Old Enterprise - Restoration

Welcome to today's video, this time we have a beautiful cast iron hand grinder from Enterprise Manufacturing Company that was destroyed in transit.
The owner of this mill wanted to preserve the original condition as much as possible.
The mill is from the end of the 19th century and was manufactured by the American company Enterprise Manufacturing Company in the state of Pennsylvania.
The company was founded in 1864 and operated until 1956 when it was bought by the Silex company.
The company produced a large number of different grinders in different sizes and for grinding different raw materials such as coffee, corn, shells, bones, meat and others.
The grinder is 30 cm high, has two large wheels with a diameter of 22 cm with spokes resembling petals. One wheel is equipped with a wooden handle.
A cast-iron body is placed between the wheels, the upper part of which is a hopper, in the middle part there is a hinge, and when opened, the grinding mechanism is revealed, which is attached to the axis between the wheels.
In the lower part there is a drawer for the ground raw material.
And that's all for today's video. Thanks for watching.
If you liked the video and would like to see more interesting content, give us your subscription, like, share with friends and write a comment.
I look forward to seeing you again next time :)

As a small child my mom would send me and my big sister through the woods to this little ole store by an old dirt road to get her coffee and bread. It was run by a old couple who owned it for years, the woman made her own bread for customers, I remember her having one of those machine sitting on the countertop, and the smell of warm bread and the coffee grinding always smelled so good to me. Your beautiful restoration brought back a wonderful memory I had almost forgotten thank you! :)

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Wow, that must have been great unlike nowadays when it's just a department store... Thanks Debra :)

[@sergc7205]

The owner's dedication to preserving its original condition is truly admirable.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

👉👍😉

[@churlepatakha]

It will be unfair not to call you a perfectionist! A wonderfully executed restoration.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Wow, thank you very much Shahid :)

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Lovely restoration, Radek. The paint job was outstanding and the weathering was spot on. I didn't think that wheel was salvageable, but you did an awesome job. Veronica, thanks once again for the explanation, history, and demonstration. Thank you both!

[@Facetiously.Esoteric]

Thank you for painting it correctly. That white was killing me.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much :)

Привет! У вас получилось на много лучше оригинала! Вот помол у этой мельницы самый отличный, через экран так и пахнуло молотым кофе! Вам интересных находок! Всем добра!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Привет, спасибо за просмотр Дмитрий :)

[@georgebrown8312]

Amazing how you welded that broken cast iron wheel on that coffee mill and got the whole unit working right again. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much George :)

[@nenaelliott8058]

Beautiful restoration of antique coffee grinder. I've only seen this one in books. It's amazing. You've done a superb job on it.. 👍👍❤️❤️

I love the aged/distressed look of this project! Beautifully done.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

I'm glad, thank you Donald :)

[@costrio]

I like it when you use a flash screen when arc welding. Easier on my tired old eyes. ;-) Thank you!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you 😉

[@willieckaslike]

Another triumph ! Many thanks to you both.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

We thank you Willie :)

Thank you Larry :)

[@neilmorten6416]

Another fabulous restoration, and a lovely history lesson. Thank you.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much Neil :)

[@thie1161]

Gusseisen schweissen, das ist schon was, was nicht jeder kann. Respekt

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Danke Thomas. Nicht jedes Gusseisen funktioniert so, etwa 80 Prozent von dem, was ich in die Finger bekam, ließen sich so schweißen.

[@georgeremedios3915]

Thank you for your restoration. I'm from Philadelphia and it warms my heart to see a beautiful piece of history made better.🇺🇲🦅

[@VeradonaRestoration]

I'm glad George, thank you :)

[@michaelalferes7244]

Wondeful! The antique finish is awesome! Thanks from Oregon, USA.

That's nice, thank you from the Czech Republic Brenda :)

[@patientorlando1306]

What an epic paint job! This 'ole girl is now proudly wearing her Victorian era industrial charm to the fullest🥰 Love the colours, and your superb restoration and video skills. Thank you Radek!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

You mean Veronica 🤔Lol . Thank you :)

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

A very interesting item. You nailed the restoration.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thanks for the first comment Wiley :)

[@tnxstaff]

MASTERPIECE!

[@harryhamilton298]

I would say the owner will get back a mill in much better condition! What a great job repairing the wheel and a great color scheme.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you Harry, the current owner was at our place after unpacking the package that was sent, he was quite surprised. The carrier distinguished himself. Since a complaint abroad is quite complicated, we chose the repair route.

[@Mdgirlterrie]

Great save and beautiful work!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much :)

[@joseluizmariote6640]

Congratulations Radek and Veronica for another excellent restoration. 👏👏 a hug.

Extraordinario trabajo, no podría ser menos.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Gracias Francisco :)

[@MarrockV]

I'm going to be really honest with you here... the real reason I watch these videos is just to see your wife smile at the end... Don't get me wrong, the resto work is great, but that smile gets me every time.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Yes I understand, he got me 28 years ago too :)

[@honzazenisek2816]

Muito obrigado Luiz Henrique :)

[@andresdelafuente3783]

Muy bien hecho!!👍🙂

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Gracias :)

[@marchills4131]

Was wondering if not puttying and smoothing the uneven cast metal was a mistake, but the way you used that along with the weathered paint effect to give it that patina is just perfect. Bravo!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you Marc :)

[@vzjtothalo1]

Great restoration and a nice weathered/used finish.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much John :)

Once again you have resurrected a Phoenix from the ashes to become a collector’s piece. Not even the gorillas at the shipping company can defeat you . And another well researched backstory to complete the saga. Keep up the good work, I really look forward to your presentations.

[@costrio]

Nice work. I like the extra wheel that provides balance and behaves like a fly wheel increasing inertia. Interesting to see the antique finishing process.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

I'm glad, thank you :)

[@samanthadean1083]

Beautiful job!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@nineteenandfortyone]

Very good work! That work platform did a nice job of keeping the wheel true. You certainly do justice to old items.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much :)

[@Granddad92]

Looks fantastic, great job. I'm impressed every time I see you weld cast metal.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

I'm glad David. For the most part, I can weld cast iron because of this, but when it contains a lot of carbon, it doesn't work that way. Fortunately, this is the case for about ten percent. Thank you David for watching, greetings from the Czech Republic :)

[@paulhiggins8774]

Great job, I can smell the coffee from here 😉

[@VeradonaRestoration]

I'm glad my friend, thank you :)

[@Aleksander_Grigorjev]

Привет из Петербурга! С начала, если честно, я подумал, что реставрация будет в этот раз немного скучноватой. НО! Радек, как Вы оформили большие колёса -это было великолепно. Ну а за нанесение шпатлёвки с помощью губки - отдельное спасибо! Я сам бы не догадался. А в конце, мне кажется, я даже почувствовал запах кофе. Браво!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Спасибо Александр :)

[@DH-ds5mg]

An amazing paint job. I have always been amazed by the steady hand to paint the lettering.

[@VeradonaRestoration]
