This is probably the best fit of scales I've seen on youtube. Even when you zoomed in, I didn't see a single gap. Very high quality work!
Thanks Brian! I would have had an even better fit if I didn't have to glue the scales twice!🙄
@@357magdad No kidding. That's great.
Brass wood and steel. Beautiful work magdad
The three ingredients to a great vintage tool!
This is rather interesting because when you want to glue the metal, the epoxy glue is usually the very first thing that comes to your mind. And then you get the one that will stick to everything but the metal 🙂
First one for me as well.
I knew I should have just waited and ordered the Bob Smith Industries epoxy! Lesson learned!
Beautiful! Perfect handle screwdrivers are one of my favorite vintage tools. They look cool and fit the hand.. well, perfect. The time and effort you put into this one, totally worth it. Looks brand new. What a show piece. Nice job.
Thanks Joe! It's too pretty to use now😂
You did a perfect restoration on the perfect screwdriver. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this project. I learned from your video. Thank you
Thanks! Replacing the handles on one of these can be tricky!
Pretty darned amazing project there MagDad. Good use of graph paper and several drawn angles to match an angle needed. I learn something new from a these projects and crushing the scales for an imprint, who'd a thunk it.
Thanks Michael! I keep graph paper and some old school drafting tools around for jobs like this!
Just beautiful results! The crushing technique was ingenious, I’ll remember that!
Thanks John! I wonder if the factory used a similar method?
I don’t know, but it sure beats the hell out of trying to fit it by strictly sanding!
@@johnmclaurin amen!
That is truely a flawless restoration. Your technique is making me rethink some wood scaled projects that I had sidelined. Outstanding work! Cheers
Thanks Joe! I wonder if the factory used a similar technique on the scales?
Really clever technique with the vice! Love the final finish. Always great to see a video from you!
Thanks Gavin! I've got some good projects lined up for 2022!
Magdad you magnificent TH-camr. You’ve cracked the code! That’s the best idea I’ve seen on fitting these scales. I’m going to try this method immediately. Thanks! 😃👍🏼
Give it a shot David! I wonder if the factory used a similar technique?
I really liked your process on how you found the correct angle as well as how you fitted the wood pieces. Perfect handle screwdrivers have been one of my favorite vintage tools. I gotta say that wood grain looks perfect on that screwdriver (pun intended🤣).
Thanks YDOC! I have a bunch of cherry left over from an old kitchen project. I'm glad I kept it! I've used it on a lot of projects!
Very ingenious Magdad on the fitting of the scales. I would never have thought of that! I have a similar screwdriver that i bought on Ebay that needs the scales remade. You have now given me the motivation to tackle this project. Great finished project sir! 🇺🇸👍 Roger
Thanks Roger! Let me know how you make out!
Them scales turned out great! I do believe you've created the new awesome way of fitting them! Its the best way Ive seen yet with the best results by far. Great job!
Thanks Wally! I wonder if they did something similar at the factory!
That screwdriver came out great. I really like the finish on cherry handles and you made that restoration look easy. Nice job!
I've got a bunch of scrap cherry, so a lot of my projects end up with cherry handles!
Thank you for this video!!! Those wood handles are TRICKY!
I wonder if the factory had a similar process?
Those perfect handle screwdrivers really look good after restoration. Nice job. Too bad about the JB weld. Liked the crushing of the handle technique. 👍Also like how Irwin Stamped US of A. Great video. Thanks.
Thanks Mike! The USofA is one of my favorite markings!
Wow. What a transformation. I love that cherry and the finish. Chuck really made the metal shine. Great job guys. 🇺🇸
The danish oil on cherry is one of my favorite combinations!
That's superb job. Looks amazing. Maybe you've cracked part of the mystery about how it was done in the factory.
Thanks Alex! I bet the factory did something similar!
They say "you live and learn"!
Today you taught me to be sure and read the label. If someone asked me yesterday I would have responded that JB Weld is the go to stuff to stick stuff to steel. How wrong can I be!
Nice tool restoration job. I found a set of screwdrivers that look just like this but, they are a Chinese knockoff. Even though they are not Irwin the grip gives powerful torque to stubborn slotted screws.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I've had good luck with standard JB Weld, Kwik Weld and Kwikwood.
After reading the comments it looked like all of the really awesome descriptive word were well used in describing both your restoration methods and finished product, so I'll just say the whole thing was absolutely brilliant!!!
Outstanding job buddy, loved it and all of your videos!
Thanks B Kind! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Man that came out beautiful. Awesome job admitting wrong epoxy not the product failing 👍
Thanks Bob! I would definitely recommend the Bob Smith Industries epoxy!
The screwdriver looks brand new! I have used the BSI epoxy too and it not only works great but it has a low oder. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks John! This was a fun and challenging project!
What an ingenious mind you have. Great way to get the angle for the scales and especially crushing it in the vise. Great restoration! 👍👍
Thanks Frank! I get a kick out of trying new techniques!
Awesome job! I am so glad you tried out the JB weld epoxy, you saved me from a nightmare. Thanks!!
Thanks ScoutCrafter! The Bob Smith Industries stuff is the best I've used!
That's a very very nice job love the wood thanks for sharing your time and skill and remember stay safe and make more great videos 🍺🍺👍👍🇬🇧
Thanks Brian! I'm working on a key holder right now😁
Great job! Good on you for going back and reviewing the JB Weld usage. Not reading the usage guide has been my undoing more than once.
Thanks Lyndon! I haven't had good luck with the quick set epoxies.
WHAT a BEAUTIFUL result from that! I'm liking the pressed in idea. Amazing job!
Thanks Aaron!
It was a full fledge debacle but thanks to you, it looks like it is dipped in 'AWESOME SAUCE'!
Thanks Andy! I'm glad it turned out well!
That Irwin Screwdriver turned out great!
Thanks Jess! I am really happy with the results!
Love love love perfect handle screwdrivers and that crush tip is something I'm definitely going to use.
Thanks for another great video
Thanks Gordon! Give the technique a try!
Fantastic job on that Perfect Handle screwdriver. The crushing the wood is a great idea. I have a couple of those screw drivers that I look forward to restoring one of these days. I booked marked your video for reference. That’s for sharing.
Thanks Dave! Crushing with the vise was definitely easier and more accurate than trying to sand the scales to fit!
A joy to watch. I have never been brave enough to replace the scales on a perfect handle screwdriver but your vice method looks a little less scary.
Thanks Tony! When you get one with scales in really poor condition, give it a try!
Great idea pressing the scales into the screwdriver!! Came out amazing!!
Thanks Bill! I wonder if they did something similar at the factory?
Great job. That scale solution was a smashing idea.
Thanks Ben🤣
I love that crush method to fit the scales ! That wouldn’t ever have occurred to me ! Came out fantastic my friend!
Thanks! It seems like a good way to get the scales perfectly formed to the metal.
Perfect solution for a Perfect Screwdriver, well done Sir!
Thanks Ray!
Wow Magdad! That perfect handle Irwin turned out beautiful! Nice work brother
Thanks Ivan! This was a challenging project!
Perfect method for prefect style scales... seems I posted my comment in wrong video..lol.. smh!!! U know I enjoyed it!!! And u learnt me something...win win
Thanks Vic! I had fun experimenting with a new technique!
Great imaginative way to get such beautifully fitted scales. There was essentially no trial and error fitting in your project , unlike most scale replacement videos I've seen. It came out great the first time. I have an import set of perfect handled screwdrivers which I like. They fit my hand well, and I've had them a long time. The scales (beech I think) can't begin to compare to yours. Thanks.
Thanks Pat! I wish I would have waited for the good epoxy! I think the fit up would have been even better!
These screwdrivers cause me no end of frustration. I’ll try your technique next time. This screwdriver turned out better than factory. So nice! 😀
Thanks Robert! Give it a try and let me know how you make out!
Awesome Magdad! Best job I’ve ever seen on perfect handle scales. Thanks!
Thanks Stan! I am happy with the results!
DUDEZILLA! I soooo knew you would make it great after I failed to do it!!!
Thank you again for sending it my way. It was a really interesting project!
Brilliant work. Another beautiful piece.
Nice job, I have and use several of this type of screwdriver. In WW2, most tanks were issued as part of their tools, a set of this type of heavy duty screwdrivers.
I think they were part of the Jeep tool kit too.
Terrific restoration on difficult scales. Your detailed instructions should help me crush some projects.
Crush it John!😁
Great job as always, and a very clever trick to use a vise to emboss the outline of the blade onto the scales!
Thanks Chris!
The restaurated Screwdriver looks really great. Thanks a lot.
Thanks! I am very happy with how it turned out!
Outstanding! You made it look so easy that I should probably get my PHS back into shape.
Thanks for the tip on the good epoxy. I keep experimenting without much success
The Bob Smith Industries epoxy is good stuff!
It came out great love the way the feel in the hand
Thanks Larry! The teardrop shape is very ergonomic. Wood handles always feel better to me than plastic.
Brilliant thought process there Bud!! Excellent results!!☻
Thanks RoadKing! I am very happy with how it turned out!
Niiiice. I especially liked the part where you squeezed the scales on! Neat trick!
Thanks!
Looks great! I do love those screwdrivers.
Me too! I always keep an eye out for them at the sales!
A + for making your own wood scales I like the bob smith epoxy I use the 5 minute stuff because I am brave and foolish when it comes to using it you have to work fast but I am used to using it
I like the 30 minute slow cure. I get nervous when clamping things up!
That came out amazing what a job well done buddy
Thanks! It was fun trying a new technique!
Thanks for sharing, you did a beautiful job!
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
Looks brilliant 👍 love your work
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
Looks great! Excellent idea crushing in the vise.
Thanks! The technique worked out well!
Hello Magdad great job 👍🇺🇸
Thank you!
Stunning work my friend!
Thanks!
Very nice. I really enjoyed this project. Thank you for sharing. It is truly appreciated.
Thanks George! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Great job looks like new again. Thanks 😊 🙏
Thanks Mike!
Good job! Very nice results.👍
Thank you! I'm really happy with the way the scales turned out!
Excellent job Magdad!!!
Thank you Juan!
I have a couple that I have cleaned up but avoided replacing the scales. I'm definitely having a go now.
Give it a shop Rob! Let me know how you make out!
Awesome trick with the vise! Outstanding results!
Thank Tom! I am very happy with the results!
Wow that came out good, hope all you Magdads had a great Christmas 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thanks Phil! Happy New Year!
Beautiful finish
Thanks David! I really like the danish oil on the cherry!
Enjoyed every segment of this great video...Excellent work...ONWARD....
Thanks! I would have enjoyed it more if I had just waited a week for the right epoxy!🙄
Fantastic job! I like watching your videos! You are one smart fellow!
Thanks Wayne! I like experimenting with new techniques.
Beautiful...great choice with the cherry...
Thanks Chuck! I've got a bunch of scrap cherry, so it ends up getting used on projects like this!
Amazing results!
Thanks Roberto!
Awesome restoration.
Thanks!
Great job on the screwdriver. I like how you used the vise to get an exact fit on the handle.
Thanks David! It was way easier and more accurate than trying to sand the scales to fit!
That looks fantastic!!
Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful! Cherry looks very nice, I have used mahogany and also crushed fit it . Thanks, really enjoyed that.
Thanks Tony! I think the factory must have done something similar.
Great job! Nice way to attach the scales by crushing!
Thanks Steve!
Wow that looks great! 🛠👍😊
Thanks Sparky! I wish we had feel-o-vision! The cherry scales feel great in the hand!
Very creative approach. Graph angle samples & vice crushing the fit. Very nice result.
Thanks! It's fun to try new techniques!
Absolutely Beautiful!
Thanks Stephen!
Great job as usual! You may have solved the wood scales issue for all time! Well done!
I think the technique has promise! It might be similar to what was done at the factory.
@@357magdad possibly. My only concern is if the handle absorbs too much moisture and the wood swells, it might want to ride those angles and separate from the metal underneath. I know you used the good epoxy so it should not, but I think it would have been slightly more robust if you peened the brass pins to mushroom the heads a little before final sanding to mechanically lock the scales onto the handle. Maybe you did, and I missed it, or maybe you did not show it? Sorry I am commenting a while after watching the video!
@@timeflysintheshop I did not peen the pins.
A lot of work, but the result is more than worth it!
Thanks Peter! Perfect handles are tough to get ....perfect.
Looks great well done.
Thanks!
Awesome job as always and I use the same technique once on a pocket knife that had the same kind of angles on them awesome job
Thanks Tristan!
I enjoyed the video. Thank you sir.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Hal!
Crushing the scale,,,simply genious
Thanks Dale! I wonder if they did something similar at the factory?
@@357magdad I was thinking the same thing, Although assembling without epoxy would be hard to do, it appears the pressing may have been part of the original process. I hope someoune out there knows for sure. Those handles you installed are the best I have ever seen.
I couldn't imagine it turning out any better! The crush was a nice technique. Epoxies can be fickle, huh?
I am happy with the results. I would definitely recommend the Bob Smith Industries epoxies.
Wow and absolutely stunning job there Mr Mag those scales are probably the best fit I have seen on a perfect handle restoration 😁👏
I think the vise crush method is similar to how the factory did it!
@@357magdad Ah I never knew that, will have to remember that for the future, I have a couple which need new scales 😁🍻
Brilliant 3MD!! 👍👍👀
Thanks!
Wow that came out great.
Thanks!
Man, that is excellent!!!
Thanks Richard!
Awesome job. Thank you fire sharing
Thanks Big Mike!
Brilliant!! That's the way I'm gonna do it - I have one waiting..... Funky music by the way 👍🏻
Thanks Armando! I tried to pick some music Andy would like!
WOW! What a fantastic result! Great technique too! I have plenty of perfect handle screwdrivers in need of handles if you want some more practice!
Thanks! I've got a bunch too!
Great job, I have an Irwin Perfect handle that is in need of help. I have been putting it off because of the scales. You made it look easy, and I'm going to give it a try.
Thanks Ernie! Give it a try!
I like the way you narrate the video, I suck at trying to do this... I like your channel and Instagram. very cool
Thanks! The voice over is a little more work, but it lets me have more control over what I say. Plus I like to work with the radio on and TH-cam doesn't like that!
@@357magdad ahh yeah I know huh TH-cam and background radio makes it a pain in the ass.
Good video. Thanks for the epoxy brand tip.
Thanks! Bob Smith Industries is good stuff! I like the 30 minute slow cure - I don't feel rushed to get my project clamped up.
Dang M.D. That came out beautiful.. I wish I could find one of these screwdrivers 🪛 and one of the old bicycle wrenches.. Keep an eye out for me.. Again, very nice work..
Thanks Gary! Send me an email! 357mdad@gmail.com
I’m impressed!Very nice job Magdad! I watched Scoutcrafter replace a set and did it his way but I believe I’ll try your way next. Thank You for sharing!!!
Give it a try! Let me know how you make out!
@@357magdad will do👍🏻
really enjoyed the video
Thanks Trevor! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
