Old Gear Oil Pump Restoration - BAELZ 6G

- Welcome to another long overdue Really Random production. I hope you enjoy this jumbo episode.
More details below.
In this episode i am restoring a Baelz oil pump bucket i found at a car boot sale. After purchasing it and having it make an unholy mess in my car its finally in the workshop and ready to be revived!
The initial inspection revealed all was good with the pumping mechanism it moved freely and smoothly and hold pressure so the decision was made at that point not to disturb the pump as there are no serviceable parts in there and its all working so why go looking for trouble?
The bucket and hose were another story though, The bucket was badly dented and pitted and the hose was quite clearly non original and cracking and the nozzle was just a piece of 15mm copper pipe bent at a 90.
First job i tackled was stripping the item down into its individual components. After this was done i headed over to the sand blaster where all of the original paint and rust were stripped off the bucket leaving perfectly clean steel for me to work with. Instead of using the PDR rods to massage the dents out i thought id give the glue pulling technique a go. It worked quite well the dents came out most of the way requiring only a thin layer of filler to smooth out the surface the rest of the way.
Once happy with the surface i moved onto fixing the mounting tab for the filler lid, as you can see in the video the top part is missing so i used a copper plate as a backing and mig welded in the missing steel then ground it back and filed it all into shape to match the other tab. The it was simply a case of refitting the lid and replicating the blob of weld that was there before. Mission accomplished id say. I gave the base a good coat of Hydrate 80 to keep the rust at bay seeing as this area is a prime target for moisture accumulation.
Once 3 layers of high build primer were applied and cured i wet flatted the surface back to remove defects and prepare it for accepting base coat. The first layer is white, then the stenciling is applied then green, then some of the stencil is removed to reveal the logo then red applied.
At this point i jumped across and started working on the pump and base of the bucket. The pump was stripped the old fashioned messy way so as not to introduce any blast media into the pump cylinder and the rest of the parts were blasted after being given a thorough wash in the parts washer of course. Once they were all stripped they were given the same treatment as the bucket etch primed, high build primed, then base coated. once a bit of detailing was added by hand all the parts were given a hefty coat of clear and left to cure.
The old perished rubber hose was replaced with a new braided vintage style hose and a new brass tap and nozzle were constructed to try and replicate the original which you cant buy anymore. once all of that was fabricated all nuts bolts screws and washers were all polished up and ready for installing.
Assembly was pretty much the reversal of disassembly except for the addition of new gaskets.

Old Gear Oil Pump Restoration - BAELZ 6G - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Hey Guys, As you have probably noticed already i have updated the channel name and logo. The channel is no longer Really Random Channel it is now RRC Restoration. Just incase you were wondering why the water marks in the video still say Really Random Channel. Enjoy.
fantastic job,what is the name of the castrol green,and paint code.
hey, i found one of these in really rough shape, i dont have the tools or the time to fix it but i was wondering if you would be interested
RRC's Mum told him when he was younger, "my child, when you grow up, you can do anything you want." and by God has he proved it, lol. Thank you for such utter brilliance brother....
There are so many restoration channels where the guys clearly don't know what they are doing. It is refreshing to watch someone who knows the craft. The only thing I would have changed is to put the bolt that holds the feet on at the back of the unit instead of at the front. VERY NICE!!!
I have bee watching you for about a year and have learned a lot from you. Now, when you are working on a project, I can guess what is the next step you will do. Thanks to you, I have done some nice restorations of rusty tools, bicycles, and old power tools. My favorite has has been an old 1950's Craftsman dual bench grinder that I bought for $5 at a garage sale. I slowly worked on one part at a time, and it came out beautiful. I wish I could send you some pictures. Thank you for your inspirations...
That pump took me back to my boyhood: I used the exact same type 'Castrol'-pumps at my dad's garage when changing oil on gearboxes after school and in summer, that cranking and seeing the oil flow at the end brought an 'automatic' smile for times gone by . . . . . . .
Thanks a bunch for this fond 'retrospect', and the superb job restoring this artefact!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brilliant! :) Im so glad my little restoration could bring back some happy memories for you :)
I know you did a survey of what type of videos you should be making. Well, THIS is EXACTLY what I love about your channel. I would never have thought of a gear oil dispenser. But I loved watching the transformation and I learned several interesting techniques along the way. Beautiful work!! Thank-you!!!
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Nice to meet you, I live in Japan in Chiba prefecture. I found your video on TH-cam during the stay home period. Your videos are amazing. I was impressed by your technique of reviving old things.
George getting on it was quality 🤧
Very beautiful restoration, I just love the result. Thank you for sharing your amazing story. God bless you and your family
Thank you very much :)
You do such beautiful work, pure perfection! Love your videos always look forward to more...
I love your restorations. They soothe and satisfy my soul. Thank you so much!
Thank you very much! Im glad you enjoy my videos :)
haha, yeah... its like metal shop Zen...

Now that is how you are supposed to refurbish things. Nice to see someone use a backing copper plate to fill in a weld. I use aluminum on thin metal to keep from blowing through as well. Very nice. Thumbs Up!
Thank you for your kind comment :). using a backing plate is a great little trick that shockingly few people know about.
Lovely job, when I was using lots of paint stripper we used to use grade 4 wire wool. It used to clean and prepare the timber surfaces and not as aggressive as a wire brush. I love the smell of gear oil and use it on my motorbike chain
Lord have mercy young man that is a work of art! It’s absolutely beautiful! You are truly gifted in what you do...a true Master Craftsman!👍🏻❤️😊
So hypnotic and soothing. Great video, great workmanship. great result. 🙇♀️🥇👌
I love that you take pride in your work and that you know about using copper when you want to make a repair that requires a backing that weld won't stick to.
An absolute beautiful creation. I will have to watch it again to retain how the decal assembly all came together. It looked like it was one way then it came out another way. I love the green color.
Watching your work is so relaxing and inspirational. It makes me wish I had a decent workshop and tools. And a media blaster. and a knowledge of painting and welding - and a welder - and a spray-painting kit - and......................... 😀
Enjoy your restoration projects very much‼️Keep ‘um coming‼️
Absolutely fantastic cobba. A major overhaul. 😉😉👍👍
I used one 60 years ago at Afon Marteg Garage. At 77 this brings back great memories.
Awesome, Glad i could bring back some memories for you :)
Great job! I'm a brazilian guy who loves yours videos and technics.
Didn't thought of that, thank you. Excellent work
nicely done. that pump has some serious flow!
You are good at what you do, a craftsman, my congratulations, I will recommend your videos to my friends, greetings from Venezuela.
I recently found your channel and am absolutely in awe of the work you do. Loved watching this lovely old tool come back to life (probably better than it left the factory). And I really appreciate that you put more care into restoring an old workshop tool than some automotive TH-camrs put into restoring a whole car.
Finally a use for a stubby screwdriver! Beautiful job that green pops.
Wow!!! You are amazing!!! You Sir are an Artist!!! Thank you.
That is awesome work. Really fantastic quality, tasteful and truly sensitive restoration. 😍
I was like he better try it! Then at the end sweet victory! Good job 👌
Another outstanding job, absolutely beautiful. The only thing I would add would be a rubber grommet in the hole for the brass pipe to sit in to protect the painted edge.
Another AWESOME project!!!!! Great job all the way around !!!!!
Exceptional standards of fit & finish..
Plus I live near Wakefield...

Great job! Looks absolutely perfect!
Thank you :)
Beautiful job! Excellent results!

You always do a great job. On the side of the can of paint thinner where you covered up the material and the top of the same can you might wish to think about adding your own stickers to it also.
What an absolute beauty. Looks brand new. Really nice restauration. 👌😍
Thank you very much :)
Shows old pump... rolls the Honda out looking finished...what a tease!! Excellent resto on both projects 👍👍

It actually turned out to be a much bigger restoration than i had initially planned haha.

Thank you very much :)
Absolutely Beautiful!! And such a joy to watch!!!!!!
Thank you :)
Nice work !! I love these restoration videos.
Absolutely beautiful job
Thank you :)
Your metal working and painting skills are as good as it gets... Think about doing an antique wood furniture restoration.. there are plenty of distressed-broken 100 year old plus furniture pieces ie. cabinets, beds, chest of drawers etc. that can be found for very little money. I would love to see you give it your efforts
Thanks for the suggestion i might give it a go in a future video ;)
Great format! Great intensity of work! Thanks!
Thanks for watching :)
@@RRCRestoration You're welcome!!!!!!!

Wow! This is a work of art
Thank you :)
