Sandblasting a rusty front loader

[@abuubaydullah1]

Many folk think when your self employed you make bags of money but when you've got to buy a new machine damn that hits the pocket deep down for a few years thank you for sharing your days graft

[@Mobileblaster]

Especially when we have the green blasting company on hear selling the dream and saying ridiculous prices can be made from blasting totally sales pitch bull shit real world you have to work hard to make a modest living and when something goes wrong then any profit built up is easily wiped out in 1 swoop 😂

[@joeroad6618]

Nice job Mick, the music choice after explaining how the pipes and cylinders have no damage was appropriate! Always hurts the wallet to buy new equipment, but when the old starts costing you more time and money than it's worth, it's time to bite the bullet.

[@Mobileblaster]

😂 It was like I was saving that track for that moment 😂 perfect racket to make a statement 😂 I feel dizzy with the email from doosan geeeees they have gone up sine the last 1 I bought I may need to keep this a little longer hahaha

Why can't everyone mind their own business.. You know what your doing and from what I can tell your very good at what you do.

[@Mobileblaster]

I think it's because they cannot do it then belive no one els can 😎

[@OuradventuresGU]

Great job as always Mick, ignore the armchair blaster’s am sure they wouldn’t know where to start and the work you do is proof enough you know what your doing! Keep the videos coming 👍🥂

[@Mobileblaster]

I didn't even think I was passionate about my work but I've been waiting for a job like this so I can prove myself even though I don't have nothing to prove to no 1 only the customer 😂

[@lynstoneham]

So relaxing watching your vlogs

[@phillipsharpe6459]

You are bound to get criticism of pople who haven't a clue what they are talking about, you do a good job pal, enough said, 😁👍

[@Mobileblaster]

I know but when someone is so adamant and saying they have 20 years experience makes my word look like I may be the 1 talking shit so I just hope he's clicked back on to see how I do things. I'm not saying it's the right way but it's working for me 👌 yes ideally it should be stripped to a inch of its life and then blasted and painted but the man hours would right this rig off 😂

[@QPRTokyo]

Quality work as per usual. First class. 😀

I doubt too many know just what graft blasting is, Mick - never mind "damage" / "not damage" - if you've any skill about you (you do) you're only blasting what needs. I'd not blasted anything for a couple weeks (TBTG :-) ) - had to blast a couple of van door hinges that got missed on a shelf instead of getting done with the rest, so they needed "catch-up" cleaning & painting.. On those theres rubber seal things - didn't hit them, they stayed mint, the rest got cleaned. Still was a pita setting up the blaster & doing even those small bits - blasting is Effort. :-)

[@peterchapman753]

Don't let them get under your skin there will always be people who think they know better. Mick I'm sure some people will not believe the hoses were not done by you why not get an old piece that's in quite good nick or scrouge a small bit then what can they say? . Keep em coming I love the videos and I have never worked in any manual job so don't let the bastards get to you Peter

[@Mobileblaster]

😎👌👍 just a little passion flowing out 😂

[@roydawson4882]

Mick them rams will get more damage out in the field working than you do,nice job as allways stay safe.

[@Mobileblaster]

😬 I wasn't going to reply like this as I have nothing to prove but when another blaster is saying I'm doing it wrong well I think they need to stop blasting as he said 20 years experience I'm thinking it's tuck him 19 and 3/4 years to learn how to set the rig up 😂👌👍

[@boatsandblastservices2165]

Hi Mick, ok alternator belts. I'm not sure what size your 7/71 runs but a genuine Doosan belt is Bando. I run a 7/51 and it's a 17x1120. Which is a Bando RPF5450 I that helps 🤔. Have you changed the coolant recently 🤔.

[@Mobileblaster]

I may just have solved the problem I've found another unit 😂 just waiting on specs of it price etc

[@boatsandblastservices2165]

@@Mobileblaster That probably would solve your problem 🤣🤣

[@johnholness1470]

if you should,nt blast in the rain what happens when you dustless blast,do you use dry water

[@Mobileblaster]

No I eva blast stone or brick normally something that don't rust instantly when it gets wet I can add a chemical to prevent this but that adds cost that folk don't seam to want to pay

[@ukstuartpatterson]

@10:50 ask "who a thar & wot du thar now". Them there cylinder rams are made of hardened chrome surface - it goes about 5mm deep - maybe more into the steel. If you want to work on them - you have to turn it in the lathe with a special tool to cut that stuff off & then you can weld it or change its shape. It is INCREDIBLY HARDENED and no shot blasting is going to kill that 5mm crust! Tell to do one Mick - they don't know sh*te. :)

[@Mobileblaster]

Haha A dunt ev t prove owt t nobdy lol

[@jamesmcauslan1347]

Nicely done Mick 👍 What media do you use on jobs like this?

[@Mobileblaster]

Thanks 😎👍I use crushed glass 👌

[@GMPowderCoating]

how many hours did it take to blast that? I'm sure a lot

[@Mobileblaster]

9 hour 👌

[@mickdelahunty5026]

Hi mick great video as always I'm just wondering how that helmet is for you I need an upgrade my helmet is needing replacing and I'm thinkin of gettin one of those like you have just wondering what your thoughts are on them is visibilitygood in front of your feet and does it sit snug on your head thanks mick keep up the good work regards the other mick

[@Mobileblaster]

I don't get paid to say this or any sort of discount off the products I have used 2 different types I the past and without pulling a company down they wasn't in the same league as the RPB nova 3 nearly perfect n every way only 1 improvement is super glue the ear things in as they clip off real easy and get lost other than that every aspect is on point I cannot say a bad word against it 👌

i have a room i use glass in. and a cabinet with AO and i can only blast chrome for powder coat prep with AO the glass doesnt do shit

[@Mobileblaster]

Spot on well it would if you spent enough time and effort on chrome but a quick flash won't damage the hardened serface 👌👍

[@RogueRestorationsLTD]

Might be a stupid question would it take skin of your hand .

[@Mobileblaster]

Yeah with ease that's why these videos aren't a how too because the way I do things isn't suited for the next guy gloves is an option but I know the risks and what my rig is capable of 👌

[@ringstinga]

The ones that are trying to belittle you probably have a 50 litre compressor and a lidl shot pot gun and use kiln dried sand while telling everybody they are professional blasters. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Keep up the great work Mick, How’s your lad doing nowadays.

[@Mobileblaster]

I personally think it's folk that use massive amounts of air combined with a boss telling them what to do and how to do it. Too scared to try and see what would happen 😏 I've been their done that and made every possible mistake thing with me I can adapt to overcome issues and give my reasons as to why I do things how I do best is yet to come as we're all still learning 😎 My youngest is still a full time job but some good news he's just about learnt how to singe thanks he nearly had it weeks back but decided it wasn't for him haha but now it's every time he gets what he wants oh and he's taking more steps still a little unsteady on old pins but won't be long hopefully ❤

[@staticxmako]

if you use steel shot. or aluminum oxide you can damage those. glass will not cut into chrome plating at all really..... maybe with 400cfm it will close. but glass is not near as strong as steel shot or AO

[@Mobileblaster]

Spot on mate someone else in the know 👍

[@stevefrost3509]

Don’t let the armchair wankers get to you , you have probably forgot more about job than they will ever know plus if the customer is happy don’t worry,regards from a fellow Yorkshireman and proud 👍👍

[@trevorpalmer1891]

While your opposition is commenting do they understand that you're working and there are not, don't worry about the Jackass comments, thanks for the videos!

[@Mobileblaster]

:) them that can do :D

[@neilwharton720]

These plant owners should know better!!! The piston rams are chrome plated or possibly polished they should be protected very well when you are blasting it will ruin the seals in no time and the pistons are toast if they are rough, not your fault they are cowboys trying to make a fast buck out of old tired machines tarted up with a lick of paint.💪💪💪

[@Mobileblaster]

To be fair it's down to me to protect that stuff just that I've adapted to be able to do such work with minimal time in prep that's what other blasters cannot get the head round. That's why these videos won't really help as a how too because alot is happening behind the facade 👌

[@alanhumberstone9989]

you find in life People that can’t do it tell people who can do it how to do it

I’m sick of you coming on ere Mick questioning us subscribers, playing Fword music, damaging rams, blasting glass - your making loads of money on ere you should be grateful - I hope your replacing them JCB stickers or I’m unsubscribing

Rip the lot off 😂 not 1 F word was used 😉 you will just have to start it all over again 😎👌👍 perfect

😂 I missed the bit about making loads of money 🤑 if only it was enough to replace my income so I didn't have to do the blasting oh wait that's counter productive 😂
