You and many other creators often thank the audience profusely. My understanding is that KZfaq does not pay significantly. So I don't understand this? You bring a camera along with the work you do, go to all this extra labor to film everything and then turn around and edit it all. You are quite literally entertaining us. So why are you thanking us? Shouldn't it be the other way?

Okay -- dude! Here's the thing. If you want to make some assumptions about some of your viewers, or at least one... :) Assume... I've never done anything like this. I might not even have seen your other vids. All this is brand new, and it's interesting, because I like to learn about things I don't know! I think it would be pretty hard for you to say anything that would be "too much detail." You seem to be a man of few words, but... I could use more! Tell me what's up, what you're thinking, why you're doing it, the thread size of the tap, the nature of the paint, whatever you can think of! If you're worried about them being too long, just keep doing what you're doing -- looking for which bits are going to be the most interesting, and which bits might be a little redundant and can be trimmed out. There's got to be a feeling somewhere inside you "I like doing this part," and I probably have the same feeling. Trust your instincts, Luke! And finally... in recent vids... Ain't freshly brass pretty? And don't the chips flying all over in the work light look all wonderful sparkly? That's ART. :-)

@alanharney52782 жыл бұрын
Gary, I'm curious about how strong a brazed joint like that is. For example, if it were necessary could a helicoil be put in a hole like that? Would the dissimilar metals hold it tight enough? I've never brazed anything so I have no clue. As always, nice work and thanks for the bridge pix!
@OldIronMachineWorks2 жыл бұрын
Alan, in this situation the brazed repair should be as strong as the original ear. Adding a Heli coil would only be required if the threads were damaged, but it would not give much extra straight to the ear itself. I appreciate you watching. Gary
@kens.88342 жыл бұрын
Together with "another water-pump rebuild," in your words, it was an excellent class in brazing repair of cast iron ! Didn't take much to freeze-in that thread insert . I like the way you leave in those problems that can occur instead of editing them out -- everybody learns much more that way . Now you got me interested in seeing more about those big gearboxes . Is that something you have coming-up in the future ?
@OldIronMachineWorks2 жыл бұрын
Ken, what looked like a threaded insert was what was left of the bolt. After drilling and die grinding you just peal out what’s left of the threads. And when I get time I want to show more about the big gearbox rebuilds. I appreciate you stopping by the channel and leaving a comment. Gary

@OldIronMachineWorks2 жыл бұрын
I have never seen anybody use nickel rod as a brazing rod, it’s normally a stick rod that you apply with an arc welder. I see more failures in the welds with nickel rod than I do with a proper brazing job.
