Excellent video Barry. Watching this was so relaxing and enjoyable, especially after having the work week from hell. It also reminds me of sitting in the garage watching my dad work on stuff with tools just like this. It warms my heart that you understand and respect their history. Your channel logo is awesome by the way. :) . Be well and stay safe. Until next time. Cheers! :)

OMG I feel ancient now and I am only 53 🤣🤣 We used to use these in woodwork class in the comprehensive school I went to. I wasn't very good at it sadly but I did love it. Wish I had found channels like yours when I could use my hands properly. Instead i will just appreciate watching you do it on this channel and your awesome furniture channel where I came from originally. It came up in my suggestions for some totally unknown reason 😃 i watch mostly Doctor Who stuff so this blindsided me and I thought what the heck going to take a look at this. Never looked back 😁

Excellent work, Barry. I find it interesting how hand tools are built. And again you saved a tool from rotting. In addition, the video has something meditative about it. It reminds me of my grandfather.He visited garbage dumps and brought home old tools, bicycles, which he then brought back to life. Be good to yourself. Bye for now. ;)

Beautiful job. My Grampy was a woodworker and had a drill similar to that. Some of my fondest memories was him letting us kids play with some of his tools. This was one I always gravitated to cause I loved the sound it made as I tried to get it to go as fast as possible. Then I got old enough that he would put a drill bit in it and hand me a piece of wood. So much better entertainment then the TV!

When is was new, it was a small, low-end tool that sold for a modest price. But it was well made, from quality materials, and it displayed the proudest words ever stamped on any tool: MADE IN USA Great job restroring it, and keep up the good work !

I am obsessed with these videos. I refinish furniture and watch a lot of videos which is how I came across your other page & for some reason I just decided to see what the tool restoration was about (if you had asked me before that I would have absolutely said I had zero interest in any such thing). It is the most zen experience watching these tools being brought back to life. Now I totally want to try to do a few myself and make a display in my work area just because looking at these makes me feel so happy. Is restoring these as relaxing & oddly soothing as watching someone else do it haha? Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!

I subscribed to your other channel the other day and now have subscribed to this one. I watch a ton of restoration videos and have a long list of tools, products, and notes for ideas. I want to do restorations someday. Actually, I restored an old lamp last year. My dad passed away and my mom gave it to me. I thought it was my grandpa's since it was obviously hand made and saw it at my grandparents house by their recliner. Once I restored it I sent a picture to my mom. She said that my dad had made it in high school woodshop for my grandma. He signed his name on the bottom. It now holds place of pride in my living room. It is amazing to think of the history behind old things and it is wonderful to see new life put back in them for future generations to enjoy. Keep up the great work!!!

I really like the tool restoration videos as well because I haunt estate sales on the weekends, and I’ve bought buckets of screwdrivers for example for $5, made in USA tools, what a deal! I have always wanted to learn some of this to: 1. Figure what kind of tools would work for me in case I try restoring some items myself 2. I have my Grandma’s old standup wooden cabinet style radio, and I’d like to learn if I can get it working somehow again

That turned out beautifully! I have a drill like this that was my dad’s; probably 80-85 years old. I’ve always enjoyed using it around the house for simple things. This restoration seems to be a simple enough project, although time consuming. I don’t have all the fancy tools you have, but I’m going to give it a try! (My fear is that I’ll take it apart and won’t remember how to put it back together!) 🤪 I really love that it was made in the USA 🇺🇸 I subscribed and I’m in Albuquerque, NM.

W O W!! This is a beautiful restoration, Barry! Amazing job, especially considering what you started with! My husband has his great grandfather’s tools (not one of these unfortunately) and the wooden toolbox, which was all found in his barn. It sat on my mother-in-law’s garage for yrs and then ours. I completely redid the toolbox last yr, it had a ton of damage and built out of a bunch of different pieces of scrap wood. But the handle was this beautiful piece of very grainy walnut, so while I painted the box (had to hide all the repairs), I stained the handle in espresso. After watching this, I’m inspired to surprise him and restore the tools for him.

Barry I wrote this today after ruminating about some things that happened in my life. I thought you might appreciate it with your love of old tools: Different things impress you at different stages in your life. For example what might impress you when you’re 25, picture Vegas, flashy cars and shiny men with fancy clothes in an ultra modern building. But then you go along in life, working hard at trying to accomplish things like paying your mortgage and being employed to be able to afford your mortgage. And it’s many many years of working hard, evolving to just make sure you can pay your mortgage, and then you change. You can’t help but change because there were many times you struggled, you had times where you couldn’t even buy soap because you were paying for cars, and a house, food and utilities. Along the way you saw things you really wanted but you simply could not afford them and over time you began to see that what you had in the beginning, when you had nothing was always enough. In fact you long to remove everything in your house until you go back to a few very simple beautiful things you started with. At a certain age range you lose some really important people in your life, no one tells you that in your 40s and 50s you will probably lose your parents. You know they are going to die, but you don’t know when. You will lose a friend that you pictured being your friend forever, and those losses will bring you to tears, for years. There will be times in your life when many people die, and it will be hard to float at the surface because sometimes it will happen consecutively and quickly one after another and no one prepared your brain for this, but you still need to cope and go to work, and do your laundry, and buy groceries. People that have been there where you are will say things like, “be good to yourself” and it sounds like good advice. So for days you take a break from grief wondering, “How do I be good to myself?” And you start asking people, “What kinds of things did you do, to be good to yourself?” They understand why you are struggling and they give you ideas. They tell you bubble baths, massages, pedicures and at first you think those things are very selfish cause someone died, why do I need new nail polish? But what you don’t realize or maybe you forgot, your brain actually needs a break. It hurts your brain to feel so much loss. Your brain can get mushy during grief and it feels like it has a memory leak like a computer and it’s not functioning correctly. Processes can get lost during a memory leak in a computer just like your brain when grieving. So you start to build your arsenal of things that might help you take care of yourself. It can be easy things like listening to music, reading a book, a massage, a short trip to somewhere new just for the weekend. Sometimes it’s being around people, sometimes you need solace and to be alone. And you may vacillate between being with people and not, and that’s definitely ok. And after you’ve been through all this bullshit, you survive, you come out maybe not fighting but simply existing. You learn to be kind to yourself, and to be kind to others who may be going through a loss at any time you interact with them. You start to feel moments of laughter and times when you are happy. Over time a little by little you learn to appreciate your parents, your friends, and your life with a whole new outlook. You hold tighter to the people that are kind to you, and you begin to realize the kinds of people you should surround yourself with. Because the people you surround yourself with are your way, of being good to yourself. The people that are closest to you are like “gold nuggets”. You will drop anything to help them, and you will drop anything to go out and laugh with them. You need your gold nuggets more than you need a flashy car or house. You need your gold nuggets more than anything you could buy. After all that stuff happens, you see the flashy Vegas, or modern things like “glitter grout” as things that are temporary, their appeal is fleeting. You hear young people being mean to their parents and you literally shiver or feel sick at the thought of being so callous. You find a tool marked “Made in the USA” at an estate sale and it feels like the Holy Grail, as in Monty Python. And you wonder to yourself, “Why do I value this so much?” You value it because it still exists, it never broke, it still works and is fully functional. It may be dinged up, it may have scratches or dents but it still works! You marvel at this tool because someone made it that was an uncle or a mother and they made things to last. That tool had a life, and still does, and you feel sickened by planned obsolescence and how modern things fall apart. Now you may be thinking if you got this far, “is this about tools?” Yes and no, it’s about how we survive the death of our parents and loved ones, and why flashy modern things sometimes simply do not impress you anymore. Age has taught you a few things about appreciating the importance of things but most importantly valuing the gold nugget people. Everything gets old, and hopefully everybody gets old. If you get along well with your parents and they are still alive, appreciate them and what they have done for you. When they have died, you can’t tell them those things or show them what they mean to you. Tell your friends why they mean a lot to you, and tell them often why you like them, or what you value about their contribution in your life. Everyone gets lonely, try to ease people’s loneliness. If you aren’t sure how to do that, bring cheese!

I've never seen this tool before, but once you started using it, I could see how the gears work to make a hand-crank drill. The background sounds of plinks and drips of liquid are just perfect. The narration comes in to "fill in the blanks" but you are so talented in letting the visuals tell the story. I got a big grin from Billy Joel, and of course the CD's placement was not random. Super cool touch. The combo box knife/pocket knife is fantastic, and I want one for cutting up Amazon boxes! Does WD40 dissolve rust, or does it just reduce friction such that less effort is needed to get things moving? Not much you can't do with WD40 and duct tape. (Nerd trivia tidbit: The inventors of WD40 were looking for a formula to lubricate but not dry out or get gummy. After many "recipes," their 40th try was the magic and so they named it. The WD stands for "water displacement", and thus an empire was born.) It's great to see your subscriber number soar on the other channel, and this one will, too. You've hit a real sweet spot with your tone and your work, and I look forward to watching many more! Cheers from windy Oklahoma!
