Safety: I worked in a coach-building shop. None of the guys would use safety glasses, or welding gloves, because they thought that the safety gear "was for girlies', until one guy had a shard of hot aluminium from ACROSS the workshop, go into his eye. It took three of us to hold him down until the ambulance arrived. The next day the Workplace Safety Inspectors arrived and closed the workshop down for a week until the safety standards were brought up to date., including safety cages on the equipment, portable welding screens and safety training for everyone. The owners were prosecuted, and copped a huge fine,

Most ironic thing I ever saw: contractor was engaged to build guarding for some old machinery. Cutting & grinding without glasses, long hair not tied back, no gloves, no hearing protection, and no guard on his grinder.

Lee you’ll be spending time in the big house if Isaac has an injury due to your lack of discipline regarding PPE. Also agree with the comments about the clutch housings, if they’re not coaxial with the flywheel they’ll judder like buggery. I don’t know if it’s an effect of the video but the flywheel looked to be turning way too fast. If you’re using tungsten inserts and aiming for a maximum of 600 ft per min on a 18 inch flywheel (outer circumference circa 5ft) then you should be running around 120 rpm.

I have used both an angle grinder (with an adapter to use a 6"x1" stone) and a manufactured unit, both gave excellent results but the manufactured unit was quieter to run, 3600 rpm motor, belt driven to arbor. When flywheels put on surface table, less than 0.0001 deflection measured compared to approx 0.0004 using carbide or ceramic tooling with no hard spots. I would rough cut using a tool and finish with a grind, starting from center and working out.

Wow Lee and Isaac .... Those Flywheels ..... ?????? ..... Now That is Super Bad Engineering .... I Wonder IF Perhaps it isn't best to 'Plug' the Original Holes ( Just Sothat Nobody can get confused ) and have them Redrilled/Tapped on the Correct PCD .... Let a GOOD Engineering Shop do them on a CNC Mill and Save the Program after ALSO building a Jig for Location on the Crank Boss Face/Diameter. This should Hopefully Greatly Reduce the Balancing Issues and have a 'Half Descent' end result without having to removes Massive amounts of weight. They SHOULD Have come in Correct in the 1st Place... Those Bad ones should Actually be Rejected and Returned to the Supplier .... Best to ALL from ChCh, NZ

Surely those flywheels need to be re-drilled then. Even if you balance them as they are to leave the clutch running off centre sounds like a no brainer to me.

@TonyRule Ай бұрын

Correct. The pressure plate will be moving eccentrically to the friction plate/gearbox input shaft if they're not corrected. I foresee snapped gearbox input shafts and damaged shaft and spigot bearings if that's not corrected before balancing the assembly.

When i did my apprenticeship in the early seventies 1 year was spent in the machine shop. Working on the lathe a piece of hot swarf hit me in the corner of the eye socket and stuck to the skin.hurt like hell and left a lovely blister so wear your safety glasses or suffer the consequences.

@mrbigvanlife7130 Ай бұрын

I worked with two separate guys who lost eyes, one had a screwdriver that slipped off the wing of a transit as he was under the van. One from a nail that was in a curtain as he pulled it down whilst clearing a property. Both of them were fanatical about safety after the event. Come on guys let’s get a toolbox talk in about safety. If you need help bring in a specialist to risk assess it all for you.

We have had problems with hard spots and I made a grinding jig that mounts on the toolpost for facing the flywheels and rotors (jigged and held between centers). this gives a superior finish and perfectly flat but you have to use a hard grinding wheel and diamond trim periodically

Lots of comments on safety goggles and rightly so, accidents happen so quick, Isaac you are a young man dont risk your eye sight. On building sites theres policy no safety boot or hard hat then no job, Perhaps a new policy for Barum safety goggle worn at all times in workshop along with no lose clothing (hoodie cords etc) could be introduced, lee you are a great guy and care and look after Isaac consider looking after his and your own safety, can not even think what you would feel like if Isaac lost an eye?

@TheMadManPlace Ай бұрын

We used to call those hard spots on the flywheel clutch surface "diamonds" back in the day. We used to do a lot of truck diesel motors and they ALL had diamonds which cost us a shit ton of tool bits. So we made ourselfs an attachment that fitted onto the lathe tool-post bolt, had a cup grinding wheel and a 3/4 hp motor. Wound up not having to take nearly as much material off of the flywheel to get the face true again. Of course for this operation the chuck was spinning A LOT SLOWER. And the customers LOVED the fact that it was a ground finish. A number of fleet owners used to pull the flywheel when they were doing a new clutch (even though the surface was not too bad) and have us just lick it clean again to make sure that the surface was as good as it could be to lengthen the life of the clutch plate. Funny thing is that those fleets are still in business almost 50 years later. A good maintenance ethic can save you down time and expensive emergency repair bills which makes for a profitable and long lasting business.

@@damianbutterworth2434 yes. The customer was complaining about clutch judder and they are trying to solve it by balancing. Balancing won't do anything to solve the clutch judder. Having a clutch that is running out of true could certainly cause clutch judder though. The problem is they don't know how to drill new holes in the flywheel, ask them to work out the X and Y pcd coordinates from clocking in the bore. No chance Lee could work that out, that's why they are going the bodge it route and hoping for the best.
