Not being a skilled welder myself, I had no idea that the weld LADB made would be so hard that it'd be near impossible to drill or tap. Thanks LADB for showing that, I learned something from you and some helpful comments.

[@fionabunny9835]

Your videos are so fascinating, I watch them before bed all the time!! Thank you for doing what you do, your uploads make my day better every time!

[@Gixer750pilot]

Love this . But instead of sawing off bolt when the nut is stuck , try a nut splitter, or apply heat and or try tightening the nut before trying to undo it . That often cracks the rust layer off inside

[@timehunter9467]

I was thinking that, or a hammer and chisel. I’ve used it on seized bolts before to turn them a bit.

[@scroungasworkshop4663]

Well done, what a great little shear that is. Is Avril OK? Just for future reference, welding cast iron with mild steel rods nearly always ends with glass hard metal that can only be ground. Cheers, Stuart 🇦🇺

[@royhoffman3245]

😊

[@updownstate]

Been away a long time. Good to be back. Hope Avril and humans all in good health and spirits.

I love these channels, you know, the ones that actually restore stuff instead of "restoring" and "old toy" that was just smashed with a hammer thrown in mud and finished with basing pigments for miniature painting, This channel is what keeps me hopeful that youtube has some good creators left.

[@magebear7]

Absolutely shocked he left that weld on the handle.

[@bowietwombly5951]

Same, although I actually liked the finished look with the contrast in materials and colors. Maybe he had the same problem as the other weld where it was just ludicrously hard and it would have been an insane amount of effort to grind it down.

[@tysonsecord1653]

It's so nice until that weld

[@sloana7368]

i loved the video but i felt like this project was a little sloppy, the paint job in particular plus the weld

[@sergiocerda5709]

I thought the same. The whole restoration was flawless, but that weld...... Awful

[@survivalofthefittest409]

That, and the paint job..and the cutter portion..and didn't look like he sanded down..or did anything with the handle, just painted right over it. I think I've been both spoiled & jaded by "My Mechanics", to does everything to as close to perfect as I've ever seen it lol. All that being said, I feel like a jerk saying any of this when it's alot more than I can do 😅 But still...that weld tho 😂

[@garymucher4082]

Nice refurbish project. Amazing how easy those metal shears cut with the compound leverage. Owning such a tool allows you to make a lot of really interesting and needed projects now... Thumbs Up!

[@pv.rodrigues]

Just wanted to say that I think your work is awesome. You made this piece look like it's ready for work. The fact that the primer dindn't hide it's marks or the weld on the handle wasn't sanded off, gave it a unique identity (in my opinion). I have a farm and your channel made me believe that my old rusted tools can be restored and back to real action. So thank you for that.

[@judyabernathy80]

Beautifully done! I’m always amazing at how precise and functional a machinist can make parts for an item and have it work better than when it was new!!!

[@pieterlandstra9746]

I was surprised you didn’t clean up the weld on the handle?

[@collincutler2278]

I'm loving the lathe work in the recent videos. Keep it up!

[@tyn999]

I know it's a lot of work, but I think the finish would be better if you sanded down the weld on the handle... Anyway, it was very satisfying to watch the restoration!

[@michaeloconnell6876]

Thank you! I thought I was the only one. I said "All this awesome work and not gonna smooth out that handle?"

[@ronm3245]

@@michaeloconnell6876 If someone _didn't_ say (or think) that, they're probably the only one.

[@survivalofthefittest409]

Exactly. There were a few things honestly lol, but heck..it's more than I can do, so whateva lol

[@zoe78115]

So happy for seeing another of your nice and perfect works! ❤

[@blinkenlights]

Lovely. Fantastic work, as always. Great to see an old tool such as this get a second life.

[@bastiaoemmiami]

5:52 The master mold was fibrous wood, you can see the wood fibers perfectly!

[@dianestephenson7639]

Very nice,,, throughout this video I was wondering what this could be used for I knew it had to cut something ,, thank you for showing it cut the metal at the end of the video ,,it turned out wonderful ,,I hope this is a piece you can put to use in your shop ,,it's nice to see the old brought back & used,,I hope your day is wonderful 😊

[@robertaabreu1647]

Você é um verdadeiro artista! Parabéns!

[@irener3152]

No sé porqué la primera soldadura la dejas como pegote, cuando la segunda soldadura la pasas por la máquina de diamante para quitar el exceso de soldado...😮

[@christopheferraux2864]

beautiful restoration, these shears may be useful for your next renovation

[@453421abcdefg12345]

Another one saved! You will find this really good on black iron bar from Briclage, I use mine all the time, I like the little safety dangler that stops the blade coming down, the weld went glass hard because the weld pool took out some of the carbon in the cast iron, you could have annealed it with the torch, you will have noticed that the countersunk bolts holding the blade on were not standard countersink bolts, they have a much shallower countersink angle, the ones you made had standard countersink angles on them, that may cause problems later when you use this superb shear! Many thanks for posting! Chris B.

[@PaulinaPaulino]

omg, that was REALLY well done !

[@gingersnapwifey]

I love watching @mymechanics resto vids but watched them all. Most other restorers seem sloppy and inexperienced. Your videos do not, they remind me of my fav channel, and so I will keep watching. Thank you

[@nineteenandfortyone]

Another block of rust turned into a valuable tool! Great job!

[@michellemonksfield2171]

What is the difference in using blue liquid coating and heating and dipping in oil?

[@ronm3245]

Hot bluing is more durable and is preferred.

[@verngfeller3906]

That came out great wow I love it great work - all the best to you & thanks for showing us your process 👍

Good evening from Southeast South Dakota

[@JustAPersonWhoComments]

This metal shear spent more time in the rusty wilderness than someone spent in their entire life procrastinating lol

Welcome back, it's been way too long since the last video.

[@jamesalsup9135]

Excellent!

[@RealSuburbanCowboy]

Tighten nuts by using the box end of the wrench. It keeps them from rounding out. Always use box end when you can. Beautiful piece!!!

[@PINKWOMAN88]

very awesome 👏👏
