Bel lavoro! Un consiglio... Se usavi una lampadina a led.,facevi piu' luce e durava di piu' la batteria! Ciao!

[@Tag-Traeumer]

@@DrHutOfHandcraft Wer an einer besonderen oder seltenen Glühbirne lange Freude haben will, sollte sie mit Unterspannung betreiben. In der Lampe hier könnte ein Widerstand im Batteriekabel dafür sorgen. 5 % weniger Spannung verdoppelt die Lebensdauer einer Glühbirne, 10 % weniger vervierfacht sie schon, und so weiter. Allerdings sinkt die Lichtausbeute im selben Masse.

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

@@Tag-Traeumer Richtig :)

[@karsten0023]

Saubere Arbeit 👏👍. Die Lampe hast Du wirklich gut hinbekommen. Ich mag es sowieso, wenn man elektrischen Geräten ein neues Leben einhaucht.

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

Danke Karsten, freut mich dass es dir gefallen hat!

[@jclark2752]

Okay… I really dig the Brass trick! Especially how it gives a uniquely nuanced result! It would look Awesome on historic replicas! Very Clever!

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

Thank you so much, glad you liked it!

You carefully preserve pieces of history, this is wonderful! Walter, an eighteenth-century French thinker, said: “He who does not know the past knows neither the present, nor the future, nor himself.”

friend, you really can't imagine how much I would love to have these tools and equipment to restore, it is truly magical to see you resurrect these wonderful tools, congratulations

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

I really appreciate it mate, thank you so much! I also didn’t have all those tools when I started, you don’t necessarily need everything and the tools add up with time and you also can get a lot of stuff second hand. Just start if you like 🙂

[@conscience-commenter]

Outstanding restoration of a quality German tool . I hope someone can use that for many years to come .

[@tommynygaardjensen8398]

​@@DrHutOfHandcraft why do you use all kinds of means first, you can sandblast it right away, then you remove paint and rust in one work step 🙄

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

@@tommynygaardjensen8398 I could but the most important reason not to do that is that there is high possibility of lead in the paint, because it was used back then. Even though I have a suction system on my sandblaster, I don’t want lead paint fly around my workshop. Second it would take longer, because the paint was very persistent. Due to that the blasting medium turns bad much faster.

[@tommynygaardjensen8398]

@@DrHutOfHandcraft it's a hobby you in the small amounts it doesn't matter it's more harmful to use paint remover 🤔

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

@@tommynygaardjensen8398 Using paint stripper in those amounts is definitely not more harmful than sandblasting lead paint if you use the proper proper protection gear, which I do. Please don’t spread wrong information.
