German manufactured, early part of the twentieth century....beautiful restoration as always. A big hug for little Mona, and best wishes to all!
Interesting that it had a Star of David on it.
@@georgejones3526 Agreed....ironic as well. The company's owners may have be Jewish and that this item would pre-date the rise of nazism.
@@dr.skipkazarian5556 Might explain how it got damaged.
In 1900 the six branch star was in wide use
Absolutely beautiful restoration. You have an especially fine touch with these ornate castings. I could tell this was a book press, but I didn't realize it had missing parts. The damaged disc would also have stopped me because I'm not a welder. I think this is a museum quality restoration. Thank you and smiles from the USA.
Thank you many times Pat, after such comments I want to continue on other projects :) Have a nice day :) Radek
I do not think this is a book press - in fact I am almost certain it is not. It is more certainly known as a letter press or lawyers press = used for compressing papers, letters etc.
Ditto, Tom..
USA beautiful workmanship
@@icarus877 Agreed! it was supposed to be an easy to carry press, also to press flowers, light stuff. I find it a pity that it has lost its original function although the job is well done..
@@icarus877 No, it’s definitely a bookbinding press. It can be used for different purposes, but it’s called a bookbinding press because it’s one of the presses used by bookbinders. Letterpress is something completely different, and I don’t know why lawyers would have a press like that, or why anybody would want to compress papers or letters - except bookbinders of course, for binding them.
Uwaaah! What a beautiful book press. People used to know how to make things that were both lovely and functional, didn't they?
Yes you are right :)
Absolutely stunning restoration of a book press

Compliment from an expert makes me happy twice. Thank you.
That is quite the most elegant book press I’ve ever seen! At first, I was surprised at the red paint, but I knew you would antique it up a bit before you were done! Beautiful!
Thank you so much Vickie :) Radek
Very sure this is not a book press, it is a letter press. I have approximately 20 presses, some made completely of wood, others are more modern like this pretty standard cast item.
You restore some of the most beautiful objects and you do such a marvelous job with each. This book press has to have a long and interesting history. I also love the editing on this video, so fun and creative!
Another beautiful job. Thank you.
Thank you many times friends :) Radek
Salut j’adore vos restaurations c’est vraiment magnifique 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Merci mon ami :) Radek
Sometimes I'll watch these and think "I wouldn't of done that like he did", but man, you can't argue with the results. Beautiful work, sir.
I agree, everyone does it the way he likes it :)
omg that brings back so many memories! I grew up in a print shop and used a book press almost everyday, one of my after school jobs was to glue notepads and books together. I really miss those days, I had so much fun working there after school.
Wow, I envy this experience! Thanks Steve :) Radek
So did I!
What a beautiful tribute on this day of Pesach ... the Star of David is clearly visible, stamped at about 2 cm. of one of the supports of the press.
Beautiful work, by the way.
thank you very much Alejandra :) Radek

Did I mention that "questions" ..... let's call it that.
If you read carefully, I clearly wrote a detail that I saw at work ... simple. Don't worry about my words. go on with your life.
masterfully done and thanks for not saturating the video with music.
Thank you so much :) Radek

You made something unusable into something both beautiful and usable again. It even looks its age. Excellent work!
Thank you so much :) Radek
What an amazing transformation. Beautiful!

The technique you do with the black paint at the end is a great idea. I love the antiqued look. Good Job as always.

My favourite restoration, Book Presses! You did a smashing job of this beautifully ornate old press.
I'm glad, thank you for the compliment :)
What a thing of beauty, you did such a wonderful job.
The paint turned out just amazing. I was really questioning the gold but then you put that black lacquer distressed look on it.. oh man it looks so good.
FANTASTIC CRAFTSMANSHIP. 👍👍
Thank you so much Jonny, I was a little worried about how he will like the press ?! My wife Veronika was not very excited :( Have a nice day friend, you made me happy :) Radek
@@VeradonaRestoration
You did such a good job.
I would be very proud of myself if I were you.

Отличная работа, Радек. Патина отлично легла.
Спасибо Владимиру, Радек

Thank you so much Dee, we are both pleased :) Veronika and Radek
Now that's what I love to is art work with personality, good job.
You always bring your work to the next level, must be the great cooking you get to eat, and I like your humor. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching, I really appreciate it, Radek
That was brilliant restoration, I just loved the way you complete missing parts and take it back to its glorious days, I could see a star of David on it and there were some writings too, was it meaningful ?? Keep on with your fine restorations
Thanks Rami , something like: Mustfrschu 17 Elsenotessnr DPR.Moravia Marienthal, but it doesn't make sense :) Radek
The parts I could decipher say “Eisengiesserei Marienthal Moravia”. (Eisengiesserei meaning iron foundry)
A quick check with Wikipedia shows the following:
This should be the German name of the Czech town of Mariánské Údolí, nowadays part of Hlubočky. An ironworks was established here in 1827.
In 1854 an ironmonger by the name of Ignaz Karl Machanek transformed it into a nail factory.
In 1870 this and the “Marienthaler Eisenwerke” (Marienthal ironworks) became part of “Moravia”, a joint stock company. After being part of the German Reich (from 1938?) until the end of World War II the region was returned to the Czech Republic. Following the Velvet Revolution, the ironworks was privatized again and nowadays goes by the name “Mora Moravia a.s.”.
Unfortunately, the English entry isn’t half as extensive as the German one, hence my mediocre attempt at translating the relevant information.
On the other side of the base plate, the number 470 is clearly visible. Maybe a serial number?
As to the Star of David, I’m at a loss. Maybe this was etched because of some kind of customer request?
@@zr550b thank you so much for the very The detailed explanation
How nice of you to have made this press match the shirt! :-)
Wow, you're attentive, thank you Dave :)

Hermosa pieza y muy buena restauración ! Felicitaciones !!!
Gracias Adriana :) Radek
Very pretty. The black paint on the red paint, made a beautiful effect.
Thank you so much :) Radek
Nice finish 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks David :) Radek
star of David?
yes
Marcus:
Star of David or Maguen David (king David's Shield):
A six pointed star, symbol of Jewish people and Israel 🇮🇱 also.
@@aridemedina8770 But back then it was also used in a wider context
As always great attention to detail!! Loved the video editing!! God bless and take care.
Thank you so much Elliot :) Radek
Beautifully restored book binding press. Thank you. Australia.
Thank you so much :)
Такое красивое литье и краской? 1000 дизов!!!
Всех отблагодарить невозможно! It is impossible to thank everyone!
На вкус и цвет, как говорится.. на мой взгляд шикарно! Браво маэстро 👏👏👏👏👏
@@a.h.berlin8768 Спасибо
Если пересматривать классическое настольное литьё- так оно и должно быть окрашено.
Главные детали и особый декор выделяется яркими красками или тонированием, смотря на общий фон и гамму
Мне тоже понравилось, отличное восстановление 👍👍👍👍👍
Вероника потрудилась на славу! Респект!
Alright you definitely restored the hell outta that thing. Might be your best vid yet
Thank you so much Autin :) Radek
Extraordinary! Well done. Form and function at it’s best.
Thank you Eldon :) Radek

Thank you :) Radek
Brilliantly done, perfect aplication of knowledge, experience and skill.
The comedy is brilliant, making it look like the sharpie and the scribe (and even gravity) cut the steel plate was genius.
Thank you Jeff :) Radek
All i can say is WOW, what a beautiful work you have done.
Thank you so much Henrik :) Radek
Well done, look amazing.. the old style finish is perfect.. just wow
Thank you so much Hans :) Radek
Je visionne la restauration de cette presse d'une incroyable beauté pour la 36 millième foi. Je n'ai pas de mot pour décrire mon admiration pour ce magnifique travail qui redonne sa beauté originelle a cette merveille . Je pleure de dépit de ne pas la procéder et de savoir que, peut-être, elle sera rangée dans un sombre débarras, alors qu'elle serait admirée en permanence si elle trônait sur un meuble de mon salon. Elle m'a fait tourner la tète. 😍🥰 Encore bravo pour ce formidable travail.
Wow, merci beaucoup, je suis content. Radek
Beautiful restoration of a Victorian era binder's press. Very well done.
you so much Phill :) Radek
WHAAA ! Quel incroyable travail de restauration sur cette presse qui a bien souffert. Des mains en or ont redonné sa splendeur originelle à cette pièce de musée. Certainement LA plus belle presse que j'ai pu voir à ce jour. Les anciens ne se contentaient pas de créer de l’utilitaire, ils savaient y ajouter la beauté. MAGNIFIQUE .
Wow, merci beaucoup :) Radek
I don’t know what you could of done better! You truly saved a piece of history and did it beautifully. I love your videos, please keep them coming.
Thank you William, I'm pleased :) Radek
