1931's Walt Disney Movie Projector - Restoration
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ย. 2022
- Here is a new video !
The Movie-Jecktor Company of New York manufactured home movie projectors, as well and grammophone/projector combinations in the mid-1930s.
They also created short films to be played in these projectors, with images printed on parchment paper, starring popular comic strips and animated characters, such as Mickey Mouse and Buck Rogers.
This particular model worked with a lightbulb and a handcrank (that was missing).
The Movie-Jecktor Co. produced just one film starring Alley and Ooola.
It was a really huge work I thought it would be easier but I wanted to do it well.
Some parts were missing I've had to create new ones.
Please watch till the end to see this rare movie projector in action !
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
Oh one last thing... To people saying this is fake, artificially aged. Go on eBay and check the recent sales ! :)
Thanks a lot for watching !

Thank you ! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
This was wonderful, I've never seen one of these before. My grandma had an old cinematograph when I was a kid. It only had 1 reel cartoon of betty boop with it. She only let us watch it once because she didn't want it to get ruined, so it was stored away in a safe. years later, her house flooded and it got ruined but she donated it to a museum along with the reel. This really brings back those great memories. Thanks!
Thanks to you. Glad it brings back good memories.
Only thing I plan on donating in this life is my dead body to whoever wants it after I’m gone….. I don’t mind donating to help animals though. Anything else your gonna be paying large for.
Thanks for this input. It‘s a reminder that we should enjoy and let others enjoy the things we own as long as we can, and not keep them away in storage for somebody else, or for it to be destroyed like in this case. I hope to never fall into that mentality your grandmother had. Would rather want everyone to create memories to keep for the rest of their lives.
Que lindo
It’s craptacular!
That was wonderful, what a great result! I found it somewhat emotionally moving. I guess it's because of what that projector did in its 'first lifetime', entertaining countless children (and adults). Thanks for bringing it back to life.
Thanks to you. I'm also moved when I read comments like yours.😊
@@leafofwinter3571 not all of them, they'd be in their 90s atleast, but that doesn't mean slightly younger ones couldn't have grown up with them as hand me downs :-) these things dont just dissapear
I don't know where you find all this cool stuff but am very grateful that you share them with us. Excellent work!
Thank you ! This one comes from eBay 👍🏻
I just said something similar lol. I gotta get on ebay. Never even used it before and don't know how it works. I'm old-school like this projector hahaha. This one's awesome
I feel the same too. THANK YOU. This is MAGIC💫
I dont know this machine. This is lovely. Thank
I'm from a country where it's currently impossible to order on eBay! Although I am interested in antique photographic equipment, and I really like many cameras that are not in Russia, but are in Europe or America, but, unfortunately, there is no way to buy them!
That cowboy cat is too adorable!
Finding the original logo image and making a sticker was the cherry on top.
I would be so interested in restoration channels making videos about what led them to restoration- because I look at these videos and think, not only do these people have thousands of dollars in machinery to do these restorations, but also know how to use them very well.
You guys get into everything from a bit of carpentry, a bit of electric work, mechanical work for sure, and even some graphic design.
I assume that takes many years to learn and probably a kind and patient mentor?
One of the things that worries me in recent years is the loss of knowledge of good craftsmanship for future generations.
Making online courses for all the different knowledge you guys have I think would be of interest to many.
I also wonder if you sell what you restore afterward.
Must be hard to sell something you worked so diligently on, even though I’m sure the money is good.
Thank you so much for all these kind words 😌🙏 You know I’m just doing those restos for my own collection. I usually don’t sell any of the restored items.
That was a excellent restoration. I can think of how long it has given anyone pleasure, but it's great to see the original films.
Thanks a lot ! Glad you enjoyed 😊
RESTORATION??? Give your head a shake.. This was a destruction of an antique.. You dont restore antiques by putting a 20th century paint job on them.. You leave the age, and the patina, and repair or replace the broken pieces.. They used Lacquer paint, not a hydrostatic plastic that is melted on. This is frigging disgusting
This is so beautiful that it brings tears to my eyes; it is unlike anything else and will always be treasured.
I didn’t even know these ever existed, very nice! I love watching these videos so that I can see a bit of the past come to life!!
Masterpiece. "The Mummy" has been resurrected. Bravo.
Haha yeah almost 100 years old
Not only have you shown your great talents, you have saved a piece of history. Great job!
Thank you very much !!
Incredible. That piece of History has fallen in the right hands. Thanks !
Thanks to you !
"I'll make a new one." Sure, lol... Your skill and craftmanship are amazing!
Thank you !! 😌🙏
Walt Disney was a true pioneer. One of the ones that changed the world.
I agree 😌👍
It always amazes me that the tabs on these old metal objects never seem to break! This was a very entertaining restoration. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. 💕
Thank you so much !! 🙌 There is a video on my channel (the JEP boat) where I broke almost all the tabs... I spent a couple days making new one 😟
Another beautiful restoration. One of the most complex yet maybe? Such a lovely toy that must have given so much enjoyment. 😊
In spite of the fact that this contraption has a 1931 patent date. 📅 😳 😒 😐 🙄 😕 📅
Your edits are amazing
Your camera work is wonderful
Your reconditioning work is so complicated and yet you take time to record and set up and over and over
thank you
are you a gemini by any chance?
Thank you very much for all these kind words 😌🙏 I’m a taurus 😉
Walt Disney would've been proud of you.
I still remember i bought one of these in 1935. Good old days
Imagine if this got copy claimed by Disney
I felt happy like a kid again just for a few moments while you showed the cartoon. Thank you.
Thank you 🙌Glad you enjoyed 😌
Absolute genius
Masterfully done, as ever. Always you do the best that can be done with what is available, respecting the original, compromising only where necessary. This is the true sign of a master artisan. 👍
Thanks ! 👍I always do my best... Glad you like it again. See you soon 😉
It's an amazingly complex toy for children!
How did you manage to find such a piece of history ? Beside, you did restored it perfectly well, truly, your skills would, in fact, never stop surprising me
Thank you so much 🙏 This projector comes from eBay 👍
You are a master artist. Not only can you repair but you can manufacture what is not there. That's what makes you a master of what you do. Keep up the good work.
Thank you ! 😌🙏🙌
Another Masterpiece, great to watch old movies.
SO AMAZING!!!!!!! I have never seen one of these before, but that was probably top of the line tech for 1931. Simply incredible. I love watching your restorations.
Thanks a lot Scott 👍🏻
i'd imagine some ghost of a kid in the 30s must really be beaming with joy at your masterful work
That was a beautiful Acappella with the polisher.
Like a few I've never seen one of those before and the work to restore and bring back to life was incredible. So much history from the past that have long been forgotten and some that find a new life. It's people like you that motivates me to do better work.
Maravilla de restauración amigo fantástico, saludos!!
Each of those frames is a Two Page Flip; I used to teach art and we made 2 page flips. Never thought they could be such a thing.
Not 8k oled but it didn’t worked so bad ! 😅👍
I’m nit sure which is more amazing. The restoration or the fact that this has been up for three months, you showed the film at the end, and Disney’s lawyers haven’t issued a take-down for it. Seriously tho, really enjoyed watching it, thx for sharing it.
I was expecting these to go for thousands when I just looked, you can pick them up for £100 over here. That’s what it means when people say priceless!
Man it was just pure joy seeing this restoration video THANKS
Thank you !! 😌🙌
These kind of restoration videos where you can tell its not fake just. Mesmerised
Thank you !! There are still a few people sayin’ it’s fake tho 😅
I hope that goes straight into a museum somewhere. Incredible work!
You killed me with the autofocus 😂😂 didn’t expect to have autofocus that item . Awesome restoration 👏
Thank you my friend ! 😉 I’m watching your vid right now 🤩
Your work is incredible and your restoration of these projects preserves a bit of history that maybe lost. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you !! 🙌
Love ❤️ it wow !! Most Kids now days just will never understand the excitement of not only get one of these as a gift wither it was your Birthday or for Christmas the joys of watching all the little pictures come to life on your wall or a sheet your Mother put up for you. Watching the films over an over again what fun. Thank you for restoring this ❤️ Projector. Awesome job. Thank you again.
So true 🙌Thanks a lot for watching and also commenting 😌👍🏻
I hope their minds will change.
0:57 I don't know why but there's a certain kind of feeling too this
This was an incredible restoration! Your amazing skill let us see something from the past that quite possibly could have been thrown away and forgotten… thank you !
Glad to hear that, thank you very much 👍
MAN, that was SO satisfying to watch! It's so soothing watching these almost 100 year old items come back to life!
Nice to hear that ! Thank you very much for your support 🙏
Thanks for showing the original picture from 1931. And of course a very good restoration
I sometimes do begin to wonder just; how many American adults; of all ages who were children, may ever remember this contraption? The people who were born from the mid 1960s, entire 70s, to the mid 80s, don't even much of this. Of what really existed. Ah yes this was, right long before our time, since we now live in a different era.
It looks crudely made. Modern items seem light years ahead, in terms of quality. Your restoration was nothing short of wonderful. Way better than when it was new.
Thanks a lot !🙌
Man, what a great job! Love that you even replaced the spooling catches on those films! I hope those films themselves are preserved as well.
Glad you enjoyed it ! Thank you ! I treasure the films😉
In our current throw away society, it is such a pleasure to see items from a bygone age revitslised. Furthermore, the fact that such craft ship and ingenuity existed decades ago delights me. I hope 100 years from now future generations smile at our legacy.
I hope so too ! Glad you like my work. Thank you so much !👍
I enjoy watching you powder paint more than spray paint, I don't know why...but maybe because of it's coverage ?
I just love watching you powder paint.
Awesome job!!! I love how you remake the missing items, it more authentic!!!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you !!🙌
Bro the memories I love your channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I miss Betty boop and Mikey mouse 🐭 I might be an 2000s kid but I remember those movies and tv shows❤ ❤❤❤ RESPECT ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks again for watching and commenting. Your support means a lot 🙏🙏🙏
This is the coolest thing Ive seen in the longest time! WOW! Simply WOW!!!! Super awesome job!
Nice to hear that ! 😊 Thank you very much for your support👍
Your love for restoration really beems through. ❤❤❤
One of my favorite restorations!
That‘s what we call a real flick. Excellent work again!
Thank you so much ! 🙌
The camera belongs in a museum, to bad the other films are in such bad shape. Again the close-ups ❤️ Wonderful restoration. Have a nice weekend.
Thank you !! I’ll find a way to restore them 😌
Disney must hire this guy
It is videos like this that make me love the channel! It is a complex piece of obscure apparatus, and a wide range of tools and techniques are used in the restoration. 👏
Yes, very complex 😀😀😀 Thank you, Glad you enjoyed it !
If only we could find someone to restore that film. ❤️
This someone exists 😉🙌
Die sind ein wirklicher Künstler. Ganz tolle Leistung so schöne Dinge für die Nachwelt aufzubereiten und zu erhalten.
Man, ya’ go to all this work and then in another 90 years you’ve got to do it all over again! 😂
🤣🤣🤣
@@TheFabrikhope your grandchildren will carry on😆
Awesome. I don’t know why youtube sent me to this video and I have been watching it amazed by the good and perfect work. A toy about 100 years old and now it is like new 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Congrats!!
Thank you so much ! Chance sometimes does things well. If you liked this video please subscribe to my channel. I have restored many other cool old items 🙂🙂🙂
THAT NEW HANDLE WAS JUST AMAZING!… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks a lot 😊
Loved th restoration and the Ambrose cartoon!
Love how the Mickey film at the start is perfectly fine
Ah. Sheet metal and nails. Tetanus central. I love watching these though. I get a feeling of satisfaction when I watch it transform and see what it USED to be compared to what it turns into.
one of your best yet! I know that trick with the sawdust and epoxy. Also there's one with using ammonia to get wood stains to penetrate wood better. You're good on a lathe! great stuff. I've got some of that super fine old wet & dry paper. My late father used to work for an engineering company and often brought home some really cool abrasive papers.
Thanks a lot Robin 🙌 My first try on the lathe 😅 Glad you enjoyed 👍🏻
People like you just have nerves of steel to work with machinery so close like that.
😌👍 Patience is the key 😌
Just found this channel. Glad I did! You restore some unique stuff. Alot of the other restore channels do things like old hanmers and cleavers. Which is cool, don't get me wrong, but I like seeing stuff like this. Complex, old school toys and machines. Definetly my cup of tea. Awesome job, boss!
Thanks again and welcome on my channel 😉
The ending presentation was cute, thank you for all the cranking!!
Wow. That was fantastic. The level of detail you went to, even with the reel, to then have the film showed at the end. True crafts work that, absolutely brilliant
Glad you enjoyed it ! Thank you very much !
Hi, another outstanding restoration, its a real pleasure watching you put your magic touch to these projects. Cheers, Paul.
Thanks a lot Paul ! Glad you enjoyed this new vid. See you soon 😉
Once again, you didn't let us down!! Beautiful Resto of A Dear Piece of History!!!! You are a MASTER at your craft!!
Thank you very much !! My pleasure 😌🙏
Wonderful restoration
This was literally art. Absolutely enjoyable to watch. It always impresses me how many different skills you possess in order to bring something like this back, and it's great to see it in action. Well done! Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
Wow ! Glad to hear that ! Thanks to you for watching and commenting 🙏
Loved the nickel plating. ❤
Good job! I was owner of one this kind of projector when I was a kid, old memories back to me! Thanks for show it!
Thanks to you for watching and commenting.🙏 Glad it brings back good memories !
The effort and detail and care that goes into restoring one of these wonderful pieces is just astonishing to watch. You’re truly a master at your craft and I commend your obvious dedication and passion with which you conduct all of your efforts. Really wonderful. A great restoration and a really cool video, thanks :)
Wow ! Very nice to heart that. Thanks to you for watching and commenting ! 🙏
A true master. Great comment btw
Whatever kid owned that must’ve been like Richie Rich. I bet he had magnificent trousers
Beautiful out come of that restoration good for many more years to come 👍🏆
Yeah! This is pure art!!!!!! 🤩👍🏼
Thanks a lot 👍
@@TheFabrik your welcome!
Outstanding restore! 👍
Thanks a lot 👍
Simply stunning how you bring this beaten up piece of history back to life. I'm guessing some of those old film reels aren't exactly PC these days. :) The powder coating adds a real nice and even coat on those surfaces and a real touch of class.
Thank you !! 🙌
@@Flavum you’re kidding? Maybe he should have used old timey tools and arc lamps instead of halogen lights? Perhaps he should have filmed it on 8mm film stock, developed it, and then edited it with a razor and scotch tape? Good grief. It’s a choice he’s taken to restore these items. They’re beautiful. Leave it at that.
@@gromit1996 i don’t remember his name but there is a guy on TH-cam who does that :) restorating stuff with mechanical tools. no electricity.
Probably not lol. I remember seeing one where the brand sticker logo had a... rather gross caricature of someone riding an elephant. Still, it's a nice piece of history and it's great to see them brought back into repair!
Great restoration! Amazing the use of metals and wood, nowadays, anything that can be plastic...is.
Wonderful restorence! I'm even surprised that that still exists!
Wow! What a treasure. Enjoyed watching this very much.
Glad you enjoyed !😀
I wish that they had re-released this movie projector this year.
It's understandable that this is something that's really shot looking, which needs work to be revamped. Since Walt Disney was however still, going on strong back then during the great depression era. 😔
I love the history of Cinema, so that's really amazing to see something with that heritage brought back to life.
Glad you enjoyed it. 😉
Excellent job! Congratulations!
It’s amazing you were able to restore this great piece of history really amazing 👍
Thanks a lot ! 🙌🙌🙌
good restore👍👍
I have never seen anything like this before just wow
it may look even better than when it was brand new.
Splendid job restoring the old Mickey Mouse movie projector. It looks much better and works like a charm, too. Great work.
Always so meticulous so delicate so precise I love it
So amazing to see this. They don’t make toys like this anymore.
That was cool🥰. We had a Viewmaster as kids but I've never seen anything like this. That's from even before my Mama was born!
Gotta say, I really love watching these restorations, but sometimes they become monotonous….the split screen of clowning up all of the smaller parts was absolutely incredible!!!!! It may seem something trivial but it really made this so much more enjoyable!!!! KUDOS to you my friend!!!!
Yeah thank you very much !! 🙌
So flippin’ cool.
Just amazing, even metal Spinning which is almost a lost art in England these days, I love your attention to detail. My father was a toolmaker from Rolls Royce and he instilled in me, if you do a job , you should do everything to the best of your ability. No cutting corners. I can see you get great pleasure from what you do. Thank you and I have subscribed.
Thank you so much 🙏 You know I just do restoration, someone made the job before. I mean all these parts were created and hand made 🙌 Most part of my job is cleaning but I really do appreciate your comment. My dad told me too the key element is to give the best… Thanks again and welcome aboard 😃
This restoration is another example of your skill mon ami . To coin a phrase , " nice one ". Thank you .
Thank you !! 😌👍🏻
