I will take great care of him everyone!!
Thank you.
We must support the supporter! Make sure you care for yourself too Abby... 👍🏻
Abby thank you for bringing so much happiness to Adam. Since you have been around he's just a new man
Nurse Abby!!!
Abby Abby, you are THE GREATEST ... ALL Nice thoughts for you guys 😍
I think most of us strongly suspect what you are up to and you have my utmost respect and admiration. It is a BIG decision which is the right one and you will do just fine because you will approach it with the "I can do it" mindset of a great machinist. Your consideration of all us viewers is very humbling which is a testament to who you are, a really great guy. Abby is lucky to have you in her life and will be a big support as the two of you travel this road together. You have my prayers and best wishes for the success you so deeply deserve.
As for Abby making chips on a substitute SS, a bowl of chips and dip setting on the cross slide while she narrates your progress would be a hoot.
Thanks Ron! We’re having breakfast together and I read your comment to her. We both had a good laugh! Thanks for the support. 👍🏻
Adam, Thanks for thinking about your viewers, we do appreciate that. Good luck on your procedure and have a speedy recovery!
You don't owe us anything Adam, take your time and get better, we will all still be here when you get back
I wish the very best for you and Abby during your recovery! I don’t watch on Saturdays, but you are a tradition with my Sunday morning coffee :). Cheers!
Best wishes for a surgery with no issues and a smooth recovery. Take it easy for as long as the doctor says. We'll all be here when you get back into the shop.
All the support Adam. A month off is plenty of time to watch any older videos we havent gone back and watched. We will still be here when you come on back. Best of luck.
Never a Saturday without SNS and a good beer. Thanks for all the effort, and good luck to you on your medical procedure. Heal well.
Take care and take the time you need. We'll look forward to your return and a better you. God bless for a perfect procedure!
I came by you via a hearty recommendation from Uncle Bumblef*ck, AvE. Since then I have gone back and watched every one of your videos in the back catalog over the last few years. You're entertaining and informative and SNS, in particular, has found a place in my weekend routine.
I hope your time off goes well and I hope your elective goes off without a hitch!
Cheers!
Don't stress over producing content Adam, enjoy the period of R&R, put yourself first and the rest will happen in good time. Be Lucky! All the Best!
Best of luck on the procedure.
On the cylinders, the pair are swing cylinders for the backhoe.
On the assembly, a couple additional checks I make are when I I stall an oring, I check the parting line to be sure it isn't rolled. Additionally, after installing the rod guide (or gland as some call it) and the piston in the bore, I check to be sure I didn't shave any seal off on the edges. I usually just wipe off any extra grease and give it a quick rub with my fingers to tactically and visually check for anything. After 25 years, I have found a few that got scraped, but less than a handful.
I spent 15 years in a Deere industrial dealership and resealed many, many Deere cylinders with the cap seal. I just did two swing cylinders and he needs 4 or 5 more done and I am thinking of doing a video on them. I have a couple of tricks that are worth sharing.
Thanks for all of the great content and best of luck for you and your nurse.
I hope your medical procedure goes as smoothly as possible -- and i wish you a steady and rapid recovery.
All the best to you both (Adam and Abby) and a speedy recovery as well.
Another great video. Prayers for a smooth and speedy recovery.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Adam. Been watching your videos for years. Thank you for sharing your passion, it’s contagious! Best Regards
Take care and have quick recovery :-) I am sure that Abby will take good care of you!
Been watching for many years now Abom, whatever the procedure is God bless and you get your rest and know we know that Abby will be taking good care of you.
Good luck Abom!. Here's to your healthy recovery. Sit your butt down. Put your feet up. Enjoy a beer or two.
Adam,
I just want to say it has been a pleasure to watch you and it brings back many good memories. I was a machinist and a gear cutter for 17 years. We had many regular customers, but we had a lot of custom work. I just ran across your site today and I want to say thank you for the smile you gave me.
Thank you...
Peter
Thanks Peter! Hope you continue to enjoy the videos. I have many.
That seal installer from kit king is one of those products that looks so simple, but no one ever did it. It took someone to sit down and make it, and it helps everyone. I never buy knock offs of products like that. The designers/manufacturers deserve your cash.
Don't do it man, you don't need hair plugs. We like you the way you are!!
You MUST take care of yourself, so that providing RUclips content will continue to be pleasurable to yourself, as well as us viewers! The shop details are all that I need and thoroughly enjoy. Your additional understanding of fabrication techniques and your knowledge of and ability to accomplish basic good welding, makes for a nice variety of interesting projects. I certainly enjoy all the clips that you are able to get at the Fab Shop, including how what you've done, fits into the big assembly and what others have done. Me? I'm worn out, and retired. Thanks a million for your 2 channels!
Love your vids, so take care of yourself, take it easy, get some well deserved rest, and get back when you're ready.
I will be praying for you my friend for a quick recovery. I had a knife job done a few years back and the best advice I got was from one of the nurses in the hospital that said "go home and do nothing" and she was right. Mark
Yep, I’ll have to take it easy for a couple weeks
wishing you well in advance from the UK, I watch you videos everyday just about because I'm watching and learning all the time , thanks for all you efforts ,there brilliant .
Aloha Adam, maybe one of the reasons you are large is to hold that heart, thank you for your concern for us viewers. Take care of yourself first, we will wait and keep you in our prayers. Aloha ke
Akua
Abom79 I too had an old valve guy pass the warm watwe trick on to me. Works great!! He too has passed away and I think he would be glad his tricks are still in use. I have also seen bearings heated in hot oil instead of a bearing heater for installation. Good luck on the surgery. Hope to see you back soon.
That boring bar is mondo! Best of luck to you with your surgery. I'll keep you in my prayers. You have a great channel, Adam, and we all care for you.
Good luck with your upcoming surgery. Don’t try to rush back. Take the the time to watch tons of RUclips videos!
All of our best wishes are with you Adam, we're with you for you not just your content my friend. Take good care of yourself, no one is going anywhere.
I am sticking with you no matter what and wish you the best and a speedy recovery. You make my saturdays and I look forward to seeing what you have to offer. I love the Dan Post socks and have worn them for years.
Wishing you all the best Adam for your upcoming surgery I hope it all goes well and you make a full and speedy recovery.
Good luck with your medical. I'll add to my prayers. Iam not a machinist. My brother is a mold maker and repairs them and you kind of remind me of him. Watching you work gives me a insight into what he does. Thanks for all the past and future videos . Take as much time as ya need.
Good luck and best wishes to you and Mrs Abom with your procedure. We will all still be here when you return!
Whatever be that procedure, Adam, best of luck man, best of luck. And take the time. Family first, and you're family. So take care of yourself. Relax and enjoy slow time.
You'll be in our thoughts and prayers. And a big "Bless You" to Abby for stepping up.
I'm sure the medical stuff will work out just fine. Take it easy and don't rush it. Best way to have a great recovery. Always happy to see what you have to share on video. Maybe do a couple "best of" videos? You have lots of great content to choose from.
Praying that you will be well cared for by the Great Physician, and Abby, of course. Curious to see what you have stashed away for us to enjoy while you recover.
Good luck on your recovery excellent tutorial on hydraulic cylinder rebuilding. Have to say Hercules seal company is fantastic they treat the individual the same as a large company. Rebuilt 7 cylinders for my son's backhoe this winter and when I had to call customer service they treated me no different than their largest customers. Prices are great and shipping is fast and very reasonable. You can go online and order there or call for their free catalogs which I also like to work from and order by the numbers in the book. I also have a good relationship with the local hydraulic shop when I only need a few quick items. Thanks for the videos
Take it easy and take it as long as you need, speedy recovery my friend.
You are a valued RUclips 'friend' to many people. Take care of yourself first, we'll be here when you are ready.
I have no idea why I enjoy them so much but I love these hydraulic cylinder videos. I find them very relaxing.
Hey Adam, you take all the time you need. We'll still be here when you get back.
Another great s&s as always I'M one of those that watches all your videos on both channels. Will be praying for you and for God to be with the surgeon and everyone at the hospital caring for you. Pray that God puts his healing hand upon you and you get back up to speed soon. Do what they say to do and you will be fine. Have a great weekend. God Bless!!!
Great video Adam! And definitely relax during your recovery. I just had bariatric surgery,and a hernia taking off my spleen. 6 weeks ago, and just went back to work about 10 days ago. take care hope to see some videos when you're recovered
Good luck and let me know how that goes for you. 👍🏻
The most detailed/helpful video on replacing hydraulic cylinder seals I've seen! Thank you!
The number 2 stands for the hardness of the grease. The lower the number the softer the grease. Lower numbers are commonly used when grease has to be pumped a certain distance to where its required. Number 2 is most commonly use in industries as it stays in place when applied.
You will be in our prayers. I like the Dan Post sock I got after watching you. Great video.
I’m enjoying mine as well and want to get a couple of the steel toe version of them.
Good luck on your surgery and I hope you heal quickly. I look forward to the videos whenever you get a chance to post them.
Take your time, Adam. Your recovery is more important than feeding us with videos. Get well soon.
Adam, best wishes for the procedure and hope your recovery is quick and easy mate. I’m sure many regulars will agree you shouldn’t feel pressured to push content when you have personal stuff to deal with. We’ll all be here regardless mate.
Plus I’m sure Miss Abby will nurse you well good.
Cheers
Thanks for another great video. Best wishes for your upcoming surgery. Hope you have a swift recovery.
good job on the cylinders. one trick i learned when working in a hyd shop was to put the seals in boiling water . it softened the seals and made it easier to install . those small cylinders can be a real bear to rebuild we also used automotive piston ring compressors to collapse the piston seals and sometimes some good old shim stock and hose clamps. those seal colapsers are practically indispensable for installing small seals. best of luck with your procedure. we are all pulling for you. .
Adam, Best of luck with your medical thing. Prayers coming your way.
Eric
Adam, started watching about the time yo started the rotary welding table then went back and watched all that preceded those. Have watched every one since and plan to continue. Learned a ton! Best wishes and prayers on your procedurre, read many of the comments below and believe several of us have an idea of what is going on. I did it in late Dec 3016, has changed my life for the better unbelievably. wish I could tell you all about it, might halp. Thanks Abby!!!
Adam, thank you for worrying about our viewing habits. It's not a problem if you need down time. Remind everyone to review things by watching older videos while you're out of the office. I'm glad you are taking care of yourself, everyone should. Have a good rest, if you can. I think that seal kit is a cool item, thanks for showing it. Good luck!
Grease Properties. Greases are classified into nine consistency grades (000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) established by the National Lubrication and Grease Institute (NLGI). NLGI #000 greases are nearly fluid, while NLGI #6 greases are nearly solid. ... The higher the penetration number, the lower the consistency number.
I always learn something from you and this was no exception. Thank you and thank you for being there. Please take care of yourself. Best wishes Adam
Hope it all goes well with you Adam, you have a lot of support out here in the rest of the world! Thanks for giving a heads up. Cheers, Troy
Best wishes and a restful recovery Adam, looking forward to your return.
Hi Adam my heart went when I noticed Abby’s comment regarding looking after you thought the worst for a second
You’ve put me at ease now after tuning in to last nights S&S thank god
Speedy recovery my friend all the best
LA UK
Thank you Adam for another great SNS and good luck with your upcoming procedure. Matt C.
Hi Adam,
thank you again for the videos, I really enjoy them all. Good luck with the medical issues and please ensure you take your time in recovery. We will still be here looking out for you when you get back in the shop. Dont rush it though!
best wishes
regards
Gareth
Adam, Good luck and best wishes for a speedy recovery! Like others before me here in the comments have said, don't feel too pressured to post content when you have important personal stuff to take care of. Personal comes first. And, I see that Abby has said that she will take great care of you -- I'm sure that she'll make sure that you won't get bored and try to jump back into either your day job or your own machine shop work before you are properly healed. It sounds like you've planned ahead and have enough content saved up to cover your down time, so please don't feel pressured to jump back into creating more content for this channel.
I should have videos I can edit while I’m home recovering. 👍🏻
good luck with the surgery..........my prayers will be with you
Hi Adam,
from someone who has fitted a whole load of rams, I can tell you that the protection you added to keep the bearings clean will be greatly appreciated at the other end. It shows you have pride in what you do.

Wow, this was four years ago! Glad you're still pumping them out. Enjoying the new shop videos.
Our time on Earth is not guaranteed. Take care of yourself first and foremost. Enjoy the downtime, but above all just enjoy life and friends. Get well, Adam.
The college I work for is about to scrap about a dozen of that style of Aloris boring bar. Some of them are even brand new, but we don't have a need or use for any of it now so onward and outward it goes!
There's a tool for everything and Abom has one of each. Wishing you a successful medical procedure and easy recovery. I know you have an amazing support system that will help you bounce back.
Adam, best of luck with your procedure. Love your videos, especially SNS. I'll be praying for you.
Good luck. You're one of the good guys. I'll say a prayer for you.
Have an easy surgery and heal quick. We'll still be here.
Best of luck with your procedure! You take care of yourself and us loyal viewers will patiently wait. Thanks for the video!
Hey there Adam, I wish you the best during your procedure and a speedy recovery! Yes i love your weekly content and very much look forward to it. However you do what ever you have to do to make the best you you can be :)
Best of luck with that procedure, Adam. You are the finest Made-in USA material so I'm sure everything will turn out fine!
I do a lot hydraulic cylinders myself and enjoyed this video. Great tips for rebuilding even for us with experience. The kit king tool would definitely make installing rod seals easier even if it doesn't always work perfectly 😁. For lube I have always used petroleum jelly mostly because it comes in a tub with a good lid and it sticks to what ever it touches and doesn't wipe off easily. But just wanted to say thanks for all your videos and yes its my Saturday evening relaxation time and always look forward to watching and learning.
God bless you brother . Hope all goes well. Looking forward you see you when you recover
If you do not own a seal collapse tool, then you can cut the flat center out of a coke bottle, 16,oz or a two liter. And wrap the plastic around the seal, and then tighten a band clamp around the plastic. That will shrink the seal back up.. Works great on transmission seals.
Hey Adam, Another great video. Take some time off and take care of your self. We'll be here when you get back.
"Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's first bionic man. Abom79 will be that man. Better than he was before. Better... stronger... faster."
Adam wishing you all the best on your upcoming procedure. We'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
Small world. INA Bearings was one of our regular clients back in my electrical engineering days.
Hope your 'procedure' goes well and you manage to endure the down time. I appreciate all the work you do for your youtube channel very much bro!
Best of luck with your surgery! I am one who watches every single weekend.
Thank you for the gift idea of the Darn Tough socks. I just ordered a pair for my son for his birthday.
They are really nice quality socks. 👍🏻
Thank you . BTW, I like your viedos. What you do is kinda over the top for me but, the relevance to how things can be repaired applies and I always learn something. Thank you for posting. Hope your medical procedure goes well.
Thanks for the heads up, take care of everything and wishing you a speedy and healthy recovery 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Best wishes Adam for a speedy recovery. I appreciate all your hard work on the videos. Take care.
Greetings
Fine work. Everytime i enjoy it to see your workflow.
I like it
Best wishes from an German Machinist
I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery, Adam. Your health is way more important than our entertainment my friend. Looking forward to seeing you up and about again!
Grade 2 is the thickness/viscosity...#2 is 'standard' for automotive use. Grades go from 000 (liquid) to #6 very hard, about like cheddar cheese.
Thanks. Had to scroll way to far to find this comment.
We’ll be saying extra prayers for you both Adam. Thanks for all you share and have trust in your caregivers!
You're the best youtuber out there, I'll increase my Patreon pledge because I'm so appreciative of the great content you create
Thanks so much Aaron!
You are a smart man to prep for everything as best you can. Then take the time to heal up right. Don't get pushed into coming back until you can. I almost lost the best manager I ever worked for when his management team talked him into coming back too soon. He wound up with a lot of additional problems as a result. Theres a lot of stuff I need to re-watch anyway, so, we'll be good to go as soon as you are!
Take your time and do whatever the doctors say to make a full recovery. Don't worry we are here for the duration. You mean a lot to us buddy. Take care of yourself.
wish you nothing but the best. enjoy all your video's. AvE was the one that mentioned you and have always looked forward to learning from you. I always wondered how the things you do were done. thanks and rest easy
best wishe bud, I've had a number of operations. I wish you a fast recovery, and we will be here when you get back!
Thanks for thinking of us while you are gone. Good luck with everything.
Keep well I watch your sns on Sunday night in Australia, thanks for your videos I have learned a lot. As a guy that’s had his heart rebuilt (genetic problem) your health is more important than a couple of videos . The likes of me will still be here when you get better .
