Egg Scale Restoration - Uncovering The Secrets Of An Antique Prototype!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ม.ค. 2025
- In this restoration video, you will see me restoring an antique egg scale. The egg scale looks like an epoch prototype because, on the dial, it is written that it was produced in Krakow and that the weight wasn't verified/legalized.
The beautiful antique kitchen tool is made of galvanized sheets with beautiful brass parts. I tried to keep an antique look and preserve the marks of time that are working to prove its age/authenticity. I removed only the prominent sharp marks that resulted from an earlier repair. Such scales can be found in a meager number, or sometimes unique. So, they need to be preserved. The dial was in pretty good shape, so I've only washed it with a soft brush. This part can be considered as the ID/authenticity certificate of the scale.
The restoration process took me almost a week due to too many pieces to restore/repair. I used only food-graded paint.
Making a new egg-shaped stand was fun, and dealing with so many holes in the water tank was quite a challenge, as you probably saw already.
I hope I have caught everything, but if you have any questions, you can comment, and I'll get back to you!
Cheers! Johnny.

You did a great job on this scale! I've never seen one like it before!
Dopiero teraz zauważyłem, że jesteś Polakiem! 😮 Jestem w szoku! 😮 Chyba jedyny Polski restoration kanał. Jestem dumny i gratuluję talentu. Pozdrawiam 😊
Jest polakiem? Sama się zastanawiałam, a kojarzę że było coś o Francji w jednym z filmików?
W odcinku o maselnicy używał Polskiej śmietany 😊 więc Polak
Вы шикарный мастер и реставратор. Удачи Вам.
Thank you! 🙂
The googly eyes were a cute touch.

Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed watching.
Naprawdę jestem zaskoczony faktem że jesteś polakiem a oglądałem twoje nagrania przez dłuższy czas 😮😊.
Чем мне нравится этот автор, так это тем, что иногда реставрирует всякие загадочные вещи.
Excellent restoration of a rather unusual object... A thought for the hens of the time, who had to try hard to lay eggs of the right size and weight...!
Very nice 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
niezłe, nawet nie wiedziałem że takie u nas robili :)
9:41 осторожно! Винт, удерживающий резец не затянут! Это может привести к вылету резца и серьёзной травме!
That screw doesn't hold the cutter, it is next to it.
@@rustyshadesrestorationдаже если винт не удерживает резец, если он выкрутится полностью, то может попасть на патрон, тогда уже сам полетит, со страшной скоростью. Всё равно опасно.
Ausgezeichnet ! ( Egg-cellent ! ) 🤩
😇❤
Would some kind of internal waterproof paint or covering helped future leaks?
That was a particular metal putty/filler
At home in France we find quail eggs in the trade, if there are also at home in Poland you should have made the first try with one of this lol
2:24 очень похоже на патину.
Lindo trabalho, parabéns
Obrigado!
Are there any special or different precautions you take when lead is present as opposed to non-lead paint?
Yes, I'm not sandblasting the piece because it can contaminate the cabin or even the whole workspace.
Are you doing anything different in your process once you detect lead?
Yes, I'm not sandblasting the paint. First, I have to remove it, and then it is ok to sandblast.
An egg shaped congratulations its Brilliant
Thank you!
11:00 резьба на этих винтах не предназначена для вкручивания в древесину!

Хорошая работа!! А что делать, если тест на свинец положительный?
One would use paint stripper, gloves and a mask/respirator instead of sanding or sand blasting so it does not become dust and breathed in. Lead is very dangerous to breathe in, also dangerous if it enters a cut or wound and gets in one's bloodstream.
That's right ✅️
@@rustyshadesrestoration Спасибо!
Hello, can I ask you what is the name of that sander you used at 4.min 40 sec? For a long time I have been looking for it. Thx 🙂
"Dremel Drum Sander"
Круто 😊😊😊😊
GooTran: Co daje wypalenie górnej płyty po usunięciu farby, a przed piaskowaniem?🤔😺
What does blow-torching the top plate after stripping the paint and before sand-blasting do?🤔😺
Drying, otherwise, the sand will stick to it.
@@rustyshadesrestoration Dziękuję! Thank you! 🙏😸
Egg-cellent work
Thank you!!! 😄
Помню, пришлось мне ремонтировать алюминиевую ёмкость, для реактивов. Она была вся в дырках, как швейцарский сыр. Паяльник мне не помог, от слова совсем. Пришлось тщательно зачистить поверхность, залепить дырки с обратной стороны, чтобы туда не попал припой, взять специальный флюс, пруток, которым паяют трубки у холодильников и газовую горелку. Естественно, нужно было соблюдать осторожность. Получилось очень хорошо.
Do you not need to test the dial head for lead 12:48 ??? Like you did with the base. Or not because the dial head did not have any paint on it??
I test for lead only if I have to remove the paint because I need to know if I can sandblast it directly or not.

Дякую. Дуже дякую за працю. Дякую за українську.
😊
Why lead test is needed? How it changes your work?
Lead is awful for health if it is inhaled or touched with a small wound on your hands/fingers. I'm making the test to know if I can sandblast it (if I do this and the paint has lead, I risk contaminating the blasting cabinet or even the all the work place if there is a leak).
Did you consider copying the aluminium damper for authenticity? Or did you think that it was pointless as the pointer seems to be critically damped anyway?
I just have to ask...what type chicken laid the egg with eyes... lol Thumbs Up!
😁
👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍🥃🥃🥃
I'd be willing to bet the metal itself on the tank is actually tin with lead in it. That era many products including canned foods were made with leaded tin. It's why you couldn't eat food that had been in the can to long.
Awesome Restoration ❤️ but buddy powder coating please powder coat everything 💫
Thank you! In the following projects, maybe I'll use it, but for this one, I couldn't because if I put the water tank in oven, my repairs will melt.
🙏🤗👍🇻🇪

I don't understand the purpose of this tool, why would somebody need to weigh an egg ?
Farmers or Co-ops who sell fresh eggs from their chickens would use this tool. The scales used today are electronic; however the use of a scale was brought about by consumer demand for "large" eggs. 🙂
In order to sell eggs, their weight had to be determined somehow, i.e. their class.
I see, makes sense, thanks for the reply
"Weight an egg" or lay an egg. Sounds the same, almost.
I'm surprised that you didn't add a rubber coating of some sort to the inside.
Looks like Sharkfin
Кстати, если уж речь зашла о яйцах. В моём городе разворовали крупные птицефабрики и подняли цены, на яйца. Ненавижу партию жуликов и воров.
Needle pin should be pointed exactly at zero. Please calibrate scales again 😏✌
There goes my cigar dehumidifier guess.

Super Uber
nice job but if you are going to call it a restoration you nee to put it back to as original as possible you changed the color so it is a resto mode not a restoration. and you did not put the nickel finish on it either
Please explain what is the purpose of the lead test? What if it's positive? Is it dangerous? What is the value of this knowledge?
i assume mostly to avoid sandblasting leaded paint thus creating a breathing hazard if he ever has to remove the blasting compound or his cabinet has a leak or whatever
That's right ✅️
