Hi Jere, was out in the mountains so just got back and am watching the final version of your project. It turned out nicely and it's so much better now in the rougher terrain. I also love the wild life you attract to your property! Thanks 👍💪✌

Hi Jere, Nice project results. "A one inch square with unequal sides." :) The accordian fold video transition was neat. Finding the center of that 2x2 without math.. you rebel, you. ;) Another "yes" to plating videos. I'm about to do some more reverse electrolysis for de-rusting. Any chance to use electricity and water without getting zapped is fun. Take care, Joe

Jere - great idea on using the bar clamps as a simple and inexpensive lifting device. Harbor Freight saves the day again!

Extremely well thought out. Great job, Sir

Some great Thinking Outside the Box.

Nice project solution…simple/smart…enjoyed

Yes, to the nickel plating video been waiting for it. As always your videos are very informative nice tip on finding the center hole.

Well done Jere. When I saw the first video I thought where the hell is he going with this. LOL Great solution for us old guys. and yes please do a nickel plating video.

Yes I also would like to see some videos on nickel plating, also enjoy the peaceful music and scenery at the beginning and ending of your videos.

Yes, I'd like to see some nickle plating videos.

Glad to see you “hard at it”. These kill / safe switches can be .%#%~>££€ to fix / troubleshoot.

Jere - great job so far, and I look forward to seeing the finishing touches. I love all of the little tips you share. The one on wetting the pattern paper, so the hot metal doesn't burn it is priceless. I wish I had known that years ago!

Hi Jere, Fine looking modification! As per usual.. lots of care and consideration employed. But I must ask .. why did you not just add motors to the wheelchair and use it as a row-rig for the genset? You could have even used the generator to provide power for the motors. Then, of course.. toe-in or out would have really come into play during those high-speed turns. ;) ... Joe

I laughed out loud at “high speed turn”. Only a race car driver thinks of that.

Hi Jere, this is coming along nicely, that will be very sturdy alright. Will be back for the next one, thanks! 👍💪✌

High speed turn?! What are you towing this behind a go-cart or something. 😂 Jk 👍👍

Hi just watching your video and enjoying it because I am contemplating a Dillion MK 3 torch. I am curious about your torch rest that appears to be a valve and igniter, can you provide info on that setup please? Maybe a video on it and link? Great video btw thanks.

Excellent. Thank you.

I look forward to seeing how you attach the wheels to make it all work.

cool Jere - looking forward to the wheel re-use upgrade video. Glad to see your doing well.

Always enjoy your content!

You are a very clever man, Sir! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Hi Jere, your reference on signs of insanity, spot on. The results won't ever change 🙂 Bigger wheels will make it way easier to move around, that generator with bigger wheels, I'll be here to see it for sure. Thanks! 👍💪✌

Jere - what a simple, straightforward repair. Tie wraps to the rescue - again! I will be very eager to see how you fasten the wheelchair wheels to your generator.

That is a nifty setup where you have an resting arm for the torch that cuts off both gases,and some sort of perennial flame to light up the torch when you lift it from the rack. Is that a home made gadget or something on the market?

What flux gives the best results? Thanks for the demo.

Why are hacksaw blades that strong in comparison? Good job by the way.

Jesus, this was aggravating to watch! I couldn't do it.

Excellent video, Jere. When you say "brass" do you mean some sort of pure brass? I ask because I usually use manganese bronze as a general purpose rod and nickel bronze if I'm more worried about strength. I thought these two were pretty much the standard rods used over the years. I use the standard pink Comweld flux available here in Australia. The silicon bronze was interesting in that it works without flux. I thought silicon bronze mainly became popular because it works with TIG. I've only recently bought a Henrob (DHC-2000) torch and looking forward to getting it set up. Cheers from the land down under.

Exceptionally clear explanation Jere. There appears to be much confusion as to the origin of the Dillon MkIV, Henrob 2000 and the DHC 2000 also known as Cobra Torch. They are almost the same. Detroit Torches claim that the idea came from Sweden. This is simply not true. Since the early 70s the torch was developed and patented by Nicholas Thomas Edward Dillon; a proud Australian who lived in 10 East Street Magill in South Australia (1976). He eventually sold the idea to others! However this is far from the end or the beginning of the story. A very similar pistol gripped torch was designed and patented by Edmond Fouche'; yes a Frenchman. (Not to be confused with Edmund Davies who discovered Acetylene in 1836) Fouche' and his other countryman engineer Charles Picard invented Oxy acetylene welding in 1903. In 1919 Fouche' patented the first version of this pistol grip oxy torch. The same Nicholas Dillon acknowledged the existence of Fouche's torch in his 1976 Australian Patent. He ended up using much of the Fouche' torch in his model. Unfortunately one cannot post here on utube the image of the 1919 Fouche torch. He noted in earlier oxy torches (the long barrel type) " the short period of contact between the two gases in the mixing conduit of the apparatus is insufficient for completely mixing the two gases " Anyone that sees his design will note and appreciate the sheer genius of Fouche' who should be given the real merit of what we now call the Cobra Torch.

S Makes no sense this video was a waste of time

Thanks Jere 👍💪✌

Working smarter not harder….good discussion on tips/methods

Lots of clever ideas here, Jere! I'm sure your tractor will give you many more years of good service.

I kind of think if I went to the trouble of converting to propane I'm not so sure I'd ever run gasoline again.

Power may be out at the gas station also... I've been using 100LL aviation gas from my local airport for years in all my small gas engines. (None of my stuff has catalytic converters). The 100LL doesn't go bad, and costs only a dollar or so per gallon more than regular.

Nice job on the Starter Jere. A bit of tree work I see.

nice but kinda PRICY

Thank you for the video tour. What great memories you have working at Shelby American and driving and setting records in the Dragon Snake ! I remember reading bout that in Hot Rod Magazine in the 60's. Been a Shelby/Cobra fan since I saw my first 289 Cobra in my little town in North Jersey in early 1963. I was 9 years old and still love 'em. Hope you are still doing well. Definitely have to visit The Cobra Experience one day. Thanks again !

I have a half a dozen shears in the toolbox that will get some love. Thanks

If you want to learn how to wire this switch? Forget it. Dude rambling about everything. Ya simply can't follow what the hell he's talking about.

I wonder if this works for sawmill band blades which can be anywhere from 1 1/4” to 1 1/2” wide

Great video. Thanks for sharing this. I didnt realize how the mixing pattern was different.

Subscribed. Thanks for the content. Keep up the good work. בס'ד

Thank you for making a well produced video Jerry. What RPM on the lathe do you think is best? I highly recommend to anyone to purchase Jere's plans for the radius turner and the bead roller modifications. I have done both and they turned out well. Thankyou for sharing your expertise.

Thanks Jere.

Excellent video, i am not in to this but got aware there is left and right shears and there is a science behind every work.
