    Adding for Scott Finlayson - I'm so glad you kept that footage in there ("I'm a genius") This is the way the young and inexperienced learn by watching, and by NOT making those mistakes themselves. This was trivial for you, but someone, somewhere, could have lost a thumb. Watch and learn, peeps.

      Yes, I’m the guy responding to a 4yo comment.
      I’m happy that he accurately shows the evaporust process. It leaves a dark tarnish-like layer of iron-something deposit when done that you have to get off, and I also use a wire brush on a drill press. I usually brush first to physically remove what I can and not waste the precious fluid on it, and then again after to remove the darkness. I also liked that he used that layer of deposit on purpose here.
      I always go for gentle physical removal first, but when that doesn’t work it goes in the bath. I wish I could afford a barrel, though. I just have 2 gallons. But I do smaller hand woodworking tools: planes, chisels, draw knives, etc. It started as necessity to get tools, but now I enjoy the restoration as much as woodworking.

    I always like your restorations, because you let the piece feel like it's already lived a good life. You can still feel it was used and exposed to the elements, and the wood is allowed to have an imperfect color. It's like taking your grandma out for new clothes, instead of shoving your grandma into a rejuvenation machine. Some restoration channels make the end result look so shiny and spotless, there's no way it looked like that when the previous owner received it.

      @@ricky107_ Nice! In Zen Buddhism, they have a concept called wabi-sabi, where imperfections are embraced, as a testament to how nothing is perfect or permanent. Similarly, also in Japan, there is a concept in pottery called kintsugi, where if a plate or vase breaks, you repair it with gold, to highlight the flaw. I appreciate both concepts for those reasons.

    I almost never reply to videos, but had to admit my "Laugh Out Loud" moment when you did the "Vanna-White-esque" hand reveal of the wooden handle after the the potentially devastating incident of the drill chuck catching and coiling the rag. I know those moments of instantaneous regret and recoil very well from my years in shops. :) Kudos for finding a way to keep it in the video - demonstrate the danger - and still make us laugh.

    Grateful for you sharing this restoration. It's a fabulous example of the genius of that era and of people who set a new course in history like him, Browning, Westinghouse, etc. Of course today we have modern food processors because of them, but they wont be around in 155 years! The foundry work alone was off the charts (didn't see much casting marks, flash or anything for that matter). That lever arm is a beauty and took some engineering to get it just right. No wonder they cost 3-5 years salary at the end of the civil war! Respect for your use of the oil-lite bearings and for respectfully saving an original once again so that people can see where we came from and why! Thanks Much!! ~PJ

    Hey, a quick note on screwdrivers: there's different sizes/styles of flat head screwdriver, and the modern wedge shape is not what you want to be using on them. Modern screws/screwdrivers use a wedge shaped flat head (if you took the flat head screwdriver and sliced the tip down the middle and looked at it from the side, the blade has a 'V' taper). This is so that, at the point where the screw locks into whatever you're screwing, the 'wedge' shape will push the screwdriver out of the back of the screw, rather than letting you torque it down to the point where it damages things. In older items and in some specialty stuff like firearms that still use old style screws, you are going to damage the surface that needs to be torqued down with an old style of screwdriver, that has a flat blade where it touches the screw, rather than a taper, if you use that taper instead. The damaged screws will fail to fit the proper screwdriver, and are a lot harder to get into whatever you're working on properly at that point. Basically you want some machinists flatheads and maybe a screwslot file to fix these up and you'll be fine. Keep up the good work!

    Love the vids, can recommend a pinstriping brush which has more control than a paint marker. Paint marker shows all the small corrections in the hand, the brush has slower corrections and you can have a steady control. That said, I’ve been happily binge watching all these videos as of late and I love the deep dive into old school engineering. Keep up the good work! ❤️

    A masking line, when using the paint pen would have made things a whole lot less wiggly don't you think?

    What would be really cool would be to attach a small Tangye or Mamod steam engine to it and watch it deconstruct a lettuce in a fraction of the time...

    I've never agreed with the "unnecessarily prominent adjustable wrenches" till today. That giant ass one makes me feel like you might be compensating for something. Gives a whole new meaning to hand tool rescue.
