 All right, I need to sharpen the blades on this thing like for real I kind of I've kind of done it a little bit like just with a Diamond file on here, but These things are in really rough shape I'm gonna have to take them off And actually sharpen them especially I know this one look at this. Oh, I love that showing up on the camera, but There's a couple parts that are Pretty damaged other than that though super happy with this machine things been amazing and that up that pulley I made working great So it's totally worth getting these Things off and of course My wrench won't fit in there. I did make kind of a half effort a while ago trying to get these things off And they were super stacked A few years ago. I found this piece of stainless steel on the road and I just took an angle grinder to it hopefully Made a wrench that will fit Which way does this turn? Nice All right, oh No All right, I took out a chunk so I can get it in here funny. It's starting to look more like a normal wrench All right this one though This one even looks like it was damaged. I've not been able to budge it. This is bending my wrench Do I have to take one of my wrenches and like file it down so it'll fit in here? Really want to do that Plus I don't know where my half-inch fricking real wrenches not my real one. This is real, but my Where is it? Where's my half-inch wrench? You don't know. Are you sure? Man, I have to get this off. I can't leave one. I can't get the whole thing doesn't come out if one of these is tight All right, I'm probably gonna end up angle grinding this anyway, so I might as well just jump straight All right, I got one out. This is not the one with the stuck nut or whatever it is There's three of those the first one I tried to get it pretty stuck Anyway Wanted to get this out so I could take a look at it to see What would be the ramifications of me? Oh, these are just bolts All right So I should be able to angle grind one Right through just so I can get this out Place it with another bolt It looks like someone already replaced this Some really crappy bolts These cannot be the original bolts for this someone totally must replace this They'll cut off uneven and stuff. Look at this. Look at that crap All right, when I cut this bolt out, I don't want it to get really hot so I got a sprayer here So I can keep it wet and I'm not gonna use my angle grinder because it I think it's just too fast It's gonna heat it up too much The drill is a little harder to keep steady, but I think it'll be alright. This is just a bolt and a nut couple You know strategically place washers Hold one of these wheels on here All right, it took a couple minutes, but the other chunk of that just flew off somewhere That should be all loose now and to get the other blade out I had to go up under here and Tap the bottom edge of the blade Starting to move. Oh, it's starting to move a little easier than the first one. That's nice Yeah, they're just kind of stuck in there with like years of gunk Yeah, I want to take these screws out Wow, okay, I really need to clean up my desk now Yeah, all right, you know how good enough How do you know if a dinosaur what if the dinosaur is doing what? All right, those are looking significantly better I figure how to sharpen them And that edge is so messed up. Oh Wow I mean you have to like re-grind it somehow How is the edge really messed up? Well, it's curved like that for one practice been sharpened a bunch of times that way It doesn't work right Because then the the sharp edge isn't hitting the wood first like this This edge here is hitting That's why I'm getting some not stellar results All right, so we're gonna figure out a way to Regrind this edge. I just pulled that bolt out of there So what did a terrible job of kind of I'm gonna have to re-cut all these I checked and it's The thread size in here is not the common thread size of bolts that I have but I did find two That match so we'll be able to replace the two that I cut You know, I just have to cut them to length All right. Well, you get all those out. I will go see about those blades Trying to think of what I mean my bench Grinder wheels I would not trust on this You know, maybe I can mount a brand new one of these on my bench grinder. It's pretty good I mean I could keep going on these because like a Chunk out of there But I have to take like a millimeter off to get that out There are no matching chunks out on the other ones. So I Yeah, I don't need perfection. I just need pretty good. That's pretty good my jig here There's a washer that I bent Right angle Oh Yeah, and then to do this I Just clamped it down To where these were barely touching the wheel and then you know do a few passes and then Loosen that tap it in just a fraction of a millimeter and then go again It seemed to work pretty well. I was I was thinking my Grinder wheels here. We're not going to be smooth enough, but Tested and we seem to All right, my planar sharpening washer. I'm not gonna remember this So I'm putting it in video putting in this hidden this thing of stainless screws right there. Okay, right there Now on the back side. I want to make sure I take off any bits Well, I'm sure this is not the recommended way to do this next part This has a flat enough edge here that I can actually Rest this on and get the angle Careful Dad took me like half an hour to get this thing apart but went back together. I mean like that. It was nothing So nice. Now. I just eyeballed the height of these You know kind of looking in here Like they're all sticking up about a millimeter and a half I Can eyeball that pretty well, but you know, I might have to readjust it at some point. Anyway, I Couldn't wait and I already turned it on Here So good like All right, let me just show you for a second and I'm gonna take two millimeters off this before I was only taking one millimeter off off a board at a time And sometimes with really wide boards I'd only take like half maybe two-thirds of a millimeter off at a time But I just did like two millimeters off this and it's not even slowing down. It's just like oh Okay, hold on. I'm not gonna claim the surface. This is perfect, but man, it is pretty nice Oh, it's a really good huge difference from before and I'm cutting off twice as much so I can go and go through these boards twice as fast now Oh, that's that's oh Like you know, I came up here thinking Let me see if I can sharpen those things and it turned into like a half a day of renovations and Restorations and crap totally worth it though. This is gonna save so much time Oh, this crack in here is because I left it out in the sun and it dried too fast But uh, yeah, the surface man, it's great This is termite damage old termite damage termites are gone now. We can just fill it in with wood filler I actually wasn't even gonna use this board. It's what which is why I left it out in the sun But now I think I will use it. Oh, I'm so happy about this. Oh, this is so good You know every once in a while you do something and it just it just turns out spectacularly. Oh And it's something super useful. Oh, so good so good
