Pulley Restoration | Is That Poop??

The old rusty pulley from an old barn does not have many parts, so disassembly was straightforward. In this project I have had to make several bolts new on the lathe, welding, paint spreading, sandblasting, grinding and then some. Please also note that this video is not just to quickly show someone how something works, but also to relax and unwind from the daily grind!
------------------------------------------------------------
▶ What did I do ?! ◀
To disassemble the antique idler pulley it was enough to pull two bolts and disassemble the plain bearing to hold all the parts in my hand. After washing them off in water, I sandblasted all the parts in the sandblasting cabinet. After removing burrs and imperfections, the major components could be painted with rust preventative paint. The bolt, on the old pulley had to be replaced because the old one had too much play in the fit. The bracket, including the bolt that holds the idler pulley, also had to be rebuilt. After all parts were reassembled, the bolt could be filled with grease. As a small detail, the letters were colored to match the pulley.
------------------------------------------------------------
▶ Good to know ◀
I used the following tools: Water pump pliers, pin punch, hammer, dishwasher liquid, brush, screwdriver, wire brush, compressor, sandblasting cabinet, abrasive corundum, key file, metal rust preventive paint, paint brush, lathe, lathe chisel, center drill, drill, cordless screwdriver, saw, tap, center punch, caliper, countersink, polishing machine, polishing paste, multifunctional tool, scriber, parallel scriber, stop angle, angle grinder, welding machine, welding helmet, adhesive tape, lubricating grease

Not poop, but it may have been a pulley wheel with either a leather or rubber bedding to make the wheel less noisey.

[@Dave_en]

I think its leather or rubber gasket for smooth noise free operation. It's purpose may be to prevent wearing off the pulley and its replaceable component. The leather rotted and appeared to be poop.😂😂😂

[@TheGelasiaBlythe]

Turtle's digusted face while looking at the old grease was just classic! The pulley came out wonderfully, and now i am thinking of Hogan's Heroes (Hochstetter). 😊 Such a wonderful job on the old pulley. I hope it has many good years left.

[@ForgottenShineRestoration]

Thank you very much! 😁🐢

[@Fruity_lexia]

My mind went to Major Hochstetter too!

[@davesmith5656]

I like the way he bring the turtle's unique talents into the process. That's the way to treat a valued employee. I just hope he's paying into the social security plan and medicare and is providing for the turtle's old age.

[@TheGelasiaBlythe]

@@davesmith5656 yes, Turtle deserves care in her old age. I think she will never have to worry, though.

I always loved when turtle popped up here and there, but I wasn't much of a fan of his new face in the newer videos until he saw that old grease. You've won me over. Great restoration as always.

[@garymucher4082]

Nice save of that pulley system. And the colors look good too. One suggest, if you have the space, install a backup washer before installing the cotter pins. That way if, or when, the cotter pins spin, it won't scratch up the finish. Thumbs Up!

[@777MasterHero]

I have two theories as to what that stuff caked in the pulley was: 1. It's manure/dirt from lying on a barn floor for many years 2. It's the disintegrated remains of the rope that use to go around it

[@ForgottenShineRestoration]

I suspect the rope was pulled on the floor (full of poo) and then transported into the pulley...🐢

[@vathraq2727]

I see a similar effect in my work. The pulley starts making noise. They put a lubricant. In this case probably grease. The grease, because it's wet, gathers dirt and dust particles causing it to cake up and dry. Then you have scrape it off to clean the pulley.

[@christopherdunn7688]

I would rather you restore items, yes old stuff gets wore out and loose. We love your videos and don't expect every item you do to work even better than it did when it was first made.

[@peterbond7357]

Ich als Schweißer musste mir kurz die Augen zu halten 🙈🤭 Kein Phase und falsche Einstellungen bzw zu langsam geschoben beim Schweißen. Trotzallem machst du gute Arbeit. Mach weiter so 👍🏼🙋🏼‍♂️

[@kumar_ankit28]

That's not a poop IMO. It must be some rubber type thing over a pulley so that the rope is easily pulled without being friction with frame. Rope gets a grip and pull things easily. BDW Amazing work.

[@ForgottenShineRestoration]

This was not rubber. It was poop or mud with straw...🐢

Hi, I'm just curious as to why you hand paint the items as opposed to using spray paint? It is an environmental consideration? You know, because of the aerosol emissions from spray paint? Thanks for your answer in advance. 🙂

Good Job, auch wenn ich eher Fan davon mehr der Originalteile zu erhalten. Gerade wenn man Schweiß-, Dreh- und Schleifmöglichkeiten hat. Diese beiden Bolzen (oder Schrauben wie hier jemand meint), hätte man auch so nochmal gerade richten, eventuelle Risse schweißen und mittels Drehschleifung auf Hochglanz bringen können, anstatt die Teile komplett neu zu machen (auch wenn das Ergebnis natürlich gut ist). Für diverse Unebenheiten wäre spachteln eventuell nochmal gut gewesen. Hinter eventuell sprühen, wobei ich Pulverbeschichtung persönlich noch schöner finde. Ansonsten immer wieder schön sowas zu sehen. 👍🏿

Just wanted to say, protect your camera lens from arc flash as well, it will damage the photo receptors inside it. Same effect as if you were to point it directly at the sun. There are shields you can buy to protect the camera lens like green tinted glass or plexiglass.

Hallo, danke für das schöne "ruhige" Video und das du mir und Turtle das Schweißlichtschein ersparst. Warum keine Grundierfarbe verwendet und Gewindeschneiden, des Bolzens, auf der Drehbank. Erlaube mir einen Tipp abzugeben (bei dir nicht nötig da du eine sehr ruhige Hand hast) Sehr feine Linien bzw. Buchstaben kann man schnell und genau mit einem Lackstift zeichnen. Kopfhörer auf und ab wegen der sehr lauten Werbeunterbrechung, geht nicht! Freue mich schon auf das nächste Projekt, dann hoffentlich "größer". Gruß aus Mannheim, BRD, BW Martin
