Foundation Drill rig Problems (PT 1)

[@dennissarver1963]

I love how they call you when they get stumped ! Then you show up and suddenly they are experts ! Always one in the company ! LOL

[@graemewhite5029]

Yup, just as I started watching I was thinking "Too many Chiefs..."😂

[@MiloTorres-yx5jw]

Issac knows the gist of the issues, they just want his problem solving techniques ,for the quick fix , always spot on... ☝️💪👍🤔🖖

[@uglysteve1]

I think the other guys were victims of analysis paralysis. Isaac knows.😊Steve

[@NR-cr762]

Hopefully Isaac is getting paid while they sit around and deal with their analysis paralysis

[@joshuabaker5712]

He seems to do a lot of work for them so I'm sure they have a good rapport with each other.

Love the longer format video's Isaac. This is a huge job, been there before and they are not fun

[@ICWeld]

Glad you like them!

As a Canadian that lives on the praries I always find it funny listening to people from the southern states comment on how cold it is. Great work as always Isaac!

[@ihdieselman]

Being from Alaska, I like to reply to someone who thinks they live in a northern state and remind them that they're pretty far south.

[@deltan9ne306]

@@ihdieselman Except I live in a province?

[@SPUDHOME]

Just live in the south through the summer, instead of running back north, just stay and see what the southern summer is like, and work outside in the heat, and humidity. Then you’ll understand the difference between 120deg heat and -20deg cold. How hot is your praries in the summer? How high is the humidity? Walk in another man’s shoes b4 complaining about his stride.

[@deltan9ne306]

@SPUDHOME I don't experience 120 degree heat, but we experience 100 degree. Gets so humid you can see the moisture in the concrete floors of our weld shop. I wasn't hating or judging at all, just seeing it from a different angle. I respect the hell out of Isaac.

[@DMSparky]

As a fellow prairie Canadian I can’t stand reading these type of comments. Mate it’s cold for them, just like working in +45C would be miserable for us. Most of us don’t even like working when it’s above the mid 30s. It’s all relative, if you’re not used to it, then it’s going to be uncomfortable. Especially if they don’t have all the right clothes or knowledge about layering. What prairie province are you from since the prairies are defined as a semi arid grasslands.

[@thepubliceye]

I like seeing IC and ic working together.

[@TalRohan]

nice "I" btw

[@lordbyrom100]

I watch your videos and now I know what is missing in my life ….since retirement I miss the challenges ,it keeps the little grey cells active …Great video look forward to part 2 👍👍👍👍

[@peter-pg5yc]

Your son is darn lucky to be trained by a master like yourself. what a leg up this is to his career.

[@cowcatcher9186]

I loved the part about an hour into to the video when you shut the torch down and cleaned the tip! Took me a long time to learn that patience. I remember when I used to just keep fighting it because I thought I was in a hurry. I now know it’s faster and a better cut if I just stop and take a minute or two to clean it up. Thank you!

[@patricklorio7657]

I really like the longer videos! I am a retired master plumber of 42 years, and I never really liked casual help like you got, but I understand and appreciate your diplomacy. Great video!

[@SPUDHOME]

Young ic, pay close attention to your pops... you've grown up with him so you may not realize how profound his skillset is. From his poise on the job, communication with all involved parties and finally the repair. Best of the best all the way around.

[@stephenmeeks684]

Isaac, it is so good to have you back. I missed you.

[@bigunone]

Pozole for lunch sounds good! Thank the guys and the company for allowing you to video this

[@yosmith1]

Man, this reminds me of many decades ago. Always interesting to see how others approach these kinds of things. Like the longer format of the video as well.

[@Hey_Its_That_Guy]

You sure get to work on some crazy stuff, Isaac! Thanks for sharing, can't wait for part 2!

[@rickc4317]

What an interesting job. Thanks, Isaaq. Looking forward to pt. 2

[@petermccuskey1832]

Fantastic dissection of somebody else's work. I am 68 years old and a machinist and weld er your work is surgical and to the point of amazing figuring out seams and cutting on them.

[@TheVideoSteve]

I really enjoy watching your videos and how you fix all the various problems you encounter..

[@peteacher52]

Like letsdig18, "I get called in to fix other people's stuff-ups!" although to be honest, it was quite a while back he said it, but it tickled my fancy and is one of those drolleries one remembers! Well done Isaac & Son; it's always a pleasure sitting in the front row seats you reserved for us.

[@dBateman-oe7oc]

looks like a difficult situation with some some of the players having their own ideas you are diplomatic, patient and the go to guy that sees through the symptoms and then identifies the problem keep on!!!

Wow, just like a Triumph Spitfire front suspension trunnion, only a bit bigger HAHA. I still get impressed at seeing how just a few small bolts hold that entire tower assembly in place.

[@Ian_S]

I commented on this video a few nights ago and made an assumption about certain people in the video. I was wrong and should not have made the comment. You have good people around you. Good workers that deserve respect. Keep it up, man.

Wow! That's a huge break. Great job, Isaac.

[@joshuabaker5712]

Man once again you cut better with a torch then anyone.

[@horstszibulski19]

Best idea to remove the caps and tilt the boom out of the pivot point. That shaft was lost already, no way you could get that out by straight pulling. Thx a lot for the XL video, looking forward to part two! 👍👍👍

[@diverrite]

Wow great job. I use to rig work in a tank farms (Bham AL) it was fun. Now I work on containers and chassis at the Mercedes auto plant, going to put on a landing leg on chassis tomorrow. Keep em coming.

[@mfc4591]

Things are never as they seem ! thanks for another great video

[@rtundlt1]

Another fabulous video Isaac. It's good to see your son out with you learning the trade from the master. Also, you're quite the gentleman and a true craftsman to give praise to a welder that is in competition with you for doing a good job. As you said, it was done a little different than you would have but you gave credit just the same.

[@Wardclerk1937]

Happy to have new material from you. I rely on closed captions - not enough hearing protection years ago. Sad that they aren't working on this one.

[@ICWeld]

KZbin changed how they upload CC. Its done automatically now I think. Its not been the same since. I'll see if I can go back and make additional changes.

[@kingtut5923]

Wow that's a real tough piece of work. They got the right man on it.

[@wilsonlaidlaw]

An artist with the cutting torch.

[@LightningFabrication]

Watching the operator laying the boom down, as it was jerking around you could see the end of the shaft move. Then again when the two guys were pulling on the pipe wrench. The first time the shaft rotated it dropped. Both instances proved the shaft was broken. Interesting project and I'm looking forward to Part 2. Thanks for sharing the repair with us.

[@joopterwijn]

What a job… you sure have build a great structural insight over the years and dare to bet your one of the top notch torch operator … man your patience and perseverance, accuracy is non to match!

[@nuggetwv5302]

[@mjm7187]

Great progress on this repair Isaac, lookingfwd to Part2. Maybe the out of town jobs knew better than having a video biography of having one of their employees make a fool of himself and the company he represents. Our bonus for a good laugh though. Your son is getting a real life education. Outstanding work!

[@blacksheep25251]

Gonna go ahead and give a shout out to the engineers and fabricators that built this. Seeing how slapped together John Deere products are, this repair was such a challenge for all that I can't help but respect the build. Tough for a repair, but dang...

[@gregforster5913]

Greg from northern Michigan Another great video. They were hoping for a easy fix (possibly some JB Weld) , but you aIready new better. When the end customer wants to be involved, you must always give them some ground, as they are probably facing additional pressures for not maintaining their eqiipment.

[@michaelweatherhead9470]

Thanks for the video Issac great job as always ❤️👍. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed ❤️.

[@marksnyder2232]

Nice slide hammer. I recall one video where factory mechanics were using a similar rig for pin installation on an excavator boom. Theirs was made from an old hydraulic piston rod, with what looked like a salvaged piston (presumabley from a larger cylinder) sliding on it for the weight. Excellent use of salvaged parts, and it stuck with me because I expected a factory crew to have more formal tools. Also, wow that sprocket has some serious wear on it. Those teeth are at the end of their life, I'd say.

[@JamesSmith-rm6to]

Your the man Issac and your son is a lucky young man to have a mentor like you can’t wait for part 2

Nice work! Always learn something from you. Thanks for sharing your videos!

[@MBwelding]

Boy that looks pretty clean for the scarfing nightmare it started out as. Another awesome job thus far Mr Carrion. That 900fc is my go to torch also for hunting down separation lines. Really I like it for most work. I work a lot at a sawmill/cogen plant, and they didn’t really have a welder before I got there so they would just gob more rod onto the problem. Makes hunting that line kinda tough when it’s been repaired like that for years. If I can I go beyond the weld to where I know I’m in solid parent metal, and make a nice clean cut for a fresh start. Love watching your videos gives me a different perspective on trouble shooting, and how to make faster repairs. I appreciate them a lot.

[@Motovader72]

There MAY be some as good with a torch, but there are none better. Prove me wrong. :)

[@ihdieselman]

I wish I could. The only thing is I've never seen anyone do a better job with a torch than Isaac. I was truly shocked that some of those pieces that he cut didn't just fall right off. Not very often you see that with Isaac's work usually it's only situations like this where it's very confined space and thick material.

[@megape95]

If you put a rope on the slide hammer you can put twice the energy in it. I made mine out of round stock 1.5m 30mm high strenght chrome rod from a cilinder and put a 10 kg weight on it. I Made it with m30 threat so it would screw inside the cat pins. The thing was stronger then 20 tons hollow press. It would break of a 24mm nut from the pin, fully welded. I drove many stuck pins out that way. The next step was the hammer on the 5 ton excavator, and heating it all the way

[@marctrossbach6560]

Thats Goin to be fun to weld back in....doesn't look like there's a lot of room in there
