    Pro Tip!!!!!! I do not normally comment, But your in my wheel house with the Welding. Never clean Aluminum with a Steel Wire Wheel or any wire wheel or brush for that matter. What happened is you impregnated the Aluminum with the steel from the brush. This will cause contamination Big Time!!!!!!! Even if it is a bad casting you will not have that hard of a time. Clean it with Acetone or Methanol using Scotch Brite. Make sure to rinse with the same to get out the Scotch Brite particles. While its wet blast it with air to dry it out. You'll be fine after that. Your channel is absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!! Your content and craftsmanship along with your knowledge is priceless!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

    I built my first home about 25 years ago. I designed it myself and sent the design to an engineer to put all of the structural and seismic calculations to the structure. Once building began, I had this neighbor always stopping by with “why are you doing it like that?” “Why not do it like this?” “I would have done it like this.”
    I finally told the guy “why don’t you get your own money and build your own house exactly the way you want”. “If I wanted your opinion, I would ask for it”. The same applies to this video, if Adam wanted opinions from random internet users, he would likely have asked for it.

    Adam, please ask your cousin to get a better quality hose clamp. I understand this is a budget build but a cheap clamp on a high performance engine is both dangerous to both those working around a hot engine and to the engine itself if a hose clamp fails Great video, I lived in Charlotte NC for a long time an love BBQ but I will say, you need to find an old school, Eastern NC whole hog restaurant. They are becoming rare as there are not many people willing to work all night every night to shovel coals under a hog on the grill.

  • @mackenziejames7427
    @mackenziejames7427 4 года назад

    Is there any reason that you are cutting feed into the blade from the right, with the force of the cut being in an upwards direction? Would there be any kind of difference in the cutting dynamics etc if you fed into the blade from the left, with the force of the cut being pushed downwards into the table? I ask this as a cabinet maker of 15 years, where you always try to have the machine be the backstop to cutting direction and the upwards cut seems wrong to me.

    • @gregorydiguido5078
      @gregorydiguido5078 4 года назад

      Adam generally prefers to "conventionally" mill. You are describing "climb" milling which generally only works well on very rigid machines and setups, but can cause chatter if the rigidity isn't high enough. In this part, however it probably would have worked since it's just a small piece of aluminum.

    • @nils1953
      @nils1953 4 года назад

      Not sure about this case, but usually if the fixture fails, you don't want your workpiece getting slammed into the table by the cutter and jamming them together. This way, if something fails, it simply lifts away.

      @@mackenziejames7427 would like to add to DiGuido, that conventional milling works with machines with backlash. Because the cutting forces act against the feed direction, the backlash in the spindle is counteracted by always being pushed to one side, whereas with climb cutting, the movement can become jumpy. Very similar to how you would cut with a router bit, so that is doesn't run away from you, or why you always cut from the front side of your table saw ( which is basically this exact cut, just upside down).

We have that sort of situation with the CNC routers, but the work platform is fixed, and all the movement of the cutting head is based entirely on the rotation direction, not taking into account the backlash in the machine.

    Could you have just tightened up the bolts in the holes with a nut on the backside or whatever and just faced off the flange and the bolts at the same time given you had room for the bolts (it appears you would), or is it not a good idea to do something like that with two dissimilar metals.

      I don't want to speak for Adam but I don't see why you couldn't as long as the cutter was up to the job of cutting the hardest material out of the two. The only problem you might run into is the holes in the flange are not tight to the bolt so if you got too aggressive you could move them in the hole, the cutting tool might not appreciate that.

    Adam, regarding the naysayers "your content has fallen off, or, losing your professional status" I ask where is their RUclips channel? For someone who never did any machine work it was interesting to see the process and how different tools work. Hopefully, you sparked interest in a few potential young students looking for a career path, with this video. You ever think of teaching?

    Audio issues are probably caused by unusual sun activity. There's been a lot lately.

    So, as a Non-Machinist.... Why not just cut everything? Why not cut through the flange, the bolts, and the 90 degree neck all at the same time ?

      Just don’t ask why not, Abom hates that😎😎 Multiple ways to do one thing, and he choose the way he prefers 😜😜

      Valid question. Trying to skim off a small amount from a flat surface with a saw blade often results in some amount of blade deflection. Would have been fine in this case with such a heavy duty horizontal mill, but generally just one of those things you avoid doing by default. Also would not have left nearly as nice of a finish (on a scrap part haha). The cap head screws you'll notice he purposely cut slightly shorter than flush with the flange. Again, unnecessary in this case, but just a habit formed to avoid subjecting your tools to hardened bolts in other cases.

      Also the extra work on the sawblade will wear it out faster, by taking the extra effort he will extend the life of the sawblade

    Nothing like modifying a factory part to be used for something 100% one made for at least for that type vehicle get her done LOL hope it don't blow a head gasket over it :-) :-)

    You could have just put a shim in the fitting instead of chucking up a second set up.

    I'm still confused by this project. What exactly was wrong with the aftermarket that would not work for his application? Was it the flange bolt pattern,, the thermostat size, the initial outlet diameter?

    • @REVNUMANEWBERN
      @REVNUMANEWBERN 4 года назад

      Think it was Mopar didn't make one where the location of outlet nect was as he wanted, I wanted a neck like the adjustable one he is cutting off for a Ford small block engine but noone makes such.

      He had the 2 different parts that could be combined into one (what the aftermarket would be) and have his cousin machine it up for him.

    • @jontisdall6248
      @jontisdall6248 4 года назад

      @Shain Andrews, I've watched the intro a couple of times and as far as I can gather it was a case of incompatibility of Chevy part (black one) to Mopar. Different flange and 'stat size apparently.

    • @yqwgjsg
      @yqwgjsg 4 года назад

      He said the aftermarket part was for a Chevy. It was not designed to fit the Mopar thermostat housing.

      @@jontisdall6248 Yeah I kind of got that impression too, but he never said exactly what the issue was. I kept waiting for him to hold the flanges together or something. I also know he isn't the biggest automotive guy and really he doesn't need to be. It just bugs me to "fix" a problem when the "problem" is not clearly articulated.
