Lincoln Electric Century FC-90 Flux Core Welder Review
Looks exactly like the titanium 125. I wouldn’t be surprised if they are made by same company.
Will be trying this method, just subbed!!
I'm looking for ideas for something similar I think the commercially inclined railways have an automatic safety device something like Otis invented for the elevator so if the cable brakes someone isn't killed or injured. And also a system to lock the car under the tracks like a roller coaster has
I agree. I used some redneck engineering to make it work for 6 years but it wasn’t safe. Like you, I searched for a safer alternative, but it was beyond me. Good luck and stay safe
I am on different part of the globe, sir. Even english is not my native language. But, your belt grinder is just great. Simple but so sturdy. Really appreciate it.
Thank you!
You're welcome, sir. Well, just found out that you were in Forged in fire show. Big respect.
For a while now I've been thinking of building one of these but nobody seemed to ever move any large pieces of metal until now. You sir have done it. Congrats.
You sell these fam?
No sorry
How many hours is required to make this charcoal
Not that many - about 3 hours
How much for the service?
It turns out to be around $7 to $8 bucks per blade - excludes shipping and steel cost - very reasonable
Rick, you are a true craftsman, how do I buy your knives?
Thank you very much John. I have an Etsy store called The Booyah Forge The link is thebooyahforge.etsy.com
Super Video, und coole Idee mit der Kugel, das kannte ich bisher noch nicht
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you
Inspired me and my upcoming build
Incredible video, thank you for sharing with the world the results of your hard knocks. VERY well done, your level of detail and thoroughness was awesome.
Thank you!!
hello rick can i get an email for you i want to discuss the design with you
Straight to my compost tanks...
I now understand how charcoal is made!
I make my own for filtering shine as it drips. And after aging.
From what I have heard this is closer to what the Spartans would have actually used in close combat (once the spear was broken or discarded)- Not the proto-machete type blade seen in the movie 300. I have always loved a leaf shaped blade pattern, something very almost organic to it in my opinion. Excellent work sir.
Rick, thanks for the excellent video. Can you give any more information about what kinds of bearings and couplings you used for this project and where you sourced them from?
Very nice-looking lathe! I own a QC-42 that I'm in the middle of refurbishing/rebuilding/restoring. It was neglected for years, so it's not coming apart easily. Thank God for eBay sellers that have many original used parts! Mine apparently took a good whack to the cross slide/apron, because every control handle was broken off of it! Thanks for this video; it echoes my thoughts on why I bought Atlas, too, four years after you did. Edit: Mine came with the original cast iron base legs. It's a very heavy unit, slightly top heavy even, and was probably damaged while moving it. Not only was it neglected, it's here in Florida and spent several years in an open barn, so pretty rusty, too, but cleaning up nicely.
That is not the original chuck i believe. You have one hell of a nuts using this size of chuck for that late, i like it...
Great video, I wanted to know what thickness it was capable of cutting and all these so called pros never cut more than 3/16 You cut what I was needing to know. I bought this saw to cut R panel and this saw is quiet and leaves a factory edge.
Knew the sort of hyppthetical process, but this is a sueful visual as i was wondeirng how it scaled up would look. (From charcloth) like when charcoaleers used to be a thing.
Very nice ideas
Glad you like them!
Yes yes yes! I've been looking for a better way to make charcoal... Thanks Rick! Thinking outside the box
Good job think I’ll try it your way. Except I recommend raising the wall around barrel to concentrate heat. Even two plates of metal on each side for heat to go between
About efficiency, if you were to rub the forge for realøy long sessions, wouldnt something that apsorbs heat be better? If you insulate a second layer which reflects heat. As an example, you are forging something, you pull it out of forge to shape it, and turn down the propane while shaping. I imagine that the apsorbing stones will keep the forge hot for longer. I dont know tho, im still a beginner
Really helpfull video by the way, thanks for sharing your knowøedge
I have since coated the inside of my forge with a product called Satanite - which is awesome at reflecting back the heat
Hey Rick good video. I am trying charcoal for the first time right now, based on your video. Thanks heaps mate. Fingers crossed
Best of luck!
Well done video specially the video of the work of your daughter. Thank you for the experiment
Thank you! Cheers!
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice lathe
Thanks and welcome
Does it leave a stain on your arm? Not sure if its the correct word, but ive made a ring once wich left a collor on my skin.
It did not leave a stain. Because they were made of steel, they were less flexible to adjust and mold to your specific wrist
@@RickRabjohn ok thanks
Tried going about it with just a hair different design & it works. Low O2 & heat is all it really takes. 👍
Great to hear!
Would this charcoal be best for bbq?
I used it for cooking and it worked just like the store bought lump charcoal.
Do you have a list somewhere what you used for this build? On paper?
No but the first two videos of the series lays out the materials and dimensions - check them out
I like this design.! Do you sell the plans ?
I don’t have plans but I have laid out parts and dimensions in videos part 1 and 2 on my channel.
Is this charcoal flammable? Also, what are the benefits to charcoal versus plain wood burning?
Charcoal burns hotter and more consistent than wood
@@RickRabjohn Good to know. thanks
Could I coat the hard fire brick (which came with my propane forge as a base on top of the kaowool) with Satanaite refractory cement? Would this reduce the heat it absorbs? I also want to use some bricks as doors. Same question for these. Thanks.
You can - I coated my entire inside of my gas forge fire bricks both the hard brick on bottom and soft bricks on side and top with Satanite - helped a lot in retaining heat
Thanks for the reply. I've done this now. 1 kg just about covered the lot. I'm assuming that the coating can be thin, as it is reflective. I also hardened the kaowool first. I've bought some insulating firebricks to act as a makeshift door too. Ready to fire up as soon as I finish my anvil base (joining some logs together with studding).
Very informative video. That seems like it would save a lot of time vs beating it on an anvil to shape.
For sure
thank you , useful information
You are welcome
Where did you get your gear reducer from, this is the best and most simplest hammer I have seen , could you give me the name and size of the gear reducer thanks so much. Andy Australia
I found one on eBay but also Surplus Supply
Amazing design!! Just curious, why have the piston push up instead of down? Would the ram not return because of gravity?
The design was an easy way to get into a forge press without spending thousands but these small Air-Jack models have limitations like no upward power. So as an example - I can’t use it to drift out a tomahawk eye given it sticks
1/8,3/16,1/4 What parameters do you use to make it sound like frying bacon? Thank you, Happy and productive year!
Check out the video again which covers the parameters for different thickness
@@RickRabjohn I think you might want to watch the video again, Rick. The only metal you provide the parameters for is 1/4".
Thanks for posting this, and thanks for the ball bearing tip! That will make my first one lots easier.
Awesome!
That was cool 😮
That's really nice man.
I am planning a wood fired pottery build and have learned a lot on those materials. They are all made of alumina which is cheaply made with cheap Chinese power. The price depends on how many people get it before you. For Kaowool, you need to buy a 25 foot roll of 1 inch or whatever length it takes for other thicknesses for a good deal. This is way too much material for a forge. Soft fire brick are affordable by the palette. Also look for broken sales as industrial uses do not allow them to be damaged and they are easy to break. My recommendation would be a casting mix with water glass/sand and perlite. When done correctly, it forms a very solid casting that reflects heat very well. The hard brick is good to store heat. Also, heat exchangers to pre heat some of the incoming air will make anything work. I just learned a lot about high temp applications, so may be missing something. Good video!
It's a cable car if it's propelled by a cable driven by an engine located outside of the vehicle. It's a fernicular if it's a vehicle on inclined rails, regardless of how it's powered.
Great Job!
how much R they?
