    Hey viewers thanks for watching todays video of repairing the cracked shear attachment cylinder. That weld joint needed a bit more than sticky tape this time 😂 how did you like this repair? 😎👍

    I worked in a rock quarry here in the usa. I did everything in house except for the cylinder work. I would pull the cylinder off and send it out for whatever ever it needed. It's good to see the work that goes into quality repairs. I have since retired but still like to watch a person that takes pride in their work.

      nice to have a set of electric rolls to get that perfect bead . good to see the pre heat too . i used to repair and build new rams for all kinds . trick is lots of heat. before , during and after the welds are done . once you start welding dont stop till all the lands are full . always try to run a min 330 amps 1.6 mm 11ni flux core . lay those lines like rolling rope onto a drum . never ever weave ! shows up in the x-ray as waves . instant fail

    I am a mechanic not a welder, but I truly appreciate watching a craftsman doing his (or her) job with skill and precision. However, Your channel would not be what it is today without the skill of person behind the camera. Your video shots are clear, sharp, and positioned to show the necessary steps without being redundant and are educational. Good video editing is a skill not easily learned and your editor is excellent. I and I am sure many other of your viewers would like to be introduced to the "voice" and maybe some information on the video equipment you use.

    My dad was a Korean war vet and used his GI school bill to attend and graduate Voreehs tec in NY, he was a tool and die, guy. I still can smell the machine oil he came home with coming from his clothes. My first year of high school after Junior High exams was a tech High school where I learned mechanical drafting, blueprint reading, and understanding. I remember shop classes (electrical, woodworking, and metal ). I did not pursue this skill but find it extremely valuable in working on my house and building projects I take on...The irony of this is I followed my father into the military ( a hospital corpsman ) and used my GI school bill to become a BA IN Nursing (RN) and an Associate Degree in Computer Science (I build and network computers with LINUX and Widows). Yet the most joy I get is from using tools and building, My Father was right. We need to bring trade schools back to our youth instead of Internet or computer interest.
