You and Curtis at Cutting Edge Engineering both working on motor grader components. He was replacing ring gear tooth sections. He's a fan of your welding expertise, and mentioned that in the comments when your name was brought up.
I like how he expresses his doubts and fears. He's not afraid to tackle hard and new jobs. When he finishes, the jobs looks good and it all works out in the end. Sir, you continue to make these jobs look easy. Wish my welds looked that good, even after grinding.
Especially when we consider that someone like me wouldn’t get ANYWHERE near that project; as it’s almost destined to fail. Sometimes we look at something and say it’s all kinds of flipped up and can’t be fixed…..but this dude just dives right in.
@@ricktalbott9611 Exactly Right! How did you know, Rick? Both the scientist and the artist are, like Jacob, open to learning on each effort. Someone said be careful because there is nobody easier to fool than yourself.
Will it work? Well you will never know if you dont try it. Thats whats so great about Isaac. Hes not afraid to give it a shot. My father was born in 1914 and he always said "someone built it, so you can fix it if it breaks"
Probably cast steel vs cast iron since it welded up so nicely and didn't immediately crack after welding. Very creative solution. Your "I don't know if this is going to work, but I'll give it a shot" attitude + ingenuity = pretty awesome result." My hat's off to you Isaac.
Is this man a great teacher and craftsman or what??? I have a small farmstead and a 110v 135 amp mig for repairs and light projects, but whenever I have a project or repair, I ask myself, "How would Isaac attack this"!! Very methodical, even with repairs he has never done. Thank you sir!!!
So far our operators havent managed to destroy a circle gear box .But when they do I now know the secret formular to fix it . Thank you Isaac . you are a genius .
Yet another skill demonstrated. You constantly amaze me with your skills and the practical way that you come up with solutions and make it look easy. True sign of a master of his craft. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👍👍
Apart from your exceptional welding skills, I am in awe how you managed to center those sleeves. I'd have attempted making a flat template that would bolt to the other surface and then use it to transfer the centering on the broken piece. I'd still be on the job... You are a true welding master
I like your attitude.....could be the rods, could be me. I have learnt more from you in 3 hours watching your vlogs than I have learnt from other places. Your not a tradesman, your a craftsman, and that's at the top of your field, and you're prepared to admit your stuff ups. Top work.
Issac? You nervous? about anything made of metal? You sir are the one most welders go to for help and inspiration. You Issac are the man. Thank you for your videos.
I appreciate that. I've been at this for a good little while now so I don't get too worried about most repairs. I've mentioned before that the parts come to me already broken so I cant do any more damage to them. they're already broke!😄😄 So, if I can fix it, great, if not, no problem, at least I would be learning something.👍👍
Yeah, Its actually a 2" depth annular cutter but I forgot the wording when I was on camera. I try and only do one take on my videos so sometimes i mess up. oh well. Thanks for the comment and support.
I've been a welder for about 15 years now. Plants, shipyards, and fab shops. I like watching you work to see if I'd work it the same as you. Sometimes yeah, sometimes no, but it always comes out! There's more than one way to skin a cat, and I reckon you showed me one lol. I love your channel
Incredible repair. The message that even if it hadn’t worked out there was value in the learning experience is a strong one. Thanks for taking the time to film it all!
Marvelous repair you did on that circle drive gear box ! I like the way you talk to us as you do the job but some times hard to hear you. I have a cat grader that has 2 of those holes with pull threads !!!! I’m dreading the day when I have to work on it !! 😂 Thanks you are great!!!
An alternative and good method I found is to tack together and butter the iron surfaces with nickel. Once the iron is covered weld it out the rest of the way with mild steel. Works especially good in grooves and where steel repair parts are used. Or when you are running low on expensive nickel filler wire. Anyway in my experience what you are doing here should work well especially since you took the time to insure the parts are all on the same plane so when it's tightened down it will not pull too much on one side or the other. It also appeared that the nickel flowed in nice on the first try, that does not always happen. Great repair in my book. Cheers.
Nice repair. You are one of the rare ones who understand burning out the impurities of the cast in order to get the new material to bond properly. 👌 In 40+ years of doing repairs of all kinds, I've seen a lot of guys make a mess of a repair like that. You definitely have a knack for complex metal repair.👍 New to your channel and already subscribed.🤙
I am a welder and metal worker and I admit I am absolutely not knowledgeable when it comes to welding cast steel or iron. His welding style on it is new to me. I wish he could explain how he does it and give the info on the welding rods he use on casts
@@Frank-Thoresen There are several videos Isaac has done, but even he admits that any kind of cast is complicated to weld because the cast metal itself is full of impurities. Sometimes you are able to seal the impurities in the base pass of the weld and then just build on that, other times you have to grind, clean, and flux it to seal.
@@Frank-Thoresen I'm diesel mechanic of 40 years and have done in the field and on the road repairs that require creative solutions. I caught Isaac's channel quite a while back, but only started commenting about a year ago I think.

You reminds me of the owner of the welding shop we had back in my home town. He used to say “Nothing is impossible, the impossible just takes a little longer and a whole lot more money”.
Hey, from an ald man: I admire you; you are part of ehat mekes life worth living. You keep the wheels turning doing the work that others turn their noses up at. Well done sir.
I am not a welder, machinist or fabricator but I follow for how great you are at solving problems on the fly. Nothing like real world experience. Makes me wana change careers. Keep it up brother.
Watching you problem solve first, then begin the repair work, both keeps my engineering mind alert and and eager to see just how you set about making your ideas work.. As I am normally a noisy person you keep me quiet and happy to see your work through to the finished product, and happy to see a craftsman of his trade - Thank you for the video-- Ian - UK.
You are one smart and adaptive person sir!! It's a pure pleasure to watch you work your craft! Your taste in music for the videos ain't bad either. Thank you very much
IMPRESSIVE!!! Excellent results. Thanks for showing even the parts where you didn’t like the looks of it and ground it down and redid it. Some people edit out the real world stuff. Your work is amazing.
Wow! That’s an awesome job. Really professional. Your problem solving skills are brilliant but they are nothing if you don’t have the ability, skill and experience to match. You have all of that and more. I salute you sir.
As always great craftsmanship. In the past working in plants i found mig 035 ERNIFeCi wire with 75 25 gas works really good when you have to maintain position on cast.
I agree. I think that is a large part (the lack of 'attitude' that many welders get for some reason) of why his videos are just pleasant and relaxing as well as instructive. The man is a true artist and a great pleasure to watch as he figures these challenging tasks out. I always walk away impressed even though he doesn't try to impress anyone. Doesn't get much better no matter the topic.
Wow, impressive work as always. Please let us know if it holds. It'd be really cool to see a picture of this part back on the grader so we can see where it goes and what its function is.
What a great SAVE. It sure helped the guy out. Very interesting type of repair completed. Called for jack of all trades and yep, you filled the billet. Thank you so much for sharing this save.
Results were perfect. Repair was well thought out before just doing a patch job. Saved several thousands of dollars with repair such as this. Very impressive.
Watched it again Issac. You ought to be very proud of this job. Had me worried there on the last position you trimmed off. You made it look almost like factory! Great job
Last I know and tried welding cast vertical is very difficult flat position preferred. Preheat and post heat is important to minimize thermal expansion and contraction to prevent cracking. Very well done repair nice machine work for a talented welder 👍
I'm with you on if it's already broke I can't mess it up trying to fix it. I enjoy your repair video's. As a machinist I've fixed a lot of broke stuff.
great job , you made something useable again , hope your customer appreciates all the hard work you put in , thanks for taking the time to do the video
Awesome work man. I love watching you, being in the field myself, your natural talent and clear, to the point thinking is inspiring and makes me want to better myself. You are a very talented my friend, so glad I stumbled across your channel. 👍🏻
Damn fine repair, and the video is awesome. No fast forward, watched it all real time and just enjoyed it. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this, I know it’s a lot!!!
Nice job. Looks like it should have been designed liked that. Some future mechanic will appreciate your work. I love watching your welding channel. Gives me ideas for projects I have to weld. Cast Iron is not my favorite….
yea, I am sure there is 10 million dollar machine out there that could do that; but, it would still take a human to screw it up. 😆 This is when skill is just art.
That is an amazing repair. A lot of guys would have thrown that casting on the scrap pile and ordered a new one. The finish you put on the job after the welding is incredible.
Around 25:00 From one welder to another. The second to last number on your welding rod tells you what position it's intended to be used in. A 1 means all positions, 2 means horizontal and flat, and a 3 is for flat only. You probably already knew this, but if not, now you know.
You are AWESOME !! That is work of a true welder who takes pride in his work and truly enjoys what he does !! Finding a way to get it done and doing it and a quality job at the same time . Keep up the excellent work !! And I love the auto shade lens so see we can watch you weld had to be expensive thank you !! 👍👍👍
I still say it - stick welders should never be dismissed. Might be a very old method of welding but they work. The finished result is superb. Definitely worth trying a fix on it.
@@LynnHarris18 i agree with both of you. i,m 76 and been welding since then too.in repair work there is a need for both types. mig welders are more controllable than stick and you can almost make them talk. i resisted the need to get a mig for a long time too. now i would,nt be with out one. i,m afarmer so repairs are a regular occurence! it,s like computers--i did,nt get one till i was 70 --now i wish i had got one 25 yrs ago.! it,s the university of everything . if you want to know about anything it,s all on you tube
