89 Years Old Pipe Cutter...And Its A Beast!

What a fantastic $20 FaceBook Market Place find that I had to tackle. Great bones and truly a beast of a tool that seemed deserving of a second life. I really hope you enjoy this one! Please feel free to comment good or bad. I am still in the process of dialing in my channel, experimenting with some of this and that, and nothing helps more than feedback. I do like to know what I've gotten wrong as much as what I've gotten right.
Most importantly...Thanks for watching!

That pipe cutting skit at the end was better filmed than some movies I've seen.

[@gsp911]

13:44 It looks like a 3D drawing, almost too perfect to be real. 😎

[@PrinceAllen777]

It definitely was👍🏾

[@JavierLopez-zb3cr]

Literally. He’s good at editing. Very creative dude.

[@prestooxo3135]

Absolutely

[@skippycadex1560]

I get the feeling this guy is wearing a Dead Pool mask the entire time.

[@shokid24]

Either a Deadpool or the cowl of Batman!

[@NotNothing567]

Still really love your editing style and humor. Most of these restoration channels all do things the exact same way. You really make these your own. Keep going. This channel will be huge in no time.

[@mrgodBG]

i agree

[@johnnykairouz5684]

Me three

[@JackBealeGuitar]

Yes, I don't know why they're all afraid of speaking, but at least we know this guy is a human (maybe) with a sense of humour

[@McWhatevs]

Totally agree. Firstly, I love your workmanship and the finish you get with your projects, but I also you feel you inject just the right amount of something different. At the end of the day it's the restoration and the work involved that seems to draw us into these videos, and I'd hate the see "gimmicks" get in the way of that; I think you strike the perfect balance however. And yes, your camera work and editing is first rate. Looking forward to the next one.

[@suhayl5157]

in fact its exactly the opposite. he borrowed the cat from LADB, the process from my mechanics, the humor from tsy something and many others. he is good. I think he is still finding his way

[@jozsefizsak]

Isn't that splendid, a tool that was designed to have every part replaced if it wore out. I think you showed it the respect it deserves. Very nice.

[@calvinwhelan6206]

Also seems like it was designed to never wear out lol

[@miket5506]

Making the cat disappear with that sound was hilarious for me, I don’t know why 😅 That’s some amazing restoration work right there! Great job!

[@shanesgettinghandy]

The cat blips might have been my favorite part.

[@dutchman7623]

@@shanesgettinghandy I managed to let my cat disappear almost as fast as he does, but there is some irritating noise immediately afterwards...

[@gsp911]

Pure sound, no excessive use of incredibly annoying youtube music. This is how it should be done. 👍

[@jrand2631]

Beautiful - who knew that an old pipe cutter could look like a piece of industrial art! 👍👍👍

[@jackalovski1]

Actually, legitimatly a beautiful restoration

[@MatthewJorgensen1968]

The fact that after 89 years it still moved at all is a testament to the era in which it was created...

[@Hammerback972]

Like my gramma.

[@vapeurdepisse]

People always say that. You can still buy this quality when you don't buy your tools at Walmart.

[@Brainreaver79]

@@vapeurdepisse true, there are a lot of things out there, where buying the low price option is viable. but tools is a category where every penny saved often results in quality loss...

[@tituspullo9210]

Tears from sanding 😂😂😂👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@scunnerdarkly4929]

The pre-resto state was pretty impressive for something that’s nearly 90 years old. Good work as always 👍

[@Mad9977]

lol your puns towards TysyTube and My Mechanics 😂👍 what a fantastic result, respect ✌️😎👍

[@MartinJDavidson]

"Wow!!" Now that's beautiful.

[@motorbikemadness5773]

No longer a tool, it's a work of art. I would hang that on my wall. No joke. Excellent!

[@jpsinister01]

ha I came here to say the same thing that would definitely be in full display

[@christopherpelton725]

One could argue, the end results of all these restorations are better than new condition.

[@plombo5728]

As a plumber I appreciate this. As a man who had his day turned around by this work, I subscribe. My hats off to you! Excellent production!

[@SJ8311]

I don't know who you are Sir, but you've done me a power of good.

[@mckeanevans3672]

Please, continue on with your work. This is great stuff.

[@SmasherHell]

Even that tools from that era look amazing like that when just manufactured, new life for that pipe cutter, and a very long life. As always amazing video editing, your work is stunning, every restoration is a real piece of vintage art

[@jacobleonard7306]

You and My Mechanics are my favorites for resto and restomods👍

[@RebuiltRestored]

Perfect! Literally perfect! I’m just a little tuber and you are inspiring! Thank you!

[@KILORESTORATION]

Thanks Rebuilt and Restored! I’m just a little KZbinr myself. It took me 10 months to get to 43 subscribers and six weeks ago...it went crazy. Also, Your hammered finish on the skilsaw put mine to shame! You tube will find you.

[@RebuiltRestored]

@@KILORESTORATION thanks! Keep up the grind! 100k is close!!

[@cpaulo1]

You don’t get a finish like that until you’ve filled a bottle full of tears from the amount of sanding.

[@CoolRestorations]

Yes you are back! Hope you make it to 100k very soon brother! -Cool Restorations

[@amtechprinters3339]

Holy pipe cutter! You finally might have best restorer's award 😱👍

[@-Deena.]

I was in that first 16 subs and predicted great things. So basically it's all down to me. No problem. You're welcome. 🧡😁

[@Slapgaat]

New “Harbor Freight” crap shows why this type of restoration is not just an art form, but also a necessity. A curse on Chinesium and Thaitanium tools. Give me hundred year old steel any day.

[@42Hertzer]

No one seems to want to pay for quality these days... :(

[@DanielMores]

@@42Hertzer And yet you CAN get quality tools if you look around and not get the first item that you see.

[@42Hertzer]

@@DanielMores yeah unfortunately most ppl don't care. Better buy quality and and cry once than buying crap and cry twice (or more)! 😋

[@Christopher_Hampton]

But yet I saw some harbor freight tools being used. Buy a cheap tool, if it becomes a important tool then upgrade🤷‍♂️

[@CH1CK3NNU66375]

Dude, the Tape deck skit had me laughing. Great restoration too! keep it up!

[@ryanboodhoo3512]

Wow a new pipe cutter of this size for 6 dollars good luck trying to find that now a days

[@johnhilkert4405]

Wow! Looks amazing. I like your bottle of tears from sanding. I feel like they make a difference.

[@kjamison5951]

Some of that video editing and use of lighting gave real drama and depth to this restoration! Encore une fois, mon brave. Also, the furry QA supervisor examining at every stage... priceless!

[@jantelliquawallace355]

Cats. Tools. american craftsmanship. Very nice. I appreciate this VERY MUCH

[@m3talc0re]

What's really crazy is how little this tool has changed over 89 years. It's damn near identical to a new one 0_o

[@garyjones2582]

That turned out beautiful.. I would be afraid 😨 to cut anything with that.. K.R. keep up the great work and you'll catch up with My Mechanic one day.. God Bless and take care my friend...

[@The_Shiny_Red_Dingus_of_Mingus]

I heard a rumour that Tom Cruise saw your "action montage" and wants to hire you for Mission Impossible 47.

[@eveninrain]

The process of restoration has healing properties.

[@marceloarcanjo8765]

I wonder how useful this tool has been after almost 100 years of existence. Now it is ready for another 100 years and much more beautiful! Great job!

[@aubreychaparral32]

You are my hands down favorite resto channel. The editing and humor are A1. So glad I came across your channel!

[@DavidMcCurley]

So beautiful it makes me want to cry. Amazing work. I appreciate the flow of fast/slow. Very satisfying. I also love the cat popping in and out. Makes me laugh.

[@fredrichardson9761]

Wow, nicely done! I think there are some plumbers out there envying your pipe cutter, it's a beauty!

[@youmasajp]

Bravo! fixing the imperfections and make it better what it was - now that is entering the big league!

[@miguelcastro6065]

Great restore work, as usual, but... that celebration, the true "piece of resistance"!!!

[@ejwows7008]

This is one of my fav restores you've done. The jar of "Tears from Sanding" was a nice touch. I really like the rapid filing, grinding, etc. with the sound effects. I know it shortens the video a little but honestly if it was real time it'd take a 24/7 week to watch. Good work as per usual.

[@johnnewton2949]

Immaculate. With work like that you should reach 100k in no time and then many more.

[@johncraig4718]

You do such a fantastic job . Leaves me speechless , and that's not easy to do .. lol

[@clegger064]

Unnecessarily extravagant slow mo edits, you may have just 1 “up’d” MyMechanics...

[@fernandoqueirozpopovic7024]

Well let's be honest, the only thing that really could make him 1up My Mechanic would be if he has a milling tool or something similar like that

[@Gruuvin1]

Before all that work, you had a tool you could use. Edit: okay... That was beautiful!

[@jkpchewy]

I have spent half my day watching these videos. I can't stop!

[@theaviator8046]

The Camera, the Cut, Your Sense of Humor, the Cat and the Restoration itsself are excellent. I enjoy every of your Videos. Thank you for sharing this.

[@HepauDK]

Magnificent job, looks awesome. The MyMechanics soundtrack is my personal favorite. I just love listening to "I make a new one". ;)

[@theRandy712]

Sorry, have to make some comments. 1 ) Your video production style is really fun. Love the levity, the cat, everything. 2 ) The finished result was stunning. At first I thought you were crazy for painting but it came out so much better than I would have ever expected. It's beautiful. 3 ) I think that's it. Should have stopped with two.

[@nineteenandfortyone]

I like to see a good cat in a restoration video! Excellent restoration!

Perfect restoration! Perfect colour you choose, perfect all the polished parts( my mechanics insipiration I guess), perfect montage, perfect direction! Well done mate! Carry on!

[@Pho8os]

Man, those old tools were built to last centuries.

[@Wild-Storm]

I think it's RIP days has been postponed until someone restore it somewhere year 2100..

[@SpatialDragon]

That was the sign of a quality cassette player when it opened that slow.

[@milykalbasi]

i like the humorous personality of your hands

[@raywood8187]

That turned out as sharp looking. I was curious, $6 in 1932 is equal to $108 today but you'd probably have to pay twice that to get a good steel pipe cutter like this one.

[@jeffjohnson3099]

Ok, I've watched several resto guys on youtube, and my only consistent one is hand tool rescue. But the look of this resto is absolutely amazing. It looks like a 3d model rendering at the end. Fantastic stuff. Subbed.

[@heberdua]

You took an old rusty tool and turned into a useful piece of art, very cool.

[@user-og1vl3nw6g]

Good work & great sense of humor!

[@19Bmiller]

An amazing job as always with special thanks to the cat. I will say though, did seem a bit sillier then usually. Great job, great skill

[@KILORESTORATION]

Thanks for the input, Bob! I agree , I might should have dialed back the silliness. I’m still new enough to this that each video is a bit of an experiment....and I wait for the comments to steer the ship.

[@DavidMcCurley]

@@KILORESTORATION I rather enjoyed the silliness and your sense of humor. Looking forward to the next one!

@@KILORESTORATION don't dial it back at all. That was the perfect amount of silliness. Very entertaining video, and a beautiful restoration!

It is working! I can not believe! Now you my second best restoration specialist after my mechanic. I unsubscribed from tysy when I found your channel.

Don’t do that...TYSY TUBE is great! But, you are allowed to subscribe to what you want...lol!

@@KILORESTORATION TySy became more show than restoration. Not interesting.

[@richardbadish6990]

This is something you'd be really hard pressed to find in a tool nowadays! That thing is museum quality, looks like a Trophy! Not something you'd use on the daily. But u most definitely could! This why I love old Tools! Job well done sir!
