Help Me Pick Out a New Restoration Project | Junk Yard Exploration

[@Matthias9319]

That Pumpkin is a really neat little cast iron Halloween item, that needs some love haha. I love old holiday ornaments.

[@Restorology]

It's on a shelf in my shop staring at me every day. Maybe I'll blast it clean and repaint it for a Halloween video. Thanks!!

[@Matthias9319]

@@Restorology That would be great, I am looking forward to october!

[@paulosborne6517]

I'd have that big green metal public bench near the start 0:29 Very sturdy, and modern looking - could be made into a stylish garden piece, especially with some slim cushion seats with magnets in the hem - so that they stay put under your bum, but can be removed for easy storage out of the weather.

[@Restorology]

Thanks for sharing! Does it swing? I need to go back and look. If so, it might be coming home with me sooner than later. 🍻

[@paulosborne6517]

@@Restorology I guess you could make an a-frame underneath the wrap-over arms, with nice bearings and a lock, to allow swinging of sorts.

[@Life_of_Rita]

It looked like a glider. I'm in the South, and everybody's mamaw had one like this on the front porch. Highly desirable now - snap it up if you can still get it! I'm all for the glider and second to that, the little girl statuary. She's really sweet and I could definitely see her in my flower garden ❤

[@sdupre61]

That small, thoroughly rusted bin just after the corn sheller would be my vote.

[@darlong9917]

the one with the yellow handle looked like a loggers gaff hook to roll logs I remember my grandpa had one and I think one of the old bikes and the addressogram metal punch thing would be nice projects for you.

[@Restorology]

Thanks for the feedback!!

[@derekujonzu2242]

Would love to see you restore that vintage bicycle, would also be nice to see you restore that handsaw.

[@Restorology]

The saw is now calling out to me to help it! I am all for the bike. I think it is in the lead in the comments too. Thanks for contributing! 🍻

[@skunkyrocky4166]

Bike, corn sheller, folding shovel, graphotype. Pumpkin too. Thanks for asking for input. Really cool idea.

[@Restorology]

I want to do them all! Thanks for the feedback. Cheers!

[@Restomaniac]

Weird, I was excited and confused as if I was going to restore it myself 😊 I personally prefer seeder 😊

[@Restorology]

Thanks for the vote! I am not 100% sure that it is a seeder, I should have looked at it closer when I was there. So far the bicycle is winning but I think that there will be several things coming home with me. I had an idea while walking around - what if I purchase all of those handsaws and then offer them to YT restoration channels who want to participate in a friendly competition to see the different ways we can repair and restore them?

[@Restomaniac]

@@Restorology Yes, it could be an interesting project. It's like a community movement of restorers. There were restorers who produced projects jointly with each other before. But not this size. But of course, there may be a logistical problem in this project. It's probably more possible to do this with restorers in America. For example, I am in Turkey 😁

[@jowolfe149]

The Schwinn bike is a must IMO... And I think the box looking thing towards the first part of the walk around reminds me of an old drive in movie speaker box.. I could be wrong... Love the videos! I learn so much about restoring!

[@Restorology]

The bike seems to be the leading contender! Another commenter mentioned that the drive-in movie speaker box is actually a motor for a rotisserie on a grill. I also thought it looked like a speaker box of some type. We are all learning here! Thanks for voting on your favorite and see you in the next one. Cheers!

[@evanilzaresende1474]

Qualquer peça em suas mãos vira obra de arte.

[@Restorology]

Não tenho certeza sobre isso, mas obrigado por escrevê-lo.

[@RestorationEndeavours]

Definitely the corn sheller or the little red wagon!

[@Restorology]

Thanks for the input. The corn sheller is a popular one. You are the first to suggest the wagon. The bike is leading right now. Stay tuned! 🍻

[@fredhikade7629]

My vote is the bike. Big project!

[@Restorology]

The bike seems to be in the lead! Thanks for your vote!

[@robrot5460]

The Big Boy is a rotisserie motor. I agree with Dereku, you should restore the old Schwinn.

[@Restorology]

This makes total sense. I researched it before posting and found the Big Boy brand of grills but nothing on this. Thanks for the info and for weighing in on the next project!! 🍻

[@fabianemonteiro5863]

Olá! Eu gosto de ver todo tio de restauração, mas adoro quando você restaura móveis antigos. Fico pensando que vai ser perda de tempo e que não vai ter jeito mas no final fica incrível, quase um milagre.😊

[@Restorology]

Obrigado pelas palavras muito gentis. Fico feliz que você goste de assistir meus projetos. Os próximos vídeos serão sobre diferentes peças de mobiliário. Vejo você no próximo!

[@markneo1]

Lugar incrível. Cheio de coisas legais. Gostaria de conhecer um lugar assim.👏👏👏👏🇧🇷

[@Restorology]

Obrigado. Eu realmente gosto de passear por este lugar e encontrar novos projetos. ✌🏽

[@EFNIR]

Technically, I'm good with anything, and think you should do the projects you would enjoy.... But... the silly little pumpkin ( 04:31 ) really needs to be done as a quick project come October (it's so sad leaving him in the trash), and that graphotype looks fascinating - well worth watching a series of videos. :)

[@Restorology]

I believe you are correct about the poor pumpkin. The little dude needs some love come October. I love the Graphotype but goodness it is going to take some time to do it if I take it on...also, I need to find a way to get it home. It is HEAVY! Thanks for the input! Peace!!

[@EFNIR]

@@Restorology Don't kill yourself for us - do the graphotype only if you decide it's worth the time and effort! Peace to you and all! :)

[@jaguarwarrior866]

@@Restorology I saw an Episode on American Pickers about a similar vintage/antique metal pumpkin that they bought for hundreds of dollars. do some research, perhaps that one is worth Money $. I Vote to restore the pumpkin.

[@Restorology]

@@jaguarwarrior866 That's crazy! I have not seen that episode but I am looking it up tonight. I did bring the pumpkin home but I haven't done anything with it yet!! Thanks for the heads up. Cheers!!

[@danielpintos1443]

Hola! La verdad que hay muchas cosas lindas para restaurar pero me inclino por la bicicleta y un inflador, luego la desgranadora de maíz

[@Restorology]

¡Estoy de acuerdo! Hay demasiadas cosas entre las que elegir. ¡¡Quiero trabajar en todos ellos!! Gracias por votar por tu favorito. ¡Salud!

[@RestorationAustralia]

Hello friend, a lot to choose from.😊

[@Restorology]

Yes, too many choices. I want to work on them all. 🤙

[@bastiaoemmiami]

0:50 This is a motor for rotating roast skewers, the back has a square socket.

[@Restorology]

Thank you!

[@Tictac-37]

Le décortiqueur de maïs !!

[@Restorology]

Je pense qu'il est sur la liste à coup sûr. Merci d'avoir voté! Paix!

[@adriendubus2738]

The graphotype !

[@Restorology]

I am super intrigued with the Graphotype. It would be a long term project that might require a video series if I film it. Is a series something you feel people would watch? Thanks for the comment. Peace!

[@zookulator]

The tool you asked about what it was, is a known as a 'closet hook' or 'very short pike pole' used in firefighting.

[@Restorology]

Thanks!

[@jstaatzy5606]

At least we know you're not one of the fake rust guys. I vote for the bike.

[@Restorology]

Did you believe I was a fake rust guy??? 😉 The bike is in the lead. Thanks for voting! Peace! ✌🏽

[@jstaatzy5606]

@@Restorology no way, man! It's why you're on my list. Those fake rust guys don't make the list.

[@ChristopherStump]

The unknown item at about 48 seconds in looks to be an old car speaker from a drive-in theater.

[@Restorology]

That is what I thought at first too but someone else mentioned that it is a rotisserie motor which makes sense because Big Boy was/maybe is a grill manufacturer back in the day. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

[@theskyehiker]

Corn sheller!

[@Restorology]

It is cool for sure! Thanks for commenting. Cheers!

[@ShamankingZuty]

You gotta do something with a toilet. Maybe make it into a pot for a plant or a small fountain? Something to decorate the yard with. Would be really cool to see.

[@Restorology]

Okay this was a suggestion I was not expecting to see today! I'll think about it!! Thanks for the idea. Cheers!

[@Mr.Howell78k]

​​@@Restorologyow about a Cargo/Delivery bicycle made from scratch completely out of wood and/or bamboo. The "front cargo" platform could be open or hold wooden enclosure for a cat (named: Pimpey) who loves to go for Saturday rides and slurp Eggnog.🐈‍⬛ {of course Pimpey would relax on a purple velvet pillow with gold trim & gold tassels. 🛡️💎👑💰

Do the vintage Shelby bicycle

I think, you must restore a "corn machine" or old bike, gareen scissors from garbage can.
