I cut the skin off this one ATuesday wendsday and yesterday in between some other stuff i was doin. One day next week a fella from East Penn Rebuilders is gonna come out with some kinda lazer thing to measure the roll we need for it. We might be puttin a layer under the wear plate first, the base metal is pretty crappy and has big hollows in between the inside walls on the blade, I forgot to get pictures of it but rest assured it sure aint a pretty lookin thing, I hope i remember to get some pics next week. Meanwhile Im rebuilding the bottom corners and the side cutters.As always Im havin fun

Typically what we've been doing on the shovel buckets is we will put down inch and a half ar450 followed by a layer of 1 inch thick overlay NB Plus overlay plate. Dozer's get 1 inch overlay. Both shovel buckets and dozers will get all the edges of thd overlay hard faced to avoid chipping the carbide. Buckets are 41 yrd, and last 10-12 million ton of rock, depending on what we dig.

Reply:I thought it was a big deal when I coated a dozen plow shares with abrasion resistant rod,,each share took about ten rods,, (1/8") and I was welding with a Lincoln Tombstone,, AC of course,,We changed the shares about every 10 days of plowing,, on a 7 bottom plow.The front and rear shares wore noticeably quicker than the center ones,, Sometimes we would only "rotate" the shares,,LOL!

Thats what I heard anyway.The same type of fire got started last month out near Trevorton PA about 20 or 25 miles west of Centralia. Some folks used to dump their junk in an old pit with tires and trash and some goofball decided to light it up, sure enough the vein caught fire and got into an abandoned underground mine. They dumped 1.7 million gallons of water in it, to put it out. It seems like it might have worked in this one, the unbderground temps are lower and they havent detected the high co2 levels that they were getting when they first found the fire. They tried that in Centralia but it didnt work because there were too many openings into other coal veins and too many openings on the surface to give the fire air and a chimney. There are no accurate maps for either one of these mines in Trevorton or Centralia because there are old bootleg holes all over the place so they really have no idea where the fires could go. The family that worked the mine in Trevorton from what I been told is pretty sure this mine isnt connected to any other veins so that might be a big help

D11's and 797's are where it's at!
Nice to see pics. of your work on the big jobs! I would imagine a lot of 1/4" rods or Flux-Core on the blade rebuild.There is a place here that makes all kinds of hardfaced overlay plate for mining and other applications. They even have their own line of hardfacing wires, etc. Is that an option for the blade?https://trimay.com/Last edited by Welder Dave; 05-19-2021 at 04:41 PM.

BTW, those rock piles/dumps in the background of your first picture look like the waste dumps here where I live, they were formed from the copper mine here.

So this is where Im at with this thing
You can see how there is waves or hollows in the blade, well thats gonna get cut out and replaced with a piece thats East Penn is gonna roll for me. It will be half inch plateMeanwhile til that arrives I am doin this
There was some holes wore through on the bottom and the gussets were just about gone so I fixed the holes and welded 3/4 ar plate over them, lotsa waves in that so I pieced it all together welded them up anmd them beefed up the old gussets on the bottom, gonna do the same thing on the other side too and then there is some work on the side cutters to do, and some work on the moldboard
