Broken Big Crankshaft // Mechanic Accepts Challenge On Small Lathe Machine And Repair Crankshaft

[@kk6aw]

I just have to admire the tender loving care given to the broke parts

[@Andy-x3e4z]

As an Engineer I’m sorry but this shaft won’t last long despite it’s appeared.Due to the molecular structure of the metal and the stress this piece will be under it will snap in no time.Why do you think the shaft was originally one long piece of steel.

One of the first thing you learn in welding class is that you don't have to just protect your eyes from the lite (radiation), you must protect All of your exposed skin areas. An American dies from malignant melanoma every hour!. Exposing skin to that radiation dramatically increases your chances of being one of those people. And I love the steel toed sandals. Drop something that heavy on your toes and watch the fun!

Got to give it those guys they have the best "EYECROMETERS" ever no need for any measuring devices. Do you suppose the horrible finish on that pin is on purpose so it wedges into the hole and stays put? Don't forget the GOB welding, and the awesome threads, goodness what a pile of crap. look at how much run out that unit has. excellent welds on a bearing surface, smooth as sand paper, If that shaft lives a week it will be a machining miracle. Perfectly balanced I am sure. I wonder what it is for?

[@lordieshepherd]

So right! This now has the tensile strength of a hollow bar. It will fail again.

[@fredzephire4071]

It's probably a crank from a 1 cyl motor used to drive a water pump for irrigation.

[@martinjjnoagenda5536]

As an engineer, this makes me cringe all the way from the moment they dropped it from that truck. It will destroy all engine bearings, piston(s) and probably break again pretty soon also.

The shaft broke when it was solid now there are two spots at the end of the pin that are half as strong as before. They should of at least replaced the shaft from the crank.

[@jacksons1010]

The pin is not adding any torsional strength. The shaft is now effectively a tube, no stronger than the amount of material in the wall of that tube.

Oh dear another crock of shite makes it onto the web of all things unnatural. Turning is so eccentric this shaft could well induce motion sickness, the lathe 'Steady' wasn't, and was jumping up and down. When I turned eccentic shafts the balance weight would be comparable to the shaft eccentricity. Did anyone else notice how far the tool was off centre on the lathe ? I would be surprised if the shaft would even fit back into the housing, if it did the housing will disintegrate. Why these guys don't take up knitting instead of abusing metal is beyond me. I'm just a retired qualified engineer & consultant within the gear and gearbox industry, so what do I know ?

[@firstlast-ty4di]

@@nikxohs3925 Caring about requirements is part of engineering. If you check a mechanics of materials reference, you will find that 90% of the torsional strength of a shaft is in only the outermost 50% diameter. That is: if you have a 2" solid round shaft and put a 1" hole in its center axis, you will only lose 10% of its torsional strength. Shaft are often solid only because it costs less to manufacture them that way.
