WWII Flashlight with Rust Holes - Restoration

I bought this World War II German Flashlight. The model is Daimon Telko Trio. It was a common typo flashlight the Germans used. It is a bit rusty and the traps on the back were completely gone. Later I also found that the rust had even amde some holes that needed to be fixed. This project took me forever to finish due to so many phases and filming makes everything many times slower. I even made a 40 minute version of the project to my Patreon page. It has a few extra scenes and clips.
I began by disassembling the flashlight. Everything was riveted together so I needed to drill a lot of the rivets out. This type of rivets were not easy to find and only ones I found were in a bag of 500pcs and the price was 50€ ($54). So I made my own rivets. I also used a rotary tool to remove pins with peened ends.
For making the rivets I needed some custom tools but that can be seen on the video but basically I cut pieces of brass tube of correct size. After this I used the tools to widen one end of the tube into a funnel like shape. This funnel was then hammered flat to create a rivet very similar to the original ones. A pop rivet could have been used but I don't thin it would have been a good choise from restoration perspective.

The red light is for looking at something at night, without limiting your eyes' night vision adaptation. If you use a white light at night, and then turn it off you will be mostly blinded for several minutes until your eyes adapt to the dark again. Red light does not cause that effect.

23:56 : I could imagine that the red light was used in combination with the "shield" in front of the lamp to read maps etc. as discreetly as possible. Red light has very little energy and it's being used by photographers in their darkrooms (so the image won't be exposed to light) and even by hobby astronomers like myself at night to keep my eyes adapted to the darkness. It's amazing to see the process - or one could even say transformation - of refurbishing old hardware to a state of which you could barely distinguish if it's brand new or the rusty thing from the beginning of the video. Keep up with your great content!

[@buzzkillzine8536]

I was thinking the same but for the blue light. They use blue lights backstage in theatres so they can't be seen during blackouts and scene changes.

came here hoping to see a comment like this. I served in the military and can confirm we only used red light for map reading at night. the light emitted doesn't travel that far compared to say white light. Downside to using red light however is missing contour lines dependant on the scale of the maps being read, topographical information can sometimes be lost.

That light bulb is using an incandescent filament, and was already with the lamp he was restoring, assuming it was still working - we have come a long way from Tomas Edison’s originally invented filament light bulb, and now have a far superior one called a light-emitting-diode - smaller, uses far less electricity, and comes in a variety of packages and colours. Fortunately that light bulb is appropriate in this antique WW2 lamp that he restored 😉

My husband: What are you watching? Do you need to repair anything? Me: No, I love to watch this kind of videos. I have learned a lot and because I love History, I enjoy to see old artifacts been restored with so much attention, dedication and professionalism.

[@srlsigns7944]

“Best Relaxing ASMR” channel is stealing all of your videos. Their description says they make these videos.

[@KillerKoifish]

I'll report their videos :P

[@srlsigns7944]

Tantalizing Toast thank you and keep the videos coming!

[@KillerKoifish]

@@srlsigns7944 hey lol checked it out they gave odd tinkering credit in the description no worries it's cool

[@srlsigns7944]

Tantalizing Toast that’s great! Probably all of the comments your fans left them the last few months. Keep up the great work!

[@THEPELADOMASTER]

@@KillerKoifish it's most definitely not ok. They're uploading full videos from someone else and monetizing them. That's stealing, my friend, no matter how much credit you give them. They're profiting from someone else's content

6:57 thats some good looking spaghetti sauc- wait a damn minute 😑

[@danbuchner28]

This was outstanding! You even saved a piece of history.

[@mr.v4486]

I think the handmade rivets was the correct answer. Feels more genuine looking, good call.

[@lenny_1369]

Beware of people in the comment sections saying "wanna be friends", don't like or interact with them because it might get your channel possibly hacked. Stay cautious everyone and stay safe, ALWAYS wash your hands.

[@xylashood6875]

Wanna be friends?

[@SqueezeboxOfDelights]

Look, I know you use tomato sauce to remove rust and corrosion, but don't you think filling in holes with cream cheese is going a little bit too far...? Edit: woooaah I’ve never got 70+ likes on a comment before!

[@BlyndSyde]

Perhaps some Ricotta would be more to your liking. A light dusting of parmesan to follow up.

[@SqueezeboxOfDelights]

@@BlyndSyde hmm. That sounds better...

[@BlyndSyde]

@@SqueezeboxOfDelights lol

[@SqueezeboxOfDelights]

@@BlyndSyde I do like a good bit of parmesan.

[@darthrevan2063]

The fact that you can still find/get batteries that fit this is amazing In it’s self. Soo cool

[@ziergds]

As always, very entertaining and educational. Outstanding work with that restoration.

[@krealil]

6:54 Soooo thats where te taco Bell souce is made

[@jonvincentmusic]

"I made my own rivets". My Mechanics? Is that you?

[@PunchingBallWirefly]

Haha :p He has a long way to go before reaching MyMechanics's level.

[@Balderoni_]

@@PunchingBallWirefly Maybe, but also have to give credit for OddTinkering to continue doing this, when you watch his videos from the beginning until now, he has improved much, and I think this is what restoring is in the end, learning by doing it 😉👍🏻

[@PunchingBallWirefly]

@@Balderoni_ Absolutely ^^ Sorry for my lack of tact :-)

[@DavidPlass]

"I make a new one"

[@zoltantoth3219]

Can't be. He would polish the rivets too :)

[@donaldstotmeister3838]

All I can say is WOW. That's amazing. Keep making videos please.

[@willcamick]

Well done and im happy he showed it turning on in the dark as iv seen countless restoration where they don't.

[@roramdilxerx6646]

I just wonder where you get these stuff.

[@OddTinkering]

A lot I buy online but also I some I get from flea markets and rarely even find something from trash etc. I takes a lot of time to search for new items

[@mikesmit7496]

Next question is it sold or is it kept somewhere safe

[@nebicone7608]

Mike Smit good question

[@My_Op]

@@OddTinkering Same question here: do you sell this restored items?

[@larsjacobs2341]

Yeah I was wondering that too

[@HarryH987]

5:56 since when is putting metal in tomato sauce a thing?

[@OddTinkering]

It's rust sause. Really good for you if you have low iron hemoglobin. (It's a joke, although iron tablets usually actually have the red form of rust)

[@HDico2013]

Amazing! I actually think I had one of these to play with as a kid.

[@cunnyfunt30]

Another excellent restoration, the effort and care you put into your projects is second to now. Superb

[@wexi4123]

I am 15 and when i was 6 I had this. My deceased grandpa gave it to me :)

[@Jumphouse2]

If I ever find myself in a really tight jam I'm going to have to ask myself "What would this guy do?"

[@moeeemonroe2246]

Absolutely beautiful! Love your restoration ❤️

[@TechnaDesign]

I enjoyed your restoration! And thank you for the real time footage. 🙂
