 think I did a flea market find I bought it at years ago ish and this thing has always done me well and I noticed here lately I had a knock in someone has tried to shim that and that is crap there I don't know what they've done there so the first thing we're going to do is we're going to take this wheel off of here the flywheel and hopefully it didn't ruin the shaft wheels no good I'll have to try to find something the equivalent to that because this is good old air compressor I've got it run into this big old tank here that's the wilder but I've got it run into this to run my power tools now her dad said I can have his he's got a great big one that's bigger than this I don't even know him I'm not sure if it's 220 or not but but until I can get that out here and I see the keyways all until I can get it out here you know what am I going to use left so I may pull the pump off of off of this one this one I'm going to make a little wood burning stove out of I got to make sure the pumps are running the right direction and I may just pull this pump off and put it on here so let me grab a wrench let's pull this pull that big wheel off there and see if the shaft is okay now what I've done before in them shafts is I have welded them and then kind of like mill them off by hand mill them you know with a file so let's uh let's get that off there and see what we can do with it I think this it's a craftsman I'm not sure what year it is maybe we'll check and see there's some numbers on the back I'm not sure tell what year it is I'm guessing probably 50s 60s if anyone has one that's similar and knows the year please comment below let me know so we got an idea I gave 40 bucks for this guy 150 I said look dude I ain't gonna give you 54 there's nowhere to plug it in he says I guarantee it works you like it as well you know they don't tell me anything see that keyway there I said I give you 40 bucks for it to take a chance finally he said oh all right because I did the walk away because he was like well I don't know I said well that's all right you know sorry to waste your time I started walking away me and monkey and he was like oh wait a minute okay I'll take 44 I guess I said look I don't want to break you you know well there's assholes kind of like that but if he could have plugged it in right there and showed me it ran I would have gave him 50 but I had no idea okay so see this is all walled out looks like they've tried to make a spacer in there and it's got a crack there but it looks to me like the shaft okay we got lucky the shafts good so I see this is cast iron I could I couldn't maybe find another one of these maybe online at the scrap yard or something I don't know looks like I see seal maybe leaking a little bit but you can get them seals but I still want to keep it because it's so cool so what we're going to do though is I think we'll go ahead and take the pump off of here and take one on take the pump off the other one I got to make sure it's going to turn the right way and then we'll put pump on here okay this has got nuts on the bottom and screws I don't know how I'm going to get my hand up in there to hold these to keep these from turning so first let's get this unhooked up here and make sure that tee will screw into the other end here we'll go from there this okay these have no nuts on the bottom so these should be okay this thing is very quiet the motors quiet I may put the motor on it too what is it's half horsepower I'm not sure what this one is I thought it was a half horsepower it's got this information down here on it right there so let me see okay let me go ahead and get this take shut get this taken off for you and we'll go from there okay guys so what it says on the back I don't know if you caught it when I pinned you back there but it's a craftsman Sears and Roebuck from the Sears and Roebuck Company now a lot of you guys probably know but some of you may not that they used to have a catalog you could order this stuff through and get it sent right to your room for the Sears and Roebuck Company they you could even get rowboats you know small boats stuff like that handles there was all different kinds of stuff you could get through Sears and Roebuck now that's why I'm thinking this may be from the 50s I've already got these loosened up I've got the four screws down on the bottom loosen okay so I got this loosened up these bottom ones out let me get you backed up a little bit I kind of got you ways away and these being a straight you know standard head screws pain to get the loose I couldn't find well I found I thought I had a great big handle great big longhandled screwdriver that was straight but it turned out it be able to Phillips but yeah these uh these were paint so apparently they've got weld nuts on the bottom which is good it's just just what it says it's a nut welded on the bottom which sometimes are cool in this situation that's pretty much what you got to do but if you ever strip them out it sucks or sometimes like if you go to loosen one it's in there real tight sometimes the welds will break and then you got that nut on the bottom spinning around and you can't get back up in here to hold it so you got to try to find some way to get underneath there to cut it and stop some nouns but the good thing is the shaft's not hurt on this thing okay now I took one of these I made a steam engine out of one and I also made a gasoline running engine out of one of these before it didn't run great but I did it okay so let's go set this to the side we'll go out here one's the same way you just take the take the line off of it and the force and we're gonna set it on here first I gotta make sure it's spinning the right way and then and we'll go from there hang tight okay we have a dilemma if you look down in here one bolt other three will not this base plate off there's only three welds on each side I really don't want to do that to this thing and mount the other one on here if I have to I will but one of the reasons is I still haven't got any wire for the welder and I don't have his his arc welder out here stick welder so what I can do for now but see also this is not gonna line up without pulling say this is set back in I could probably take this this out a little bit or even spend this pulley around I think I can make it line up so what I'm gonna do is I don't like to do this kind of stuff but I'm gonna put one bolt in there and I'm gonna drill I can't drill this one out because then I would be drilling down in to my other threads I don't want to do that but I need an air compressor so this one I can drill out and this one I can drill out and I can put nuts on there maybe oh I don't know say it's still kind of close to that that weld nut that's on the bottom of there I'm not sure how I'm going to remedy this and of course this is going to be way to see the other ones real tall this one's real short I would like to get another another wheel for that that would be nice and keep this original but I mean if worse came to worse I could cut that off of there and just use the base plate off the other one tack what is on here I mean I could always put it back together but it's not really worth it for you know 50 $60 machine I just thought it was cool it's not like I said it's not like it's worth a thousand dollars because it's an antique it is old but it's cool but I kind of like to leave stuff the way it is so I don't know looks like this shaft on here is a bigger shaft than this but I may go ahead and pull this pulley off and see if it'll fit on there but from the looks of it I do not think it will I doubt it this looks like a smaller shaft here alright let me do some thinking let's see where we can go from here I know there's no way I can fix this if I had some machining tools like a lathe I could fix that but I'm not even gonna not even gonna try to bushing that up because like I said I don't want to ruin that shaft on that other one because the pump's still fine let me see what I can come up with all right this is what I have come up with coming out of the pump it's gonna go straight into here I know it's ugly but it's just temporary right I mean I could decide I may do that I don't know we'll see and put the gauge right on top not sure about that yet now we're gonna for that screw down into here like so I gotta take that this off and I'll screw this on get it nice and tight then we need to run this down here to this so I'll have to put an extension cord on the onto that and a big deal I know what you're saying wow you gonna block that off gonna block that off no I'm not because that tank's not even gonna be used okay I'm not gonna use a tank because I think this is gonna be big enough for what I need to do if not then I'll hook this tank back up but I you know kind of want to keep because I this is good for a hundred pound hundred psi the other one I had it jacked up to 140 so I don't know if this one will go that that much or not and the reason why I want to keep this switch hooked up it's for the shutoff is what if I plug it in to let air build up and I forget about it okay it's just gonna keep running till it burns the motor up probably what would happen it will never blow this tank but it probably just keep running till until the motor blew up till the motor seized up on it or burn up or whatever so this is what we're gonna do next I want to put some some of this tape on there so that's what we're gonna do we're gonna get this put on then we'll hook up the I'm not gonna bore you with it because all it does is screw in till it's tight same way with this and that's where our air hose is going to screw in which will hang up here so so that's yeah that's I'm gonna bore you with that I'm just gonna put some tape right now I want to screw this unit into here and I'm gonna screw this this regulator back onto here which regulator came off the old one and this and this is cool because it's I can shut the air off right here up my hose up my hose blows which happens just flip that over this regulator here will regulate how much air I'm putting through the hose to screw it in because I use this mostly for for like lug nuts and stuff like that then you unscrew it out if you know if you want to like you use an air gun or something you know spray gun for like painting stuff like that this has got a pop-off valve on it which I like which does work because I have tested that and it does pop off like it's supposed to after it gets to a certain psi so yeah let me go ahead and do that and then I'll be back with you hang tight guys okay guys this is what we've got going on here got this coming out of the pump feeder line it's going straight into this I couldn't put it on the side because it was where the wrong size fittings now I got my gauge it's going to tell me how much is in the tank we've got my gauge here it's going to tell me how much I'm pushing through the line this is where we'll adjust this at right up here got a pop-off valve in the back down under there there is an extra pop-off valve there I've got the cover for this I'm going to leave the cover off because I may have to adjust that nut now that that determines like how much air pressure when it comes up you adjust that like if you want it shut off at 80 you adjust this nut here and when this gets up to 80 pounds in the tank it flips the switch here okay see the switch there it'll kick it on and when it builds up pressure you know this is spring-loaded and that'll kick it off okay so let me get you set up here and we'll I'm gonna go over here and plug it in and let's see like I said we'll check our pop-off valve here we want to check check our air pressures let's let it build up some pressure oh I also took the off the bottom of that green tank and I put it on here so we can drain water if we have to I like to do that every so often so alright guys let's let it run a while see what happens I wanted to show you this see this valve here this is what I like about this slider valve here because right now it's off as you can see nothing's coming out of the pop-off let's see if I can get it get up to around a hundred pounds I think that'll be plenty but let's let it run a minute original hood off of that thing and I mean original as in it's probably been on there maybe not since it was new but probably 20 30 years I imagine okay let me get that fixed I wouldn't trust this and I don't think it's a hundred pounds that is again alright guys this is what I came up with but I still don't think it's gonna work because I think what's doing it that air coming out there gets really hot that's hot I can't I can't touch it I think it's causing the oozes to get weak and pop so I'm gonna have to get I'd like to use a steel line and go from here over to this come right out of here into this tank like it does when it comes out of here and goes down into that that's what I think I'm gonna do is run steel this one actually had aluminum and this one had copper I'd rather run steel if I'm going that far but I don't know we'll just have to see and that's what I'm gonna do with that you know they give me you know enough to at least blow off parts you know carburetors and stuff like that at least till we can get her dads out here because it's huge like I say it may be 220 I'm not sure but it's you know it's a lot better than this one but anyway so there you go guys so just kind of messing around in the garage a little bit trying to do a project but I do know it'll hold 40 pound without without blowing the line so that's plenty to blow off carburetors and stuff I got one on the desk right now I need to blow off and I can't because I don't have a an air compressor so but that'll work good enough for that until we get his out here or until I get a piece of line or something I'd like to like I said steel I'd like to run steel on it but if I can't I will run copper but so anyway at least we got it working and it's very quiet so alright guys thanks for hanging out with in the garage with me today and shooting shit so but yeah I think that's what it's doing cuz that hose those hoses aren't for heat you can't you can't let them get hot like that so that's what I got to thinking so I put that regulator over on there thinking maybe that was gonna take away some of the heat but it didn't so it just takes a lot longer to build that heat up but it's still that's what's going on with that I never did like that that hose running across there like that anyway but you do what you got to do sometimes so we'll get it straightened out and hopefully I can get her dad's in here and you know we'll just just run that and get this old thing here back together because I do like that thing so see what see what we can do with that I may just go ahead and take that that base plate and that head unit off there and put on this tank and it's a 12 gallon tank we'll just have to see I just love doing stuff like this so again thanks for watching Shea Bear the myth the main legend gone for now bye bye guys take care
