Today's renovation will be about a subject that I had no idea what it was for 2 years, I asked different people, but no one even knew. When I posted the photos on Facebook, I was in a hurry to find the identity of this subject. Friends began to write various designs, but it wasn't until Vladimír Zolin came up with a picture of a similar device and information that it was a press for gluing soles and everything started to make sense. So I wrote a question to the shoe museum, where they confirmed it to me :) And the renovation could begin :) Thank you Vladimír :)

I am almost 70 years old, yet find myself with the excitement of a small child watching your video's. Thank you!
Wow! Never in a million years would i have guessed & I’m 65 and worked in a shoe repair shop in 1977 in Northern California! Cool! 🥾🥾🥾
Thanks :)
Yes it was a simple shoe machine used by the shoe maker to press the sole of the shoes, I am a shoe maker last 30 years ago in marikina the shoe capital city in the philipine
A beautiful technical solution to the problem of uniform distribution of force over the area using a liquid.
Great job.
Wow, thanks Angrej :) Radek
That belongs on permanent show! What a wonderful restoration!
Thanks :)
Very cool!!! I’ve seen the modern version of this, so seeing a vintage version is a real treat!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much Samatha :) Radek
My father-in-law was a shoe repair man, and while I did not recognize this device, I was almost certain it was a sole press just from the shape of it. You do a great job restoring all the different types of things. Thank you for sharing.
We are pleased Sherry, thank you for watching.
Impressive restoration!! I worked in a shoe factory way back when I was 19 years old. As soon as I saw the shape of the a foot on the pressing area I knew what it was. In fact I operated a machine that did the exact same thing.
Great! Thanks Jeff :) Radek
What was it for. I don't understand why the bottom needs to be stretchy if it was just to clamp and glue the sole together. Is it not to shape the leather?
But it does have a thicker rubber that wouldn't stretch as much,was it because so it could fit different shoes that may have a different curve to the sole?
@@holohulolo I think you may be right with the idea that it’s to fit different shaped or sized soles. In a factory the bottoms are usually set up for a specific type of shoe. Excellent observation! They wouldn’t have had any kind of foam to put underneath the press. I was wondering what that water was for as well! That might be it.
there are other sizes of this tool.This is one of the kit
What I love the most about what you do, is that not only restore the function but you make it beautiful again.
Thank you so much Pamela :) Radek
Amazing tool and a great look into history....beautiful restoration my friend...best wishes, be well, and a big hug for little Mona.
Thank you so much my friend :) Radek
Something for making shoes. Not sure beyond that. Beautiful restoration!
Shoes for what? A damn space walk

Well that was an excellent way to get me to watch to the very end. I avoided reading comments.
Great, thanks Charles :) Radek
Never seen this tool before. You don't leave any room for improvement. Excellent job!
Thank you so much Shahid :) Radek
Enjoying the show
I'm glad Kevin, thanks :) Radek
As someone who makes bespoke shoes, this tool is priceless! Evenly pressing soles is challenging with multiple curves on the sole without the more commonly used hydraulic bellows style press usually used-too expensive a piece of equipment for a small hand maker. I so want this!
Thank you so much :)
I really didn’t have a clue what it was until you showed at the end what it was loved the restoration job you did on it though
Thank you very much Jeanette :) Radek
same here 😂

Thank you so much Jude :) Radek
A superb restoration!!
Thanks James :) Radek
Just beautiful!! I knew press but I couldn’t figure out what for, became obvious the second I saw the shoe. Awesome craftsmanship
Your both very gifted people who love to restore historical things very interesting
Thank you my friends :) Veronica and Radek
Excelente trabajó 👍 como siempre. No traduzco para ver hasta el final para que sirve la máquina y siempre quedo sorprendido de como conoces su funcionamiento y piezas cómo si vos fuiste el que la inventó. Saludos 👋 a tu bella familia.
Gracias Roberto, que tengas un buen día :) Radek
Ni yo tampoco.
I’ve said it before, I just love these weird things you present to us. So exciting to see something different 😃 And the result is always stunning.👏🏼
I'm glad, thank you . Radek
Krásná obnova! Upřímně jsem nevěděl, co to je! Udělali jste dobře, abyste ukázali objekt s jeho provozem děkuji..👏👏👏👏🌹
Děkuji za komentář v mém jazyce :)

What dedication to bringing items back to life....great job!
Thanks
Beautiful work on the shoe device. Can one imagine making this today 2023?
Thank you for the compliment. I have a feeling that various smaller shoemaking and repair shops still use these similar tools today.
I typically don't watch many restoration videos but when I saw you clean those acme threads with a wire brush before trying to move the handle, i knew you were worth subscribing to. That device was nicely restored. I just subscribed so I can see more of your videos when they come out.
Wow, thank you, I appreciate that Robert :) Radek
Wonderful restoration of an ingenious machine. Cheers!
Thank you so much Juan :)
The care you put into your restorations is impressive, good job
Thank you so much Topo :) Radek
Yea!!!! I guessed right! I has no idea what it was, but because of the curvature and the fact that what ever it was used for was meant to not mar the object, I thought something for shoes. Very nice. Excellent job as always.
Thank you :) Radek
No I don't (know what it is) . . . great job . . . fabulous finish on the wood
Thanks Mike :) Radek
Ну,как всегда! Тупо смотрел и хлопал глазами до тех пор,пока в кадре не появились обувные колодки и ботинок...И только тогда допетрил что это ж обувный формовочний пресс!!!

@@VeradonaRestoration я вот только непонял, а жидкость для чего была залита в нижнюю часть пресса?🤔

Wonderful work. It looks like a great piece of industrial art now. Well done
Thank you Kelvin :) Radek
Bonjour Radek première fois que je vois ce genre d'appareil belle restauration .
Je n'ai pas non plus pu comprendre ce que c'était avant 2 ans :) Bonne journée Jean Louis :) Radek
Yes, it is a sole press for crepe (gum shoe) soles. My dad operated one as well as the edge trimmer that followed next in the assembly line. It was a great place to work. Quiet machinery, the smell of leather, and a fresh breeze blowing across the one floor factory. I worked beside him summer of '69.
Thank you for your story :) Radek
Hi, @born2soon . QUESTION: What are gum shoes?
@@Headroom23 If I remember correctly, it was a term for rubber soles shoes. The term came up in the old literature, calling priavet detectives as "gum shoes" because rubber soles were more quiet. I hope this helps.
@@TheParkAttendant Yes. Thank you for the lesson.
How did it work?
Cool. I'd have never guessed in a hundred years
thanks for the upload.
Thanks for watching :)
Yea I guessed it might be something to do with shoes. You still make things look better than when they are first made GREAT WORK
Thank you :) Radek
WOW. I was hoping it was going to be something he was going to cook with. I have never seen an old shoe form/shaper. Great job, love the colors.....
Thank you so much Sherrie :) Radek
Another painstaking restoration, with the expected fantastic results! Even if you had not been able to identify its use, it would have been a project worthy of your talents.
Thank you for your beautiful words George :) Radek
So that's how it's done!!!
I've been watching videos on how to make your own shoes, and I haven't been able to find anything to show how the soles were glued on so well. There were plenty that had stitched soles, but I wanted to know how to do these as well.
Someone will want that thing!!!
I did think it was a mold of some sort, but not that it was for shoes. Very interesting!
Thanks Sonja :) Radek
I thought it had something to do with a shoe but I didn’t know what. Beautiful restoration. You are an artist
Thank you so much :) Radek
I would have been super pissed if this video ended and you never showed what it was for. Great resto.
Based on your comment, I learned that you lasted until the very end! If others did the same .... Lol Thanks Ahmed :) Radek

Some of us self centered A holes used the fast forward feature. I'm not saying I'm an A hole. Just that I have one. (wink)
Outstanding restoration and the presentation with detail of your mastery (self taught you say?) only complements the video editing.
Hat tip.
Stunning restoration
Thanks :) Radek
I expected to see your wife using that in the kitchen 🤣 Thanks for another relaxing and informative video!
I thank you :) Radek
The project was awesome. And knowing what the devise was used for made my day. Cause history was and still is my most favorite subject.
I'm glad Reuben, thank you :) Radek
Привет Вероника, привет Радек) как ваши дела? Как настроение?) на самом деле в ваших видео часто до последнего не понимаешь, что за вещь вы реставрируете, а в этом случае, так подавно) Благодарю за интересное видео)

@@VeradonaRestoration Спасибо, у меня то же нормально)
It's a beauty now!
Thank you so much Joy :) Radek
Reminds me of the old 1970's TV show The Liars Club. Someone would bring an unusual obscure object on stage, place it before the 3 person celebrity panel and then each celebrity would take turns explaining what the object is and how it was used. Only one of the 3 crazy stories would be correct.
Yes, I know him. There was a similar show in my country, it was instructive. Have a nice day Rob. Radek
I am 69 years old. Until I saw this video, I had neither seen nor heard of such a device. Amazing!
Thank you!😎
Thank you :) Radek
That item had no sole until it was refurbished
I don't know what it is but I am sure it looks better then it ever did , awesome job
I didn’t knew about that. Very nice result!👍🏻congrats 🍻

@@arsheenasif696 well that's what I thought too!
absolutely gorgeous restoral! well done
Thank you so much Michael :)
what is the water for ? nice restoration.
I think it's to equalize the pressure but I'm really not sure. This is the first time I ever seen one of those.
@Vulpes I was also wondering if it could have been fed with steam pressure (the plug complicates this theory), also providing heat to cure the glue? But I have no boot maker knowledge, and those who do may know if it was just filled with water.
@Vulpes Yeah, that's what i thought. Maybe for not as rigid shoes?
Fantastic result. Amazing job as always Radek. Take care 😃👍🏼
Thanks David :) Radek
Someone has already identified the machine as a shoe sole maker
@Camden Kaleb yea, no one cares.
Mesmerizing. Thank you so much for showing how it works. And...your English? It's beautiful.
Thank you Bobbie for an encouraging comment :) Radek
I knew what it was, I have three in my drawer right now
Al final era una horma para zapatos. Nunca me lo hubiera imaginado. Quedó preciosa.
:)
Agree, something bout shoes!
I don't even know what that is but you sure did make it beautiful, more beautiful then it ever was when it was first made LOL
Thank you Debra, a sample of what it is is at the end of the video :)
I'm gonna second whoever else said that this was powered by steam. The heat from the steam would set the glue applied to the sole of the shoe. This is why there was water and oil in it.
I just love the old machinery and techniques. Great job!
Thank you Jerry Lee :) Radek
Interesting, I made a shoe repair like that at one time but for a weight I put the shoe on the driveway and parked the car on top of it for the night.
Oh, and important note, my foot was not inside of the shoe!
Lol, thanks Tisha :) Radek
Lost for words mate 😳
My favourite restoration to date, seriously, like....wow 👋🏾

Looks like a sole making press for shoes or boots.
Great job. And you proved that it works!

One of the most interesting videos ever. I didn't pick what it was until the end. Great restoration job.
Thanks Stewart :) Radek
Oh awesome!!! I seriously love your channel, what fun.
Thank you so much for posting! Take care, stay healthy!
Thank you so much Dee :) Radek
I dont get why theres liquid inside it.
I have same wonder
I am still confused about the liquid. Don't get it. Nice job though.
The liquid is there to provide an even pressure to the whole sole of the shoe. If it was a hard surface, some of the glue would not be in compression. The water therefore provides under compression, a full area of equal pressure over the whole sole, not just one part of it at the point of contact. The wooden insert opposes the area, thus evening the pressure throughout.
@@markgoddard2560 thank you for explaining it which now makes total sense. Very clever gadget.
@@markgoddard2560 Именно так.
I had no clue. I thought it had something to do with making and inner saddle for a horse. Boy was I way off. Fantastic. Nice job too.
Thank you Troy :) Radek
Perfect perfect perfect ... I was waiting for sanding and polishing screws but no problem that was perfect anyway
Thanks Ahmed :) Radek
No clue but it's interesting.
nicest one I've ever seen.
It's for pressing leather soles for shoemaking.
During the whole video, I could not imagine what the apparatus was meant for. But now it makes complete sense, very ingenious. Thanks fir sharing Radek!
Thank you Harko :) Radek
For future reference, you can always go to reddit with this kind of questions. There's a subreddit called r/whatisthisthing where people solve these mysteries every day :D
Or the time honored approach on the internet. Make a purposefully false claim, and you'll be sure to get corrected by dozens immediately.
This was as enjoyable to watch as I'm sure it was for you to refurbish it. Thanks for the enjoyment.
I thank you Reuben :) Radek
4:55 pour a couple shots of that - I bet it has aged to perfection
Industrial products made during the industrial revolution were to last long for life long. Thereby, all the products were very strong and robust. This is why Veradona Restoration was able to restore this tool. This lifelong concept did not damage the environment. Fashion-oriented modern products are for few years and models are changing frequently creating environmental pollution. This restoration is excellent. if you treated all the nuts and bolts also, this becomes perfect. LONGLIVE THIS TECHNOLIGIST.
Thank you :)
Does the “Brno” stand for the city of Brno?
ano je to tak

Brilliant restoration. Well done.
Thanks Mark :) Radek
OK, you had me watching till the end!!! I couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was for. Then I saw the shoe in the last couple of frames. Great resto!!!
Thank you Steve for enduring it until the end :) Radek

Да ,умеете удивить , пока не увидел ботинок не мог понять - что это ? Уникальный агрегат 👍 Удачи, новых находок .С меня как обычно 👍
Спасибо большое, друг :) Радек
Was a shoe maker and shoe repair guy for forty-some years. Saw one of those in the back of the shop where I started. The owner had thrown it back there after a more "modern" type came out - in 1957. They lost the rubber sheet and went to a rear (heel) and forepart presser foot, and the rubber sheet was replaced with a denser rubber pad, so same concept, but also had an actual right and left presser mechanism, and you increased the force with a pull-down arm that locked against a stanchion with gear-teeth to lock the bar into. It worked a charm.
Thank you for the explanation :) Radek
Enthralled to the very end, excellent restoration👏👍
Thank you Graeme lasted until the end of the video :) Radek
Used one for many years in my job as Surgical Shoe Maker at local hospital

So I'm happy, thank you :) Radek
@@VeradonaRestoration You're welcome Radek!!
Yay! I figured it out! At first I was thinking something from saddle maker shop, and that didn't compute. then I thought of boots! (sprain my arm patting myself on the back!) Tip-off was the soft surfaces and guard for pressing something leather or such without marking or cutting it...
Good job :))
Awesome job and attention to detail👍🗽🇺🇸
Thank you Johnny :) Radek
I immediately recognized it as a leather tool. But I couldn’t place it. Thank you so much.
Cool, thanks :)
I was guessing until the very end, but finally settled on it being some sort of object to do with forming/shaping leather equipment (like saddles or yokes) with a press. It was totally for shaping some other thing, obviously! Beautiful restoration!
Thanks :) Radek
Lovely, thanks for posting this.
I thank you :)
Nice one Guys! You had me stumped there!

It's really interesting, I realized at the end that it was originally used for shoe repair. Thank you for such a great video, you are awesome!
Thanks for watching until the end :)
