I found this OLD Wright Screw Hoist just sitting on the ground at an abandoned farm. It looked AWESOME & was begging me to take it back to the shop, so I took a chance on it! It was all seized up, and I wasn't sure if it was broken or not, but figured I could bring it back to life either way!!!
A screw hoist is a type of chain fall, and is used to lift or lower heavy things vertically up or down as the need arises!
I'm glad I took the chance on this Wright Model 45, because it turned out to be a VERY nice hoist! It's rated to lift up to 2 Tons or 4000 lbs!
I'm excited to put it back to work here at Salvage Workshop! I've got plenty of heavy things that need moving, so expect to see it in MANY future videos as time goes on!
Watch as I fully disassemble it, completely clean it, give is a BEAUTIFUL paint job, put it back together, and then put it to the test on one of my new Anvils!
I really have NO idea how old it it, but now it's ready for another 100 years of work! (or however old it is)
I truly appreciate that you've taken the time to watch as I bring this Old Wright Screw Hoist back into usable condition here at Salvage Workshop!!

The best part of this video is it still works and very functional

@thomasklugh4345 3 года назад

That moment... It's almost open, it's almost open, almost... it's opening, it's, it's, it's a giant gear! And just look at the size of that hook! Ladies and gentlemen! And the crowd goes wild (or, at least I did)! Man, I love this stuff!

Dismantling this and fixing it again is a great task, not easy to do this..good job brother

@twinprimeable 4 года назад

to move heavy things I usually take a vertebrae or two and put them in a vice to pre-break them so I don't get injured during the actual lifting

Beautiful restoration. Suggestion... Build your gantry in your shop and have it extend eight feet outside of the shop doors. Then you can lift your ''projects'' out of the vehicle and into your work area without any strain. Really like what you do. More please.

@shedmanx3640 4 года назад

One thing I’ve learned in my 60+ years on this planet is that you can always trust someone that are loved by animals and respect someone who is talented. You have my trust and respect. You are a craftsman mate. That “block and tackle” as we call it in Australia looks better than new. You have the same love for old tools as I do. Thanks for bringing that to us. 🇦🇺👍

@SalvageWorkshop 4 года назад

I truly appreciate that my friend! I've never really considered myself a craftsman, but I appreciate the compliment! Lots more to come!

@RetiredRhetoricalWarhorse 3 года назад

Why would you respect someone who is talented? Talent implies that a skill came to them easily. What's there to respect? Now if someone worked hard to acquire that skill, on the other hand...

@CorkyMcButterpants 3 года назад

@@RetiredRhetoricalWarhorse You seem to be picking some kind of grammatical fight where there is none. *Shed Man* was simply complimenting him on his well placed application of said talent/abilities.

@bazz4697 Год назад

Wow absolutely fantastic restore job on the hoist 😁👍

@markharrisllb 3 года назад

Does it not blow your mind that this things were first made in possibly the 19th century and some parts haven’t been since then? The hours upon hours they were used as a major part of an industry that would be unrecognisable today. I know you always respect the history and craftsmen that used the tools you restore, it must be a real privilege at times. Due to my disabilities I can’t lift anything heavy at all and can only do small projects. That doesn’t stop me enjoying watching what you do. My late father used to say you can learn a lot about how a man treats his animals, you always make a point of giving attention to the quieter one at the back.

Wow, I was surprised that gear was solid brass, so many nice metals in and on there. I have to say that your colors are always spot on and how you mix metal with paint, beautiful, better than new. It is always so interesting seeing how well the projects were manufactured and can be restored to original or better. Again, perfect job Matt, thanks for all the hard work, much appreciated!!! Nena

@murpup 4 года назад

Great job. Always in amazement how you are able to keep track of all the parts and how everything goes back together

@snoroof58 3 года назад

Your restorations belong in museums in my opinion. Something for future generations to draw upon when the time comes where they need to re-learn what we have forgotten through ignorance. Wonderful job and I agree that these old things have a beauty that can't be described, they must be seen working in their original states. Outstanding work!

@leslieb.1907 4 года назад

My favorite restore so far! Nicely Done!

@daveb7999 Год назад

Thanks for bringing us along as you restore this well-made piece of history. Now it's a useful shop tool once again, and a work of art that will likely outlive us all before its next, 'thoughtful restoration'. 👍

@space-pop3527 4 года назад

I have started to develop a workshop (small) but am restoring my dads tools which I allowed to get wet and rusty since he passed. I think he would appreciate what I am doing and I know I enjoy it. Thanks for the inspiration and knowledge.

@SalvageWorkshop 4 года назад

That is awesome! There's NEVER a bad place to start! If you're having fun, just keep at it! Don't ever tell yourself you "can't" do, fix, or build anything, just give it a shot and go from there! Plus the internet is an amazing research tool these day!

@seaknightvirchow8131 3 года назад

Sad to be reminded of how much manufacturing we lost to other countries. I really enjoy seeing these ordinary tools come back to life.

@geofflewis4815 3 года назад

I totally agree G. Benson, it the same in the UK, the amount of factories, engineering workshops that have been sent abroad, Far East, India, China. Well know products are now imported back to us at well below the quality that we once made ourselves. eg, British Record ( tools of all types ) are now made abroad, and not a patch on the originals.

@andrewhallett-patterson9778 4 года назад

I'm lucky that the property I purchased a decade ago came with a huge industrial workshop, enough space to operate a 5 ton forklift with extendable crane attachment, huge front and rear covered concrete lay down pads, and a 15 ton overhead remote control gantry that not only services the workshops internal dimensions but extends to service both external lay down pads. All I've added is dual service pits with LED lighting and air connections, and dual 15 ton industrial vehicle hoists. The biggest costs were the previous owners. A gantry in any workshop is a huge asset. 👍👍🇦🇺

@user-sl3il5sz2s 4 года назад

For small parts and chains, it is certainly better to use a rust remover, but it is rational to clean the case and large parts with electrolysis, this is not a complicated technology. After rust removal, it is useful to treat with a phosphating compound to create a protective coating against corrosion. This thing is a magnificent legacy of the industrial era. And you perfectly restored it. My respect.

Impact wrenches work much better without an extension - Very nice old chain hoist -

@SalvageWorkshop 4 года назад

Very true! I use the extension to keep the impact from constantly blocking camera angles when I'm videoing these projects! I have a much larger impact for when I really need to break something loose!

@mrgoodtimes05 4 года назад

@@SalvageWorkshop are you sure about the reason for use of the extension? To keep from blocking camera angle? Theres plenty of other things that block it. 3 seconds with no extension and its broke loose. And you said theres a bigger impact WOW you'll probably use an extension on it too. Not having the knowledge about something isn't the end of the world. JS

@stanisawk1385 3 года назад

Old Tools Restoration is Super! Remember, however, that when we still use them after restoration, they are still years old. This means that many parts show signs of mechanical wear as well as invisible wear, at the level of the internal structure of the metal, there are or may be microcracks that may migrate over time and cause the material to break or crack. So a refurbished device doesn't mean it's brand new, but it has worn parts. But as a rule, such tools will last a long time, because they were made at a time when solid work was needed.

@ggsmith099 4 года назад

I had, years ago, a gantry sort up that relied on a track system that could go from outdoors to in along an overhead track, I even had a switch point to steer the hoist to either work area or storage area both ends then met to a swing arm hoist. It was hugely complex but so handy for moving engines and whatnot about
