Deferred Maintenence And Some Stairs

Added: 2026-05-09

[00:01:50]At some point I should probably explain what's  going on. What it is is these are overdue for tires. I found a set that's that mostly  matches at an auction. Um wasn't a horrible price for what it cost to replace everything.  These historically on this machine have been um calcium filled. So they had tubes in them  and uh filled with calcium chloride I guess for weight. It's a powder that doesn't freeze, add  it with water, water and calcium, and um they've taken nails and they've get holes in them.  So, they're kind of a cross between tubed and tubeless because the rims pretty much have become  tubeless. They're rusted. The water's leaked out.

[00:02:34]They're deteriorated. It's overdue. Uh so, when  it's time for new tires, I need new wheels. So, I found a set of solids for the front. Um well,  I found a set of four at an auction. One of them is still air filled. So, at this point, uh,  for the price it was worth, uh, I'll just put these fronts on because the valve stems will no  longer take air. The wheels are irreparable. Um, probably dangerous. So, there's really no air  pressure in them right now to speak of. So, I'm just going to take them off and put these  foam filled ones on there for now and just keep working it out. Um, I have to work on the ones  from the back. One has two smaller lug holes and the other one was two small lug holes and they  tried to torch them out. So I got to work on them.

[00:04:36]Heat. Heat.

[00:05:42]Come on.

[00:07:20]So, we got the other two right there. They  basically been sitting around long enough for me to get tired of looking at them.  So that's why I put these on the front.

[00:07:29]So I'm going to pull out I'm going to  take these old ones, stack them up, and get them out of the chute here. And let me  go for a walk. I think I got time. Time is it All right, I got I should put those in  there, too. I got two extra lug nuts.

[00:08:15]And then I need to get So, it's 10 per  tire. I need 18 more to do the backs once I sort out those rims. Something's Anyway, I'll explain it when I get to them. That'll  be in another small job. That's it for now.

[00:08:42]All right, I got a little plan here. I needed a plug.  Show you what I got going. Let me get this out of there. I should have used a little oil. All right.  Uh 3/4 plate. I needed this plug out of it. I have another one in there. Um, while I was doing that,  I figured I'd just make a little shackle plate while I'm at it. No sense wasting the material.  Um, I have these. They're about a 13/16 hole. I need to increase it to an inch and an eighth.  Um, to work on that uh the lug nut centered uh assembly style instead of I guess I guess  it would be the the nut centered. Uh, anyway, I got a little hole in there. I'll probably put a  magnet on the back of it. I can stick that up. Uh that bit there is inch and an eighth. The center  cut just happens to be about a couple thousand couple thousands under that. So that's a little  loose, but it'll work. There's a little bit of slop in it. Um so I use a magnet on that. And then  I can set the mag drill and center it on that plug um with the pin, the ejection pin. And then that  will increase the size of these. All right. Here is that plug. This little shelf uh keeps it from  coming through. So I can put it on that magnet.

[00:11:04]So what we can do um to prove this is the  whole center right now is like 14 or 13 and 316 center to center or edge to edge, however  you want to measure it. Same thing. Um, I'm going to drill that one there and then I'll  come across and I'll drill this one here and we can double check it um to make sure we're still in  there because the increase will remain constant.

[00:11:34]And then uh so I'll drill that one out and then  drill another one and we'll see where we're at.

[00:12:22]14 and 316 or 13 and 316. We're good.

[00:13:02]I can't find my counter sink that will fit this. I  have I had one that was maybe 2 in or an inch and 3/4 or something. it' be perfect for cutting that  little seat. Um, and it it had a welding shank, uh, 3/4 round with two flats 90° opposed for  this style. Um, I think it might be in the box with this, but I feel like I also got it out for  another project and it was it needed sharpened or something happened to it. Um, but I think  other than that, it won't be hard to line up.

[00:13:41]a counter sink to cut that. That'll be ready. This  one's air filled. And then this one I dug out of the weeds here from another um score. Um it has a  dent in the rim, but it's not high pressure stuff.

[00:13:56]And I don't think it's tubeless tire, so it won't  make a big difference. But these holes are um one inch. Need them to be inch and an eighth. The one  inch would probably work. Um I have a a tapered one inch bridge reamer that I ran through there  that cleaned them up pretty good. They were a little fouled, maybe a little eggged out. Um,  I may purchase an inch and an eighth bridge reamer just to run through there. Um, I may  just counter sync it so the lug nuts fit and um that way. But for now, what I'm going to  do is to clear the chute in the shop here.

[00:14:33]I'm going to set this on top of that and then  pull the whole stack out, put it on a pallet, and get it out of the way. Um, and that's as far  as I'll go on it today. All right, we're gonna cut a little set of loft stairs this morning.  No big deal. No real reason to film this, but All right, we got uh 116 uh and  a half divided by probably going to be like 16. What would 17 be? That's too small.

[00:15:29]Divided by 16. All right, seven and a  quarter just a little over seven and a quarter. So we take out seven equals  and that's 28 times 15. So times the six the fraction we want. We want 16. So  it's 4 and 1/26 or just a little over a quarter. Tiny bit not quite 5/16. So easy  enough. And then we'll check the run next.

[00:16:03]So 10 inches. Fine. I got to check the treads  that were on there. We poured a floor. They poured a floor in here and lifted everything  up. So I took out the landing or they took out the landing. And we'll just cut a new set.  Make it simpler. No big deal. Um so we had uh um 10 uh 16. So you 16 risers. So it'sund.  So 15 treads. Um so times 10 is 150 in minus 65 and a half that I had to that post. 84 and  a half is where we're going to come out to.

[00:16:43]That puts us there. That's about right. Like  that. I'll check the treads we had to make sure we don't need to go 10 and a half.  I think 10's fine. All right. All right, we got our 10 in run, our seven a little  bit over seven and a quarter rise.

[00:17:00]Connect the dots.

[00:18:15]All right, there's the bottom of that.  That looks good. I just have to place the top and then pull it back down and  trace it. Everything looks pretty good.

[00:19:32]Hey, Hey, hey, hey.

[00:24:50]All right, that's enough for that. That's all  done. I wasn't going to nail the treads on, but I ended up doing it anyway. And  they look good. It is what it is. I think there's another post. Got to go back in  there. But he's going to take care of that.

[00:25:24]Client's going to take care of that. And  I'm going to go to the next job upstairs.
