You never SAW it coming - 1960's FESTO REPAIR and OVERHAUL

[@FestoolDeutschland]

Hallo Lukas, vielen 💚-lichen Dank für diese unglaubliche Arbeit an dieser alten Festo Handkreissäge. Einfach unglaublich, wie sie jetzt wieder aussieht und dass sie auch nach dieser langen Zeit wieder funktioniert. Hut ab vor Deiner Arbeit! 🤩 Wir sind einfach nur beeindruckt und dankbar, dass die Säge nun wieder neu erstrahlen durfte! Viele Grüße Dein Festool Team

[@NTRprojects]

Hallo liebes Festool-Team. Ich freue mich wahnsinnig über euer Feedback. Einfach toll von euch, dass ihr euch bei mir meldet. Super 💚-lichen Dank

[@NTRprojects]

Disclaimer: I was kindly informed that the saw blade seems to be mounted the wrong way around. Very good eye and I missed this detail during video editing. However, the saw blade is mounted the right way around. At first I also thought that the saw was turning the wrong way around, i.e. that I had wired the motor incorrectly. When I frantically ran back to my workshop to check it, the saw turned the right way around. And then I realized what had happened. And here is the explanation: The shutter speed of the camera and the rotation speed of the saw blade are overlapping in such a way that the camera always takes a picture when the saw has almost made another rotation. If you line up these pictures in a video like usual, it looks as if the saw is rotating in the wrong direction. You know this effect for example from car commercials where the wheels seem to turn backwards when driving forward or in videos of old propeller planes where the rotor seems to turn slowly in the wrong direction. There are countless explanatory videos on youtube, if you want to learn more about this. I wish you all a good start into the new year and hope you will tune in again for the next video.

It’s funny, when I watch your newest video I always say that this was your best one so far. But this was a gamechanger. I loved the animations while zinc plating and all of the love you gave this tool. You’re a freak, and I love you like that! Keep on going please! ❤️

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you thank you my boy. Don't know how to handle so many kind words out of your direction 😅 it was a blast yesterday and the Gulasch you made was over the top. Looking forward to meet again

[@danielburghardt947]

I think the same. A higher level has been taken with this restoration and the video itself. ...@NTRprojects sharing a Gulash with a friend and beers is life!

[@angrylittlespider4593]

Exactly! I congratulate the good doctor on his ever-improving practice!

[@lindakurgpold-digitalartis9981]

And it’s blue! Love it!💙

[@Trixtah]

4:05 - "oh no, I dropped it and it fell apart". I love these comedy edits, including the marching stop-motion parts from time to time.

[@blinkenlights]

A year later, and this remains one of the best restoration videos of all time. Between the creative vision, the talented restoration, the careful explanations, and the stellar editing, I keep getting drawn back to this video time and time again.

[@jillmenter5628]

Knowing nothing of tools, I watch your channel because you take the time to explain what you are doing and why. Your visuals are marvelous and humor is appreciated. This tool looks like it should be in a show room...just a lovely result.

[@robertcallahan9940]

I have to agree 100%. Your work is flawless

[@rallymax2]

I agree! Putting all the details in the CC is a great idea. More restoration channels should do this.

[@ฐิศิรักน์โพธิ์วิจิตร]

Thanks! 👍

Велика, кропітка робота, виконана естетично і з любов'ю до справи. Дякую, мені дуже сподобалось.

[@NTRprojects]

большое спасибо Валерий Малахов

[@saschma3543]

Wunderschöne Arbeit, wenn auch völlig falsche Farben für ein Festo(ol) Gerät. Aber das macht sie zum one of a kind Gerät. Wenn ich so ein Teil in die Finger kriegen könnte, wäre ich auch Feuer und Flamme. Viel Spaß damit und weiter so :-)

[@NTRprojects]

Hey hey ich habe lange überlegt und ich weiß Festool ist grün aber Festo eben himmelblau. War ne schwere Entscheidung

[@AnthonyCurreri]

That shine you got from that dull metal is amazing

[@NTRprojects]

Glad to hear that you liked it so much Anthony Curreri

[@MoldyStir-Fry]

I know someone, somewhere freaked out seeing you put that Bosch blade on a Festool saw 😂. Gorgeous final product!

[@NTRprojects]

Good call! Someone did in fact :D

[@j.l.emerson592]

Tools make me ridiculously happy. I used to buy old tools at yard sales & thrift stores. Those were some of the best purchases I have ever made. Old tools were made to a higher standard of quality. Yeah, I like the newest gadgets & gizmos but old tools are what really makes me happy. I almost feel a weird type of connection or continuity between me & the tool's previous owners. Woo-Hoo! 😁

[@NTRprojects]

Same here!

[@pehhii]

This is worthy for starting a series "Pimp my tool". Tool is looking gorgeous.

[@Absaalookemensch]

That's gorgeous. This is how it should have been made. Better than new.

[@DrHutOfHandcraft]

I am pretty much speechless after watching this. Seriously, next level! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@tombarlow6176]

A beautiful restoration of the old saw very neat

[@NTRprojects]

Thanks a lot for watching and commenting Tom Barlow

[@leahsdreams]

Beautiful machine for the 1960s. Festool has a great reputation, glad to see their history come back to life!

[@montanaylago]

Festo… ¡wow, fancy! And the cadillac style is even fancier

[@bennerdan]

You know, I've seen videos like this before. But you sir, make exceptional videos. Well done.

[@raymondhellberg3600]

Excellent - the outcome is so nice i would hesitate to use the saw... Love the finish of that knob!

[@williamtaylor6074]

Your best work yet! This was a joy to watch!

[@NTRprojects]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robertg.2346]

Superschöne Restaurierung einer fantastischen FESTO. Schmerz empfunden habe ich nur beim neuen Sägeblatt, da gehört ein Festool Sägeblatt drauf. 😉

[@NTRprojects]

Ja wenn der Euro mal wieder etwas lockerer sitzt kauf ich mir ein Festool Sägeblatt. Sind halt schon echt teuer

[@robertg.2346]

@@NTRprojects Das stimmt wohl, ist aber echte Spitzenqualität. Ich wollte auch gar nicht kritisieren, hätte mir nur besser gefallen. 😀

[@vinceianni4026]

Hello mister wonderful restoration beautifully restored well done

[@NTRprojects]

Many thanks!

[@freibier]

Really nice restoration! Just one point - the Festo tool company (Festool) usually has the green color, like the original lettering of the hand saw. The blue is the Festo color for the pneumatics company.

[@peterhenson6303]

Amazing transformation my friend! Practical and beauty all rolled into one!

[@mikegLXIVMM]

Not terrible at all. In fact, it is an awesome restoration!

[@NTRprojects]

[@alexanderalbach468]

Ich würde nicht wagen, die säge zu benutzen. Viel zu schön... Brilliantes video und was für ein Ergebnis! 🤗😍👍🏻

[@GeorgeLowrey]

That old but very high quality saw is like an old house that has good bones. Excellent restoration!

[@LadyLeigh]

As per usual you excel in your attention to detail and precision in a restoration. I love the 60’s (?) car colour too! Of course nothing would be complete without that special beer tasting. I am finding I look forward to that part even more now! You will have to try some Australian boutique beers, if you can find any in Europe. Great job!

[@stevepiechock9234]

A marvelous transformation. Job well done, and with respect for the history of the saw.

[@PiwnyBrodacz]

Now that's a proper Festo color ;D

[@evenberg8499]

Hats off to you, buddy. Prost !

[@MarkMeadows90]

I love the bright blue color and the polished bits with this saw. It definitely looks like a power tool from the 60s. Nicely done!

[@moshebron2105]

Beautiful work. Never thought a miter saw could be a piece of Art!!!

[@gymnosophist7471]

Nice one! At first I thought you were quenching the blued parts in beer! 😅. PS - the animations are great!

[@NTRprojects]

Pssssst that's my secret. Only I do the beer quenching for perfect results 🍻😅

[@TrueThiago]

What a beauty!

[@philiperrendesign8362]

Of all the Restoration Projects from youtube, yours are the best. You really have a perfect feeling for details and aesthetics.

The sanding and polishing transition was great. Happy new tool day.

[@zooobidooo]

Extremely satisfying, great video

[@NTRprojects]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@frankmurphy5]

I got bored of and unsubscribed to a few restoration channels. Yours is not one of them. Something about the care and effort you put in and the kind of guy I feel like you are all comes together just right. You deserve more subs. I'll pray to algorithm for you.

[@bluegecko6770]

Love the new animations

Wow NTR! This is one of those restoration videos in which the time and care you have taken really shines through, Mind blowing results for sure! 🤩 Love how this shows that not all tools belong in the bin and they can be restored to working order with time and care. You’re a real inspiration!! P.s Festool commented, that’s so cool 😎 Cheers Restore More (Drew)

Also, I love all the new tools you had on show for this video. Crazy what you need to invest in order to fix something sometimes! ‘Currently away to buy a band saw on Facebook marketplace’ 😂😂

Sehr entspanned, sich so ein Qualitätvideo anzuschauen. Sehr gut! Weiter so!

[@Alan_Edwards]

I am running out of adjectives to describe your work...how does "stellar" sound? Every time I see one of these tool videos it reminds me of some of my dad's old tools I just threw out when he passed. He had an old metal Craftsman skill saw he used for years to cut brick - he was a mason. It was still working some 30+ years later and deserved something like this. Oh well can't undo what was done. But it did make this one pretty special for me. Thanks for that.

[@johnmoorefilm]

merry Christmas and thank you for a year of great videos….(and beer!)😂
