@@MrCarnutbill67 I've done it just by mixing sand into grease. The actual stuff probably works better, but grease with sand in it works well enough for me.
It really isn't. There was no welding on the rough edges of the anvil or the jaws, and no filler used on the rest before paint. :) Had it been a full restoration, it would have looked like it belonged in an art gallery. ;)
He didn't do any hot bluing in this video, nor has he ever in any video. He does oil blackening, which is the same type of finish that builds up on a well-used cast iron frying pan, i.e., carbonized oil. Bluing is black iron oxide (which has nothing in common with carbonized oil, aside from the color), which is why it's also known as a black oxide finish. "Hot bluing" is a real term, and it's also known as "hot salt bluing," and it's far more of a hassle to do than dunking hot steel into oil. A simpler method of bluing is "rust bluing", where you let the steel develop a coating of surface rust (red rust), then you boil it in water to convert the red iron oxide to black iron oxide, and you card off the excess with a wire wheel. You repeat the process until it's as black as you want it. It doesn't require the highly caustic salts and delicate procedure that hot bluing does, but it's more time consuming. It's the original method of bluing. "Cold bluing" isn't actually bluing either. It's selenium dioxide, and unlike real bluing, it offers little to no protection against rust and it wears off easily.
Who here saw the full restoration coming when he took the face plates off the jaws. I’m no Swiss mechanic but I think I knew they weren’t causing the problem! Great video as always!
I always thought adding filler and sanding was a bit overkill, but now I see why you do it and how big a difference it makes. Nice job on this though, I'm sure your friend is grateful :)
A new professional restoration job, what I miss is a new video every day because it's so much better than Netflix. Thank you very much and receive a cordial greeting from Spain.

Funny, this is what many other channels do for a "perfect" restoration, and even if it is good I miss the "my mechanics perferction" :D Great job anyways!
Your friend is very fortunate to have you as his friend. Your craftsmanship is superb. Thank you for sharing your restoration process. This world is filled with such creative craftsman. ¡Gracias!
I don’t know if the expression “golden hands” exists in the English-speaking environment, but this is exactly the case when it accurately reflects this phrase

@@marycasadone6865 I don't see why it's sexist or superficial. In this line of work it is very hard to keep nice hands.

That grinding compound is like magic. Just don't brush your teeth with it!! I'm glad that you now have two channels! Keep the excellent content comming!
Do you see this vice? I love this vice. It holds things admirably. When the sun shines on it, the paint glimmers beautifully. When I turn the handle, it moves smoothly. Yet for me, this vice is already broken. When the handle bends and the paint is badly scraped and the screw threads are ruined, I say, ‘Of course.’ But when I understand that this vice is already broken, every minute with it is precious. Likewise remind yourself that you love what is mortal; that you love what is not your own. It is allowed you for the present, not irrevocably, nor forever; but as a fig, or a bunch of grapes, in the appointed season.
I always wonder how he keeps his hands so nice. I'm starting to think he's just so precise and so practiced that no energy is lost when he sands or files something, therefore no extra energy is available to transfer to hand damage.
The care you show even when it's a 'quick' repair is obvious. You make these tools like new and give them decades more useful life than as an antique. Thanks. It warms my heart.
When I read "quick repair job," I let out a little laugh. I knew your level of professionalism would not accept anything less than what you showed us. Beautiful!

I like that this is a project for a friend who is going to put the tool to use. Sometimes it's a little sad knowing some of the things you restore will be sitting on a shelf. Both video ideas are great, but I think I might favor this type of video a little more.
The sounds of the machines in combination with the lack of other noises like music actually made me dose off about halfway through... after watching another time, I love the end result!

We live in the same country, but not in the same world. When I lend a tool to my friends, it leaves in perfect condition and it returns broken after a rapid destruction. The video of my ’my mechanics’ ’, but backwards… Seriously, congratulations on your work, it is magnificent, of exemplary quality and of a magnificent finish. This gives us, humble handymen, the example, the desire and the goal to achieve for our work. And even if we don't get to the top of the mountain, we will end up reaching the top of a hill. Thanks for that.
When you're waiting for weeks for my mechanics to post a new video and rewatching the old ones, then discover he has a second UA-cam channel with tons of unseen videos: glad I'm saved!
Hello, you cannot dislike this wonderful work you do, it is very pleasant to see a piece that we do not value turning into these beautiful works of your work. Congratulations! Sorry I don't speak English and I'm using the translator, I hope you got the message. I do not believe that there are people who have the courage to dislike their work. Thank you.
I was going to post asking what the brass pin was for, glad I watched all the way to the end. Makes me want to pull my old vice off my bench and overhaul it, then I remember I don't have any of the tools you have so I'll just let it sit. Great content and love your videos!
I notice when your painting the letters and they are raised. Would it be easier to get a long flat sponge and just press down and do all the letters at once? awesome job!
@John Harwood hmmm, I'm going to try this one. I usually use the Geoffrey Croker method of a tightly rolled piece of fabric, folded tightly again, which makes a nifty blotter.
Wonderful adventure. What a treasure that you discovered due to a damaged thread that the vise was so much more versatile. Great job. Great video. 👍Thank you for your sharing this with us.
Very nice . Hard to tell that the finished product didn't just come out of the factory packaging. If l may share a trick l use on gun parts - on parts like the jaw plates , place them in boiling water for a few minutes. This will expand the pores in the metal . When you take each part out of the water it should dry itself just from the retained heat . When dry but still hot apply the cold blue , then oil . l find that this seems to give a sturdier coating as it penetrates a little deeper . Stay safe .
