When the Ritchie bros auction sticker holds up better than the company’s sticker, you know your in for a rough ride.
-
It's like someone described how to make a brush cutter over the phone in English to a Chinese company and the only part they understood was "it must cost less than $300"

Nice mod /repair. As my dad would have said when fixing shoddy equipment . “It’s now less worse”

Hey, Matt, when I was in the Navy we had all kinds of couplings on many pieces of equipment in the engineroom. We would pack the couplings with grease, which was a maintenance requirement on any equipment that had them, but we would cover the coupling with rubber sheets and wire them closed around the shafts. It prevented the grease from spinning off the coupling when rotating and because of the corrosive environment of the ocean, it also prevented rust formation by keeping the grease in place and covered. Doing that to your chain coupling would definitely help it last longer.

I was thinking after the Jeep vidya that I've come to appreciate you jumping around and not sticking with one topic or piece of equipment at a time. Keeps things fresh.

Don't worry It'll be 100 percent quality US made by the time you're finished🍻

“We have the perfect spacing” Thats your one project freebie in life.

Welding on a bench filled with random crap is how my dad tried to burn down our shed.
-
My open front brush cutter throws things out hard enough to ricochet back and chip the 3/4 inch polycarbonate forestry door. You are brave!
-
the reason i love yours and andrew's channel is if you see a flaw in a design you take the effort to improve on it
-
Today we played Diesel Creek with my four years old. We pretended to find a diesel engine in the woods, we took it apart and rebuilt it. I hope it’ll be a good memory for him, as it’ll be to me. Cheers Matt

Matt, once you're satisfied everything is lined up, you should really brace the back of the hydraulic motor. They vibrate a bit of their own volition, and sitting on top of that vibration table is just amplifying the problem. Eventually the mounting bracket will fatigue or the pump case will crack. An ounce of prevention......
-
@12:15 Now that you beefed up the coupling, something else will break.
-
That was really clever to adapt the two halves of the old coupling into a chain coupling. I'm going to file that one away. Nice work!
-
It's very satisfying watching you shred those multiflora rose bushes.
-
Nice design repair Matt, improving equipment while repairing is truly a "Lost Art".
-
Diesel creek and twin sticks in the same day. Cant get any better

Chinesium: the only item barred from the periodic table of elements.

You came up with a great way to fix that. The people on U-TUB never fail to be amazing at solving and fixing your equipment.
