Can you weld a collar around that exposed grease fitting to protect it?

I don't have time to watch anybody who doesn't know not to try to machine rebar. You are just too unsafe with what you do. I serouusly hope you don't get hurt...

Interesting comment I appreciate that. Why is machining rebar so dangerous? It might be good to show other viewers as this is the first I am hearing of this?

Man you did such an awesome job prepping, you could have used any paint. I wonder if you can use the Tractor Supply Ford Blue on that drifter?

Sure could. It won’t last forever similar to the rustoleum that’s on the drifter now

I used to own a delivery company and I just bought second hand cars and painted them with this, As long as the people knew the the Red. black and blue cars and trucks were mine that's all that mattered. I never fixed the dents or faded and cracked bumpers or anything because the worse they looked the better Painted them with a brush and roller and yes it looked like crap we had paint runs and bad lines and everyone pointed out how bad it looked and that was Great because any free advertising is good advertising , We had people call to order things just to see the paint jobs, All the cars were fit for the road I made sure they all passed a legal safety and had new tires and breaks '' safety first '' , I got to know the cops pretty well lol

Sun plays with your eyes. Direct sunlight reflecting off new paint makes it macco. Shine. Look at it under lights for reality √.

Nice job👌🙏 impressed at what you do etc, that was a weird way to measure the depth of the bush to 50 thou, the other end comes out of the vernier, if you put that end on the case & the main body of the rear of the vernier on the bush, close the vernier until it touches the bush that is the depth of the bush sticking out, looks weird when writing it out, hope you understand. 👍
@spankranchgarage17 сағат бұрын
Thanks 👍 I use that end a lot. The top is just as good a surface but because it’s wider I can rest it on the bushing so I know it’s square

Watching your videos has motivated me to learn how to use a lathe i inherited from my father. I am starting from scratch. Unfortunately, I was just a bigger hammer and torch kind of guy when he was alive. I so wish I would've taken the time when he was alive to gain some of his knowledge. Great channel man.

On fitting that collar you used a diy weld on clamp, and said it was ghetto. Do not feel bad about it. Years ago I worked on a pile driving crew. We sank metal sheet piles that needed to be vertical. We would do exactly what you did. Weld on a bracket and pull the piles into alignment with chain. When done cut them off. I have a Case 580SE that needs an extendahoe rebuild. I learned a lot watching this, even though it is a JD. And yes, everything on job like this heavy. I know it well.
