I love anker stuff! Best banks on the market imho. But even with a massive discount a 1500$ bank is a bit outta my price range haha. I do bring the 30,000ma one camping though always
Those battery banks are pretty awesome. Haven't had much faith in Anker since the Eufy drama but i can appreciate a good battery
@@Doggo_Bork whats eufy?
Put that kit on a colman minibike
@Grimm-Gaming a home security camera setup made by Anker. On release it was supposed to be end to end encrypted yet random people were able to connect to them via VLC with minimal effort. It has been patched but it was nuts
Dammit Will! Tuck those hoodie strings in while using the lathe.
Yes. I know that I’m not the only person who was cringing as I was watching him using the lathe with those strings hanging down. It only takes that one time for it to accidentally get caught up in the lathe to cause an extremely bad injury or his death! I know that Ethan and the other guys have had to tell him to be careful more than once!
ive seen firsthand what happens to dangly clothing and the person wearing them around a lathe its pretty nasty on the low end and mind scarring on the high end
My welding teacher would have cut them off
@@ericd7532 sounds like a good teacher
better yet, dont wear a hoodie with strings anywhere near a workshop
I love that Ethan knew exactly where to send Will to find a short chunk of solid stock buried in the snow! The man has a lot of stuff and knows where it all is!
I feel like he is on the spectrum with add and adhd people. My garage is a mess and looks like a landfill to my family. But I guarantee I cal tell you that the screw for the lawnmower in the back yard that holds on the plastic cover is under the left rear tire of my jaguar and has been there for 6 months now. Or how I have sandpaper that fell behind the work bench a year ago that’s 1000 grit. Or he’ll even where I dropped a 10 mm socket by my back fence and it’s still sitting there after 2 years. We never forget anything. Especially if it’s something we handled last. I cannot tell you where anything is tho after my mom comes by and “cleans” up the house while she visits. Lmao I have lost more stuff to her moving something 6 inches than to my kids that touch everything. Atleast my kids have only 4 hiding spots and I can guarantee you will find anything you lost in those places. Yea it makes no sense to others that are normal. But that’s the beauty of having adhd. Everything looks like a tornado came through but we know where it all is at. (Not saying everything in the house is a mess. Just the zones that I personally claim as only mine.) everything else is clean and looks like a hotel room. 😂
Are you gay?
I swear i have the same situation.soon as mom comes and does her little cleannup its like we’re lost in a familiar place and cant find shit we’re looking for
Gotta love Will sitting 18 inches from the lathe with no PPE on. They don’t call him One Eyed Willy for nothing…
It's the loose hoodie strings hanging around spinny things that get me nervous
safety karen
@@davidanalyst671boomer crybaby
Nobody calls him that
@davidanalyst671 you disagree that he should be more safe around the lathe? At least have safety glasses on and tuck the strings away🤷♂️😄
that hands down was the smoothest transition into a sponsor ever, so smooth i almost didn't realise i was been served an advert until the end
fool
It was so cool I was willing to watch the ad because it's a good use of how I'd actually use a product.
I still didn’t realize that it was a sponsored ad till it was over
Yep
I see i was not alone on this, I guess im not the only fool lol and it seem my reply to @DeckoTD has not been posted lol
Hey machinist Willey! Next time you only have to take off a little bit just run it again without turning any dials. It's called a spring pass. It just takes off the amount that the cutter flexes away from the part. You'll be surprised how often you can go too far without going anywhere!
When you find the video within 2 minutes of the upload, it's like I can smell the burnt whatever they're burning this time from the video
Will hasn't grasp the concept of you go in halves on a lathe. But you guys are hysterical as a group to watch. Great video as usual!
this is the comment i was looking for.
Also, don't take hot measurements especially for a press fit
When going through my machinist class. The math behind it is that when cutting circular stock on a lathe it is actually double the depth of your cut. So cut half of what you want until you get comfortable enough to take the big cuts
Yes because you are decreasing the radius by the amount you move. So it takes that much off of each point all the way around the circumference.
1/2” cut on the radius is a full 1” off the diameter.
longest anker ad of all time
sponsorblock my beloved
As an Aussie, it was refreshing to hear Will ask for a 19mm spanner when the track came off the first time
U guys needa make premium ratchet straps😂
I'm very disappointed that Ethan's beanies were not used in the cushioning of that battery 😎
Right? Lol, I bet that they are still in there on the little red truck build! 🤣🤣🤣
im pretty sure they used them all XD
Try and put 45 degree chamfers on both sides of all the teeth of the tracks to give it a leading edge when sliding sideways, this might help with how much the come off when going round a corner
Will lookin like Freddy Mercury w his mustache 😂
Ha! Truth
100%. But remember, Will might have to google who that is. And then put his phone in his back pocket
Less sketchy than many of Grind Hards builds! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Make an electric crosskart "trike" with a battery pack in the back (over track), but have it on a swing arm, so that it works like a servo, making it so you don't have to tilt/ lean while turning, and able to control it while doing a wheelie! This proof of concept can start a new wave of snow machines, since electric snowmobiles as is sucks hard and is anything but premium.
or just put the motor and tracks on the barbie boat to make it amphibious all weather
Sorry but I'm confused why would u have to lean/tilt in a cross cart to turn? They have 4 wheels? We'll tracks if I'm reading this right lol
@@Todd_Gerhardt Not OP but probably to counterlean during a turn. With long suspension vehicles (without an anti-rollbar) during turns, they have a tendency to lean outwards. this would solve that without using an anti-rollbar (which you want for some reason????).
@@Todd_Gerhardt Let me clear things up.. it's a snowmobile, but picture a crosskart trike, the battery can lean from side to side as to shifts the center of mass, it also offset driver weight up front 2, using the battery weight as a feature, and not a flaw like EVERY electric machine ever. it would be MUCH safer during avalanches, and you'd be able to climb RLY well in it. for those who play in snow, this will save lives.
That 6 minute generator ad must've paid pretty good
7+ minutes actually. And the only thing it cost them was their dignity.
Will is getting really good at “crafting”. It is nice to see how he developes as a builder. He got a really good teacher!
i hope those guys paid you allllll the money for that ad. You did such an amazing job i forgot I was watching an ad.
Remember there machinist Willy if you take a little bit off on a lathe it takes it off x2!! So that little bit is doubled haha
Anker makes some really good bluetooth speakers too. Their whole soundcore series is pretty nice.
NGL GHPC, could throw solar panels on the roof of the shop and have a battery backup system (and I think Anker makes those) which would help the power problems (when they occur)
Anyone who owns a home that can afford solar panels and home battery back up should get that installed ASAP. My power cost has gone up over %20 in under a year. If cost continues to rise, the ROI graph will be a curve, not a straight line
This was the longest Ad I've ever seen in my life.😂😂😂😂
23:10 Was pretty much anyone's throttle and speed dream. I felt every push of the accelerator and every turn of the wheel.
Unexpected but appreciated non Friday upload ❤
If you turn a part down like that and it’s too loose but not a safety issue you can knurl the surface. If it goes inside deep like that part it’s probably be fine. Cheers dudes.
I've known a few machinists in my days, and they all have a patience level far beyond most people 😂 And this is exactly where it comes from, just sitting and watching
Hey GH! I just wanted to thank you guys for making such great content, you all are a HUGE inspiration for me, and my channel. Keep it premium!
I can't wait to see the MonsterCycle drive under its own power
your electrical setup in the shop with that anker bank is so sick. i wonder how long it would last with you guys just doing normal shop things for an episode.
Probably an hour or 3 if using lower voltage items. It's basically a boat anchor
Not as long as even a single generator…. The battery backup is stupid for their application. A shop, in the middle of nowhere, doesn’t need this. A simple generator or even 6 will do the trick, for less money.
Quick tip. If you need to find something in the snow you can use a flamethrower to clear the snow
I see that gives you 6,000-W and an amp rating of 30 amps. If you use the lathe, air compressor, or welder, all separately and not at once, then you should be fine. But you'd benefit from the double setup they have, giving you 12,000-W, or the battery expansions like you said. We thought we were ok here, and didn't need a backup generator. Then the power went out for 31 hours a few weeks ago. The next day we ordered a 22-KW Generac Guardian generator with the automatic transfer panel. It runs off of natural gas or propane. The entire generator with the transfer panel, shipped to the door was about $6500. And then another $700 in parts for the conduit and wire. We wired it ourselves, and it's big enough to run our entire place (including 2 HVAC systems and a boiler) and were able to hook up our neighbor's house also, since they don't have AC, there's not much of an amp draw there. In any power outage though, we just don't run the electric dryer, and likely could go a couple days just hanging laundry.
Surprise midweek upload! Thanks boys!
Finish the chopper build!!!
hes working on it. lolz. not everything on youtube is done in one week and then you get a vid.
Why? Then they can’t milk the videos for a few more months lol. Not that I complaining. But still
I love working with old machines. Had a 1970s good way lathe at the last shop I worked for. Amazing tool. Could take some massive cuts. For example it could take a .650 thow interrupted cut comfortably. Or it could turn some perfect sealing surfaces. Also I agree with never using calipers on fits. Gotta mic it! Or test fit! 🤣 you guys are amazing!
It fits my definition of a proper deathcart: just causes manic cackling the entire time you are ripping on it.
Use a small drill bit to make pilot holes before using the step bit. It will save time and make the step bit last longer. Do NOT blow chips off a part without safety glasses or at least close your eyes first.
What happened to Ethan? He's hardly ever on the channel anymore. Nothing against these guys, but Ethan is what brought me to this channel and we get stuck with these dudes.
he's been hard at work with the chopper! Video about that coming this Friday, stay tuned!
That definitely looks like a blast. once you guys get all the R and D done on those tracks. it should be even more of a blast. and Edwin and Will speak the same language when it comes to this kart.
"When it works, it rips" is basically the motto for everything Will makes, I love it haha
That motor is wayyyy too powerful for the tracks! 😂
its either the motor was too powerful or the tracks were just designed to go much much slower. They probably designed them to go on some kids toy at like 1/10th the RPM
@@davidanalyst671 Agreed. 👍
Who wants to bet that Ethan's neighbors appreciate the E-rippers more than the IC rippers.
Pretty sure his nearest neighbor is a few miles up the road
@@jakezanders6598 pretty sure I've heard Ethan comment regarding his neighbors and the noise in the past.
Lol what neighbors.
@@jakezanders6598I live miles away from a decent road, and it still gets pretty damn loud. So 🤷🏻♂️. But yeah, I’d be surprised that he has neighbors close enough to complain
Love hearing the giggling when your driving it!!
Premium tip: a pitchfork and a metal tined rake work great when you need to find something non-inflatable, that's buried in the snow, when you are too excited to wait for spring.
I can imagine exactly how the GHPC meeting went when you guys decided that you could market yourselves. Someone came up with the concept of a catchphrase and then someone else said “How about PREMIUM”? Everyone agreed, and then you decided to say it CONTINUOUSLY followed by “merch” branding saying the same thing on shirts, hats, cups…I guess I just miss what this channel used to be.
Bud how do you think they can afford to buy stuff and take enough time to build the shit without having a day job…. They had to make it profitable to make this much content this often… they are way less in your face about the merch drops then a lot of other KZheadrs … tldr quit bitching.
My "off road" mobility scooter sucks. Can you make me one that actually has some real power so I can go on trails?
Currently off grid living and I really need to get one of those. That would be really helpful and pretty awesome.
It still blows my mind every time I see you guys doing CAD with a track pad. As a professional CAD user I can't imagine how painful that would be to do.😂
YEAAAH MORE VIDS ABOUT THE GO KART
When you guys post it makes the day just a little better every time, also motivates me to work on my projects!
You guys should integrate both the wheels and the skis together for the ultimate offroad go-kart! The skis just need to be like 1cm higher than the tire so they'll "float" when the ground is solid :D
This comment is for hoping for a new lathe to appear.
You leave that atlas lathe alone lol I’ve got the same one
@@DinosaurEatsRoss It would be cool to see a bunch of remanufacturing/resurfacing and other stuff done to it to get it back to making some fine exact results. But I wouldn't be holding my breath as I haven't stumbled upon such footage in KZhead yet... I think it has a "one man machine" title atm. Meaning only one man knows it's quirks and has mastered it.
the 7 minute sponsor segment was unnecessary
Google KZhead ReVanced thank me later
@@ryancottingham925There are browser plugins for desktop too.
yall incorporated an add into this video and it was done flawlessly. i was interested enough where i was gonna ask a question about the anker charging, but you answered it as i was typing. as always solid entertainment, informative and interest piquing. good ass youtube channel
They are required to clearly state that it's an ad and they didn't so I don't think it was flawless...
here's the record for the fastest tracked vehicle: The world record for the fastest tracked vehicle is held by a modified M113 Armored Personnel Carrier (APC). In July or August of 1979, this tracked vehicle achieved a remarkable speed of 121.9 kilometers per hour (75.7 miles per hour).

You guys are insane… and I love it
a 'kurmudgen' , new unit of measure for everyone . Love it. 😁
Oh yea it is so nice to have an alt power source. We have a 24 k Generac on natural gas so when the power goes out our place is like 1 of 2 in our big neighborhood that has the juice. Its great peace of mind. Love your builds guys big fan here. Tim
I love that adult size ev power-sports devices just sound like Really big RC cars
I just commented almost the same as a RC guy this is just a Blast
Please also Will no baggy sleeves/ hoodie strings near lathe! Love the creations!
100% need to build an RC vehicle with those tracks on all four corners!!! Be about 1/5-1/4 scale and would be amazing. You already have the motors, just need heavy duty 1/4 scale servos to steer. Watch some of Kevin Talbot's Raminator videos and he shows great servos for the best deals that could handle that kind of load.
Thanks for making me chuckle boys!
This kid Willy is great, his slightly wrong word usage; "curmudgeon", "swindle", cracks me up.
Your the best that North Idaho has its awesome to see you guys around town
I'm surprised you can steer that thing with the tracks barely on the ground once it hooks up! 😁
Be careful! I think you should first plug the orange plug and then the blue connector to the wall. The blue has insulated connectors. If the wall is live (happen to have forgot one fuse on), the orange plug could have dedly live prongs exposed. Cool things you are making
Yess this is what i was waiting for! Didn’t know you guys would actually do it! Amazingly done 🤩
I petition that you guys get a gas tank on the property for all the vehicles that you guys have been building recently! Love the content and keep up the great work guys 💪🏼
I would die to have the machine keep it up he can show you so much he is so good when it comes to Mechanics and engineering. You all are great at this that’s why I watch this channel!
you should make the bottom smooth like a sled and make the tracks retractable so you can use it like a downhill sled with tracks that can take you back up the hill.
Best builds ive ever seen and ive seen alot. Great jobs guys
I just had a thought. One go-cart, 4wd, suspension and tracks. As long as it's not too fast it could make a little racing tracked vehicle. 😁
You guys have got to make a mini Ripsaw tank.....that would be epic....
Super fun! But maybe it's ready to collect dust until next winter snow. That'll give you time to think up solutions to some of the issues.
I love that throughout every video of the go cart the stance gets wider
You should put two tracks on either rear tire and put a outer guide to keep both tracks on actually inner guide and outer guide welded on the outside of either side. And put wheels on the front they will still turn in the snow similar to skis. And I've seen at the drag strips where they put solid rubber on the tracks instead of grooved
Y'all's content has been killing it lately! The production quality is better than any KZhead channel I can think of. Music is 10, timing and tempo is a 10, freaking everything is off the rails premium! 👁️💯🔥👍🔔
Well when you get paid to run a 7+ minute ad in the middle of your content, you have money to spare for production value
I can't believe you guys are at 2.3 million subscribers. Love the videos
I used two 12 inch speed squares (carpenter tool) to attach two ski tips about a foot long to my downhill mt bike to ride the snow. The hypotenuse faces forward and the tail end of ski is exactly where the wheel is designed to hit the ground. If the back of the ski extends back beyond the line drawn through your head tube to the ground it ruins what the geometry of the vehicle was designed for. I lucked into this knowledge, but it's for real. On my Wheelski (Patent search confirms my design is fit for utility patent in 1998 for unique pivot. Acts like knees of the skier) I could shred the slopes You guys need to hear my testimony. LOL Seriously though, I was riding ski slopes on my DH bike at Woodbury Connecticut on weekdays and Plattekill in Roxbury New York on the weekends. I could ride with no hands it was so stable and I could make turns so sharp I could touch the bars to the snow, but Plattekill is super steep at like 40 degrees so maybe that accounts for the crazy turning anyway, love your projects and love watching fun
I love watching Ethan help will learn brings a different dynamic to the channel! Like a mentor! You all make is great to watch! The editing on this would be so hard crazy good!
Love the new shop you guys have. Big step up from the other one. Keep up the great builds!
Noticed all the Everlast equiptment. I love my Everlast Tig machine and for the price I can not find anything better.
Having a mouse for CAD is honestly life changing. I’m sure you all have mastered the two finger touch though.😉
i think that was the perfect amount of snow, any deeper and you guys would been getting stuck alot.
Came to skip ahead while at work Later ill be back for long form! THANKS FOR THE DROP!
Anker has always been a go to brand for me. And thats just crazy how much that thing can run. Imagine charging that from Solar as an off grind machine.
honestly this makes me wanna see something quick with full tracks. some weird ripper tank or whatever
Funny thing about lathes. They tend to take off twice the distance the cross slide moved.
i love this channel so much that i'm willing to watch their ads
I kind of like the videos where Steve and Will do stuff together and get to have fun togethe 👍
Damn that RC is huge totally Hobby Grade🔥🤣
on a freshly groomed snowmobile trail that thing would take your fun to a new level
What if you put some kind of shocked like coilover shock on the aluminum plating underneath on the very back of the cart that would give you a little cushion plus it would help pack any snow and give it a ramp😮
That's high wattage premium swindle if I ever saw it! Lol love it!
Dudes!! This looks SO MUCH FUN!! Just re-watched some of the Colonel senders vids and WE NEED MORE POWER WHEELS!!!!
