Oh welcome back to the Steve Hall up show today I'm going to show you how I built this this is
my own kind of learning experience when I first started welding had to be well over thirty years
ago and this is a special request for buddy mine and we're gonna get into it right now and
I'm gonna tell you right off the bat I got this out of a book guys I don't know if anybody reads
books anymore but these guys recognize this this has to be 35 40 years old and that's what I used
to to do it with and this is it right here and oh yeah there's the guy see there we go so we've
got Wally's place 66 Sol and that's from the vid from December the 14th I was talking to Wally in
the comments there and he's seen this when I was talking about my diesel heater and my electric
heater right here and he said I would mind taking a look at that so I said ok so this is it right
here and here's the plans on two pages I'll take a photograph of this and I'll put them at
the back so if you guys are interested in building something like this well they just go right at her
because you know what when I first started welding I did this all with a stick welder and it turned
out great I've been using it all these years and it's been flawless so let's just take a little
look at it here first but I just thought I'd show you some of the little tools that I've made like
little jigs that I made this one right here you just put like a you can put like your socket on
top you know to press out different things and all it is is a an old ratchet drive that's welded
in there and that's very simple and this one here this is just for making bends and steel and these
all go into this Chuck right here they all go into here I'll show you this right here this little
set screw you can take it out and this one here I got just for bending steel and I made this little
little jig here you know you got to have some kind of a platform so and this here is a special press
this is a Robinson automotive ball joint nut ball joint universal joint there it's right on
there don't get no easier than that does it and I use this all the time in here and it works out
terrific that's very simple and guys you know I'll show you here I got like a little this is just
like an old piece of pipe guys and I just narrowed it down and just tighten up your bottle jack and
guys you can just press this away like there's no tomorrow and of course I'll show you here so you
can get a better example of what's going on is the fulcrum it's so powerful on this that you can pump
away for a long time and the end here will not move that much but it's got a lot of power and
also you can take out the pin and swing this whole head over and use it manually you know like with a
bar and just an inside of here I got a little C I got another pipe in there and you can you can just
use it manually instead of using the bottle jack but for a lot of stuff like universal joints you
know bearings and that kind of stuff yeah you need a lot of power and you're gonna need the bottle
jack and this here is a leave this is a a nine-ton 9 ton jack and I built most of the stuff just from
scrap pieces of hide around but I'll take you off the camera and I'll give you a better view
of what it looks like and yous guys can make this too okay I've taken all the pieces off here so you
can get a better idea and guys this is real simple you know but you're not going to get that sticker
with it either yeah that's a custom sticker and you can see how this is made and guys it's very
simple to do and it's it's square like everything in here is square and it's simple and it's it's
easy to weld up and guys I think anybody with a little bit of skill at all can do one of these
and I just got this spring here from princess Auto and yeah they're easy to find like all these parts
are is defined I just welded on a little eyelet here you know and guys this is just a terrific
unit to make and a nice little thing that you can make during the winter time as a hobby and
it'll last you a lifetime like it has me now you can see here that you have different locations
where you can put your pin in to get a different throw on your fulcrum you just take this out and
guys this is the ideal setup has to be a 50 year old design but you know what sometimes 50 year
old stuff is 50 years good well I hope you like that it's uh it's a nice you know project to do
and I think really guys most people could handle this yeah you're gonna have to have some tools to
cut these pieces off but sometimes you know you go to a lot of these steel places where you buy your
steel and they will pre-cut all this stuff for you just give them a cutoff list and I'll show
in the book here you know the pictures at the end here so if you want you can see exactly how this
is all done and I only went by these instructions so I think everybody else can so I will put a link
down below for Wally's Play 66 for suggesting this bit to me thank you very much Wally and you guys
check out all these place and that's pretty well the case thanks for joining me here today and as
my girlfriend from Pennsylvania says get out there ride a horse ride a cowboy ride something see ya
