I am old enough to remember when this sickle grinder was being sold in hardware stores. I have one from McCormick Deering, International Harvester.My grinder came with a cam and lever that drives the grind stone up and down to cover the "V" shapes of the sickle mower blade. The grinder I have is designed to be mounted on the mower and moved from blade to blade. They came with paint in the gear teeth. This was thought to be a kind of lubricant and may have been the only lube the tool ever got. Grease was a dirt attractant and formed a grinding compound. Cast iron is slightly self lubricating and does not need grease in this application. Some molly dry lube spray would be way more than adequate. You may be the first "restorer" with a glass bead blast cabinet. I have a MOD-U-BLAST cabinet and a 30 liter ultrasonic parts cleaner.
Не пойму, зачем предварительно мыть, потом покрывать смывкой для краски, а потом пескоструить? Почему нельзя сразу в пескоструйку? Для чего эти лишние операции?
You westerners really don't know what real restoration is! I am from Serbia 🇷🇸 and I see that is a bad job!!! I read comments the others and see only false praise. I don't understand why? If you already want to support him at least tell him the truth. It will be much more useful to him!!!🤔🙄😒 Harsh but honest!!!
I have to agree. get a camera for the sand blasting. many of the restoration videos I watch, the sand blasting is one of the best parts to watch of the restoration. just an idea if you want more views and subscribers.
I get what Teresa means. It isn’t a slight against you. Some of the restorers talk too much, like they love hearing the sound of their own voices and it gets annoying fast.
Good work straightening the crank handle. Next time, use a piece of leather, a folded up old rag or a thick piece of plastic, to keep from maring the metal.
It is exactly like that, but it has a metal rod instead of a string. Actually now that I think about it it's a bit different than a lamp. You pull down on the rod to turn it on and push up on the rod to turn is off. It's more like a regular light switch with an extension rod attached to it.
Restoration Station - for these, we (in UK) have an industrial type switch (large box with red and green button) and remote safety cutouts on parts of the machine and a emergency stop button, far more complex than a pull cord 😉
A really nice renovation, well done. Looks good in the blue paint too. One suggestion for the grease, don't know if it would be suitable, Motorcycle spray chain grease. It certainly "sticks" to metal and doesn't fly off as you might imagine once thing start rotating !
Not showing the sand blasting is okay with me, thanks for that. But as well as you did, are there missing pieces to this tool, or are those spots for additional options? Nicely done,sir.
Thanks! I've been thinking for a while about how I could mask off gear teeth. Had to settle for the method I used in this video. I'll try your method in my next video
At what point does one decide an object in its antique condition is more valuable than restored? There was a whole era in the '70s and '80s where antique furniture was restored and sold for high dollars. Then come late '90s and 2000's unrestored colonial furniture was pulling $100K at auction. At some point you may ask, is it better to clean it just enough, leaving its patina or bringing back to factory new or better?
His daddy comes home later and asks; “ anyone know what happened to the handle of my brand new DRAWKNIFE??!!!” This guy slinks outside to hide his new grinder thingy.
No such thing as too much lube... You're probably right, though. There was a lot of dried up (100?) year old dried-up grease packed into the gears that was a real pain to clean. I'll remove all of the bearing grease I used and make a post with pictures once I unlock the UA-cam community tab feature.
Interesting because looking at the space below the stone it wasn’t actually as ground down as one might think. Was this used for something in particular do you think? Most stone one sees are disc shaped whereas this was more drum or barrel-shaped.
Открытые зубчатые передачи не смазывают. На масло налипает пыль, песок и прочее и они начинают работать как образив, что приводит к более быстрому износу мест зацепления. А так все супер!
Ольга , ты серьёзно думаешь, что он будет применять эту «приблуду» на практике ??? Почти все что нам показывают, это музейные экспонаты !!! Я бы ОЧЕНЬ огорчился если бы их применяли по назначению !!! Их место в Музеях старого быта и техники , а то все отправят на свалку или в переплавку ?!!
Would you please consider spending a minute or even two at the end of just moving around the finished item? Maybe even on a potters wheel? It’s just it’s over so quickly and you tube recommends cover up the work too. Plus more sandblasting please! Great Work!
U try to make it better again,not to judge but u have to see "mymechanic" channel..he did anawesome job,everything was detail n much awesome finishing..
Restoration Station it looks like you have the chuck where the collar is separate from the chuck. In 52 it was modified to have a snap ring that keeps the collar attached to the chuck, chuck can’t get knocked off. If the motor is a factory craftsman or Dunlap motor then it will have a date code on it like C3 49 for March 3rd week 1949. I’ve got a 2 handle 80 model benchtop from 1947 and a 1956 floor model 100.

Please be careful using a metal hammer as those castings crack really easily . A puller or rubber mallet is safer. This is one of the few times the gears should run dry as the first time you dress the wheel you will see where the dust is gathered up by the grease . But nice job
Need a table attached to the one side to put the item being sharpened. Attach a motor to the other side to turn the handle. Then you could whittle an ax blade like a pencil.
I just came across this channel, and I’m quite impressed. It has a very uniform style, very professional. You do great work with restorations too, keep it up!
You need to film the sand blasting that's my favorite part
Not showing the media blasting should be a criminal offence
Adam Walters he had to go get his dad because he’s not allowed .

Old is gold Bon keep it save it will about 70 or 80 years old after 2 or 3 decade will a century old peice of art.

that time when there is no power tools...love you restore this..add to your collection.
The restoration was perfect, just as a tip, you could clean the stripping stone with the sandbox and then pave it with a diamond brush, it is perfect.
Not showing the sandblasting.. that's just mean.
hands in, hands out, finished... lol
But I like seeing the sandblasting.
Damn right. I feel robbed, cheated, violated, raped.....
I WANT THE SANDBLASTING!
Everyone does!
Yessss
why?
I'm so impressed with tools. Is it strange to say I love seeing tools helping tools. And you are a skilled craftsman.
Your lights are buzzing.
great work my friend one big like

Impressive restoration. You got it looking better and working like a charm as well. Great work.

Very cool bro I love the color too
Great work well done.
What do you use this machine for? I wanted to see that at the end but it wasn’t there. Can someone explain to me? Thanks!
It’s called sandblasting.
This type of grinder was used to sharpen the blades on old sickle mowers pulled by mules, horses and tractors
You are right there, I have used one of these many a year ago!
I have to agree. get a camera for the sand blasting. many of the restoration videos I watch, the sand blasting is one of the best parts to watch of the restoration. just an idea if you want more views and subscribers.
That handle came out super nice!
so nice, good job
love the videos, like that you don't talk
Thanks?

Respect from Egypt man
Keep up the good work
Good work straightening the crank handle. Next time, use a piece of leather, a folded up old rag or a thick piece of plastic, to keep from maring the metal.
Is the drill press power attached to pull string? Like on a desk lamp.
Tommy Hill - quite unusual 🤨

Очень хорошо 👍 ! Понравилось!
Good man 👍
It is for sharpening sickle bar mower blades. McCormick Derring made some of them
you are correct
Nice, described well. thanks a lot.
Te felicito por el buen trabajo de restauración 🇵🇪
Super jest to odrestaurowane pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍
would have sanded down the metal a bit before primer perhaps filled in those pits a bit. also is there any way to clean a stone?
good job
my mechanic chanel only best
beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
Do you prefer P.B. Blast over WD40? If so, does it work better or just a preference thing?
that grinder too is a scythe grinder used on a tractor. Hand Tool Rescue restored one on his channel.
For a sickle bar mower?
Not showing the sand blasting is okay with me, thanks for that. But as well as you did, are there missing pieces to this tool, or are those spots for additional options? Nicely done,sir.
PB Blaster ftw!!!
i said the same thing
How do u know how to take apart and put this shit back together? I'd end up with one less or one extra screw somehow
Turkiyenin ilk ve tek restorasyon kanalı ziyaret etmeyi unutmayın
Pretty good Restoration!
Great work!!
We spread white grease on gears we didn't want to get paint on. Once dry, the paint and grease would just brush off...
Thanks! I've been thinking for a while about how I could mask off gear teeth. Had to settle for the method I used in this video. I'll try your method in my next video
my mechanic is champion. He will do it in great way.It looks like complete new.
What's the use for this tool?. I have no idea. Sorry. Like the restoration
Nice to know that others share my sentiment on the absent sand blasting process.
Can the stone be cleaned? Was it?
Para que sirve esta herramienta? cual es su utilidad?. saludos desde Santiago de Chile.-
Why not reshape the stone? beautiful restore!
Very nice
I have one like that but the grind stone is missing.
It looks like you didn't grease the shaft before putting it in. Shouldn't that have some grease considering there are no bearings or bushings?
great job
Great video, always nice to see items like this restored to working order!
what kind of grease did you use
At what point does one decide an object in its antique condition is more valuable than restored? There was a whole era in the '70s and '80s where antique furniture was restored and sold for high dollars. Then come late '90s and 2000's unrestored colonial furniture was pulling $100K at auction.

Well it's the fact that there is less "modified" things left which pushes the price of the unmodified
His daddy comes home later and asks; “ anyone know what happened to the handle of my brand new DRAWKNIFE??!!!” This guy slinks outside to hide his new grinder thingy.
Nicely done. Might have gotten a little carried away with the grease but nicely done just the same.

What kind of camera do you use ,bty nice video
How often do you change your blast media?
Interesting because looking at the space below the stone it wasn’t actually as ground down as one might think. Was this used for something in particular do you think? Most stone one sees are disc shaped whereas this was more drum or barrel-shaped.
Its made for grinding cutting teeth on reciprocating mowers on tractors.

Why paint remover before blasting?
Nice kniptex pliers!
I wanna see it in action !!!!…
Me too........
5:39 - I was waiting for him to face plant into the window on the sand blasting cabinet, but the moment never came!
Would you please consider spending a minute or even two at the end of just moving around the finished item? Maybe even on a potters wheel? It’s just it’s over so quickly and you tube recommends cover up the work too. Plus more sandblasting please! Great Work!
Picked up one similar at an auction last month
Why?
Why not?
Very nice job... subscribed...
Nice work! Congrats! Thanks for not making us go through the boring sandblasting !
Show more sandblasting please that’s the best part
Superb video quality. What camera do you use ? Thanks, Dave.
U try to make it better again,not to judge but u have to see "mymechanic" channel..he did anawesome job,everything was detail n much awesome finishing..
Mymechanics is the best!
The whole point to restoration is to use as many original parts as possible,
Welp there not enemies, there no like friends
Oh no, no, no. Industrial strenght dish detergent :) greetings from Poland :)
That grinder for sharpening cutter bar blades
Nice job.
Muito bom os vídeos...sempre assisto..parabens 👍👍.....
I got this exact same one!
i have one of these still works mine has both stones
Parabéns amigo por sua inteligência sou do Brasil
É nois kkk
Oi kkk tudo bem
Magic
The stone was desirable to align. Too much grease on the gears.
Well done job.
Nice
That a pre-1952 Craftsman 100 drill press?
Not sure what year but it's a craftsman with vari-slo speed control pulleys

@@TheVintageEngineer craftsman motor date code: j1 47
Restoration Station so yeah you got a 1947 (assuming original motor) which I believe was the first year of these.
Gracias, por tu amable respuesta...
Y, exactamente qué es lo que hace la máquina?
Gracias por compartir
Afila :)
for the handle you should have gave it a quick sanding and then a acrylic acetate " super glue " bath then sand and polish
why didn't you use your belt sander?
Nice! I enjoyed watching this!
I do like a pedal and crank.
При финальной сборке, вместо квадратной гайки, в квадратный паз вставил болт, ну как так??? 14:17
It's a square carriage bolt
Please be careful using a metal hammer as those castings crack really easily . A puller or rubber mallet is safer. This is one of the few times the gears should run dry as the first time you dress the wheel you will see where the dust is gathered up by the grease . But nice job
Thanks. Appreciate the constructive criticism. Always looking to get better
@@RestorationStation i didnt mean to criticise . Just making a comment from experience cracking castings . Keep up the good work
pb blaster for the win
Need a table attached to the one side to put the item being sharpened. Attach a motor to the other side to turn the handle. Then you could whittle an ax blade like a pencil.
I noticed you have some nice KNIPEX pliers!
Where do you even buy a new stone for this? Nice job. Like the blue.
Hey I have a new hobby
My new hobby is to watch others hobby ,🤣🤣
Выбивание штифтов на весу - это эпик. Неужели тисков банальных нету?
