It's just been fascinating following this story from start to finish Dom. Thanks for all the hard work and sharing this with us - incredible !!
Hello Dom,
Sorry for being slow in watching this episode... a big CONGRATULATIONS on getting "No 1" complete... See you next time.
Take care.
Paul,,
Hi Paul!
Thanks so much
Looks great Dom!! Been following since the beginning..you should be very proud of what you have recreated!!
The cream is a must, it's not a work of art (well it is) but it's a working machine and needs to reflect that. A website is a must. Most people when looking or researching for something will automatically look on line. I've enjoyed all your videos and saved the all of them. Well done Dom, have a great weekend 😎🍻
Don’t shy away from using a website address on the plaque; The wonderful thing about this project is the fact it brings an old tool back into use in the modern age.- you’ve made a working tool for a modern craftsman, not a museum piece! Using a website reflects this.
The Ranalah's look fantastic, and have been done absolutely properly, with the R&D you have put into them. I'd like to see a chinese copy try to even come close to the way these machines will perform. The only thing is, I would've painted the lettering pillar box red, that way you would see it proudly announcing the Ranalah, from the far side of a large workshop, as you walked in the door, with the cream lettering, you have to be fairly close to it to read it, but persoal choice great job!
Great work Dom. The cream looks right to me. I really hope you make a commercial success of this. Awaiting the selling price with anticipation!
The overall shape of the Ranalah, with that graceful curved upper arm and sculpted base, looking ever so much like a decorative element from the Golden Gate bridge is nothing short of art. Also, I think that your choice of color was perfect for the lettering. Subtle but still present, it doesn't draw the eye away from that gorgeous shape. I was going to say that it's too bad tools like this aren't being made any more, then I remembered, Yes they are, now! Dom's doing it! Just excellent sir, simply excellent! Thanks for taking us all along for the ride!
Hi Dom, Bought your book and love it. As a 77 year old craftsman I have many vintage tools that I bought new. 🛠 😄
This is why you tube is so great! Finding awesome contact like blasted bare, spoke with Phil recently and what a great guy he is, real professional and gave me great advice. Cheer Dom
Love the colours, brilliant project, great video
What an incredible passion project!
It looks absolutely fabulous
Great listening to an artist discussing his tools.
Fantastic result, great project.
What a great project.
Looks great Dom. Thank you for the ride...
Fantastic job Dom. That colour scheme looks great.
Really interesting, Dom thankyou for that!
Looks fantastic 👌. Excellent work in reviving the old make. 👏 😎
Brilliant!
What a project. Very interesting series!
Coming along. Thanks for sharing. Be well.
Loving your journey.
Well done Dominic on the first complete ranalah colour looks understated and original. Your determination 👏
Great love it!
Truly an amazing journey. Congrats!
Well done, Dom. A lovely machine.
Looks very smart and classic looking with the cream lettering, good choice
Looks great 👍
I love this story! and yes I want one! Can't wait for the website and production....
Looks great!
Wonderful video, just so amazingly interesting, thanks for all the effort you put into it, and Wendy is such a plus. Good luck with the rest of the project.
Congratulations on completing the two beautifully magnificent machines. I hope the orders start pouring in. Thank you, take care and peace out.
Beautiful!
❤the cream. Well done, Dom!
Well done Dom another great video totally awesome to see the Ranalah finally finished the colour scheme looks brilliant like many other people I agree with the website on them. It's modern and would show the difference between a modern Ranalah and a older one they are identical in every way possible. Watching the series has been fantastic you should be so proud of yourself and what you have achieved well done 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍♥️
Well done Dom. Fascinating watching the two Ranalahs being ‘glass blasted’ and looking the better for it. The paint job is fine and so is the lettering.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Looking good !
Hi Dom, Yes was the right choice of paint, looking forward to the next phase, stay safe, All the best Brian 😃
Dom its been awesome watching the Ranalah take shape and helping to ensure our heritage of workmanship live into the future.
What an extraordinary labour of love Dom. So impressed and delighted to see it finished (and I think you did the right thing with the cream! 😉)
Fabulous. Congratulations
The Colours look like they are just meant to be..Good choice.
Looks great well done 👍
Excellent; and your choice of colour scheme really works Dom. Having watched all these absorbing episodes from the outset, seeing the finished article was quite emotional. Goodness knows how it felt for you!
Dom , Beautiful ,just beautiful mate!
They're coming out well, they actually look brand new now!
Cream is the best choice It looks great well done
Wow! Watched all episodes from here at the other side of the sea and i’d still buy any merchandise haha what a tool !!
I was watching Ted the Coppersmith from The Restorers and he uses one of these to work on his sheet metal. It is nice to see them still in use!!
Another fascinating video Dom, thank you and congratulations it’s finished…!!!! Well done indeed. Kind regards, Richard.
Thank you!
Great choice of colour, the machine looks absolutely fantastic. Very well done.
Thank you very much, I am chuffed
Brilliant video thanks Dom 👍😂
Cream was the right choice 👍
Congratulations on such a successful journey, just remembering you dragging that old one out of the scrub all those months ago.
That is looking great, well done. 👍
Thank you!
That looks grate. Glade to see you got your first one done. What a cool milestone. Look forward to seeing where this goes and hope the brand is successful.. God bless
Excellent shade Dom & i think the name stands out well so good with what you have achieved.
Take care. ps Cuddles to Wendy.
Good choice on the lettering.
Thanks
Thank you for another great video Dom. Who knew that theres science behind Shot blasting 🤔. Love the colour choice. They look awesome. Congratulations !!
There is no reason why the old and the new can't come together. Unless you have a showroom people will always go online to look at stuff and then maybe want to see one in the flesh. Lovely piece of work Dom
Been so interesting following the story of the English wheel - it should be on the discovery channel!
Phew! Caught up on the Ranalah & all - amazing & wonderful, fizzing with enthusiasm & verve - brilliant & inspirational! ✨✨✨
Cream was my first thought. It looks the business Dom
Just put on it "Ranalah Ltd. Essex. England". That would be in keeping with its age.
Sublime, loved the journey and will definitely make an order when you are ready Dom. Regards, Nick Rodgers Sculptor
Amazing Dom! You must be so proud, as viewers I know we all are. The finished Ranalah looks so good. Well done and congratulations!
Thanks so much!
The cream lettering on the grey background looks beautiful. Well done!
Thank you!
Very nice Dom! Enjoyed the tour of the sandblasting set-up - Phil has a colorful rig! Agree with brushing as well. The outcome looked great as did the color. You can't be anything but proud of your work Dom!
I am chuffed! Thanks so much
Looking great Dom, fascinating journey that you have shared with us all, I'm glad all of your efforts have finally come together and it's great to see it complete, you should be proud of what you've done, look forward to your next ranalah instalment
Thanks so much, there’s more to come!
Yes it's Sunday that means a new video!
Absolutely fantastic Dom! Enjoyed the full journey and sad that it’s come to an end.
Sundays won’t be quite the same now. Once again Congratulations and good luck going forward.
Don’t worry there is a lot more more ranalah progress to come!
It has been a fascinating process to follow, driven by your enthusiasm. Regarding the plaque, a nod to the past is definitely needed, perhaps the year it was invented, the inventor's name where they lived and as you are part of its history going forward, you need some recognition on the plaque too
The Ranalah looks Fabulous, good choice of colours. I hope all goes well when you take No1 down to Geoff. We'll done Dom 😊👍
Been following the progress from the start they are looking fantastic hope they sell you should have asked to get the crane blasted to clean it up
Wonderful, love the colour choice. Hope you had a bit of Factor 50 on you too!!
Fantastic job Dom. A lot of time and work went into this project, but what a great product you’ve ended up with.
Well done.
Thank you very much
I think it's OK to use the website on a plaque. This is a Ranalah for the 21st century after all. They look wonderful finished in the grey and the lettering's nicely "laid back" in the cream. I've really enjoyed this series, especially since I've an engineering background.
Thanks Dom.
well done dom.
I would absolutely LOVE to get hold of a larger old Ranalah wheel machines. The school I went to in the UK, ( 55 years ago), had four that came from one of the WWII Spitfire factories. Although I doubt I could afford it. I think he means "purified air". Pure oxygen would kill you if you breathed for more than a short time resulting in shock lung. I also use a fresh air system. Nice compressor. I use an old 1956 LeRoi 4 over 4 tow behind compressor using 1" line at 175 psi. The gun is hand operated with a 'dead man' switch. Also can be used as a wert blaster. Any media from soda to steel shot.
It looks beautiful with cream lettering
Glad you like it!
Boom! You’ve made it happen! I hope someone will do the same for other obsolete fine British machinery.
I’m not sure I can afford to do it all again for a while!
Fabulous finished result Dom - looks like Wendy's had a super hair cut 🐶❤😊
The website would work on the plaques even though it is a bit modern. You bringing them back is all part of the history now and it would be very fitting. Like when historic buildings get repaired and they don't try to make the new bits look old
Great stuff Dom, congratulations! As for the plaque address in the past I have used a P.O. Box address that works well. Plus you could always include the website address as a back up. I still think the lettering should be red!!!!!
Awesome job dude 👏. And I want one of them blaster setups now 😍🤪
Another great video Dom.
Thanks so much
Well done Dom fanbloodytastic grey and cream spot on it looks original from the factory history returns
The blasting guy knows his stuff I’ve had a few disasters with blasting companies being to aggressive with the material 👍👨🏻🏭
Great looking piece of kit Dom. It must be a sod to move because it looks kinda top heavy. OK when bolted down of course. ✅
Love your progress with the ranalah project, but really wanting you to get on with the 356!!
Dominic I love your sharing of new technologies and have the specialist explaining the process. Much as I enjoy your conversation, it would be great if you let the proffesional do the explaining. I know you are doing your best to help us understand the process but please let him do the presentation and then ask questions. I hope you are not bothered by this comment I just wanted to listen to him and then get your input. I do love your work and passion for the work you do and the tributes to the expertise that play a part in your work. Best wishes and stay safe J.
Good call with the lettering colour - very classy! My thought was a charcoal grey but the lighter lettering looks smashing :)
Dom, What a masterful achievement.👍😁😎. I doubt that all, but a very few, can or will understand the significance of what a monumental accomplishment your success truly is. The final piece would be to see one of these residing in a shop where it would be doing the work it was created for. I have followed your journey on this from the beginning, and must say, it has been an enjoyable and educational experience.
The paint is spot on. Hope the camera can be helped with a little of your TLC. As always BE SAFE and all the best to you and yours.

Thank you so much for following along the journey with me, really appreciate the comment!
Looks great, very similar to the Ferguson Tractor grey.
It’s a bit lighter I think, close though!
I think the colour choice you did on the lettering is perfect it's subtle classical style. Looking forward to see what you expand the Ranalagh brand into. You could manufacture all things to do with panel work. Dollys, mallets, hammers, hand operated beading and cutting machinery, folding breaks if its made to the same style and high spec as the wheeling machines who wouldn't want to fill their shed/workshop with them.
I’d love to do that!
Really awesome project you have under taken. Wish I were in the market for one. Heck, with I knew how to use one... If you decide you want to spray those in the future. KG Industry's makes an air dry product that is single part and cures in 80 minutes. It's a DTM product and very reasonable priced for what it is. I use it and the baked pain they sell. It's beyond good stuff. Good luck with making them. Looks like a real beast.
Much preferer the cream colour, good choice
So pleased you chose cream for the lettering, looks really classy. With the stands on the horizon and expanding the Ranulph brand, I thought you could do a special really nice wooden tool chest to hold the wheels and tools used to adjust or change them. How about specially made Ranulph spanners?
Wow, another brilliant VLOG Dom. Hope u are successful with the selling of your Ranalahs 👍
