gas heaters are fairly simple, with few parts that go wrong. At least until you get into the high efficiency heaters, which start getting complicated, but not by much more.
watch JRGo got a idea but weels on the CNC. for the plasma cutter table maybe put a two no make a plate for other people to put their plazma on your table see you don't need like 5 of them yourself just other people want to use the table but you can use the table but not the cutter get your own they put on your table you put a metal plate to hold like a car batt.
How do you know everything?
The 20k in addition to winning a Demon is not for mods, it is to pay the taxes on getting something for "free".
Taxes and shipping are actually included
Make sure to check your capacitors and amp draw on those blowers and draft inducer (vent) motors. If it’s going bad like the noisy one definitely is you’ll overheat the furnace. Oil won’t save the bearings on that baby, lol. There are safety switches but it causes damage to the blower motor regardless . (Licensed hvac ~3yrs)
No one gonna point out how amazing the acoustics are in that warehouse
Super Proud of you... Keep Rocking It.
A used oil burner is a cheap way to heat a warehouse. You can burn every used oil / spirit you get, even used veg oil. When properly tune, no smoke is produced. It makes sense when you work with cars, gallons of disposable, hard to recycle, used oils, can be put in good use. Remember to filter them to 4 microns, and you can even mix them with you diesel oil to used them as fuel in a diesel truck. Lowering the ceiling with polyestirene panels, can help too.
these fix/build series videos are great.
On some heating systems it's important to turn the power off because one wrong move can fry the controller. I would suggest turning the power off on any unit to be safe.
Love my 2nd gen Nest thermostat, couldn't live somewhere without it. Been in 2 apartments with it now.
You should try using washable HVAC filters, last year I bought a set of K&N for my house, they are super nice and well built, no problem so far, my hvac unit is probably making some more horsepower now lol
This project has JRGo morphed into JRHeat, JRSweep, JRClean, JRWire, JREtc...... One hard working JR............
You should get a waste oil heater. Accomplishes 2 things. Free heat and gets rid of waste oil. Really cool shop
you really should avg 100k + a video, please try and be in a cleetus race / or collab more often
We would pack snow on our cheap bosses thermostat.
Used a space heater to turn on our thermostat and get some AC cranking, cheap boss never knew
@@andrewhillman9632 hahaha fuckin great ...i have a couple of those "pucks" for the nest where u put them anywhere and they read the temps from there if I were ur boss I would just hide it somewhere 🤣
I fixed my home furnace myself last year do to a flame sensor. Was a happy moment 😆 to do it myself. Those burners coming on is a great feeling 👍🏼
Pull the vent motors out and replace the brushes and bearing. It'll probably make it run like new.
Good job Air Force catching yourself before putting those hands in your pockets while on video 👍🏻
I just installed a new Honeywell rth9585 smart thermostat in my home and absolutely love it. Luckily, all my wires were color coordinated so it made it easy to install.
Get you a rolling project cart from Harbor Freight. It will make your day so much easier with all the servicing your doing. Great video by the way. Self-ownership is inspiring to me.
Brings back memories of when I used to work on them kind of heating units, Good Up!!!Liked
That 2nd heater definitely has a cracked exchanger
Obviously changing furnace filters was not high on the list of things to do for the previous owners/renters. They were pitch black!
Speaking from experience (unfortunately), suggest you put a "cage" around your Nests.
If you don't wants someone "fiddling" around with something (even if it is locked down remotely) it is best to deny physical access to it.
Sure you're familiar with the "idle hands" saying
Make sure you get a carbon monoxide detector for those old gas units, the heat exchanger could have some cracks or holes.
I wish i could go through all the heating stuff on all the buildings. That'd be an interesting week digging through old stuff resurrecting some of it. As an HVAC tech i like newer stuff but older stuff can be interesting.
That was a good surprise you found but a brick of gold would've been better. It would be like you got the buildings for free.
I think your gas bill might be a little higher now than the $50 per month you estimated
Love the videos man, I bought a 67 camaro the same time you did and i just closed on a 4,000sqft shop of my own. Keep it up, your an inspiration!
you need pv panels and heat pumps - save money - also break up heating into zones - you really don't have to do much other than getting utilities running - the client can set it up however - get somebody established and long term in there and you will be happy - you can get back to even almost and try to start making some money. get that cnc going get all your tools moved in and as you start fixing cars you can add on - big tvs in shop a must - surf the net when you need to look something up or find a fix or a special tool or whatever - you have enough space really give yourself some extra elbow room - get some signage and shop manager rent out a few bays? you may not have to do that once you have tenant just concentrate on doing some cool projects do a fox body mustang with aero and wing and blown 327 - think about getting a dyno and becoming a tuner shop - diy build your own hd dyno? the future looks bright at any rate #flat rate shop
Motors used to have a built-in oiling tube.
JR: I'm really low on things to fix and problems to solve.
World: Have a warehouse!
love to have a building like this..I need a building like this literally..goooooot sooooo many toys at this point...I need a place to put them
Looks like you're an HVAC guy now! I hope you didnt touch the ignitor with the oils of your skin, wont last long. Btw you should get CO detectors!
Excellent point for all .
I would have them inspected, make sure the heat exchangers aren't cracked
@@vacexpert2020 You're exactly right. They way the flame changes when the fan comes on is worrisome
@@jkDLux1 I've condemned enough furnaces to know the signs, short cycling is almost the worst thing that could be done to the heat exchanger, so I have my doubts about the other furnace in that building, it's one thing to be frugal, it's another to be cheap
@@vacexpert2020 I’m shure he knows enough to no better
