I’m Danish and I actually have this exact model, but mine is in beautiful original shape. I got it from my mother as she got it from her mother. It’s very good at cutting bread. I love it. 😊
Aside from marvelling at your engineering, watching you free hand the missing leg was a revelation. Thank you sharing your artistry with us. This is truly delightful
I love how everytime Odd doesn't have something his first response is "eh, I'll just make it" and then he does it, it's great and a mindset more people (myself included) should have lol
The only thing better than learning there were over-engineered 1940’s era Danish bakery tools is seeing said device be expertly & so fully brought back to life. That “thickness guide” you recreated off of online research woulda blown the mind of (and likely tickled) the original fabricator. The doff of your cap to the handle designer was priceless.🤩 Another gem of a vid, thx for selecting a really crusty loaf to “process” at the conclusion. Much gratitude for sharing your talents & humor thru TH-cam.🇩🇰👍🔧💪🍞
@@medape Awesome pearls of info! Just think, the generations of bread slicing achieved courtesy of this hefty device! I betchya one got handed down many times over.🥖✌️👏
Considering the kind of heavy, dense rye bread they were built to slice, their design and prevalence made much sense in the “pre sliced era”. Especially if you had to slice bread for a large household. Today, they mainly serve as decorative, thematic bookcases, typically placed in the kitchen and holding cookbooks, of course (my sister, or rather her husband, has one in the kitchen).
These were so common everywhere in Denmark. It seemed like most people had one. It's perfect for slicing good Danish rye bread, which is very dark and super dense. I actually still have a bread slicer now, though not this particular model.
Yes, in my childhood (the 80s) these were still quite common, but were used (I think) almost exclusively for rye bread. I don't recall ever seeing someone use one of these for white bread, they'd use a bread knife for that instead, or another type of bread cutting apparatus. We had one similar to a meat cutter, but meant for bread and with a crank handle instead of a motor. The circular blade had a serrated edge like the edge of a bread knife, and there was a sort of wheel on the base you could turn to adjust the slice thickness.
I always appreciate when people include parts like the nails in the handle. Seeing that things don't always go smoothly for others or how you expect them to is reassuring.
Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm blown away with the versatility, precision, and knowledge of your craft. It's masterful artwork each and every time. Thank you for sharing these!
It's some kind of relaxing to listen to the sound of cutting bread 🙃 Good restauration work! Always interesting to see such old gadgets with a special design 👍
I am once again reminded of why the phrase "the best thing since sliced bread" exists. That is a *lot* of crumbs. Beautiful work restoring the slicer itself, though!
it been a good bit but its good to see you return odd tinkering I discovered you back in 2020 been a fan ever since of your repairing and restoration work.
My grandmother had one of these (I’m danish), but I only ever saw her using it for rye bread. For white bread she just used a knife. The shape of traditional danish rye is also square. Hence the bread fit perfectly in the wooden frame you so skillfully produced. Plus rye is so much more dense and firm than white bread. And when she used it, she was fast! She’d make 5 slices in seconds. All this to say, I think the original purpose was to slice home baked rye. A job well done, as always 👍
I yelled WD-40 as soon as you said 'It's not loosening'. LOL It's miracle stuff. Awesome work as always. I've never seen a bread slicer before. Even the Ducktor got fed, YAY.
Thank you so much for your work. I don't know what to write for a long comment, but I'm really looking forward to your videos. I hope things only get better for you.
That's one of the best designed blades I've seen on one of these devices. I've watched a few restoration videos of bread slicers, and the way the heel of the blade comes down first to start the slice is much better than others where the bread ends up being squashed before it is cut. Very nice restoration of this lovely thing!
The way you make engineering a new part into existence look like I could do it at home is incredible. I’m 100% not capable of what you do, but the way you do it makes me feel like I can 😂
Love the WD40 "gun" holster xD Making your own aluminium looks like some dangerous work if you are not careful. But that is why it is so awesome to watch! Is your can shaker self made?
I'm not sure if it's intentional, but I really love the subtle, classic TKOR references. Baking plaster molds, backyard foundry, aluminum ingots from a muffin tray... Made me smile
It’s so fascinating to see the different approaches in restoration videos. Earlier today I watched a different restorer fix the exact same Raadvad bread slicer (his was uploaded years ago), and seeing how you and he tackled it was outstanding. I think I can say yours was more interesting, because of all the extra things you had to fabricate (and I think yours looks nicer)! Great job, and keep up the great work!!
Your talent just keeps coming thru ,nice to have access to the right equipment.very nice restoration and producing of the metal parts.great video as always,just keep doing what your doing 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Excellent work like always. I love the laser machine that you use. It erases rust like a pencil eraser to paper. Awesome, keep up the great work. We need more people like you to bring classic products like this back to life instead of having them rotting away.👍🏽
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!!nIt cuts great and looks new once again!!!!! I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
I had a mini heart attack when you put ducktor on the chopping block. 😂
Me too 😭🤣🤣😃😀😀👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I had no reaction. I knew he wouldn't actually cut the ducktor.
_"The ducks' not Marie Antoinette! Get 'em outta there!"_
@@stephaniethebatter7975
Me too, I knew he was joking
He did it, cuz he doesn't love the ducktor, there's other videos that exemplify it. 😞😭
Best thing since sliced bread
Was looking for this comment.
Joey Logano much.
Damnit. Beat me to it
Huh
litterally though
We don't get 'em often, but it's always a treat to see a new Odd Tinkering video
My favourite part is how they just skip the bits that I would skip ahead through, it's basically perfect.
I’m Danish and I actually have this exact model, but mine is in beautiful original shape. I got it from my mother as she got it from her mother. It’s very good at cutting bread. I love it. 😊
For home use, I would argue that it is to this day the best machine for cutting our Danish rye bread (rugbrød).
I have got 2
Did Finnish bread normally require a dedicated cutter back then?
Aside from marvelling at your engineering, watching you free hand the missing leg was a revelation. Thank you sharing your artistry with us. This is truly delightful
I wish my dad was still alive, he'd love watching your channel with me. So satisfying to watch.
I always know I’m about to have a happy and relaxing half hour when I see that Odd Tinkering has uploaded again. 😊
💯
I always get a half hour of “what are you watching?”, “how can you even watch that?”, and “that sounds is SUPER annoying”
@@kungfoosquirrel You need more intelligent people in your life, lol. And a good set of headphones/earbuds.
I love how everytime Odd doesn't have something his first response is "eh, I'll just make it" and then he does it, it's great and a mindset more people (myself included) should have lol

I love this comment so much
The company actually started producing these in the end of the 1800's according to their website. Most households had one 🤗

Well said, Girl_Friday. Well said 👌🙌
hahaha I laughed so loud when the Ducktor ate the bread crumbs! thank you for sharing! love the color!
I admire your honesty when it came to needing multiple tries. Sometimes things don't work out, but you must try again.
What i like about Odd Thinkering? No bla bla bla, no annoying music, just relaxed repairs. And The Duckminator... 😂
Ducktor
I love watching a good sandblasting but that laser rust remover is probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen

the tha tung sound of it was the sound of my childhood mornings
Is that the WD-40 holster from King of the Hill?
Ah what a Sunday morning treat.
The more I watch this channel, the more amazed I am by your skills and knowledge. Is there anything you don't know how to do? You're incredible!
I always appreciate when people include parts like the nails in the handle. Seeing that things don't always go smoothly for others or how you expect them to is reassuring.
This is definitely the most satisfying thing you've ever restored
Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm blown away with the versatility, precision, and knowledge of your craft. It's masterful artwork each and every time. Thank you for sharing these!
Oh word? I was literally browsing this channel to put a nice calming video on before bed. This'll be awesome to wind down to!
From what I've seen, I think this is the best video he's done.
This is so much work man... I can't even imagine.
It's some kind of relaxing to listen to the sound of cutting bread 🙃
Good restauration work! Always interesting to see such old gadgets with a special design 👍
I love these videos that show more than just the in room restoration
I am once again reminded of why the phrase "the best thing since sliced bread" exists. That is a *lot* of crumbs. Beautiful work restoring the slicer itself, though!
it been a good bit but its good to see you return odd tinkering I discovered you back in 2020 been a fan ever since of your repairing and restoration work.
I preferred the original colour and Patina. But great find and restoration.
This guy’s videos are so satisfying and soothing to watch 😂 very therapeutic
Last night I thought ODD TINKERING is due an upload. This morning I got a notification! Superb work as always ODD. Beautiful piece
I've been watching your channel for a while now and seeing you casting metal made me realize this has come a lot from where you started, keep it up!
The Ducktor really is the star of every video.
The ending with Ducktor is great! Kiitos!

As much as I like your electronics repairs / restaurations, this mechanical content is what I live for. Thank you for this great video.
I yelled WD-40 as soon as you said 'It's not loosening'. LOL It's miracle stuff.
Awesome work as always. I've never seen a bread slicer before.
Even the Ducktor got fed, YAY.
I imagined it having the type of paint job that you gave it.
It’s beautiful and beautifully engineered! Wow!
Thank you so much for your work. I don't know what to write for a long comment, but I'm really looking forward to your videos. I hope things only get better for you.
When I watch you disassemble this, I think that has been taken apart in 80 years! Wow!
Repurposing the bolt into a screw was a brilliant idea!
That's one of the best designed blades I've seen on one of these devices. I've watched a few restoration videos of bread slicers, and the way the heel of the blade comes down first to start the slice is much better than others where the bread ends up being squashed before it is cut.

That is an excellent bread slicer! Awesome job. Thank you for showing us.
I miss those kind of videos 👆🏽 thank you so much ❤️
wow! That was absolutely gorgeous when it was done. incredible work, as always.
Opening the video like good lord I can't wait for him to slice some bread at the end
The payoff was def satisfying
I find all your videos are so satisfying to watch, but when you sliced that bread I was mesmerized lol
Impressive. That must have been a nightmare trying to bend that iron for the missing base. You do great work as always.
Isn't it aluminum?
Yet another example of this man's talent, very charming

This is so relaxing
Watching one of your videos is always a treat! Thanks so much for showing us your work!
Ya era hora de un vídeo nuevo! Muchas gracias!
I know it's an odd recommendation, but you should have a dar background. I watch all of your videos before bedtime and it's easier on the eyes.
Watching this video will soothe your eyes and ears.
This was one of your most impressive videos! You’ve really shown off your talent here. Well done!
the amount of machinery you have at your disposal is really impressive
Great video, I like that you gave new life to an old tool which would've been scraped metal to someone else
Your talent just keeps coming thru ,nice to have access to the right equipment.very nice restoration and producing of the metal parts.great video as always,just keep doing what your doing 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Great renovation . Need to see more of your presentations.
Not the Ducktor!!! Lol, awesome job!!!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful slicing at the end. Excellent work!
A lovely design, thank you for restoring it!
Excellent work like always. I love the laser machine that you use. It erases rust like a pencil eraser to paper. Awesome, keep up the great work. We need more people like you to bring classic products like this back to life instead of having them rotting away.👍🏽
It looks awesome! It was so cool when you bent the leg for it by hand.
Dope AF results, Odd Tinkering! Ideal for anyone who works and/or has worked in a bakery!
This is literally the best thing I've ever seen, all other technology will be compared to this
It's the greatest thing since... ohhhhhhhh, I see what you did there!
the laser cleaner was awesome!
Coolest tool to have in kitchen. Amazing job, the paint work is so spot on
The laser rust/paint remover is satisfying to watch.
Bread looks really good
This restoration is the best thing since the bread that thing used to slice.
Love the color with the wood.
Superb restoration! I could almost smell the fresh bread from here in Australia!
Beautiful restoration and video work!!!
Wow this looks spectacular at the end!
Another upload on this fine weekend. Can't wait for the final product as I'm watching!
I had never seen a laser cleaner! So cool
the finished slicer looks so beautiful! 💙
Top work! Always fascinating watching you restore.
Good job ODD beautiful restoration well done
The first Odd Tinkering video of 2024. And it's the best thing since....sliced bread?
Another fantastic video from my favorite restoration guy. Love it. Thanks for sharing. 👍😃
Very nice work O.T.. Love watching the laser.. Thx for bringing us along...
This is so relaxing 👌
Soo satisfying when I hear you cutting a slice of bread 🤤😋
