Hello. This video may be 3 years old, but I just saw it today for the first time. Referred here by Steve Good of the Scrollsaw Workshop. I want to compliment you on this video. It was very enjoyable from beginning to end. The speed-up of the restoration process was at just right speed, and your voice-over was excellent: Enough detail to be interesting and explain what you were doing, and your voice was clear and understandable. (I mention these qualities because so many KZbin videos are clearly lacking in these areas.) In my opinion, restoring an old tool with the intention to use it is equally as satisfying to the viewer as watching someone restore a tool to museum-quality, so good for you for saving it from the landfill ! It would appear I have at least three years of videos to catch up on, so I'd better get started. I don't know what to expect except to say you set the bar high with this one so I am expecting more of the same. I wish you well.

@joelhollingsworth23742 жыл бұрын
You know, tools from before the age of mass manufacturing were built for the extreme long haul, and concepts like interchangeability had only just made their way into firearms technology for the Civil War, let alone planned obsolescence. 17th Century and earlier books on woodworking show Joseph and Jesus using tools from the author's era: I think the big surprise would be how niche this sort of tool has become.

What a treasure!! A couple of thoughts. A wire brush to remove surface rust, then "season" it like cast iron cookware. Once seasoned, then the BLO sealer. And for the wood, I once heard (for BLO finishing): one coat per day for a week, one coat a week for a month, one coat a month for a year, and then one coat annually. You didn't show it, but, hope you greased the axles and pivot points. For the leather belt, I think I'd've done a saddle soap cleaning prior to a liquid leather conditioner (like Bick 4) and then the beeswax based finish. Amazing to've found the belt still in serviceable condition!
@paulosborne65174 жыл бұрын
Yes! I like this - by bringing this back to life as a working tool, it'll gain a whole other generation of history and patina that only adds to its story. A much more satisfying fate than being some unused show-piece. ALSO - awesome doggo! We need more 'Oots'.

Not only 3M is a dream partner (congrats for that!), but the restoration was tasteful, you've managed to keep the soul of the machine while still bringing it back to life. Seeing you tightening those old screws on the top was a bit of a nail biter, I was kind of expecting them to fail, but I'm glad they didn't.
