WONDERFUL Restoration of a Wrought Iron Screwdriver - Oktoberfest Special

Hey if you want to support me, you can become my patreon or invite me for a virtual beer:

In this video I restore a wrought iron screwdriver. The antique tool is partially forged. It is very rusted and cracked on several spots. A tool restoration is necessary.
I got it for a small fee on eBay. The restoration includes woodcarving and polishing sequences. It was a lot of fun, but way more work than expected, since I got some route blocks on the way.
I think the result looks somewhat medieval, but see for yourselfs.
Thee beertasting is an oktoberfest special of course!
So I'm happy the project is done and the video is ready. I hope you enjoy my content.

You have great instincts and the skill to restore. Your dad is probably thinking, "now, son, why would you devote so much time and energy to an old otherwise worthless screwdriver!" Excellent job. I almost bypassed this video (I watch other restoration and repair videos), and this video is top notch. Right up there with the best of them. I am glad your dad assisted in the weld--this was crucial to the restoration. Don't ever skimp on performing quality work in all you do as many others fail to do. I love beer as well. Cheers!

[@NTRprojects]

This comment made me emotional. Thank you Videlicet that really made my day and such reactions make it worth to do the extra hussel working on a project while trying to capture it on camera at the same time. Have a great day. I hope to hear from you again. Cheers mate

finally!! another restoration channel that shows real natural rust! instead of the multitude of channels that are ''faking'' their rust first before doing their therefore also fake resto, I thought Hand tool rescue was one of the few, but now I have found another good channel (I always get so pissed off by faked rust!!)

[@NTRprojects]

Same Here, but it's not easy to find those projects 😊 welcome to the channel btw

[@buzzlacy]

I love that you essentially do your work with common-place tool.! I'm inspired by your work. It makes me feel like I can give these types of restorations a go. Thank you!

[@arvindsahai552]

Now it became a vintage piece to be put in a show case. Great work

[@jamesharryward5595]

Absolutely stunning ......

[@misterpatina]

It’s really impressing with how many, amazing techniques you gave this Tool a Second life. It’s also really impressing how much you improve your skills vid by vid. Im sure you’ll get the 1M subscribers one day, please keep up with your unique, amazing style! And a big shout-out to your dad, who’s in for the rescue welding! Respect!

[@NTRprojects]

I can't handle your nice words. Thank you so much

[@Oliverdobbins]

With that studded patina part and dagger-like shaft, it’s a warrior’s screwdriver!

[@whatwouldbettysay7246]

Family help for the win!

[@NTRprojects]

Yes definitely. I am lucky

[@TheParkAttendant]

Hello to my cousins in Germany! It was a great restoration and the handle turned out beautifully.

[@rosellabill]

I personally do not need to see all seconds of your video Sir. I love your ability to do what you do. And the beer is a cool part of your videos.

[@ivanstiles7030]

That is a beautiful screwdriver. Awesome restoration. From trash to family heirloom.

[@j.l.emerson592]

I attended the opening day of Oktoberfest in Muenchen in 1995. I witnessed the Tapping of the Keg, then went on to enjoy tasting many great beers, wines, brats, etc. Overall, a great day! The screwdriver you restored is also a hammer... The metal cap on the end of the handle is actually a hammer head. I have a modern version of that kind of screwdriver, except the handle is plastic instead of wood. A great item to have when you're up on a ladder & don't want to climb down to get a hammer.

[@DJWerkz]

Your Dad is such a highly skilled professional, I knew that as soon as I saw him wearing sandals in his workshop lol

[@marileestetson737]

Wow! The screwdriver is far to pretty to use outside, better for indoor use...or maybe on display as an antique. The woodwork you do is amazing. I've never seen lamination so beautifully done. As for the Kitchen Aid mixer, those knobs were such a beautiful touch.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you Marileen (beautiful name bte) I promise I won't use it outside

[@rlm98253]

Extremely well done, sir.

[@NTRprojects]

I like your comments. They are similar but always different 😊

[@scroungasworkshop4663]

Your video made me happy and sad as my Dad was always there when I needed help and he was a very good welder. He passed away 25 years ago but I still miss him especially when I get stuck on a project. But I have my son and he always rings me when he’s stuck and my normal response is “bring it over”. Now I know how my dad must have felt as it makes me so happy that I’m the first person he turns to and he thinks I can fix anything. It also gives us time together and we get to have a good laugh and talk. Like your dad, I have plenty of my own projects to do but I’m never to busy to help him. You did a beautiful job on the screwdriver especially with the limited tools you have. I know that it took an enormous amount of hours to do but the final result was worth the effort. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

[@NTRprojects]

Oh Stuart now you made my sentimental. I think it's great that you pass on to your son what you're dad what your father taught you. I wish you many nice projects to come

When I planned it, I only thought about the layers seen from the side and it was later when I figured, that the effect would be nice from top view, if I sand of a little more

[@keithspencersr.6806]

They need to make old screwdrivers and other old style hand tools like this again, if not for only collector’s items.

[@NTRprojects]

Yes yes yes. Like special editions.

[@Kwaq84]

I have to disagree, but let me explain first. These old tools were made, because there was need for such a tool (obviously). They were made in such a way that was available back then. When technology changed (evolved), so did the tools. Moreover, tools need to be made according to norms and safety standards. They also need to be price oriented, because most people will buy cheaper one. Most buyers need a tool to make some work, not for it to look good. There's also one other dilemma - 'vintage'ness. When a product become vintage? It need to have some age to it at least. It needs to be made in "good ol' ways"; bonus points if it's hand made. If there's a story behind it, even better. New tools won't be hand made, because that's way too inefficient on a larger scale. Even if you would pre-produce components for it, assembly still would take too long. Such a tool, produced for a large scale, would also be way less desired as a designer piece - by being too common, mass produced and new. Nowadays that's a work for passionates, who will make such tool for order, more as collectibles, yet with usability as well. That's the only way for such a piece to have that "something", what makes it unique. Take "Hand Tool Rescue" wrenches and screwdrivers for example. Those are the tools you and I referring to ;)

[@keithspencersr.6806]

I still would love a set.

[@NTRprojects]

@@Kwaq84 I do understand the concept of lean production and I know that such tools wouldnt be the best sellers on amazon. Yet I'm sure that a collectors edition of handmade tools with a classic design and a very high quality would sell today as a premium market product.
