I'm always amazed how many TH-camrs spend 5 minutes pockmarking a surface in a sandblasting cabinet just to spend an hour and a half polishing the same surface afterwards. The thickness of the metal will, of course, have been reduced by half a millimetre.
Good restoration. The coils are not directly commoned. The first coil is terminated at terminals 1&2, and the second coil to terminals 3&4. The metal link (2&3) commons the coil. That is how the original is.
Currently this piece doesn't have much function, but a good current function is to connect it to an alarm clock in a way that amplify the sound of the same. For a college student this would be perfect: it's not something that wakes up a college student after a semester ends!
I am trying to restore an old 1970's sears solid O2X welding torch. My problem is I can only find them complete. I only want parts and the front panel emblem. Any ideas where to look for parts? I've tried ebay, amazon
I've always wondered, what is the purpose of the yellow/blue passivation? Is it aesthetic? I always like the bright white zinc and then it turns yellow 😂
@@AJRestoration Interesting!!! Thank you!! Sorry for dragging you back to such an old video, I'm in the middle of rewatching everything. Keep up the good work!!!
You connected the magnets wrong, so the magnets now work against each other, why the bell doesn't have the most effective sound. What you need to do, is to swap the connection of the second magnet. The second magnet is supposed to be wired "backwards", so when the alternating current goes into the bell, the first magnet will pull the tab, and the second magnet will push the tab, and then vice versa. If you swap the connections of the second magnet, you will get a much stronger sound.
It's a nice job. But I'm not sure why you did the wiring with it mounted on the board. Would have been easier to wire and then assemble on the board, IMO.
nice ! although I have to say that I don't think the powder coating is a good choice, because it,s to modern, I would rather have seen some kind of enamel.
Beautiful video. Enjoyed it. Love the calls of the African birds in the background. They provide a sweet soundtrack.
Thank you very much!
Beautifully done, congratulations
Thank you so much 😀
look at the thickness of the metal used on that. today, everything would be plastic
another nice restoration, AJ.
Thank you very much! Yes they don't make it like they used to.
Very nice job. Will await the magneto restoration !!!
You and me both!
Cool project 👍 cleaned up nicely. I love the shiny brass bells. Job well done. Thanks for sharing AJ
I read that as shiny brass balls...
Me too haha
Great job on the restoration! The reflection in the bells reminded me of a line from the song "Word Up" LOL
So true haha.Thank you very much!

Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Nice restoration
Thanks!
Nicely done. Looking forward to the magneto restoration. 🙂

half a millimeter? There is no way that much material is removed. maybe a tenth of a millimeter, and that's being generous.
nice job👍👍
Thank you very much!
Very Impressive project
Beautiful work, as always.
Car wax on brass prevents tarnishing.
this is so nice.Such a nice ring...at first I thought the magneto was a pencil sharpener! silly me
I thought of the song ring my bell by Anita ward while you were working on this Bell alert system for the telephone.
Great job, I really enjoyed watching, thanks 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Random Projects Tube👍
Cool project, well done.😊
Wel gedaan. Pragtig 👌
Baie baie dankie!

This is a masterpiece. Congratulation from Vietnam.😉👍🍺

Or use it as a doorbell

I have no idea, sorry.
@AJ Restorations thanks anyways.
At 8:13 what is in the 'Acid Pickle' please, Hydrochloric acid/hydrogen chloride
You hook that to your cell phone?
Ótimo trabalho.👏👏👏🇧🇷
Thank you very much!
I've always wondered, what is the purpose of the yellow/blue passivation? Is it aesthetic? I always like the bright white zinc and then it turns yellow 😂
The passivation seals and cures the zinc coating so it lasts longer, the blue and yellow is purely aesthetic but both does the same thing.

I liked it this way, it was just more open and easier to access. It felt natural to wire it like that.
@@AJRestoration good enough explanation. Thanks for replying.
Электрические магниты делал другой мастер?
nice !

I hate enamel paint, if I can, I avoid it.
@@AJRestoration, real enemel is more from that era, just my opion, nothing more.
Sounds a bit windy at your place the day you filmed this. Lol.
0:05 it looks like mickey mouse 😁
Nooooo!. You should speed up the 5 painful minutes of slowly unscrewing screws, not the sandblasting!. It's the other way round!!!. 🤣🤣
Yep. If you want to go slow on something, do it with the sandblasting. The screws can be sped up!
Aye guys kinda funny
That belly button seem high up lol
👍👍👍👍👍🇧🇷
Nice job bro❤️👍
Thanks 🔥
Nice restoration
