Repair DAMAGED Hydraulic Cylinder for CAT 651 Scraper | Part 2
This video is Part 2 of repairing a damaged hydraulic cylinder for a Caterpillar 651 Scraper wheel tractor. This is the Apron lift cylinder on the machine and has been damaged by something causing massive amounts of scratching inside the barrel and on the piston. In this part 2 video we continue on with the new barrel and heat up with a flame torch before interference fitting the head flange. We then metal core weld the head flange on to the new barrel before finish honing the internal diameter using our Delapena vertical honing machine. The new barrel is completed with fitting and welding on the barrel end. We also repair the hydraulic cylinder piston by machining down the scratches using our lathe.

Yummy yummy, Tim Tams. Or daughter got us hooked on Tim Tams a couple years ago and they are fantastic.
Please, its not my Dog, but i like him like if he were, do not give any chocolate at all, this could create a heart instant issue believe it or not. I know is please him but he is a dog, and we need to be responsable for him. Thank u a lot.
What if it rusted on it way over
I weld metal core on pressure piping like how you do on these cylinders, and the way we do it we roll the pipe away from ourselves and as long as your settings are right (high wire feed like how u have it) the weld is just as strong but the profile of the weld is very smooth, not so peaked, and there's less spatter. You should give that a go on a piece of scrap and see how you like it
Hello, do not be bored, I have a question. Why did they make a few holes in the top of the jack instead of a valve ????
The safety inspector is definitely the star of the show :D
Oh yeah he brings all the talent and good looks hahaaa
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering and Carl (A.k.a Curtis xD) does the work xD
He always is.
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Don't feed him chocolate, it's toxic for dogs. vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/chocolate-poisoning-in-dogs I hate to be that guy, but having paid thousands in vet bills and loving my dog(s), I really don't want anything to happen to him.... Also grapes/raisins are even more toxic.
Yeah he is HES THE STAR 🌟 ALRIGHT 🥰
Great job again Kurtis, I've been retired for 5 years after 50 years of machining and still watch and enjoy your videos it just gets in your blood, how sad am I. The smell of that honing oil still comes back to me every time I see your machine.
Hey Ray thanks for watching mate! Glad you enjoy it and brings back some great memories. Have a good one 😎👍
It will be doing your brain good to watch these videos as you will be thinking your way through the process and keeping those neurons alive. Keep your brain sharp and have a great retirement.
Mate, if you hadn't led the way we wouldn't know it now. Thanks cobber.
Man that’s a Mother of a Honer……everything is big down their…….really enjoy watching your patience in doing a 100% job very meticulous and precise……scratch to dogs ears…… he’s a hoot to watch opening packages and seems to know which are his……😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Clearly your wife has as much patience as you do for your machining. Love your work.
I come here for..1 , the safety operator. 2 , the out takes at the end. 3 , the engineering bit in the middle. Good episode !
Just amazed at the pro job you do in bringing something that damaged back to life. What I would also like to compliment is the tremendous job done in the video and editing departments without which none of us would know how good a job you do. Hats off to the videographer as well as the safety officer in these videos. Thank you for allowing us to catch a glimpse of your world.
Hey mate this is one awesome comment! We both enjoyed reading this, thanks for taking time to support the channel. Cheers 😎👍
Mrs K did a good job on that editing at the end of part 2, left us all wondering if it was jammed😬😬
Hahaa yeah she knows what to do 🤣
What a cliffhanger! And then he just taps it in place. Haha.
@@benwinter2420 Spoilers dude!!
I thought Kurtis had burnt his hand thru the glove. FFS I was worried - thought we'd see a big blister, but it was only a little tap 😂
Right when I think that there cannot possibly be another mind blowing machine in your shop……..you show me another mind blowing machine!!! Great work!
Color me shocked! After 43 years I've finally seen it all...it IS possible to have a well trained safety inspector! Top work from NOT CARL and the missus! I'm just stunned at the duty cycle of that welder.
hahaaa yeah he's a the best safety officer, easily bribed 🤣 The duty cycle on the welder is 60% at 500amps and 100% at 400amps
WIA made great welders.
Camera Girl seems to know just how to get the best shots - I marvel at her talent - She is a true artist. I am guessing she does all the editing also. Again hats off to her
One day you’ll get the intro in less than three takes that’ll upset us I love the antics And listening to giggling and homeless , fantastic job love watching you reconstruct or totally rebuild thank you
i'm working on it 🤣 after 18 months there has been some improvement lol
The Safety Inspector in SloMo, Hilarious !! Excellent Machining Once Again Kurtis ! Great Camera Work also. Take Care all B Safe 🇨🇦
All right, let's get it going. One of my favorite machining channels.
Thanks mate! Enjoy the vid 😎👍
I'm barely above "dangerous shade-tree welder" and I fully and completely sympathize with that feeling you get when you're trying to heat-shrink two parts together... and you get the hot part to go on *just a little* and invariably it suddenly yoinks itself crooked and binds right up.... that overwhelming anxiety, knowing that with every passing millisecond, heat energy is just *yeeting* itself through that point of contact from the hot part to the cold part... that within seconds, every last shred of the precious thermal differential that our human brain worked so hard to create will not only be gone - it will never be achieved again now that the parts are in contact with each other... it's a deep, existential dread, for sure!
...it takes PRACTICE-!!!
@@daleburrell6273 Yep, yet there’s always that one like the head collar that Kurtis had in this video and I bet he’s had tons of practice! It still has the exact effect described and that fraction of a second to grab the conveniently placed hammer feels like an eternity!
The safety bloke is definitely why I watch. These films. He is a great little fella
heavy machinery doctor I congratulate you I would like to state that I enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you very much! Glad to hear you enjoy the vids mate
Love the pup. He always looks so happy.
He's got a good staffy grin
Nothing better than watching Drunk Carl on the outtakes if you slow it to a quarter or half speed.
hahahaa shit don't give our viewers ideas 😂😂😂
Non-drunk outtakes are already good enough to make me shit myself 😂
Girl Nam, oh my heavens, that is so funny, I tried it and your right,,,,thanks for the tip....cheeers
HAAAAA🤣
I have not used a honing machine in over 30 years but, when you zoomed on on the parts, i could SMELL IT!
I really, really love the concept of "heat-shrink fit"!!
Thanks to Mrs K, we have a real front row seat👌
Thanks for watching! Support like that makes it more worthwile. Cheers
My anxiety from the ending of the last video has finally been relieved!
Hahaa sorry to keep you hanging mate 😅
Should have known better and not second guessed the workmanship
Nice to see the old honing machine in use on a job. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching mate!
Safety officer & full time international good tidings ambassador! Your outtakes prove you'll be the next "Crocodile Dundee!" Such great script retention Where's your helicopter?
Nice job Kurtis, I never tire of watching these big cylinder repairs. Thanks and cheers mate!
Good to hear you enjoy watching them mate. Have a good week 😎👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Holey smokes! congratulations on the subs, I didn't realize how many you had until now. I guess you better send a big thanks and congrats to Mrs. K and the staffie pup for their effort as well, cheers and well wishes to you all!
If I had ever accomplished a cross hatch like that, I'd have a photo framed on the wall. Holy crap!
Kurtis.....i am strangely addicted to your videos.....Precision being the operative word....mate you are brilliant.....thx....
Good to see the head welded on hot too. Great job all round. Love the honing machine. That worth its weight in gold. Stay safe.
Aaaah emery cloth, the maching world's duct tape.... fix that stratch, smooth the finish, adjust your taper, hone your drilled holes, it does it all. Great videos.
haha yes very versatile stuff that! Thanks for watching mate 😎👍
Your videos could be used in all kinds of trade schools as excellent tutorials for future machinists.
Wow, thanks! Appreciate it 😎👍
I like the slow Mo in the beginning keep up the great work I enjoy watching your videos every day
You're little pest is a sweetheart. Hard not to smile when he's on camera.
She sure does have Homey trained up true and right. Makes one wonder how your training is coming along Kurtis. Great work and thanks for sharing!
Kurtis needs a bit more work 🤣
It seems you're enjoying those cold ones, Carl. Thanks for once again saving our Friday. Homey is obviously doing well by doing good! Thanks from Germany.
'Do I want more videos like this?' YES FUCKING PLEASE!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
The outtakes are great. Though there wouldn't be half as many if Kurtis was a well trained as the safety officer. Keep up the good work guys.
I follow you from Cyprus, good luck
WOW thanks for watching!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering I wish you continued success
Your channel has become the go to show at lunch! We are on an oil platform in the gulf.
Wow that's fucken cool, thanks for watching!
EXCELLENT!!! THAT VERTICAL HONING TOOL IS KIKASS!!1 NICE WELD BUILDUP ON THAT FLANGE RADIUS!!
When a job looks so easy, you know it's a pro doing it.
Another masterpiece! I just love that honing machine, it's an engineering marvel in its own right, and worth its weight in gold I'd imagine - Homey obviously agrees, lovely cross-hatch.
Good to see that the flange did fit after the cliffhanger in part 1! Awesome work! 👍
Great vid kurtis worth the wait . Been a shit workday so great to unwind to this . Bet that flange was a bit warm .. great to see homeless behaving and getting his treat . Thanks
Hey Gary! Hope you have a better day today mate, thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it.
what should have been said Thats another job down and some folk should be happy, as usual Kurtis a marvellous job, great to watch a crafts man at work.
I was hooked with the slowmo saftey officer start. it just got better from there!
haha yeah the missus thought that was a good intro. Thanks for watching
Another great job. Although I have nothing to do with machining, I watch your movie with pleasure. Greetings from Poland :-)
Hey mate that's awesome thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it
That answered my question about finishing the inside of the cylinder. You have a very well-equipped shop.
Hi Kurtis and Mrs Kurtis ☺, thanks for another great video, part 2 had a nice selection of operations ,stunning workmanship as usual, and terrific camera work that's up there whith the best on youtube, and this is why I'm glued to your chanel, and not forgetting the security guard , he's very flexible , and doesn't mind rolling about on the floor either, lol. Stay safe you two, best wishe's to all, Stuart uk.
Hey Stuart! Hope you're having a good weekend mate. Your comments never disappoint we both enjoy reading them and really appreciate support like that! Makes the extra work worthwhile when we know viewers enjoy and appreciate what they are watching. Have a good one mate, cheers Kurtis 😎👍
Hello Kurtis, Good to see the Delapena vertical honing machine in action… I am not sure why I like that bit of kit, but I do… I liked the black and white transition to colour at the start of the video. As always have a good weekend… Cheers. Paul,,
Hey Paul thanks for always taking time out to watch and drop a comment we appreciate that a lot! Have a good one mate 😎👍
Coffee ✅ comfy chair ✅ Great vid to start my Friday off right, ✅. Cheers Guys! Homeless is looking sharp and keeping things safe, way to go doggo! On a more serious note, I really like the music Your Missus picks for the time lapse, it’s very relaxing. Again, cheers, always love the vids! Much respect from Florida
Second that
Hey mate an awesome comment once again! Thanks for watching glad you are enjoying the vids and editing 😎👍
Curtis - You may never give "The King's Speech" But you are a great ambassador for the working man of Australia _ Kudos mate !
I just ordered a hat! These are great instructional and motivational videos for my little Sherline projects.
Love this channel. I have only subscribed to 2 channels on KZhead, yours being one of them. I find the precision machining on these enormous parts absolutely fascinating. It would be really awesome if ever your customer could share photos or a video clip of your parts being installed or used.
Охренеть! Этот чувак один заменяет целый завод. Я всё ждал когда он начнёт формовать резиновые манжеты...
The shop and the amount of tooling you have shows you work very hard to make it all work in a one man operation the ultimate toy box
Kurtis your competence and confidence is a thing of beauty. Pleasure to watch a master at work
Your shop always looks so clean, even with all the cutting fluids and chips surely finding a way to try and make things messy. Love these videos.
Hey mate thanks for watching! Yeah some days it gets to be messy, you should see the top of my tool benches 🤣
Now that Vodafone is back online after a 6+ hours NATIONWIDE service down...I can finally get my dose of heavy metal.
Enjoy mate! 😎👍
Love your "out takes"....! The Machining is top notch. Keep up the good work....
The amount of effort and attention to details to the repair done is admirable
What a satisfying resolution to Pt. 1! Thanks for another great one, and have a great weekend, team CEE!
Glad you enjoyed it Geoff thanks for always watching 😎👍
I've binge watched almost all of your video, love your content. Cheers from Canada.
Im a citrus farmer in florida and i think you guys are very professional.
Curtis, every time I watch one of your videos I'm more and more impressed with your abilities and your equipment in the shop. Well done.
Time to go for a beer . I've been welding all day .it's beer time .. another good job . Enjoy your weekend
Good stuff mate enjoy and have a good weekend ahead 😎👍
Love these videos! If I could get a recording of just all the cool shop noises (welding, grinding, the blow torch, all the sounds the lathe and line boring machines make) I could play them as background noise where I work so I feel like I'm actually getting some shit accomplished.
hahahaaa that's great idea. Nothing better than watching and hearing hard work 😂👍
Underrated comment... 🤣🤣🤣
I don't think most people see the beauty in the steel as I do. We as humans, forget the amount of effort went into the part you just made. The metallurgy, the preciseness of handling and forming steel. I truly marvel the variety of tools that surround this craft. I hope your living your dream, the three of you.
Nothing says precision like a good old tape measure.
I know its meant too..but i gotta say it..that thing looks like a bloody bought one... great job Kurtis.. Love the slowmo and close ups of the chips flying Mrs Kurtis.. Have a great weekend CEEA team..regards Patchy🍻🍻🍻
Patchy delivers with the awesome comment once again! Thanks mate, we both really appreciate the great support. Cheers 😎👍
It would be cool if next time you strapped the camera to the honing machine so we can see the inside as it hones.
Will have to give that a go, the oil splashing on the lens might become an issue
Hallo Australia , What à fin job you did. No doubt youra professional mechaniker. Every company would have such à guy. Proficiat François ( Belgium / Europe )
Been following this channel for a little while now. I just love how mesmerizing it is to watch you work on everything Kurtis. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us. :)
Curtis, Now If you and the wife done a short video in your garden after a few (good) beers talking about what you have done that day now that would make a great video. Would be good to see if you just talked fine or just go off on one,lol. Stay safe family.
🤣 after a few drinks who knows what I would blurt out hahaa
Actually, I'm pretty sure that MANY of us have a pretty good idea what you'd blurt out Carl!
I just discovered your channel and I'm hooked for life! Great skills, great knowledge and great job. A job well done.
Hey mate welcome to the channel! Glad you are enjoying the vids. Cheers, Kurtis
love the work you do, just love to see the final peace, got to give a shout out to the mrs for doing a grand job with filming and putting it all together and the slow mo is very very good so thanks to you both love from Wales
Just catching up. Really enjoying watching you work. First time I've seen slow motion video with enough audio filtering so we can actually hear the metal tearing away as the chip is formed without all the noise from the machine. Nice work. Thanks for doing the extra work to bring us along.
I'm waiting for the time in the out takes for when the dog says "fuck, start again". On a side note, another great video.
We know he won't get his lines wrong, he is a natural on screen 🤣🤣🤣
Unlike dad.
Ime also waiting for the inspector to walk in and say fuk
"fuck!........ooh, are we filming? I mean woof"
Just in time for my breakfast in Germany. That's how I like it. Greetings go out.
Greetings mate thanks for watching enjoy your Friday
I received the order today. Thank-you so much for the fast service.
I thought I had watched all the videos but I was wrong. I keep finding one's I have never watched. I like re runs too!
I love the slow motion action. And the hard work both y’all do to bring us this awesome awesome videos
Hey Greg thanks for watching and glad you're enjoying the vids mate. Cheers, Kurtis 😎👍
That Honing Machine reminds me of those Oil Rigs on that Black Gold show.
Haha we know what we could get into if machining ever ends 🤣👍
Completed the mastery of the word F**k! Shop manager needs some of those cookies & Nice work again!!
haha yeah i've had a lot of practice with that word 🤣 Thanks for watching
Amazing Workmanship, Facinating to Watch. I didn't see You test Fit the Piston before the O Rings Were Installed. You are Very Meticulous. Fun to Watch.
Slomo Security officer running is the best intro. started watching this channel for dogo proactiveness. And some F-bombs from the Artist himself and obviously can't be done without a perfect camerawoman.
Hahaa yeah the missus thought that slow mo looked funny she's been taking some more slow mo shots of safety officer for future vids 🤣 thanks for watching
Good job, greetings from Kazakhstan!
Hey mate wow thanks for watching over there mate
Making me homesick. Cheers from Dublin. You're doing your bit to spread the word that craftsmanship is a thing of great value. And also the value of just fixing broken shit, not throwing it out.
What an absolute master Kurtis is of his trade! So wonderfully shown what this craftsman can do. Love this and thanks for upload, keep up the superb work.
These videos really are becoming very professional! i was wondering how long the complete honing process takes? Cheers guys :)
mrs. Carl has gone and done it, Homeless is in slowmo.
🤣🤣 prepare yourself will be more safety officer slow mo in future vids I'm betting
The three things which i can watch everytime are fire, water and to be working prof. I am absolutely amazing. The Dog is coool)
Looks like Safety doggo is qualified to be in the shop - he's got mad skillz, too. Learning more about these beasts that you work on. I wouldn't have guessed the oil returns were inside the case or how it was assembled. Neato.
Привет✋👋 я в восторге от твоей работы 👍
Спасибо, приятель, оцените это!
Happy Safety Doggo is my spirit animal.
Good to see The Security Officer has the Giggler trained to recognise what he's going to do next and give him treats. I am always impressed when heating something up either fits it to where it needs to go or releasees the part. Thanks Kurtis and Giggler
'gotta love the noises the Safety Inspector makes - he's such a happy soul!
that was a "Dad pay attention to ME" growl if I ever heard one :)
Kudos to the camerawoman and her detailed videos. I already praised you at the 1st part :) Thank you for sharing your work with us, it's very interesting to watch. Stay healthy
Cheers mate! We both appreciate this. thanks for watching
Hay Tyson here from USA Oregon state Id first like to say I'm learning from your common since in all the good ways. Thank you for all the amazing videos ok. You're a vary devoted man and same to the Ladie. :)
