Making NEW Pins for Earthmoving Machinery | Machining & Welding
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- These pins are worn out so we are making new replacement pins! We’ve got 2 big bucket pins from a Hitachi ZX670 Excavator and 2 pins from the ripper bed frame off a D9T Bulldozer. We show the step by step process of making the new pins. We start with machining the plates off the old pins before machining up the new pins using induction hardened chrome rod. The D9 dozer pins also need deep hold drilling and tapping for the grease holes before using the milling machine to drill a through hole for the grease channel. We finish up the job by welding the plates onto the new pins.
In this video we are using:
Hafco TM-26120G Centre Lathe
Hafco BM-63VE Milling machine
WIA 500i Weldmatic welder

G'day I love the patreon page
@@Murphyslawfarm thanks for joining us in there & that support we really appreciate it mate
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering No worries mate. Glad I can support a great Aussie channel and business 👍
It's always cool to see just how much difference there is between hardened chrome and the base metal. Even the ceramic inserts, as much as you baby them, have a difficult time cutting through that induction layer. That's probably my favorite part, but watching you cut through the old welds and recognizing when to stop is pretty satisfying , too.
I like you always use the crane instead of doing "burradas" (big efforts) your body will thank that in the long run. And that is "educational" for wievers!.Cheers fron Spain.
Best part of the editing is she knows when to speed up certain parts that are highly repetitious and we've already seen. When a new process comes up we haven't seen she slows it back to real time. That really helps it from becoming a 2 hour video without missing anything. That only comes from experience. And Curtis is his normal awesome self.
Yes, that is improving for every week. I have seen all the videos so I use the 15sec--jump-button quite a lot. I probably see 50%..? I skip most of the outtakes now. In addition to the HBO-show "The last Of Us", this is one of two entertainment-highlights in my week (I'm a retired structural engineer/architect, Norway). CEE; Did you see my email-suggestion for "Swarf-sculptures"..? (sent Dec. 15th).
Why retire
Thank you for showing us where these parts go and work on the machines. Elevates the context to the next level !!
Yes, I agree, it absolutely makes it easier to understand & appreciate
Yes, sometimes I wonder where these parts actually fit.
It's really useful, especially for those, like me, that are not familiar with machinery 👏👏👏
Was gonna comment just this. They usually show video of the equipment but don't point to the location of the part A simple freeze frame and a well place arrow are a Godsend.
@@dirtfarmer7472 asdasdas
Got to say. Never miss CEE drops. After watching all the outtakes….Kurtis is a true master of his trade/craft. Karen via her filming and editing makes Makes Kurtis appear that all his words flow and make perfect sense. …..
The outtakes say otherwise 🤣🤣🤣
Homey seals the deal…you guys deserve every success 👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇦🇺🇦🇺
Have an awesome weekend 🍻🍻🍻
I thought my talking had gotten better after 2 years, but it's actually Karen's editing that's gotten better LOL
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering I think your talking is getting better I can understand when you say fu*k off train much better now than I did a year ago.
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Karen in the words of The Castle……”Slap him he’s dreaming”🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys rock and never get boring…,
PS love “Homey Cam”👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻
You are so delicate and mindfull with your equipment, I've seen other "fabricators" throw their tools and being the "rough" guy.
Im Filipino and Everytime I see any of my mechanics/machinist friends I recommend your channel
That's bloody awesome thanks for supporting the channel mate
I will probably never step foot in a machine shop or ever find myself in need of a skilled machine operator such as Kurtis, but it is still so satisfying to watch a job start to finish.
What I appreciate about the bloopers at the end is how often you smile/laugh. Being able to do that throughout your day is key to long-life and happiness. Keep it up you two!
In many cases, it's either laugh or suck-start a 12-Guage...
I don't know about you, but I much prefer Laughing...
Especially if there's a Psychotic Edge to the Laugh making everyone around you a little nervous...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Karen's camera work and editing are so smooth and show the job in the most interesting and entertaining ways. Professional, accurate and fun to watch with always little artistic nuances that add a lot to how the job is presented to us. Shows the job as its done in its best light.
Yes I agree with you, of course I’d say it a little different, but you expressed the idea more goodly. Thank you Sir
I've heard that Hollywood is after her skills,if she goes, Homeless will have to do the editing.
sadsads
Yea we would love to see Karen’s face hi Karen
Another thing you never show all the setting up
I am from Moldova,I like your video's,you are very good in metal processing-one day I will be as good in my field as you are in yours.
Kurtis, I’ve watched other machinist on different video channels mostly doing smaller jobs on smaller machines but I gotta say you’re by far the most professional and most thorough operator I’ve seen. 👍👍 Like I’ve said before, if I was in Australia and had industrial sized equipment you’d be my go-to guy for sure. I just wish you’d bring in a young, enthusiastic,knowledgeable, serious protege to be your understudy. Your skills, work ethic and knowledge need to be preserved. You’re not old. But you never know…….A youngster could never learn what knowledge you’ve accumulated from a book. Pass it on.
What I find fascinating about the work you do is the crazy mix of "I'll do it by eyecrometer" and "Better measure with our most precise measurement instrument"-type work you do, and how your approaches differ there.
It takes a skilled craftsman to do a job only as precise as necessary, and still within spec.
And your wife is doing just as great of a job with the editing, she makes time just fly by! And I'll never get tired of saying it, not having mouse squeaks during timelapses is highly appreciated, and something that just elevates this to another level!
I’m not an engineer but I just love watching what you do, I do feel that your skills are greatly under appreciated outside of your industry. I just hope younger people see and get interested in this profession.
That's what I love about youtube / internet : you get to learn about stuff you would never have been exposed to. Makes you appreciate how humans as a civilization have such a wide variety of skills and abilities. And that whatever the field there are people who are highly knowledgeable / skilled.
We take a lot of things for granted, but they are only possible because all those people work in their specific fields to make this happen. Construction, IT, healthcare, farming... so many things to learn !!
I never miss a video. I love seeing the steel shine and hear your explanation
thanks for supporting the videos mate glad you enjoy them
Hard same
There is something so satisfying about knocking out jobs like this… not building an entire village, not worrying about saving the whole world, but just fixing things… something with a start, middle, and finish that’s all within reach within a day or two. I’m so jealous.
This morning I feel even slower than Captain Slow. I just realized that there is more than one interpretation of "Let's face it" because of the lathe turning meaning as well as the more general one. Oh well. Never too late to learn, I guess. Excellent work on the video and the metal work, as usual. Have a very good weekend, everyone.
Coming from somebody that grew up welding and lineboring equipment for decades, Curtis is a wildly intelligent guy. Everything he's doing would take your average welder/ machinist 3x longer to do any of this.
What a perfect morning, fresh coffee and a cutting edge video, thank you!
Good morning! Have a good Friday over there
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Thank you! A good weekend to you (if i got my time zones right)
I've never touched a lathe in my life. No idea how to weld. Everything about this channel is outside my knowledge set. But every single video is a must watch for me. It's great to watch a master of a craft at work. I truly appreciate the tone of the channel, and the wholesome honesty they work together to produce in every episode. My sincere thanks for the great entertainment
Here’s to everyone enjoying the master craftsman Karl and his intrepid producer/director Karen tonight {in the USA}. We’re living our best life and that’s for sure. Thank you guys for another incredible video and give my love to homie ❤😊😍
Cheers mate thanks for the great support each week!
Who's Karl ?! 😆
Yeah nice one Carl.
... fairly sure it's Kevin. I don't think he ever actually says his name 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's KURTIS !!!!!!
As another viewer said its good to know where these parts fit. Fridays essential viewing done. Great job. Cheers.
Another great video to start my Friday right, also I know you’ve seen a comment like this before I really do love that you show where the parts go
thx a lot, family..... finally some strong and satisfying work.... thanks for letting me see this, blessed week, good caresses to each other
Oh man, you engineers are a breed apart. There are times you appear to work 30 times faster than us mere mortals could ever manage. Regards from Scotland.
Forgive me K and K for just watching your video today. Away for work and this was the first chance to watch it. Simple yet still professional... Cheers from Cape Canaveral Florida
Hey mate no need for apologies thanks for taking time to watch when you can!
I don't know what it is about your videos but I always look forward to Friday when the new one drops. Top work keeping me distracted for 40 mins !
Glad you like them!
This is why I so enjoy your programs. You not only provide a show about engineering; you explain why you change tools and provide us novices with reasons for making those changes. Thank you so much. I'm 74 years old and retired from education. And I'll tell you now, I have learned more, and understood the 'why' more, from your posts, than I have learned over the last fifty years from classroom instruction by people who claimed to be professional educators. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hi Kurtis and Karen,
Was all set to hit the sack and was notified your video was uploaded. Well worth the lost sleep. You both stay safe.
Hey Don thanks for staying up to watch the new vid we always appreciate your support mate
Прекрасная работа! И какой правильный технический английский! Восхищён!
I plan to open a small machine shop in a few years when I retire. I will be 45 and it’s been a long time coming. Really glad I found your channel and enjoy the content. Thanks
awesome mate all the best with it! 😎👊
Very grateful for what you provide. Thank you Karen, Kurtis, and Homie
you're welcome! Thanks for the support 😁
This was AWSOME!
I used to sew but always wondered how the stitches held.
I sewed on my merit badges (badly) ,then got better when my mom said " you need to learn lots of different things in life. ( I'm 59 now )
My kids and grand kids can't believe a MAN knows how to sew.
The main comment I want to make is, the model you made was what got me.
After all these years! Lol
Thank you!!
Wow such wear, and of course Kurtis will replace & repair & Karen will film & homey will check saftey,
Lovely work as always
Hey Andrew! Thanks for taking the time to watch this one
This channel in my opinion goes against logic. It is a very successful channel based around a very specialised subject. How many people know much about this field of work. Yet week in week out thousands tune in to watch. And now know 100% more about the subject than they did before. Which is still not a lot. For me it has four components that keep me watching. Interesting work. Combined with the description of what it is for, and how it is used. Fascinating. The execution of the fabrication. General quality of the work. The camera work and editing. Has to be among the best of the TH-cam channels. And last but not least. Homeless the dog. Security and chief mail opener. It would seem to be a winning formula. I enjoy and appreciate all the effort put into these videos. And glad that so many others do too.
I really appreciate the patience and care in the way you work.
Watching these videos is almost like a mediation for me.
Karen, Story telling is the best.
You keep finding ways to improve shots and show what is happening. Always interesting.
Kurtis, what is happening with the equipment is nothing to what is going on in your head at the same time. You are very talented...
thank you for the great comment we both appreciate that!
was literally looking at mini lathes online and this video popped up. once again with the perfect timing! 🔥
do it! 😂👊
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering closest thing i get to a lathe is at work when im turning brake rotors or drums. id like something at home when im working on other hobbies that might be needing threaded or turned!
@@michaellindsey13 The only time you'll regret having a lathe at home is if you tell people you have one 😉.
i did not have a button tool for my smithy until i found your channel,,,i really like the quality of the cut
Video editing is improving in leaps and bounds. After 15 minutes of a 37 minute video already 2000 likes 👍
Thank you so much 😀
Karen really pays a lot of attention to the audio while editing, and it shows.
Not having mouse squeaks during timelapses is something I don't see anywhere else, this is just on another level!
10k likes an hour at 4 hours currently
I really enjoy the fact that she uses unsped up sound clips for the ffw parts
@@michaelmain1990 Yeah, but she cuts them to fit too! That attention to detail really makes her edits next level!
I’ve watched so many of your videos, I have the confidence to do it myself! 0 training other than watching hours……upon hours….upon hours….. upon hours of your artwork.
Gday Kurtis and Karen, these are the nice quick easy jobs that are enjoyable, you said if the parabolic drill breaks off the pin is rooted, I’d be pissed off with having to buy a new drill, there not cheap, great video as alway, have a great weekend mate, cheers
Saving my customer a bit of money, that is a good way of keeping your old and getting new customers. Well that is what you do isn't it.
Good evening from Lake Stevens WA USA
Kurtis - you are an artist and a fine machinist. Keep up the great work. Look forward to your videos find them peaceful and entertaining!
thanks very much mate!
Good evening from Vancouver WA!

I’m 75 years old and was a welder for a few years as a teenager. Welded pipe most of the time. Everything was stick E6011 or E7080 some TIG for stainless. Never used wire feed the shop didn’t even own one. I only recall that we rented a few machines one time for a rush job replacing the deck in a big tank that had a ship waiting off shore waiting to unload. 6 or more guys welding around the clock in the tank. I got a bad flash burn from the reflection off the tank wall coming in my hood into my eyes off my own lens with so many guys welding. I didn’t even know how to set it up but it was fast and easy all flat welds. You are a remarkable welder I like to see you weld and would like to know how you decide heat and feed rate etc.
That button insert is no joke. I have to applaud you from the other side of the world sir. The work you do, the knowledge you have and the fact that you are a 1 man show is absolutely outstanding. All the best and here's to years and years of continuing success.
Tailstock cam! Nice touch. Good work as always, you two!
thanks mate, Karen was trying to find another use for the GoPro camera 😅
I get better and better at predicting all the steps in these repairs. I didn't miss one today. You are a great teacher, Kurtis.
Ooh.. Use a button insert for interrupted cut! Having beaten the crap out of my expensive carbide inserts made of the very best "Chinesium" I thought I'd give the button insert a go.. Brilliant! makes a huge difference! Of course its obvious now because the button has much less thin pointy carbide hanging over the edge of the tool. Thankyou!!!!!!
Best part of my Friday morning! Gotta love seeing chips fly
TGIF!
You don’t know how true that is this week
@@eliskelton hope you have a better week next week
I just have to wait till next Fridays video then it will be better😂
The machine work, the camera work, the editing, the Homey intermission... *chefs kiss*
I'm always impressed with when people machine metals, especially on a lathe. You take a material designed to withstand hours of grueling heavy loads and you shave it and shape it like it's a block of butter!
I know it's hard on tools and such like, but you make it look so easy!
Hi Karl and Karen, I don’t know why but I’m addicted to your videos. I guess it’s the opportunity to watch two master craft persons. A man and a woman that have mastered their respective crafts and obviously enjoy their work. It comes across. Thank you.
*Kurtis
Un régal de voir le chef travailler, un régal de voir la vidéo, bravo à vous deux 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
merci mon pote j'apprécie !
Hey man I spent my 18th birthday drilling 7/16" (bananas) holes/water cooling passages in plastic injection molds with standard twist drills anywhere from a few inches or up to 24" deep (short of drilling into the cavity in the mold). It was CSM2 steel and would work harden in a heartbeat. Then it was hell to drill the hole further. With a little innovation the shop engineer converted a Lucas horizontal boring mill to a gun drill with a high speed spindle. With the twist drill it was a thousand trips into the hole and then drag it out to clear the chips. On really deep holes I silver-soldered standard 7/16" drill to drill rod and that was even more trips in and out of the hole. I had to learn the trade the hard way and that was the rude awakening in how to actually work for a living. You remind me of the old time machinist that taught me the trade and me as a 50 year younger man. I enjoy watching your videos and hope you will continued doing them for a long time to come. Thanks my Australian friend!
Still Thursday 11 30 pm here I'm lucky to get to see ur videos early lol thanks guys.awesome work you both rock.
wow watching it a day early over there lol
Definitely an interesting process to watch.
As a former certified mig and stick ironworker union welder your welds are 100 percentno flaws top notch.
That hard turning is crazy. You can see that it isn't so much cutting the metal as pushing on it so hard that it melts, and then scraping it off! It was also interesting how 'squeaky' the stainless was when being cut in one of the recent videos compared to these pins.
It doesn't get hot enough to melt. It merely gets up to about dull red heat. Sometimes if the chip is thin it's enough to cause it to catch fire like steel wool, and it starts glowing bright yellow as it burns. Heating at just below red heat causes a phase transformation in the material converting some of it into a different crystal structure which is much softer. In other words, it reverts or erases the induction hardening process. Typically after heat treating a high carbon steel, there's a "tempering" step at about 300-400°C for and hour. This softens the material a bit to avoid excessive brittleness, making it tougher. But if you go above 400 the tempering process starts progressing much more quickly and becomes more dramatic. Near red heat the tempering is almost instant, resulting in material with the same hardness as the relatively soft interior of the bar. Same thing happens with drill bits if you spin them too fast or don't use oil, they overheat then the tip rapidly softens. Then they stop cutting and resharpening is futile. You have to use a cutoff wheel and chop a chunk off the end, then totally regrind.
Thank you for adding the stock footage of the various excavators to explain the location of the parts. I know that isn't easy to do, but it's a detail that is super appreciated by this viewer.
Jabeezus dude! Can't a old man get rest over here in the western hemi? I got this notification like 20 minutes ago that CCE had posted and I have to check it out. Thanks man for all your efforts and great video!
the right choice was made here 😎👊😂
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Right or wrong, much love and respect brother!
Craftsman work on an industrial scale. Our way of life depends upon people who have your skill and share your commitment to quality work. Nicely done!
I’ve seen a lot of different welds, both robotic and human. Your welds are exceptional in both quality and aesthetics. I can weld and have for years, and only wish I had your talent. You make it look so easy. I really enjoy your videos and look forward to seeing new videos every Friday.
Having a parts rotator definitely helps a lot. Also helps a lot when you use 10-15% CO2 instead of the generic 75Ar/25CO2. Welds tebd to be cleaner and less oxidized. He's running it in pretty solid "spray transfer" settings which explains the smooth finish and low spatter. The majority of welders out there don't know how to setup spray transfer.
Once again absolutely outstsandin kurtis .
You and Karen the best.
Even if this a common job.
You give top quality with perfect welds.
You don't kid when you say harden face.
Karen is working hard to get the angle to video and sharp editing.
Now tools down, cold beer in hand.
The lack of preheat on stuff that big, on a material that's easily induction hardened is a bit concerning to me, but they may have edited the preheat step out. Typically you'd want to preheat to 270-300°C. This is because the heating and cooling cycle in welding is pretty similar to the induction hardening process. So you have a risk that the heat-affected zone next to the weld becomes extremely hard and brittle causing subsequent cracking . Preheating the material slows down the cooling rate making the HAZ softer and more ductile.
@@TSorovanMHael ...I'M PRETTY SURE THAT HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING-(!)
Between your videos and videos from Pakistan is night and day! Always a pleasure watching professionals! Thanks
G'day Kurtis, Karen and Homey great video as always and I learnt more about drilling and drill bits 😀 👍
awesome mate it's always good to know if we can give a bit of education and entertainment on each video 😎👊
Absolutely incredible work . Watching you work soothes my soul . I do have one small request . Put that beautiful rotator up on a bench so you can stand and weld or sit in a chair and weld please . Watching you crouch like that is having a detrimental effect on my back and knees .
Good project, I haven't been watching or commenting for awhile, I've had medical issues going on but I've been binge watching. I love the new angle blocks and I knew you weren't going to leave them with rough surfaces, you have too much pride in your work to have anything looking crude.
I enjoy watching you use the button insert, I have a small lathe in my home shop and I'll be getting one to use. It does a great job cutting out welds
Kudos to Karen - best camerawork and editing on TH-cam for this type of video ! :)
Thanks so much! 😊
Once again brilliant display of knowledge and skills.
Ceramic insert (cutting tools) sound interesting some details on these would be interesting.
Holy crap those pins were munted! That said folks, nice video to come home to on a Friday after a rough week or work here in Vancouver BC Canada. Seeing the work of two people who love what they do...so nice to see.
Genius edit Karen 👌 3:37 “Cutting Edge Editing”!
thank you! I like to challenge myself with getting clean transitions
Wow! Surprisingly easy to see when you're through the induction hardened layer! And interesting to see how even it is and how thin the border is! Like one pass is fully hardened and the next is not!
Another great video. Thanks for getting my Friday off to a good start.
If I had worked in a shop doing what you do in my early years I'd would probably still be doing machining as a job vs a hobby. There is something about the scale of the large parts you work with over the small stuff I did back then.
Favourite bit was at 26:18 when you gave a little whimper when removing hot swarf from the endmill, and a little bit of finger skin went up in smoke. Only because i've done it 100 times myself. (I noticed that you edited out the swarf removal for the other 3 holes. I keep a paddle pop stick handy nowadays).
You do make things look easy, but you spend a lot of time learning each part of your job .
Great work each time too.
God bless old man cliff
There’s your “cutting edge engineering” right there in those shop-made “V” blocks. Excellent example where a little thinking shortens the time for a job and saves the customer $$. 👍
I remember turning some 1" induction-hardened chrome bar as an apprentice. Carbide insert didn't work on the surface and a J -man said to use ceramic, then turned the rpm up past 1k. Red hot strands showered me and the next two machines. lol The wise-acre was teasing me. I switched back to ~600 rpm and could see by the finish when to switch back to carbide for the end ODs. 'Bondo' didn't mess with me much after that. btw, I make tractor pins from stress-proof lately. Doesn't weld(!) but turns nicely.
Once again, another great video. You guys are doing a great job. Keep it up!! 🎉🎉
thanks very much mate we appreciate it as alway!
Buenos días.
Antes que nada un reconocimiento a la señorita de la cámara por realizar un excelente trabajo, podemos ver cada detalle y tiene una agradable risa.
Su trabajo es magnífico.
And again greetings from Kazakhstan ! THANK you so much for your professionalism , as well as for your high- level content ! I 'm afraid to imagine what all these customers would do without you ... Thanks to specialists like you, Curtis! Many of us can no longer imagine Friday without your content. I have nothing to do with turning, I am an electronics engineer, but I understand perfectly well what difficult work you sometimes do. I have a lot of respect for people like you Curtis. Be healthy !!!
Hey there.
I've had the best luck with those ceramic inserts by never dragging them backwards out of the cut.
Back the cross out a few thousandths of bananas before reversing the carriage.
Pins pins and more pins, they always are the first thing to wear out particularly on the H.
That lathe has so much power, 1,200 RPM effortlessly while still being quiet. That’s an amazing machine.
You guys are the best.
That's a 3-Phase motor for you...
In most cases, the loudest part of the motor is the cooling fan mounted on the rear end of the rotor shaft...
Morning Kurtis!! Very good video, as I've mentioned before I work for one of the big three here in America, we do suspension & drivetrain development, we strain gauge drive & axle shafts, shocks etc. I shared your video with our consumables coordinator to see if he can order some of those Parabolic drills....be safe!!! God Bless!!
It's funny that all this stuff are for these huge industrial machines, yet I often find the materials shockingly beautiful. They're truly modern wonders.
I know hardness makes a huge difference but the cut depth per pass between the two layers was a perfect visual example. Great video as always.
We've seen it a fair share of times, but I never get tired of seeing tools cut through the induction hardened layer of the chrome bar you use for jobs like this. The way the ceramic cuts through it, it almost doesn't even look like metal being shaved away. RIP to that ceramic insert though.
Nice job guys, those parabolic drills are great for deep holes, I've used a gundrill before but they're expensive and without the high pressure coolant it's no quicker than a Parabolic one
Excellent, job..! Here in the UK, when Friday comes around, I'm up, washed, fed, a few jobs done (I'm a retired old geezer) I switch my phone on, and look for Kurtis, Karen and Homie's latest video... Aaah..! All is right, in my world, for a while, anyway..! 👍🏻
Karen you're doing a wonderful job with the video and editing.
Kurtis you're work is always fun to watch. I wish you could upload more than 1 time a week.
Keep em coming.
The time lapse footage is like Homie-vision for Kurtis
Looks & sounds that the mig is set to spray transfer smoother arc, less spatter.
Much better.
Consider setting the rotation axis of the chuck manipulator to 45* and set the welding head vertically at the top then the weld will be in the downhand position.
You could get higher deposit rates at higher current.
Every time you talk about nitriding, I want to see red LEDs scanning back and forth 😂
Andrew, such a handsome devil…
Dude i thought I was the only one!
K.A.R.R. is watching 👀
Hahahaha, awesome!!
Best reply award goes to.....
It's amazing how rarely this guy screws up. Truly an art. My favorite part is the welding, and seeing the parts come together with such precision. Clean welds with no porosity that take wild amounts of stress. Damn good welding for sure... Almost as good as the Pakistanis with their stick machines!
Спасибо. Как всегда все на высшем уровне.
Late today, but here's South Eastern Germany reporting in. Thank you for the entertainment and as always: Have a 'effing great weekend, everybody!
Love watching a true artisan at work!! Of course, it wouldn't happen unless Karen and Homey were applying their unique help!! Hahaha. You guys are wonderful - Keep 'em coming!!! Always look forward to the next one!!
The minute I saw this was video about pins I instantly knew the newly shop made riser blocks would be used. They look awesome after nitriding. Excellent job and video as always.
Respect your honesty for running part used tips, this is reality in life, it works, less waste, better economy, we all do this but many won't show this or admit it, well done.
Another excellent video from you two. Best video to see on a Friday. :)
