That french wrench at the bottom is extremely useful. It's basically a portable vise, considering its vintage, that's an heirloom tool for you.

The testing phase at the end was very informative, glad to see the restoration help to improve its performance so well!

@ToadalSimplicity 5 месяцев назад

It's so cool to me that this thing traveled at the speed of time through the decades to your shop. And now your restoration is part of its history.

@RichardT2112 2 года назад

My Grandfather had one of these, and although both he and his toolbox are sadly lost to time, I know he would have appreciated the work and attention to detail in this restoration. A nice thought for New Year’s day: reminding me of those we love who are gone. Cheers and Happy New Year!

@RIS533 2 года назад

I know how much work that actually took, you should be so proud. Bigger and better in 2022. a Fantastic Job

@chriholt 2 года назад

Beautiful job as always! It might be good to have some feet on the bottom to keep it off the ground. I believe the original bottom had some embossed/dimpled feet on it. Happy New Year, and I am looking forward to seeing your projects in 2022!

@fyodorshestakov6462 2 года назад

I have a similar toolbox! It has some rust holes, and missing a piece at the bottom for that reason, but still, i use it most of the times! But now, thanks to you, I'm thinking about giving it a proper restoration. This thing served my family for decades, maybe it's time to give it what it deserves) Thanks for the awesome content you're making!

Had this exact box from grandpa and used for my first job at small engine shop. Full of his tools also. Thanks for the memory.

21:42 Definitely a glitch in the Matrix 🤣 Beautiful work dude, this box came out sooooo good 🔥🥳👍

From the thumbnail i thought this thing was MASSIVE. I was like this looks like the coolest thing I've ever seen.

@carlmcgee1623 2 года назад

Looks good as is. I'm sure all grandfathers and tool enthusiests can appreciate this high dollar work. GREAT JOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@horstszibulski19 2 года назад

Traditionally these were painted hammerite blue, but the army green is nice also! Great job, thx for the vid! :-D

@ChrisLee-UK 2 года назад

Old Man Toolbox! Cheeky bugger haha 🤣. Here's an old man trick, when welding thin stuff like this, have a wet cloth on there other side to prevent over heating the panel. Prevents warping etc😉Nice job as always :D

@Krzys_D 2 года назад

Seen you put the washers on the wrong side but then you fixed it😊 Happy new year!

@markdaugherty6378 2 года назад

Great result, your welding has gotten so much better, I am impressed. I so agree with the addition of some sort of stand-off for the bottom. As always, looking forward to upcoming episodes. Cheers from Dallas, Texas

@DerTeufelImDetail 2 года назад

Did anyone notice with the cut between 32:39 and 32:41 that he only then inserted the washers correctly? "This one seems to work great!" .... LMAO !!! Made my Day!

@Cafferssss 2 года назад

Love cantilever toolboxes. I have two. They're not the best though, but have stood up well!

@SYBEX21 2 года назад

LOL, I mix paint the same way. Nice job on that restoration. It's a thing of beauty.

@R4TeT 2 года назад

Very nice restoration!! I would have installed there plastic or teflon washers to not to scratch the paint.

@davidlewis492 2 года назад

You made an old tool box a thing of beauty well done mate keep it up.

@johne5493 2 года назад

beautiful job, well done. The only thing I would have changed would be to replace the washers with stainless steel ones as they are a wear point and start for rust to appear.

@titofernandezmeirino9832 2 года назад

@Elucidator- 6 месяцев назад

@Restore It: You got to be kidding me: my grandfather's toolbox (still in possession, quite rusted and worn out), over here in the Netherlands is of the very same variety. Looked for a video for toolbox restauration and this was the first click.

@XXCoder 2 года назад

Awesome, only nit is not replacing feet intents on bottom. It's so you can add rubber feet and not have it slide out.

@olegneprav 2 года назад

@SjoerdJongerius 2 года назад

To remove rivets I use a center punch on the rivet as close to the center of the rivet as I can and then drill them out. Works really good.

@LifeLore2024 2 года назад

Great work, really enjoy watching this🙂 , the only thing I would have done differently is to not use adhesive for liners so you can replace them easily anytime you want to 😉

@geobrown9413 2 года назад

A suggestion when mixing paint colours..... use a welding rod to dip into the paints and write down the dips as you go, easily duplicate down the road too. Less chance of wasting paint if you go too far off the mark.

I always fall asleep to these videos, but not because they are boring, the audio mix is perfect and I love the ambient noise. I wake up towards the end of the video and have to rewatch it all over again. What paint are you using?

@fordfan3179 2 года назад

Pretty nice. The box screams for a decent set of period correct tools restored simarlaly.

@whocares0692 2 года назад

@bugorchard 2 года назад

I took metal shop in college and hold a deep respect and fear for welding, so whenever you started up the MIG I had to look away as if the brightness would transcend through the screen and blind me 😂

@Trindal 2 года назад

@arnhemseptember2009 2 года назад

@nitt3rz 2 года назад

A good tip if you need to hammer anything near fresh paint; wrap the hammer/punch in masking tape to reduce the chance of scuffing & scratching.

@benutzer2239 2 года назад

@garymucher4082 2 года назад

That turned out way better than I thought it would. Just hope you never need to match the color. You used so many different colors and amounts, it would be hard to remember that recipe. But the final results is very nice... Thumbs Up!

@ppgedez 2 года назад

As usual with my very limited ability in these sort of things i got to the six/seven minute mark in this one and if it was me doing it i would have picked all the bits up that i’d managed to dismantle and put them into the corner of my garage to be completed at a later date a work in progress. Great job dude. 🙂
