1952's "National" Cash Register Machine Restoration - Can It Still Print Receipts?

[@rustyshadesrestoration]

Hi folks! It was a pleasure to restore this classic cash register, even though I was almost about to give up at some point, but I'm glad I didn't! I hope you will enjoy the video! Thank you for your support! Johnny

[@patrickcorcoran4828]

FYI this shows up as a blank thumbnail in my feed, its the youtube rounded rectangle, but with three dots in gray instead of a red play button. I've never seen that before, but I assume thats what shows up if there is no thumbnail picture. When I mouse over it, it shows you putting the cash register down on the bench.

[@rustyshadesrestoration]

Thanks for letting me know! I will contact the support team.

I know this was a lot of work. I remember the 1200/1500 and 1900 crank/electric models. Of course the 100 and 200's too. Next time, the larger bank models or coin sorter/counter. 🎉

[@joeldierker5982]

gotta admit... when you first revealed the mechanical innards of it, my first though was "he's either incredibly brave & optimistic, or a complete masochist if he breaks this all down to components." Good compromise with the cleaning & repair (restores my faith in sanity) & Great job overall, keep saving the old things!

[@ct6502-c7w]

Ha, yeah I was glad to see he didn't take it apart down to that level! I've restored antique adding machines and typewriters, but mostly just cleaning and taking off a few external parts or maybe taking apart the carriage to clean it. I would NEVER try to take apart the mechanism, that's asking for disaster!

[@mattbronsil6336]

Brave, optimistic, and masochist are not mutually exclusive from each other. :D

[@LadyLeigh]

When you were about half way through I thought, “no way is he going to be able to pull it all apart and put it back together” and my heart sank! Thank goodness you cleaned all the inner parts without pulling them apart! My next worry was how you knew which screws went where! You amaze me with your thoroughness and attention to detail. This truly is a masterpiece! 🤗🇦🇺

[@kmartcarol48]

I actually wanted to see him do a full restore.

[@rustyshadesrestoration]

@kmartcarol48 For what to pull apart everything if I managed to repair it already and there was no rust? Just for fun?

[@Newberntrains]

@@kmartcarol48 the inner parts just needed a degrease and oil service these machines are actually pretty simple to work on if u dont mess up the clocking of the system and thts likely why they never took it completely apart as it can be a pain to get it clocked right

My dad’s business had a large (6 drawers) NCR built in the 1940’s. It sat on a base with a cabinet with a total height of about 5’. I restored all the outside wood but would never have attempted the restoration you did. You did a great job!

[@citylockapolytechnikeyllcc7936]

My dad had one as well.... they were used in clothing/dept stores like Macys. Each drawer had a different sounding bell, and separate keys for each employee... This allowed a shared machine, but separate cash drawers for shift reporting. We used the 6-8 drawers as a tool chest in a hardware store, after the register part died. We sat a newer old NCR register from the 70s on top. I still have boxes of key blanks for old NCR registers RESET and other function.

[@Dan.d649]

We need more brainiacs like you. This is absolutely fabulous how you restored this old cash register, piece by piece. It must've taken a lot of time to figure something like this out and make it become like it was just purchased.

When I was a kid these (or rather their a tad more modern siblings) were still quite common place in small shops - in Germany affectionately called „Tante Emma Läden“ (literally: „Aunt Emma Stores“) - although already in the process of being phased out. I always admired these mechanical wonders and wanted to own one but, alas, it didn’t come to pass, yet.

A great restoration. I can clearly remember when cash registers very similar to this were in use across the UK, although of course ours registered pounds and pence after 1971 and pounds, shillings, pence and farthings before then. Now though, they are nearly all gone and you only see them in museums. For your sake I am glad you did not have to dismantle all the mechanism down to the last nut and bolt. That would have been INSANELY complicated to reassemble! May I offer you one tip which I hope will help you - such an old machine could well have contained lead paint. If I had been you I would have done lead detection tests on the painted surfaces before stripping it off.

[@rustyshadesrestoration]

Thank you so much! I always do the lead check, but I stopped filming it in each video. Especially when I have big projects like this one. Thanks again!

Было очень интересно смотреть на эту работу потому, как сам работал механиком по ремонту подобных советских аппаратов 70-х - 80-х годов, потом переходили на электронику. Интересно было смотреть и искать знакомые механизмы изготовленные по другим схемам. Очень интересно было смотреть как этот аппарат "раздевался"! В наших аппаратах это был цельный корпус, который снимался сразу весь. Вместо рычагов были кнопки, которые после пробивки чека возвращались в исходное положение. Был еще электромотор, но можно было работать и без него. Огромное спасибо за это видео! Вроде как вернулся на 40 лет назад!

Truly a testament to the incredible skills required to make this machine - and its apparent biggest benefactor, the screw industry 😂 Great work! I always wonder how to make the decision to either restore it and potentially lose value, or to have it operational again and be able to enjoy that. I think I prefer the latter but only as you have done - you didn’t re-fabricate big sections, you kept it the same parts and refinished them to preserve as much as possible. That’s some amazing work!

What a fabulous machine. And after nearly three-quarters of a century, it was still in reasonably good shape. Three busted springs, some glass, and the crank didn't work -- I didn't really see what you did to make it turn. I guess the drawer was stuck.

None of this 'scanning codes' stuff. My boss was skeptical and secretly had me tested. I was 1/2 cent off on a produce weigh in a $63.00 grocery bill.. 0-49 the customer was given the half cent rounded down, 50-99 the store rounded up. My produce was between 49-50 on the scale and I rounded down to the customers advantage. The test people rounded up. My boss was delighted at my accuracy. I could move customers twice as fast as any other checker and maintain accuracy. No raise, I was already a Journeyman, but i got more 'time and a half' hours and 'triple-time' hours when we were opened on the occasional holiday.
