Rusty Eyeletter Restoration

[@DavidJones-vh5py]

One thing about watching restoration videos around the world is seeing things I've never heard of before or different styles by different manufacturer's it's wonderful to see the outcome

[@randomrestoration6858]

Today I aquired a cardboard can of "Bates Ajax Eyelets". I read up on them, their history, etc, but wanted to come see the machine that they were used in in action. I certainly got more than I bargained for with this video. I love it, and I really love the color you picked. I think they're so much cooler than Staplers. I love the fact that you can tell if important documents have been tampered with once an eyelet has been used. Does anyone still manufacture the eyelets?

[@randomrestoration6858]

Thanks a lot! I'd like to add that I did an on-video test of this eyelet press at the end of my video titled "Old Rusty 1902 Eyelet Press Restoration." You can still find Bates eyelets on their website, and there are many other companies out there manufacturing different sized eyelets of many colors. Thanks a lot for watching!

[@donnaharvey138]

My husband builds wind flags for bench rest shooting and the tail/vane is .0079 thick aluminum. A length of servers tape is attached to the tail/vane with a metal clip. Without some protection, the consistent movement would damage the tail/vane and as a minimum enlarge the hole. He has been using a Bates 40 for many years for this application and no failures yet and it looks good. Just saw one on eBay in real good shape that sold for $30, considering that they retail for over $300.

[@randomrestoration6858]

Very cool, thank you very much for the background! These things are definitely solid built, I'm sure he'll get many years more use out of it.

Really nice restoration! I happen to have one of these that I’d like to restore.. at least so it’s working correctly again (the part that looks like a bicycle bell doesn’t advance correctly). I’m hoping taking it apart and cleaning it will reveal the reason why it’s not advancing. Anyway, Do you know if Bates eyelets are really the only eyelets that will work in this machine?

[@randomrestoration6858]

Sorry for the late reply, but I'd suspect you could find other eyelets that would work in this. The trick is finding correct sized eyelets, as slightly too small or large sizes wouldn't work reliably. Good luck on the repair, hopefully you'll be able to g bring yours back to a working condition! Thanks a lot for watching!

Thanks for the question! Effectively what this does is presses/crimps in a small metal ring, usually into cloth/leather (though it can be used for a wide variety of things such as binding sheets of paper together) the center is removed and allows a string/lace to be passed through the fabric and, for example, be tightened without wearing the fabric.

[@randomrestoration6858]

@@RCichard Thanks for the reply! I actually tried out a couple different methods last weekend for an upcoming project that you'll see on the channel in several weeks. I found that using a very fine needle (the type of needle used for injection) filed with paint allows you to be able to apply as little paint as possible quite accurately in recessed areas. Then (after a few minutes of drying) any small amounts of paint that ended up where you didn't want it can be gently wiped up with a super low lint cloth. It's a pretty quick method and the results are fantastic!

@@randomrestoration6858 Why you do not clean projects before you take them apart?

[@randomrestoration6858]

A bit late responding, but I find that, as a general rule, whatever I am working on can be pretty easily disassembled without cleaning them beforehand. I usually only clean them after paint stripping just so that I can remove any excess paint stripper before throwing the parts into the rust remover. The paint strippers I've used in the past are great for cutting through most any filth like grease for example, and so I guess the long answer short is: It's a bit more efficient to clean the parts later on in the process.

I always bake the painted metal parts in the oven at 90-100 degree C for an hour. It gives a better paint quality.
