Why not switch to metric/smaller units when you start having to use "1/20000 inch" as the measurement? 1.27 micrometers (as example) is far easier to understand

Two of my very favorite people, Will Stelter and Adam Booth. Excellent!
You just know when Adam Booth gets involved, its going to be a 4 hour video incoming on his channel!

Factor meals are actually DELICIOUS. I don't usually comment about sponsors, but I used them when I was single, low carb, finishing university, and working full-time as an intern, and it was a life saver. Customer support was incredibly easy when needed, which was rare. They never skipped a beat during the pandemic. It was a great match for that time of my life, so check it out if it sounds like it could be for you too.
Are you kidding?? A collab between Will and Adam??? I'm in!
As you and Adam were saying, it's almost a shame you won't be able to see that work of art. But thinking about it, those clean, smooth surfaces will be improving the performance. So in a way, you'll be able to "feel" the beauty of Adam's work every time you use the power hammer.
Can believe you survived the drive through St. Louis. That stretch of Highway 70 is one of the most dangerous in the country.
12:07 busted 😂. After all that Abom precision work... will drill it off centered hehehe
8:04 "....aaannnnnd.... Yathzee!" (Am I the only one who was expecting to hear this?) 😆
I love that we get a look at a lot more than tossing iron into a firey furnace and then beating it with a hammer until it submits to your will. This level of detail as we look at classic machinery is a rare gift.
As a trained machinist, this was a treat. As a new blacksmith at 52 years old, I'll be beating hot steel until I die at the forge. Now I just need a lot of bronze to make a Gladius.
Nice! Everyone has been waiting for the cherry to be popped on the Pacemaker. The bearing came out perfect and it will be great to see your hammer back in service.
you can file the brass flush and then use a woodworking router to re-cut the radius on the brass
I have never done any machining work but I have watched so much Abom79 that I could probably work at a machine shop for a week before someone figured out I was never formally trained.
Will’s got the flock of seagulls’ look going on
At 4:30 i can hear Curtis from CEE yelling "That's not a boring bar.....that's a boring bar" 😀
Hard to find a Machinist with more experience than Adam. What a great collaboration between two of my favorite creators!

15:20 "MEASUREMENTING" -- New technical term 😂
You guys did it, got it done. Nobody does everything perfect. Get it!!!!
Hopefully in a hundred years when someone goes to service that power hammer again and pulls it apart, they see the beautiful work done.
"Measurementing." Hah! What a hoot, Will.
Abom79 and Will? Abom79 is a living legend! Thanks Will. Where there is a will...
Before you file it, try making a wooden plug with a large head, then heat up the top of the casting and try hitting it into place using the plug to protect the bronze. Worth a try at least.

Nope, it has a death grip on it's home now. If you try to force it to move now, the bearing would be damaged. How much I'll leave to the millwrights in the crew, they are the best educated to respond. Best wishes from the far North.
@Hellsong89
Жыл бұрын
Depends. Old bearing was drenched in oil and took both heating and cooling plus massive amount of force to move due large surface area or bearing walls. If you go try to move it now, heat and cooling would be needed and even then bronze might change its shape due relatively small end surface area messing up everything and requiring to be reamed back in size. Depending on how much the difference is, its best to take millimeter or two off from casting rather than try to mess with the bearing. If its 5mm... well i would consider trying to redo it, but Will said its 0.762 mm under, so less than millimeter being taken out would not negatively effect the hammer, specially if the casting is bit uneven. In wills case its pretty straight, but smoothening that is not much of a issue and this should not effect rest of the hammers function at all.

I love Adam's new shop content. Haven't missed a single episode
This is Awesome!! Some Abom!! Would love to see Abom come to your shop and make a tool or something for his shop.
That bronze looks awesome against the black paint. Everything should have more bronze on it
Sweet collaboration!
I love the rifle on the tripod in the background during the Factor ad! Welcome to Montana!!
Love the video with Adam, @abom79. I ve follow Adam since years. Great to see he was able to help. Superb machinist and perfectionist. Very high level of care and perfect execution.
I LOVE seeing voolabs from channels I've been watching for years. Abom should do you right!
One of these days, I'll have to do a show of my uncle's salt shaker. 3 pieces, temperature fitted bottom. beautiful piece. one of the most sentimental pieces i own. I was there when he fitted the base into the shaker, using the heat/shrink thing.
That was totally rad AF! Very cool to see KZreadrs working together. Abom79 is amazing! God bless you and I can't wait for more "content" from your channel. 😀
The scale of that lathe!!! Insane 🤯
Are you going to be doing any collaboration videos with your friend in Sheridan? Sheridan is another beautiful town in the Midwest.
Awesome to see ABOM! 🥳
Ooooooooo damn Abom and Will yesssssssssss abom doing what he does you can't beat his craftsmanship
Interference fits that are put together with liquid nitrogen and heat always stress me out because I know the parts can get stuck before they're fully assembled. 😬 Super glad it all went smoothly!!!
"It's not boring, it's actually quite interesting!" Yeah yeah, this is a pun every machinist with a lathe NEVEREVER had heard in his life before... 😂😁😇🤟
Lol at the varmint gun on a tripod as you take a bite for the promo
Yup. I think just about any man wood jump at the opportunity to keep a Boudry power hammer in service. I love how craftsmen tend to view themselves as custodians of old tools and want to keep them around for future generations. “I’m just keeping this in good working order for the next guy.” Really cool that You can go to other KZreadrs for the stuff you can’t handle in house. Hopefully Adam will have need of a blacksmith to preserve some other tools.
Looking forward to the "Extended cut" on Abom's channel. :)
What if you put a thin steel plate a few thousand thicker than the bronze sticking out. it would be almost like a where or strike plate. don't know if that would affect the operation or anything like that though.
Tripod setup, very nice! 01:22
That lathe is beautiful , what an amazing machine. 👍
Did you try Keith Rucker? He is in Tifton Georgia and has an extensive shop. Incredibly nice guy as is Adam. Great job you are doing.
I love turning brass / bronze!
That is pretty cool. Glad to see you got to do a vid with Adam. Even happier that the fit was dang near perfect considering you couldn't take the bore measurements with you. Can you scooch it over just a smidge by pressing it back the other way?

Ohh Paul - once the two interference fit 3d surfaces are shrunk fitted with the vast temperature differential they can seldom be chilled/heated to a different location, or even removed one from the other depending on the fitment number ranges chosen. So in short no, and not as easy to re-position once the temps start to interface mechanically. MikeC
You and Adam get along so well it’s nice to see personalities that mesh like that.
Machining has to be the best ASMR material... I can watch lathes for hours. Adam's videos are always awesome.

Ooh, Abom, spray welding? Dang, still cool to see how well that massive lathe can handle such a big part.

That thing spins pieces that way hundreds of pounds, effortlessly... Crazy. Also, with that kid and of energy, if anything goes wrong, it reaaaaally goes wrong. But man is it amazing to watch it operate
Will, that was an epic trip. Adam is indeed a top tier machinist. Good two see to masters of their craft having a good day.
Cannot wait to see this thing slam hot steel
Awesome awesome awesome video! I have been waiting for you to do a collaboration with Adam! Now talk Alex into spending some time with Adam and then maybe my head won't hurt every time he machines something.
"Measurementing?" Looks like Florida Man got to Will, too.
Holy crap, the suspense when installing that bearing was intense for me. I was all, "shit! I would hate to see it get stuck, and they can't get it all the way before it warms up."
Some serious Ace Ventura vibes from that haircut Will 👍
Wow! The size of that lathe is just mind-boggling! Very interesting to watch.
Measurementing. Gonna steal that.
Abom? Next week Colin Furze will be riding the fly wheel like a ferris wheel.
I'd love to see the old bearings turned into knife guards or shield parts
1:22 Nice telescope there!
That’s a damn good collaboration
Love the new Caesar laurels hair stylin’. Great video!
Always tighten big bolts to Abom torque! Only way to do it 😉
Oh man this makes me so happy
so glad to see that american pacemaker put to work in Adam's shop. Sorry You had to drive all the way down to Mount Hannon to make it happen. LOL
Damn what an honor! I’ve been wanting to see that thing in action!
I've watched Adam for many years, he knows his stuff. It's good to see him pass on his knowledge to you and others. By the way, that bearing looks so much bigger in your vid.
Awesome video! Abom's great, and Will's the best, so this was a great collab. In terms of matching that radius, could you put some abrasive on the radius of the shaft, and use that to create a match on the bearing?
you should do a beginner blacksmithing series
Nice to see Abom on.
So glad you guys got together on this. Can't wait to go see Adams video now.
Mr Booth is one awesome human being.
Will, is, of course, very good at breaking hammers. When you are done "measurementing" you might try to lap that radius rather than file the curve after you file the front of the "stick out" flat.

MikeK - as another master machinist your suggestion of lapping the fitment to some precise and functional shape as if the hammer required such precision for functionality. Side play restrained by bronze vs cast iron vs forged steel are all mentioned in a variety of tables and used to be for various casting and forging dies. Not much of a problem yet and something which can be viewed under the layers of grease in a few months time. MikeC
LOL Measurementing. Great word Will.
This is the collaboration the internet needed
What a great sight to see. An (almost) old dog (Adam) and a young buck ( Will ) collaborating together. You're in the presence of machinist legend kid! I wish one of my grandsons had the direction, skill and appreciation for fine old machines like you two. BTW, when Adam was parting off the bearing I was thinking the worst at the end of that broom handle. I wonder if a plywood sheet under it, like we do for chuck removal would have saved it from the unfortunate ding? Wakodahatchee Chris
Mad respect for people with the kind of skill that becomes art.
It’s great seeing you two working together
OK, so there was a AR at about 1.25. On a tripod... hahaha classic
Thank you for the free eye surgery at the end!
I got here from there , Great to see a collab with Adam, he's a great machinist ,
Heck of a drive!
You had the best guy to make this part, for Adam this is just another day, for you an experience with a master machinist as to how stuff is done. Have yourself a great day
