1962 Tonka Drag Line Mobile Crane Digger Restoration Dragline
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2022
- I purchased this 1962 Tonka Dragline Crane on eBay December 18th 2021 for $134.14. The crane was amazingly complete for being 60 years old with no major issues outside of having extensive rust and dirt build up. The cranes boom assembly was bent up very badly and the body had multiple dings. After sandblasting the body showed many rust pits which I filled with JB weld and sanded flat. Overall I love how this toy cleaned up and how well it looks now. Thanks soo much for watching!

Incredible. I had my tonsils out when I was seven years old and my mom and my dad got me this very same bucket lifter as a gift for being in the hospital. Thanks chip for the incredible memories. Keep up the great work.
These are the ones I like best. My nick name when I was little was Diggers. Thanks for the great entertainment.
oh!!! little Beaker!!
stunning beautiful jaw-dropping restoration!!!!
No annoying music, no talking, plenty of info, beautiful shots, masterful work.
Congratulation chip Channel the Fábio and Rafael from Brazil. The best restauration. Long life the chanel.
I had a few Tonka trucks growing up. When I went into the Air Force, my younger brother gave them all to a neighbor kid.
My favorite was the drag line crane. In 1964 when my parents had this house built. My drag line crane dug the first scoop for the basement. A real tracked drag line did dig the basement.
I love watching you restore these vehicles.... My husband is amazed at how many you have!
It's become somewhat of an addiction... If I don't admit to it being a problem ... it's not a problem right?! haha
no higher honor or respect can be bestowed upon someone who has painstakingly restored these distressed toys . these toys have mysterious powers that have brought joy and enchantment to us and we personally thank you for this wonderful entertainment . regards; mr and mrs claus and elfin family . ; ]
A great restoration. I spotted a new tool I had not seen before when you were taking the tracks off. My mother would say, "You have the patience of a saint." Thank you for another visit to your workshops.
Thank you for again starting my week off with a miracle. Watching you turn rust into a toy I would serious love to play with is just ..... incredible. And of course, LONG LIVE THE CYCLOPEEP!
Thank you for not having annoying music or adds or talking. Just having the basic videos. Great work.
Love how that J-B Weld works to fill in the pits, but I cannot imagine the repetitive motion aches and pains you endure sanding these parts. I would be constantly seeking an mechanical alternative! 😉 Beaker’s reaction to the paracord is precisely how my cat would react… she’s starting to be a real scene-stealer! Thanks as always for great entertainment and knowledge, Chip! 👍👍👍 ~John
Thank you Primus54!!! Yup, I love the performance of the JB weld, has definitely worked well for me, but yes... my muscle between my thumb and pointer finger takes the brunt of the pain ha. Beaker is definitely becoming a character, she'll be 2 years old May 14th of this year. She's a very spoiled kitty haha.
@@ChipChannelRestorations I love how she inspected the finished product including giving the line a tooth test.
@@ChipChannelRestorations
There’s no point in having a pet if you’re not going to spoil it.
@@Ambidexter143 Totally agree!
@@ChipChannelRestorations Spoiled and getting fat too. I have a few spoiled critters of my own.
You do some great work Chip some really nice turnouts...I will be watching regularly
awww what an affectionate pet owner. little Beaker loves you so much. your interaction is so sweet
Тhe result is impressive Mate !👍👍👍
I don't know why, but the blasting of old paint and rust, and seeing pristine metal underneath is my favorite part of the videos! Keep up the excellent work!
One of my favorite parts as well! Thanks again for watching Floyd Drew Jr!
No doubt Mine as well Made me feel like a little kid " I want to do some ! Let me try ! Lol

Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Good morning Slim WantedMan!!
Such a joy to watch ❤️
Awesome work! Looks better than new!
LOVE your use of macro lens so we can REALLY get up close to see your great craftsmanship!!! Thanks!! ;o)
The sheep are missing, did you forget to open the barn and let them out today lol 🤣 great job as always Chip Channel, and I thought Beaker was going to eat the new ropes on the Tonka the way she was sniffing there, she's a good inspector
I'm impressed how many common parts there are between all these models. This to the mobile crane, to any of the normal trucks!
Well done! Great resto work!!😄🤟🛠️🔧😁 Your kitty is a little character!😁
These Tonka toy are so cool. Can’t wait for the tank to be restored.
Nice job it's great to see real Cooper tanka turck restored thank you
I think it's cool how you restore vintage metal toys to make them look like new. Keep it up and gool job.
KITTEH!!!! Came for the resto, stayed for the kitteh!
I didn’t have this Tonka, but I do have the Ants in the Pants game. That brought back great memories from the early 70’s. Great job! Thanks for the video.
The beauty of Tonka just knock the rust off
Nice work on all your restorations. And I love the kitty.
That joint where the boom folds pinched my fingers so many times as a kid I had anxiety watching Chip messing with it lol.
Absolute perfection once again!
Love the yellow "Ants In Your Pants" Ant game piece you found. I loved that game when I was a kid. Another great video. Thank you!!!!
So cute... 60 years old. 🤩🤩
Thanks again!
An amazing restoration. Such a cute kitty.
I like watching these restorations
You have a beautiful collection of restored trucks.

Chip, the best video on Sunday. Thanks, Buddy. 🥰
Thanks soo much for sticking around and supporting my channel Alvaro Lucard!!
Outstanding restoration of one of the more interesting Tonkas.
I wish that I could get one of these for myself as a reminder of my father who was a operator of one of these
Yes! New video! Finally! I can stop listening to “Stamp collecting” with Burt Mustin.
HA! Thanks for watching Mike P!

You were lucky today. Tha catspector was only testing the tension of the cables. She knows what is important , safety wise , on a crane .
The attention for all the small things is outstanding . Bravo !
I've never wanted to drive a backhoe before until now!
They had the best toys ... shame our kids grow up with plastic junk. Thank you for preserving our past.
An damn beauty again Chip ! Fabulous restoration again.
Two thumbs way Up on this restoration !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One more old time toy brought back to life with your fine know how 👍

Immaculate workmanship with a perfect result. I love this one and cannot believe the tracks are the original ones. Beautiful.
That turned out awesome! Lots of hours and it shows in the final finish. It’s another fine piece for the personal collection.

Wow I had the same one back in the 60's when I was a kid.I miss it now. Another super excellent video by Chip!Great work !!
You are bribing the inspector. lol
Inspections are too hard to pass without a bribe these days... you know ... emissions standards and all haha. Thanks for watching Andre Sarmento!
Thought i had all the TONKAS when I was little i didn't get this one 🤗 thanks chip 👍🏾💯🏆
Cieszę się że tak długie filmy i widać cały proces renowacji, jednak spokojnie można oglądać w tempie x2. Od niedawna subskrybuję, piękna kolekcja i ciekawe hobby.
Bardzo dziękuję za oglądanie!
My dad had a toy just like this when he was a kid
Very nostalgic seeing these old Toys restored even though I didn't own most of them, it still takes me back
Fantastic, this is better than the original toy!
Excellent job....You do amazing work toys I played with as a kid.

Another fine restoration right there even the cat agrees. Keep up the good work.
Amassing quite the fleet, aren't you, Chip? 🙂
Amazing !!!
and its the first time your cat is interested in one of your fine restorations lol
This restoration video really inspired me!
As good as new! Possibly better 😁👍❤️
Thanks again for watching Leigh Martin! Have a great Sunday!
Wow another great job Chip!! Always look forward to your new episodes coming out. Was surprised that you didn't have to prime this one twice. Saved a lot of wet sanding by only having one. Fine looking addition to the collection, and the junkyard still appears full!! Thx for sharing your talents and passion
like your kitty, really like your sweet kitty I watch all your restorations like your videos.
2k views in 30 minutes! Well done 👏
Thanks soo much Disgruntled Vet Gaming!!

You never disappoint my friend, ✌🏼💙👍🏼 you are the LEONARDO DAVANICI OF RESTORATION 👍🏼💙✌🏼😅🤣
I have my original one, I am looking at it on my shelf two feet from me as I type this, from 1967. It was my surprise gift when I got home 3 days after I had my tonsils out. It is I great original condition.
