hello I'm Scott Brown with dream with other home energies Oh remember this this is the hub spindle
and bearing set up plus the redneck grease cap of course lay this down on its side we
have to get into some metal work before we can assemble everything that we've done so far see
here I've traced out the shape I got off this thing was looking for some quarter inch flat
bar I didn't want to use some bed iron because what's with the heads 3/8 inch it's a little bit
thick I've already ground one of these and this fits pretty well right there it's got
to go right up against the square of the back of this usually you can sit there and you can
put all three of these and 120 degrees from each other so you got a perfect y or star these don't
touch for the diameter that I have to weld it to I could weld a couple pieces I could have welded
a couple pieces from here to the next piece and all the way around left the whole but I've got
a lip here - well - anyway I'll just go ahead and line them up got my protractor set up over here at
120 degrees anyway for the time being I guess just a little bit of grinding and setting all
this up that'll take care of this part of the metalwork then we'll get to welding one other
thing right here you don't want to use vice which this one probably wouldn't hold it right I've got
couple vices but I don't want to mount the big one up there you can't take these vise c-clamps
of the use for welding and metal stud framing and other things and clamp it to the edge of
your desk that way you can grind right there and get some pressure and grind real nice when I get
this shape this ought to be real nice and easy to weld okay well there's number two see that
fits real nice anyway I might show you the next one being ground ok here's the third one I don't
recommend you do it this way but I'm trying to save a little time first of all I cut into it
and then we switch to the grinder and we should finish it off pretty quick
all righty see how that matches up pretty close I think I need to knock the sides a little bit
almost perfect here we square on the tips we'll take this side
gun
that'll help is weld a lot easier nice clean surface got to do it to
the other ones too and you've got a nice clean metal that helps it well real good
I got to do the same thing on the other piece all right now we got to grind off
a little this and get this all set up so it'll weld nice and easy do these edges
making the high spots off the old well but cleaning all this
metal helps you to weld find a weld over paint
we make a pretty decent welders Oh
hopefully if your first time well that you really
want to get this off and you just get what they call puller world
there we are next thing is to grind down into these a little bit and make a little
valley where you can sink your weld into I'm going to have to do this on both sides because
this weld here is beveled out a little bit got a lot of wind out here tonight
now flip it over and do the same thing on the other side all right it's flipped over
that's pretty good I'll be the other two off-camera see I welded down the side and I welded
over here these are not the prettiest well uh as a matter of fact they're a lot better than the
welds I was doing last night when I was trying to finish this up there is a box of welding rods the
right size for this welder it's only a 70 amp last night last night I was using one about this thick
this is eighth inch this is three thirty-seconds much better for this world er the other thing
remember I said I wanted to use quarter inch well this 3/8 inch sure does absorb a lot of
the heat so I kind of had to weld slow let this thing absorb some heat then I could actually get
some more weld into it well anyway I've got a weld around here this is not going to be the structural
support but it's only going to be holding the stator in place and I've got welds all the way
out to here all out over here and across on the bottom I think I can get the mirror to show that
yeah well it doesn't show it very well but there we are now I can get a picture of it there's
a weld on the bottom of that one I haven't welded this one over here on the bottom you
can see it's and get the light to move the same time there we go I haven't welded on there I'm
fixing a weld under that but anyway I need to show you how to get your angles this one here
you can see is square it's 90 degrees coming out from this flat surface well we have a protractor
here I hope it focuses good enough where I can see I'll move it a little bit there we are it
shows 120 degrees and that means when I put this right against the edge here and get out them all
in light there we are this comes out there's 120 degrees or 60 degrees from this 90 and I've got
that set end good what I needed what I did to do this I'm sorry I didn't do this on camera
with you I went and clamped it with this like this and then tapped it with a hammer until I
got it adjusted I tapped the bottom over and then I tapped the end and tapped everything
till I got it and then hammered it in on the end several times until I got it to line up and then
I started my welds I'm about ready to weld the other side and then I'm going to put the third
one on I'm going up to boomers he's got the bigger welder something that I can weld with a lot easier
and we'll get to the rest of these welds up oh what's my welder look like well there's my fan
and there's the welder fans bigger than the welder I think many good thanks to you and yours okay I
wanted to show you turn this to exactly 120 degrees you wouldn't be fair for me to set
up one more without you showing Oh see here with this touching here I got a gap over here so I'm
going to tap this with a hammer bottom over cap it up just to show you what I was talking about
a little closer okay good that bottom over tap top over tap it back up in
that right there pretty much exact I think I need to tap it out just a touch how hard you
hit it I guess and that right there it's perfect I'm going to go to weld and I'm not going to weld
on camera it's the only good camera I got that I don't have to do what I did at the beginning
of this video and videotape it off the screen so I can edit it anyway I thank you very much
for watching I'm Scott Brown with green wind and other home energies I'll show you one more shot
of everything welded up when I'm done and then I got a packet see I welded all the way from
here over to here back down around the edge the same thing over here on this one and then quite
get under all from here to here to this edge but I'm not really worried about that these are all
Scout give you the test on it can't knock the welds off a good solid don't be afraid to hit
it with a hammer don't be afraid to hit it let me don't be afraid to smack it I'd rather find
out now find out later on good solid welds gonna look all that pretty paint wonderful
yeah well you got to hit them anyway to get the slide up they start to shine you get that slag
that's actually the the flux that's on the outside of the rods all right there we go
we got 120 degrees 120 degrees 120 degrees for a total 360 degrees it's all solid and welded
and we're ready to put the stator up against her and find out exactly where we're going to drill
our holes the excess I'll probably cut off and use for some stock for setting the tail fit off
the right angle I believe I'm going to put that at about 22 and 1/2 degrees around there this

Scott Brown with green wind and other home energies many good things to you and yours
you
Oh
you
