Antique Saw Blade Sharpener [Restoration]

[@chrisdreyer8747]

My father in lay was a machine repairman... the things he could do with a hopeless case were amazing... making missing or broken parts on a mill and lathe for machines made in the 1920s,30s without plans or parts lists... he would have loved your vids as much as l do, miss him

[@bonzaibob2000]

You just crack me up. I have small cell lung cancer and I need a good chuckle once in a while thanks

[@HandToolRescue]

Thank you!

[@jamesfreeman2980]

Robert Peters sorry to hear about your cancer. Will pray for you

[@ramosel]

"Olive Drab" was widely abundant and dirt cheap after WWI, My grandfather bought hundreds of 55 gallon drums of it surplus for his hardware and paint stores. All of his tools and delivery trucks were Olive Drab. Very cool tool, glad you have preserved it.

[@seabee12333]

The camo paint was OD, the second coat was a little more forest service or WPA green

[@thomaspaine4670]

Haha I was going to comment "Hey, guy. That's OD green," but you beat me to it.

[@magnum1165]

Wish I could find a mechanic that is a good and meticulous as you restoring tools for my 1964 Chevy Impala, I'd be very happy

[@mtmchenry]

Never seen a saw blade sharpener like that, pretty neat. Always enjoy your videos.

[@1stTimeVenture]

i think this is the only channel where i have watched every video..

[@blacksheep25251]

Not only are your videos therapy for some of us, but you are also demonstrating the engineering that went into these tools. With the internet, you are now preserving the history that millions have used to build their future that we have today. Thank you!

[@thugasaurusrex6004]

I love seeing these videos... I work in I.T. so I'm having to look at a computer program all day, so it's nice to see some good old machinery being taken apart and made beautiful again.

[@rodolphogeuterro8961]

Only one thing I would add to the restoration-you should have baked the paint in the oven! it does wonders for hardening the finish. My mum had a double oven which meant I could do valve covers in the top and swing arms in the bottom-all before mum came home! Look forward to the next one.

[@johnoldonekanole602]

Who ever invented that was a genius so was the person that built the prototype , AND you sir are a Genius for restoring and figuring out how it works. Thanks for sharing.

[@richarderickson8840]

You do amazing work, It breaks my heart to realize how cheap and flimsy tools are made in this day and age, Those tools were built with craftsmanship.

[@ianrandell9763]

It's good that the blade sharpener is painted in the original colour. Good work.

[@91najwa]

I'm having a bad week. Seeing your video notification make me feel much better.

[@BRICEN18]

[@fixt100]

one of the better tools for sure that i have seen restored, very interesting.

[@tiggerkzn]

There is something strangely mesmerizing about watching your videos..... Is it just me? Thank you for saving these tools that would surly be lost to the scrap pile if not for you. RIP scraper.... your sacrifice will be remembered....

[@valveman12]

First time I have seen a manual blade sharpener. Excellent restoration.

[@jodidavis6595]

This was a strange tool. But I will tell you after watching many many of your videos..I have learned how to hold/handle a screw driver. Most ppl would say "Really lady"? The top part of the handle seems to stay in your palm allowing you to keep going till the screw was in or out. I'd always held it with handle resting in between my thumb and pointer then always having to stop and move it back up. Father was a principal and not a handy man lol soooo I wasn't ever shown or taught right. But thanks to watching these restore rescue video I've learned a great deal.

[@DarkEvilFoxy]

im not much good at stuff like this but i always find watching someone repair or restore tool like this awsome i dont know why

[@daveschannel1466]

This guy always find cool and old tools to restore.

[@jim1407]

Back in the late 60’s I spent my summers in Orlando, my sister and brother-in-law owned a tool rental business and my job was sharpening saw blades for the carpenters that were building Disney world,

[@PJGalati]

I love the engineering in these old tools. I wish we could get half that today in what's available. This was build to be serviced.

[@rogerhaag9069]

I am learning so many techniques from your shows even though I am pretty good around a shop..love to take apart things to see what they look like on the inside!

[@43painter]

Marvelously done, Monsieur ! I always fancy video's where the original colour is respected and reapplied.

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Wonderful job restoring that tool. Something I learned on another wood working channel is that brown paper bag paper makes a great burnishing "grit" for doing fine work like that maker's plate on the tool.

[@colinaskey9777]

I think 5hat is the most complicated machine you have tackled so far,an ingenious piece of machinery for sharpening saw blades,our did a first rate job on it a usual, and I'll give you my 5 ☆ rating

[@prasadsk4188]

When we are watching this video, it's looks very easy but working on it is very hard and tough. Great work keep it up. With regards 😎

[@donh01965]

Thank you for the GREAT videos! The production is awesome. I grew up taking my dads stuff apart in the garage as a kid, I had to know how everything worked...and most times the stuff never worked again after mystery springs flew away. Restoring was a great hobby before arthritis. I envy you.

[@HandToolRescue]

+Don Hopkinson Thank you!

[@jamestralston]

I really enjoy your editing style and, of course, your fantastic sense of humor. I was expecting the theme music from “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” when you drew your WD40 from your holster! Oh, and the hot melt glue on the Vise Grip jaws - that one is a keeper for sure! Thanks.

[@HandToolRescue]

+James Ralston haha, thank you.

[@randyelviss4801]

Thanks for all your hard work in getting this gorgeous little tool back to it's original state! Very impressive and so nice to see old technology and it's workings. Cheers

[@SilvieFox]

i use to use one of these when i was a kid, was my great grandfathers, he taught and had me sharpen all his saw (and chain saw) blades when i was a little kid because i did a better job then him due to his arthritis, still a skill i use till this day and has saved me thousands over the years

[@dr.haroldweinstein5157]

Does one typically spend thousands on blade sharpening? Am I doing life wrong?

[@jamie66233]

I've watched many of your R&R's and I must say you do some very nice work! Also seeing some of these projects is really cool to see how tools were really built! You must have a great memory to k ow where everything goes! You must be taking pics no!!?? Lol thanks for the entertainment!!

[@predmaster]

Oh yeah! A really old tool restoration again. this kind of videos are my favorite.

[@kengamble8595]

Fairly complicated little device, lot of hours went into thinking on how to make it ! Nice to see it back in service ! Great job! Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

[@grimreaper3526]

back in the day it was about making a product that would last a lifetime... unlike today where most are made to fail after a few uses so you go buy another....

[@kengamble8595]

Grim Reaper You got no argument with me on that !

[@scottmclennan6114]

Like you, I often look at some of incredibly complicated devices he renews and think how much time some bloke put into thinking through all the various steps and components that would be needed to make each tool work.

[@kengamble8595]

Scott McLennan Yeah, I guess I tend to think like that because I've made many of my tools and know what it takes to get something working right! Lots of hours spent on one apparatus or another because I couldn't find anything to do what I needed it to do!

[@adrianacanzano6304]

I am amazed as to how you remember where each nut & bolt goes when you put it all back together. Very impressive.

[@HandToolRescue]

+Adriana Canzano ;)

[@stephenmerck5931]

Your attention to details are impeccable my friend.

[@GasNBullets]

Love the complex mechanics of this tool. Im sure in a production shop this thing was a massive help. I have a couple things sitting around I might send for you to fix and sell and put the money toward other projects...

[@aserta]

With some modifications and replacement of the holding system to bring it back to original spec, this would be useful in any shop. Carbide tipped blades are generally used 10% of their potential then either used and blamed as useless or simply thrown out because people don't know you can either sharpen them or how to sharpen them. Just last year, i was going to pick up some iron from the scrap yard, and found 30, used, but in good condition blades. Guy tells me it happens quite often.

[@GettingNervous]

Very nice. I also like to rescue old stuff such as mopeds, machines, tools etc. Excellent work Sir.

[@MrVolksbeetle]

Quite possibly one of the most satisfying, awesome and, funny channels on YT. I love it.

[@HandToolRescue]

Thank you!

Hot glue padding in the visegrips! I learn a new trick every time I watch. Thanks so much.

[@paddypoolfc3579]

What an amazing piece of kit. Kudos to the guy who thought that up.

[@JoeChillius]

I cannot find another channel like yours I've almost watched all your videos and am super excited when you post videos keep it up

[@HandToolRescue]

+Joseph Eubank Thank you!

[@Justin-hm4xu]

i love how every things so dirty then you see the nice clean polished threads on the bench vice

[@harlech2]

Ahhhh that green... brings back memories. My family had a business for @ 75 years that did locksmithing and safe work, as well as saw sharpening as well as gunsmithing and a half dozen other different things. I remember seeing a sharpener just like this one in the sharpening area, and it was the same color. Apparently, after WWI there was a LOT of 'Army Green' paint left over. Not sure i would call it olive drab. :P. It got used on EVERYTHING. Odd thing about the stuff was how versatile it was. There were additives to make it glossy and even give it a rough crinkle finish. We had to VERY old machines circa 1935 that were done in that color, one crinkle, the other I think was glossy to begin with.

[@uberism81]

Love the trick with the hot snot and vise grips! Great video!

[@Ajaxaxxess]

every morning ive been watching 1 of your videos. Coffee cigrits and tool resto! Great work and great videos, not a bunch of yammering bs! well done man!

[@fallenhunter7384]

love to see old tools get a new life.. even if that life is to sit on a shelf and look good. I enjoy doing this type of work myself. However most of the time, what I restore gets used. (esp old tool boxes, and similar), my ex wife used to grip about the fact all my toolboxes were painted blue

[@kerosene447]

i think its the best restoration so far. Please keep going!

[@majorpayne5289]

👍Great work! Thx for sharing these videos. I rescued ($150) a 1942 WALKER TURNER floor model heavy drill press not long ago. It runs & is in nice condition except the spindle bearings (noisy) are bad. Trying to locate the bearings now. 👍 (could use the help locating, please) At any rate thank you again. I really enjoyed the videos✌️

My friend! Thank you for your video! You need a small lathe in the workshop! He will relieve the headache with things such as transition bushings and other spare parts that can not be found in stocks. And if there is a milling machine, you will forget about problems. Hello from Russia!

[@kaycox5555]

Marvelous restoration - thanks for sharing and filming.

[@interistapersempreamala41]

you are a great continuous so I like your videos so much I hope one day I can also do restorations like you good

[@eddylonergan142]

Hello from Holland.There is a liquid masking, acrylic base.it protects moving parts and parts you don't wish to be sprayed.it dry's quick with assistance of a hair dryer even quicker.I used it when spraying custom helmets.motorbikes instead of taping off.it peels off and you can also cut in a tight straight line.saves a lot of time and tape.

[@flashlightbug]

I love all of your videos. The rust removal is my favorite part. It's so satisfying.

[@thomaslevy2119]

Instant soft jaw pliers! Great idea. I will steal it. Thanks!

[@voiceofreason5916]

Love the maneuver with the hot glue on the vise grips!

[@Bl4ckD0g]

This is awesome. I know alot of people say you should never restore antiques, but then I feel it's pointless to have them. Especially if they can't perform the designed fumction anymore.

[@nemo9049]

I like your job. I'm relaxing watching your video

[@mjallenuk]

How many more projects like this can you possibly have. I like old tools but I've not seen a fraction of the things you restore!

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

WD40 is a Water Displacer, not a penetrating lubricant, and not even a good thin lubricant. Save it for after completion to protect items from moisture damage.. use real penetrating oil for disassembly. Love your work, nice to see another item preserved and operating for generations to come!

[@leandroquinteros5823]

your channel is really cool man. i just discovered it and have subbed. im the same type of nutcase... i see an old tool that anyone in their right mind would just leave in the junk pile and will spend way more time than it is ever worth it to re-furbish it. its not the use of the tool that i enjoy so much as it is the satisfaction of repairing it and an appreciation for the mechanical, (as opposed to electronic), solutions our grand/great grandfathers came up with for what we all consider "modern" tools. lol... those old cats had it going ON!! cheers :-D
