Vintage Grease Gun - Perfect Restoration
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ธ.ค. 2021
- So in this video i decided to restore this Sellarc vintage grease gun that I was asked to lightly restore and get back to working condition before I make a start on my new winter restoration project.
As I said above this is only a light restoration so I wont be going full on and re-making parts or trying to get every part as good as it can be it only needs to be presentable. so in order to do that it was a case of stripping it all down to component form, painting the parts that needed painted, plate the stuff that needs plated and or course give everything a super clean before putting it all back together with fresh grease and seals.
Then it was time to unveil the next project... the legendary Honda CR250
Enjoy

Vintage Grease Gun - Perfect Restoration - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Yes I know the thumbnail and title are a bit click baity and I apologize ,but I'm running a little experiment just now, please bear with me ;)
It is amazing in old machines that everything is removable and repairable. Compare that with todays non repairable stuff and throwaway culture. Thanks for the video!!
Да, действительно это правда
When it is manufactured in ways to cut costs down, they are not repairable as easily. Having multiple parts adds to manufacturing processes that are more elaborate & the mindset has shifted to forget about longevity, lets just make sure it lasts a few weeks/months. Who cares when it is years old. It is also the same with how content is consumed, not many want to watch 2 hour movies, prefer 2 mins 20 secs i.e. 140 secs, large screen has given way to small screen etc.. ah the societies we are living in..
Agree old stuff ..Good stuff !
You'll find that this is common when it comes to industrial equipment and high quality stuff. You can usually find parts and replacements for industrial stuff 50 or 75 years later and the standards are usually the same.
You can get stuff around the house that is the same, but it will cost you many times more than the residential grade stuff. For instance, you can buy water faucets and door knobs that the manufacturers still use the same parts from 50 to 75 years ago. But a faucet will cost you $1000 and a door knob from Cal-Royal will cost you $500.
If you look at the industrial quality machines in like a kitchen that prepares food for mass sales, you will find the equipment can easily last 100 years with only minor repairs.
Back some 125 years ago, they invented the machines to make paper clips for the entire USA. It sounds silly for such a small thing, but there are only like 2 manufacturers in the entire USA that make paper clips. They have been using the same machines 24/7 that were invented back 125 years ago. When one of them breaks down, they don't buy a new one, because they basically don't exist. They repair the old ones with replicable parts and then it cranks out another billion paperclips in a year.
100%
A light restoration please!
“At RRC we don’t do light”
😂 Brilliant job as always
Haha its so true, i just get carried away lol
@@RRCRestoration What would you have done differently if it wasn't a lite restoration?
@@blue-nosedherringchoker4875 The only thing left to do was to deal with the shiny stuff. No idea how he would get those marks and pits removed or covered though.
If it was my version of light, the video would have ended at 1:04
@@blue-nosedherringchoker4875 Since he is probably sleeping and dreaming of the 2 stroke project ahead. I'm guessing, re-chromed the pieces. sanded and buffed before plating the other bits, re-faced the gauge, wet sanded the tank for more perfect paint....I hope he comments here. | know I may have ruined your anticipation by sending a notification that I replied to your comment lol...sorry...couldn't help myself.
Customer: “I’d like just a light restore”
RRC: “I’m sorry I’m not familiar with that term, please explain”
hahahaaha
I haven’t seen one of those in 50 years. 🥲 thanks for the memories
I own one of these sellarc grease guns. I find it great for greasing pto shafts on tractors and machinery. Just not good for larger capacity,jobs as they take forever to fill a larger void!
I want one. Nothing like old school tools that have a heart and soul.
The best part of it all is that it actually has a gun holster. Neat.
Am I the only one who goes directly at the end of the video to see next project?😜of course I see the video after that. Really looking forward to see next restoration project .. I love two strokes!
It's the small things that do it. Like when you turn the knob so the letters were vertical. I can control my OCD but it's nice when I don't have to. 😁
Fantastic job as always, really looking forward to the next one. Cheers 🍻👍
Thank you, Glad you enjoyed it :)
I got to admit I skipped to see the reveal, but now I'm going back to watch the rest of it. Looking forward to those future episodes!
That's why you should join patreon😜
Couldn't agree more Nick ;) lol
I hope you enjoy it my friend :)
I heard you say "Light Restoration" and the first thing I thought was "Aye Right". At least it was only dry flatting this time. Brilliant work as usual, looking forward to the CR.
The wobbling can stopped logo out. Nice!
Light restoration 🤣🤣🤣, you just increased the value of it by 1000%💪👍👏🇨🇦🇨🇦
Oooohhhh can’t wait for the next restoration!!!
I have watched countless videos on restorations from clocks, to cars to furniture and everything in-between, but you Sir rate amongst the top three of all time in my books. A true Master Craftsman, regardless of what you repair...............
Nice !
Honda 500 CR ! Next project, Yessss !!
Its a 250 ;)
Woohoo!!! Mini Project!!!!!
Enjoy buddy :)
Loving these old school Restorations but I can't wait to see that new toy done! Takes me back to the 80s when I was a wee boy!
Same here, cant wait to get it looking factory fresh again :)
Great work as always! I recently finished a 14 month restoration of a 1992 Ford Mustang 5.0 and I can confirm that paint stripper is indeed super lethal and toxic. I could never apply the stuff without a respirator on! I also ride a couple of Hondas so I am looking forward to the new project. Cheers from the USA. 👍
Brilliant job cant wait for the cr restoration. Excellent choice mate .....
Another great restoration, and as usual it was told expertly with good camera work and thoughtful editing. Really puts us in the room with you. Thanks for leaving the wobbly paint can in! 👍🇦🇺
No such thing as "light restoration" on this channel!!!! Looking forward to the CR restoration!!!
Top job as per usual!!
Nice restoration on the grease unit. Looking forward to the 2 Stroke beast restoration 👍
Awesome restoration and many THANKS !!! you made my day and week-end, I had a 250CR of 1985, I am so happy, can't wait to see you restoring that fantastic bike, it's Christmas for me, Thank you !
absolutely brilliant!
Watching you pour the old grease out gave me a helluva craving for a piece'n'golden syrup.
Great video.
haha love it! I've never tried a piece with golden syrup but I'm going to now.
Beautiful work!
Another great restoration. Looking forward to watching the new project 👍
Another awesome project! Can’t wait to see the start of the new project…❤️🙂
A beautifull grease gun !!! and a bike against..... the best news !!!!! thanks.
Excellent restoration, can’t wait to see you work in the dirt bike.
Finally a 2 stroke build
Can’t wait to see the Honda restoration! My late father had one for many years except his was yellow. It unfortunately sat in our shed for about 10 years until we sold it back in 2014. Awesome job on that pump btw!
Brilliant.Another beautiful job,as always.
That red is oddly satisfying!
Странное удовлетворение😄😄😄
As with everything you do that grease pump is yet another work of art, really looking forward to seeing the bike, can’t wait 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'd come watch for the little projects and the big projects,

Very good work. Professional and practiced. No wasted motion. Even this "light" restoration makes the bottle look new!

Finally, someone serious about getting the gunge off. None of this dishsoap and nail brush nonsense. Break out the power washer!
Stunning work. Looking forward to seeing your magic on another motorcycle. You are building a fantastic collection.

Great video I really enjoy all your uploads but these side projects really do show how things are built to last and now it’s built to break so we have to buy another.
I literally shouted “YES!” When I see that awesome CR revealed, I had a 1990 cr250 an awesome bike and would like a 450F one day
I literally can’t wait to see this one being transformed.
very nice .can'twait to see the cross bike awesome .
If that’s a “lightly restored” item, I’d hate to see a fully restored one.😁
Amazing work mate. You’re a perfectionist. You made my day.
Have not watched but I know it will be good old RRC restoration video. Thanks, I'l start watching now :)
Hope you enjoy it! :)
