@@ivanstiles7030 I scored on this set. It was missing the 7/16”. Well, it’s still missing that one. Haha. I can’t find that thing anywhere. The last one I seen was on eBay but dang, he wanted more than I’m willing to pay. If I find another set, I’ll let you know 1st
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 😅I haven’t been able to find Pepsodent at the Dollar stores since we moved to Tennessee 5 years ago. It was my favorite flavor.
So close………..the rest is incredible 👍👏 I’m gona have to be on the lookout for some of those! ……I got another 3/4” Craftsman Ratchet and extension and 4 nice sockets. Also a “Mystery Box”…….will pick up Friday afternoon…….a couple other treasures also. I hope the Mystery Box has something special……..it’s a 30’s-50’s box…….hope it’s not junk and something to add to the collection. You will be the first to know. Oh, this set also had no 3/4” breaker bar……..but that is ok, I got one now 👏🇺🇸🫡 Can you list the one you need……or send me a pic so I can be looking 👍
@@Living-The-Dream I can’t wait to see what’s in the mystery box. Should be some good stuff if it’s that old. The one I need is just a Plvmb 7/16” This one is weird. It’s a Pebble Period but with both Plvmb & Proto on it. I know these were made from 1944-48 so…. Why is Proto on it, that is the question. Time for some research.
There's a video here explaining what it is (two stage hand air pump) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mSfQesPfToA.htmlsi=lpv3D68qLKhu9hWi&t=22

@@ivanstiles7030 She did clean up pretty well. I like how the end of this video came out. Where the light reflects off the shiny Craftsman logo. Thanks Ivan. More to come soon. I hope 🤞🏼

@@Living-The-Dream Thank You Sir. It’s weird not doing anything. Everyday was so long and boring. Now I can gather myself then find something to do. Hopefully I’ll find some more cool stuff to clean-up. I need to fix my lighting. This one was kind of dark so my focus wasn’t all that great. Back to the drawing board to see what I can come up with.

It’s so nice now, I’ll be back with a vengeance now😎 No more worrying Andy. I’m making something now but not sure if the Fellas will like it… I’ll post it anyway in a few days
@@SendophomPhomsendo I can’t sell this one. I gave it to my Granddaughter. She’s loves it so much because She loves using it. I might buy Her a new one when She turns 5. I think She’s getting ready for a 410 shotgun.
@@Smallyardguy You’ll be happy once you’re done. It’s amazing how well these old ones cut. It’s actually fun the cut the grass. Have fun. Let me know if you get stuck on anything.
I have a couple of these. One I took apart. Man, it seems like a million screws... I'm glad you filmed the disassembly so I can see how to put mine back together. LOL
@@theantiquefanatic Yeah it’s crazy. I still have about 10-15 more screws to take off. It’s cool though because they’re all the same screws. There’ll be no mixup when assembling. Hopefully I’ll have it all back together soon. How do these ones perform?? I’m hoping to use Her on the living room floor.
@@eddiesolt9127 Yeah I know but it was for some dude at work. His Mom asked if I could fix it for Her. Sentimental Value. I couldn’t say no. Sometimes I have to do the right thing. Everyone is happy now.
@@ivanstiles7030 Me too. I can’t believe how hard that was. Someone must’ve cranked down really hard on this one. It wasn’t that rusty/dirty. Oh well….. now we can move forward. Thanks Ivan. Stayed Tuned
She is coming along ! Glad to see you get that skinny nut off……knew you would 👍 What flavor are we going this time??? I feel a 50 Old’s. Two tone coming on……..👍👏🇺🇸
Aww come on First Sergeant. You know I can’t reveal the color scheme. I’m not sure if I could pull off a Red & Black combo on this one. There’s to much going on with all the parts. I’m more focused on getting all the next parts straight again. This thing looks like it was in a tornado. I hope I can get Her to work again. She’s a mess. Stay Tuned 🤞🏼
I’m really liking this fan !! What a cool concept 👍 My Old eyes can’t see that fitting very well, is there I very thin nut on the threads? If those old bills could talk……geeezzzz what an awesome find ! The Spider was the golden touch 👏 I see a number of hours going into this one…….I bet it’s going to be amazing 🦅🇺🇸
@@Living-The-Dream Yes Sir. It’s a very thin nut. I can get a grip on it with the tools I have. I’ve taken these things off with ease in the past. This one is putting up a hell of a fight. I don’t want to ruin that plate anymore than I already have. I wonder if there’s an actual tool for that thing. What do you know about “Victory” bills? Did it have anything to do with the War?? I’m dead in the water until I get that nut off. I don’t want to mask all that crap off. I want to do it right.
@@Living-The-Dream That’s pretty cool. Hopefully I can track down the folks on the envelope. If not, everything will go back to where it was. Thanks First Sergeant.
That's a cool old fan and the stash under the top has a story to tell. I would try a pair of duckbill pliers on the nut to remove it. Can't wait to see it finished
@@ivanstiles7030 duckbill??? Dang it, now I have to research what those are then find some. Hahaha. I tried 4 different pliers but there’s not enough meat on that darn nut to get a grip. That’s the only thing holding me back now. I need to get it off so I can start prepping for paint. I’ll keep at it but I don’t want to ruin that on/off plate anymore. I put some nice scratches on it already. I would love to find out who that envelope belongs to but I’m not going to be in the Philippines anytime soon. Hahaha. What a trip huh???
That's a neat little piece there, I like these old Hassock fans. As for the nut on the switch removal, I just use a pair of pliers which works well enough. Can't wait to see the outcome of this one. By the way I would like to see a restoration of a 4 blade Wizard box fan like I have , I've reached out in the fan groups and could never find a video of this fan on RU-vid.
@@stevethefanman8955 Yeah… this one is cool. I’ve never seen one where the fan is movable. I have 4 now and they all just point up. I can’t wait to see if I can get this filthy Ol Gal working again. The only box fan I’ve ever done was that old Kenmore. I’ll keep my eyes open for an old wizard. Box fans don’t pop up around here at all. I love those things. So powerful and quiet.
@@travisbrueck9076 I’ve looked everywhere. I can’t find anything. I would love to have balloon tires because these solid ones are so old & weak. I huge piece just fell off the other day.

@@whoop9527 Well I’m glad you stopped by. My buddy from work brought this in and asked if I could fix it for his Mom. It’s kind of to new for what I do but I took it anyway.

@@Living-The-Dream Yeah… that was nerve racking. I’ve done this through the years but I don’t remember ever having to spread those legs open that much. I’m so glad it didn’t snap in half. Looks like you got a bunch of supplies coming… what are in those auctions?? Fans or tube radio???
@@lionstamp I use Howard’s Feed-N-Wax. That’s stuff is great. I run it in really well then let it set for 20-30 minutes. Then grab a new microfiber cloth to polish it to a shiny finish. Works beautifully and leaves a nice smell. It’s my go to on all my wood parts when I don’t have time for Tru Oil. Now that stuff is the best of the best. It just takes a long time. 1 coat = 1 day and I always put 10 coats on. It’s amazing though
I just hope the name had a different definition 100 years ago. Hahaha. I can’t believe She fired right up. With just about 50-60 volts. I wonder how much this thing cost back then because She looks well taken care of.
@@Living-The-Dream Ok therapeutic…. Got it. When I 1st seen it, I thought “uh ohhhh, what’s this”? Hahaha. It’s so cool to think these things were made way back when. I had no clue. Now I’m on a mission to find the strangest things for the 1920’s. That should make a good series for the channel. Let me know if you see anything that you never knew existed. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@Living-The-Dream I’m broadening my horizons now. I only liked the 1930’s-50’s because I didn’t know there was technology like that in the 20’s. This changes everything. I thought the 1920’s was just dirt roads, candles & horse and buggies. I have lots of research to do tonight. Let’s see what I can find.
@@victorotto-y3h I wonder if anyone back then would’ve thought we’d be talking about this hair dryer 100 years later. What a beautiful example of American History 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@Living-The-Dream Crazy…… I couldn’t believe it. When I was turning up the voltage on the variac, I could hear something but didn’t think it was the hairdryer. I’m looking around my workbench trying to find the noise. Hahaha. Do you need a hairdryer First Sergeant? You can get that pompadour look’n good. I find these things at our local swap meet or garage sales. The older the house, the older the stuff. I got something else just as old but the name of it is kind of risqué. It’s a massage gun with a strange name. I’m not sure if I should make a video on it
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 I was going to tell you, even if it didn’t work, it would dry the hair on my bald head LMAO 🤣 Go for it ! Put it to video and share with the world😎 👍👏🇺🇸
@@victorotto-y3h Aye Aye Sir. She’ll be displayed proudly in the old shop. We might not know what She is but we do know She’s 100+ years old and that’s good enough for me. Set zebra on that hatch under your nose
@@ivanstiles7030 Thanks Ivan. Yeah, She’ll just be a wall hanger. I would love to know what to say if anyone asks me “what is that”? Hahaha. I have absolutely no clue. What a weird contraption.
@@ivanstiles7030 I used my old air compressor to pump up the tire and just for kicks, I hooked up the pump. It literally sucked all the air out on the up & down strokes. Hahaha. Unless I put something on backwards, this thing doesn’t pump air, it extracts air. It’s weird
We’re the gaskets still intact when you removed the rods. Most old pumps I’ve taken apart have stiff leather CUPS that are pointed downward to act like a parachute and push the air out. I saw someone use a hole that matched the desired diameter and press WET leather through it and let it dry out so it would stay “cup” shaped.
@@JamesBond-yj5lo The leather seals were long gone. Each rod has 3 washers & a nut. I made 2 new leather seals but something is wrong. I really do t think this is an air pump. I think it’s meant to suck air/liquid because it sucks on both the up & down strokes. It’s weird.
@@Living-The-Dream Hahaha. Yeah….. She does look good. I like what I did with the base. I just followed the natural lines. Looks like it was supposed to be that way huh?? This was fun but the research was horrible. There’s nothing out there on the interwebs. I researched for dang near 3 days. Absolutely nothing about it. Oh well, it’s over with now. I’ll do that 50’s pump off camera. I need a pump ya know.
Looks like the grill was originally chrome on this fan……After painstakingly getting all the rust off it and exposing the chrome, why did you paint over it?
It was originally white. I found some cool old ads for this fan online. I like to keep all me restorations as close to original as possible. I wish it was originally chrome. that would've saved me so much time and effort. It's ok thought, I don't mind. I really enjoy bringing these old things back into working order. Thanks Mr. Scottie
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 you did a great job! I guess Westinghouse changed color schemes and designs over the years; somehow I remember seeing a Mobilaire with chrome grilles and just thought they were all that way.
@@MrScottie68 If you look at the disassembly video for this fan, you can see the white paint. If I find another one, I’ll strip all down then leave the grill chrome. I bet it’ll look cool. Dang it… now I have to find another one 😎
@@moblu It’s such a simple but intricate design. I love how everything works together. Everything has to be in sync or it won’t work. You’re right, built to last forever. 90 years old now and still spinning. Thanks for watching & commenting.
At first i couldnt understand,why 2 cylinders..SIMPLE more air being forced into small cylinder and more pressure, for one thing, and more efficient I see it in my mind.Having a hard time puttiing it into words. Can some one explain why two cylinders SIMPLY THANKS GREAT VIDEO
@@victorotto-y3h I still don’t understand. If both plungers are going down at the same time, where would the compressed air go?? The outlet for the hose is on top. Someone has to know how this old pump works.
I’ve never seen a double tube like that……. Amazing you got it all apart with the rust. This is going to really Pop when it’s done. The Old Tools, make it all come together ! 🚲🔧👍👏🇺🇸
@@Living-The-Dream Me either. I’m still trying to figure out what the 2nd chamber does. If both plungers are going down, how does the air go up to the hose?? It doesn’t make sense. This 100 year old technology has me scratching my coconut. Haha. Do you have any ideas First Sergeant?? I need to make a leather seal for the plunger, so I need to know if there was 1 in each chamber. Time for some research.
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 I have no idea……I know the single plungers also used to have a circle of what looked like a woven pad that looked like a cleaning pad, I assume that cleaned the inner walls of the tube as it traveled the tube length with each stroke……but I know nothing about the way they operate. As you said, you would thing one tube would be drawing air in on the up stroke and push out on the downstroke……?????? Hmmmmmmmm🧐🇺🇸
@@Living-The-Dream Yeah. The other pumps I’ve done used round leather seals that would slide up and down the cylinder which created compressed air that would be shoved out of the hose to fill the tire. Now with 2 cylinders, I’m not understanding where the compressed air goes on the down stroke. I’m goof’n around with it now. Hopefully I can figure it out soon. I need to put air in my tire so I can go cruising around the neighborhood. I’ll be back soon. Hopefully 🤞🏼
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 yeah they’re neat plus you can see that’s part of what influenced the old Craftsman raised panel ratchets. Not to mention, they still make that basic design, but with a knurled handle, even now. Lol
@@gtcam723 Yup. I like to see how different companies tried to copy each other slightly so they wouldn’t get sued. I love the old ones. You can see how tools evolved over the years. I have a few 1920’s socket sets that are so primitive. But I guess that’s all they had so it was good enough. I can’t imagine trying to break a rusty bolt loose with a those weird 20’s sockets. Looks like the socket would twist before the bolt. I should try it huh?? Hahaha. Just to see what’ll happen.
@@spiderlovesbeerohyeah4760 it’s interesting also to me as various innovations occurred between them and now, like Snap On with Flank Drive that virtually everyone now has a version of. Or how Klein started out doing tool repair but his repairs were better than the original tool.
@@gtcam723 Oh wow. I didn’t know that. I guess it’s like a classic car. You can slap in some new technology and make that classic way better than original.
@@ivanstiles7030 Someone commented on here if everything was interchangeable on the 5649….. Ask and you shall receive. Hahaha. I love the simple videos.
Awesome restoration! There's a lot going on inside those old fans. I noticed at 0:53 the shaft wobbles inside the motor housing itself. Is there some sort of nut or fastener on the other side that may be loose?
Thanks Elijah. I don’t think so. The stator is in the housing so tight that there wouldn’t be any room for a nut or bolt. I can’t figure this thing out. It sucks because this is such a nice old fan. I want to use Her in the living room but I don’t want to ruin anything by running Her. To much wobble. I’m trying to find another one so I can see what’s wrong. Apparently these are collectible so I haven’t found one yet. Hopefully I can figure it out someday 🤞🏼
