1800's Tobacco Cutter Restoration
This video is about restoration and repair a 1800's tobacco cutter. While disassembling this cutter, we noticed a crack on the cast iron body and fixed with welding. The blade is too rusty to cut the material it is supposed to, but our sharpening technique made it quite sharp (see the test on a piece of paper). We forgo any tobacco products here for a subjective test.
Needless to point out that safety comes first. So, if you would like to do any sort of technical jobs using tools and machines, roll up your sleeves but please be advised that you need to have proper gears, protections and experience.

You made good progress to a certain point, but then Reedy, why didn't you sharpen the blades?
That was a lot of work on a 10 dollar ratchet. It does look nice
Spectacular work.
How can I get the blade replacement? Any seller recommendations??
I’ve seen some cutting the blade dimensions out of a cleaver. Then drill holes to lock in the cutter.
I watch these videos and next day I'm out in my garage wiping all my tools down, organizing, spritzing with oil, etc... Good stuff.
Pass
Alot of work for such an inexpensive wrench. Its better now than they made it in the first place
Wow!
Gotta say… looks awful… hopefully your restoration skills have improved since then lol specifically the handle.. jsut no… and the lack of fit finish on the metal.. (the pits and marks).
Why are you using Water Displacement when there's no water to displace?
Another great restoration.
Awesome job! That thing is better than new!
I was thinking someone out there would have a video! You Sir, did not disappoint! I been debating on taking a pair apart and resurfacing, I have a bad habit of working in the rain and leaving my snips on the jobsite. They look 10yrs old from the rust, I hit them with penetrating oil, and did a light surface sanding using a dremel tool. I didn't disassemble these tho, kind of lazy right now and they are back to sliding freely, cool video man, thumbs up!
That handle turned out great ..as the rest just handle would have left many stumped
Really great restoration 👍 nickle coaching is interesting 👍
GREAT SOUND EDITING !!! GREAT WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Parts looked a lot like Snap-on…wonder if you could’ve tried swapping to see if they’d fit..
That grip would go straight in the bin. Turning one out of hardwood on the lathe would have been better
Talk about polishing a turd. You just can't turn a sows ear into a silk purse but thanks for giving it a try.
I didnt see you sharpen or test then
He didn't as far as I could tell. He didn't heat the handles before putting the grips on either.
I think we can all critisize this video till ends time.. but at least he made something inexpensive and useable.. none of he steps seemed super expensive or time consuming. So for people watching it may be a step for them to note on and maybe go out and master themselves.
I just bought an antique tobacco cutter! Mine is a different brand and I don’t have all the cool tools to restore it but hopefully I’ll be able to get some rust off with CLR or something else. Thanks for your video.
I’m planning to restore one as its also relevant to work and hobby. But getting a lathe soon, so think I’ll wait. It’s hard choosing one but I def want the RJR. Afraid of big cracks since I don’t have welding experience. But can always take it to one I guess. I could have sent a nice plug of tobacco to cut too. lol
Absolutely gorgeous restoration! Thanks for sharing! ARCO
Impresionante
To anyone watching this and unaware of chrome plated tools. ** WARNING….. chrome is an exceedingly dangerous substance. If you breathe in the particles (due to wire brushing or sanding) make sure you have the proper mask and the area is ventilated!! So be careful people… it can give you respiratory disease or cancer.
Holy smokes, that was well done, sir!
Nice one
I recently did a couple of these, wing nuts and bolts for the blade attachment, yet to see if they are in the way, but otherwise seems like a good idea.
Wow nice, you spent more money restoring the handle than what the ratchet cost new!
My dad has been a plumber forever, he uses the same pipe cut today and since he started working when he was young. Greetings from Mexico
That handle came out way better than I expected. A low-end ratchet perhaps, but it will do the job for someone...
Super cool well done.

Hello, what is the name of the red lubricant?
Nice to see someone spray the handles the colour they're supposed to be for once.

Missing the red pinstripe!
Gorgeous! I recently picked up the exact same pipe cutter. Now I'm motivated to restore it.
Cool. Can't wait to see the result :)
Comment! :)
:))
It was Japaning NOT PAINTED!! (Japanning gives you the texture of a thick coating that can not be duplicated by simply grabbing a can of Krylon and spray a bunch of layer. Makes a very hard durably finish!)So, do it right to say you have restore it!! What you doing is repair!!
Thank you for your comment. Japanning is an old trick basically to prevent cast iron againt rust. While it was a good trick for sure at the time, it won't be as protective as a primer and paint cover. I think they would prefer ours if they had access to. :)
Calm down there too

Aww task force, a fairly cheap budget brand. Thanks for the video but I do wonder why bother on a cheap ratchet like this one when you could restore a old craftsman, snapon or some other higher quality brand.
Amazing 👍
Thank you!
Good job
Excelente trabalho. Parabéns 👏👏
Why didn't you sharpen it? A dull saw is kind of pointless.
Great restoration, nice colour and a new subscriber.
Thank you :)
