1880's Bread Cutter - AlexanderWerk - Restoration with laser cleaning

[@sheroykalyanwala9258]

That is one of the nicest restorations I've seen so far . Well done 👏

[@TheFabrik]

Glad you enjoyed ! Thank you 🙌 🙌

[@frankierzucekjr]

He really put a lot into this one didn't he. The new toys (tools) made it even more fun to watch too. He's always done some great stuff, but it seems he gets better and better every video.

[@ethanterry7290]

Agreed! I watch a ton of these and I’ve never seen a better one. Subscribed!

[@neonity4294]

I'm living in germany since 40 years and never heard nor saw anything from the company AlexanderWerk until I got hooked to such restorations. And now I watched at least 20 vids about cheese graters, bread cutters or sausage stuffers from them during the last two years. 😅

[@TheFabrik]

Oh really 😅 !! That’s funny ! I thought everyone in Germany knew Alexanderwerk...

[@user-tq5lu1wp7e]

Ich bin jetzt sechzig. Ich habe noch die Zeit mitbekommen, bevor die Trommelreiben, Brotschneider, Schnibbelbohnenschneider und ähnliches durch moderne Küchenmaschinen ersetzt wurden. Alexanderwerk war sehr weit verbreitet. Später landeten die Geräte erst im Keller und sobald sie Rost angesetzt haben, im Schrott. Ich habe heute noch ein paar von den Geräten in Gebrauch. Zum Beispiel die Mandelmühle und eine Nummer größer die Kartoffelreibe für Kartoffelpuffer und rösti. Mit der Kurbel macht es mehr Spaß.

[@jeanbonnefoy1377]

Everytime, I don't know what's the best: the sheer top-notch work, the state-of-the art technology used (in conjunction with good ol' tricks of the trade like linseed oil or old playing cards used to smoothen up resin filler) or the virtuoso filming and editing. And thanks again for the parti-pris of silent treatment, without any superfluous comment or invasive background music. So rare and so relaxing on YT. ❤️👍'

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks again Jean for watching and commenting.👍👍👍 Your support is very important to me. It encourages me to continue my work with new videos. See you soon 😉

[@NTRprojects]

The most unorthodox and creative way to remove a pin I have ever seen :) great work on this one again.

[@TheFabrik]

😅 Thanks a lot mate 🙏

[@stormvogel6]

Kan hier uren van genieten....de video's zijn erg leuk, en met smaak opgenomen met een komische tint. Het verbaasd mij dat er voorwerpen die als nieuw weer te tevoorschijn komen, met de meest grote complimenten aan de "artiest" die dit verwezenlijkt!! Dit is echt een TOPPER!!!!

[@aliciagonzalez212]

Saw the clip of this bread cutter on Facebook so I had to come find the whole video! I love these restoration videos. I get to see things I never knew existed and how they work! Keep up the amazing work!! Excellent video! I shall binge watch the rest!

[@TheFabrik]

Thank you very much !!! Glad you appreciated it 😌🙏

[@mrked1670]

Alexander Werk himself could not have imagined that his instruments could look so great

[@GamerLoggos]

Haha. I loved the laser cut letters. I was thinking you were going to some how braise in letters but that was pretty clever. A heck of a lot less work than anything I was cooking up in my head.

[@thomaswhitten2537]

Yes, that was pretty slick! Didn't see it coming! I would have done it a different way and screwed it up. 😊

[@TheFabrik]

I wanted to make the letters of steel... been a bit lazy I must admit 😋

[@samanthadean1083]

I’m amazed that you were able to save the original wood parts!!! Fantastic job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheFabrik]

Many thanks 😃

[@alejandroarriagada3991]

So beautiful. ASMR for workshop people. Brought me back memories when younger and had to fix farm and forest tools: hilts, bolts, handles and edges. My respects!

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks a lot ! Glad it brings back good memories 🙌

[@cinm9565]

What I so enjoy is that you make things better than new. A true perfectionist.

[@TheFabrik]

Thank you !! I did my best 😌🙌

[@johnkelley9877]

I cannot believe how nice this turned out! I was surprised to see such rough casting surfaces on the iron parts but you did a fantastic job of making it look like the manufacture no doubt envisioned for this. Thanks for sharing this tutorial.

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks to you for watching and commenting ! Glad you enjoyed !

[@frankierzucekjr]

I gotta say, this is top notch restoration. I love the new toys you got too. That Lazer is awesome, no mess and looks like it does a little bit of everything. The close ups, great editing, adding the letters back in flawlessly and phenomenal work. Freakin awesome bud, I didn't think your channel could get better than it already was, I was wrong. Bravo sir 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 amazing job. Love your channel

[@TheFabrik]

Wow Frankie thank you so much for these nice words I really do appreciate it 🙌 Glad you enjoyed

[@Phantom7859]

I didn't think you'd actually replace the missing letters but yet you did. Great restoration and, as someone else said before, many many MANY thanks for NOT overlaying the clip with useless music

[@nurmaybooba]

not only do I get to watch an artist repairing an old heap in to the once beauty it was, I get to see fine cinematography....a win!

[@TheFabrik]

Many thanks !

[@gromit1996]

That is some serious, next-level restoration. Wowzers. I love the "re-addition" of the letters. "This is a work of art".

[@TheFabrik]

Many thanks Clay ! I try to improve myself with each restoration ! Glad you enjoyed it😊

[@CoolRestorations]

Great restoration and results brother👍 The wood color and the golden outline looks perfect!✨

[@TheFabrik]

Thank you so much mate 🙌 Glad you enjoyed 😌👍🏻

[@Damien.D]

Impressive. Can't believe you even reused and fixed the original wood planking.

[@TheFabrik]

Hi Damien ! And thanks ! I think I should have changed the wood but I wanted to keep as much original parts as possible... Would have been more stable with new wood...

[@Damien.D]

@@TheFabrik indeed, an hard choice, as old wood have a unique and lovely patina...

[@ronaldsteele6151]

To be in the area of 140 years old I say it looked pretty good to begin with. Yeah it was dirty and rusty but for it's age was in pretty good shape. Now for the restoration part, to use virtually all the original parts (wood included) was incredible and those screws may have looked like they seen better days but again they were 140 years old. In all a great job (LoL) incredible restoration

[@TheFabrik]

Thank you !! 🙌

[@hanshase7324]

Hallo, wie immer ein schönes Video und der Laser ist ja echt Superklasse, denn hätte ich auch gerne. Und schön das du so alte Sachen wieder wie neu machst. Absolut 👍👍👍

[@TheFabrik]

Danke vielmals !👍

[@PaulinesPastimes]

Just when I think the last restoration was the best yet, along comes another one! I didn't expect you to be able to save the timber, lovely to see. 😊

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks a lot. I try to improve myself every time! I hope my next restoration will be even better 🙌

[@Gigi-mj8pl]

Sir I am in absolute awe of your talent! WOW!! What an awesome gift you have. Just incredible. I never would have thought of that last little gold touch….PERFECTION!

[@TheFabrik]

Wow !! thanks a lot 😊😊😊😊

[@PaulRestorer]

Simply the world championship. Perfect work with metal. I really liked the way to complete the inscription on the cast iron. It turned out brilliant. Also, the very fact that you have kept the original wooden parts shows how carefully you approach the issue. Kind regards

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks a lot Mate 😌🙌

[@ВадимКузнецов-з2й]

Молодец ретромастер!-, отличная получилась рестоврация!-, деревянный уголок лучше бы конечно сделать новым!!!

[@kedzior1991]

I love your work style. I wish you would restore more tools like this, since I'm personally not interested in toys... Great job.

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks a lot !!

[@jimsweeney]

Excellent restoration - far better than the usual KZbin attempts. That was a pleasure to watch.

[@TheFabrik]

Many thanks 😊

[@ygrbooks]

As always fabulous workmanship. And - if I am wrong - a first: "I'll keep some of the patina." That is very good news.

[@dougpassat]

Impressed with the reproduction of the missing letters. Truly a master restorer.

[@rohamyeganeh2778]

You are going to another level pro. If you just start to use powder coating and be a little bit more patient with sanding you can be one of the top 3 in KZbin. I hope you really consider my message. All the people here are crazy about the restorations that has the perfect detailing and you are almost there...

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks a lot for the advice.😉 Soon the top 3 ?🤞🤞🤞

[@calebmiller5632]

Love the creativity in the different techniques for certain processes instead of the same thing every time. And the camera angles. Excellent work as always. You make it look so easy lol

Thank you very much !!

[@dannyhenson3141]

That turned out absolutely beautiful ❤️. I love old gadgets like this.

[@pfadiva]

Call me dense but I would have never considered using a laser engraver for rust removal! Well done.

[@diyresttube]

I think this is more beautifully than the manufacture realese...I love your new toy..video editing was good.

Thanks a lot mate ! Keep up the good work !

[@Dorelaxen]

The fix for the letters was amazing!

This is so relaxing to me. Love your work. Fixing the the brand name was amazing and that blade looks brand new!!!

[@stefanschneider3681]

No need to repeat why I love your videos, did it before, but adding laser to your tools looks great! Did you ever consider submitting one of your videos to a short-film-festival? Because the quality of them is just top-level!

[@TheFabrik]

Thanks again Stefan !😊 No, I never considered showing my videos to a short film festival ! For the moment my videos are only broadcast on social networks🤷‍♂️

[@mariskaharris1712]

I enjoy watching your channel! I would like to make a humble suggestion that you create a cool metal sign to replace the paper sign that is sometimes displayed in the background. Maybe you've already thought of this, in which case, I apologize 😁 also I really like the powder-coating...if you could do more of that. Thanks for your great work!

[@TheFabrik]

Thank you !! I need a new sign I know that ;) I’ll make one soon probably ;)

[@maruja8751]

Très belle restauration. Très technique... Attention les doigts... Bravo... encore une fois...

[@paulvozman842]

Hi, another perfect restoration, it was amazing to see the lazer cleaning the corrosion on the blade and after polishing looked like chrome. The refurbishing of all the origional parts makes this even more impressive.and your attention to detail is superb. Cheers, Paul.🔧🪛🖌👍👍👍

Hi Paul ! Thanks again for your encouragement ! 😊😊😊Cheers

Never seen a mill use for polishing.... nice!!

[@Kim-the-Dane-1952]

Very cool. I still have a perfectly working example of the very similar Danish designed version that was produced for generations by the Raavad company in Denmark and I use it daily.

[@TheFabrik]

Cool. I hope you are careful using it ? I almost cut my finger with this model😥😥😥 😃😃

[@Kim-the-Dane-1952]

@@TheFabrik Ha ha... yes it is a pretty dangerous piece of equipment. I cannot believe that I also used one as a kid. At least my model has a small lever that controls (most of the time😅) the slice thickness so you are not as likely to slide the bread and your finger too far forward.

[@TheFabrik]

Love the restoration but I still think the high gloss powder coat paint hides all of the beautiful detail that this guy worked so hard to bring out. It’s like this on a lot of other restorations and in many ways obscures some of this incredibly talented restorer’s ability to

Hey TF A labour of love and a great outcome. Your new lettering and repurpose of the base were my favourite parts. Take care 🙂 Edit I would have liked to be there when it was bought brand new.

[@f75gunslinger]

Great restoration . My only critique is filing , sanding , and polishing the bolts , then nickel.plating them . They look nicer , but they lose all the aspect of , what looked to me like , cast iron . Same with the screws . If I am mistaken and it was just what was left after the pitting was removed my apologies . I just love to see stuff try to keep that cast finish whenever possible .

[@Mathias-x7v]

Am I the only one who watches these videos and thinks about how the original maker would feel if they could see this? Like, they probably put it together with their bare hands, using tools that seem primitive to us now. Imagine their reaction watching someone bring it back to life with all these high-tech gadgets and modern techniques.

Great restoration btw. A pleasure to watch.

Nice that you replaced the lost letters and wonderful restoration as per usual , did you ever think why they were removed , intriguing question but I suppose given the age of the object that will never be known ?
