It's nice that you added the info about cost and time at the end. People, myself included, often underestimate the effort that goes into these restaurations. Great work!
I was the one who suggested this a couple videos back and you replied saying you'd try it out and I'm happy to see it! Honestly the materials cost all in was less than I expected. And it makes me appreciate your content even more knowing it took 3 weeks for us to enjoy 15 minutes of viewing. Thanks for another fun project, excited as always to see what's on your table next!
I saw your poll early today, don't forget there are about 91K of us who think this content is great. Don't be discouraged, this was a great item and interesting video, particularly the electronics. Great stuff!
You see the thumbnail for these videos pop up and you don't think it's worth much to watch it... and then you watch it.. and you can't stop... and the zen overwhelms you.. and it's awesome. :)
What a great restoration you are very talented and you amazed me with all the electrical elements you had tou sort out and the pieces you made . Well done
Thank you for doing what YOU like to do. If you do what you're passionate about, we will follow. Don't ever do things just because others tell you to do them.
This was a great restoration. The only thing that I would suggest doing differently is to make a recess for the fuse and speed switch so that this could sit or hang flat against a wall. Also that is a very sweet little spot welder you have. Now to print yourself some non conductive tongs to hold the piece you are welding.
Wow, nice job! Thanks also for posting the cost/time at the end. I like the way you put a video together, showing us enough but not every. single. rivet. Perfectly edited.
Nice vid and a perfect restoration. BUT... The green-yellow ground connection is a very bad joke. Soldering on paint can't work and soldering on steel is difficult. Just crimp an connector on the cable an fix it with a screw. 😊 Greetings
I want more videos please!!!! I have watched them all and there are not a lot of them. Please please please! You’re my favorite of all the restoration videos and you are so talented, and can make almost ANYTHING from scratch! Instead of other people who buy all the new parts…
my favorite channel about restoration. always amazing results. the main thing is often interesting and extraordinary things to restore. thanks for your work
You did a very good job! Regarding such a thing is quite easy to rebuild exactly this way, i have to say i value the patina over the finished look this time.
I am surprised by how much it cost only because the restoration project looked so good I thought man this must sell for a lot so it's probably expensive to restore and I wasn't far off I guessed 300 bucks to restore maybe it's like a 500 dollar or more sign 🙂 very beautiful end result though, I am like I would love one of these but I am sure it's far out of my budget ha ha it's stunning :) I am working on building a solarium for my mom and my niece who love to garden and was thinking of making a cafe and all that and this sign would just be so cool to use.
It's nice that you upgraded some components especially the built in electronics and bulbs with latest LED technology. I am interested to watch restoration videos, not only restoring the item but upgrading too to the current technology. Furthermore I also enjoyed watching recreating lost or damaged parts. I'm glad you included the 3D printing sessions in your video. Great job! Do the same thing to your future videos.
Thoughtful and innovative melding of old and new technologies, and original and repro parts. Better than when new, and the heart of the old is still there. sometimes it's neat to lave a patch with original paint and patina.
12:05 Dont tin the wire and then crimp it. You get better and longer lasting connection without the soldering tin. The tinning just makes it more brittle and likely to break.
OTND AND KILO RESTORATION. The only 2 restoration channels I trust on RU-vid... Kilo last uploaded 2 years ago,I don't know where he could be... OTND don't dissappear on us also 😢
at my work, we make and have circuit boards, so we have to make sure we wear ESD smocks and shoes/straps so we reduce the chances of static discharge.. then you got this guy, putting a circuit board together ON STYROFOAM, one of the most static-y things around😢
You have the patience of a saint and his was clearly a passion project - great attention to detail, well done! Love the editing! (I’m waiting for the “T” , “N” and the “D”) 😊
