operators that are not operators are my favorite operators, keeps me in business. that ln-25 is great, i got one thats like 30 years old and still works like brand new
I had to repair one this week after a 16 year old had been at the controls. Not as big as this but an opening bucket off a small loader. About 250kg (550lb) it has a week point that breaks and then bends around a pivot pin before snapping completely under the force of two rams.🇬🇧
This was one of my favorite videos. As a hobbyist starting later in life, the step by step overview for the repair, given a short video, was excellent and demonstrated how to go about a big repair. Not that I will do those, but the thought process and techniques will help me as I tackle repairs on my own small equipment.
Bob and Cricket...the Dynamic Duo, Really love this rebuild.....not really a repair it is so thrashed......one step at a time, sure hope the viewers take note of how careful you are......and precise.... one day I will get over to the shop to pester you two.... sorry to be so late to the show today, but I was actually working...... yes, the old geezer was working cutting stainless with the band saw and laying out a Bigillion holes to drill... and did a big pot full of stainless mig last night sticking 14 gauge to 11 gauge fillets and trying not to burn through or cook it.....lovely as they say somewhere.....Bravo Guys, Paulie B
Currently building a new EX 5600 bucket with a fill capacity of 46 cubic yard. My crew and I also started a repair 106 cubic yard ESCO dragline bucket repair. Been building and repairing buckets for 11 years.
I agree it's not always the operators fault something breaks. Seen many new buckets rip apart, because manufacturers don't always build to last. They build them to sell. Quality control. I've heard this too many times, the operator tore it up. Lol
There are times, per Lincoln Electric Process Engineering, that you need to use an under-matched filler metal. This is one of those times. The cutting edges and side plates are so hard that the stress need somewhere to go. The softer weld metal deposit is that relief point.
Well done ...Wondering if you guys did 100% pen on that lip. I have notice most buckets are not factory full pen. Also why mig ? My self be grabbing the 1/16th dual sheild?
We did not full pen however we put in a heavy bevel, overkilled our stacks and put in heavy 1" plate gussets. The factory was not full pen either and the bucket owner assured me of his operator error.
Good job . Getting done anyway possible thinking on your feet . If you want see another way look at cutting edge engineering Australia . Has few rebuilds and ones that he was able to re skin them . Way to go guys from a machinist not a welder . Keep turning and burning . Burn them rods into cash .
In my experience when that type of material is heated like that it's never the same it will always be weaker there all that heat anneals it but replacing all that would not be cheap whatsoever
I agree. We gave the customer the option to replace but they chose the Frankenstein rebuild route. We did stack some heavy gusset plates to help accommodate for that. Thanks for the feedback
Question do you specialize in heavy equipment repair? The reason I ask is that I've never seen that type of bracing to the inside of the cutting edge. Outside on the bottom of bucket floor and to the side plates we put them on for wear call heel shrouds. Please I'm not knocking your welding skills, your both very good welders it just looks like more of a bandaid. Now i have seen factory reinforcements on the cutting edge to side plate but it was on huge dragline buckets or some old model machines.

I do these types of these repairs as my main source of income. Tons of hardfacing as well. Very cool video. I need to get a needle scaler.
this should be a good one, just got my Everlast 225,!
Jealous
Now that's a bucket repair !
🙏🏼thanks buddy
These are some of my favorite videos. Real world application and the extra work that goes into welding. 👌👌
🙏🏼👍🏼thanks for the feedback
Thanks for sharing!
That was awesome. I love welding. I weld for fun and love the challenge of it. This video was great. Glad I found this. TY!! App downloaded!
Bob and Cricket...the Dynamic Duo,
Really love this rebuild.....not really a repair it is so thrashed......one step at a time,

one day I will get over to the shop to pester you two....
sorry to be so late to the show today, but I was actually working......
yes, the old geezer was working cutting stainless with the band saw and laying out a Bigillion holes to drill...
and did a big pot full of stainless mig last night sticking 14 gauge to 11 gauge fillets and trying not to burn through

Thanks Paulie!

I use mostly E7010 of various diameters as it tends to be more elastic and able to withstand vibration and impacts.
Where do you get your rods?

So excited to see how well you're doing! Great Video man!! Great job!!!
Awesome work! Very informative 💯 👏
Thanks homie!
Good stuff in here, some useful tips I can use-- I've got some heavily used loader buckets to fix, and try to keep from needing to be fixed twice.
Dam Bob talking shit on the operator 🤣😂 sound like me
I agree it's not always the operators fault something breaks. Seen many new buckets rip apart, because manufacturers don't always build to last. They build them to sell. Quality control. I've heard this too many times, the operator tore it up. Lol
Nice job
Hell yeah.
great vid. thanks
Fantastic work really enjoyed watching it great skills you both have I bet that was hard work.
Thank you, thanks for the feedback 👍🏼... Most big jobs have their challenges but all of us as welders have the power to overcome.
Good stuff Bob! 👊🏼
🙏🏼Thanks Jess!
Nice one
👍🏼 thank you
Those extra long teeth create a load disadvantage for the bucket. I’m not surprised it tore.
Damn that was amazing
🙏🏼thank you!
i like this👍
Thanks!👍🏼
I haven't seen red rod in years
5p+ is the way to go unless you enjoy eating sparks
great repair!!!! GREAT REPAIR!!! I do have a question.... why not 11018 rods

What size flux wire are you running? I wish you guys would say what type and size consumables you use. The brand is not necessary,
Very interesting for Your job sure. . . . And me make the big bucket in Indonesia . . I'm scary if my bucket like that . .
#myfavbohlerstickelectrode - Nice choice with the Bohler 7018.
Well done ...Wondering if you guys did 100% pen on that lip. I have notice most buckets are not factory full pen. Also why mig ? My self be grabbing the 1/16th dual sheild?
Your on to it bro! Most bucket lips I've seen rip of are due to not welding the lip whith full pen!👍
We did not full pen however we put in a heavy bevel, overkilled our stacks and put in heavy 1" plate gussets. The factory was not full pen either and the bucket owner assured me of his operator error.
Good job . Getting done anyway possible thinking on your feet . If you want see another way look at cutting edge engineering Australia . Has few rebuilds and ones that he was able to re skin them . Way to go guys from a machinist not a welder . Keep turning and burning . Burn them rods into cash .
Why didn’t you use the mig to weld out the sides ?
We are just rod hands so we typically lean on electrode over wire.
Did you use AR plate for the gussets inside or just regular a36? Just curious
A36 was what we had in shop but it was ¾" thick.
@@bobhigginbotham9035 I don't blame ya. It looked good!
Wish your app would accept my info, but sadly it won't.
It is still in beta testing. It will be out next week :)
That's a nice job you're doing there but don't call it a field repair 👍👍🇺🇸
Thanks. Maybe better worded from the field😬
Eagle 10,000 is not the same as a 225. 225 have 25v CV power . Eagle is CC only
In my experience when that type of material is heated like that it's never the same it will always be weaker there all that heat anneals it but replacing all that would not be cheap whatsoever

Question, do you specialize in heavy equipment repair?
I noticed the router to lip connection was welded without full penatration ! A big no-no if U don't want to tear a lip off!
@UCZyN8PhdOS9IyaMFjUYnBOQ hahaha I've forgotten more about fabrication and welding of earthmoving equipment 🤗
