Rusty Iron Restoration

[@michellemonksfield2171]

Love the collaboration between the 'older' and 'younger' hands, showcasing their respective restoration skills. Great work as always.

[@joester610]

I almost want to say that this was a project taken on by someone other than the main guy on this channel.

[@Philipasu]

Kitty timestamps: 7:13 Resting catto 7:36 ~ some scritches and head patting for Avril And that's one more reason housekeeping was hard decades (and centuries) ago. Ironing clothes meant smoking your hand. Thanks for the video! Awesome work as always! May God bless you!

[@ladbrestoration]

😻

[@tomcappy3956]

For such few parts to repair, your workmanship is excellent. This has been one of the most enjoyable restorations to date. Nice that you restored the handle as opposed to crafting a new one. I am a woodworker (as well).

[@Tranzisto]

The thing that I really like about this channel is every restoration actually feels like a restoration that preserves a feeling of an old object, with imperfections like pitting on metal, weird old texturing on wood etc. That's not to say channels like my mechanics are not impressive, with that guy I am blown away in every video by the fact he turns an old thing into something that looks like it's brand new. It's just that I prefer it when some quality of "vintageness" is preserved, like with this heater - some amazing work has been done here and it is obviously perfectly functional, but it looks like an antique piece worthy of being exhibited in a museum, not like something that came off a conveyor belt last monday.

[@Cora.T]

One thing I "dislike" about my mechanics is the use of the mirror finish, I understand why he does it and it's absolutely a show of brilliant craftsmanship. But it makes the metal look a bit like plastic sometimes

[@TakeMyHeartWithYou]

I always really like when they deep fry the metal. It gives me joy.

[@tedschmaltz4346]

this one was a nice blend of 'restore' and 'remake'. Saving that wooden handle was nice...

[@larasemerad2605]

My dad has a collection and I hope your video will help-Thanks. He use to Collect Antique tools, Irons and farming machine.

[@Captofthisship]

Love Avril, you got the purrfect garage kitty right there. Not like mine, where she just lays on the whole project; usually electronics repairs by the way. hahaha

[@chocolatefrenzieya]

She's HELPING!

[@mred8002]

Lovely work. I think my seamstress wife would prefer a slight bevel or rounding on the plate circumference to get rid of that slightly rough edge so it doesn’t snag fine fabrics. We love old irons, too!

[@lopidy65]

I love old irons. I have my grandmother's iron that she would set on the stove to heat. I might restore it one day. As always a great restoration!

[@terryrogers1025]

Nicely done, looks great, thanks for the video.

[@weescamp]

Your videos are so restful and interesting. The perfect way to unwind after a day in the office. Thank you for sharing.

[@stitchfinger7678]

I always appreciate when restorers try to preserve even the wood. Gorgeous work as always

[@kjamison5951]

I only view these to see Avril - I was not disappointed! And the bonus is that I get to watch a restoration video that goes from zero to 💯. Thank you!

[@judyabernathy80]

Yet another beautifully done restoration. It turned out amazing. It must be very rewarding to bring these relics back to life. I am a wood carver, and when I have finished with a piece I have carved, it brings me great satisfaction. Thanks for taking us through the process. ♥️🙏🏼♥️

[@cindypowers4993]

I am fascinated by your techniques and skill in restoring, what I would say, are historical artifacts. I enjoy your channel immensely. ✌️

[@jeanguycanuel3373]

J'aime bien vos projets. Encore une fois un très très beau travail. Félicitation, du Québec, Canada.👍🏻🇨🇦

[@gayle525]

Came out really well. I do wish that you would have sanded the ironing part to maybe 2000 grit so it was almost polished. Most iron faces are polished. Makes for smooth ironing.

[@teehill8980]

Top 3 favorite channels!!!! LABD never disappoints!!! Thanks for sharing your content

[@geo2cv6tron14]

The before / after is really really impressive 🤩👍

[@Benson_aka_devils_advocate_88]

I won't lie, seeing that extra hand threw me for a second. One of those, something isn't quite right, moments! 🙃 Between being at 888k subs and the kitty's guest appearance, notice my name and pic, I couldn't help but sub. Nicely done, too. I like that you didn't "restore" the handle, opting for a light sanding and staining. If it's old, keep it old, is my preference.

[@robertmanley7556]

Wonderful job guys !! Top shelf work all the way !! It works AMAZINGLY well irons that material out like a charm !! 👍👍

[@tyn999]

This iron seems more practical to heat than others I've seen. Great restoration!

[@VeretenoVids]

I have no idea why, but watching you mill bolts, screws, rivets, etc. completely fascinates me! I love all of it, but that part just really grabs my attention.

[@MPi-KM]

It's always a good day when Avril shows up.

[@chocolatefrenzieya]

He doesn't dare NOT show him at this point. We all know who the channel star is. lol!

[@tashasmith6179]

WOW!!! Works like a brand new one. Great job

[@davids6533]

I truly enjoy watching this channel. I subscribed after watching your first video and patiently wait for new ones. Of all I've seen here, the wheelbarrow restorations are my favorite so far. I like that you reuse what you can. It reminds me of a saying that came from people that lived through hard times. They said "Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without."

[@simonl4523]

Thank you so much for keeping the wooden handle, and not replacing it

[@stepvolodya]

Только подошву не просто шлифовать нужно было, но и полировать.

[@farmsidney]

Que trabalho lindo. Fico sempre feliz em ver essas restaurações.

[@verdiekus___6084]

I am amazed at how well it works. Beautifully done on the restoration.

[@ladbrestoration]

Same for us, it works very well ! 🙂

[@MCsCreations]

Awesome, dude! Really beautiful work! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@cynthieful]

my favourite part is always the end where you actually test the product !

[@Vano_sz]

Oh my got! I saw the same equipment in the museums, but it still works as it should be.

[@saelmar]

I love that you ironed with it at the end!

[@raywood8187]

Another piece of history saved and made beautiful again. They must have loved their modern conveniences!

[@Maks-wk2qf]

У моей бабушки был такой в деревне. Спасибо за видео!

[@dancingpuffin8936]

Love your videos, you're very talented!

[@francafu8951]

One of the best ones yet

[@weekendstuff]

Nice restaration process and really awesome final product.

[@Kalmontanna]

Incredible! I need this for my off grid cabin!

[@renem6441]

And you know how to iron a shirt!! Great work! Thanks for sharing

[@npfrestoration]

Great job. I also restored this one and tried to iron it, it turns out great

[@jamesfield5346]

You two do such beautiful work

[@ahmetdogankaraca3604]

Good job Arvil's effective supervision... Congratulations...

[@ДмитрийАлександров-м4ч]

Привет! Отлично восстановленный утюг, да еще в рабочем состоянии! Я этим летом на копе взял утюг, только не для углей, а полностью литой, жалею теперь, что не запечатлел ждя истории! Аврелию низкий поклон! Всем добра!

[@kalp2113]

We still have one of these and my grandma used it during one of our heavies hurricane. Old but not useless

[@chocolatefrenzieya]

LAPD is so polite. Instead of "these welds are horrendous", he says, "these welds are not original, let's fix them." haha!

[@Tim-57]

Hey Guys I always like it, when you grow a 3rd hand when required...haha The iron is great Take care

[@drskelebone]

IDK why, but I love videos that have "Attempt 1 to get thing off. Attempt 2 to get thing off. Attempt 3 to get thing off involved grinding down the head of the screw, because it is coming off right now." :D

[@andresraffler]

I love how he takes the time to bring his cat just so we can see him. Absolutely adorable.

[@ianrandell9763]

A new video from the legendary LADB, at last.

[@koalaboygaming346]

7:38 wow dude! Looks like you did an awesome job restoring that cat! Well done

[@robt2151]

I can remember when growing up that charcoal irons were the only option we had. Very economic if you already have a hot stove.

[@SemiErnie]

I've seen the solid steel ones from back in the day but not this type , nice job on bringing it back to life.

[@u.s.1974]

Nice Job, well done. And apparently cat certified and Avril approved.

[@restorationofdirty]

[@sharonromer6606]

I remember my grandmother use to have a couple of theses from her childhood 😉

[@tais006]

Great job, I got the same one from my grandmother in my country house, I also need to restore it in case of a power outage)))

[@hollybeary]

Beautiful work as always! Hello Avril! 🐱

[@horstszibulski19]

Make sure, no amber will slip out of the holes and burn your linen! 🤣🤣🤣 Great job, as always, nice to watch! 👍👍👍

[@re-fix9678]

[@lutzherbst6885]

Also ich hab ja am Anfang ein wenig gezweifelt aber er hat das Bügeleisen wirklich gut wieder hingekriegt. Bravo!

[@gauseb]

I would have loved to see all the pitting from the rust get fixed. Bring it back to a smooth finish

[@拓-v1w]

いつも器用で丁寧な仕事ぶりでカッコいい😎

[@yeagerxp]

Very good restoration 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Be safe🇨🇦

[@czesawkonratowicz5815]

You didn't put heat into such irons, but a hot piece of iron. In my language it was called soul, but I don't know the English equivalent.

[@kajaldey2934]

Awesome...... Awesome........ your hand work sir,please upload more new videos . From INDIA 🙏

[@elvaterry9009]

Nicely done

[@suhayl5157]

I love your work... EXCELLENT RESTORATION... and then ironing your clothes... hahaha Great... Hug from a distance...

[@larrykelly2838]

Glad to see you two again. Great restoration of an old Iron, the age of it is older than me by a few years, lol. Is it from the early 1900s?

[@ormurgujonsson8463]

I think these were produced up till the 50's, my family has some that were made in the USSR

[@ericfg806]

Thanks for keeping that wood handle.

[@beatadzurna447]

Excellent !👍👏

[@Heymrk]

J'adore Avril.

[@widowmakerdesign]

Holy crap! This is amazing… I had no idea you had three hands!!!???🤔🤣

[@widowmakerdesign]

Oh, I get it… i feel silly now

[@pabbischannel8812]

High tech may be more convenient but low-tech is so much more interesting!

[@MWRestoration]

Nice Video Bro😎💪🏼

[@frederickheard2022]

Good job, Avril.

[@Jan-oq8hc]

Great job.

[@NunoBecker]

Isso muito da hora, adorei o vídeo. Minha mãe disse que meus avós e bisavós tinham esse tipo de ferro de passar roupa. Poxa o que eu daria para ter esse utensilio para guardar.

[@TwinkleTwinkleTruly]

Wow, that is a smart way to remove rust :O

[@gustavoluiszanotto9922]

Fenomenal job!!!!!

[@Willpower-74205]

Tony Stark may be Iron-Man, but you really know how to restore an iron, man! 😁👍

[@dg1294]

Does anyone know the purpose of the wooden knob on the back?

[@davidacord]

These are the kinds of things that keep me up at night. I also need to know.

[@xtender5]

This video is Avril approved.

[@CraigLYoung]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@ethangarrett9343]

Awesome vid! And my wife asks you to give Avril extra head scratches

[@slimwantedman6694]

Good morning from Southeast South Dakota

[@kravenschneiderstroheim2594]

I appreciate the great publication of this video on your KZbin channel, please be kind enough to answer my query about the technical name for that cabinet, closet or metal room where you carry out the torch painting process.

[@salonika101]

When using this iron on delicate, thin clothes, you can use a pillow case as a barrier. You put the extra cloth on top of the thin cloth your afraid will burn, then the cloth won't burn.
