Antique Chisel Restoration
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- I have been wanting a wide, chunky chisel for ages. Their weight and size make them a perfect tools for precise paring and cleaning up joinery. Naturally, I couldn't pass on this beauty when I found it buried in a bucket full of crappy broken tools at my favourite junk shop.
On close inspection I realised that it was made by Peugeot Frères. I couldn't find out in what period this was made, but I think it may be pretty old. I didn't want to turn it into a mirror finish high-gloss tool, so I flattened the back to make it usable and otherwise only sanded off the worst dings and dongs so that it becomes comfortable to use. I turned a handle from a nice piece of plum and didn't put a metal ring at the end - I'm not going to hammer this one.
The resulting tool is very sharp and comfortable to use and I think it looks really good. But judge for yourself.

That plum wood is gorgeous
The plumb wood looks great!
Beautiful work think you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Look's great friend, love that wood , Stay Safe now !!!.
Nice restoring of such a very nice chisel. Looks amazing... Thumbs Up!
Great job. Handle a bit plain and I thought you might have used the second half of the pipe fitting for the end. You didn't overheat the steel and you kept everything square and flat. I would be proud to own and use your chisel. Thank you for the excellent job, you did yourself proud.
Thanks! I actually wanted a plain handle without a ferrule in the back so that it feels good in the hand.
Very nice job!!!!
Nice blade. Love all the inscriptions. Resto is not bad. I think i would drill the threads out of the ferrule. Also, for fitting the handle to the blade i would recommend the method where you use the tang as though it were a drill bit, drilling into the handle to achieve the perfect hole profile. So you would drill the tang in till you are about 10mm away from the ferrule, then ram it home the rest of the way with a mallet.
Still, not a bad effort.
Hey, thanks. I‘ll try the thing with using the tang as a drill bit when I get the chance.
Great work and nice handle
Very nice job, thank you.
Those curls at the end!
Nice way to save an old pipe fitting!
Amazing stuff 👍👍👍😉
Absolutely mint !!
That’s beautiful wood you’ve chosen there. 😀
But no rubber gasket between ferrule and Chisel steel? 😯
I use epoxy glue to stop it all moving as well.
But I’ve gotta find me some plum wood! That finish looks amazing. 👍🏻🏴
Thanks! I was really lucky with that piece of wood. It was my first time with plum, as well. I think it is best to have a tight fit between the wood and the tang of the chisel without anything in between. But I guess that’s a matter of taste.
Nicely done and a substantial tool to last another 140 years! That Plum wood grain and color is beautiful and should be hard enough for a chisel handle. Thanks for bringing back a very nice old tool!
well i like this
아무생각없이 보다보면 끝까지 보게 됨 ㅋㅋ
Beautiful wood... A mirror finish wouldn't hurt though with such a beautiful handle
What brand is the sharpening guide that you use for the proper angle.
It doesn’t have a brand name one it. It‘s a generic cheap thing I ordered online.
Super!
I think u need a steel ferrule also on the other end of the handle
It was a conscious decision not to put a ferrule on the end. I don’t want to do any heavy hammering with it.
Am I crazy or is that pressure fitting to the handle something that will wear sooner than later? I get a feeling that some epoxy should have been put in that hole before it was hammered on.
Hey, I don‘t think that epoxy is necessary here. The wood is under a lot of pressure between the tang and the ferrule and I think it has been done this way for centuries before there was epoxy. I am quite sure that most new chisels are also still done this way.
Maravilloso 👍🙋
Oh I wanted to ask. Where was this chisel made? Do you know what the imprint says?
It says Peugeot Frères.
Grandiosa
Отличная СТАМЕСКА...
My only problem with this video is that he should have nickel plated the pipe fitting, because it will rust very fast.
I keep tools like this lightly oiled. The blade itself will also rust if you aren’t careful.
Perfeito
hi, i'm new to this business, can you see how i restore??
Beech is superior to most woods for being hit on its end grain for it resists spliting
Yeah, but doesn't really matter much for a chisel handle, any hardwood will do.
@@autumn5592 what you make yours out of don't matter at all to me i use the best suited wood for certain applications as hickory for an axe handle white oak if I have to substitute and is a good 2nd choice for chisel handles too or even birch

First
I have a wooden jointer plane with a chip breaker from Peugeot Freres! It's more than a hundred years old :^)
Cool! I couldn’t really find out when these chisels were made.
@@imadethischannel That logo is from around the 1850s til around 1910, as I remember it. It's difficult to see which specific version it is on the old ones when they are tiny like that. An expert might be able to (and that's not me :^) ).
I don't understand how people let tools get like that. Fantastic work. I don't take the patina off my chisels. As long as there are no Pitts or anything I clean it up and leave it. Ever watch Steve gatgos?
No, I‘ll check him out!
@@imadethischannel Stavros Gakos is his name.
BOY DID I BUTCHER THAT LOL
Haha, ok. Of course I have watched many of his videos. He’s great.
I don't like when people remove patina either, unless it's absolutely necessary. It's the life of the tool, save it, enjoy it.
Some ppl and their tools do not compliment each other. Tools suffer bad treatment/use.
Those who know their real value, will also know how to care for them, especially if they are well made, quality pieces.
Here, shown is a chisel which was not seriously misused/not abused.
I was left some chisels since 60 years ago, razor sharp.
It looks wonderful!! You did a great job restoring with a new handle!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Beautiful chisel. Well worth the work. Nice job. 👍🏻
Very impressive result, love the close up shaving. 👌
The most damn sexiest shaving I did ever see
Браво!!!!!! Шикарный инструмент сотворили вновь 👍😁
Awesome work, dude! It turned out fantastic! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks!
That's a fantastic job love the handle thanks for sharing and remember stay safe and make 🍺🍺👍👍🇬🇧
Thanks! Making beer is not really my domain though😃
Te ha quedado perfecto. La madera muy bonita. Buen trabajo amigo. Te felicito.
Great video! What type of lathe was that? I have never seen one that clamps to a workbench!
Thanks! It’s an old German thing that was made by a company named Wolfcraft. It’s a bit scary to use, though.
Eastern chisels have a concave back. It can be seen when you begin grinding. The end and the edges show up immediately. The idea was to reduce friction and heat with a concave back. I think it's pretty minor detail.
Yes, European chisels are meant to be flat.
so awesome. Saw your post in an old reddit thread which led me here. sorry for the ignorance, but how did you put the thread on that wooden handle to match the pipe fitting's at 5:40 in the vid? was it created by you twist it into the fitting and the metal thread cut the wood or is it a diff. method? Thank you. Nice videos indeed! very relaxing
Hey, glad you like it! I just twisted the fitting onto the handle.
Will give that a go when it's time to replace a handle. Thank you for making these videos
You made this very well👍
Amazing work. The wood of the handle is awesome.
Nice work!
Before making cars, they were the best french tools makers. Lucky guy !
I would have put a cap on the pommel end to stop splitting .....
Yes, I thought about it as well. But then, I’m bit planing to use this chisel for heavy duty hammering and it just looks and feels so nice this way.
Great restoration 👍😍
hi, i'm new to this business, can you see how i restore??
Damn nice - J O B
Thanks!
The end killed it absolutely... What an amazing video
This is an impact chisel. Still, it was necessary to make a striker on the heel.
What an awe-inspiring handle! Nicely done!
Lovely.... and not a Festool in sight!
hi, i'm new to this business, can you see how i restore??
Exactly. Anyone with any Festool tools aren't really woodworkers.
@@Muzzledoctor Come on now,,, isn't that what the "real" mechanics said the first time they saw a guy using an air-powered impact gun to take off truck wheels?
I’ll take two of those! Terrific work.
Dammit boi. You make it look too easy.
Parabéns ficou muito bom obrigado
Piękna robota. Pozdrawiam
Peugeot brothers... Lion symbol... is this where the car industry started?
I think it is or was the same company.
👏👏👏👏🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾👍👍👍
great job friend, i preferer to heat up the metal handle before put in the wooded handle
Can you explain why? Won‘t it contract when it cools down? Also, I wouldn‘t want to mess up the heat treatment.
@@imadethischannel no dear , just heat up the metal handle - will not lose the harden-and put it in the wooden handle and the wood will take the metal's format , but you need to keep the wooden hole is smaller than the metal handle, will fit perfectly. sorry for bad English, it's not my mother's language
Thanks, that‘s interesting. And it works with hard woods as well?
@@imadethischannel
of course
i used this method in my dagger making , and became perfect
Nice
Dude that's ONE beautiful chunk of steel. Nice work. Too bad you can't talk. You certainly got a lot of use from that pipe coupler.
Haha, thanks! I think there are enough videos of people rambling so I try to let the images speak for themselves.
@@imadethischannel You're a good sport. I meant no insult.
Peugeot freres! Nice tool.
The beautiful wood just finishes it all off
Yes, this plum wood is amazing. Thanks for watching!
Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻
The master did everything right. Excellent.
Lovely. But the wooden handle is tooo loose
Yes, it’s a fine line between not being able to hammer it all the way down and opening it up to far. But it sits pretty tight. I couldn’t get it out anymore by hand when the chisel is clamped in the vise.
Excellent!
Beautiful job, handle is superb! Thanks for the vid
Thanks!
What is the brand and model of that mini wood lathe?
I‘m not sure. I got it used and it doesn’t have a brand name on it. But I also can‘t recommend this type very much. It is not rigid enough and difficult to align.
На выходные пойду на"Поле Чудес",куплю убитую стамеску и приведу ее в порядок.Одна загвоздка:
нет токарного станка...🙆
Hey can you share the info on the lathe device you were using in the video ?
Unfortunately, I do not know much about it. It does not have a brand name on it. But I also cannot really recommend it because it is not very rigid and quite difficult to align.
It’s the Zyliss mini lathe + an electric drill. First time I’ve seen one in use. There is a listing on eBay for them at about $180USD, and I believe the same seller is searchable online with some sleuthing last time I did a deep dive into looking at this tool.
Lovely work on the chisel!
Thanks! I think for 180 bucks you can definitely get something better. This setup is pretty shaky and there are similarly sized things where everything is mounted to some sort of rail at least.
@@imadethischannel I see what you mean. Do you think it is possible to modify it to make it more rigid? It might make for an interesting video.
Beautiful work! That turned out awesome.
Thanks!
Excelent work!
Vinegar!! The best and easiest! Leaves an olive green patina afterwords though. You’ll have to clean it a couple times.
Oh, I hadn‘t noticed.
Beautiful.
Dude what is that lathe I want one like yesterday hahaha
Haha yes, the lathe looks funny but it is a bit scary to operate. Not sure if I can recommend it. I think it was made by a German company named Wolfcraft.
@i made this well good thing cause I think they stopped selling it haha. I just need something to make knobs and chisel handle size things without paying 600$ lmao
Yes, that sound familiar :)
@@imadethischannel any other ideas to make that sort of thing? Lol
Well, there‘s always filing on the drill press :)
Cool project and Great job buddy👍

手法很不专业，推荐去看一下专业的修复视频。起初以为是全手工的，没想到后面还是用起了电钻，不如刚开始就使用电钻，把凿子直接固定在电钻上，用低速进行打磨。在还有很多类似的细节需要注意。不戴手套直接触摸化学品差评！有很大进步空间，希望你加油努力。
