1950’s Casino Card Shuffler Restoration - How Does It Work?

I restore a 1950's Casino Card Shuffler. I wonder through all the rust how much black jack did this antique restoration play?

Everyone in my family's circle of friends (all avid bridge players) had one of these. As a very young kid, I was in awe of this simple mechanical device and lulled by the clean whirring sound it made shuffling with an almost precise even-handedness. Thanks for sharing.

[@midnightmodding4658]

Interesting contraption. Would have liked to see the paint applied smoothly and the wood restored properly, but gets the job done.

[@paulorth2251]

That was one serious throwback, the battery powered ones have been around for years now and to find an old hand cranked model is truly unique. Thanks for sharing. 😁👍🇺🇸

Two months ago I bought one of those battery powered card shufflers for my mother-in-law who has arteritis in her hands, making it difficult to shuffle the playing cards. Upon receiving the shuffler, I could never get it to shuffle reliably, even after taking it apart, going through the mechanism, and looking at KZbin videos for maintenance tips. Giving up on it, I decided to buy something american made from the past and restore it. Researching eBay, I found one of these Nestor Johnson shufflers made in the late 1940's, which is about 5 years older than the one pictured in this video. My assumption was, since these have been around for 50 - 70 years, are made entirely from metal and wood, and still in one piece, the shuffler should work fine for many more years with some reconditioning. After completely disassembling, cleaning, and oiling, the reconditioned shuffler works like new. While researching these shufflers, I noticed some cost cutting measures were implemented over the years. The one I have has nickled plated screws, "wings", and the crank wheel. Only 1 rubber roller (2.25" long) is used per shaft and the large gear is pressed onto the crank wheel. Later models used a nylon combination crank wheel and gear, with painted "wings".

First video I've seen from this video and as soon as I saw the great value rainbow sherbet bucket I knew I was watching a creator of taste and excellent work.

[@taulce1]

I enjoyed the video. However, the paint didn’t turn out well in my opinion. Could have used a nice primer followed by wet sanding and a good powder coating. Otherwise good. Thanks for the video.

[@lisapino6739]

Beautiful restoration on this old rusty card shuffler. Your work is always perfect. I love watching you work your magic with your hands. I never seen anything like this before your video. Thanks very much for sharing. I'll be looking forward to your next one. Take care and stay safe and healthy

Slightly different model than the one I restored, interesting to see the changes. Nice job! 🙂

Lovely restoration. Great work, as usual. Just wondering why you didn't use primer before painting. Btw, I loved that green tone better, too.

[@pcvtintin]

Great job! I was hoping to see powder coating, but it looks good!

I don't like how that paint looks when it's applied with a brush. It seems as if I applied too much. That paint exists in spray format and it looks much better

[@Thoron_of_Neto]

So, my wife and I are by no means experts, but we watch at least one restoration video a night before bed. It's out little tradition lol. Manufacturers stopped using lead in paint in 1978, so for your own health, I would caution you to check something made in the 1950s, because that stuff is no joke if it gets in your lungs, and paint dust, even in a sand blasting cabinet, can hang around forever!

Did he throw the screws into an instant pot with water?

I like the restore but i just don't like the paint. I would have gone with powder coat mint green something thin so you can see all makers marks etc. still great job

[@restorationofdirty]

🖤❤️

[@charlievondoom7256]

It looks good, but why paint it with a paint brush?

[@tron3entertainment]

Back in the day, there was typewriter plumping fluid. It brought the "fatness" back to the platen which became beaten down with use. I only heard of it a couple of times, but don't recall seeing it used. I think it smelled horrible. These days you can probably buy new rubber wheels online, were it not for Plastidip.

[@RESTLESS_ERRANT]

Powder coating would have really pushed this one over the top.

[@bobjoncas2814]

...ANTE UP, IT'S YOUR DEAL....LOL..GOOD ONE...

[@gelogia]

Can you turn it into something useful like a cheese slicer

[@leehunter4084]

The handle of the vise wound not continue to hit the workbench if you turned it around so it hangs over the edge of the bench.

[@lostandrestored]

But if I did that, everything I work on would be out of frame and you wouldn't be able to see it. My space is too small. So I get the shot so everyone can enjoy.

[@stevesebzda570]

@@lostandrestored Nice joke, but the shot has nothing to do with it [you're using two hands above -- and since you have no hand below , and that might not even help ] because everything you knock out would be falling on the floor , and bouncing off of that vise worm gear in the middle bouncing this way or that]. Nice joke though lol [[So, it's better the way you have it ]]

[@stevesebzda570]

@@leehunter4084 That's what he should have said. Ya can't have small screws smacking the floor and bouncing all over [and maybe even under the bench]. Ya don't need a wanted screw flying back there. Better the way he has it [I'll have to keep that in mind] lol. 👍😂😎☕️

[@oculusangelicus8978]

great work on this shuffler, but the paint job isn't the best, it would have looked a lot better if you had sprayed the paint on, sure you would have had to use thinners and done a few coats to get it fully covered, but there would not be any brush marks left on it and it would look like it had just rolled off the production conveyor. Other than the paint job though, this thing looks fabulous. I noticed you need a new bench grinder, it was really bogging down with only light resistance from the plates you were wire wheeling. You should have to put almost your entire bodyweight into it before it should bog down like that.

Cold blueing does nothing as far as rust protection goes. Got blueing does. The oil bath is the short term protection.
