This just proves that they made things to last back then. Lovely restoration.
I love antique things, tools, furniture, old radios, old steam railroad engines, and everything else. I like them even more to see them restored and brought back to life.
Me to . I appreciate the quality of materials and the craftsmanship that went into them and the generation that made and used them
I love old tools like this. You did a wonderful restoration job on it.
Now you own a pristine piece of tooling history. Well done.
Sit thank you for restoring history
You brought back fond memories
Well the 4 remaining Mechanic's in my Family will be sitting on the edge glued to this video. Loved it. I have an Old Ratchet too. Got given to me along with an Old Double Barreled an a bunch of other Antiques. Very Cool job putting it back together, remembering what pin goes where an what screw goes where too. Thank you for Sharing. Stay Safe.
I own this tool, and used to see them around second hand around 45 yrs ago.
the two handles should be the same overall length. The one you reconstructed should swivel probably on that nub you found in place of the second handle ( I don't know what kept it from falling off as did yours). This is important because that swivel handle unscrews at the base and can be relocated in the screw hole at the top an in line with the bit.
I've assumed that it's meant to accommodate square based auger bits. My major use has been to use the swivel on top and to chuck in square based screw drivers. With stubborn screws, this gives excellent purchase (better even than a brace because the fixed handle is lower). For this purpose it's the best tool I've ever come across.
Enjoy it for many years.
Unique ratchet. Nice tear down. Nice clean up and paint job. Beautiful restoration.
Отлично! Умели раньше делать инструмент! Сколько лет его почистили,смазали и вот он опять в работе! Спасибо мастеру за работу и видео! Люблю старый инструмент.
I never new my ratchet came from such ridiculous beginnings... thanks.
Interesting tool, and good rebuild. Old made new again. Thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming.
Nicely restored my friend. 👌 it's obvious that you have love and passion for these tools ❤👍👌
How interesting. Never seen one before. Thanks for showing how it works. Great job.
Way efin kool that is stuff not hardly if ever even seen theesse days .Job Well Done. Much Respect J.
What remarkable devices they had. Great job.
Very cool thanks for sharing your restoration with us
Really nice restoration of a cool old tool :-) The old tools have so much more character! I collect them when I can and use them too. Pretty easy to keep up with all of the characters in your video production as well lol.
That ratchet is a really nice antique tool, I have never seen one like it before and your restoration was well done. However, I would suggest that anytime you have moving metal parts that actuate against additional metal parts, that you do not paint the area where there is metal to metal contact. Those areas should be totally free of all paint, grease, and gunk. After completion of cleaning all the parts, there should be either a dry lubricant spray or grease (whichever is applicable) applied to the metal to metal contact areas. I would also suggest that a dry lubricant spray should be applied to all pins and linkage parts. Personally, I would never use any type of oil or grease lubricants such as WD 40 or 3 in 1 oil or thread grease on any open moving parts. Inasmuch, as such type lubricants will draw both dirt, trash, and air-born contaminants to the area which becomes pure gunk. Within a period of time, such gunk will prevent the freedom to move as the part is designed to move and to freely operate without sluggish effort or total binding. It would also be advisable to rethread all screws, bolts, and nuts using the appropriate size thread chaser for each, before attempting to reassemble the parts. (i.e.) Wire brushes work wonders when cleaning away gunk from screws, bolts, nuts, etc. but such cleaning tools cannot restore any threads which may have become chipped, bent or otherwise damaged.
I love tooling of all kinds, its great to look at a piece of history. I have at least 6 ratchets from 1/4 to 1/2'' use them all the time and never once gave it any thought to how they even evolved. Looking at this ratchet is what a tube TV is to a flat screen.
I noticed you used an old screw driver as a drift or chisel, hit it with a hammer, not something I would do. The restoration job turned out great, though the rust remover used was not very effective. Keep up the great work.
Great job! Lovely Wrench!
I didn't know such a tool existed, I'm glad it found its way to you, and not the scrap bin, i use paint pens to pick out lettering on tools. Tony, Australia.
i imagined making a mouse size paint roller... with mini tray of course.
So much detail and dedication in your restoration beautifully restored
Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed the video it is a really neat tool
That is one kooky tool. Nicely done.
Judging by the way it works this must be the forerunner to an air ratchet. Great video and I must tip my hat to you sir.
Excellent, I am definitely going to try a tool soon. (so far i have just been doing toy truck/cars). I'm happy to be your latest subscriber!
Nice piece, man. I was unsure of the paint, but it came out alright. Keep going...
Wonderful job on restoring that 1921 rachet! I've never seen one before. Now I'm going to be on the lookout for one. My oldest tool has family roots. See my dad worked as a machinist at the plant they made at in the 1960s. He was born in 1912. It is a 1909 H.K. Porter Hypowa dead on bolt cutters. I had a flea market vendor show be them and they were very rusty. I bought them and did my magic of cleaning of the rust and taking them apart which surprisingly was very easy. I painted them black with red lettering on handle. They look beautiful next to all the 17 other tools from that plant! Great job again!
Thanks
Thanks for sharing your story. Old tools are awesome
Una maravilla tecnológica de hace 98 años!!!
👀👀😀😀
That’s bad ass.
Nice job , very clever old ratchet...
Great video
Nice wrench and restoration! =D
You can tell the quality of tools just by looking. Look at those pliers, both are well made, you can just tell by the color!
Nice!
It is so cool, neat, nifty that you used old tools to take apart an old tool. 😀
Nice restoration job. As long as bolts are easy to get to, this ratchet works well. if you have to get into tight spaces not so much.
Excellent.
Clearly designed for a specific task or situation. It would be cool to know what it was for. A ratchet that requires no swing at all is pretty novel, but it had clearance requirements to work the handle. I suspect it may have been part of a tool kit for a specific piece of military equipment. Nice job on the restoration and video.
I think it's an aircraft wrench, I saw something very similar whilst working as a aircraft technician..
Very well could be. 18 years after the first flight of an airplane. I’m not sure if radial engines were common yet but a lot of tight places on those. 39 years now for me active duty and contract work on government aircraft and it does remind me a some special tools I’ve seen before but I’ve never seen that exact tool.
This is for a tractor or maybe a radial aircraft engine or the like. Highly similar tools exist today in the aerospace world.
Lol Red beat me to it. Not military myself but I've wrenched on many radial engines. And turboprop.
Cool ratchet bro
Nice job
Hi Get Go Tv👋👋👋very good restoration 👍👍👍
Nice job.
Great restoration!
I think it's an aircraft wrench.. I saw something very similar whilst working as a aircraft technician..
That was so cool! 🙂
Thanks
Kewl. Didn't know there was such a thing.
Very informative and well done, we also have install videos Thank you for the content
It was made to do bolts or nuts in enclosed spaces ,pretty helpful is some areas better than trying to swing a spanner .
What's the advance to giving it a chemical bath before the wire brush? Great job
Very Unusual wrench. I am not so sure you should actually use it being so unusual. A display piece would serve it well. Thumbs Up!
so it only goes in one direction?
*turns pawl around*
Ooooooh!
why paint the bearing surfaces, tho?
Where did you find that, I love it. I'm a technician and love old stuff look like this for my collection, I just bought a gold snap on ratchet, it was anniversary edition just for conversation piece, but do you know the year of that ratchet, and where did you find it at?
Hey Chris seen your inquiry on the 1921 ratchet
I also own the exact same piece.
I've recently inherited it and am willing to part with its very good condition...brows gotta @gmail.Com HMU ill send photos
Esta muy buena esa matraca me la podrías regalar excelente trabajo no conocía una así
I thought those two washers that fell out on the disassembly together were on the opposite side of the sprocket-wheel and not against the sprocket. Just a thought. Nice video.
Super tare
Dostum, güzel bir çalışma sonucu, bir ihtiyarı tekrar hayata döndürdün. Tebrikler. Daha öncede söylediğim gibi, detayları fazla görüntülüyorsun ve bu nedenle videon fazla uzun oluyor. Buna dikkat et lütfen. Çalışmalarında başarılar dilerim.
Столетний инструмент, сделано на совесть!
A specialty Ratchet, I wonder what it's intended use was for ? Aircraft Boats/ships or even Trains I have seen several newer ones and owned a few modern specialty ratchets but I am curious. short through. If you ever have to restore it again Might I suggest a good powder coat. From my understanding they take much more abuse and hold up much better. I know anodizing old tools is impractical unless you want to show off the use marks. Good restore and keep it up.
Bet you thar is Japan black. Japan black consists mostly of an asphaltic base dissolved in naphtha or turpentine, sometimes with other varnish ingredients, such as linseed oil. It is applied directly to metal parts, and then baked at about 200°C (400°F) for up to an hour.
Hand tool rescue did a bit of a thing on that the other day. ua-cam.com/video/SBqgpdBNrt8/v-deo.html
Man, that's a pretty specific ratchet. I wonder if it was made for a particular application.
'if it was made for a particular application'
That's what I thought too
That wrench looks more cumbersome than anything
Wouldn't be fun to put real leverage on it and yet hold it place at the same time
@@AtticusDraco , I'm a retired mechanic, I have a giant tool box in my garage with obsolete tools. That wrench is clearly for tightening/loosening a very specific bolt. Like maybe a body panel or door. It was probably really something special in it's day. I'd love to see a complete set of auto mechanics tools from the 30s or 40s.
Cool
I can see why they are a rare tool.
Well,Rustoleum may make great spray paint,but their rust remover is awful..😝
Please try "Evaporust",or use the electrolysis method for your next project..😊
Will save you a lot of time at the wire wheel...☺
Thought the same 👍🏻
I've never used it but it looked pretty effective to me.
@@ericcorse
After watching dozens of these,the electrolysis really beats everything for removing heavily rusted pieces..
It's more involved and takes a little longer but it removes all the iron oxidation without damaging the base material...☺☺
@@larannar123 There is no doubt about that.
Good job. Rust remover a little weak causing too much time with wire wheel.
You did nice just suggest not to draw it out so long. Good job though
Is it any faster than a more modern ratchet?
Different tool for a different job
Whatever it is at end, it has a huge long horn!
great job. cant understand the way you treated that perfect perfect handle screwdriver its not a punch or a drift
I was thinking the same, a brass rod will both not mark the surface of the tool being restored and the hammer will last far longer as well.
Tape off the parts where there is friction..that's why it was tight going back together..paint added thickness to them..
I was thinking the same thing. It's either that or don't even paint it at all. I noticed he skipped a few parts as well. That may have been where he was cleaning the paint off of those areas.
Agreed, it was the only poor choice I saw, other than that it looked good, but function afterwards looked tight and tedious. B grading on the work, not bad, but not top notch. Good learning experience for the guy.
He did excellent, but I feel a few more parts needed to be greased as well.
where do i get 1
Why don't you use a glass bead or soda blaster for rust removal?
$$$$$$$$ ?
Lamentável que não fabricam mais
It looks nice now but how long for, interesting video
Depends, some of them enamal paints are quite tough but expensive
Let's see how many of today's ratchet wrenches are around in 2120 lmao. Very well done indeed.
I'll bet was expensive when new nice resto.
Overly complicated design but it works.
an antique... dont let it go..
Прикольно 👍. Гайковёрт на минималках
I think that ratchet was just slightly more useful back then as it is now.
Clean the flats where the screw pins go and cold blue them. Awesome job, turned out nice!
Good job. But need focus and close camera
I agree. Have changed cameras now how are you doing and that works a lot better
Also I love that you used an antique wrench to repair an even older antique wrench lol. Wrenchception hahah
There are areas of this unique wrench, like the bearing surfaces, that should have been masked off and never painted....only greased. Otherwise, nice job!
It was for “work in confined spaces “ See www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?pn=1391619&id=27469 for the patent.
Nice job but the need to work on the sound.
I'll wager you saved one of the only ones left......... Those had to be rare.....
Neat video but you need to work on camera placement. Keep the focus centered and don't zoom so close.
Please no music! Takes away from your great work.
Rube Goldberg comes to mind.
Paint on the working surfaces! Really?
never seen a ratchet like that I know why they're extinct very interesting though
Yeah when sears stole the Robert's ratchet design from an employee. The whole industry changed with it
Ha Ha, A Samsung TV right behind the bench grinder so a nut or piece of tool can shoot out and go right through the LCD screen. Or at least that's my luck, OKAY, Back to watching.
9:03....🤣🤣🤣🤣я думал он уже пол пальца отбил на правой руке!
I could use that ratchet right now.
А пескоструить непробовал?
А может её у него нет ??!
I wouldn’t be working on cars in the 1920’s!!! Rather use a crescent wrench 🔧
Fantastic !! SuBsCriBeD !!! 👊
I like your videos, and your restorations are good. Just need to trim down the length of the videos to just catch glimpses of all the steps. But keep up the good work!
Why don't you guys ever just drop the whole thing in the rust remover before trying to take it apart?
You should also tape off mating surfaces.
The qtip grease application is incredibly annoying and unnecessary! Looks nice
Pissed me off by the end too.
🤣18:18в том году когда это создавалось на заводах тоже сидели парни с пинцетами и всë это собирали?! 🤣
