Rusty FOOT WARMER FROM THE DARK AGES FULL RESTORE
This foot warma is made by Hecla Australia, its from the 1920s lets see if i can make it work again, and give it a nice clean up, let me know what you think :)
Ornately patterned square cast-iron electric foot warmer, made in about 1927 by Hecla Electrics Pty Ltd and sold under the model name 'Foot Warma'. The foot warmer was made from the late 1920s until the 1950s and did not change substantially in design during this time. A postcard advertising the 'Foot Warma' accompanies this particular foot warmer.
The Hecla brand name and logo was registered in 1918 by Clarence Marriott. It was inspired by the recent eruption of Iceland's volcano Mt Heckla. Clarence and his father James were metal workers who had made Australia's first carbon filament electric radiators in 1899, and also built an early steam car.

I was given this lamp many years ago from my grandfather, way back in the 1980s, I thought it was time to restore it to its glory, it has a tri color light system, for signaling trains, it uses a 6volt battery to luminate the light, so yes its electric, it was used by NSW TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT, from the 1950s to the 1970s. I really hope you enjoy my video :) Any feedback is very welcome.

I found this old lamp at a garage sale for $1 the lamp itself was in very good condition, made some time around 1940 by Colton, Palmer & Preston Ltd ( Australia ) I will try my best to restore it, the green color paint isn't original, but I like it, some metal parts have been Nickle coated. Hope you like my work, please let me know what you want to see next :)

Wow! The logic part seems to be very archaic.
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!! I need that as cold as my feet get even in the summer time I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you very much :)
really good job
New follower, a tip for subtitle is, textamig, think it can help you grow on youtube, im from Sweden
🤨 ~ if it has a thermostat, the electrical connections, elements are properly insulated and the metal parts are earthed = then it is quite safe - in comparison to your “click-bated” title 😠
one has to get views and grow, otherwise whats the point of filming.
Swesome! You can probably put a clixon or something like that (or a reostate) in serie after the old thermostate if You want to adjust the temperature.
Imagine what a dead short would do to someone.
yes deadly haha, actually its very scary lol
Something does'nt matter 😂

when you wash electronic things,DON'T USE WATER!!!!!!! USE ALCOHOL!!!!! because with WATER,the electronics won't work. 🤬
actually its fine, i have done the same process for many years.
@@vintagematter beato te. (lucky you)
I was a DEC field service engineer
wow really
@@vintagematter yup. 1979 - 1992
1982 i was using the TRS80 at school.
Good job cleaning up that chassis! Looking sweet. That Celeron processor is *slow* you can easily get a much faster P4 CPU on ebay. Also, another thing about that era PC is it's right in the prime of the Capacitor plague. I wouldn't trust it until I went in and tested all of them. There are places you can find lists of the brands effected by it at the time, but it's pretty far reaching. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague
One assumes that the original would have glowed red. Down to the high resistant wire details?
Microprocessor Zilog Z80?
How did all that "Vintage Matter" get inside the computer? What even is it?
You're washing the motherboard in water
Just saw this video, man I've always wanted one of these, had an old 286 like it but never found a 386 or higher. If you want to part with it let me know.
already been passed on, but will keep my eyes open for another
@@vintagematter thanks.
what panel should be placed above the back panel? i just found out that old tower cases provided this 7:57. i am surprised that the pcie panel is made that high, apparently there is space above the back panel for it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Que haces querido amigo delegado. Mira donde te veo comentar.
I really enjoy your restoration videos! There are others on TH-cam, but yours always stand out. I seem to learn something new from your approaches each time. Although when it comes to removing rust from PC cases, I’ve never felt right using the store-bought products and have always preferred using the old school sanding (i.e. rotary tools etc).that rust removal product you used seemed to worked well though :)
Yes its very good for small rust
Back in the day we used to refer to these as "dumb terminals".
yeap, i remember seeing so many being dumped :(
Only 3 ram slots...? Never seen that before!
3 ram slots used to be a thing with those older computers. There was no dual channel on most of them yet so all sticks ran in singlechannel anyway. If you would put 3 ram sticks in a modern board today it will work but in singlechannel mode just like these did
Awesome restoration! The Celeron processor made my heart hurt a little bit though. 🤣 A Pentium 3 upgrade would be a nice touch. Great video!
Pentium 3 cpu but where to find
I was going to say the same, i wish this one an older PC and not a Celeron!
You can test your VT if you connect pin 2 and 3 together of the serial connector. If it's possible don't wash electronics boards with water. It's better if you can wash with isopropylic alcool. For a test type all H's to realing the CRT.😊
i used to wash motherboards on the assembly line back in the 90s, with plain tap water and soap.
i wish we could get win 95 back in u.s.a northeast..
Suddenly, a dirty mark appears? It doesn't need to be overstaged, mate.
where? i dont understand?
maybe the heat is poor because you blackened the terminal screws, increasing the resistance to the coil too much
The wire that i used was too thick, i will post a short soon with it working at 200c
Hey Margie, I saw the neighbor giving computer keys massages again! :)
It's insane the amount of jumpers they used on those boards to avoid making double-sided boards.
works but...... mmmmmm...
Beautiful restoration! Which camera you use for video?
Hi there, thank you, SONY ZV1

Nice heater, never seen one before, thanks.
Given all the previous comments about thr heating element and such, I would add that simple on/off switch should be added somewhere in the process. The simplest of course would be at the plug itself or on the back of the cover. Plug-in and heat has always been a safety issue to me. Nice work though. 😅
Tirar parafusos com alicate fica muito improvisado , 😅😅😅😅
Nice resto. I had one of these Hecla heaters and used it every winter from the late 1970s to the mid 1990s. I used to hand polish the reflector with Brasso and it really worked well. We used to call it the Flamethrower! Mine had a different style cast surround in a sort of antique brass finish and didn't look quite as 'tippy' as this one. It was also wired with an earth connection. I think the element burned out and it was replaced by a modern (for the 90s) electric heater. Electricity was so cheap in those days 😊👍
Thanks for your input, much appreciated
👍👏👍👏🥃👍👏🥃👍👏🥚👍👏🥚👍👏🥃👍👏🥃
13:47 I would be more at ease with this device if I had actually seen you connect the PE wire to the housing (and also leave it a bit longer than the others). The last guy who worked on this was certainly careless.
Yeah I'm surprised at what i find sometimes, lose wires, things missing etc
Nice restoration😊👍🏻
Very good! I'm from Americana SP Brasil.
WOW FANSTIC GOOD JOB
Beautiful restoration job you did on the antique floor heater. It looks much better and it works like a charm too, although you had to replace the nichrome heating wire. Excellent work.
Thank you!
Okay, an interesting refurbishing. First, I think you are the first one that has used the stainless steel pins with water and the bright shine to clean the hardware. It does wonders with spend brass cartridges for certain. Secondly, if you want the heater to heat up more, remove a few inches of the nichrome wire and stretch the remaining wire to fit. Less nichrome wire will make the wire get hotter and you cut it shorter a little at a time until you get the glow and heat output you want... Thumbs Up!
Too much resistance in the wire for it to heat up. Need to calculate how much resistance is needed for 240 VAC and maybe 1000 Watts? Should be about 53 Ohms
ok thank you so much
@@GeoffryWK I understand that and seems you do as well. However not so sure the owner would have any idea about resistance and /or current draw and the wattage. He would surely need an ohm meter and understand some basic electronics. Simple cutting a little at a time will work if he doesn't go too much and burn open the nichrome wire from too much current...
☹️ ~ unfortunate that the replacement nichrome wire didn’t glow red-orange, too thick a gauge = doesn’t get hot enough to glow red? For that iconic radiant heater/element appearance. I thought that crack in the ceramic insulator needed to be cemented to repair it
Hi there, thanks for reply, it seems the wire was way to long, i am now investigating, i filled the crack with a concrete filler.
