would you consider selling parts from it

it will not work !!!! this is sad but crappy repair

Thinking you should use car tire rubber.

Very nice, Always wanted one, to do my Jobs. NO Horse's

Good morning, and just wanted to say that I have just watched Old Red series again. I just so love that piece of amazing machinery, have you any thoughts on if you are going to some more videos on Old Red soon?

I got a van Norman duplex mill for free, cause the quill was stuck. I've fixed up a lot of old machining equipment, and for me, 9x out of 10, some well meaning person saw what looked like a grease fitting, and pumped it full of grease, when those tight tolerances want a nice thin oil. I like to hose it down with something that will cut the now old petrified grease, like marvels or diesel. I can't remember the name, but they sell this little tool you fill up with lube, then put it on a petrified grease fitting and whack it with a hammer, it forces the fresh lube in past the crusty grease, and helps start getting it thinned out so you can flush it out. My duplex mill has the monster 5c taper head that can do vertical or horizontal milling, and then it's got a west german knockoff of a j head Bridgeport that attaches to the ram that supports the far end of the horizontal mill cutter spindle. I really like it since I don't have a ton of shop space. I mostly just do engine machining for a guy who restors 1930's ford's, and early willys, bore dirtbike cylinders for the neighbor kids, and work on my own junk. Oh, a slick trick on those van norman mills, they were available with a power feed that ran an indexing dividing head, so you can cut helical gears manually, without cnc! I found a small 10x45" lathe that can fit on my big mill table, you can do some whacky stuff with that combo too.

Excellence If you can't spot it you better watch more.

as i watched you try to load it on the trailer,it came to me wouldn't it have been easier if you removed the blade from the grader??? just wondering !!!!!

I'm 67 and I have to say that one of the things I get from your channel is that it gets me off my ass and gets me out fixing my own stuff that's been sitting around for years. You're good! I like the way you work.

what is the air compressor your using, i would like to get me one

Maybe next video building a locking cabinet for the trailer to hold all the cables and rods. 😁

Hey Matt. The big R is there right now. Why not do i it while you have the chance

Great Job! What's the part number for Shopline Hardner used with the tractor paint?

Instead of modifying the smaller muffler, why not seal the existing exhaust hole and cut a new hole to work with the small muffler?

That motor moves, and could break faster. Love you videos👍

You live in a cold climate. Do you not add water to your coolant mixture?

Safety second…

Super job! Well done. I am inspired now!

Wicked nice work man and that’s a awesome machine and glad you got to save it from the scrap heap

What a fantastic restoration! The welder looks beautiful man. And nice touch on the CAT bolt on the mantle piece!

You can stack hole saws into eachother, and use the inside smaller one as the center, to center the bigger outer one. Thats how we make 3/4 or 1" etc punch outs on electrical boxes the next size up.

Should brace the muffler to the engine that way it moves when the engine is vibrating while running

Great Video!!!

Loose the beard, it doesent suit you, you look like a hill-billy.

Very nice and worth the investment compared to new millers.

You should never wear a hood shirt with string on, it could get hook in to motor and put your face in to the motor!

For safety reasons the 240v outlet should have a double pole breaker. If only one of those breakers trips the other side of the line will be hot making for a safety hazard. Very nice restoration!

super job

Clear coat maybe would protect the paint a bit

i found a mig welder on the roadside it didn't work but a good going over and a refresh of corroded cable ends a tip and she's a worker ive made a few things aready..

Beautiful dude, just beautiful. Love your work.

You should have fitted resilient rubber engine mounts with earth bonding to the frame on one mount., you may find that manifold may crack through engine vibration with the silencer being mounted solid . But you have done a great job well done 👍

Have you done earth/ground bonding tests ? Engine and generator to frame and panels after all that panting of panels and frame?

Am I right, are you a self taught welder?

I love your videos so keep on putting them on there

Decades ago, I got my hands on some aluminum roofing that had been in contact with the ground. In some places, it crumbled into white powder. When you said aluminum I remembered that white powder.

to answer your question as to why you had to hold the start button for an extended period of time is because of the lower voltage. you did not have enough voltage to hold in the run contact. running at 240 vac 3 ph will naturaly give you the voltage to hold in the contact.

Hi My Dear Friend Very Good Job ❤❤❤❤❤

You have done a lovely job👍👍👍👍❤️😎😎😎

I think you should changed out the exhost pipe for the flapper.

Yep

I wouldn't do any more to big red and what has to be done best part of the Chevrolet go ahead and do a video on it cuz I'll show watch it

Always enjoy your videos.

For the tank - fogging oil.

awesome job Matt 🙂

I know this may seem weird, but i think ya should do it. Put this video on a flash drive and put it in a little keybox on the inside. In 20 or 30 years when someone repeats this process that would be a cool time capsule for them to find and may help them in the process

Beautiful rebuild of a nice little wielder. Well done!

love content! Thanks fer the video

If I were you to help to protect the paint I would go over it with 3 to 4 coats of clear to help with paint chips!

I have seen parts on turbos painted with the VHT glow red and cool down and the paint was fine even after glowing red
