Antique Grocery Store Scale Restoration - A Unique Piece !

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Love that you didn’t over restored and keeps the scale authentic! Big like for that Nicolas 👍

[@deanmacy8291]

I have watched hundreds of restoring videos and that brass plate cleanup was by far the most satisfying sand blasting I've ever seen.

[@wendyclark4574]

Your attention to the little details ❤ It takes me back to watching my dad fix and make things. Thank you for that.😊

[@LadyKatJPhillips]

Wow! Big surprise 😲 with the floral engraving. ⚘️

[@samanthadean1083]

When you sand blasted the bottom plate and that fantastic design appeared!!! So awesome!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@MsSteelphoenix]

The timeless elegance of this piece - the little flourishes like the engraving and the circles in the arm - is all the more lovely when it's revealed. A wonderful piece of work!

[@TapscottJ]

The work you did on the chains was fantastic! So was the rest of the piece. 😊

[@leslienope-unintended8354]

What a simple way to zero the scale! Beautiful piece.

[@elizabethgracia6411]

I enjoy watching these videos. I enjoy watching the items you restore. Keep up the great job.

[@judyrosy]

Love it....I was a little surprised that you didn't blacken the scale demarcation or the engraving on the plate.

[@Shae_Sandybanks]

Same! Still a good job though!

[@OsvaldoGonsa]

Yes, I was hoping that a little bit more work was going to be done to it.

[@kassianekynthia5310]

é que ele não fez para reutilizar e sim para guarder em um museu de restaurações

[@minecraftcamen]

I'm just reviewing all of the restoration videos because when I was little I just skipped everything

[@tyn999]

A unique piece indeed! Liked the plate and the chains!

[@sephalon1]

Whoever made this etched an absolutely gorgeous pattern into the plate... and then left it to his epileptic shop apprentice to put the lines on the measuring gauge.

[@thedarkdane7]

I actually applauded when I finished watching this video. Excellent job!

[@vanessacassidy6846]

All of your restorations are so authentic and well done.

[@mskayla7747]

Nicely done. Saving a piece of history from the scrapheap. 👍

[@piplup10203854]

My favorite part came at the end there when you making that piece with the threads, it's amazing to me how a solid piece of material can be reduced down into that! I love that process it is so cool and very satisfying to see it all turn out good :D

[@OldThingsNeverDie-]

Thank you very much 😉🥰

[@piplup10203854]

@@OldThingsNeverDie- ☺ You're very welcome!

[@hikuro14]

Wow I was surprised at just how much of that scale was made of brass. Each time you sandblasted a part, I was surprised.

[@DonnaMSchmid]

This is one of the most interesting scales I've seen! Very nice!

[@atsunome]

Yay, another fantastic video! Watching this channel late at night is always strangely relaxing in a unique way!

[@lordarbys3676]

I just watch in school, lol

[@mazarinf5130]

I love watching before bed, it's so relaxing!

[@nurmaybooba]

A joy to watch, never a waste of my time to see how you use your time.

[@georgebrown8312]

Marvelous job you did restoring the old scale. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work as usual.

[@Steamboat72]

Beautiful, Simple, and effective. Both the restoration and the scale itself.

[@CrustyRestorations]

Love you kept a bit of patina on the numbers, another great transformation ❤

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

I loved the reveal of the brass on the plate and the parts attached to it. The finished project is beautiful.

[@donaldwycoff4154]

Wonderful work! The chain-link repair was invisible, looked beautiful.

[@vinceianni4026]

Beautiful restoration mister beautifully restored well done

[@lawrencemanning]

The parting lines should be left in tact, as they were out of the factory. Cool restoration. :)

[@gilles2914]

Bonjour, c'est vraiment satisfaisant à regarder mais en plus votre travail est vraiment bien fait. Merci

[@ReenTheBean]

That is gorgeous! I love the chain fix! Great job!👍😊

[@eviehawke]

i love patina and rust (and collect it, in fact). i have to say the restoration is stunning. well done! loved the video. the crude lines on the measurement are particularly delightful. 😻

[@samanthazeiger1553]

My favorite part is always when you file down the casting marks. I appreciate that you clean up the item but you don't remove its history. Truly stellar work.

[@kirdot2011]

I never understood why restoration channels do that. The casting marks were there when the thing was brand new so why put in the time and effort to remove them now?!

[@FlutePlayer777]

What a beautiful scale!!! I love the etching you discovered on the plate! So lovely.

[@andrewgrace4410]

Beautiful restoration, I love your craftsmanship 😊

[@marianthelibrarian2274]

Excellent work - remaking those chain links 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@evilbrat5376]

First time here but not the last. First class work on chain with the brass wire, mending the scale with liquid metal (?) - nice touch. The whole restoration was the best I have seen in a long time. Even the choice of colour for the scale 👍👍👍

[@jollyjapesinnorfolkandsuff2625]

Bravo, Sir! You are a true craftsman ⭐✨

[@EIbereth]

Awesome work. I love this restoration. The effort you put on fixing the chain was amazing. Great work! 👏👏👏👏

[@bedetteb1111]

Breath taking work….. so impressive….. hi from Canada 🇨🇦

[@gonzalotoscano3310]

So much talent on one human being.

[@Thebrokenheart2023]

i love it when you do unique things or old toys. tired of tools lol

[@benjay4571]

Thank god you’re back! No other channel does restorations as good as you! ❤️

[@andycurran9352]

Amazing job again my friend. It looks like a completely different scale. Sending massive love from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@olivier2553]

Bravo la reparation de la chaine a la main!

[@larsl7483]

You haven't posted a video in a while, hope you are OK. Keep up the good work, I miss new videos.

[@johnconnor555]

Wow, you are the man !!! Nobody can't do it better !!!👍👌❤🏆🥇🛠⚙

[@locomocoloco246]

Great editing with the bolt getting smaller!

[@SuperFinGuy]

This scale is pure geometry, thanks for restoring it.

[@christopheferraux2864]

here is a beautiful object, seeing the flowers appear during the sandblasting was a nice surprise

[@MCsCreations]

Amazing, dude! It looks fantastic! 😃 I loved the color! Really well done!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@paulharris5541]

Making that chain must have been long winded? Well done mate 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Scar_does_stuff]

this was surprisingly stunning to watch, your videos are always amazing but watching all the brass come to life was fascinating

[@thedarkdane7]

I gasped out loud when I saw that beautiful pattern on the tray emerge.

[@Jotka_Jawer]

Una nueva magia de restauración de tus habilidades, paciencia y buen ingenio. Admiro tus obras de dar vida a lo perdido y estropeado. Pregunta: ¿Hago música de relajación con guitarra, te gustaría usarla? Mis saludos y agradecimientos.

[@aserta]

FIY, heat the part, then put the oil. You're expending a lot more heat heating it up with oil on than required and while gas is cheap, that can damage the part you're trying to loosen up in some cases. You can also use paraffin, which has a higher seep through coefficient.

[@maturefox1]

... very nice job done! Congrats! 😉🦊

[@kadran3263]

Incredible work!

[@Elnumette]

La classe comme toujours =) j'ai bien aimé l'enchaînement des différentes coupes pour la vis de niveau ! Du boulot de première qualité, c'est magnifique ! ❤

[@Commander_Applejack]

That test at the end was great.

[@29lookingood]

Turned out beautiful👍🏾🇬🇧💙

[@Dysiode]

A little sad not all the holes got a tiny chamfer, but you get a pass for doing such incredible work on the chain! Love it!

[@W4iteFlame]

Hard to believe that cool flower pattern was hidden below all this paint and grime

[@markxl]

What a lovely object - particularly the weighing pan.

[@septiccalling8341]

Outstanding! Great to watch 👍🏻

[@marievegan]

Wow wow wow, what a magician. Congrats, that's impressing. I like the concept of no audio comments, but on this video, there are less written comments, and that a bit of a pity. We don't know if you use a rust removal laser, or if you just paint above it. But awesome video anyway.

[@mikesavad]

always fun seeing the hidden picture under the grime and corrosion. Its like a magic trick.

[@BrunoGiubilei]

I found your channel through Reddit, I've seen all your videos and I was surprised to have a new video! Excellent work, you are very good.

[@pcvtintin]

Fantastic resto!!!

[@diyfireking]

Great work dude.

[@fester73666]

Unique looking scale, very nice restoration 👍

[@chrisraz8046]

Beautiful restoration. What would have been more impressive, would have been restoring it to the accuracy it had.

[@PerfectRestore]

Just super. The restoration is great! The shots in the video are amazing! Thanks, it was nice and interesting to watch. Good luck, bro!!!

[@erictoddw]

Amazing work and perfect editing!

[@oneshotme]

Hope you checked for lead before you worked on it!! I've never seen one like that. Excellent looking restoration and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up 💙Slava Ukraini!! #StopRussia #GloryToTheSoldiers💛

Fantastic job!

Very nice, very nice.

[@tomswindler64]

A very ornate piece to be a scale,I think,curious what it was used in type of business.great restoration,put lot of work into it.very, very nice continue on with your quest.kudos 😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@henrikgrigor384]

Nice work . I wish I could give you more than one LIKE 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@DrRestoration]

Beautiful job 😊

[@HyliRelaxed]

I love the techniques used to remove and restore. My one question is in all your videos, to loosen a nut, you use oil and a torch vice PB Blast or other solutions designed to lessen a stuck bolt. Is there a particular reason for using the oil and torch beside thermal expansion of the nut to loosen it. Great content!

[@Mujaki]

Looks lovely, but I wonder how accurately it could be calibrated. The attachments do look adjustable.

[@larrykelly2838]

Great restoration

[@ataqureshi477]

Excellent work

[@Drankoii]

Great result!

[@JunkyardBashSteve]

for most of these videos I'm spending time trying to figure out what metals they made each individual part from; steel, aluminum, brass, copper, bronze etc. I love how each one looks vastly different once the restoration is complete.

[@xcoder1122]

I'm not an expert on restorations but I've seen you using oil and a burner quite often to losen rusty screws. Apparently this method seem to work but could be an issue in a place where heat is a no-go. From my experience what works extremely well for rusty screws is WD-40 and no heat is required. WD-40 is a creep oil, it's super fluid and flows into the smallest cracks. Many people use it for lubrication but that's actually not what it is meant for as it won't stay in place and isn't even a good lubricant. It was designed to displace water and flow into the thinnest scratches. It can also be used as a cleaner to displace old, sticky oil or silicone before applying new lubrication. Yet if you want constant lubrication, you need an oil that is thicker and will stay in place for a very long time or silicone or PTFE spray.

[@connieholley1124]

Wash surprised when the base cleaned and revealed a design and chain was gold toned.

[@Mandy-wc7ou]

your videos are amazing, hope you post more soon

[@bobbagadonuts4365]

Fantastic work! Maybe he did it off-camera, but was the paint tested for lead?

[@carolbuzelim]

I was shocked that the scale is actually gold but is gorgeous

[@KindredBrujah]

Ha, was just wondering if it works at around the 16:00 mark. Never fail to disappoint, much obliged for another great video!
