Regardless of the copper bopper thing in the videos, I like the guys other videos, simple knifemaking from rebar with the simplest of anvil, he shows you can still have fun without all the fancy gear
Sad thing about chucke2009 now is that he has drank the coolaid of some of the American extreme preachers and is moving in the direction of ramming his opinions on morality down people's throats. Think he's losing all relevance since his projects have slowed down and he's trying to get a new...
I get then even cheaper than that....work supplies them! Haha but on another note the price I was seeing was the listings from wherever the company buys them in from, apparently they can only use certain approved suppliers because of some odd licencing thing, load of kack in my opinion but their...
For all countersink fasteners I use pre set micro adjust countersink cages, last time I checked they were around 60-80quid each then you buy the countersink bits after that. Brilliant if you have to do a lot of repeat holes to the same countersink depth. Some of the aerospace guys might have a...
I'm going to be following this with interest, had a look at the frosts kit and just don't know if it will be worth it or not, wanting to redo the barrels on my AYA 12bore. I had used the birchwood casey stuff before and it seemed ok but it's getting very light now.
Anybody looked at the...
Use a 3/16 drill, when we do aircraft 3/16 rivets we drill up to 3/16 then use 4.85 as the clearance size, think it's about 4thou clearance. With the 3/16 you might find once the heads off the rest will just turn through the hole and out without opening the hole up any wider
The quality of apprentices that were coming through our training centre started to get that dire they almost wouldn't employ anyone from straight out of school. Most of our apprentices are mid 20s and there was 1 guy started in his 50s! Thing I found so funny was some of the best fitters coming...
If the company is anything like the one I work for then i would be careful what I tell them. Occupational health in our place is like being arrested "anything you do say can and (most definitely will) be used against you"
What are they required for? Aviation ones are normally bought to suit a very specific task, I've fitted ones to aircraft parts that are only torque to 13 lb/ft and on other parts fitted an identical bolt, same sizes and grip length and visually identical to the other and is torque up to 80...
I like how he's not shy to use a hand file, I got rather annoyed at a few other YouTube people that said you can't do accurate work with a hand file. I read somewhere once that if the antikythera technology hadn't been lost the ancient Greeks could have been on the moon within 300 years.
If you want to use a big bottle of gas like a pub co2 bottle you will also need an adapter pipe to fit your small hobby bottle pipe to lead up to the full size regulator
I was told by a mechanic a while ago that red diesel was slightly thicker than standard white and a lot of farmers suffered with Isuzu trooper 4x4s with blowing seals and injector issues.
To me that's a gas mig welder, unless someone has had a root around inside and changed the polarity over. Range 1 and range 2 could possibly be a switch for gas or gasless but for a beginner I would get it running on gas, much nicer to start with.
Forget about welding on aircraft, there's surprisingly little of it apart from some stainless and titanium parts, I work for one of the mentioned companies and there is that little of it our company is getting rid of our welding/fabrications bit and outsourcing it to somewhere in france.
Yep close brothers are like a car finance thing... thought they were my public liability insurers but that's something else altogether I thought ran through them.
