Beautiful work as always ❤️
so this is where you found your scrapyard idea.
👋🏻
Well now... fancy seeing you here! 😆
EYYYY I WATCH YOU
A rare bird appeared
Make sure the metal body on your drill is always isolated from you. I personally knew someone who got "frozen" by a metal cased drill when he hit an electrical cable in a wall. Someone tripped on his power cord and saved his life. He laid down on a table and wept from the pain in his muscles. Use rubber gloves when using that drill. Nowadays, electric drills almost always have plastic bodies.
The Ixion was German company founded by Otto Häfner in 1919 and they went bankrupt in 2011, I read this from some auction description, which included drillpress made by them. Apparently they also made milling machines and such.
Häfner die auch die ganzen Zimmerei Maschinen hergestellt haben? Ich habe noch nen Kettenstemmer von denen. Stationäre Maschine. Richtig geiles Teil fuer diverse Anwendungen. Sogar Schlitze fuer Fitschbänder kann man damit machen.. 👍👍👍👌😃
I love seeing old things restored.
same
Especially german machines
Go back and get the compactor and fit an electric motor to it. You’ll have friends for life that will owe you a favour because you lent them your compactor. I bought a good quality petrol compactor cheap because the motor was using a LOT of oil. I rebuilt the little Subaru motor on it which was cheap and easy for me to do but I only use it twice a year to re- pack my gravel driveway so I’m happy to lend it out to my family and friends rather than leave it sitting in my shed. That gets me a few favours done and it’s so convenient not having to hire one.
I just love these videos. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
I work in a company that makes AEG products. Products actually developed by AEG. The license to them is now owned by ABB. What we make is low voltage (sub 1kV) industrial distribution boards and motor control centers. So AEG is still alive to some extent. :) My company is called "Switchgear AB" and is located in Sweden. :)
Hi,
That kind of blowers are used in gas water heating furnaces, and normally get replaced when bearing noise gets too loud. It's quite possible that noise does not seem too bad, when fan is run alone, as it's not in normally-very-quiet environment in somebody's house.
The other factor is when whole furnace gets replaced because more efficient one is installed, but then you would find it as a unit, not a blower alone.
Once again it's my favorite series on UA-cam.
Agreed.

There is something sculptural about that old drill press. It’s really a thing of beauty after it’s restoration!
I rememmber my dad goying to switzerland , goying to every srcap yard , getting everything he could !
Now i have so much stuff in my garage , all the tools and stuff is from scrap yard , i love your vids !
Keep it up !
About the pump , it's pretty recent considering the presence of the CE symbol , either if we have been in Europe for twenty years we have started to put some symbols of certification only ten years ago or so, strange enough it's missing the IMQ sign which is instead a standard for heavy duty, expensive equipment, even the btcino plugs have it.
Em. That‘s in Germany.
@@danielmunch9568 Nahh .. my grandpa has worked over 20 years in switzerland .. so my dad was gathering stuff from scrap yards , and my grandpa also !
That drill press isn't just a useful machine it's a piece of art. No attention is paid to aesthetics like that anymore.
The drill press is beautiful. A few years ago I purchased a Hamilton Beach Model G mixer for a dollar or two. I think the G was made in the 1950s. It came with the original stand, turntable, large Pyrex bowl, and double beater. It handles tough jobs with ease. Depending on the care the mixer gets, the heavy all metal appliance could conceivably provide useful service to someone another seventy years from now.
The drill sounded a bit suspicious to me. Like maybe the bearings need to be changed. Great video as always. 👍
Agreed
@@charlesangell_bulmtl Electrical motors of that era always sound a little bit scratchy. It's not scratching tough, but sparks, caused by the motor brushes. You can hear that scratching sound on modern brush motors too, it's just not that prominent.
The bearings in this machine are probably just oil impregnated bronze bushings. They don't wear out and fail catastrophically like ball and roller bearings, they just get sloppy.
You might be right, but I think what you're hearing is the gear reduction drive assembly. Note the manufacturer decided to use a straight cut profile.
The teeth on the gears are straight cut and that is most likely the sound you are hearing. Modern tools use helical gears which are much quieter.
16:00 nice to see you got to the drill I gave you :D
Btw: I never drilled anything hard with it because I was too afraid that thing would break my hand if the drill got stuck. These grip designs on old drills are somehow infamous for injuries like that...
Can it turn backward? Looks indeed dangerous to use without slip clutch :)
I have direct experience with a N American drill similar to that one. My dad and I almost broke our hands when it caught.
Ladytron no it can’t
The only safe way to use an old beast like this is to have a second person standing ready to turn the power off (or pull the plug) before the thing twists your arm into a pretzel.
The widow maker drill
Every time you scan the piles of Goodness I see something I actually need at this time. How Frustrating.
same here :D
Know the feeling...
Makes me jealous because we don't have a scrapyard worth a shit near me.
Same here.
Same here, also here in the UK they will not let you buy electrical stuff, health and bloody safety!!!!
It's good to see all these old Tools, Pumps & Machinery etc being restored/refurbished & then used, there's a lot of life left in these items 👍
The pillar drill actually draws and soothes my eyes! Wonderful minimalist functional design!
My wive's uncle told me that AEG nowadays stands for "Auspacken, Einschalten, Geht nicht."
For everyone else Unpack - switch on - does not work
with my limited German vocabulary, you just made me chuckle, well played ,sir.
AEG in case of power tools you see now are a TTI owned brand (Milfaukee, Ryobi, Ridgid and so on). im suspecting that AEG is just a Ridgid tool, but for EU market.
@@firesurfer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that old hand drill is crazy good, what a great find
You have a keen eye for spotting metal working equipment vs woodworking! Metal working tools can be used for wood, but the other way around. Tolerances to work wood are not as exacting as metal. Wood machines also run at higher speeds without the need for torque.
It is also fortunate to have friends that acquire rare tools for you, aka the heavy-duty hand drill. Nice show although I have noticed that your main skills and interests are in electronics theory and application. Thank You
Macht mir sehr viel Freude wie alte Geräte wieder ein neues Leben finden. Lieber Gruss aus Kapstadt
From 0:00 to 01:20 is almost poetic and certainly profound. I know many DIY source from China for low-cost, but as we can see in your video, these items stand for more than quality, they stand for a purpose that goes beyond the tool itself, to the builder and back to the tool to help humans over several lifetimes. If any is ECO, it’s the pride and craftsmanship of these wonderful iconic machines. I’m so happy you’re doing what you’re doing! I often e-cannibalize electronics from recycling bins, and I’m amazed what perfectly good and innovative gear is disposed in working condition. Some just need a bit of love to get going. If I had the space, I’d be also trying to do what you’re doing with these fine, almost indestructible, tools.
Great job Sir. 👍
I read an article in an old Hot Rod magazine that said we never really own cars. It's just our turn to take care of them for a while. We are the caretakers of the machine. We are the keepers of the iron.
And you Sir are the best example of that. I salute you.
He does well!!!
Exactly! Instead of our throw away economy we seem to have embraced, which is sad and maddening! I for one really appreciate your ethic! Thanks for the videos!
That pump was a great find. Usually they cut the cords on floor samples so people don't steal them. It was probably from a shop that went out of business
If it helps, the drill used that two jaw chuck because that is the standard chuck for hand drills. (Brace and Bit) Like most electric versions, they simply added a motor to existing hand tools.
Awesome video! Your restoration work is very inspiring. This particular video was pure nostalgia. I used to live near an AEG factory 20 yrs ago in, wait for it, India! My dad was an employee there for decades. Also in the same area was the local airport, several defence establishments, an air-force manufacturing hub and also the Indian space agency (ISRO). This AEG factory was a collaboration between a state-run company and AEG, within a huge 240 acre campus!! I vaguely remember huge transformers and industrial induction motors being built there to supply other factories all across the country. I could tell even back then that the stuff was damn good. Incredibly well engineered, extremely well built and superb finishing. There was definitely an aura (of a good kind) around those old state run factories. Of course once our nation went full-scale capitalist, it meant the end of most state run factories. The factory was closed and the land sold as it was prime real estate. Now there's a 5-star luxury hotel where the old AEG factory used to be.
Now I make my own motors from 3d printed parts 😂
Times have changed so rapidly!
Keep up the wonderful content, two thumbs up every time 👍👍
I am a brand new subscriber to your channel. I really enjoy seeing old equipment being saved, lovingly restored and used again. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Kind regards

Ich LIEBE diese Repair-A-Ton videos! Es ist so schön zu sehen, wie diese alten Schätze wieder zum leben erweckt werden. Es ist eine Schande was hier auf den Schrott geworfen wird, das wäre in anderen Ländern undenkbar.
Go full steam ahead, man
I find that cleaning is an excellent way to do a detailed inspection of your project
My company trashed the drill press not bin used in 10 years great to see her again
We call that GUN BOAT GREY here in the U.S.A. Another Professional Restoration Job. Thank You.
We do?
One of the best things about old drills is that having 2 jaws you can use old square drive drills and augurs which wont fit 3 jaw modern drill machines!
I love your work on old "obsolete" tools, just because it's old doesn't mean it's not useful. Well done.
weeeee, another repair-a-thon :)
My support is to write a good comment. Very well done. Happy a wonderful day and safe one.
To your mentioning that cleaning is as important as repair: I've repaired and restored many motorcycles and small engines, and cleaning things is crucial if you want to get more than a "just good enough for today" repair. It gives you a chance to learn the individual machine you're working on and let it tell it's story if it has one, and let you know where it needs help if it does without things going sizzle or bang when they shouldn't. Plus it means less worry of grime going into places they'll do more harm once you take things apart.
Seeing old tools brought back to life and renewed makes me happy because nothing old is ever truly worn out because things were built to last longer granted some old tools are just out right heavy as heck but well worth repairing the majority of the time
one thing i've allways apreceated about old tools is that in many cases there operations is alot quieter than modern equivelints using high rpm motors that end up sounding like vacumes.
You're a good human being.
Sending you strong thoughts of peace, knowledge, love, and wisdom. Also with a thank you from the state of Michigan in the U.S.
TPAI: Thanks for encouraging the rest of us to fix power tools. Your welding machine series is AWESOME!!
That's pretty cool that regular gasoline is the best degreaser, if you've got the ventilation and safe area for it anyway.
More like this please :) I'm really enjoying this type of videos. Reminds me of "Sendung mit der Maus" in my childhood.
The drill press is a work of art.
Absolutely applaud your desire to bring old things back from the dead.
I restore police motorcycles, and find myself doing many similar things to you.
Very rewarding indeed!
Helpful info: the “ WD “ in WD40 stands for “ Water Displacement “ . You can actually use WD40 on electrical components . The water displacing component was the reason that folks who drove cars with old school ignition points carried a can of it with them. If you have ever had a distributor get damp on the inside, either from swamping it out in high water or just condensation. You can pull the cap, spray the inside of the cap with WD40, sling or towel out the excess, and stick it back together. Taken care of! Have a great day!
it is so great to see this old and discarded tools getting repaired and put to use again... Thank you for the great videos :D
Or just completely working equipment pulled from the junkyard before it deteriorates!
Out standing job on the drill press. A great piece for the shop
Great repair-a-thon, as always. I really enjoyed it. I don't understand how, or why people are throwing away perfectly good stuff and tools, like that water pump.... all you did is clean it a little and add a new power cord and it worked perfectly.... Once again, great work, bravo.
maybe that is not the case. You have to think further, this test, YES. it still pumps freely but the pump has variable pressure control and many more function. Professional users buy it for these functions, however he did not test those, so maybe it IS broken. it just does it's basic funtion
@@bryanbogaert8726 its also possible that the cord was damaged and corporate policy was to discard damaged items rather then incur possible liability by repairing it.
You don't really want ro know, what my company throws onto the scrap pile.
Sometimes even new tools, because they were bought some time ago, but never used - and the department has to pay for the storage area they use. So often the get rid of perfectly fine things
TheThrustProject i would like to work at your company. :)
@@kopriva007 Sometimes my company takes the efficiency too serious and burns a lot of money, which doesn't sound so efficient 😁
But on the other hand, you are able to take home certain stuff, if your boss allowes to - so I got some nice tools in my workshop. Only handtools (files and clamps, but a decent set of drillbits aswell)
good morning young man I love your videos it's so nice to see someone taking care of some of these old tools
After watching some of your videos, I started looking for small quality handtools at the recycling shops that I could revive. For 50 cents, you can buy all kinds of "Made in Western Germany" pliers and similar tools here. It is nothing near to your amazing restorations, but it is fun to do and those quality tools are amazing to work with. Thank you!
His English is better than much of what I hear in Los Angeles, including correct use of slang!
Since I was a child, scrapyards are my favorite places. Much of my toys came from them, which I restored or used in some projects. A beautiful thing is when walking through and exploring you will have ideas that you would not have elsewhere. Coming out of this pandemic, I want to go back to exploring them.
This old drill press is a real beauty! Well done, man!
That was a score!
The old Tools run and run and run, it is so great. 🤗👍👍👍
Beautiful drill press. Nice work getting it back to its glory. I enjoy the history of old tools.
Beautiful objects, that speak of another age of pride in materials and workmanship. I love these videos.
The drill press looks awesome and heavy af. Lovit😁
A Gost Busters worthy Tool!
😃👍
Nicely done. I like the lines on the old drill press. Not just a good working tool, it's also good looking.
While I love seeing you restore these tools and machines, I would love it if you could film you using them more. I know you occasionally use some restored tools to fix other tools, but I would love a timelapse or hour long video of you working in the shop at your daily tasks.
I know it takes a long time to edit and stuff, but just film it with a wide lens and then voice over key parts like "now I'm cleaning the gear box with gasoline". Personally, I'd love to see more content even if it is not your normal excellent quality, just an interesting video to watch while I'm in my shop etc.
Ixion was known mainly for their Tap and Die Sets and Drills, now a days they make CNC and CNC components. It is a German Company
Well done finding the pump, if you have any questions about it let me know through the UK Steelpumps website. We keep all the parts for this model if you ever need them.
Global economy floods the market with every decreasing quality. I completely agree. I admire your channel and approach to life. I am a pea from the same pod as you! I have a workshop in Southampton UK , and love to repair, restore, repurpose and reuse
Hello!
I know its a bit late,but I think I know which company made the handdrill.
Its Cordes&Sluiter,known as Cordia from Bremen,Germany.They were known for good drill presses,but a Hungarian company bought them 2006.

The AEG drill press is a a thing of beuaty and simplicity, on the IXION drill note the string (?) under the commutator wound and enamelled over the copper wires to keep them in place / protect them from breaking off. Great attention to detail in some of these old tools. Maybe it deserves a couple of new bearings, that will keep it running for another 80 years...
That power drill looks like something you'd be armed with in Bioshock
You should build a flatbed trailer out of stuff from the scrap yard. Then you can salvage items in higher weight classes.
Fascinating work, should be taught as a lesson in schools., dismanteling, dissection , analysis. Just refurbishing a similar pillar drill £30 startrite mercury mk2, skeleton cast frame but with covers. Used red diesel to de-grease, less volatile than petrol. Very little runout at full extension. Love the finds.
We gotta get you a parts cleaner so you dont have to get dizzy while cleaning out old grease and grime or have to keep wiping up messes on your workbenches. For a portable solution and to not take up much space in your workshop while it's not in use I would recommend the CRC Benchtop Pro.
Oh man English raving green and Polished brass would look awesome on that drill
You should totally sell restored tools and devices. It would be a good source of content *and* you'd earn a bit of extra cash.
I can't imagine he's keeping all of the sump pumps he's fixing.
Exactly what I am doing during this lock down. Start on a 1940’s still press tomorrow. One of the modern tools I own.
Bat degreaser and dirt remover is carburetor and choke cleaner. Incredibly cheap at an auto parts store and works great
Noiceeee fam, love what you do. Keep being you, I hope more people take your work as an inspiration for bettering the lives of the entire population in the future.
I came here to say this. Love you!
Those types of drill presses may look simple but they are more precise than a typical drill press.
I was wondering what kind of tram it has and maintains.
Fantastic restoration job on that AEG drill press! :)
And I wonder why anyone would throw away a good water pump. Especially a submersible one.
Very impressive and maybe very prescient given our current state of affairs. Thanks for making the effort to educate us!
That's a beautiful drill press, wonderful restoration.
From Google:
Die Firma IXION war ein Maschinenhersteller aus Hamburg. Das Unternehmen wurde im Jahr 1919 gegründet und fertigte für den weltweiten Markt bis 2011 vor allem stationäre Bohr- und Fräsmaschinen.
IXION was a company in Hamburg, Germany. The company was founded in 1919 and built primarily stationary drill presses and milling machines for the world wide market until 2011.
AS ALWAYS..FANTASTICHE!..NEW LIFE TO BEAUTIFUL DEUTCHE ENGININEERINGS!..DANKER!..
I love your videos man, thanks for making them. The highlight of my week is when I go to the scrap yard or thrift shop and find something awesome that someone else has thrown away. Nice to see there are still like minded people in the world. Sending you a big thumbs up from America 👍.
That drillpress is a gorgeous little beauty
I bet that drill has such an archaic switch because it was designed to also handle DC?
Both those drills are nice. You did an awesome job on them. I like the old school grease cup on the hand drill. You fill both parts with grease. When you twist it down it little grease is added to the gears. Way cool.
I agree that they don't make things as well as they used to years ago. I have a 1938 Singer industrial sewing machine. model number 111W113. After 82 years it still works great. It lost a lot of paint, but I assume I can't imagine how many things it made for the military for WWII. Parachutes, tents, uniforms, and who knows what else. My wife bought a Kenmore sewing machine and it self-destructed in less than two years. I think they design things to have a short life so people will buy more.
I miss your power electronics videos but these visits to the scrap yard are quite fun if not as informative. And I've still got DiodeGoneWild to teach me electronics.
I have a chuck like that for my lathe. I use it for thread cutting as it grabs the square shanks far better than any other chuck does.
13:20 Hall effect sensors are all over automobiles. These terms often don't translate well, but some examples are: crank/cam shaft sensors, vehicle speed sensor/transmission output speed sensor, wheel speed sensor (anti-lock brakes and stability control) and they all work on exactly the same principles and some are the same part too!
I wish automakers did that more often though, having the same exact part for all those sensors would save hundreds of dollars in repair costs over the lifecycle of a car.
I wish I could afford to donate with patreon, but I just wanna say I LOVE the content. So much learning, and seeing how things were made. so cool
Cool scrapyards you have there. The pump is almost new!
You have one of the most educational channels on UA-cam. Thank you!
Great channel! Not an insult to intelligence, just for a kind of people who seems to be disappearing! Thank you.
hi there just stumbled upon your brilliant channel im exactly the same love finding and restoring vintage tools bicycles and vintage cyclemotors. the firm ixion was founded in germany in 1919 by otto hafner they went bust in 2011 its a shame now everything is made from plastic lasts for a year then kaput where tools made yesteryear were made to last . all about profit now anyway all the very best to germany from durham uk....
As a Siemens South Africa pensioner, I remember AEG as "Aus Erlangen Gestohlen"
Erlangen a city of Siemens and University.
I have very fond memories of my visit, living at Hotel Zum Fuchsen.
Ausgezeichnet!!
I love the look of the bench drill press and the hand drill. Glad to see these back to good working condition.
Always good to see a new repair-a-thon video
Dave.
62 years old and I don't remember ever seeing a two jaw chuck like that. Thinking it had better grasping powers then these new three jaw Jacobs crap being used. When you think about it they actually employ 4 contact points.
I initially thought that the chuck suited the standard square-shank drills that our parents used with hand drills (braces).
www.google.com/search?q=square+taper+drill+bit&tbm=isch
However, it's probably parallel jaws to suit round shank drills, because the Jacobs (3-jaw_ chuck wasn't patented until 1902 and took some years before it was dominant.
That Italian pump would make a powerful pressure cleaner.
I have an old craftsman drill press,cast iron,that I bought and all that was wrong was lubing and some electronic work and it’s a gem! Great video and channel
Great job! So glad to see a knew repair-a-thon, i was so much looking for ward to the next episode that I have been watching every single one one more time... I really appreciate your work and effort you put into every single video.
14:42 its the fan of a water heater which blows air which is later mixed with gas and ignited and burned in the burner itself
Fantastic! Best part of my week when it comes out.
Thanks for the repair-a-thon love them
