How to make a Milwaukee Train Horn

[@Superduty_59]

Nice demonstration!

[@1978garfield]

Thank you! I could not figure out if they used the impact's motor to turn the compressor or just the voltage from the battery. Now that I know it is the voltage I could make one from any rechargeable tool. I have a dead cordless reciprocating saw and an air horn I never installed because it wouldn't fit under my hood. I bet the 12 volt motor will handle 18 Volts in short bursts. Thanks again!

[@Funnyedits12]

If you power the 12v compressor with 18v there will be too much voltage and the compressor will not work and it will be destroyed inside so you will have to buy a new compressor if it gets destroyed.

Wow Really nice vidéo and how it make the train horn i find thate its a good présentation for show to other people here Good Job :)

[@jonathancook7023]

Bravo mate.... well done.. it was a very intriguing video. . you had my attention from the very moment you started your video.

[@Superduty_59]

I just made one of these over the weekend. I used a M18 drill.

[@markdi2]

I built one of those over 3 years ago using an old Ryobi drill

[@dannybellaz23]

Thanks for your efforts put into making the video. I found it clear and just right length for a good overview. Thank you OP!

[@SuperTuna7]

Just curious why you swapped out the trigger? Could we not simply connect the positive/negative going to the motor, to the compressor that will be replacing it?

[@diy-ster]

I replaced the trigger because the original trigger did not turn on and off. This is a tool problem with an asynchronous motor, as far as I know.

[@armstronggutters2665]

Where can I buy that switch??

[@inthestateofcorruption1108]

Your video is very educational. I was very curious as to what a train horn was … I bid on one for $20 and won it 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m thinking it might be good for camping as a bear deterrent. But honestly I wanted one for the scammers who are continuously calls my phone 😂😂😂

[@alvaroruiz9169]

Hi, thanks for vídeo!! Where did u order the horns in red..thank you

[@bobbytan551]

Hi where do i get the compressor? Thank you!

[@chevis26]

I have a dewalt brushless drill to use it has 3 wires white black and blue and I can't figure out how it needs to be wired bc it's all incased inside the small board....I may just look for a regular drill

[@loyaltyprodetailmobilewith5883]

Do you sell them ? If you Do I would love to buy one

[@Just_some_random_guy801]

Can in also use a drill instead of an inpact

[@EGHaunts]

Depends the size of the drill

[@Superduty_59]

I did use a drill. It was an old Milwaukee 1/2 drill

[@justinsinger1764]

How would I wire in a remote as well at the trigger?

[@diy-ster]

I also want to build one with a remote control. Maybe I'll make a video. I'm planning to order this diy set. bosshorn.com/products/diy-milwaukee-train-horn-kit

What is the part number for the switch you used?

I've had some similar to these for a long time. www.amazon.com/Electric-Drill-Switch-7-2-Cordless/dp/B08B7YZYXQ

What is the SPECIFIC model of Milwaukee drill did you use?

Doesnt matter at all

[@bennorwood5181]

Wow. I thought the impact motor would power the compressor. Looks dumb

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

It would be pretty weird to have all that hammering just for a compressor. And yeah, this _IS_ dumb.

[@bennorwood5181]

@@HelloKittyFanMan I said the motor. I did not say motor and anvil/ impact mechanism.

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

@@bennorwood5181: You said "impact motor." If you just meant "motor" then just edit your post (or copy, delete, and repost) to simply say _that._

[@bennorwood5181]

@@HelloKittyFanMan because it is the motor from the impact so it is the impact motor

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

@@bennorwood5181: No it's not. There is no such tool as an "impact." Try again.

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

What a waste of a new impact driver!

[@battedtomcatnlnl153]

Broken motor is posible he

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

@battedtomcatnlnl153 , I wouldn't have said this if he had made it obvious that this is not a new one.
