Always enjoy your videos. You have a knack for fixing things on the cheap that seem to work so well. You also put a dose of comedy for even more entertainment. Thanks so much for sharing your video with us. It was awesome!!
I don't know about anyone else but I'm gonna give you a "thumbs up"! This is like many of my own projects over the years - CBE - crude but effective. I agree serrations would be helpful and make the thumb more versatile.
i am pretty hard on things and i tore the steel on the backhoe. the weld didnt break, but it is so handy its worth the time. i think for 150 buck you can buy one off ebay.
i have a jahovas witness temple 1/4 mile from me and they were constantly knocking on my door. i became totally irate and went off on them. im now on the do not knock list lol.
Tip for torch shut off, always turn off the gas/ acetylene before the you shut off the oxygen. Excess gas in tour he can explode. I really like your videos!
Hi Mike. Think I am one video behind , Good job. Liked,shared.All my best. Had some of those people come by,about three weeks ago knew what was coming. Told them I wasn't interested. I hate to be rude ,but sometimes you just have too.
i tried to show in the video some fails at first and then toward the end the torch work is like it should be. thats real life . i dont think anyone can be proficient with something when not being practiced on a regular basis.
@@mikekisch5563 I confess,, I did not watch the whole video,, :-),,,, It usually takes me about 10 to 15 minutes to clean up a ratty tip,, as long as it has not been used as a hammer,,, With a tip facing tool and a new set of tip cleaners,, I can get a cutting stream that is 6 to 8 inches long,,, When you get to that point, the torch will make a very special sound when pressing the cutting handle,,

Cool build and so cheap Mike love it, thank you for posting. glad you didn't crush the T.P.
I have a thumb on my 38hp Kubota and it makes the whole machine 1000Xs more versatile. Beautiful work you'll love it.

answer the door in your underwear sporting some morning wood and invite them inside with an evil smile and laugh, they will NOT be back !

Wow. Never seen anybody work so hard for a pack of toilet paper... Just goes to show, toilet paper is a big commodity nowadays.

Not bad for scrap steel. The main thing is, it works! Set my pants on fire the other day too. Good thing I was wearing high top boots.
Kind of a touchy Torch.
i bought it from harbor freight years ago. it is not a victor for sure.
still wondering about the popping from the engine?
I agree with put some dentures on the thumb.
And make it wider.
I imagine it will if you can get the Tractor through the store door ! Lol
Thumbs up. Beautiful job sir are you going to cut teeth in your thumb? That was one hot job. Hahaha
look in yunkyard for un cilinder an aditional control and them puting on like a graplee
a hydraulic thumb would be nice
Go out and find some TP! The thumb kind of resembles mine.
If I was there with you,, I could show you how to set up your torch,, :-)
