So it looks like he is click bait paid by by the sites to get views and revenue from a site up?It's fine, you should see his solar wiring, and the stuff he tries to run off it.
Actually, you might want to check out how he's able to write decent English and this thread is pretty much a con-job of OTT members, it's not like he hasn't pulled the schame schtuff (with better English) other places:
View attachment 148852bobcat t190 shutting down from low oil pressure
Bobcat T190 keeps shutting down due to low oil pressure Gauge also reading low oil pressure Could it be a sensor or is the oil pump bad? Gauges picture: top left is oil pressure, bottom left is hydraulic system temperature, correct? warning picture: this warning comes on, then machine shuts...www.skidsteerforum.com
I just ran it for about 30-45 minutes
When it started cold, there was some oil pressure reading on the gauge (3 or 4 bars)
Then, after warming up, oil thinned, and gauge went down and the machine shut down
My theory: there are leaks all over the engine, causing the oil to lose pressure
What is your theory?

At this moment, the 3 big things I am trying to figure out (feel free to critique/give advice):
1. I want to build a metal frame around the exposed wheel well. My plan: Build a metal structure out of square tubing (1/2'' size), then use either metal or aluminum sheeting and fasten it to the metal structure, then spray rustproofing above the tires onto the new metal to seal it up from the weather
2. Locate the proper aluminum that will be used to cover the burned aluminum to seal the body of the airstream
The right way to go with this one is maybe to go with whole other airstream that is donor unit, like someone mentioned
The cost of aluminum nowadays, it might be cheaper just to get a whole other airstream
3. Windows: The cost of one airstream window is more than I paid for the entire airstream
My plan: Get similar sized windows from facebook marketplace/craigslist and fit them into the holes
Yes I am listening, no more hard hammering on small areas, it is pretty much good enough at this point, If I do more hammering, it'll be on 2x4 or 2x6 to spread the pressure
Decided to pressurize gasoline instead of lacquer thinner to save costs
Hit it with the gasoline, wipe it clean
Hit it with the stripping paste, let it sit for 3 minutes max
While it is still wet, hit it with the 3M 7 inch stripping disc

Not good idea to hammer on aluminum
One slight tap, and the aluminum falls apart, stopped immediately
Tried to find a nut that would fit that crevice, no luck
I do not want to damage that part, its mostly good except for one little seal
Better to maybe order a kit that has a bunch of those "bearing nut wrenches"
Or maybe order the exact one
Or another idea: that that part with me to the parts store until I find a nut/part that will fit in there
From that image, I am hammering the gear side, not the spline side
Maybe once I start hammering on it, I'll figure it out
Had a tough time finding anything other than HEx ....
until I relized that most water fittings are octo....
So a hose repair from your local ace might be solution...
And here I was feeling sorry for him. That trailer looks like he tried learning to weld aluminum with a torch on it. Probably has a mansion on the other side of the fence

Interesting find here.It's fine, you should see his solar wiring, and the stuff he tries to run off it.

Wow! At first I thought I should give WHh credit for competing with Joe for photos in a thread...but I am a bit confused now...more than a bit actually!It's fine, you should see his solar wiring, and the stuff he tries to run off it.

Head is spinning so much I better stop now and lean back and relax...LOL...but true...LOL
Interesting video. I watched it all but near the end when he was welding on the 2 v shaped pieces I noticed he was using that needle scaler to remove slag like you would normally see on stick welding.
Any idea what mig process that was that has slag?

Same as talking on your cell
instead of giving attention to putting things where they belong before zipping your pants. 
, you'll not do it again.

This is like reading a comic book. Don't have expectations too high, just be entertained at best!
‘I totally forgot about that
This thing has wondered all over the place…to the point of obfuscating the original idea of JB Welding an engine block. Gotta love it.
I think this is because the glued block is sitting somewhere in the yard and he used a different block for the "robot". But after 1272 posts it could well be that I lost track and that I am wrong.
If I am right though I wonder how many more posts it will take until the JB weld block finds any action and we finally find out if this is a viable option for closing a hole in an engine block.
p.s.: just checked, the thread started May 20th 2024, less than a year ago, so there is still hope that I will see the result during my remaining life time.
