Heavy Equipment Repair on HUGE Cat 992K Loader Cylinders! | Machining, Welding, Honing

[@roberta4989]

Hey guys. Had major back surgery last Wednesday. Still on the meds and a little fuzzy headed. When I got home on Monday I was so happy to see a CCE episode waiting to be enjoyed. That made me smile. Thanks, I forgot about the pain while I watched. Cheers! Hope all is well.

[@kenricrose]

Hope you feel better soon

[@gigantor56]

Hope you recuperate quickly. CEE is the perfect place to recuperate! Enjoy Kurtiss’ perfection, Karen’s flawless filming and editing and of course Homeless taking care of security and safety!

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Hey mate, we're sending you wishes for a speedy recovery from your surgery! Fun fact, Kurtis had back surgery to remove his tailbone many years ago after a work injury, some idiot setup a broken chair that Kurtis went to sit on and fell, he had back pain and issues for 2 years before the surgery. Take care and all the best!

[@Andy-Gibb]

Robert I also just had lower back surgery. L 4, L5, dual bi lateral foremnectomy with the removal of some of a previous spinal fusion. Take it easy and listen to your doctors and also enjoy Homeless and friends when they post fresh episodes. Regards from Townsville Australia

Ditto.

[@larryshillings6672]

Let me interject. A lot of people may not understand the full extent of the service that you provide. 1> savings on purchasing new parts. 2> savings on freight charges 3> savings on down time (customers lose a large amount of money in most cases for every hour that their machine sits, not working) It's a no Brainer. Turn around time is got to be the most expensive. 4> The customer can actually watch the process on KZbin. They can view the professionalism as well as the ingenious methods that Curtis professes. Not to mention all the expensive machinery that takes regular maintenance. Curtis is always updating his machines as well as techniques that he alone has systematically introduced. His knowledge is vast and his work ethic is unsurpassed.

[@larryshillings6672]

I'm not buttering you up. I'm actually a bit of an a***Ole. But I do admire your work. So don't get the big head. Everybody knows who and where you are and they all talk about you. So you probably already have the "big head". Ha! Have a good day.

I still can’t believe he doesn’t have an apprentice. So much knowledge that needs to be shared. I heard him say he can’t find reliable help, such a shame that so few want to work with there hands now.

[@fowletm1992]

The problem is in australia at least it actually costs the business a fair chunk of money to hire an apprentice, not just wages but it'd the fact that in reality if done right an apprentice will reduce Curtis's output in supervision time and education

[@donnienicholson6062]

I like the honesty of the camera operator being part of the videos. Too many otherwise great sites try to give an illusion they're working alone......while doing things nobody could do and keep the camera where it has to be. Great job on everyone's part.

[@ronwilken5219]

You're obviously new to the channel. The videographer is Karen, Kurtis's wife and partner. She's well known on KZbin for producing, she's also the editor of the videos, some of the finest offerings on KZbin. If anyone ever makes a suggestion on another site of what to do and not do, the recommendation is always: "Go look at CEE's site videos." Their pooch is Homeless, a blue Staffordshire terrier.

[@RobB_VK6ES]

Normally I find unboxing videos inane but homeless nailed it right there. I made bore welder many years ago to eliminate having to set up and break down of the line boring machine. It was essentially similar to your boring bar but had the feed thread cut into the bar itself and ran in bronze bushings and a fixed nut. Threads were left with a large flat at the crest, mitigating wear. A 3mm pitch is optimal for layer buildup. Driving the bar was done via a simple gear train with an idler acting as a clutch which also allowed manual rasing and lowering of the bar using a hand wheel. Wire feed was an old mig welder wire feeder and the spool was also attached to the bar top so everything went around with the bar. This arrangement eliminates the wire flicking caused by the wind up using a fixed spool and rotating contact tip. Cut off wheels make excellent draught excluders simply held up to the bore bottom. They also create a pool of shielding gas in the bore which is good for arc stability. Side benefit was not havng to constantly cut new wire liners.
