    See, now there you go again! Dang it! Making those genius shop tools, that every guy with a shop wishes he could make but does not have the tools or brains to make it (and that would be me).
    Love these video's, and your work Mr. Cunningham.
    Thank you sir.

    Thanks Frank,
    Might be able to make it friendly to push out kingpins and hydraulic cylinder pins that are stuck or even a stuck ball joint.
    Just thinking of other uses.
    Maybe use Railroad tie plates with gussets for mounts, since there are a lot where I am located. Concrete brace rods and nuts look better than using expensive acme rods.
    Great idea!

    Any particular reason for using the coil threaded rod instead of an acme threaded rod? I could not find any particulars on the coil threaded or attributes of it.

    • @Digginok
      @Digginok  4 года назад

      sequoyah59 it’s pretty inexpensive here are the specs. I suppose you could use any thing you wanted, but I like how it threads fast. www.daytonsuperior.com/docs/default-source/tech-data-sheets/b12coilrod_td.pdf?sfvrsn=c9f2d560_31

    Seeing this is making me think of an application for a break for CMU block walls to get chip face. Maxwell Supply, here I come.
    Unrelated, but I just noticed a crack in the loader bucket (thin metal) of sub compact tractor. Do you have a recommendation for welder to repair?

    • @Digginok
      @Digginok  4 года назад

      That may work, as for the crack, it depends on the location. I will usually vee the crack and weld up with 7018. May need to plate it too.

    • @BroHay1025
      @BroHay1025 4 года назад

      Do you have recomendation for shop/person to repair? R/R the plates on the bottom that have been worn away over the years of use. The crack is on one of the corners where the plate steel has been ground down over the years.
      No box blade, so would back drag loooonnnnng gravel drive. I have since the improved skill since watching videos and spending a bit of time in a skidsteer.
      If not, general enough repair, I think, to use Google to find shop. Thanks.
