    Love how you always ask techs to explain how something works and then you do all the ezplaining. You're the man!

    Just a suggestion for any of the pins is to camfer the ends (.050" for the first 1/4') for a lead angle and if the pin is cross drilled for retention, is scribe the end of the pin with the location of the hole.
    Also if you take a brake cylinder hone, clean the pin holes out of paint and debris, and a light coat of grease or oil.
    Nice looking machine, bucket and thumb.

    I like how Mike says " so tell everyone about the thumb and difference ".. Guy gets 3 words out and Mike talks for 10 minutes and rep doesn't get a word in...you didn't give the poor guy a chance.

      I like it as well since the experience &/or EXPECTATONS of the "USER" is so important to hear about over what is from the drawing board. PLUS, MIKE gets excited over new/improved products. He did ask several pertinent questions. I think it's all good. Sonny

    Now that DP saw the speed settings on the thumb controller, you know he's going back in and bumping it up from 2 to 5, and the joy stick functions will match the 120. LOL

  • @tiredoldmechanic1791
    @tiredoldmechanic1791 3 года назад +5

    I like all pins to be made like bolts with a castellated nut on one or both ends to prevent the bosses from spreading. The pins also need a good taper to help direct them through the hole. When pins are held in place with a cross bolt, the bolts tend to break or shear when the pin gets hit. Then the pin slides out and things get bent.

    We love our weld on hydraulic thumbs. We work in so much non stop boulders. A main pin thumb sometimes dont fair so well in non stop big rock puts alot pressure on pin. Bye bye pin. I do have a main pin. Wrk breua on our 35 minnie. It is nicest to use for following the bucket

    • @python3574
      @python3574 3 года назад

      Mike would lose his mind when he broke the main pin on a Kubota mini when he saw the idiotic stress point right in the middle of the pin that Kubota seems to think is a good idea for greasing the pin. One Andrew Camarata figured out quickly how to make a MUCH better pin, and it didn't take long for mine to break and to make one just like Andrew did. No problems since. Thumbs DOWN, Kubota!

  • @jimlane9039
    @jimlane9039 3 года назад

    Just a suggestion from a 54 year hydraulic guy. Look at Flaretite Seals for any 37 degree fitting. Its a cone shape sealing ring which sits on the Male fitting that has a coating of Loctite. The Loctite pools on the male cone when torqued to factory specs. Vibration will not loosen the female swivel fitting when these seals are used. It does come loose when you have to replace a hose. A new seal is required each time it is tighten then loosened. The only better holding devise is safety wiring the swivel nut. The seal are very reasonably priced when compared to the cost of Hydraulic fluid and machine down time.

    DP gets to play with all the good stuff!
    It looked like the thumb wasn't "perfectly" centered on it's pivot at first -- seemed to bind up slightly with the bucket teeth when it was being closed...if so I assume it was an "easy fix" with the shims that were provided.

    Hello,
    Maybe a reason for that but I don't understand why the thumb would only have two teeth in the center and not 4, that would not make it wider and improve the grip of objects a lot, right?
    in any case this little machine is superb, the thumb and the bucket suit it perfectly,
