Rusty Old Coffee Grinder - Perfect Restoration
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2024
- In this video i'm restoring an old coffee grinder.
A few weeks ago I bought an old bench grinder to restore on eBay. The guy who sold it was actually selling more antiques, he had a room filled with old items. I took a look at his other stuff and this unique coffee grinder caught my attention right away. So I ended up buying it for $35. The one thing that really impressed me on this coffee grinder was the metal body, usually they're made of wood. I also liked the colour very much. The restoration itself turned out to be a lot more challenging than I first expected. I'm very happy with the final result of this coffee grinder. I really like how the handle turned out.
I hope you like my work and the video.

I like how he protected identity of the sand blaster switch. So considerate.
People were teasing him about how the covering of the switch was torn and he's just playfully teasing back. haha
@@EvilSandwich Haha! I was wondering about this as this was the first video from this channel I've watched. I was quite confused, but this makes a lot more sense, and I appreciate the humor!
@@EvilSandwich THANK YOU!
I just binged 14 straight videos on my xbox app and had to get onto my phone for this video just to comment on the button being blurred... sigh. Dude! I love your work! Nothing else to say. ❤❤❤
EvilSandwich that’s just great!
Did i need to watch a man fully restore an antique coffee grinder at 2 am?
No
Did i watch the entire video twice an now want to restore antiques?
100%
It's 4am here but I'm doing the same
it's mesmerizing
Scary how accurate. 2: 10 AM for me.
2:10am here too 😂
Damn son same here. 2 am even
I like how everything gets laid out on the table. It's amazing all the *hidden* parts there are.
Glad you enjoyed the video!🤗
These videos of his are addicting! Super relaxing, fun to watch, & you can’t resist watching to the end!
I envy people with skills like his! Super talented and kinda cool that he’s helping preserve unique items from history!
I love American restoration but I have to admit I’d rather watch his videos over their show cause his are 100% focused on the restoration process which is way more entertaining! Especially the sand blasting the milling parts & polish parts! Something almost zen like watching him bring metals back to life!
Thank you :-)
Especially for English-speaking posters. A Russian proverb: You can look at three things endlessly: how fire burns, how water flows and how other people work.
Damir 12345 thank you, damir. I am going to use this proverb forever now.
a german proverb: i'd rather watch a man work than watch him eat
That's what my boss do
and a fourth; how titties jiggle.
That's a beautiful proverb!
Just spent 26 minutes watching you restore a damn coffee grinder... awesome job!
Wait, that was 26 minutes????
it's not easier to buy a new one?
Man, honestly, this guy videos are the only one I watch from start to end. Man, specially if you smoke a blunt ... It blows your mind hHhaa
Dammit, now I wanna do something with my life
@@pavelsromislovs7678 Heh... that's not the point mate :)
This is what UA-cam is made for.
No it wasn't
must be a millenial who says that. youtube was very different at the beginning
Ôlol
Ich weiß nicht über was ich mehr staunen soll: deinen Maschinenpark oder deine handwerklichen Fähigkeiten. Einfach nur wow, kann mir deine Restaurationsvideos stundenlang anschauen. Weiter so, wirklich ausgezeichnete Arbeit 👍
Two most satisfying aspects of these videos: dude doesn’t talk and he makes his own nuts and bolts.
Even though it's no nut november. Oh wait..
Totally agree.
Makes his own rivets for goodness sake.
You should watch "The Machinist"
And no stupid music. Just machine sounds.
As it should be.
The button of the sand blaster is blurred because of a "meme ", it's has been broken for years, and people always ask him to restore it, it's just a funny thing he did in the video, nothing else
I came to the comments to specifically find out why it was blurred. Thank you.
Thanks i was wondering why he did it
I noticed that too! Classic.
Thanks....I asked this question then came to comments looking for the answer (just encase nobody replied) ☺️☺️
I laughed when i noticed it blurred because previous video comments!!!
Отличная работа. Между прочим, очень трудоемкая. Я не понимаю людей, которые ставят дизлайки.
Это можно смотреть бесконечно.
Я тоже залипла. Золотые руки ещё есть на земле.
Did not expect dude to just machine up new screws and bolts
Conor Francis I know its amazing
Talk about going the extra mile...
It was quite amazing, right?
That's one of the reasons I love watching this guy.
Good looks on the likes guys.This man deserves major props
My dad was an engineer & metalworker; I swear I could smell him, fresh home from the brass shop in his boiler suit, watching this in awe with me.
Joanne Carroll that’s nice
Joanne Carroll was?
This one really hit home for me
My great grandmother had a set of kitchen gidgets that she had since she was a teenager, that included not only a coffee grinder, but also a grease strainer, percolator, and a variety of fancy metal hot holders. By the time she reached 90 the years of being stored and mistreated had taken their toll. When she died my mom and I were going to take them and work on restoring them.
When we got to her house,our relatives who lived closer had already cleared out the valuables, leaving behind what was left of the set in a trash bin with a dozen bottles of bear.
On the bright side we managed to save the pie rack.
Gidgits 😅
After watching several of your videos I got my old Burg-Mühle BKF coffee grinder from the kitchen shelf (just for decoration), disassembled and cleaned it. Removed stains, etc. and now it’s working just fine. Thank you for the motivation to do this.
I am liking for three reasons:
1. You put timestamps. Yes for timestamps.
2. You showed the final product working- thank you.
3. Sheer craftsmanship. Good job.
reasons he deserves much more than just a like lol
4. And there is no moronic music on the background
And no talking!!!
I might not be the best at math, but I only counted 4, where's the 3rd?
Thank you so much for not playing some obnoxious and irritating music in the background. Also, I can’t stand sped up videos and your video was perfectly edited to move things along. Finally, your restoration was amazing. You used modern parts and materials to replace broken or worn out parts. The results made a “Perfect Restoration.”
Jim Brown
Nicely stated Jim. Thank you.
Indeed my friend
Well put sir
You took my thoughts from my mind - perfectly said. What a fabulous craftsman.
Как я люблю старые вещи!
Спасибо Вам за работу!
Вот что значит мастер! Отличная работа! Всегда смотрю с удовольствием.
I don't know which is more satisfying, the restoration or the editing
Yes
Absolute perfection! I cant believe you filled in the holes and re drilled them because the countersinks were too big! The attention to detail and your craftsmanship are unparalleled! Keep up the great videos!
On car restoration side of things using brass or if possible copper plate behind the sheet metal and fill weld it is pretty common method. This way molten metal has something to support it, so it wont just drop off and steel wont connect to brass or copper. Also those metals are great heat conductors, so heat is pulled from steel by copper or brass and this way thin sheet metal warping from heat is minimized. Plate being big enough it has enough mass to absorb and spread the heat on the material so it wont even melt.
@@Hellsong89 thanks for the explanation
I learned quite a bit there
I love restoring old coffee grinders. You made a great transformation. It looks fantastic. 🎉😮
Just amazing. Likes from Pakistan 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
The degree of perfection is absolutely bonkers - but in a good way!
I didn't knew "bonkers" can be positive... Every day learning something new :)))
By far the most organized restoration Channel I am watching😊
Hahaha
It really is, most organized, pays attention to every part, detailed. Not just like others. Watched all of his vids and he is second to NONE. 😉
Real Restoration channel at its Best!
Completely agree. For such videos I want to make donations! :)
@@raygranita8756 others look quickie after this channel
@@MrGoodCatSCP one more thing, you gotta learn a new technique everytime.
You are like john Wick in restoration mode kindalike version. man of focus, commitment, sheer will and perfection 😅
Immer wieder schön :
Die Explosionspräsentation der geschundenen Teile und dann vor der Wiederherstellung des Objekts...
Vielen Dank!
Best restoration channel on UA-cam by far. Thanks for the great content
Without a doubt gotta give credit where it's due!!!
When this guy says “perfect restoration “ it *will* be an almost perfect restoration
I dunno, the grinder itself looked pretty janky and worn still.
Eternal Space Gaming am I wrong for saying restoration rea-store-ation
Televicious Goober tbh he should have redone the whole grinder mechanism because it looked really beat up
At least it works how it works
When I saw the title I thought he was going to just remove the rust and paint it. I doubt that the new grinder was as perfect as it now
Да, золотые руки, это редкость!
It's beautiful.
The device is born again. 🙂
I would love to see you restore a classic car from the ground up. No doubt in my mind that you could just build one from scratch including the motor. Superb work!!!
So many bolts to polish...
Ok ok there's a difference between cars and gadgets like this he might not even know much about cars😂😂😂
@@sargentr.a.t5468 Ha! I'm sure he would learn anything he needed to in order to make a perfect job.
"You can always remove material but you can't add it back"
my mechanics: Hold my welder
I was thinking the same thing during the video a couple times haha
There is too much material removed from this part
I make a new one
Im a deisel tech and a welder. That's one thing we know that we have that wood workers dont
@@decembersveryown5935 wood glue and sawdust my friend.
@Pyotr Ilych Tchaikovsky big guts
I simply cannot comprehend how your brain and your hands work this magic!
Thanks for watching :-)
This is, hands down, the best restoration channel on UA-cam. The attention to detail and quality of the end results are just phenomenal, always a pleasure to watch.
The best restoration channel with an actual machinist! Finally something more than just sanding/painting. This guy does it all!
you are one of the few on UA-cam that go "all out" on restoring an item, I know I could not afford one of your restored items as you put many hours into them, I was amazed at the level of the skill put into that coffee grinder.
Невидела дизлайков. Действительно,качественная и трудоемкая работа. Я купила такую как сувенир,деревянную,попробовала в работе,отлично перемалывает. Такую с удовольствием бы преобрела,молодец мастер🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your spray-can technique is well practiced and excellent.
It's just the perfect combo: No annoying background music, no fast forwarding, no unnecessary commenting, just the work doing the talking. Thank you sir!
I never knew watching restoration videos and reading the words: "I make new ones" would bring me such joy
I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite videos.
The most surprising part of this whole build is that you didn't make the brass screws.
Holy Smokes! This man makes his own Bolts and Nuts! The finished product...just wow!!
Thank you, much appreciated :-)
Ya I would love to have the tools and machinery to make nuts and bolts. Wow. Master class.
@@mymechanics , is this sort of a side hobby for you? Or is this what you do full time as gainful employment?
European man ( probably who talks german , probably swiss ) in late twenties shows tooling skills for us. Appreciated.
😳 How my UA-cam channel skipped from knitting to rusty coffee grinder I’ll never know....however, I sat mesmerized watching your process of restoration. Coming from a background in mfg I’ve always loved “How it’s made” and machinery and tools. This was awesome to watch. I had to forward to all my guy friends who make stuff. 👍👌🏼👏🏼🤙🏽
Algorythm 😄
Such a wholesome comment ☺️
you are the best restorer on UA-cam.....
These soothing meditations on perfection make the perfect antidote to watching an episode of Succession. Takes the taste out of your soul.
just realized he used the olive oil as lubricant so it would remain food safe. genius!
Olive oil will go rancid with time though.
And he used lead solder
HOwever, it's not a good idea to use olive oil on the grinding burr since it will contaminate the coffee. Unless you don't intend to use it. Then yes.
@@3DMegadoodoo I suggest Mineral oil, it is edible and will not go rancid. Great on cutting boards and wooden knife handles
@@RBG-tr9ce not all mineral oil is edible. It must be food grade. Walnut oil is a great go-to. It's used extensively in woodcraft as it won't decay or spoil.
this was amazing...
but incomplete without a steaming cup of coffee as a finisher
weesh maybe he’s gonna sale it later)
yeahhh , i need 1 cup fresh coffe
Imagine how many coffees this has made. How some man, some whole family maybe, lived their life fueled by this machine. And now another will be similarly greeted each morning with the grinds of this magnificent device, before toiling away to pass the hours.
And here we are, worthless.
I love watching these videos. They're so calming
Even the craftmanship of the washer for the nuts was incredible! Love this.
How do I explain to my boss that I’m tired because I stayed up watching someone restore a coffee grinder?!
haha good one ;-)
You could probably show him these videos.....He might understand your reason...😋😋
@@thechanandler5091 Better, he'd be so busy watching them, he wouldn't have time to yell at you...
Lol
Лт
The fact you went and fixed the shoddy beveling job on the handle even though it was fine as was is great. Truly a craftsman that cares about his craft.
I have watched dozens of his videos and the workmanship and quality is beyond belief.
But now i have him...the 4 screws are not indexed to be in the same direction...POW....got ya... : )
Great work and great videos. thank you
This guy is extremely talented. He knows a lot about metal working and has all the tools.
He is Superhuman , MetalMan ...
Metal yes, but not the wood, he ruined the original nob ..
I think he is schooled as a precision engineer.
You can say that again
Now this is a old man that I like
This man created threads with a triangle file. I've seen enough. He's just too good.
Hello!! Um I am conducting a survey for an internet debate, would you be interested in answering one question?
@Petraplexity ah :( um... well, have a good day anyways...
@Jared Lind are you the teacher who asks "I don't know, can you?" to every student who requests anything? ._.
I'm literary speechless, desperate for votes and made fun of as if I ain't no human BECAUSE I asked for some godamn opinions out of context
yet people WILL go out of their way to say another opinion without being asked for it
alright
I'm here for it, roast this comment, it's not like someone is burned the eff out and is sooooo ready to take their anger out on an innocent victim
@@cherrymarriedindiscord1404 Go ahead fam, what'd ya need?
@@rafa5361 omg you're an angel 😭 thank you!
The question is do you consider ear pulling to be abuse?
A one word reply can suffice as it's just to get a percentage
Das von Hand nachfeilen des Gewindes hat mir echt den Stecker gezogen! 😯 Chapeau!
The BEST restoration mechanic by FAR . .
Let me give you a compliment for having such clean hands and nails ❤️❤️❤️
I noticed that too... I was looking for scars... surely he's cut his finger using that stuff. No gloves when countersinking those holes... gutsy.
I love how he doesn't just fix things. No no. He fixes them, makes new pieces, and makes them pretty!
Yes!
It's sad how much he took the material off that was history just so it's "pretty" 😔.
This is when, in the right hands, any instrument becomes a violin ! Bravo !
Complimenti da un appassionato di fai da te. Non servono altre parole!
This man restored his own hands because they're always clean :3
Hahahaha wow
𝑹𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕! 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝑰 𝒅𝒐 𝒂 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒋𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝑰'𝒎 𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒃𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒕𝒆 𝒎𝒆𝒔𝒔.
That's because he make a new one if they get ugly.
Zauberer !
Thissssss. So attractive to see nice hands.
I put my safety goggles on while watching, I was that into it.
twohseven bruh me too😂
SaVaGe PoEt wow u good brother?
twohseven lol 😂 you’re so silly 😜
But good one ☝️⭐️
LOL
🤣🤣🤣
Finaly its finer then new, before 60 years ... - a great job
Glad to hear that, thank you very much
Your attention to detail is outstanding. The mark of a Mastercraftmen. Well done Sir.
What an enormous labour of love! Beautifully done, as always. I had other plans for this afternoon, but watching your videos always comes first. Thank you for sharing and for your excellent video techniques!
10:41 There's no way. He'll have to make a new one-
11:14 ...Oh. Well there's no way it'll look perfec-
12:13 ...He's a witch.
100% witchcraft
Lmbo big facts
He's a master of his craft!
wizard*
I did not think I would like the yellow, but man is that pretty! So bright and sunny. Like a bumble bee. Great job!
Every restored work is better than new
Perfection. Your attention to detail and how far you take this restoration is astounding and a real pleasure to watch. Well done!!!
I feared you will not grind coffee for the final test as it would make it dirty, but you did, which I approve!
I was only thinkink: PLEASE AT LEAST LET ME SEE THAT IT WORKS AGAIN! and he did. so my need was satisfied. This channel is so great!
He used the oil can he restored in following vids, as a matter of fact.
And the flathead screwdriver!
Incredible. He takes junk and turns it into a work of art.
悠久の時を感じるコーヒーミルですね、素晴らしい仕上がりです。
貴殿のスキルと仕上がりに乾杯です。
As a coffee enthusiast and someone with a hand grinder, I really wanted to see the grinder burrs restored as it really does matter. Grind size is one of the key elements in brewing consistently good coffee. This is the first restore video that I couldn't bring myself to hit the like button on (I didn't hit the dislike either because the rest of the work and this channel is still amazing)
Totally agree that was bugging me massively, what is the point of making it pretty if it doesn't bloody well work, further more grinding the burrs was the technical part I was looking forward too. Pointless, skillfull but pointless.
i loved how you taped up your wrenches at the end to avoid any contact with the paint. amazing attention to detail!
European craftsmanship
The love in his work 360°
Better than most other "restoration" videos out there. He's the real deal.
Just one:
Not only do we get shown what is possible, I also get shown how various tools work!
THX for that!
Thank you very much, I really do appreciate it :-)
I want extended videos with the full sandblasting footage. So satisfying. Lol
Totally fascinating and relaxing to watch from start to finish....This mans skill with the machinery and tools for metal restoration knows no bounds..another quality video!!....
Love that you pixelated the sandblaster switch. Another beautiful restoration.
Чувак у тебя светлый ум и золотые руки !!!
Great respect to those hands of gold.
Many thanks :-)
I cackled at the blurred out sand blaster switch 😂
I didn't get that part. Care to explain?
Kevin Xavier the switch is broken. I think people called it out so many times that he blurred it out
@@outspaN1981 Thanks
it gave me a good chuckle
@@outspaN1981 its just that tiny stupid plastic bit. Hardly makes it broken.
The transformation of the brass hopper cone was almost heartbreakingly beautiful.
Except, I would prefer that he brazed it instead of soldering.
there's nothing beautiful from a heartbreak so it's rather you use "wholeheartedly beautiful"
simply Hamy Sometimes beauty is heartbreaking, that’s a good thing.
I love how his tools are always clean and shining
Thanks, I'm glad you like it :-)
@@mymechanics your most welcome sir.
Pour moi, tu es l'un des meilleurs réparateurs que je suis sur UA-cam
Why did you pixelate the on/off switch for the sand blaster?
I think because it's broken and so many people commented on it, some mock-horrified. I guess it's a joke, that teh one broken and nonshiny thing in his shop is censored. :)
that's what you took away from this video?
Because it's a naughty green switch
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
This honestly bothered me so much more than it should have. But it seems like it's a joke
YoadrianYolara it is not no
Man, you're not normal! You make a masterpiece from the trash! Respect
Thank you very much :-)
this was the first video of yours that I watched, still coming back for more!
I never cared for mechanics, but I watch your videos and can't stop)
Beautiful work as always, I really like the attention to detail on the entire handle section.
There's nothing better than a really good restoration, and coffee. :D
La mejor reparación de todos los videos de UA-cam
3:45 - So, the sand blaster ON switch is in the witness protection program... XD
MrStarTraveler I want to know why was like that NOW
@@MrStarTraveler Next projekt: Restoration of sand blaster.
Oh good, so i wasn't the only one to find this very confusing.
@@ScorpiusZA. Yeah.
I read the comments further down, anb it seems that a lot of people were commenting/picking at him about the worn off cover so he decided to hide it.
I came to see if anyone else was mentioning this! Why?? I don’t know if it was just to be funny. But this doesn’t seem like a silly kind of channel.
I love the respect you show every single little piece of the machines you restore.
You sir are nothing short of a magician !
So many of the ld time everyday items were true works of art. Absolutely beautiful!
The parts where he made his own screws, nuts, washers and rivets on the lathe satisfied me on so many levels.
