    To me, this is the type of video format I learn a lot from. To the point, well thought out and executed. Keep the repairs and fabrication coming.

    Excellent video and excellent work. I am very impressed with the quality of the bracing and beefing up you did. It's great to see someone who isn't afraid to build something way stronger than it was beforehand. I really enjoy watching your videos and I can hear your voice just fine.

      This one was originally designed for sugar beet/ fodder beet. Because they tip at the toe they give the machine more lift height

    I can see from your videos Oliver, that you’re always considering strength and loading - my old Dad’s favourite saying was ‘what’ll do a lot ‘ll do a little’ - like you he always wanted to leave anything stronger than original.

    Fantastic job . With minimal bracing , surprised to see no worries with alignment after a single vee joint of that size . Recently welded some 32mm 90 deg angle plates for the milling machine & had to go the 3&1 rule to keep them dead square with no bracing . 👍👍👍👍

    • @snowballengineering
      @snowballengineering  2 года назад +2

      I think if the weld had been at 90degrees to the leg it would have been a different story.

    Outstanding job lad.... To see the job progress from the begining to the completion has been a thoroughly enjoyable and informative experience. I have one question for you, or anyone else who is reading this, That of the cost involved.. The materials alone would cost the earth, never mind the, time and complexity of the repair which has been a delight to see and you mentioning the owners budget, but surely, after all this, the cost between repair as opposed to an entirely new unit, can't be that much difference

    That “wobbly” bit you’re speaking of comes from the wandering or reach from your boring bar you can greatly diminish it by keeping the bar as close as possible to the cutting surface as possible.

    Great video(s) and I love your shop and equipment, definitely pro. You kept mentioning price so I have to ask, what does a job like that go for - just a ballpark?
    I’ve been self employed for a couple decades and I’m sure you’ve been in the game for a bit too. I had to steer away from customers that wanted to cut corners. More often than not when the thing that they didn’t want to pay for failed, that cheaper price was the first thing they forgot. But, there’s no doubt, what you did do will outlast that bucket and probably the customer too.

      I - and it seems many others here - really like the straight talking down to earth way these videos are presented. RUclips is full of slick editors and "production techniques" aka gimmicks - but here we have good honest video making along with a highly skilled guy trying to share what he does. So rather than talk about what things lack - accentuate the positive and be grateful for the fact he is trying. btw: the 278 subscribers to your channel says something about the video quality of your 7 videos - so maybe when you got your act together you would be better able to "advise" - just saying 🙂
