For getting out the dent, use a steel ball bearing (large as you can fit through the mouth) and a strong permanent rare earth magnet on the outside, they come with handles for repairing horned musical instruments, but you can fabricate a handle cheaper. Keep using the magnet to roll the bearing across the dent till its gone. Works like a charm and no weld marks.

@RealHank1791
@RealHank1791 5 жыл бұрын
​@@MilesBader The strength of magnetic attraction to a given magnet is directly proportional to the mass of the ferromagnetic material being affected. The ball bearing provides enough ferromagnetic mass to exert the necessary force to bend the oiler's relatively thin wall. The wall itself would not have enough ferromagnetic mass to bend by itself and thus the bearing is needed and the wall will only bend where that extra force is applied. (Contrary to popular belief even the strongest magnet in the world couldn't do something like, pull a paper clip out of your hand. The paperclip simply doesn't have the ferromagnetic mass needed. The friction of your grip and your strength would be more than enough to overcome the attraction.) Edit: Oh and another gorgeous restoration. Kudos OP. Loving the videos.

@@MilesBader It doesn't really work out as well, the ball tends to stick and roll sluggishly, it makes an already awkward task even worse (you wouldn't use this method when you could access the underside easier with other tools). But heating the workpiece up to around ~700C+ makes it nonmagnetic and slightly more malleable (until it cools down).

You could also fix it with a paintless dent removal approach. Machine a steel collar that fits inside the filler neck. A stout steel rod with a rounded end and appropriate bends is then inserted through the collar and the dents are levered out from the inside, prying against the collar.

I'd have to agree. I've seen about a dozen channels thus far. And while Hand Tool Rescue does a great job, he doesn't use a polishing buff wheel on the goddamned pump springs. I Kinda want to label this kind of dedication to not...restoration, but some higher calibur. Words fail me. But essentially Restore might mean, clean it, fix the broken parts, and maybe a paint job. But he goes so far beyond, with the polishing, machining new parts. THESE PROJECTS ARE SUPERIOR TO WHEN THEY WERE NEW. Restoration...just doesn't feel adequate a term.

I agree that he is the number 1 on youtube from what i have seen. But only part what i am kinda sad about is that,he was the first youtuber who i started to watch restoring and he set the standars so high that noone can compete with him,that now if i watch someone else it feels like they are missing on details when restoring something.. Would have been much better if i would have seen someone else first and they would seem very good aswell and than gradually i would have found this channel and i would think this dudes restoration is just waaay more advanced (which it is). It is like he is the level 100 from 100. And now if watch anything else,it's not so enjoyable like watching this dude's restoration.

Also the buffing wheel is my favorite part. I like how you really try to get as many scratches out as possible.

But in that case you soak the peg AFTER you put it in the rock; you don't put a wet peg into the rock and expect to increase in size. If you soak a peg in water it will expand as long as it remains in the water; as soon as it is removed from the water and wiped off it stops expanding.I used to read similar stories about the clipper ships from the 19th century that were carrying rice. During storms the rice would get soaked, expand, and blow up the ship. I was skeptical.

Many thanks - I want to restore something now - perhaps an old hand plane for starters! Cheers from Sydney, Aust

After thinking about it for a bit... it looks like a check valve that allows oil to be pulled up into the pump when the plunger is pushed out with the spring. The when you press the plunger back down, it closes the valve and oil is forced out the other tube to the tip which also has a check valve to keep the oil from being drawn back into the can. I am guessing the the 2 tubes meet inside the can somehow (you can just make out where they meet @3:02 and again @3:33). That's my guess.
