I am 81 years old, ( & in the UK ) so when your channel was offered to me, by You Tube, I had to see what it was about. ( O.T. N. D. ) And I am so glad that I did, as your engineering skills, patience, & restoration knowledge, are remarkable! On our British, BBC one TV Channel, we have a programme called " The Repair Shop " which features ' experts ' doing work, like yourself, for members of the General Public. on family treasured items, that have fallen on hard times. And to watch skills like yours, being used to save for posterity items of age & interest is so absorbing. Thank you so much, for posting content like this. Well done young Sir, I have also subscribed to your Y/T channel. Bye for now, Brian, in the UK.
This channel reminds me of The Repair Shop too! I’m much younger and in the US, but my father is British and watches shows from back home very often, and I see enough snippets to make the comparison. I love the care that the people of The Repair Shop put into the items they restore, and the same goes for this channel.
I live in the US and I love that show. They do beautiful restorations. I would love to visit and work in that shop, even for free because I would learn so much.
Even if something is mass produced, there's no denying the behind-the-scenes effort involved. Each product, no matter how standardized, required meticulous design and the dedicated work of skilled individuals on the assembly line...
It is hard to imagine it nowadays with all our technology and plastics and throw-away society- but just picturing a child getting this as a gift back "in the day"- it must have been amazing. Bright colors, shiny metal, heavy, multiplayer, a mechanism that makes the horses absolutely fly around the track, betting against your friends... I bet this was a favorite toy for many years.
One of these games was used as a prop in the movie "Dave," about 1996 with Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver. Dave was a D.C. temp agency owner who impersonated the President. This was one of the games in the White House. Dave's game was powered by a crank, and rang a bell when the race was won.
Looks like a great Hobby not to mention that it seems like it could be very profitable! This looks like it can be sold to a collector for a very high value
I do not speak Russian or a similar language but I translated and I completely agree with you. I want to create plans for such a game. This came from a genius and the simplicity is great.
This was a beautiful restoration, and I think good call on the brass cup, really draws the eye. The simplicity of the mechanism is really a show, I think it would be very cool to have one of these
That's exactly why he shouldn't have done brass, you want the horses to be the center of attention with all their color. Not the dang pot you put the money/bets in. Should have done chrome
I'm blown away with the attention to detail such an amazing restoration you sir are by far my favourite restoration content creator thank you for all the time and effort you put into your videos
@@OldThingsNeverDie-Seeing as you did such a great job restoring it but went down to the brass instead of re-coating the chrome, I'm guessing that's a pretty difficult and demanding process. Would an electron sputtering machine be capable of putting down a good enough layer or would it just be too soft especially for a coin dish?
Es ist unglaublich, wie viel handwerkliche Mühe man sich einst gab um Spielzeug herzustellen. Heute wird alles lieblos aus Platick gegossen und wird genauso lieblos behandeldt und dann auf den Müll geworfen. Tolle Restaurierung, bitte weiter so. Es lohnt sich, diese alten Schätze zu retten.
Such a fun game! I loved playing this as a kid. My great grandpa had one in his den. We used to play while he told me stories about his life and adventures on the railroad. Beautiful restoration thank you for the wonderful memories.
This person is an absolute master of his craft. He is also a perfectionist. I sat here watching the entire video and was transfixed at his artistry. Thank you for posting this incredible restoration.
I love in particular that you do a lot of old games, more than most of the other channels. Mixes my interests in such a glorious way, and makes watching your vids an automatic click. Beautiful work dude.
Je suis toujours émerveillée par ces jours de travail résumés en quelques minutes. Voir ces objets voués à la destruction revivre comme s'ils venaient d'être fabriqués, c'est tout simplement magique. Merci pour tout le travail et l'ingéniosité que vous mettez à cela.
I just wanted to write a comment here to express my appreciation for your excellent videos, as I find them outstanding, not only for the ability to restore something "old", but for the way you display your videos. For example, a great success is not to add music or elements that are distracting. The sounds of the brushes, hammers, sandpapers and other tools that you use in your restorations have something magical that relaxes a lot. Thank you very much for sharing your videos and I hope you keep doing this. For me, they´ve been an extraordinary discovery!
I put this on specifically because I thought it would be boring but I now I can't stop watching. This person is clearly expert; it is satisfying to watch him do all the things so well
As an avid toy maker I find your videos incredible. I always learn something worth the time it takes to watch you work. Thankyou so much. Be well, God bless.
I have never seen this game before, but you have done a marvellous job of restoring it. I can imagine children having lots of fun playing with this at Christmas after being given it, and even the adults joining in too. It's such a worthy addition to your catalogue of restored items.
Increíble el nivel de detalle y amor que le pones tanto a la restauración como a los vídeos. Felicidades haces un trabajo maravilloso , un saludo desde España 🇪🇸
I found watching this made me emotional, we quickly discard objects because of age and wear that are true works of art. Much respect to you Sir for the amazing dedication to your craft, it was a pleasure to watch.
This was a cool restoration. I don't see any other channels doing old mechanical game restorations, it is very interesting. You could make a playlist of just those items. I thought it was brilliant how you remade the broken pieces from the horse racer!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I tip my hat to your skill and dedication towards the finished product, it's better than new. What's more is I've never seen one of those toys in my 60 plus years, but upon a time some youngster sure received a great present there.
Magnifique! Non seulement, nous découvrons des objets sortis de l'oubli aux mécanismes souvent ingénieux mais en plus de cela, vous préserver du patrimoine du "monde d'avant" en réalisant des restaurations de haut niveau. Chapeau ! Que demander de mieux ? 🙂
You should name one of them Yeowzer, after my retired race horse! He had 79 runs and won 15 times! Made 200k, and was a fantastic racer! Retired last year and is enjoying his new job
These restoration guys never cease to amaze me with their craftsmanship acumen. Every time I see the beginning of one of these videos where they show the old rusted, beat up and damaged item, all I see is garbage; while they see potential. I really wish I had the eye, understanding and capability to do these restorations; it seems like a really neat and rewarding hobby.
Formidable ... Je n'avais jamais vu ce jeu de course et je n'arrivais pas à comprendre comment il était possible que des chevaux puissent courir puisqu'ils étaient sur la même baguette deux par deux. Félicitations pour le bon travail accompli
Dear OTND. You should know that I wrote list's only about subjects that interest me. Know too that your renovation was great! Glad to see someone giving with kindness, another life to old objets.

Yours are my favorite of all the restoration videos out there. You add such a unique charm, and do an incredible job. Always look forward to what cool new thing you're going to find and restore next.
How do you remember where everything goes? I could take it apart, heck, I've taken lots of thing apart...But putting them back together is where I run into problems. LOL Literally amazing craftsmanship!
Your work is outstanding and the items you refurbish are unique and interesting. And I think you have found the correct balance of how much of your work to show in your videos. I feel that I know all of the steps you have taken, and I am never tempted to fast forward. Great Job!
Franchement génial, non seulement tu restaure un jeu issu du patrimoine, et en plus avec le soucis du détail, et pas comme tous ces "restaurateurs" à 2 balles qui te sortent des pièces rouillées comme jamais, avec de la terre dessus, tu as l'impression qu'il a fait la guerre le truc ...... LA ça m'a l'air authentique et pas biaisé comme beaucoup d'autres, et ce sens du détail, du perfectionnisme comme j'aime, chapeau l'artiste !!!
I know they don't have to be that detailed, but as a miniature model painter I really wanted to get my hands on those horses haha. Great work all the same!
Outstanding work, what a stunning piece! Love to see skillful people restoring these old beautiful things, giving them life once again. They don't make things now a days like they did then....
This is some amazing work. But one think i always find tricky when watching restoration videos is how much is too much. At what point is it no longer the original and at what point is too much of its history lost. When you look at it before hand, all the wear and tear, it obviously tells a story about what and how much its been used.
Usually when i watch this type of videos i skip them to the end to see the results but man, the dedication and the patience you have. cant skip a second of it. Truly amazing.
Excellent work dude 👏👏👏. Skills and techniques used is extremely impressive, as is the obvious amount of patience you have to achieve the finished standard. Also, you did a great job showing everything you did whilst keeping the length of the vid down to like, 20mins. But honestly, I could've easily watched 40mins+ of you working your magic 😁. Thanks man 🙏. 😎
My Mom always LOVED horse racing; it’s a pity there wasn’t a game like this available back when she was alive. Have the thrill of horse racing on a rainy/stormy day and NOT have to go to the track! 😃🐎🏆
What a beauty piece! You gave it the love it deserved I think. Thank you so much for this vid (and all of them) they teach and entertain, and there's no heart stomping heavy metal background music, just work, it is very cathartic to me. :)
Hi. I have just dicovered your channel and find it fascinating and really relaxing to watch. The care and attention that you show is amazing - from the mechanical attention to the professionalism in audio and visual aspects of the production. I've even put some of your videos on in the background just to listen to the sounds while I've been working!
This is a mechanical work of art, worthy of meticulous restoration. I see it made it to the right place. Beautiful job ! I can't describe how bad I wanted this piece after watching this lol!
What an amazing restoration! I love your attention to detail. I also love this object, I never knew such a game existed. I think I would have had a lot of fun playing with this as a kid, and I definitely would have given names to all the horses 😀
I love how you took the time to deburr several of the parts, you took it beyond a restoration, to an improved version of the original object. That may be a big no no in art conservation/restoration, but in this cases like this 👍👍.
I am 81 years old, ( & in the UK ) so when your channel was offered to me, by You Tube, I had to see what it was about. ( O.T. N. D. ) And I am so glad that I did, as your engineering skills, patience, & restoration knowledge, are remarkable!

Did I just read the comment in The British accent in my head?
I'm sure whoever first made this fantastic machine would love to know that it has been so skillfully restored to such a high quality.

It is hard to imagine it nowadays with all our technology and plastics and throw-away society- but just picturing a child getting this as a gift back "in the day"- it must have been amazing.
Bright colors, shiny metal, heavy, multiplayer, a mechanism that makes the horses absolutely fly around the track, betting against your friends... I bet this was a favorite toy for many years.
🐎🎠🎠👍🏻🙏🏼
This is not a toy , most probably an antique item , for a collection .
I don't think it was a children's toy, but more a gambling game for a bar, likely to try to get free drinks.
A child?, I want this NOW
To play and bet in real time, this is straight FIRE
@@AbuMaia01 Probably a little pricey for most kids back in the day They marketed this type of thing as a toy for executives or an adult's man cave.
That simple repair for the jockey using the two part putty as a mold blew my mind. By far my favorite restoration yet! Outstanding craftsmanship
And the winner is…us!
For witnessing such an amazing restoration!
Great job!

Dave was a great movie.. Kevin Klein was a great actor... He should have been in many more movies...
I was just thinking of that movie!
Beautiful job😮
Blast from the past 🎬🎞👍👌
Love that movie
I thought I was going to skip around but this was absolutely transfixing. What an excellent restoration

First time I haven't skipped in a video like this! 👍
It actually locked me in. Hahaha
you start to watch thinking how tedious it would be to have to do that only to blink and 21 minutes have passed.

Never knew I liked antique restoration, looks like a great hobby.

I was surprised by the easy disassembly, and I love your attention to detail on the repaint. Absolutely gorgeous restoration, and I love your videos!

Beautiful work. I love how you show every item you restore with respect. I think it looks better than it did when it was new.
this restoration process has really brought back life to this racing game - absolute magic
I get overwhelmed watching you take it apart you're amazing that you can put it all back together
Such a fun game! I loved playing this as a kid. My great grandpa had one in his den. We used to play while he told me stories about his life and adventures on the railroad. Beautiful restoration thank you for the wonderful memories.
What a funky, elaborate old piece. I love that you restores these cool old things!

The original inventor was amazing! But I am just as amazed by your restoration!👏
There’s never been built a more beautiful luxurious toy since. What a privilege to have used such a toy.

About the music part, i completely agree that this is an excellent choice while making the videos.
Thank you for this elaborate comment, I stand with every word you've said in appreciation of this guy's videos.
relaxed me enough to fall asleep when i wanted to actually watch it lol
What an amazing transformation you did. Never seen such a game, but you brought it all back to life again. Thumbs Up!
My wife has no interest in renovation vids and even she was impressed with how well this turned out, a beautiful job.
I could never trust myself enough to take something apart, much less restore it to a better state. Impressive.
I know. I could take it all apart and then look at it and say, impossible.
I put this on specifically because I thought it would be boring but I now I can't stop watching. This person is clearly expert; it is satisfying to watch him do all the things so well
вау, первоклассная реставрация, уважение мастеру 👍
Translation:
wow, first-class restoration, respect to the master 👍
Но на деньги яб в такую бы не сыграл, особенно если "взводящий" в числе игроков
Просто супер, какая проделана кропотливая работа. Вы настоящий мастер своего дела.

I must say, this was pretty awesome! Perfect object and perfect restoration. But your audio is a secret hero of the video. Very nice overall package
Amazing work! So many fiddly little moving parts and you got it running perfectly!
The way you are so careful and precise with this piece makes me so happy. It looks amazing by the way!!
Your attention to detail and care in the restoration process are truly stunning. Well done.

they do? havent noticed. Can you link to a good example, maybe its more obvious to me now that im aware of it
How can you tell this person isnt also doing that
I continue to be impressed with the level of skill you have to do these restorations. Thank you.
That was a delight watching this restoration from it’s aged original piece to its new and refreshed look 👍😊
I love that these are vintage toys headed for the trash heap! Wonderful work making it look authentic!

When the machine was first made, was it all worn??
He literally used the same nails as the original. it is a perfect restoration that honors and revives the piece

I had to watch this a second time. The amount of work you put into this was incredible. Awesome outcome.
I'm a fan of every aspect of this channel. So glad youtube recommended you!
This is such an amazing piece and your talent has made it so beautiful again! Bravo!!!
Wow this is amazing to watch. I appreciate how much energy you put in these restaurations. Also this is an incredible piece of a mechanical toy
Perfect channel for those who don't want to go insane from another post-covid relapse. My sanity is restored, thank you!
Finally the headless rider and his three hoofed horse are back in the race.Great restoration that is heartwarming and authentic.
Sou do Brasil 🇧🇷
E admiro demais seu trabalho.
Parabéns.
I am completely obsessed with your incredible restorations. Your attention to detail is amazing.
What an amazing restoration! I love your attention to detail. I also love this object, I never knew such a game existed. I think I would have had a lot of fun playing with this as a kid, and I definitely would have given names to all the horses 😀
I love how you took the time to deburr several of the parts, you took it beyond a restoration, to an improved version of the original object. That may be a big no no in art conservation/restoration, but in this cases like this 👍👍.
Fascinating, ingenious, mesmerising - a wonderful watch. Restoring the headless horseman was a winner for sure😮!
