No nauseating and pointless narration and gurning at the camera, just clear and speedy camera shots and lighting. Great sound too. I am about to buy one of these old tin cans.
Great Restore Martin as always. Bit undecided on the silence as you impart so much knowledge as you go along. There's always banter which is good. All the family enjoy watching your videos, and tbh we will always watch your videos with or without sound, whatever you choose. Just keep making them as you have an avid following.
Hi Martin, i'm a first time commenter but long time viewer since the gardening days, i have say you are a master of repair and restoration, there seems to be nothing that you cant turn your hand too or willing to tackle, I love the informative videos on all your channels, keep up the exceptional work, all the best, Richard.
Hi, my Dad had one of these, with which I used to keep the driveway clear of weeds. They always grew back though. There should be a metal cover which hinges on the two brackets sticking up on top of the burner shield. Once the burner was up to temperature, the cover was hinged up and over the top of the burner to cover the flame shooting out of the front and contained the generated heat over the ground being treated.
Hello Martin. I just can't help but watch your videos. I always give you a thumbs-up or like before I even watch the video because I know how good it's going to be. Keep up the good work, and as always, be safe.
I always love your videos, I've said this before and you've always thanked me but they are so relaxing to watch. Also on a side not its too bad we dont have more of these in the states. Im 37 and never seen anyone around here use them. With the massively contaminated rivers, from the chemical weed killer run off leading to high cancer rates, ect. Its to bad we dont use this technique more often. But then again im just a guy from Iowa so what do I know😉. Anyways great video sir thank you.
Beautiful job (as usual) Martin. Mow Mow Man strikes again! I have a patio made out of brick pavers that I could use that on. Of course, I'd probably need to get out the old pressure washer to take care of the soot after I used it!
great restoration, apart from the flat screw from the handle to the black flame part wasnt screwed vertical just left at an angle.... the joys of ocd lol
Bloody beautiful ! I remember as a little boy in the 60's watching my dad using his "Baring" flame thrower. What are the two lugs on top of the burner muzzle and do you think the decals would have been handed so they both pointed forward Mike
We use ours on the allotments, paraffin is way too expensive so we use kerosene (heating oil) way cheaper. We experimented with Diesel but it was too difficult to keep running. Next thing we knew we were asked for advice from another allotment holder who had one......."Can I run mine on Petrol??"... 😱 It's a good job we like him and quickly said "Only if you want to die!" LOL 😄
When I started watching I thought Christ he's gone too far this time, he's never going to get that working. But credit were credit is due. I would have like an explanation how it works though. I'm guessing that was a sort of wick but do you have to keep pumping the pressure up and what's the coil for?

Nice! It's more fun if you don''t let it pre-heat so it just spit streams of flaming fuel, haha.
Haha, Yes I saw your one lol, I don't think your missus was too impressed though lol
Can I use disal or petrol in this

Great refurb with a demo of it working too . The new stickers really finish the job off .

Wonderful Martin, Barry looks great! :)

Thanks Lee, I sold the ones I restored but I now need one as I'm over run with weeds in my garden lol
Beautiful!!
Now that's how to do a restoration brilliantly
Great vid Martin 👍
nice work! might come in handy some day ;)
Beautiful job (as usual) Martin. Mow Mow Man strikes again! I have a patio made out of brick pavers that I could use that on. Of course, I'd probably need to get out the old pressure washer to take care of the soot after I used it!
Nice restoration. Scary to use. Many sheds and a few houses were burned down with these.
Nice to know I'm not the only one who uses their picnic table for a workbench.
its cheap and it works lol
You had me at flamethrower restoration.

Cool👍👍👍
Looking good Martian great job
Last thing you want to see on the moors in this weather...Excellent job.
Rich, steam punk, pyromaniacs will jump on this!
The Sticker is awesome! ;)
Not seen one of them in years, they light on a similar principle to the Tilley lamp :)
Very nice sir! From NC.
Things are getting HOT 🤪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Nice Job!
Love it great project
Great...... But we're did you get that transfer to finish it off so nicely ?
I made it
@@RetroHax then that is a video in itself
Good job
Amazing!
Good old historic tool there Martin. But I do miss you talking in video
I still do on my Retrorestore channel Matt
More resto's like this please.And was that waterslide paper the stickers were done with?
Yes it was Mark.
Loving what you do, but please give your garden some love too. Make a video of it?
🎥 Great Video 🎬 ! _ Congratulations! 👍 🇧🇷
This reminds me of the old black & white silent movies, only in colour lol
great job that man! whats ur plains for it, keeper or a seller ?
Not sure yet.
good job.
Love it
Good restoration but would prefer you doing a running commentary as and when what you are doing and what you have to do
This is a different style of restoration vid. The other channel will stay the same for me talking.
Awesome
That thing is freaking sexy when you are done with it. Love it man!
👍👍
Хорошая реставрация.Лайк!
Bloody beautiful ! I remember as a little boy in the 60's watching my dad using his "Baring" flame thrower.
What are the two lugs on top of the burner muzzle and do you think the decals would have been handed so they both pointed forward
Mike
The LUGS are for fitting an optional "hood" which help keep the flames in a narrower area when a little windy
What about the big rust hole in the bottom of the burn chamber??
Doesn't affect it at all
Good job come out really nice u keeping it or selling it
Not sure yet Dan.
Dear sir where did you source the decals please.
I made it
@@RetroHax wow nice job! I’m inspired to do my fathers up but couldn’t find any decals. Your reply explains why :-)
Great vid mart .i hear theres a big demand for them in greece at the moment
Great job, but this potential firebomb would be last on my list of restoration projects.
My xstepdad had one of these which he sold on ebay, would be funny if it was the same one lol
You clever bugger looks great. What was the red 🔥 lighter called? And the grease? A job well executed. O who did the labels?
It's just white waterproof grease Paul. the red wick was just some exhaust heatproof tape I had laying about.
Great video, where on earth did you get the stickers ?
I made them
Genius !
Nice job Martin old school weed removal.
Beautiful, but that's a weed burner and not an actual flame thrower.
We had one of those. Used kerosene in it.
what is that machine called you keep putting parts into
A Media blaster
thanks
Works great. Looks great. Now how about all those weeds where the pond was. Don't burn down the fences. I prefer 'Talkies'.
I know you do Bri but this is a different style of vid on this channel.
never seen a sticker applicated like that before woah
We use ours on the allotments, paraffin is way too expensive so we use kerosene (heating oil) way cheaper. We experimented with Diesel but it was too difficult to keep running. Next thing we knew we were asked for advice from another allotment holder who had one......."Can I run mine on Petrol??"... 😱 It's a good job we like him and quickly said "Only if you want to die!"

The coil is there so it can heat up a lot of fluid around the heat source just like in a hot water tank.

That looks like an asbestos strip in the front burner that you were pulling about.
Yes it was
Good job, now you can rid of all your garden weeds/brambles your wife will be pleased!
That’s a weed burner
Good for Zombies!!! Lol
Burn the weeds lol
