I’ll take your 70% and raise you a 100% FUBAR 2 knee replacement 3 hip replacement’s and now waiting on 2 total shoulder replacement surgery US Navy Deep Sea Diver !!! Military is good at taking people in and chewing them up
Another hour video, You say You struggled for content but this was great. Also don't knock yourself about your content every episode I've really enjoyed and good to see you getting on with others in the same industry
I myself have only ever helped as a driver changed one set of tracks,But as an old coal miner we never had the gas or fork lift . It took a lot longer than a couple of hours having to do it in 3 foot of mud . The track were not maintained to your standard, only got replaced when they wouldn't drive or kept getting thrown off,which was normally when you got into boggy ground
Great content Baz and Director sorry you didn't win the award Baz, and I thought you were a big fella but how big is Ashville lol proper man mountain he dwarfed you stood at the side of him, stay safe Paul P
I noticed John Comer from Volvo Trucks was sat on the next table at the awards. I first met John when I introduced the Volvo chassis into Greater Manchester Fire Service fleet 32 years ago. With just a few exceptions the service has retained their allegiance to the manufacturer all this time. No doubt Foxy will know him well given the number of FMX tippers he's operating. Although you didn't win it was nice for you to be recognised. Your time will come.
Hi baz I changed tracks on a 135 recently we use berco chains and sprockets I find machines used on motorway work wear out undercarage very quick 2_3 thousand hours where as building site work 5_6 thousand hours all depending on driver. you made it look easy whitch it is in a nice clean yard but a pig of a job on site in the middle of winter I'm old enough to remember doing it before impact guns came out imagen doing it with a spanner never mind a ratchet spanner What would we today do today without impact guns just finishing of listening to the driver he's dead right about greasing the machines I hear you say your heading for Birmingham I lived there for 30 years I'm back in Ireland now I see you in the Hilton have a pint of Guinness on me I think you earned it this year hope you keeped the camera rolling when you were out on the floor 😀👍👍
Yo baz i used to h8 doing undercarriages!!at least u didnt replace bottom rollers there the worst parts to change so that was lucky unless u r doing cat dozers where u can remove complete undercarriage flip it over and replace rollers then refit whole assembly nice one baz 😊
Great stuff, Baz. I really appreciate how you keep it simple for us not in your industry. I was in engineering my whole working life, just not anything like what you do. Keep up the good work. Always look forward to your content. Thx.
Starts your saturday off well with an hour of Baz and director.Great idea doing the track pad exchange, saves hours changing pads sometimes👍Can't wait for the christmas special👌
Great content easily one of my favourite TH-cam channels. I work for Paterson’s quarries in Scotland for the engineering department and it’s refreshing to see the engineering manager get tore into the work helping the boys out. Keep it up because I feel I’m learning loads watching your channel
@@welderfabber nowt worse starting a shift on the back foot bud. Forgot to ask what happened to your mates head? Did he have a disagreement with pry bar 😂
I'm sure next year Baz you'll get an award along with the Director and some time back help a good mate out with the tracks on his digger did them more or less the same way but your way with the pin is way much better , would love to see how big the yard is from above using the drone 🙂.
Seems like a nice easy fix and effective with the new tracks and great to see the expander pins working as they should!! Unlucky on the award they will be another time I can imagine live all your videos and will be looking forward to Xmas special great work once again baz and director 👊💪 And congratulations foxy for the award it's well deserved 👏
@welderfabber that's where I found out about you mate from ashville so shout out to him, but knowing your a northerner like myself, it's only real to support your own
Never mind Baz another time, good insight into refurbing the tracks a good way of re-cycling the old tracks. As always stay safe and crack on lad to the next one.
The effert that you go to in order that we the viewers can see what & how you get up tp is far greater than Ashfield. (I watch both channals) I could say more but I'll leave it at that. You do a great job - thanks
One of my mates just came to my house and my wife just said to him "Oh you wont get no sense out of him , he's got that bloody Welder chappie on " lol she knows i get so engrossed in watching you , ABSOLUTELY LOVE WATCHING YOUR VLOGS . keep them coming BAZ , when are we going to meet the director properly ????
You are a true hero for business ethics, if only more of the British were of similar makeup as you, we would be a far greater country and society, Very well done to you all, keep up the GOOD WORK, Best wishes to you all
Good morning....always a school day for me when I turn on your vlogs. Changing the tracks on that digger was really interesting but I bet doing it can be a pain at times. I see the replacement parts are far better spec than OEM. I wish car parts were like that. Saying that I wonder what the price difference is between those beefed up parts and makers ... Gutted you didn't get the social media influencer but Ashville has been going for quite a while longer on line but you're catching up very quickly. I was surprised at the size of Daniel though as you're not a small fella yourself Baz ... Thanks to everyone and of course the director for another gear vlog. Can I take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas. Thank you for keeping me entertained through a challenging year for myself health wise. Gary 🙏
Hello Baz ( Mr welderfabber) I have been following your channel since you went to collect bucket from Ashville's but I have just clicked the subscribe button today definitely worth the time. You have definitely come a long way since. I like your in-depth how you guys work and no cutting corners or covering up things. Well Mr welderfabber I look forward to watch this show every Saturday morning before I set of to work definitely worth the subscription. Stay safe be good. Who knows I might be knocking on your door coming summer.😅
Hey Baz, great vlog again as usual. Don’t stress about the content, it’s always good and the clients wishes must always be respected. Kudos to you and a Merry Christmas to you all. 👍🇬🇧
Baz, once again another great video. For us mere mortals looking over your shoulder, its is a pleasure and learning experience. BTW, looking real posh with the suit and tie. Congrats to Daniel, you're in good company. Fox Groups is the gold standard. Have a Merry Christmas... Cheers
just in time for a rainy night here in Florida,,,,,,,cheers Director and BAZ and the Gang...... I think I will need closed captions with "Merican English' to understand their names..... have a wonderful weekend.......Paul 'Paulie' Brown
Happy days ....... learn something new everytime............. Great content as always ,hope ur all well baz director n lads ............... 🇮🇲 🦊🇮🇲🦊🇮🇲 everywhere very good Mr fox ,baz,director n lads
we did see a very rare thing it was a digger operator getting grease to greace up his machine ooo no it was baz in a suite thats the rare sight that we saw on the episode haahah love the videos Baz and Director and please please keep them coming and also happy Christmas and a very safe and happy New Year
Another great video Baz. Dont worry about the lack of content, it's at just the right level, educational and interesting. Forget the critics. One question how often do you check the track tension?. The system looks foolproof and works well if maintained. I would think lack of attention to the track tension would accelerate wear.
Really enjoyed seeing a track change, you make it look so easy. Im curious to the four finger measurement for tension, does that work for all machines? Even say a 5 tonner on rubber tracks
Great content! Very enjoyable. If you're in need of content, you spoke earlier about a machine recovery you were going to film. That would be interesting! Cheers from Texas!
If you need some ideas for content. Can you talk about your welders and the difference between the UK welders and US welds are they better than the Miller and Lincoln welders.
@39.14 Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee spinny spinny , " see how easy that is " Baz Eeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrm not on a early sat. Morning after a friday nite sesh !!!!!🙈😳
Hi Baz, so im a Driver, usual on loaders sometimes walking floors. The company I am at has tippers mixes then a few loaders and waste trailers, we have a heap of plant too but its not for hire, but when it comes to fixing plant its our plant fitters that do everything on them apart from welding we have two welders that cover that, so why are you guys out at crushers or like todays video change of tracks everywhere I have worked thats a plant fitters job ?
Good content as usual. I would just HAVE to give the equipment a power wash first and get rid of most of teh muck. No doubt there's a reason they dont?
I've never seen a track loader wear out an under carriage like that, they usually get very little wear. That looks more like a 6 or 7000 bulldozer undercarriage! Is it operating in a severely abrasive environment?
Baz lad this is the most random question you’ll ever see in your lifetime but what razor do you use for shaving ur head . Looks a proper clean and close shave. Only started shaving mine recently but any razor Ive used so far butchers my head 🤣 keep up the great work from a fellow welder
If you have chance before Xmas break editor maybe it’d be helpful to most operators to show them how to properly park a 360 machine up to protect rams from the frost and to take pressure of the track motor’s as well as the importance of not having the undercarriage packed with dirt that freezes putting extra stress on the track. It’s surprising how few know even the older op’s.
Suprising how long those tracks are when you pull them off innit/ Do you guy's cover Yorkshire at all? (if you ever need people i'm free for plant and tig welding and hyper therm goodness ;)
That hour flew by thanks lad’s. Whenever I lift a track I’d only do it with a bucket attached incase of strain or failure of the crowd ram. Am I just over thinking it Baz?
Baz awsome work mate, quick question I’m not a man of your trade but I can’t help but think on these jobs why don’t you go in with a high pressure washer first to clean everything is there a technical reason? …
I liked that track change. Something I’ve never seen. I served 25 years with the U.S. Air Force working on Jet Aircraft. Now a 70% Disabled Veteran.
Hope your well mate.. 🫶
I was usmc with track vehicles. We had to change our tracks all the time. It never went that easy, lol 😆
I’ll take your 70% and raise you a 100% FUBAR 2 knee replacement 3 hip replacement’s and now waiting on 2 total shoulder replacement surgery US Navy Deep Sea Diver !!! Military is good at taking people in and chewing them up

Totally agree 👍
Cheers mate appreciate it
Love the 6am uploads......... Baz and crew know that the early bird catches the worm! ATB
Hiya Baz loving the channel it great to see you guys working on theses amazing big machines can’t get enough 😂💪
Thanks 👍
Another great video. Baz your a big guy but that just showed how big Daniel and foxy are 😂😂😂legends all of you.
proper units
I myself have only ever helped as a driver changed one set of tracks,But as an old coal miner we never had the gas or fork lift . It took a lot longer than a couple of hours having to do it in 3 foot of mud .

Both proper units bud, yeah I'm not small but they make me look it
Yes another 1 HR long welderfabber video. 😊 Cheers baz and director 👍
Love your content. Daniel is a good act so do not beat yourself up.
Thanks Baz and the crew for another great show. Good content and something worth watching.
Your welcome

46:09 loads of water 💦 there. Why ain’t they got the diggers to get it to run off?? ❤❤
Hi baz I changed tracks on a 135 recently we use berco chains and sprockets I find machines used on motorway work wear out undercarage very quick 2_3 thousand hours where as building site work 5_6 thousand hours all depending on driver. you made it look easy whitch it is in a nice clean yard but a pig of a job on site in the middle of winter
I'm old enough to remember doing it before impact guns came out imagen doing it with a spanner never mind a ratchet spanner What would we today do today without impact guns just finishing of listening to the driver he's dead right about greasing the machines I hear you say your heading for Birmingham I lived there for 30 years I'm back in Ireland now I see you in the Hilton have a pint of Guinness on me I think you earned it this year hope you keeped the camera rolling when you were out on the floor 😀👍👍
Easy be best driver in baz’s books once he looks for grease haha, the chains coming with pads looks a great job
True that!
Morning Baz and the Director.
Hi baz love whatching ur videos I’ve been see your fox tippers up and down the a55 in North Wales I live in penmaenmawr or up the the good work mate 👍
Yes your bang on there I've been on 130 Hitachi and both had snapped bolts and a missing roller
Thanks for the schooling - great teaching content! I subscribed. Allistair sent me. 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Yo baz i used to h8 doing undercarriages!!at least u didnt replace bottom rollers there the worst parts to change so that was lucky unless u r doing cat dozers where u can remove complete undercarriage flip it over and replace rollers then refit whole assembly nice one baz 😊

Cool, thanks
Say Baz - I like the way Our Paul sat in the cab the whole time - resisted all inclination to get some brews on!
Starts your saturday off well with an hour of Baz and director.Great idea doing the track pad exchange, saves hours changing pads sometimes👍Can't wait for the christmas special👌
Gotta love the weather here this time of year. Its either wet or freezing 😂
Its all we know jon
Baz you said you were struggling for content well what you showed was very interesting keep up the good work!!
Great content easily one of my favourite TH-cam channels. I work for Paterson’s quarries in Scotland for the engineering department and it’s refreshing to see the engineering manager get tore into the work helping the boys out. Keep it up because I feel I’m learning loads watching your channel
Cool, thanks
Great video, you lads earn every penny proper graft in all weathers up to your knees in mud and shit to get kit up and earning again. 🤘😎🤘🇬🇧
Cracking vid lads enjoyed that, looked like you were in for a rough morning there Baz with a 7am start 😂
Yeah I'm always up at 5ish
@@welderfabber nowt worse starting a shift on the back foot bud. Forgot to ask what happened to your mates head? Did he have a disagreement with pry bar 😂
A dozer wearing out a sprocket is no surprise, but an excavator doing so is - to me in all my ignorance of such things - remarkable.
I'm sure next year Baz you'll get an award along with the Director and some time back help a good mate out with the tracks on his digger did them more or less the same way but your way with the pin is way much better , would love to see how big the yard is from above using the drone 🙂.
That’s in one of the previous videos mate
Seems like a nice easy fix and effective with the new tracks and great to see the expander pins working as they should!! Unlucky on the award they will be another time I can imagine live all your videos and will be looking forward to Xmas special great work once again baz and director 👊💪
And congratulations foxy for the award it's well deserved 👏
Thanks 👍Ashville has done way more for the industry and he's a top guy, happy he won
@welderfabber that's where I found out about you mate from ashville so shout out to him, but knowing your a northerner like myself, it's only real to support your own
Never mind Baz another time, good insight into refurbing the tracks a good way of re-cycling the old tracks. As always stay safe and crack on lad to the next one.
Thanks 👍
I knew you reminded me of someone 👍
It’s the one and only Sean Bean! Obviously a younger version, but a definite likeness 👌 thanks for all the content
😂😂
Looks like you and Paul work well together... pleasure to see.
Baz and team keep up the good, im watching all the way from South Africa👍
The effert that you go to in order that we the viewers can see what & how you get up tp is far greater than Ashfield. (I watch both channals) I could say more but I'll leave it at that.
You do a great job - thanks
Gotta love sat mornings! Cheers guys

@Welder Fabber , i guess its easy wen u know how !!!! Loved watching the machine operators movements, proper skills 👌
Another quality production for team Welderfabber.
Another great upload baz well done director keep them coming 😀
Enjoyed the video chap start/finish...
we did see a very rare thing it was a digger operator getting grease to greace up his machine ooo no it was baz in a suite thats the rare sight that we saw on the episode haahah love the videos Baz and Director and please please keep them coming and also happy Christmas and a very safe and happy New Year
Next time, tell the customer to clean up all this and the mud and then bring it to the workshop, and by the way great job guys well done ❤
Another great video Baz. Dont worry about the lack of content, it's at just the right level, educational and interesting. Forget the critics.
One question how often do you check the track tension?. The system looks foolproof and works well if maintained. I would think lack of attention to the track tension would accelerate wear.
1st week every couple of days, then every service john
Great work Baz and your mate. Wouldn't it have been better to power wash the machine and tracks before any work started
It was mate believe it or not.
This time of year is absolutely terrible on site's with Muck mate
Thanks Baz and the crew for another great video
Really enjoyed seeing a track change, you make it look so easy. Im curious to the four finger measurement for tension, does that work for all machines? Even say a 5 tonner on rubber tracks
No smaller machines need to be tightened more mate on rubber
Tough watch Baz, haha, good luck with the 'Duratrack experience'! see you soon pal, us Northerners don't do balls :)
You know the score son
You know the score son
hi welderfabber keep up the good videos and the good work and be safe
Great content! Very enjoyable. If you're in need of content, you spoke earlier about a machine recovery you were going to film. That would be interesting! Cheers from Texas!
Ye definitely, we’ll get some recovery jobs next year mate
If you need some ideas for content. Can you talk about your welders and the difference between the UK welders and US welds are they better than the Miller and Lincoln welders.
Great job Baz, so how many hours will those new parts last?
Should get 6k hours all depends on operator and ground
@39.14 Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee spinny spinny , " see how easy that is " Baz

I appreciate that Tommy
You going to win next year

Thanks Noel 👍
Suprising how long those tracks are when you pull them off innit/ Do you guy's cover Yorkshire at all? (if you ever need people i'm free for plant and tig welding and hyper therm goodness ;)
Who is the director I think we’re all wondering who puts this great content together
Baz,s brother is the director
Baz, you're a modern day Fred Dibnah and as entertaining to watch.
Keep yer powder dry, sunshine.
another belter 👍🏻👍🏻
good stuuf there mates
Can i ask when you are fitting top rollers and other stuff like bucket blades why do you grind off the paint doesn’t that make it rust quicker 😊
Believe it or not by leaving the paint on can sometimes make whatever item it is can come loose.
That hour flew by thanks lad’s. Whenever I lift a track I’d only do it with a bucket attached incase of strain or failure of the crowd ram. Am I just over thinking it Baz?
No nothing wrong with being more concerned about safety mate. If we changed the bottom rollers we would of blocked it up
I don’t doute that for one moment Baz, ps congratulations lads on being nominated so early in ya TH-cam career 👏
Fantastic job 😅😊
Top one lads👍
Baz awsome work mate, quick question I’m not a man of your trade but I can’t help but think on these jobs why don’t you go in with a high pressure washer first to clean everything is there a technical reason? …
We do most times but you can’t get to the recoil anyway without taking the track off.
Some people like the overtime, maybe starting round clock repair shop might help with the work load?🇬🇧👍🙂
We do run 24hour 5 days a week
