    He's used an angle grinder before, don't know if it's corded or battery powered. If battery maybe he uses solar to charge it up.

    And that's why I left Endicott in 1962.

    Fixing hole in side of block

    I've done a lot of gas welding and brazing and from what I see the flame he's using the mixture is way off. Can remember what adjusting is needed, but that flame is way to long, that's why it's taking him so long to heat the metal up. At least I know what knobs to turn to get the small blue...

    I think he's got power, think he's been using an angle grinder before, plus charging his phone and who knows what else.

    OK, while working his "magic" I finally say where he dipped the rod in flux and even used the word flux. Atta boy Joe.

    Maybe my vision is bad, but I don't think the rod his brazing with isn't even coated. RTV to lock bolts...........heck yeah.

    Nothing like RTV to take the place of "O" rings.

    That's a real nice plow setup you have there.

    Joe's hole in the block

    I guess he got tired of all the negativity and quit posting. I was really looking forward to seeing what the finished product looks like. Hope he hasn't given up. Also he doesn't have a "Youtube channel", he just uses it to be able to post his videos. Come on back.

    Can you explain how you get a new section to come up, and then get it mounted on the previous section?

    You can stop the exhaust leak by putting a small amount of red RTV on both sides of the gasket. That's what I did years ago and still no leaks. Also I might be wrong, but I think the nut you took off is where you adjust the "slop" in the steering box.

    Damn, got owls and hawks in the woods behind me. Also got lots of feral cats. Wonder why they don't keep the cat population in check. Wonder if they are on some sort of welfare and don't need to hunt.

    A lot of people use an old tire on a chain.

    Isn't that like saying if you take a rope, cut off one end, put it on the the other end the rope will be longer?

    Common sense says who ever taught you that was wrong.........think about it. Really think the threads hanging out and don't have any contact with a "female" thread have anything to do with stretching?
