Amazing project and solution. So interesting.

Maybe the sand and grease were picked up in the Western Desert Campaign ?

Very nice work sir. Yeah experience shows. You make it looks easy.

I almost always learn something from you Max thanks!

Nice detective work there. Looks like that is some welcomed rain seeing you don't get very much of it. We are dry as a bone here in our summer.

Good job max handy one for you. Nice range of pitches on that lathe

9:43 wouldn't taking your measurements at the collar on the other end be most accurate?

Well done Max as you say, very laborious I probably spent a couple of days trying to get my lathe the best I could.l haven’t rechecked it in quite a while better go do it. Keep the great videos coming we love ‘em

Knowing the first procedure can make a big difference in the outcome. No need for steady rest. Shims very useful need stainless for parting tool myself. Cobalt always a machinist friend. Having those large machines keeps you at the cutting edge.

Cheers - great insight into these repairs. Great footage as always!

Thank you Max!

Measuring that pipe end is where a snap gage is great. As long as it has the range anyway.

i do love a good square=acme!

👍

Cracking vid

Thanks Max, that certainly is a odd thread! fun.

Nice job. .

Thanks for the show Max 🍻

Outstanding process of repair Max, looking forward to Part 2. No shortcuts!

I may be wrong but the inside of that tube looked pretty rusty.

That Bird Scarer keeps on giving Max, nicely done ✔️. As a skinny apprentice, working a Holbrook lathe, there was a strap around the tailstock to hook over the carriage to tow it, obviously simple to push it. I could not physically move it. Thanks for sharing.

Well, there are a lot of unique parts in that old "tractor". Some very nice challenges.

The square thread and pitch on those 'tractor parts' reminded me of the threads on old school shoring jacks that were used in trenches decades ago. Looking forward to Pt 2 :)

good job friend max

Excellent videos Max and great explanation of working with older well used machines. I rescued an old Richmond No1 mill from the scrap over 30 yrs ago, it’s worn to buggery but it’s quite amazing how it can still deliver really accurate work if you just spend a little time and effort with it. No DRO though, just dials. Thanks again, really enjoy your content.

nice repair max! If one of those tubes had been slightly bent, would have been a serious problem I think? I wonder how you solved that? cheers ben

Stop hogging the Rain too Driest year on Record in SW Victoria ☔

👍

Hi Max, nice job. The operators would have been plagued with mud, sand and grit getting between the threads and having to hastily set it up. Our riggers used to throw our square thread scaffold leveling screws into a 44 gal drum of oil ready for use.

Well done Max. Jobs like this take a lot of time to do for sure . Cheers

You Seem to be BANGING out these old Tractor Repairs fast . !!

Great video max and always good info..

i heard a train horn in your video, how ironic MAXY .

Excellent video,keep em coming mate!

That was brilliant to watch Max. Something different, unusual. Nice one.....Tony

was the 'Tractor" made at Chamberlains or is it a foreign import?

Max, love the show, enjoy watching, some great content, thx! Umm... could you put your mike a bit further from your nose, the whistling is somewhat distracting.

Max, this video was great, but it brought back memories of one of our German plastic pipe welding machines that had a messed up square thread shaft, i worked on this shaft for 2 days doing what you did and got the machine running, 2 months later the machine was returned to our factory in Germany, and they replaced the shaft with a ball screw. my German colleague sent me the old shaft for a birthday present and i still have it, square threads suck, Thanks as always for the video.

Last week you treated us with a coat on in the shop, this week a shot of rain which we haven’t seen in quite a while. Add to it a great video and it’s made for a great evening in Texas. Thanks Max.

Learned something new about Sq. threads. Thanks!

> nice going there max. from the armchair comment dept. - slather with anti seize and then marinate with a couple refrigerated nz steinlagers.

Skillful on repairing❤

That was great Max!

There were other chances to notice, even on the last video when you took the specs to level the lathe, or any of the other videos that I now recall where you wrote; you are a southpaw. I share said orientation as well. Thanks for sharing and showing, Max.

Interesting project. Is it possible that the tube has a sleight bend in it?

Community gun parts again Max? Long pitch thread cutting to the max (pun intended) at 80mm. cheers, Butch

Max - That was slick . I was afraid of the Press Fit Bushing . --- Jim

Great video. Thanks

See you in the next video for sure! Thanks for sharing 👍

Yep another great video, & full of learning opportunities. I wouldn’t complain if they were longer in length. 👍 Nice start to a Saturday morning watching a SVMS video early & in peace. It has been unusually cold & wet here in Perth this August that’s for sure, colder than a mutha in laws kiss. Dunno about you but my feet feel the cold on the concrete floor of the shed in this weather, and give me gypper. Grow walnut trees on that 9 acres. 😉👍
