Iconic French Wonder Lamp - Restoration

In this video i'm restoring an old french Wonder lamp.
My good friend TysyTube Restoration bought this Wonder lamp on a flea market in Paris. He asked me if I want to restore it and obviously I said yes. He already restored two of them himself, I link his videos and channel below. These Wonder lamps are very well known in France, they're used on railroads mostly as far as I know.
I first wanted to paint the inside of the lamp white, but as soon as I saw the amazing look of the sandblasted aluminium I decided to go with that. I just had to remove the casting marks first and then sandblast it again. I choose yellow for the lamp with black letters and black for the handle and the switch. It had a few brass parts that were deformed to keep them in place, which I had to grind away to loosen them. I made all these parts new on the lathe and mill and gave them a nice mirror polish. I deformed them again when reassembling, except for the threads. It was quite a challenge to organize the battery, as they're not produced anymore today. MC-51 rust remover did an amazing job on the very rusty steel parts, a bit of sanding and polishing and they appeared like brand new. Same goes for the plastic parts, I sanded them wet with 400 grit and polished them with car wax.
I really like how this lamp turned out, even that the colours are not original, the yellow goes very nice with the black and polished parts in my opinion. As I mentioned above, I'll keep this lamp for myself for display.
I hope you like my work and the video.

It's not talent. I went back to school to learn exactly this trade. Before I was 30 I walked around in the world not knowing how stuff was made. In school I learned about materials, their strengths and weaknesses, how to approach working on them and learning what materials are good for what kind of stuff. This man has a lot of miles on his meter working in this branche and that is what shows. Talent doesn't exist. Talent is adequately shaped enthusiasm. You can have a preference for what you like but no one is born with the right knowledge and tools. It's all learning and practice.

There is nothing more soothing and satisfying than turning brass. Short chips and the chirp is perfect.

For months I follow both (TysyTube and My Mechanics). Both are very good but someone has to say it. My Mechanics has a level of detail and unrivaled perfection. I repeat both are very good but seeing a finished work of My Mechanics always gives a feeling that could not be done better, however when watching a video of TysyTube leaves the feeling that they could polish a little more the small details. Congratulations to both and I am a big follower of both, thanks for such good videos.

Dude I’m not gonna lie your videos are great to get me to fall asleep. I’m a severe insomniac and it’s really hard to fall asleep sometimes. Since you don’t talk, I just kinda go in a dreamy state while watching your videos and I sleep. So thanks you, you’ve let me sleep for good. 😁

This might be my favorite restoration video I've ever seen, and I've seen MANY. This video was incredibly satisfying. I especially love the little thumb-scrapes on the imperfections of the aluminum cast and the subsequent removal of them! This is a world-class video. Really enjoyed it!

People love admiring your satisfaction with your amazing hard meticulous work and restoration! I love your videos. They surprisingly help me fall asleep too, and when I wake up, I pick up were I left off! Had no idea watching your videos would be so relaxing and satisfying to see antiques being given new life! Thank you!
