[@Dmaaaain]

You are making pure art!! Love the fact you know the balance in restoring things and not just replacing everything. Many KZbin make videos about restoration projects and when you watch them they just replace many things and it looks like something that came out of a machine. Your projects has the soul of the object and the looks of how it looked when it got made! Craftsmanship beyond what most people in this world can do!

[@roseblite6449]

I love how you used the previous restored 'wet stone' for sharpening your tools. It shows that these restorations are jot just show pieces, but fully function and are used. An Avril is just too cute, an such a wonderful helper.

[@roseblite6449]

@Vulpes I live an work on a farm in the U.S. We don't throw anything that can be useful away, we reuse everything we can. One of my sisters, who used to live on the farm, threw a lot of non-working equipment away. I've been going through the bone pile (stuff she threw away in a pit) an refurbishing quite a few things. Gives me something to do during the winter months when I can't get into the field. Working on a wheel barrow currently, bit rusty an wood needs replacing, an missing some parts but shouldn't be too hard to fix up once missing parts that I have on order come in.

[@williamstyers4264]

Watching you finish shaping the handles with a drawknife took me back to watching my grandfather use one. He was an old-time carpenter and woodworker and I still have some of his tools including a drawknife.

[@Iyzdor]

Everytime Avril makes an appearance it is like seeing your favorite character of a show arrive.

[@LatitudeNorth]

Great restoration. Nice to see old school hand tools being used. Excellent crafting!

[@a-ls6333]

That's now my favourite restoration of yours. As others have said, your channel is the best. No fancy gimmicks, just good old fashioned, time tested skills. Brilliant stuff!

[@MommytoConnor09]

Honestly this is asmr for I have severe insomnia and since I’ve started watching the restoration videos it’s been so relaxing that it’s curing my insomnia

[@Philipasu]

Some kitty timestamps: 6:48: Daring introduction of the orange fluff 16:32 Inspector Avril on duty I wonder what happened since one wheel looked like it was bit by something (or someone). Thanks for the video! God bless you!

[@Andramelach]

Among all the excellence of this procedure, seeing you use a draw knife instead of a spoke shave was the icing on the cake. Excellent technique.

[@ProtonOne11]

I really like the stuff you restore on your channel, and with how much care an precision you try to bring the tools back to life, preserving as much of the original as possible. Grew up on a small farm in Switzerland, and a lot of things you show on your channel were used back then and remind me of my childhood.

[@wellbbq]

Avril's supervision is a must!!!

[@453421abcdefg12345]

Another one saved ! I have a similar sack barrow languishing in my barn waiting for the treatment, I never thought of using Plane ,(Platanus) wood, there is a lot of it growing here and it is very hard, just right for this purpose, the finished job looks really nice! Well done! This will outlast the chinese made things in Bricolage several times over! Chris B.

[@garyfontenot2786]

So, is there not a platform on the bottom? There were slotted ears at the bottom I thought were for accepting different platforms for different objects.

You are one of the few people on these types of channels, that i have actually seen preheat before welding.

[@junesterner7984]

I have to say, I look forward to the point wherein our society comes to make more use of tools such as the ones you restore. Human labor and simple engineering will be our salvation.

[@Ksweetpea]

I must say, the restored grindstone in my favorite recurring character

[@aceallenk]

Beautiful ''again.'' Now that was another enjoyable exhibit of restoring something that was a fixture in our barn when I was really young, and that was many moons ago. It's a true joy watching a person with the time, tools, and knowledge to use them. To revive those item that have been placed on the wayside and have fallen into serious state of repair, to be spared and given an even longer life now that it's recognized there value. Your museum of collectables must be awesome and packed. I tip my hat to you Sir.

[@jamesfield5346]

Your woodworking craftsmanship is beyond amazing. I could watch you crafting things all day. Love your channel

I'm with ya. It's quite cool how often these lads are able to save so much of the wood. This was impressively too far gone.

I never understand why people give the thumbs down to videos like this. If you don’t like then bugger off and let those of us who enjoy it watch in peace.

[@ianallen2]

Finally someone who knows how to restore an item with metal and not polish it to a mirror finish. Restored it to how it was and not over restored.

[@clarklindquist8137]

Looks like something found in the corner of an old barn, long forgotten about. Nice restoration job.

[@samanthadean1083]

I love how Avril helped test the integrity of the new handles!!! LOL!!!

[@robt2151]

Excellent; The particular combination of wood work and metal work on a transport project reminded me of Engels Coach Shop.

[@patjohnson3100]

An exceptional restoration. I wish I had your woodworking skills. One thing I like about your projects is that you will do all you can to save the original materials including wood. Obviously that wasn't possible in this case. The wood was so rotten it was spongy. Looked like it could barely hold together. You made the replacement work look easy. Great work on the metal, too. Thank you

[@chipspencer8040]

You did a fantastic job on the complete overhaul on this hand cart, great job. Loved watching it come back from the dead.
