 Wheelie bars, weight brackets, custom bull gears, hubs, brake rotors, axle shafts, light weight WC centers, aluminum transmission cover, Porsche rack and pinion aluminum front end including wheels, all made complete in house Pankey, including broaching, gear cutting, and heat treating, please keep in mind that this stuff is sideline work, not our main stream business, but I'm not going there because this is a tractor forum, not about race cars, chainsaws, minibikes, tonka trucks, or anything else you care to brag about. I really don't need to defend my position to a Clown like you, but here is a fair sample of my work, and from this point on, I'm done responding to your 3rd grade behavior.

Nice stuff there Ken. Good one Butch (on the noise I was hearing).
Ken,
Can you make transmission gears say for a model 180? I realize that's a tough questions without having a pattern or at least a picture.

Thanks for the compliments Guys. The Oliver was a customer job, we built the chassis and he put a Gingrich engine in it. As for the other questions, I would need to see the 180 gears in question before giving an answer, and about making another first gear for a WC/WD, I tried it, and felt it was a waste of time, easier and more versatile to play with final drive ratios and the ring and pinion, than to change on gear. The RC/High Crop conversion is the most bang for the buck, no durability problems if done correctly.

Plinky, hate to be the bearer of bad news but your amateur status is showing again, that is TIG weld not MIG as is obvious to anyone who has actually used the processes on aluminum. Just as we know that the process you used on the balancer was PAH (Poo Apllied by Hack)
As for the Oliver real shops do work for others gesh! Not to worry Plink as you dont need to make a living welding, or figuring out simple things like the Oliver picture as the royalties from your Gleason cloaking devise should allow you to live high on the hog.

Lol, you of all people to pick apart welds.  Spunk your weld jobs have been posted so many times I doubt there is a member on here who hasent whitnessed your work of art welds on that pulley. Nice tractors Ken, nice work on the internals too. Quality machine work is nice to see. I know spunk, you're going to say shiny parts please everyone but there's a difference here. Ken's parts work, and continue to work, your parts aren't even shiny, more less work lol.

you can mig weld aluminum with a spool gun, not sayin it is a mig weld just sayin it can be done, though it isn't the best process

Yessir you can weld Alum with a correctly set up MIG, where did you see me say ya couldn't?  LOL. Point is/was the welds are clearly TIG, and the site's self proclaimed smartest person doesn't know the difference.

I don't think the goon has a clue Butch. He (pank0) yeah thats not pank o that's pank0 as zero doesn't seam to want to take part in his challenge so I'll take the liberty to post some pics of our resident idiots workmanship in a bit. You guys beleve this idiot thinks you can make billet main caps and put them on without line boreing-honeing? He seams to make up BS about his cobble shop thinking you can. It has to be the anti rotation tabs.

Butch if its tig must have either used floranted tungstien or argon or both together. To correctly tig aluminum under alcoa aluminum certification you use pure tugnstein and helium for sheild.its been a while since i had welding certs. I do keep medical gas cert still though.

I'm sorry plinko but I just gotta save this for future generations. You boys have fun explaining to him the difference between fluoride and throited tungston and why argon is used. Google it Mitch and edit your post...you're literally to stupid to try and argue with at this point.

To pass a aluminum certification helium is correct sheild gas and pure tungstein is used. Argon or tboranatedd florinated whatever other than pure tungstein will not pass certification tig test at alcoa aluminum

Quality work. Some of the best wheelies I've seen in a long time. Do y'all sell custom R&Ps for WCs? I'm still figuring out why one would need a medical Gas cert to balance turbines and work on camaros?

Nuclear maintenance. Ps thoranated tungstein when sharpened stuck into a nuke workers jacket will lock up the radiation portal monitors. At least the oliver guy knows that wheelie bars are for safety and modified engines and cut tires are for pulling

OK, so it's incorrectly welded, and you know this how? First it was a MIG weld, now it's a TIG weld, but done incorrectly, Helium hasn't been used since the dark ages for most applications. What kind of cert is required for the welds shown in those pics of yours? We may be on to something here with the medical gas certs, there may have been a serious over application of NOS causing irreversible damage. Still waiting on your pics Mitch, and I think the Judges on here are too.

LOL, I figured when the VI came back it would be good for a laugh. This AM he didnt know MIG from TIG but this afternoon he is giving us carnal knowledge of the process.
You may be right Ken, NOS? But he did post a picture of a car fender he painted, wonder if he wore a mask? ISO will cause brain fade. Around here every 1 stop light town has a shop that paints fenders, sometimes two or three.
All in all I think Marty has had it right on his sig line since way back.
AND where is the Gleason??

The cast centers are cut on our water jet machine, I think that Gleason is virtual, maybe part of some computer game like Farmville, Pank plays "Motorsports Mogul" complete with 3D glasses, joystick and secret decoder ring.

Whoa! Something else for Plinky to Google and play expert, Key word "water jet machine" Be careful Plink that you don't come up with soda fountain equipment! that could be embarrassing if you posted about making a rootbeer float. I don't blame ya for being totally jealous of Ken's work Plink but somes got it some dont.
