"Are you using a lathe to fix a lathe?" "Do you know a better way to fix a lathe?"
what came first, the chicken or the lathe?
Kudos to the young man who lends his considerable skills to giving an antique some additional useful life. We antiques appreciate it.
Great job restoring such a big and heavy piece of machinery. When my previous workplace closed down, all our old machinery was sold for scrap because everyone wants more modern equipment. It was so sad to see these go, so I'm happy that this piece was saved.
Olivier, I don't know if you read the comments, but if you don't want to kill the spindle bearings very quickly, this machine needs drip oilers for constant lubrication of the spindle. Otherwise, you will have to quickly say goodbye to accurate rotation. The oilers are screwed into the holes where you poured WD-40 from a can.
I know it needs frequent lubrifications. But I don't think it had drip oilers, since the holes aren't threaded. The the spindle bearings are pretty dead allready and the shaft is not running true. If I want to use this lathe I'll probably change the whole spindle assembly, and go with modern ball bearings.
He does read comments cool
No idea what any of this means but I liked the video
@@OlivierGomis the right idea. I would also switch to modern bearings with the manufacture of a new spindle and flange bearing supports.
Love the makeover 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
How do u fix the alignment problem?
That's so awesome! Were my grampa still alive, he would have loved this!
Nicely done Olivier as you have a nice piece of history! Thank you for sharing.
Nice job restoring this piece. Glad to see some of the old tools getting a second chance at life.
Awesome job on restoring the antique lathe.
My favorite videos on You Tube are wood turning and restorations. This is the best of both. Thanks Olivier😎
Even though it needs more work to be completely useful, it's time well.spent to restore this lovely old lathe. Merci pour ce partage!
Truly awesome!
Merci Mille fois, Olivier, for a great episode. It is a beautiful old machine, and you did just the best amount of work to save it while letting it keep its character. Someone must have valued it highly, as the mechanics were in surprisingly good shape, with perfect castings and all that solid brass or bronze. Those two meters may well come in handy for one of your giant projects. Please keep us updated, and thanks again.
No sólo eres un artista de la madera , si no que también restauras maquinaria vintage 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Saludos
Well done!
You're genius man
What a great find!
Fantastic job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great project. I see a CNC table and spindle in the background. Excited for that video
Wow....Not only are you an artist of wood, but a restorer of the first order! Well done!
Thank you so much for posting, always learn a ton from one of your videos
What a beautiful old lathe resurrected by a genius 🌞
great-great job.
Какой же вы умничка. Я не перестаю восхищаться вами. Да Благословит вас Господь. 🙏
THAT looks like a typical engine lathe for METAL working. Main chuck, tool post, et al.
Si vous disposez de suffisamment de temps, il ne fait aucun doute que vous comprendrez comment intégrer cette machine merveilleusement restaurée dans votre atelier ou que vous trouverez quelqu'un à qui elle conviendra peut-être mieux. Vous n'êtes peut-être qu'un type ordinaire, mais vous inspirez toujours M. Olivier. Merci de partager vos efforts de restauration honnêtes. Trop souvent, nous pensons "Je ne peux pas faire ça tout seul". Souvent, tout ce dont nous avons besoin, c'est de voir quelqu'un comme vous faire exactement cela.
remarque ajoutée
Regarder une deuxième fois, en remarquant tout à l'heure les panneaux acoustiques en hauteur sur les murs de votre magasin. Idée géniale pour enregistrer des vidéos et réduire le bruit de base d'un magasin. Intelligent.
Petite remarque pour ameliorer votre français:
shop (where things are sold) = magasin
(work)shop = atelier
Bonjour Olivier, je te félicite pour la restauration du tour, c'est toujours bien de sauvegarder un peu l'histoire de nos métiers, je suis mécanicien et j'ai aussi restauré des outils anciens.Je vous envoie un gros câlin et des bénédictions pour vous et votre famille de Buenos Aires Argentine.
I'm completely in awe of your determination and problem solving skills. You rock!
Great restoration of an antique piece that would otherwise have been trashed or continued to rust away, unused. Your skills are beyond amazing--is there anything you can't restore? My guess would be no.
If the definition of genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains (as Holmes would have it), then Olivier G is a genius. And that idea gets my vote, time and time again. Thank you, Olivier. Best Hugh
Super Job ! Très heureux que tu en soit le nouvel héritier ! Bravo Olivier vraiment 🙏
Wow. Beautiful old lathe.
Heavy stuff WOW, and it looks good in your big shop!
What a wonderful and fulfilling project! It's a beautiful machine!
Very cool. I would change the chuck for a woodturning chuck and shim the tail stock to correct the alignment issue. A VFD to control the speed would be great too. That will be a fabulous wood lathe.
j'adore les video de restauration ^^
et ton atelier est trop bien , ca change du garage ^^
Outstanding
Génial, superbe. 😃👍
Looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
The thing I found most fascinating (apart from your amazing restoration abilities) was that so many of the features of modern woodturning lathes were already present on a model from the Victorian era! The advancing tailstock quill, the morse taper, the scroll chuck (even if it is only a 3-jaw one, with no carriers or interchangeable jaw sets).
Great job! I know some old machinists that would be in awe of your work.
Very cool! A great piece of history saved from the scrap pile.
Super.👍
This is a neat video. I really liked watching you adapt this machine to the new motor.
Wow, what a beautiful piece of equipment.
Wow 😲 what a beautiful lathe,you really did make it shine again,well done you Oliver 🙂 you can be very proud to have done it justice 🙂
Impressive restoration!!!!!!!
Very cool resto. That’s a very large hunk of metal. It turned out beautifully.
There is no end to the imagination in these videos.
It is super cool! You did a great job, Olivier 👌👌👍👍
Very good restoration 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Be safe🇨🇦
Nice to see an old beauty given a second chance. Hopefully it finds a good home.
Ce tour à bois est magnifique.
Great job, another gorgeous creation 👍👍
This was really great to watch! Even if it doesn't get much use, you still brought it back to being a beautiful machine that can possibly still handle smaller jobs just to show it off in action. And great reflexes when that block flew off!
Thank you very much!
A lot work, LOOKS GOOD
A true monster of a lathe. Congrats..
I have a super old cast iron scroll saw I found at a recycling center. This kind of inspires me to tear it down and try to bring it back. You did an excellent job. Everything on those old lathes are heavy and blunt. I don’t know how anyone could have done any better work to revive it. My hats off to ya sir.
Nice Job!!
What a cool lathe Olivier.
Very cool. Good job!
hi Olivier ,this work was beatiful restoring ,i'm also a woodpecker ,but i retaired old man,this work was so-so beautiful ,congrat ,Koloman from Hungary ,Budapest,yes i now what is restoring a'm also worked in in an Hungary museum along 37-years along, thank you,take care on your hands. by-by.thank you again.
I liked the tool adapting, hand tools to lathe tools, easy !!!
Very impressive. Congratulations.
Great looking resto, Olivier!
That was very interesting. Hope to see it in use in the future.
👍👍👍
Me encanta el trabajo de restauración que has hecho, fenomenal
Sensacional 👍👍👍👍👍
very good work
I need a big lathe like that, nice job 👌
Супер находка!!! 👍
I was like "wait, Hand Tool Rescue" surely has changed, with no beard and all... :)
Nice job!
What a beast of a lathe…nice to see it getting some tlc 🙂
Well done sir I wish I could have half the talent you do you are inspiring
Wonderful. It must have taken a lot of hard work to disassemble the lathe and clean the parts free of all rust. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work.
You’ve done a good job. You should follow Keith Rucker and David Richards (Old Steam-powered Machine Shop) if you don’t already do so. I also think it was an engineering lathe, never a wood turning one. You now need a steam tractor with a threshing wheel to drive it.
Very niiiiicce!
WOW! Very impressive restoration. You did yourself proud. Having a piece of history is pretty great too.
This seems like a metal lathe, but it seems to fit your precision & mechanical-leveraged way of working. I enjoy the diversity of your use of so many unique tools to increase precision for unique results!
super 👍👍👍
I don't know how I missed this when you first released this video, but I have to say you did a fantastic job on the restoration of this lathe, now I'm going to show my age, I remember using a lathe very similar to this when I first started learning metalwork and fabrication, this is a stunning example of they built things to last back then. Keep up the great content youngster I really d9 enjoy your video's.
Beautiful ! I like the idea of tensioning the belt with the motor own weight, simple and smart !
That's exactly how my small old Record ;lathe is powered and geared. But with a protetive hingerd cover over the belts!! Good job pal.
Great job. I though it more an engineering lathe with three jaw chuck and cross slides as you said but what a wonderful base for wood turning. Was amazed how good that chuck looked considering the age of it.
My thoughts are that it's a pattern makers lathe.
You did a beautiful job of restoring this lathe. It looks better than my old 1946 Delta Milwaukee lathe, and mine does not have a live tail stock center. Your lathe has the features of a metal lathe. Very interesting!
Wow Oliver, this is a new string to your bow, and what a start, this piece was huge, and went from doing nothing, to becoming a great addition to your workshop. Thanks for another brilliant project ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super
Awesome to get a new video, and I love seeing old tools and machines.
But let’s talk about how HUGEHUGE your shop is! You have a ding-dang second level to raise and lower heavy parts from! Woah!
Impressive work you've done. I wondered why you didn't just use the existing pulleys by machining them for vbelts.
Ficou muito bom
Thats a metal turning lathe!
This type of lathe would have been used by my great grandfather!
Neat
I bow to your talent...again. I would not have ANY idea what to do with that. When you were pulling it apart, my thought was he's taking them all apart, how is he going to know/remember what parts went where....lol.... Ya, I'm not a mechanic.... Plus, my ADHD over reacted.
How glad were you to have documented how you took the lathe apart when it was time to put it back together?
You should meet up with @tysytube ! He’s got a restoration channel and is based out of Paris. (No I’m not a dumb American. I know it’s a big country. You guys are just my 2 favorite UA-camrs and I’d love to see a collab!)
Süper .
👍
How in the.... did you get your hands on that????. That is a nice one. I have a friend in Virginia has one that his dad built in the 70s.
It is 10ft long. Is Dad built it to do real long spindles for Like beds and stuff like that.
It has two motors on it
I'm thinking this is a metal lathe. Not for woodworking and event so... it should be in a museum.
lol at about 4:30.. I'm thinking that's the same wire bush that started the project, just on its last legs now.
That's exacly right, and I got free acuponcure!
You made a matthias wandel style puley.
👏👏
