      @@NTRprojects I'm glad you both agree. Wt's whhat makes your two channels special to me is how you both propose quality craftsmanship, respect for the piece you are restoring,, a friendly environment and your two distinct ways though do show through every time.
      That was why I had suggested ending you both an identical item to restore. You could use your creativity and preferred future uses to show two different, yet equally worthwhile results. So many channels are plain in that respect. Your channels aren't devoid of personality in the background, without you harassing your viewers with 3 quarters of the video about your digestive system or your nail polish.

However Dr. B, whilst it blew Mr P. out of the water, that pinstriping was shockingly shoddy. Conclusion: Room for improvement but Dr B slam dunks it. Rematch. Best of three! 🧡

    Having watched both videos I'm giving my vote to you, Dr. Beer. The shears were similar but not identical. I feel you got the more difficult shear to restore. You both did good restorations of the shears. However you made two mounts, one for mounting on a work table and the wooden mount, which was excellent. You also made a very nice wooden handle. Mr. Patina didn't make mounts or a handle. You did pin striping on the body, which matched the pin striping on the original. Plus, of course, you evaluated a beer.

    Since it's a contest and we are the judges, I have created categories by which each restoration is to be judged. The categories are Disassembly, Cleaning and Rust Removal, Hardware and Casting Improvement, Paint Preparation, Painting, Originality, Re-assembly, and Operation. Each category has a scale of 1-5 (1 is lowest score, 5 is highest score) for a possible total of 40 points.
    Disassembly - 5
    Cleaning and Rust Removal - 5
    Hardware and Casting Improvement - 5
    Paint Preparation - 5
    Painting - 3 (The pin striping was thin and uneven)
    Originality - 5 (does not include the new mounting base)
    Re-assembly - 5
    Operation - 5
    TOTAL = 38
    Your restoration turned out beautifully! You went above and beyond by paying careful attention to the details. I feel that the paint you chose to use was as close to the original as possible. Very nicely done.

    Both are outstanding! The two machines are not exactly the same. The end result function is the essential thing. For function, Dr. Beer hand sanded the blades, removing less metal, and did not use shims. Was that a difference in the blades, one set more worn than the other?? Both cut metal as required. For paint, Dr. Beer wins, for more thought, and I happen to love that look and color. For the base and handle ... WOW! And interchangeable two bases are better than one. (The parts about nickel plating bolts, then turning, confused me. Mr. Patina was less complicated, but the video progress was clearer.) In this competition, Dr. Beer! But what about the next one?? Different skills?? Who will win that??

      @@NTRprojects --- Yes, at 7:46 the red chapter heading say "Zinc Plating" (and "Chapter 3"). I thought, "Oh, OK, those are zinc plated parts". That's just my bad, being so used to consumer items in stores, advertising campaigns, and so forth. People who know nothing about engines will buy a car for the upholstery and the paint color. I have not ever seen freshly sand blasted parts in real life, nor freshly zinc plated parts. "First I sandblasted the parts as well" clarifies it. P.S. You guys didn't have "Who buys the beer" bet on this, did you??

    Magnificent job you did restoring the metal cutting shears to working order. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work.

    Well done! The perfect color, the pinstripe, the wooden stand and handle look really original and it looks to be working very smooth! I’m off to mr patinas now
