In this video I restored a friction ratchet made in 1933 by 'Gedore'.
D.R.P. was the german patent until 1945.
The number 583635 indicates that it was made in 1933.
As you can see in the video this is not a regular ratchet. It is a friction ratchet, which can be used for the same jobs like gear wrenches or pass through ratchets. You can also use it with regular sockets as shown in the video. Also because it has no tooth there is no danger to snap them under high torque, so it can stand much higher loads than a regular ratchet could. That is the main advantage over regular ratchets.
There are different inserts with different sizes which are still available for purchase.
The work on the project took about 25 hours (inclusive filming) plus about 10 hours of editing.
I hope you will have some fun watching the video! If you have any further questions on the process, tools, material, cold bluing or else write a comment, I will try my best to answer your questions.
I hope you liked the video! Thank you for watching and feel free to leave a comment and subscribe if you liked :)
