Hitachi Koki, I worked there 30 years ago. Thanks for your restoration.

Friend of the Earth, saving another quality tool that others would scrap or add to a landfill.Great fulfillment in hearing the grinder purr like a well-fed kitten! Only a true craftsman straightens a shaft with one perfectly placed hammer blow!

This restauration is also a big respect to those engineers who made such practicals tools. Thank you for them.

You are like Hand tool rescue. No obnoxious music. No grinding through the metal.

[@jasonhull2163]

God bless the people that appreciate old tools and keep Hitachi and Makita running in Japan. Those brands are extremely popular there. People need to look at tool restoration like this. "The tool served you a long and hard life and paid for itself 100 times over. Show some appreciation to what little good craftsmanship we have left, return the favor to the tool. Give it a rebuild."

[@manonamountain]

Worth the effort, as older tools and machinery were built to last by craftspeople. If quality like this is or was available today, you'd be paying a premium to purchase it.

First one showed missing parts. Second one was complete. It's a working bench grinder kzbin.infoUgkxxC8HPnl24fu0XhMU_nbmWNEUoK1RMHXk . One thing I like alot is that it's surprisingly quiet. I don't feel like I'm sacrificing any rpms or power for the quietness either. All in all it's a very nice machine. No vibration whatsoever.

[@thomasklugh4345]

Jesus! All those parts! I'd finally get it back together, but then think, "Wait. Why do I have a dozen extra parts left over?" 😧 Cool video. Nice job!

This makes me happy to see a Hitachi power tool being brought back to life. I personally prefer Hitachi over other brands. My coworkers have tried to make fun of my Hitachi tools yet they still run strong as there DeWalt and Milwaukee stuff breaks and burns up.

[@grendelum]

Funny story, back in the naughties I was doing tv repair and one of the first Philips flatscreens came my way and needed a new _”light engine”..._ 246 screws of 4 different types later the part was swapped... despite my best efforts the thing worked like a champ with over a hundred screws left over.

[@garrettrector3953]

I was told "I'm curious enough to take it apart skilled enough to put it back together and sneaky enough to hide the extra parts when I'm done" lol

[@thumperman8490]

Use a mag tray to hold all the bits as they come off the unit, also, cover the table with a thick towel, so if you drop a small part on the table it will get caught in the material and not skid onto the floor and go down a crack in the floor boards. It happens!

[@dilshah]

If you can't remember where the parts came from, you can use a muffin baking tin, egg crate, etc. number the compartments, and make a list as you go: "#1 screws from grinding wheel cover, #2 name plate screws, etc." Then just reassemble in reverse order.

If you are going to do more restos, a small investment in media blasting and powder coating will save you lots of time and result in a more durable coating job. In addition, you can use powder coat primer to fill the pitting.
