HUGE German Goliath 150mm Vise Restoration - Protect tools

In this video I again protect tools that didnt age the way they deserved. This time I restore an old and huge german goliath vise. The antique tool is a Goliath 150 and was preowned by a hobby blacksmith.
I got it for 20€ on eBay. I need the vise restoration for future projects.
Mid restoration I realized, that the vise was never the very best quality, the cast was very inaccurat and it probably wasnt post-processed after casting.
Thats why I decided, that I have to make this vise extra special. It needed as much attention as possible. The whole process took me a approx. a week. But I had to wait for some parts for much more time.
So I'm happy the project is done and the video is ready. I hope you enjoy my content.

[@gromit1996]

Beauty color. It's like restoring a vise is the rite of passage for the KZbin restorer. :)

[@markglessner2886]

I support that you did a sane and sensible restoration.

[@andrewmiller8182]

A beautiful finished item. I have restored many engineers vices over the years, but never to this standard. Unless, like yours, the tool is to be used as a display item I have never seen the need to remove casting marks, use filler to get a really smooth finish or polish any parts. It is a working tool and these usually lead a hard life and receive quite a battering over the years. I usually clean off the rust, make sure that the sliding parts are in good condition and then slap on a coat of Hammerite paint to finish. I mostly use a Record No.2 vice that I bought second-hand and restored 55 years ago and it still serves me well.

[@NTRprojects]

As I mention in the video, there is totally no need to do this kind of finish. But if I want to highlight the design from this era without compromising on function.. I think its a legit approach :) Thank you for your kind comment

[@TheAnto7A]

The restorations channel is focusing on perfection, this is for entertainment and standard on KZbin is increasing day by day... everything’s started with my mechanics, mr patina and other crazy perfectionist... and this channel is at this level... and it works because quality over quantity is the mission!

[@dumpsterfire6351]

Def remove casting marks…and finish the way you enjoy. Cheers! 🍻

[@humancattoy7767]

You are just showing a new shop mate that it's good to look and feel better than new.

[@NTRprojects]

I use it whenever I'm in the workshop, but I take great care of it, because I also really like how it turned out

[@dougieranger]

That’ll last another 50 years no problem. 👏🏼

[@inkenhafner7187]

Beautiful. And I bet it's smiling at you every time you enter your workshop.

[@saskia4139]

I love the color and I love your work! I am just a woman, relaxing by watching your videos. And knitting by watching. Ich mag das Blau total, es ist der Hammer! Ich kann mich bei den Videos total entspannen und stricken. Danke!

[@afrayedknott1701]

Very well done! The plates you had made were a nice touch. Maybe leave your subtitles up just a bit longer for us older folks. Great job!

[@NTRprojects]

Ok thanks for the feedback! I try to leave longer subs a little longer

[@expatmoose]

Homeless spider 4.47 minutes🤣🤣🤣 Gute Arbeit 👏🏻 klasse

[@NTRprojects]

That's the downside of the job. I do make a lot of spideys homeless.

[@kyfho47]

After having seen the vise in use in later videos, it was nice to come back to see it restoration. Nice work!

[@qwerrweterterhrhry]

Birds chirping in the background was a nice touch))

[@Anmobgoccult20]

Well done, without words, for such precise work and craftsmanship, the great German quality, one can only bow down, respect from old BG.

[@falcaossf1965]

Very nice and professional. Restored pieces are hard to put back in use, they get better than new ones.

[@NTRprojects]

Yes they are!

[@lorenzlaubach3505]

Nicht schlecht

[@NTRprojects]

So solls sein

[@larrygeorge3599]

That's a good look nice job

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Larry

[@williamlott7612]

I drank a lot of Peroni during my US Navy career. Not the best beer I’ve ever had but drinkable and cheap, two important things for a young sailor. Beautiful job on the vise. Darlington, South Carolina USA

[@NTRprojects]

I think that's not an unusual rating scale for a beer 🍻👍

[@cecilgore495]

Wish I could sit down an have a beer with you and discuss your work. Have a great day.

[@cameltanker1286]

Purdy! Good for another 50 years.

[@michaelszabo3071]

I thought I was the only person in the world that had a one clawed hammer 😂. My brother 💪. Great job as always good sir. Love all of your content!! 🫡👏👏

[@budmartin8297]

I love the blue color and the paint job is great.

[@rachmadanirachmadani1548]

Brand new life for it...excellent job..👍

[@NTRprojects]

Yes and it is very helpful to finally work with a vise. I like it very much

[@karencary3312]

Great job and awesome to look at.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Karen.

[@mikebetts5532]

[@tombarlow6176]

Great work new life for the old vice🎉🎉

[@SirEdroK]

I never thought I’d say a tool was beautiful…. But this one truly is!

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you ECo

[@rlm98253]

Exceptionally well done, sir.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you kindly!

[@nevillesmith9795]

It turned out great. Like the new blue colour. Well done👌🏼

[@LadyLeigh]

I hope you have your workshop by now. I am watching your videos out of order but love them so much I wanted to start at the beginning! I hope you bought your girlfriend a new baking tray! Fantastic job and a real work of art!

[@tombarlow6176]

Beautiful restoration of the vice keep up the good work 🎉🎉🎉

[@M_to_the_T]

Sehr sehr geil... Man sieht hier gut, dass ein Exzenterschleifer nur bedingt geeignet ist, weil er immer runde Kanten hinterlässt. Spielt hier aber technisch keine Geige und das Ergebnis ist richtig gut 👍 Besonders mag ich das Spachteln der Oberfläche.

[@NTRprojects]

Hey M T. super das es dir so gefällt. Gute Einwand zum Exzenterschleifer!

[@johnlabree6286]

Amazing work.

[@jettech1041]

Beautiful job! Love the color and polished parts! You took the ugly out of her with an awesome spa treatment! 💎👌🦾

[@NTRprojects]

I always say: "We need more spas for vices and other tools" Thank you!

[@shawnataylor7998]

Very nicely done. Thanks for sharing.

[@NTRprojects]

Thanks again Shawna. I'm glad you liked it and watched two vids in a row 😊

[@jimbolt5170]

Well done. Better than new.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Jim!!!

[@lourias]

I have seen this video quite some time ago. A great work of art!

[@itcouldbewill]

me restoring my tools: oh i'll just brush the rust off, oil it a bit this man: full disassembly, scratch removal, new parts manufactured, everything re-aligned, AND a paint job beautiful ultramarine color by the way, puts me at ease seeing someone do every step of this perfectly. a true restoration master.

[@NTRprojects]

:D:D:D Thanks Will. Just found this comment

[@lottavernix]

I am a big fan of this format with no music keep up the good work sir.

[@chrismills5110]

Many thanks for this comment chris!!

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you so much Scott!

[@darylw.schreiner2296]

[@weets69]

Too nice to use. Very nice. Great job

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you

[@joannaatkins822]

Not bad at all, you did an excellent job polishing the steel. I'll be honest, many people have a real issue getting a good finish but you nailed it!

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Joanna. I learned a lot lately about polishing, so I hop future vids show even better results

[@markdahl9453]

Looks great good job !!😎🏁

[@-Deena.]

I cried at the end😢...awww. Happy vise is now loved! 🧡

[@NTRprojects]

Oh yes indeed he is loved

[@nickblakemore3643]

MAN THIS TURNED OUT AMAZING. THE COMBINATION OF THE NIGHT BLUE PAINT, BLUED STEEL AND POLISHED STEEL IS BEAUTIFUL. IMAGINE RETURNING THIS BACK TO THE ORIGINAL BLACKSMITH YOU MENTIONED. THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WOULD BE PRICELESS. GREAT JOB BRO.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you so much nick. Really appreciate your enthusiasm. Im really happy too

[@TheMattGilbert]

Amazing outcome!

[@NTRprojects]

Thanks Matt!

[@e3672222]

great job, what a vice!!!

[@NTRprojects]

I love it. You can see it almost in all my videos again ;)

[@mattg6262]

It's a beautiful tool. Very nice work.

[@curtiscraven9220]

This made me so happy. Reminded me of my Dad. Eye water came. Thank you from Virginia.

[@user-od9pj3vq8y]

19 min video with no ads! You are literally jesus!

[@xxCashMan12xx]

From 9gag, you did a great job! Love the look. You gave me an idea for a restoration I'm doing. Thanks!

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you James, but you made me quite curious about your project. What are you working on and what Gabe you an idea?

[@xxCashMan12xx]

@@NTRprojects I'm working on restoring an '81 Honda CX500C motorcycle. The idea you gave me was for painting the plastic pieces on the bike but also not being afraid the be rough with it and alter it if it's gonna look better. Like you did when you filed down the sides of the clamps to make them even.

[@robbenge9914]

Good on you for doing a lovely restoration despite not having a workshop, you will get to having a workshop as you seem passionate about your work. We all start somewhere. Greetings from Perth, West Australia.

[@milanradak269]

Great restoration. Thanks for the video

[@zoiders]

Its nice to see a genuinely old vice and not the ones you see on other "restoration" channels that are covered in bright orange surface rust because they buried it in the garden with some salt 2 weeks ago after ordering it from Amazon.

[@NTRprojects]

I think it belonged to a blacksmith once

[@zekecorder8226]

The Blue Gloss is a great color. The polishing is great, too. Luckily those acme threads on the main screw were intact. I just had to restore an arbor that had acme threads, right and left hand. Great difficulty finding nuts, but I found them. Restoration is great fun!! I enjoy your videos.

[@sew2prosper]

Excellent once again.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Mehkii

[@MadMathMike]

Incredibly restoration! 👍😁

[@ibbobo5162]

[@rlm98253]

Greetings from Whidbey Island, Washington State, USA. Another not terrible restoration. Actually, it was a great restoration. The color is perfect and it is set off by the highly polished surfaces and the blued surfaces. Well done, sir. You've earned a new subscriber.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you for your kind feedback. Greetings back to Washington from Germany

Thanks again Michael

[@stevenfarnsworth5415]

nice vise

[@contractkilla6587]

You do beautiful work hands down I've never seen a vice that I could see my face in it But when you think about it real hard nobody would want to see my ugly face in there Vice unless I owed them money. I just finished my vice I'm waiting for the paint to dry it don't look anything like yours But it works it's clean and I'm going to take care of it and I believe it will last me the rest of my lifetime . Number to Vice made in England. I never really understood why people would take time to do this until mine recently broke and I started searching for a new old Vice and the prices were ridiculous so I decided to fix the one I had . 👊👍👍👍👍☝️

[@tonygrimes4125]

Superb job.😎

[@marcuscicero9587]

no cracks. man you got a top shelf piece of equipment there. I got a big old Reed from a buddy of mine a year ago when his pa passed away and he was cleaning his dad's house to sell it. Cleaned it up real good and had to make a new handle. Knew his dad and now have something real nice to remember him with.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you for sharing Marcus. Sounds lovely what you did!

[@MagikarpBeast]

You seem very knowledgable and relatively well equipped already, so that workshop will probably come along sooner than you think.

[@Cradley684]

The jewel in the crown on your workbench brilliant job, have a nice day !!!.

[@NTRprojects]

You really did a NTR marathon. Thank you so much Brian

[@crabtreeshep4969]

Unbelievable! If I had not watched I wouldn't believe it's the same vice. Love that color too. It looks great in your new shop. Thanks for saving that good old piece, something of that quality deserves to be rescued and made to look better than it ever did. Fine work doc!!
