Hello and Welcome to my channel.
I enjoy restoring, fixing up and creating different types of things. Will mostly do small projects until I get a bigger work area then I'll start doing bigger projects like motorcycles or maybe even vehicles.
I'm by no means a professional just doing it because I enjoy it.
Thank you for viewing my channel and hope you enjoy the content

Ducati 2 Stroke Restoration Part 2 - FixNation
Good day
This is part 2 of restoring my 2 stroke Ducati water pump, the original fuel tank was unfortunately too far gone from standing in the sun so had to replace it with a different tank.
I'm by no means a professional, just someone that loves working on and fixing things and if you have any suggestions, tips or questions feel free to comment on the video and ill try my best to get back to you.
I got a entry level camera to record on so still getting used to it, seems like a small upgrade over the mobile phone I used before.
Thank you for taking time to watch my videos and the support.

Bullet Vise no5 near perfect restoration - FixNation
มุมมอง 14Kปีที่แล้ว

I'm going to try and reuse as much of the original parts and hardware as possible, only had to replace the jaw fasteners because they were too rusted and damaged. Did a lot of nickel plating today to prevent rust on some parts and to leave a smooth finish. I'm by no means a professional, just someone...
Old Rusty Machete Restoration (Rust Blue) - FixNation
มุมมอง 16Kปีที่แล้ว
Good day Today we are restoring and modifying a old rusty Machete, the original plan was to do a perfect restoration polishing the blade to a mirror finish but found the rust marks are too deep and I will have to grind it thin to clean up the blade so I rather went with rust bluing. Found a crack on the edge of the blade so I had to cut of the tip. Handle was made from Kiaat and Seringa wood to...

Nice! Looks good!
Thanks!
Well executed
Thank you
Yeah these lathes always needs some TLC when they come from the factory. Looks like you got one with a bit of QC, lucky you
They do, got mine second hand and is quite an old model maybe they did better QC back then.
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice project
Thanks for the sub! Appreciate it
Nice Job
Thanks!
So satisfying seeing how clear it comes out.
It really is!
Love the wooden handle
Thank you I appreciate it!
@Fix-Nation this is the machete that used by drug cartels if they decapitated or butchered people I see it on internet.
Nice work done.
Thanks!
Like the color, Neatly done.
Thank you!
Nice wok to make a nicely sized family Stir-Fry in it.
It sure is!
"Urgently stopping switch", LOL

Didn't show the sandblasting. Did you clean the wheel or is it a new one?
Still have to sort out filming while sandblasting, yes did sandblast the stone and dressed it to be smooth again.
Nicely restored💯
Thank you 👍

Excellent job, it now looks better than a new one ❤ Unscrewing the jaws for them is always such a struggle
Thank you, true it's always a struggle I got lucky with this one a lot of times they want to break off.
Super jest ten cały nóż odrestaurowany pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you
Beautiful restoration 😍😍
Thank you very much!
Excellent restoration of a high quality vise. Thanks
Thank you
Przepiękne jest to odrestaurowane to bardzo stare imadło ale czeba było mu zrobić elektrolize lub piaskowanie było by owiele lepiej pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍
Thank you for watching and your comment, all the painted parts were sandblasted before painting and most of the other parts also.
God job bro👏👍👍👍👍👍🇲🇨
Thank you for watching
Nicely Done on the restoration!
Thank you
Lindo, Sinceramente es mas pequeño de lo que imaginé pero no esta nada mal
Thank you for the positive feedback, yes it was unfortunate I had to cut the tip off because of the crack in the blade. But it's getting used as a large kitchen knife now
Danke für das Video👍
Thank you for taking time to watch, appreciate it.
You did the wrong thing. Why did you cut the knife? You should have just repaired it
Good day, would have preferred to fix it but don't want to weld on the edge of the blade and potentially create a weak spot. If the blade had a lot of value to it I would have considered it.
That is quite small for being a machete, looks more like a big knife but anyway great restoration
True I wasn't sure because it was quite large for a knife but on the smaller side for a machete, but after I had to cut it shorter because of the crack in the blade it's definitely a knife now. Thank you
Muito bom trabalho continua assim !
Thank you !!

Beautiful handle
Thank you
Great work as always.
I appreciate that, thank you!
Very good! You've got quite pretty butcher knife.
Thank you I appreciate it.
Было нормальное мачете. Нужно было только заточить, а не делать из него какую то залупу
Thank you for the feedback, I had to shorten it because of the crack I found after removing the rust as shown in the video at 2:05 Original plan was to restore it as a machete
Great job! Well done
Thanks a lot!
