FPU Bison Vise Resto'. Cause Baby I'm Worth it.

[@kameljoe21]

Let just be clear this is one of the better restorations channels for the fact that he can take someone that is pretty much worthless or desgined to be damaged and turn it in to some art. The fact that he spent that much time fixing the logo is truly awesome. One of these days I might get around to doing something like this just for " because I can " reasons

[@infinity4dead]

see my mechanics channel

[@bradleyland]

This Old Tony sense of humor + My Mechanics levels of restoration talent. This channel is going places.

[@siddhartaperezrodriguez3238]

Exactly . But no one beats This Old Tony's humor

[@otterconnor942]

This is a middle tier skill level for a restoration channel, probably on the better half of the tier. But the cringe levels of workmanship aren't up to the 98% cringless viewing that my mechanics has, as even he cuts corners. My background is in aviation repair so if an overhaul isn't done to the degree of how it should have left the factory, it's cringy. My mechanics has issues with finishing the parts. Kilo has issues with finishing parts, to a lesser degree, and has issues with quality of replacement parts. It's no dig at kilo as there are very few channels that are better, but he hasn't broken out to the levels of my mechanics

[@akafrosty6175]

Man, for some reason, the polished hardware is just so satisfying for me.

[@Punisher_19]

Literally the type of Restoration channel I was actually looking for, who uses the old parts and tries the most to repair rather than other restoration channels who just purchase new parts and replace those. I mean that's not restoration . Good luck 🤞

[@noisjack2114]

I'm new to your channel, I am not dissapointed with what I see. Seeing the amount of care and respect you give these items you work on, down to the bolt, is just breathtaking. My father taught me a good lesson when I was younger, "if you treat the tools without care, you will be creating future hardships for you". Thank you for the content.

[@ApprenticeGM]

I am an expert on KZbin tool restoration videos and can confidently say this is the best vice restoration I've seen! Beautiful job mate - thanks for sharing.

[@ModernPrimate]

I love your videos but my favorite part is the cat. I love the little "pop" when he disappears.

[@frankierzucekjr]

Or when it was loving on the vice lmao, the music.

[@rosscos8246]

This dude Kilo is LEGIT! Watching his stuff scratches my diagnosed OCD itch. Could literally watch for hours. Funny AF too! Thx man

[@sann1n]

Awesome, or as Polish people would say: Zajebiście! Greetings from Poland!

[@KILORESTORATION]

Greetings from America Lukasz!

[@VitalyShalman]

I am Russian and we say it similarly: Заебись!

[@howardgould]

These videos are some of the only videos that I don't mind watching more than once. It's amazing every time.

[@williamsanders2578]

Wow. That's one of the most beautiful works of art I have ever seen! I almost couldn't bring myself to use that as a tool ever again.

[@DaemonDriver]

I said it before and I will say it again - watching your videos is like a meditation for me! Thank you again!

[@elmarlang1856]

You are a Wizard! This restoration is nothing short of remarkable! It turned out so beautiful that it should become a museum piece so that everybody could marvel at your ingenuity and skill from turning a piece of junk into a fine piece of machinery. Absolutely first class job along with fantastic videoing!

[@jakobperkin7417]

I started restoring antique axes a few months ago as a hobby and your videos have definitely given me many ideas! Thanks for the great content!

[@Trent_3320]

Underrated channel 😓

[@thomasthompson6799]

Beautiful restoration to better than original condition. A real work of art and useful tool. Excellent work!

[@Hockeyguy8541]

I think the jump cuts during the degreasing is my favorite part. Just watching the water turn more and more brown as the parts get cleaner is satisfying to me

[@CarlosHernandez-uj3im]

I have watched many vise restorstions but I had very bad luck on this because I saw yours first and you set my expectations very, very high. You are my favorite restoration youtuber, keep it up man! Awesome work, I'm really waiting for more of your videos!

[@BeardedSinner]

I'm scared that I'll have to wait another few months just to get another one of you're fantastic restorations vids. Unbelievable content man, keep it up!

[@KILORESTORATION]

I’m trying to get somethings in place to speed it up, Luke. Thanks for the encouragement!

[@McWhatevs]

@@KILORESTORATION Can live with the wait with the quality of the output. Gotta say, I love the effort you put in when polishing parts, no 100-240 grit then straight to the buffer, gotta got through the 400, 600, 800, 1200 and 2000 first

[@nick-v7q9z]

I love your videos because there’s a lot more effort that goes into these restorations without a lathe and media blaster, but the end result is just as good.

[@Zenithstudios5274]

Man you do amazing work! Your channel is definitely underrated. You should post more videos. With your skills and production quality you would definitely pass the rest of the so called restoration channels.

[@KILORESTORATION]

Thanks for the encouragement, Mark!

[@nicolajdypping5669]

I have seen many restoration channels in my time. But this man, just have so much attention to every little detail! i love the work man. A new follow from me here in Denmark - Keep up the good work brother

[@khaledholman5791]

That's what I call taking care of your tools...Beautiful...

[@williamtheconqueror4563]

I don’t think there is anyone on KZbin that achieves the level of detail or finish that you do. I’ve watched many of those other channels. Hope you can find lots more to work on in the future. It’s especially enjoyable to see the parts that aren’t polished get a mirror-like shine. Thanks for taking the time to do these projects and then put them up for us to see.

[@jyesucevitz]

the romantic music insert with the cat was perfect. still smiling typing this.

[@welmoepics]

Underrated aspect of these restorations is the camera work. Well done showing off all the nooks and crannies.

[@BigRigTrig]

As an avid Doug Demuro fan, THISSSSS, was a welcome surprise

[@cmarano]

There are a lot of vise restoration vids out there. Let me say, your attention to detail and care is on another level. Great job. Great vid.

[@larrykelly2838]

Great restoration, looks brandnew.

[@AJRestoration]

Excellent Restoration Kilo. We are big fans.

[@lordieshepherd]

Not only inspiring and clever, highly entertaining style as well. Love the sense of humour, cat, and the work you do. It's let me into doing similar now so thanks Kilo!

[@dwest320]

So much attention to detail. You make the tedium fun to watch and the results are astonishing.

[@fededamian]

You really step up the restoration game, this content is absolutely top notch in every aspect! Amazing job!

[@mickyboughner1232]

Outstanding! This is some of the best restoration on the Tube! Keep up the quality work!

[@MrBee-lf4ym]

I like how you don't have a huge amount of expensive tools whilst carrying out this fantastic restoration work - gives me realistic inspiration! Although I do look forward to you buying new tools in future videos! Keep up the great work - just discovered you today and binged almost all the videos. Thank you for the good content and the genuine humour.

[@tbelding]

Harbor Freight tools to repair much better quality tools.

[@MaxHardcoreSLOVAKIA]

yes !!! another perfect restoration. and the best helper Mr.Cat .

[@daniellyddon2118]

when you cut the rod off it stressed me the hell out, but i will begrudgingly admit the new one you made looks pretty good...

[@KILORESTORATION]

Thanks Daniel! A part of me wanted to leave the original handle on, I admit.

[@JPWRana]

I felt bad too. He could have welded it back together and not have to create a new part.

[@badcopnodonut08]

Downside is; once metal starts bending, even if you straighten it, it weakens the structure and becomes easier to bend again.

[@corin164]

I didn't quite understand why the OEM didn't use hardened steel for the handle. They had to know that someone would eventually use a cheater bar on the handle.

[@Yelwas]

Awesome, you really do go to town on these restorations projects. BTW I once applied grease to the conical face on the swivel base, never again, these faces should be clean, you need friction to lock to swivel... But I guess you're trying to prevent rust, on a ornamental vice.

[@SouthOfGate]

Wow this was absolutely delicious! Loving the segment rolling titles, the remarks, the lighting the sound AND your skill. I was hoping you’d remount it at your brother’s workshop as a surprise! (p.s. - you are welcome = you’re welcome)

[@dantizzle00]

I picked up a handful of -very- useful techniques and ideas that will help me with a few things I'm in the process of fixing. Stellar video and beautiful restoration! 🍻

[@jamalhussain9162]

Really good work you did with this restoration project. would have never thought about using washings on the 3 on each side nuts and a very interesting way to make a handle for the vise while not having a lathe as most of these vise restoration KZbinrs have at their disposable.

[@oppanheimer]

I love these Polish vises, and what a beautiful restoration. Looks too good to use.

[@DreadnoughtLeather]

Outstanding work. They say machine stripping paint builds character.

[@McWhatevs]

I've watched this just again now (only twice in total). There are so many of these sorts of channels now. My Mechanics is obviously the big daddy, but yours is my favourite to date. I enjoy that you restore them not to original condition, but well beyond the point of functionality to be oversized man-shed jewellery. The mirror finishes. Not shiny finishes. Not extremely well polished, but mirror finishes. Totally impractical for a working tool, but who cares. Chip Foose cars aren't daily drivers; they're automotive artistic statements. I mean, just look at those jaws when you're done with them! I love the colour of this finish too. In short, in case you can't tell, I think this is superb!

[@crimi984]

Greetings from Poland😎👍🇵🇱

[@KILORESTORATION]

I was hoping someone from Poland would watch this. Greetings from America, Rafal T !

[@843292]

Very nice work! Also, it was great to see how organized your brother's shop is. Gave me some good ideas!

[@jakeh9619]

I did a vice a month ago. It’s come out well but not as well as this, I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to cut the 90 year old handle off though. It’s a Record Auto Vice. Beautiful piece of kit.

[@delaney3722]

Absolutely love your restorations! I have an old vise sitting around and I think I’m going to give it a try.

[@accordinglyryan]

This is literal art.

[@RupanagudiRaviShankar]

Very relaxing to watch the entire restoration process. Great sir 👍

[@rohanmarsh593]

The shaft collar vice handles are a really nice idea

[@otekrec]

You did a great job with fairly simple tools and ingenuity. Nice! Got my subscription.

[@jimjenkins673]

Just brilliant and hysterical at well.

[@churlepatakha]

You don't leave any stone unturned, so to say. Very meticulous and flawless restoration.

[@beasaboy14]

You must be rapidly running out of old rusty things to restore! Jokes aside your channel is quality and I forward to see what you do next.

[@srtbull]

There is something incredibly calming about what you do. You do amazing work.

[@matthewhopkins666]

What number grit abrasive does the cat go up to when honing it's claws?

[@skavist]

I honestly don't care much for restoration, but I think you're funny. I enjoy your videos; it's relaxing watching you do all the work.

[@expatmoose]

This is gonna be good, not watched it yet but I just know it👍🏻😉

[@daniellyddon2118]

it's seeming like you're right

[@KILORESTORATION]

Good to see you back, Expat Moose! Thanks for the vote of confidence.

[@nopenada3449]

It's not enough that you do such amazing restorations, you had to go and add very high production quality, as well. Ok, I'm hooked.

[@jkrende]

I Legitimately laughed out loud at the "Doug score".

[@BobbyKinstle]

I have an old rusty vice from that era. Now I want to restore it. Thanks for adding another project to my list.

[@chuckclark9464]

I love the look of chrome looking metal polish metal and wood that is just plain clear coated not stained. Nothing anybody cares

[@07h]

Unmatched attention to detail + occasional comic relief, I love it. Thank you, sir, your work is the quintessential reason KZbin exists. Glad I found your channel.

[@Madshadowgolem]

You're welcome. 😉

[@billthecat129]

Oh good.... I'm not the only one...

[@blairmarchand7572]

Masterful. It's very pleasant to see another tool saved from ruin and to made to look to good!

[@willaiml]

Keep stealing your brothers change and you’ll have the tools you need to make it easier...lol beautiful craftsmanship with your limited tools, your brothers got to be a happy guy!!

[@AlexanderElse]

After watching your videos i was inspired to restore a wood and metal bench. I had the same experience with poly strip pads on a drill - it's useless. I bought an angle grinder with poly strip pads and knotted wire brushes and those 2 worked great to take off the rust.

[@PatrickITA]

I would not steal from you’re brother if I were you. Judging from that yellow stand in the workshop he has a power armor... Never steal from a guy with a power armor 😌😬

[@hawkeye7834]

looks so nice you won't ever want to use it again lol great job sir thank you for sharing

Awesome! 🧡 Please no before and after in the thumbnail though 😒 it ruins the reveal 🧡

[@KILORESTORATION]

Hey Deena. When my channel grows a bit more I plan to stop. But right now I’m trying to entice people who have never watched one of my videos to give it a look. I’m sorry if that spoils it for you. I prefer not to do it. But I’m also trying to get my channel to grow enough that I don’t have to. Thanks for the comment !

[@-Deena.]

@@KILORESTORATION I'll look away quickly! Does it really get more people to watch the videos though? Anyway, I'll squint when I see a new vid come up, until after I clicked on play :) ❤

[@josephalexander3884]

Thank you for showcasing talent versus tools. Nice work. I appreciate you had mainly simple tools, no lathe, etc.

[@frederikmoeller88]

For paint removal use wire brush on angle grinder. You have no torque/leverage with the drill.

[@mehpekmezci]

I think the best restorations I have ever watched. I'm really amazed.

[@americancitizen405]

😏Now be a good brother, and return it to your brothers shop!👍

[@mikesmith6838]

I was REALLY hoping to see him wheel it back over to his brother's shop and put it back in its' place!

[@Large_Sarge]

For not having a lathe or sandblaster, you do really amazing work. I've seen other restorers with many more tools at their disposal, not do nearly the quality restoration work. Much respect!

[@leobrent7926]

Alright... im gonna be quiet about the stolen vise, but you gotta share some of that change you took from your bro with me hehe :p

[@carlmcgee1623]

The SICKEST vise restoration I have seen. I need a vise like this..Wait a minute....I need a shop to put it in...GREAT WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This vise originally was in good mechanical condition, it hasn't been in a hard use and it was relatively well made. This is the main reason for the success of this restoration. Polishing and the logo restoration were impressive, thank you.

I'm not going to lie. That was fun and enjoyable to watch. Great intro and cinematic composition, love the section titling, and at first I was worried with you choice of handle replacements, but it actually fits the vice very well. Great job on he logo. Too many people try to over "restore" an item and they take the character and life story away. I think you enhanced it very well. Keep up the great work. Your work is appreciated.
