Thank you to every one of you who supports me by watching my videos! If you want to check out my Patreon page link is above in the description. Look forward to the next project with you!
Happy to support you Tim, I love this channel and you've helped me make some money blacksmithing so I think I actually owe you one! 🤣😁
That outhouse comment had me roaring
Hey please look up the spiffinbrit, he has a video explaining how to get more views and subs. TH-cam is broken, this is your chance to have more real people see your videos.
Whoa hold on I thought you would have had maybe at least 500,000 subscribers I thought you did with the quality of your content only now am I looking at your actual subscriber count and I'm kind of ... Well underwhelmed more people need to know about you a lot more do... I'll check out the patreon page and donate when I get money
You need to make some Titanium Inserts for the Power Hammer!
You forgot the third type of blacksmith:
The guy who wishes he could get his hands on a power hammer.
i never forged and i want one
We call those hobbyists
Like me 😁😁
You gotta start somewhere!
I may have to check that crank bearing too... I have a grease cup underneath, but not sure how it connects with that large cavity... great to see the green color again!
The housing on this one has a grease nipple so it just has to have a bunch pumped in. If you have a bushing, then (at least with rubber bushings in cars) you shouldn't ever let grease get on as it degrades them
You shouldn't have a bushing though as there not for rotating parts, but more as a small shock absorber. You might just have a journal bearing. And if you need an oil cup underneath then check your bolt torques and bearing seals cos they shouldn't leak any oil
I'll probably never blacksmith in my life but love seeing your thought process to problem solving. Keep up the great work!
It's very easy to get into it, as long as you have a place to do your work in
me whos watched tim for like a year “wait it’s GREEN???”
It's amazing the quality of these older machines. For it not to be greased for years and everything is still okay. Also the old girl shined up pretty good.
I've been working on old machinery for over fifty years, that grease fitting was common, I began replacing them with zerk fittings, in the sixties, generally they are based on standard pipe thread, 1/8 or 1/4 inch, and then you use one grease gun for the whole machine. Thanks for sharing this, what you found is what I've found most of my life, old machinery was well enough made to survive even violating basic rules of maintenance. The old machines never die.
Tim! you put your bearing cover on backwards, the first one, back by the rear flywheel. In the early shot, the oil nipple is on the left, then its on the right as you re-installed it. Unless you filmed from both sides of the hammer. I would check it out in case its a problem. Cheers
I noticed that too, and it was definitely backwards. The nipple orientation went from away from to towards the flywheel.
Way to go Tim - maintenance, including cleaning, is essential for any mechanical device. Especially metal working machinery!
Just the outside cleaning made the whole shop look soooo much nicer! Great video as usual. 🙏🏼
The button heads are good style of fitting. We set up 2 differant grease guns .We use them on certain types of machines that require food safe grease and we use regular fittings for regular grease that way nobody puts the wrong grease in a machine
If it is still breathing oil you can make a catch-can for the vent. When it’s full you can reuse the oil too.
The rings in the outer bearing housing are supposed to be split.
I watched my first video yesterday (chain mail ) then saw the title of this video. I expected to write a comment like "Did I just Click bait my veiwers" but instead I really enjoyed the discovery of this old machine. And the clean up was very impressive. Subscribed and liked the video instead 🤙
Thanks, Tim! Good job.
Thanks Mark for your help! Super appreciate it!
man, making the drama. I can't blame ya.. it's a rough world. God bless man and keep on keeping on!
I had such a visceral sympathetic reaction to the sound of that part falling into the pan!
heard that sickening sound many times in my wreckless,uneducated, maddening tool throwing swearing want to be a good mechanical fix it myself life
Revealing a gorgeous green machine
Was very satisfying to see the ol power hammer get a good cleaning!
I do a lot of bearing work and I believe those are split intentionally. It lets you roll those pieces in and out with the bearing. You should have two bearing on the crank (?) shaft for the drive. One is held in place and is called the captured bearing and one is allowed to move back and forth when the machine heats up and is called the floating bearing. The bearing on the back must be the locked (or capture) bearing.
Patreon engaged. Keep it lit in 2021 Tim! 🇨🇦✊🏻
Great video !
Hey Tim, love your work so I became a patreon! Keep going, I really like your creativity and process. Thanks for bringing us along!
ps on that main bearing quite often the cork wipers are set with a little bit of protusion fort better sealing it will be a set amount so a groove isnt worn in the shaft hope this helps in future
Gr8 job Tim I'm so happy that there was bearings and everything turned out well 👍🍻 she looks gr8 clean n green 😀
3:45 I felt that.
Wow that thing was dirty!I can't believe how great it looks now!
Smart trouble shooting. I felt something like pride watching the hammer get its once every 75 years cleaning. Nice work, and what a great machine. Closing a match box was trick.✌
Grease Lighting - Power to the Hammer !
Absolutely love your videos
I watched a video of a traditional Japanese swordsmith who didn't use power hammers. Instead, he had 4 guys swinging sledge hammers for him. So, fundamentally the same thing. Variations on mechanical hammers have been around for over a thousand years. For as long as guys have been swinging a hammer, they've been thinking "there has to be a better way".
/I built my own power hammer. It is the better way.
Wowsers Tim this video is very interesting. Nice repar. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Can't wait to see ur next videos. Forge on God bless
I have just subscribed to you, my power hammer brother. I have a 300 lb. Beaudry and a 250 lb. Niles Bement utility hammer, myself... that Beche of yours is superb, and green is the perfect color.
I can feel myself getting cancer watching you around all the grease, oil, WD40, and brake fluid. Nasty stuff. It does look much better. Cheers.
Awesome power hammer
WAIT THAT HAMMER WAS GREEN THE WHOLE TIME?!?
Just a heads up. That wd40 will dry up within the hour but in cold weather may stay moist for up to 1 day. It doesn't make a good lubricant because of it. If you have a moving part thats kind of sticky spraying it with wd40 just breaks down the grease or oils that are making it sticky.
She's a beaut now she's had a wash haha, looking good. Can't afford to buy an axe but very happy to be a little giant! Take it easy man!
"DID I WRECK MY POWER HAMMER?"
The answer to *Click-bait titles like this is always NO*
I remember reading something that said you'll always be happier if you read a "did this happen" title on anything the answer is always No just move on with your life you don't need to read the article.
Unless your name is Will!
Big Green lookin' good
Tim keep your tools clean Taylor! 😁😁😁😁😁
The matchbox bit made me laugh
Another great video..
"Never ever does it work out that I was doing something right!" Dude that's so funny. Also I know what you mean bud... LOL
On the open vent hole you may consider some sort of filter to catch the oil spray. That'll help keep things cleaner including your lungs.
Hi from 9th second your works are really great keep going. Love from turkey
I will never tire of watching power hammers detonate boxes of matches.
You got me sweating with the title
Ya, Mark Krause pretty knowledgeable guy. Chatted with him a few times. 👍
The firs blacksmithing videos I saw from Alec steele where he used power hammers I was absolutely amazed at how it worked, that led to me looking into how they work and they are truly amazing pieces of machinery
watching power hammers being restored is honestly fascinating
That was fun.
It must have been really funny when teachers and kids in school called you by your last name.Yo Dyck,come here 😂
I noticed right off that you put the bearing cover on wrong. Go rewatch it and you can see that the grease nipple is facing towards the hammer when you took it off and when you put it back on it’s facing the rear of it. Not sure if it matters or not but I noticed it.
I think you put the baring cap on backwards look at the grees nippel by the big wheel
Agree!
I wanted a second look to see if the camera was on the other side.
Timothy~~~ understand this ~~~~~Manufactured Drama = Less Subscribers . Click bait sucks !! comments ??
Come on dude You must keep the spirit alive ,
Reminded me of the scene from A Christmas Story, "Oooooooh Fuuuuuuuuuuudge." 😂 😂
That looks so nice! Now that all that grease isn’t on the outside.
Maintenance! give your stuff some TLC! Love it! Watching at 02:30! (from Sweden).
would love to see some merch tim to also help support you
Timothy, I honestly hope they are not jerking you around on the bids for your hammer. As the people who have drove the price as high as it is now, have zero history with eBay auctions , I would ask eBay for support on the auction, they can fix ignorance real quick.
You forgot to clean the top of the hammer buddy.....the same happens for me with my kitchen cubbords😂
I love your videos....
That is a high pressure grease fitting.
Very interesting !!!!!!!!!!
Looks like a common 5/8 button head grease zerk
That is one awesome power hammer Tim , They don't make as good as that any more. (:
Hi Timothy, when I saw the nameplate of the machine, I saw that the machine came from Germany! I would really be interested in how old the part is and when it was built? And how did you get this cool machine? Hückeswagen is around 25km away from Cologne. I can even find an address for the Bêché company, but unfortunately no website. I myself live in Bocholt near the Dutch border. PS: "Made in Germany" usually lasts a lifetime! :-) I wish you all the best for your channel! Stay healthy!
Bearing or bushings grease is a way of transferred/storage oil.
That's a button head grease fitting, it uses a block that slides over it in a groove to grease it.
I want one! I am an old lady and my hammer arm ..well she ain't what she used to be, many long years ago. I don't have room for a beautiful chambersburg, but I would love to find a 50 or 100 pound little giant. Rare as hens teeth in the pacific northwest!
Hello you put the bearing cap on the opposite to what it came off. Dont think that's good what do you think?
Did you remember to grease that main barring?
Sir, you should have prefilled the cover with grease(half-full)and then put it back on and then greased it.Much easier. Kind regards a DEMOOR powerhammer owner.Blacksmith Filip Ponseele-Belgium
"Oh Tim" is the 3rd most vulgar swear word in Canada.
build some sort of breather for that hole, much like one for a turbo car, use a catch can setup.
The thing you pull out at 7 min is an grease nipple. It’s used a lot in german vehicles and i guess also machines. See my channel we use them on our Nashorn restoration. Jack of all trades Nashorn restoration
Maybe check the other hammer next week? And now the crack an egg on the wine glass test.
A man who truly loves his power hammer...
We use that style of grease plug on our machines at work
Did you go back and grease the main bearing? You said you would do it at the end but I didn't see you do it.
hi timothy in the uk one name for those button nipples is a tecelamit type i used to have them all over my bus so i got the adapter and screwed in a more normal zerck type it now lives in my grease an oiler box ready for the rare occasion i find one of the old tecelamit ones witch are great no leaking able to withstand an immense amount of pressure without getting stuck on or popping off great vidio for us thanks
We have those button style greasers on our jaw crusher where I work.
Titanium Power Hammer incoming
I think on the top cover of that plate you took off - it looked like a grease nipple? Idk if it would have been there if it was a bushing
It's a flush grease fitting!
Merci bien !
Holy shit it’s green! I thought it was painted a grey-ish color 😂
I think most of the old machines are either painted a shade of green or grey
yes
Powered hammers have been in widespread use since the 12th century (Edit: in Europe), how is that not 'traditional' by now?
The Chinese have had power hammers since 200bc
@@ianturpin9180 how they powered them. There was no electricity or petrol at that time?
@@MohsinExperiments water wheels probably or horses/donkeys
@@MohsinExperiments waterwheels to power trip hammers. Or on a smaller scale foot operated treadle hammers.
@@ianturpin9180 I'm not sure the sort of people using 'tradition' as an argument against power hammers know that China, India, and the Middle East had metal at all, and I'm sure that it wouldn't convince them if they did. Had a man try to convince me that Damascus steel was developed in Spain, and even refused to believe that Damascus is a real place! That said I really should have indicated that I meant Europe, and I'm going to edit it to make sure it doesn't cause any confusion.
Gordan Ramsey: "There's so much oil in your power hammer, the fucking US wants to invade it."
Feel like a easier solution would have been to just replace the fitting instead of using an adapter. Just so that in the future all the fittings would be the same and also for future owners.
At least you didn't replace the ring with your phone 😂
Lol. You shoulda known right away by the grease zeert that you had a bearing. With bushings there was typically a oil fill resistor.
$120 set-up...wow so happy
Looks exactly the same as the grease fittings on track rollers of older caterpillars
I wonder if there's some way you could make youtube content out of your work related projects, that might help pay for the just-for-fun ideas. Anyway, love the videos, thanks Tim!!
Hay I was wondering if you could do a quick video on the thing where you weld a puddle of metal and hit it with a hammer and sparks fly everywhere if you want an example just reply to this and I can email you a video thanks
I guess it makes sense just to use wd40 saves alot of cans but I would definitely recommend starting fluid to clean grease, oil, and grime solid cleaning agent.
I like when you destroyed the match box
Same here. I laughed out loud.
i never thought that the hammer was supposed to be green ! 😆
