As soon as you shrunk that broken bolt the result was obvious, it would fall out of the hole. You sounded amazed.

That's the difference between a professional and a welder who's not a fast welder nor a slow welder but rather a half-fast welder. Recently saw another KZfaqr machinist say he never paints a job. His comment was "let it rust"!

The hits just keep on coming, and as usual, this is another home run. Great tip on bolt extraction! That line boring sure seems more complicated tha meets the eye. Setup must be very precise. I really appreciate you including some setup sequences in these videos, because that is where the real learning takes place. I’m gonna have to get me one of those flathead angle grinders now!

@tetedur377 6 ай бұрын

I've watched Isaac from IC Weld, and Kurtis from Cutting Edge Engineering all follow the same process. Well, other than Isaac doing it no the ground on the job site. That's almost never a good time. I'm too old to do that crap anymore, but I appreciate watching. Did you have to run a tap through that bolt hole? It looks like somebody got jiggy with the 3/4 impact, or maybe even a 1" drive, as flat as those thread bolts were.

@bobtrailers4561 Ай бұрын

Also The carbide inserts you are using probably come with a little radius on the point of them. Sometimes that radius Is too much for the two and a quarter bar and will start chattering. You can try micro 100s. It's a braised bit and they also come with a little radius on them but you can sharpen it down to a point with a green wheel on a pedestal grinder.

When that stuck bolt came out I gasped in relief. What a delight that was! Excellent job!! I've seen you use a second bar as reference before. That is certainly an excellent way to get the centering cones in correctly. Thanks for another very informative and educational (as well as entertaining) video! Have a peaceful Sunday.

@tetedur377 6 ай бұрын

In more than 30 years of turning wrenches, in the Navy, and in the civilian world as a professional mechanic, it never gets old, that sense of relief. Back before they had mag drills, we had one in a 390 Ford pickup where a bolt had broke off in the head. That was a team effort, and if you know anything about team efforts, we don't do that, unless we can flag some time on the job. We failed to extract it. Finally the shop foreman had a guy come in and blasted it out of the head with a torch. We were high-fiving and carrying on like we'd done the final extraction. Well, we did loosen it up for him, so.....

Nice job. That slimer grinder is a great addition to your toolbox. I wish I had one, but Milwaukee tools are super expensive here in the UK, almost double the price with some models. I tend to buy Makita or Dewalt tools as these in my opinion are good value for money. Plus, they are best suggested by several of the larger experienced tool outlets used by professionals. Perhaps Milwaukee could send me a free grinder to test and promote for them? What say you Milwaukee? Ryobi sent me several of their tools all using the same size interchangeable battery's. The set cost around £450 and all I had to do was use and promote but their grinder burnt out in no time at all as did the saw. I guess you really do get what you pay for which is, a waste of money on a Ryobi.

Most customers want an OEM repair. Adding a bushing that’s not factory can cause a big headache for someone in the future. Such as trying to fix it with all factory parts and realizing they need a custom bushing.
