I Bought The Free-est Jointer On Marketplace [Restoration]

[@dongalloway6888]

For future rebuilds... a handy tip... If I may... When installing troublesome bearings... Put the shaft in the freezer for a couple hours... Soak a paper towel in water, wrap the bearings in the wet paper towel... and pop it in the microwave for a bit... you may have to experiment with the time... but around a minute plus or minus...YES!!! Metal in the micro wave... LOL... The micro wave heats the water in the paper towel which causes the metal in the bearing to expand... Take the shaft out of the freezer... and all most all the time the bearings will slip right on... Freezing the shaft reduces it's diameter... by thousands of an inch... and heating the bearing expands the id bore by thousands of an inch... Without any damage to the bearings or the shaft... Did a complete rebuild on a Delta joiner, and a Rigid planer using this very method!!!

[@stevevenus1]

Lovely job. Not so keen on the brown color though. Think I would have kept it the same as original.

[@RickSaunders-lb9co]

Damn, where was this video when I searched two weeks ago before starting on my Rockwell refurbish!

[@moonlightsnowfall6734]

I got an old Walker-Turner 6-inch, that my son and I fixed up. It was fun to see the differences and the similarities in the machines, and how you restored it. Nice work.

[@samferguson1091]

That’s awesome, I love the styling of the old walker turners. I would love to get my hands on a few pieces.

Anyway you could post the original not sped up version? This was super helpful. I'm currently restoring a 1960 model - just finished taking it apart the other day.

[@samferguson1091]

Yeah I can try to out the footage together this weekend, if you have any questions feel free to ask on here too. I’ll try to help you as best I can

[@scottrunner6053]

@@samferguson1091 Iwas having trouble figuring out how to get the handles and bars out but realized there was a set screw and i had to punch out that little stop. I currently have all the nuts, bolts, washers, handles and fence parts sitting in evaporust! Where did you get your new bearings?

[@samferguson1091]

@@scottrunner6053 I just got them at Princess Auto (Canadian Store) because I didn’t want to wait to order them but if you can find somewhere with SKF bearings they’re the best, and worth the money

[@samferguson1091]

@@scottrunner6053 hmmm raised bar, is it possible that’s the key for the pulley? If so you should be able to punch it out with a punch and hammer. If you have Instagram you can add me on there might be easier to talk and you can send pictures

[@randykniebes5364]

great job!!! You did a very detailed restoration

[@samferguson1091]

Thanks Randy! Glad you liked it!

[@gdogbert001]

What kind of rivets did you use on the plates?

[@samferguson1091]

I used the ones that came on the machine but I believe they’re called knurled shank solid rivets. I’ve seen them on Amazon before.

[@christophernewton5016]

Thanks for asking this question! I’m doing my own resto at the moment and have been wracking my brain trying to figure out what these are called 😂

[@garymucher9590]

Seems to have your discharge shut coming out at the inlet side of the jointer. May want to change that after using it and seeing how it isn't such a good idea... Thumbs Up!

[@Wokedad1]

#1 rule for tool restoration video: show the tool in use after the restoration. We want to see that thing in action!!

[@samferguson1091]

Yeah I learned a lot after my first few videos. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching!

[@thomasarussellsr]

@@samferguson1091 if you learned, then why aren't we seeing the tools being used for their purposes?

Does it shoot straight? Do you need to shim?

[@samferguson1091]

It was pretty dead on actually, I was very suprised considering it came out of a school shop class. Thanks for watching!

[@GregAlanEdwardsEmmanuelRidge]

Nice job! I'd love to have one that was that simple to work on and use! New ones give me headaches...

[@lmnop463]

working properly? delta blue?

[@LilyMonsterz]

This is great work!! I loved watching it from beginning to end. Question: What chemicals do you use in your rust bucket?

[@jameshughes1190]

I have basically the same jointer, only made in Taiwan under the Buffalo name. Your restoration. Was outstanding, not sure why people are so negative in the comments. Incidentally, what size is the pulley on the motor? I'm thinking the cutter head should be running 4200 RPM and my current pulley won't do that.

[@pandapanda8354]

An honest to goodness mullet! So incredible

[@samferguson1091]

Unfortunately the hair has passed on... RIP... Gone but not forgotten.

[@die4toys1]

Hey Sam, I have the same jointer and I need a new motor. Can you tell me what motor you used and where you got it? Thanks!! Fantastic video and job with the restoration!!!

[@007naumankhan]

I recently got a similar jointer i am trying to restore. Can you tell me what size are the bigger bolts on the in feed and out feed table. I have other nut size but i will have to buy the one for the bigger nut. TIA

[@007naumankhan]

another quick question is how did you remove the emblems from the machine? I am trying to paint it so want to remove all the metal emblems and then put them back on when im done.

[@samferguson1091]

The Emblems are just held in with little rivets. You just have to get a chisel or something underneath them and pry them out. be careful though because the emblems are soft and can pop right through. As far as the the bolts I'll take a look today and get back to you. Thanks for watching!

[@babebful]

Nice job not sure why you didn’t keep it the same color that one kind a looks like my kids diaper

[@atnfn]

I just skipped through the entire video by clicking at random spots but where exactly did the top surface of the table become shiny and smooth instead of a bumpy surface pitted by rust?

[@PeanutsDadForever]

Another tool saved!🇦🇺👴🏻

[@calvinbass1839]

I would've screwed that up big time. Not counting all the spare parts left over. Well done. Thank.

[@samferguson1091]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@Witchhunter33724]

Calvin don’t throw yourself under the bus. Restorations like are simple.

[@rleb4545]

Nice Job on the restoration. But Dude you got to do something with the background noise. Put some music in there or something. I don't mind watching in fast forward but the but with a little music would be much more watchable. I hate to criticize and usually don't post negativity but i really like the video and would like to see you succeed. Just a viewers perspective...

[@samferguson1091]

I understand completely, I hadn’t even thought of the music until I started editing. Check out my other videos though they’re much better, I learned after the first one. I appreciate the feedback!

[@stevedaniell7643]

What did you soak the rusty parts in? Nice job.

[@samferguson1091]

Evapo-rust there’s a link to it in the description. It’s a little more money upfront than vinegar or some of the other cheaper alternatives but it lasts forever and does a way better job.

[@joad47]

By now you prolly realized that you got the shaving shute in backwards. Just flip it to come out the outfeed side.

[@johnclayton1026]

[@sedge5940]

Is it just me, or is the audio all messed up on this video? Also, why does everyone that does a video on this old Delta model skip over the part about getting the fence off? Sam makes it look easy (just twist, twist, twist and it pops off!) Mine won't come off.

[@thedude4632]

Fast job no bs . Liked your work but why that color . Wish I had a delta vise this grizzly

[@marclebrun641]

I just bought the same jointer, don't have the drive belt cover, Love the color. Is the chip shoot homemade?

[@samferguson1091]

You’re one of the good guys Marc... I think the chip shoot is factory but I could be wrong. It’s an awesome jointer, have you seen the art-deco bases? They’re beautiful and they have build in dust shoot.

[@rammugambe1314]

Sams method of hammering on the bearings is wrong. Why bother changing them if your just going to destroy new one. Also the color you choose looks like shit.
