Hey guys. Just thought I'd drop another video showing some torch work of replacing a welded in pin boss. Sometimes an arc gouger isn't available so you have to do it the old fashioned way, by torching out the bad or worn parts. This video is nothing special but maybe itll give you a few ideas that you can implement in your situation. either way, hope this helps

    After reading a bunch of comments saying the same thing it's clear that some people don't listen very well, he clearly says he's doing it this way to show it can be done with a torch ,it takes a brave man to put his work out there for all the keyboard experts to comment on.

    A lesson in "welcome to the real world." Not clean, not pretty, not a studio setup, gravel under your knees..... Thank you, Sir, for sharing!

    "Good thing I own a grinder" - That weld looked better than anything I can do horizontal. Beautiful work!
  • @gteea
    You're one of the first blokes I've seen without an attitude. You're prepared to pass on different methods and teach via doing stuff. I personally have made tools that look likes yours, follow techniques you describe and go about burning steel like you. Thanks for being a great teacher brother.

    WOWZERS! Your surgical precision with a cutting torch never cease to amaze me!

    Not in a million years could I free hand cut a hole that deep that anything would fit in properly...

    I have been mobile repair welding since 95. You do good work. I've seen a few good ones and a lot of bad ones. I like your patience and grip on how things are built. You have great skill and was a pleasure to watch. I look forward to more of your stuff.
  • I hope when retire , you become an instructor so your talent and experience can be a blessing for others. Awesome man!
  • @hpda44
    I consider it a privilege to watch a master craftsman work.

    very nice work. seeing that saddle grease reminded me of a fun visit from a salesman. he was selling heavy duty handcleaner and insisted it could even clean that off. before we could stop him he took a handful of well used grease and rubbed his hands with it real good like he was using soap. after that he went to demonstrate his mighty fine handcleaner. well. we ended up giving him a couple plastic bags he could use as gloves to drive back and yell at his boss for false advertising :) i never forget how he gradually went from confident to panic when realizing it didnt work.

    I'm a retired machinist with 39 years in trade, and some welding experience. It's always a joy to watch a pro at work, I learned a couple of things watching your vid. Thank you.
  • @emtfireman813
    Mad respect for that overhead alone. This shows a definitive difference between professional and amateur. Well done, sir!!!!
  • @campgas5344
    I have been in the industry a long time, you my friend are the most talented person I ever seen with torch.
  • @SodGod
    Love it! Just a central Texas grass farmer here, but your videos give me the knowledge and confidence to make some major money saving repairs. Keep ‘em coming! Great job!
  • @WesMoran
    Thank you for your hard work. This is the kind of skill that keeps America going without the common man (citizen) even knowing. 520 dislikes, may be other professionals who would’ve done it different, but they probably fabricate from the comfort of a shop where whatever tool is needed is just a reach away. I’d be shocked to know if any of them have ever actually had to adapt in the field.
  • There are very few people on the planet than can truly appreciate what was done in this video. Great job!
  • @ggrong4356
    It’s simply “Surgical precision”, what a pleasure to watch. Thx Issac
  • @jrock3827
    31 people are super jealous that your skill tops their ego. How people can not appreciate your work and humble attitude is beyond me. Some just take up space on Earth...
  • He uses a length of metal pipe on the ground to rest his left hand on while he arc welds with the right, he goes around in a slow circle pivoting on his left hand pipe. :) I think the guy knows what he's doing :) I love seeing professionals doing what they do.
