    No way!! That lock is from my family’s business going way back. Corbin Lock and screw out of New Britain, Connecticut. My Grandfather and Great uncle owned the business back in the 20’s I believe. Honored that you’re bringing it back to life. Thanks 👍🏼 I believe the Corbin car (1907) was prior to Corbin lock and screw

    The whole process was fascinating, and painstakingly precise. But the making of a key blew me away! Here I was thinking "so what - you can't use this lock" but this craftsman proved me wrong.

    I’m a 75 year old woman. Love watching your work, takes me back to happy childhood hours watching my dad work on similar projects at his workbenches. He was so patient and didn’t mind explaining the steps to a young girl, in fact I think he enjoyed the company while transforming metal working miracles. You do beautiful work!

    A lovely job & as my late dad used to say, if someone bothered making it, it's worth bothering to restore it.
    Mind you, It'll probably only be good for about another 120 years!
    Joking aside, there's no better feeling in the world than bringing a once useful but item back to life, well done.

    Looking at it before starting,
    you wouldn't think there
    was any chance of restoring !
    But as he said, good job it
    wasn't ferrous !
    1905, did he say ?
    Huge amount of work,
    but how nice to see it
    like new again .😊
    Well done indeed ! 😊
    Who'd think an old lock
    could be uplifting
    like this ! 😊.
    It deserves a picture frame
    as a piece of history !

    Fascinating stuff. My husband's a mechanic and he is meticulous about working on muscle cars, but I simply can't get him interested in this stuff. I always hoped help me rebuild my 1951 Buick's engine with me, but he simply didn't care. If it's not a 1965 Corvette or a GM muscle car, he doesn't want to see it.
    Very cool. Like Techmoan, about working on old stereos, compact radios, etc., it's simply compelling as hell. Probably why YT recommended it to me!

      Lovely bit of restoration work here, but even 'day 1' I don't think this lock was meant for some Fort Knox - type application. As such, in terms of a "non - destructive attack", I can't really picture Lock Picking Lawyer needing to take out his tools for this one, so much as _glaring at it,_ sternly..!

      Given the dreck that passes for music in 90% + of videos, I would agree with you, except that, unfortunately, the sound of rasps, files, etc, and, most of all - sandpaper or glass paper on corroded metal are, to me, a borderline form of torture, right in there with nails down a blackboard! Even the _sensation_ - No, even _thinking_ about the sensation - literally makes me wince! (I can't be the only one, though, surely?!)
      In the unlikely event you ever see me involved in a 'project', I'll be the one saying, "No, trust me, it'll look _waaay_ better with the 'natural' finish..!"

    The lever springs are unlikely to be made from copper as the metal is too soft to store much energy. Copper is used in electronics for springs that are not under a lot of tension but the ones in the lock are more likely to be made from brass or phosphor-bronze.

    • @John-mw3jf
      @John-mw3jf ปีที่แล้ว +4

      berylium copper makes a good spring but I would guess it is too modern an alloy for the original
