I'm lost for words...that was a cool video man. I'm still surprised that your channel doesn't have a million subs. some pretty sick artwork as well. some of those homemade tools and using the boom to get in that small space just makes me laugh. had a similar experience in indonesia and a lot of bamboo. peace

Awesome, I rekon the tap was just for cleaning up existing threads, don't fancy their chances cutting threads from scratch with it. Really cool video mate cheers.
@Finntheweekendwarrior5 жыл бұрын
This is why I did a big search of the area to find what it was used on, It left me with more questions than answers. If just to clean paint or whatever from threads why not just score threads on a bolt and call it a day

@@Finntheweekendwarrior Maybe they didn't have a bolt long enough to reach where they needed to clean, so they cut the head off the bold and welded in a chunk of rebar to extend the length?

Surely that yellow thing at 06:43 is what the pipefitters use when they are lining up flanges. They stick it through the bolt holes of both flanges and use brute force to line up the flanges.
@joelpichette2 жыл бұрын
yes it would be a "pitch bar" but it's the first time i see one in which you put a inch-and-a-half pipe to apply brute force on with 2-4 guys... we usually use chain blocks or come-along to align the pipes, not brute force.
