Hi folks! I saw this old chaff cutter on a towel lying on the ground at a Flea Market, and I observed its unique beauty, so my heart roared: Restore it! So I did! I hope you like the video! Thank you for your time and support! Johhny!
Aahh nothing like having a bowl of ice cream then going to my room and watching restoration videos to go to sleep. And for those who don't know what chaff is it's the husks of corn or other seed separated by winnowing or threshing.
The thing I guess that triggers ASMR for me is watching the sand blasting. It amazrd me! Such a simple thing but so powerful and precise. Could watch someone do that for hours!
Looks great! I think the blades should not be sharpened on both sides but just one. It needs adjusting so it cuts the hay like a shear. But it does look awesome!
I love what you do! You're an artist at bring back old metal things, and making them new again. You also use your talent in editing your videos, so they are fun and relaxing to watch! Well Done!!
Magnificent restoration, bravo! There was something similar at a great uncle's farm, but bigger. We had to make sure that the hay was really dry, or else we'd end up with a lot of mashed something!
That was a more challenging and complicated restoration than you’d at first expect - but you did a lot of hard work and did an awesome job! Great video.
That's true! The broken bolts at the beginning made me think twice if I wanted to go all in, but I decided to continue and see what this item would bring more. Till the end, it was very satisfactory, and I'm happy that I didn't give up on it.
Высверливать болты надо начиная с центрового отверстия, около3 мм и рассверливая до околорезьбового чистового. Остатки выйдут сами легко от первого метчика. Сразу последним околорезьбовым сверлить риск повреждения витков от увода
Hi Johnny! 👋👋👋 All I can say is if I had to use the chaff cutter we wouldn't be eating a lot of chaff. (whatever that is?) Thanks for another great video. Take care my friend! 👍
What sort of things cause a screw/bolt to become weak and break when trying to tighten or loosen it(1:12)?? Btw: Your restoration channel is my favorite channel, other channels just don’t have what yours does(although i can’t say what it is that your channel has that makes it so good and my favorite).
The fix is durable and sturdy. Welding such an old tin, full of rust pits, may cause you big surprises, such as getting huge holes in front of your rod, and you will just sit there and cry 😢 😂 Don't ask me how I know. 😅 And what will you get if welded successfully? The same result! (It is not a water tank), so, does it matter? 😆 PS: 99% of people watching this show want to learn new methods and easy that everyone can do at home, so when I decide this, I'm thinking about them too. Not everyone knows how to use or owns a welding machine. Another PS: I weld when necessary; the next video will probably have a lot of welding; cast iron welding. Cheers 🍻
Aa a young child I would watch my father repair and build things. Today's children now have the opportunity to watch and learn tips from around the world. (Playing catch up. ;)
That was a great little restoration,surprisingly had a lot of moving parts,luckily no real damage to mechanisms.good job,just keep on doing what you do best and carry on.great video 😎😎😎👍👍👍
I went to a welding shop to have a couple of broken bolts removed from a '73 Oldsmobile head manifold. He put a box-end wrench over it, burned off welding rod until it filled the wrench, then unscrewed it and knocked the bolt 'head' out of the wrench with a couple of firm whacks. Easiest method I ever saw.
@@rustyshadesrestoration That's the way I think it went, but that was 25 years ago. He may have pounded the box-end onto the still-molten slag....Long story short: try not to permanently weld one of your good wrenches to a bolt.
I'll say the bad things, all the rest was very good! :p -The patch you riveted to the dark piece (where the hay is fed) would better be soldered in place; -the colour, would that green be period correct? -kinda hard to find a sequence in the shots, I feel like there's a lot of jumping from one piece/task to another... I don't find a continuity throughout the video ; -watching the powder coating baking is so mesmerising, can you include it? This is just my humble opinion, I'm far from being expert in any of these matters. Just providing feedback you may find useful (or not! 😊) cheers!
Thank you! I appreciate any feedback. I will respond to you in lines: 1. Soldering or brazing will do the job, but I have done that many times,s, and I wanted to show other methods in this video (a doable method for everyone). 2. The color selection for the old farming item resulted from careful research and consideration. Historically, these items were often painted in light green, red or black. This is RAL 6021. (Please note, the color may appear slightly different due to the position of my studio lamps or camera settings. You can verify this by searching it on Google.) 3. We may need some chapters here to be easier to follow, but things are in order. If you skip, you may lose track. a)presentation b) disassembling c)cleaning rust d)repairs/making missing parts etc. e)painting f)all parts ready g)assembling h)presentation i) testing. Following this path makes sense and has some logic behind it, but we aren't all the same or see things the same, right? :D Cheers
@@rustyshadesrestoration thanks for the comprehensive response! Exactly, we're all different, I shared my view and obviously other people may and will have a different one. Keep it up! 💪🙏
Greetings from Russia. It looks like the handle was made of PCB. This is a composite material made from fabric impregnated with phenol-formaldehyde resin. Resistant to cracking, UV rays, good insulator, etc. It was used very widely in the past.
There is no second hole to push it out. It is like a deadlocked door from the outside. To enter, you must pick an axe 😅 like I picked the drill in this case.
Super jest to odrestaurowane tylko polecam na początku piaskować a nie jakiś tam chemię stosować piaskować metale później malować pozdrawiam serdecznie. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I've seen almost every video he's made and he always does a terrific job. But from my few restorations I've found soaking in oil after the cold bluing does nothing. I thinks it's a UA-cam myth.
Thank you for watching. It does a lot! If you don't soak the part in oil, it will be rusty again for 24 hours. The oil stabilises the solution and prevents fast oxidation. You're welcome!
Of course, I could, but the shop didn't had what I needed at that time and online would take too long, so I made my own. It is fun and relatively fast. 😀
The pittings and castmarks makes every item look terrible. You make the right choices of stuff to restore, just can't make the right finish especially the item's imperfections. I believe every item deserve a premium finish and with that makes a premium video. But great effort.
Thank you. I'm not always aiming to make things newer than they were or erase every mark on the item. Some are giving personality, and they are proof of authenticity. Too new can look bad too on antiques; trust me, they may become simple, cheap replicas. Cheers
Они очень острые, но их нужно отрегулировать и приблизить к сену. Эти болты предназначены для того, чтобы придвинуть лезвия ближе. Кроме того, он будет лучше работать с очень сухим сеном, но это всего лишь май :D
Hallo! Ja, das muss gemacht werden, aber ich glaube auch, dass ich besseres trockenes Heu schneiden kann; meins war ein bisschen nass. Danke für die Anregung.
You could have taken that thing and sprinkled it with fake rust and pretended it was actually much more damaged. Many channels do this trick, many channels make fun of their viewers by simulating FAKE restorations. With painted rust. You don't, you don't need this bullshit, that's why I'm here because you don't fool people.
I appreciate that you observed this fact. These kinds of channels are a shame for our niche, and they also can affect us, the ones who genuinely love the art of restoration. Best, Johnny!
Это грязь от тяжелой работы; это не позор, и в этом нет ничего уродливого или необычного. Перчатки издают раздражающие звуки, которые мешают ушам людей, и мне приходится часто ими пользоваться, что очень вредно для нашей планеты. Поймите, мыло и вода - это лучше :)

An interesting device. Hand power -- from a time when electricity was a novelty?
I think it can be from 30s to 40s. So yes, many villages weren't electrified.
The handle could be from Bakelit. Early plastic, quite popular in these days.
That's a relevant point. I will try to clean it.
@@rustyshadesrestoration It might be ebonit. Rub it - ebonit stinks.
Pretty sure that is Bakalite. Be very careful as they often put asbestos in it.
@@mago_8145 Bakelit stinks, too. But it stinks different.
I also heard if you rub Bakelite it smells like formaldehyde.

The handle looks like some kind of wood/wooden composite to me…

Спасибо вам большое! Мне приятно знать, что вам понравилось видео.
Well, that is unique. I've never seen nor heard of one of those, but apparently there was a need for it. Nice job. 👍
My thoughts exactly. I''ve tried to find a similar one on the internet, but I couldn't. Thank you!
It may have been a tobacco cutter. It was distributed and sold a a rope in some times and places.
In your hands, restoration looks like art😮 Good job ❤

Holding sheet metal while drilling it is a great way to get it to spin and cut you.

How does the drilling shown above at 6:47, not ruin the threads for the lugnuts?
Sorry never mind I saw that you later rethreaded the holes.
😀
Yes, anyway, I will need to do it because the old threads won't fit our new standards.
@@rustyshadesrestoration really? The thread standard changes after a few years?
That's not a few years; this machine was made in the 30s-40s.
