The owner of that part sure knew the right place to get the job done right.

The horizontal mill did a good job machining all these bores, excellent work!

You never cease to amaze me! Us John Deere owners would be lost without you!

Your ability to resurrect the dead is amazing! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Big Job Nicely Done

You brought that thing back from the grave! Nice work as always Brian.

The magnitude of the damage You are able to revitalize is impressive Brian. Thank You for the time and efforts to share the process with us. Best Wishes to You and Your Family.

Always amazed at the large scale of your machines. Especially with my limited training & experience on 9" to 13" lathes & bridgeport type mills. Large machines can do large scale jobs, the right tool for the job, I get it! Thanks Brian for showing what you do.

Well done Brian. Thanks

Very nice !

Brian u need a Turn Table,you might have been able to do all the work in one set up u dont lock spindle in position and feed the (w) table I operated a Lucas DCP 20 with 72 inch travel on X and Y, It was an NC control not CNC YES, TO ALL YOUR TROLLS LAST TIME I COMMENTED IM NOT PICKING ON THIS MAN,would make it alot easier to machine parts like this also have operated a Develeig Jig Mill

Brian good work as always

nice work

Thank you for another great video. Cheers

That was quite the job. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like it was only a week or two from the scrap yard. But they brought it to you just in time to revive it for another run

Hope they pay you good for this job. This piece is dam near ready for the scrap tub.

Nice!

Good as new.

Nice job as always.

Nice job Brian.

very good job Brian..thanks for your time

Good video.

Nice one . Lol , I think you ment " same but different " at the end ! Have you tried Expander pins for the steering , good if the bores are only slightly worn , not completely flogged out ! 👍

9000 series is a big boy shows what weight and horsepower does after a time. What year model did that come out of?

Miracles.

Going to be a popular repair as the hours creep up on those machines. Line boring guys should have work backed up. Maybe you could 3D print some nylon bushings ;-)

Thank you Brian for the video. Would like to see you put that radiant floor heat to use next winter with the installation of a proper boiler (wood). Any additional barn/shop improvement videos on the horizon? Thanks again.

looks like a ton of work, but came out nice overall

Another nice job there Brian. Seems to be a bit of runout on that small boring bar.

It is deflection from being hung out so far.

That HBM is sure paying for itself, would be a lot more hours trying to do that with a line boring rig. Do you ever rebuild bores with hard facing weld?

@bcbloc02

3 ай бұрын

No. If you used hard face I don’t think you could machine it with much short of a grinder. Maybe cbn would cut it but it hates intermittent cuts and there usually is a lot of that in a welded bore. You ever bored hard face?

Kentucky windage and elevation strikes again.Another silk purse made out of a sows ear with the big long silky sow boring rig. Blessings

Who says you can’t polish a turd😀. That was a lot of different set ups and steps to save that piece

Question is there a sign outside your shop that reads "Block machining" There should be. Just saying

That is what I said a guy with a good burn table and some fixtures could probably build one in the time it took me to repair it. That being said it of course would have still needed the machine work so…… Regardless I work with the tools I have so it’s the route I took.

Was there anything not wrong with this?

Barely, mainly that it still had 1000lbs of steel to work with. LOL

and after you finish trippin over everything,. you can do some work...?

Nice one Brian!! Do you weld the bores up manually or do you have the machine to set up and weld for you?

Yup I definitely understand that, I’m in the process of building a shop so I can stop working on stuff out in the elements getting tired of it. The company that I used to work for had 20 cat 980 wheel loaders and during winter maintenance I would go through pins, bushings and possible line bore, split the tractor apart, the guy they had do the line boring had the automated welder it was cool to watch, so fast after set up. Any updates on old yeller?

@@cumminsnchevy I ordered some 17" rims for the back since the tires are junk and I have lots of access to 17" wheels taken off new trucks hardly anybody runs 16 stuff anymore. Sadly even though I ordered them in February they aren't supposed to ship till the end of this month. I struggle to find time to work on it anyway. I want to take it to Turoghbreds dyno event in May but not sure I will have it back together by then. It runs and drives now but has no turbos or intake system. It needs a couple of days of work.
