Custom Cez's video: How to build a diy english wheel tutorial - Roma Custom Bike

Custom Cez builds an home made english wheel DIY. In this 3 parts episode Custom Cez calls on Janusz "Polsky Rage" Wilczek for help, along with a special guest, a fan of the show that offered his services for the show's noble cause, Sergio from the FB group Rat Bike Italia. This english build is divided in 3 parts, the construction of the frame, the manufacturing of the anvil supports and, last but not list, the construction of the lift mechanism. CHAPTERS: 00:00 - English wheel plans animation 00:29 - Welding of the frame 01:31 - Transfer of the blue print to the stock 01:37 - Cutting of the stock 01:45 - Perforation 02:25 - Assembly and welding of the pieces 03:55 - Creation of the spacers 04:16 - Carving of the bottom support pin 05:00 - creating the wheel support 07:33 - creating the lift mechanism and working the piston and cylinder on the lathe 08:23 - CNCed a pocket on the steel tube 09:05 - Welded the tube to the main structure 10:00 - finalized the build 11:10 - tested the english wheel with a piece of aluminum sheet Original episodes: Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0U-yGS1zsU&index=19&list=PLV71LsSNUG3A_EEj3kG_7OdroCRSTP6kn Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgrPrVSIiSQ&index=20&list=PLV71LsSNUG3A_EEj3kG_7OdroCRSTP6kn Part 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmHcq...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60TiVVsHtq4&index=21&list=PLV71LsSNUG3A_EEj3kG_7OdroCRSTP6kn PART ONE - BUILDING THE FRAME Janusz brought us a bunch of tubing left over from a construction site to use to build the frame of the english wheel. While working on the project Janusz has taken the opportunity to teach us a couple of tricks on how to weld for strength and penetration, which resulted in an actual welding competition among us. The frame is assembled and strengthen while checking alignment and tolerances to produce a nice final result. What did we do: Tube cutting Welding of the frame Tolerances check PART TWO - THE ANVIL SUPPORTS In the second episode we make the support brackets that will hold the top and bottom anvils. The bottom one is designed for quick change of the wheel depending on the needed radius. We start by cutting the necessary pieces to assemble the top bracket, three pieces made out of 5mm stock plate. We make the two holes on the side panels using a press drill with a step bit. Then we tackle the bottom wheel support, spacers and the center pin. What did we do: - Transfer of the blue print to the stock - Cutting of the stock - Perforation - Assembly and welding of the pieces - Creation of the spacers - Carving of the bottom support pin PART THREE - THE LIFT MECHANISM In this 3rd and final part we make the lifting mechanism for the bottom anvil. We went to see my neighbor, Mr. Pietro, to use his lathe so we could make the piston and cylinder for the system. Them we CNCed a pocket on the tube to fit a pin on the piston so it would travel straight up and down and finalized the build of the English wheel. What did we do: - worked the piston and cylinder on the lathe - CNCed a pocket on the steel tube - Welded the tube to the main structure - finalized the build - tested the english wheel with a piece of aluminum sheet An RMPnet.com production, music by FAS.
