I hope the next video is making a hydraulic pump!!

[@eulemitbeule5426]

That hydraulic pump is just ripped out of a wood splitter.

[@Hellsong89]

More like metal lathe so we can make the god damn parts showed on the video... Something that is cheap to build DIY, common cheap parts and has precision good enough for such projects..

[@liamstrong5223]

Hellsong89 as some one who uses Hardinge and wacheon lathes daily, I will be very very impressed if he manages to create a proper lathe out of easy to make parts that can hold and repeatedly even 3 thousands of an inch accuracy

Работал на заводе Транспрогресс в Орехово-Зуево, тоже собирал такие цилиндры,только из готовых деталей. Этот человек профи, если может сам собрать такой цилиндр самостоятельно. Токарь, шлифовщик,сварщик,слесарь, небуду говорить за конструктора и осталных...

[@elmy5880]

この人はほんとに凄いなぁ

[@websitedesigner7158]

This was a great project. Great workmanship here. However,u missed to show us how you have connected the cylinder to the air pump,my biggest concern is how you connected the lever that when u shift it one direction, it moves the cylinder arm forward and vice versa. What gadget is that by the way( at minute 6:12 and 6:19)? Do let me know. Thanks alot for sharing this project

[@dynajenenterprises]

Great videos. Any chance in the future, maybe a quick time stamp for each component for reference? For instance after you cut the threads, a quick (5:17) to show how long it actually took? Just a thought!

in the future after the apocalypse I want to be on your team

[@pabloata4708]

Apocalypse = No power grid = No welder/Lathe/etc

[@svartahridxhgc]

Pablo Ata That would not be a problem for these guys, there are many ways to create energy.

[@antimattercarp2720]

Lathes are one of the oldest shop tools ever dude, they predate electricity.

[@fustigamatti]

sure a pedal lathe would do all this tho uh?

[@antimattercarp2720]

One hooked up to a water wheel with leather straps would do perfectly fine, there are several surviving examples around the world. Mills are mills.

[@recyclebills]

What did you use to clean up the inside of the bore after welding?

[@harrisonngari6650]

Amazing

[@Cetoke]

[@MakeitExtreme]

Thank you! :)

[@Baha2mn]

Thank you sir.. :)

[@agstechnicalsupport]

Pretty labor intensive process to make these hydraulic cylinders !

[@maddox0110]

Welding on the outside will contract/deform the tube..... The main reason this ram still works is the tolerance on the pistonseal. But, who cares, it works....

[@gorillaau]

So weld first and then machine the interior of the tube?

[@gorillaau]

@NYTom60 Thanks, mate. Take care of yourself. Pressure can go wrong very quickly, though not a bad as steam/ superheated water.

[@gibsonzumbika3133]

Weld first then hone the inside and cut threads after

[@shodanxx]

What kind of tubing is the bore housing ? Can use use DOM tubing as is or do you need to machine or ground the ID ? Also the piston shaft, does it need hard chrome plating ? Does it need to be ground to final ID ?

[@m.emrahozkaya9903]

is it possible to measure how strong it is? very nice as always, thanks for sharing!

[@NCPFunK]

Well that is easy, but it will be more like testing its breaking point. if you want too calculate how much it can take you can use this to get a avarage. Tensile strength, mn, ps (MPa) : 45 000 if its grade A

[@gabbermaikel]

its pretty easy to calculate how stong an hydraulic cilinder would be. You need to know what the maximum pressure is and the surface area of the pist. If you know those 2 then you can calculate the strength.

[@UtkuDemir]

Matthias Wandel is the best person to answer this question I guess.

[@WezleyB]

grade 9 math... psi x area of the clyinder..........

[@RavingMadProductions]

The actual force exerted from a given cylinder/pump and the actual rated capacity are two very, very different things...............

[@lhl2500]

I'm more impressed with how much that pallet resisted being ripped apart.

[@GiacoWhatever]

Wow! Did you guys tested how much Newton can that beast push? Awesome...

[@minecrafter0505]

Oh, hey Giaco.

[@benargee]

Should just be the hydraulic pressure multiplied by the cross sectional area of the piston face.

[@killerdoxen]

@@benargee pretty much. A 4” cylinder, for example, will produce the same force at the same pressure regardless of the manufacturer.

[@bayuprabowo4899]

What are the material of the cylinder and rod? are they high carbon material or just mild steel? Thx🙏

[@aaronwood3540]

so now that you've built it, what are you going to do with it?

[@chillaxter13]

aaron wood My thoughts exactly! I was wondering the whole time... "Okay, so, a single hydraulic piston... What are they going to do with this?" A whole world of possibilities!

[@djAnakin]

I'm guessing hydraulic press.

[@JukeboxJake]

djAnakin hydrolic presses are much bigger and much mkre powerful

[@JukeboxJake]

aaron wood, if you watched to the end you would see it can bend metal.

[@Alientraveler003]

woh that dude is cool , add it up dummies this man is the shop you are awsome sir

[@tonyrmathis]

How are you preparing the inside of the pipe? Is the internal surface already suitable for the piston and seals?

[@Eduardo_GCE]

hey buddy, brake this sharp corners.... they are not good with high pressure and seals

[@SpaceraverDK]

Gatewayuser200 I have pictures of a hydraulic hose failure. Went through a hand. Do not trifle hydraulic oil. You will lose a finger.

[@denn606]

primativehunter18 hyd pressure is alot higher than pneumatic, hence more force released at failure

[@gatekeeper84]

Steel can be cut with a high pressure water jet. People can be cut with high pressure hydraulic fluid.

[@skyhawk551]

what kind of welding would it take for it to be safe? how would you test that?

[@davidduffy9806]

You are an extraordinarily gifted & intuitive designer/engineer. Do you draw plans prior to build or do you hold the design in your mind and complete the build organically?

[@langhilau]

Does your brain ever shut off or go into neutral? Or are you thinking of something new every minute of the day. Keep the videos coming!!

[@peraz968]

very nice projects! I have been watched mosti of your projects. and here a litle tip. when you turnin threads on a lathe you can finalize the thread with electric powered steel brush. makes it nice and cool.

Dunno if he followed advice or not on this, but, focus testing shows that adding them increases visibility. For example in advertising, that's why you see some commercials with bold 'components'. Now, considering KZbin etiquette 101 is to read the video description, and the fact that barely anyone does it, IF he did it to increase visibility, i find it perfectly justified.

[@silver.araujo]

I live in Brazil but I love your projects, very well done!

[@scottburrous2375]

Looks more like a concept build or an assembly rather than a build from scratch. Unless 90% of the build was done off camera, starting with a hydraulic cylinder or an extruded pipe instead of a piece of 'normal' pipe that had to have the weld seam removed then honed to be round. And then the piston had to be fabricated and the threaded collar with the o rings. . . Ever so much cheaper to purchase a manufactured cylinder than purchase the bits and pieces to make one! I KNOW because I looked into making as opposed to buying for a proof of concept project I developed and that was before the machining. Granted, you have bragging rights to say, "I made it" and it only cost me - if you include your time, 5 times the purchase amount

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

I am going to have to make one of these just to say I did and I'm sure I'll find a use for it sooner or later. Real quick question was the plastic that you shoved in the end of the cylinder to protect the Rubber seal from getting all snergeled up by the sharp edge of the cylinder

Good job! Im working with this stuff(making pneum. and hydraulic seals and cylinders) for almost 20 years, I don't want to criticize, but you made several mistakes, 1. You didnt make "nest" for the steady rest on OD of the tube. 2. You should face turn tube, make lenght, weld pipe conection, then make inner thread on tube, becouse welding make tube a little bit spherical.(that why you couldnt maybe tighten the pilot boss) Greetings from Bosnia and keep up with good stuff

Usually that happens automatically, if the oil connectors are at the highest point. It's the same with more complex hydraulic systems with valves and pipes, if you start to run them on oil it pushes the air out of the system.
