Extremely Rusted Fruit Press - Broken Handle

I restore a rusty 1800's fruit smasher. This antique kitchen tool has multiple uses like meat sausage stuffer. This kitchen tool has a vintage strainer for smashing fruit into juice. There was lots of rust, but this restoration project had an amazing success.

Enterprise Manufacturing Co was founded in the 1864 and was located on the corner of Dauphin, 3rd, and American Streets Philadelphia...remained in business until 1956 when it was bought by Silex Co. It was a big Company!... This Item was used for pressing sausage, fruit, lard and apples. Date on this item would be around 1876....Thanks for this Restoration! Its nice to see something from my home town come back to life!

Thanks for the info.

[@jameswilliams9655]

We found one of these at a garage sale and used it to start our food business making home style Philippine sausage. It is a reliable machine but has been replaced with a modern stainless steel press. It is a part of the decor in the shop today to remind us of how we began. I love it's rugged character and we get many comments from our clients about it. Great job restoring it.

[@user-ml3hl6vr4t]

As a kid in 60’s and 70’s someone in my hometown had one and would sometimes loan it for some of the sausage. Mid 70’s I got a deer and borrowed it myself to make most of my buck into mixed sausage. I dutifully paid the loan in natural casing sausage-I bought casing. After I got married, my father in law and his brother owned one. We bought out the uncle and brought it home to use, FIL could ask for it whenever he wanted. After he passed it became solely ours. Ours is missing the pierced drum. I’ve been trying to find a good image of the artwork, it’s a little different but original, that’s on the front. Linked to your video, as I need to do some restoration of ours and wish to continue using it.

[@lifechangingbeats5151]

You prepped that weld beautifully on that handle!

[@tymz-r-achangin]

This Enterprise press isnt just a "Fruit Press" This was also made by the manufacture as a sausage stuffer. Me and my husband have the same press and bought the original attachments used for sliding your sausage casings onto the spout at the bottom of the press. My husband uses it for making our deer sausage. On the spout, you will find 2 tangs/tabs which the attachments lock onto them

I do love the more in-depth videos with so many pieces of the project; it helps me to appreciate the restoration hobby much more. Well done and keep the videos coming!

Very nice work as always. One small detail. I noticed you used washers. So many videos show someone doing a new paint job then messing it up cranking down on a nut or bolt and chipping the paint. It annoys me.😆 Thanks for using washers.

Well worth the effort. The rust is mostly superficial, and the press looks substantial. My relatively new German one doesn't look as robust. Sigh, I know envy is a deadly sin, but your workshop!

[@earnierosenow9834]

just a question regarding the broken handle, why are people not seeing the obvious solution and just recasting a new one= it was cast at one time so why not now =casting is not that hard to do for simple items like this ?

[@AhmedAlBoraie]

nice one.. but there's a cap missing that covers the outlet of juice.

[@bluesfella]

I think overall this is a good effort, but did you put it together without a single bit of grease for the moving parts? It pains me to see those gears going together dry. And there is an oil hole, did you add any oil? Maybe you did those things off camera, but I think a lot of us would rather see that than the vice-slapping bit. Keep learning and doing, though! I will still be watching!

[@richardclark7812]

We made sausage with one of those that had a tube on the discharge for many a year. I was the one who cranked it. Lol.

why didn't you use superglue or epoxy resin to reattach the handle? I knew welding would be used, but I didn't expect you to grind away a part.

[@bengrace]

Lovely job! What brand/colour did you use on the wooden base?

[@mikeball2949]

Nice work. Just curious, what state are you in?

[@specialservicesequipment393]

Welding cast iron isn't easy, but a stick welder with a graphite fluxed rod for cast iron would be much better, and using a heat gun to preheat the iron handle to around 300 deg F. will get good results.

[@bluesfella]

Yeah, I was worried that it would snap off again quickly. I don't know that you can get decent penetration on cast iron with a Mig welder?

[@specialservicesequipment393]

@@bluesfella you really can't get the best weld on cast iron with a mig. You really need a SMAW (STICK WELDER) WITH a rod made for cast iron, regular DC (NOT REVERSE).

[@fd4294]

AWESOME!!! What is the name of your food safe paint please? And thanks for sharing!

[@dl200010]

Anything made to come into contact with food should use all food safe paint, even on the areas that are not meant to come into contact with food. Food will eventually come into contact with that part.

[@Leo-ct9pm]

The juice comes in contact with the green paint in this video.

You do such good restorations, and your videos are very creative. But please - clean up your vise!

[@oneshotme]

Best way to improve your wielding is to burn some rods or in your cast wire. That the only way to get better at it. I was a wielder before my back messed up on me that caused me to not be able to work since I was 24 and 55 now. So always take care of your back because I'm in pain 24/7 365

[@olskool3967]

why would you file out the natural cast marks and paint the gears white?

[@dandiehm8414]

File out the cast marks I understand. Perhaps the gears were painted with food safe paint incase any paint flaked off by the gears grinding together?
