Great video Steve! Thanks for your time and sharing... The saw will be a super addition to your shop! Take care... Oh yeah, great squirrel footage! Lol
Thanks for limiting us and exposing us to every second of dialing in parts. Once is enough. One reason i love fast forward on Keith Fenner who shows every second of every dialing and skips all rough cutting. 🙂
I am impressed with you and Elizabeth, as that squirrel seems to be quite comfortable around you. It will be interesting to see this saw come apart and how you make it work for your purposes again. I appreciate the detail you share rather than just having an 8-minute skim over and "there it is!" type video.
Thanks Steve , great video tear down and n clean up reassembled. O ring measure is a great tool for working on cylinders and such. Your lovely wife has a cute friend. Funny how some animals are like that. Going to be nice to have a good saw. Thanks again .
That squirrel is crazy! He can’t decide if he wants to cuddle or run away... Amazing how cleaning those dirty parts is so mesmerizing. That saw is coming along nicely.
Thanks for your videos, Steve. A different take, but lots of fun. Edit: Love the squirrel. The acceptance of wild creatures is quite a compliment to y'all.
Really enjoying the saw rebuild Steve. "You have to start to finish". Very true, as the old saying goes - "a long journey begins with a first step". The leaves down says Winter is just around the corner.
Hey Steve, great video! Like you said about mistakes, we all make them but the most important thing is that we learn from them. The first big job I worked on I was in a deep footer laying 12" block...upside down! One of the old fellows came over and said "green side up Greg". I was puzzled but he helped me by explaining how sod was laid and how block should be laid. Believe you me I didn't make that mistake again, Greg.
If you get any heavy quality cardboard boxes, cut them up and use them to line the bottoms of the drawers in the steel cabinet, also chuck a few of the bags of silica gel dessicant that come with new electrical goods in there as well. All the best from Somerset UK.
so happy to see you NOT use an impact on that puller. also, a neat trick having an adjustable wrench hold the ear of the puller to keep it from spinning, well done!
As several others have said, Peanut sole the show. Amazing! On another note, someone taught me any, many moons ago, a simple and very effective way to remove woodruff keys and similar keys. simply using a pair of wirecutters or flush cutters, place the flat back of the tool against the shaft and grip the end of the key with the cutter and lift. the tips act as a pivot point and the key will usually come right out. Obviously rust can and usually does make it more difficult, but the cutters will usually get a really good grip on the key. Never had one yet that this method didn't work with. Keep up the great work, love the channel.
Thanks for watching👍. I dont mind being upstaged by Peanut. Shes a wonderful little girl. She's more playful and than a house cat. Reminds me of a 2 year old child. Just has to get into everything.😁 I have removed woodruff keys with side cutters before, it works great.
Good to see you making progress on the old saw Steve. Glad for your video as i spent sunday taking pain killers and resting my bad knee after a long beer brewday Saturday so good to see decent content, tv is a joke. Interesting to see the squirrel interacting like that. We don't have them down here in New Zealand.
Good day Steve. Thanks for the smiles when your girl and the squirrel were playing. Great way to get my day going. Good to see you leave no stone unturned and glad you didn't hurt your back wrestling that motor out. They a heavy beasties for sure. Well fella it looks like this will be a great add to your shop. See ya next weekend good sir !
Great progress this week, Steve. Looking forward to the rest of it. Thanks for sharing. And thanks for rescuing the machine...it appears to have some good life left in it.
I want you to know how much I like watching you restore all your equipment. The attention to detail is inspiring. I wish I had the patience you have. hanks for the videos and keep them coming.
I have 2 of those cabinets myself. Really sturdy. I like the design that allows only one drawer to be opened at a time. Keeps it from tipping over on you. I picked mine up at habitat for humanity restore. really cheap $15 and another smaller 4 drawer at a yard sale for free! Glad you posted that, I thought I was the only one that repurposed odd stuff! "Adventures Await" Tim in Richmond.
Hi Steve - The rotating part is a Rotor sometimes called a squirrel cage Rotor and the part with windings is the Stator. The 5HP motors I worked on were bigger than that one but you are 60 cycles in USA as apposed to 50 in the UK. That motor is looking like new good job..
@@SteveSummers My "motors to be rebuilt" list keeps growing, and you just pop them out like candy! Been told to leave the lower plugs out and run the motor up to temp, as the grease will expand and ooze some more.
Scheduled maintenance is the life's blood of machine tools. Amazing what a few dabs of grease/oil can do to extend the life of a machine tool. Call those motor parts whatever you like, we know what you are talking about. Love the squirrel. My dog Patch made it his mission to protect me from every squirrel within 200 yards of the house. LOL Wish he were still among us. A lot of sweat equity, and some replacement parts will give you a nice saw. 'Til next time.
Great work Steve. One thing that I like to do with electric motors is to use Trichloroethylene (found in many "Electric Motor Cleaner" aerosols) on the windings and then seal them with Glyptal (brand name for red insulating varnish - MG Chemicals also makes one). Just in case the varnish on the windings is starting to fail. Anyways again, great work.
Around here, we have some groundwater plumes that are contaminated with TCE and need special treatment before the water can be considered safe for human consumption. It's a legacy from defense manufacturing from ~1940 through the mid 1970s *READ* the MSDS before you go using anything that might be toxic. This solvent isn't one to be treated casually - kind of like lacquer thinner, or methylene chloride. Lots of fresh air is important, and if you are spraying the stuff, you want your airflow going past you towards the work, blowing any vapor away from your face. Nitrile gloves and safety glasses are also good ideas - you don't want solvents on your skin or splashing into your eyes. No need to be afraid to use chemicals, but the safe work practices are there for reasons... and some of these things can really mess you up.
Steve, if you find some carpet being removed or some inexpensive remnants for drawer liner would be nice for that cabinet. I used that same material in my tool boxes and it works well. Good progress on the saw.
Great content Steve! From my experience, the bearing drains are to be left open while motor runs initially to allow any excess that would go inside onto the windings to escape. Let run 5-10 mins until excess escapes, then put plug back in. Still will have enough. I was taught, I believe by a bearing distributor 40 yrs ago the #1 cause of bearing failure is overgreasing. I ended up removing the grease fittings on motors as operators would commonly shoot 2-3 pumps into every fitting they saw. Every motor had gobs of grease on the rotors that had to be cleaned out. Motors that run continuously only need to be greased and excess drained annually. Motor shop that did our rewindings also confirmed that. Motors that did need rewinding almost always because over greased and than overheated.
We use 480V 3 phase 100 HP motors for our air blowers at our city wastewater plant. The ones we had to re-bearing or replace were because one knucklehead greased the top zerk fitting without removing the bottom plug first. Our procedure says to run and warm up the motor, then pull the bottom plug, then grease it while it is running. No failures from grease fouling in the last 6 years I worked there.
Steve, enjoy watching your videos and I know I’m late to the party on this but I have many of those file cabinets that I use for tool storage. There is a bar that goes in the back of them that you can slide small parts trays on to that really help me organize. For example if I have my pressure tester set for cooling systems I can put all the adapters in a small tray container and hook it on the bar.I might try to find a way to shoot you a picture
Morning Steve great content it will be nice to see that old saw come back to life and add to your capacity, if my memory serves me right HF, and the power hack saw, nice to see Elizabeth and the shop inspector Peanut the squirrel lol, haven't a grand weekend
The pump is probably an adjustable rotary vane hydraulic pump. I recently took one apart and it's a very interesting design. The variable volume comes from the outer ring being offset but movable, usually spring loaded. The outer ring start far offset creating a larger pump displacement. As the pressure rises, it pushes against the ring, moving it to a more centered position creating a smaller displacement. It's a brilliant design! I wonder what the benefit would be on a saw like this. Its quite a complicated pump for such a simple application. Thinking about it more, its probably because this application requires a higher flow rate and doesn't need much pressure. After all, you dont want to be waiting 20 seconds for the saw to raise after each cut! Most pumps like this that ive seen are under 1000psi but the volume output is very high compared to gear pumps.
You have a good wife. lucky man! I was married three times I had a construction co, worked hard, no drinking, saved money I repaired everything broken (washer, dryer, dishwasher, cars, trucks, tractors, etc etc. I could not get one woman to stay. Yep your a lucky man.
Ancient electrics... Check winding continuity before you touch anything. Especially after finding that nest. Mainly because you may be wasting your time. Ratty may have chewed a short or open. Check again after pick/air cleaning because that is very intrusive 'heavy' handling/abrasion. It's kinda designed to take it but that doesn't mean that it likes it or that it's not mildly risky. Great job, I'm new here, looking forward to more.
@drive 1967 I was telling Steve, a minute ago, I have squirrels all over my property, but just get hell from them for being in 'their' space. What amazes me, in when they have got into my house or shop, and ATE fiberglass insulation, (mice will, too). The droppings are full of it... can't imagine the itch THAT would cause! LOL
Hey Steve in the bowling business on Brunswick machines they Incorporated GE 1 horsepower motors which is exact mini version of that 5 horse.. except for the outside wiring box the one horse doesn't have that but you could set them side-by-side and they would look like Father and son...lol
Just discovered your channel a few weeks ago, but am impressed, with your knowledge and excellent explanation and attention to detail. Like your shop squirrel, too. I've got squirrels all over my property, but the only thing I get from them are hell are for being in 'their space'! You're a young guy, and I hope I can save you some of the agony I experience, after 50+ years of taking things apart, and trying to get them back together. Stop using your hands as hammers, even for what many would consider 'light' blows. I could feel it in my wrists, every time you hit that allen with your hand. The heel of the hand is a quick and easy bludgeon, but if you take a few minutes and look at some anatomy pics on the 'net, you will discover the area beside the base of your thumb is comprised of a bunch of small bones, held together by puny little ligaments. One of them, the navicular, (base of the thumb), is one of only four bones in the body with NO blood supply, (1 in each hand, and 1 in each foot. The foot is sorted a duplicate of the hand, bone-wise). You damage the navicular, it doesn't heal; can't, because of the lack of blood flow.) It isn't a single hard blow, or injury which will make your hands/wrists ache, at night, in the morning, or drive you to be willing to put your hand in a bucket of ice, or wrap ice bags around your wrists, just to get some effing relief, (I have done both, many times.) Try an ice bag on your wrist, some time, if you want to experience some excruciating pain. If somebody is willing to do it to get relief from pain, how bad is the original pain? I look at a lot of YT vids, and wish someone had told me, when I was your age, when I see people hit things with their hands. It's a matter of retraining yourself to use a hammer, instead. No different than training yourself to replace 'safety squints' with inexpensive pieces of plastic BEFORE you turn on the equipment, or use ear muffs, instead of turning your head away, thinking THAT will protect you from noise. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise. GeoD
Steve, At 32:20, you are shown assembling the shims and bearing preload Belleville spring washers. From what I could see, I think you installed the spring backwards. The rotor is going to spin, and the ID race is pressed on the rotor, hence ID race will also be spinning. The preload spring should then be pressing on the bearing OD so the preload is being applied to the non-moving race. Take a look and see if that needs switched. Maybe I’m wrong. If so, please let me know. Best of luck to you. I watch every episode and love all the content. ....... Joel
You could have shaped the key way on the lathe , whit a internal boring bar that use hss blanks. In cast iron or aluminum, takes like 3 min to make. I have a vertical slotter but still make manual key on lathe for simple jobs like yours.
That's a squirrel cage motor Steve....so rotor and stator are the correct terminology... Squirrel cage motor's work on mutual induction...that's what the shorting rings riveted to each end of the rotor are for...🇬🇧🙂
Steve, Parts are still available for your pump. You have a Continental hydraulics pump model # PVR1-6B06-RM-0*. They will also make a new pump if needed. I used to work at Continental Hydraulics. We supplied all of the pumps for the DoAll Saws that were built at the same factory. Website www.continentalhydraulics.com/product_item/pvr/

LOVE to see these old machines brought back from the edge of oblivion! Doesn't take much, just care and hard work.
Never in my life have I seen someone pull a squirrel out of a tree and give it a belly rub. That was incredible!
It was in every way. True hippie :D too cool
Haha, my sentiments exactly!
That was really cool.

Hi
After greasing the motor bearings, run the motor with the bottom plugs out till excess grease stops coming out.
Love the squirrel.
Thanks
when grease is flowing out the bottom,your bearing is already way over greased. New bearing require no grease.over greasing= over heating
Tip on your cabinet, heaviest items in bottom drawer, work your way up. Excellent videos!
The saw is coming along well . Also you are getting a great collection of tooling for the cutter grinder now . Cheers .
Thanks for your videos, Steve. A different take, but lots of fun.
Edit: Love the squirrel. The acceptance of wild creatures is quite a compliment to y'all.

I like that style of flywheel/pulley puller Steve, it can't fall off unlike the 2 and 3 claw ones that I have! Cheers, Craig
What the heck did I just see, Snow White and the silly squirrels? Great looking saw, I enjoy seeing these machines coming back to life!
Liz and Peanut need their own channel, I could have watched that all day :D
Can't wait to see the DoAll finished.
If you get any heavy quality cardboard boxes, cut them up and use them to line the bottoms of the drawers in the steel cabinet, also chuck a few of the bags of silica gel dessicant that come with new electrical goods in there as well. All the best from Somerset UK.
Your channel's always my first stop on Saturday morning!
GLAD to see such a old tool coming back to life, your doing a great job. thank you

Steve, we used to line bottom of tool draws with felt, and keep a small amount of oil on felt to help stop rust.
Getting pretty fancy with the camera work!
Hey Wes👍. Good to see you
After replacing the seals and wipers, always be sure to check that your cylinder is free of squirrels before re-assembly.
Thank you for making these videos brother
Excellent Video, Thanks so much !
Great video Steve. Thank you
Great progress this week, Steve. Looking forward to the rest of it.

Steve, if you find some carpet being removed or some inexpensive remnants for drawer liner would be nice for that cabinet. I used that same material in my tool boxes and it works well. Good progress on the saw.
Watch out for that squirrel. Suddenly, all your nuts are gone, and you are left with bolts and screws. 🤣
As far as your parts washer, I have an old Graymills machine and simply run mineral spirits in it. Works well, and it’s relatively cheap.
Great content Steve! From my experience, the bearing drains are to be left open while motor runs initially to allow any excess that would go inside onto the windings to escape. Let run 5-10 mins until excess escapes, then put plug back in. Still will have enough. I was taught, I believe by a bearing distributor 40 yrs ago the #1 cause of bearing failure is overgreasing. I ended up removing the grease fittings on motors as operators would commonly shoot 2-3 pumps into every fitting they saw. Every motor had gobs of grease on the rotors that had to be cleaned out. Motors that run continuously only need to be greased and excess drained annually. Motor shop that did our rewindings also confirmed that. Motors that did need rewinding almost always because over greased and than overheated.
We use 480V 3 phase 100 HP motors for our air blowers at our city wastewater plant. The ones we had to re-bearing or replace were because one knucklehead greased the top zerk fitting without removing the bottom plug first. Our procedure says to run and warm up the motor, then pull the bottom plug, then grease it while it is running. No failures from grease fouling in the last 6 years I worked there.

One of your best videos ever. I enjoyed every part of it.
That's incredible I was more interested in the squirrel that was wild. Never seen that before
The pump is probably an adjustable rotary vane hydraulic pump. I recently took one apart and it's a very interesting design. The variable volume comes from the outer ring being offset but movable, usually spring loaded. The outer ring start far offset creating a larger pump displacement. As the pressure rises, it pushes against the ring, moving it to a more centered position creating a smaller displacement. It's a brilliant design! I wonder what the benefit would be on a saw like this. Its quite a complicated pump for such a simple application.

After all, you dont want to be waiting 20 seconds for the saw to raise after each cut! Most pumps like this that ive seen are under 1000psi but the volume output is very high compared to gear pumps.
is that Squirrel Wild? If It Is It must Trust You so much, Amazing!!! "BLEW MY MIND THAT"

Ancient electrics... Check winding continuity before you touch anything. Especially after finding that nest. Mainly because you may be wasting your time. Ratty may have chewed a short or open. Check again after pick/air cleaning because that is very intrusive 'heavy' handling/abrasion. It's kinda designed to take it but that doesn't mean that it likes it or that it's not mildly risky. Great job, I'm new here, looking forward to more.
Boah, thats a serious saw you managed to get for your shop. Thanks for that video.
I’ve had several rodent type pets. They have all been super curious affectionate critters. They will 100% ruin stuff though.
She is a funny little critter. The woods is where a Squirrel belongs. They make a mess of anything and everything. But cute for sure.😁

New sub love the content love repairing old tools just dont make them like they use to
Thanks Steve!

Maybe a steering rack bellow from the wrecking yard Steve..
GREAT VIDEO !!
That's the closest look I've had at a Do-All. What a monster.
that old girl said wow that feels good when you cleaned her up if you listen close you can hear her sigh
Peanut gonna steal the show👍😁🐿🐿🐿
You could have shaped the key way on the lathe , whit a internal boring bar that use hss blanks. In cast iron or aluminum, takes like 3 min to make.
I have a vertical slotter but still make manual key on lathe for simple jobs like yours.
You clearly have friendlier squirrels than I do!
That's a squirrel cage motor Steve....so rotor and stator are the correct terminology...
Squirrel cage motor's work on mutual induction...that's what the shorting rings riveted to each end of the rotor are for...🇬🇧🙂
muy buen trabajo y me gusto la ardilla saludo Ariel de T.M.P
Steve,
Parts are still available for your pump. You have a Continental hydraulics pump model # PVR1-6B06-RM-0*. They will also make a new pump if needed. I used to work at Continental Hydraulics. We supplied all of the pumps for the DoAll Saws that were built at the same factory. Website www.continentalhydraulics.com/product_item/pvr/
Thanks for the info / website . I'll check it out.
How cool would it be if this built the pump here??
