Since it is the first video this year, I have thought of something special for you and packed the restoration in a fairy tale. I also did my interpretation of the japanese Kintsugi Technique. This time I have restored a padlock. A diver has found the padlock in the german bodensee. So it is a real underwater treasure. The antique lock is about 150 years old and may have been at the bottom of the lake for a long time before the lake treasure was found.
The lock is very rusty and can no longer be unlocked although a key is included. This is also rusted. The lock is so heavily calcified that it almost looks like a stone.
I start with electrolysis to loosen the rust. Then I can finally disassemble the historic piece completely.
I find a lot of rust and sand inside, which seems to have protected the mechanics. All the internal components are only slightly rusted.
However, I have to remake the outer ring of the lock after it has been eaten away by rust to paper thickness.
The finished part is not painted but finished by the japanning technique. For this I bake on 3 layers of tar, linseed oil and turpentine mixture.
I then weld a fracture on the shutter and hot-blue all the mechanical parts.
I weld the latch bolt because it has deep rust pitting. I then grind everything clean to 800 grit and nickel plate the latch.
All rivets I turn from a steel bar new with my lathe and nickel plate and polish them as well.
The look of the front and back of the lock I want to preserve to keep the history of the time at the bottom of a lake alive.
I solder the backs with body tin to strengthen the discs and nickel plate and polish them as well.
In the style of the japanese kintsugi technique, where porcelain vases and bowls are glued with gold to accentuate the story rather than cover it up, I am gilding the deep rust inclusions with gold leaf. This gilding will wear off over time in the raised areas, allowing the polished nickel to show through.
Now I can finally restore the key. Here, too, it is important for me to preserve the patina of the key. To intensify the effect, I hot-blue the key at the end.
For the beer test, I try a “Tucher Rotbier” from nuremberg this time.
After this reward, I go to the assembly.
I hope you like the video.
I wish you all a good start to the new year 2022
I am looking forward to you.
Dr Beer

Hello everyone, for all of you who might be worried, I just want to say: I WILL NOT USE THIS FONT AGAIN :D. I chose it to emphasize the fairy tale theme. you also don't need to be worried that I will continue to expand my "poetry" on the channel in the future. I just wanted to do something fun & special for you for the start of the year. 👍
Nothing wrong with the poetry, the different style or the font. He who doesn't appreciate the artistic originality of this particular video needs a restoration of his own, which you may not be able to provide though.
Phew! Thanx!
Yeah, the poetry was good. Just a difficult font.
Great Video, could not..or almost not, it was really hard reading the text though.
Sorry to hear that. Won't use this font again
Great work on this lock, but I think the gold leaf was a bit over the top. You did get it working again and overall the video was a pleasure to watch. Thanks for sharing. 😁👍🇺🇸
Hey Paul, When I edited the video I also thought to myself "The cover looked really good when it was just nickel plated". But it was done already and like I said: My hope is, that the gold rubs off on the higher parts of the pitting and reveals a lot of the nickel plating finish. See you on the next one ?!
@@NTRprojects looking forward to seeing your next video, thanks. Really like your work. 😁👍🇺🇸
Okay, the Amazing Dr. Beer is at it again! Firstly, your videos are absolutely mesmerizing. The editing and attention to detail is a work in itself. Love the added twists, like the treasure chest which makes it fun. So creative. The restoration challenges are varied but you always have a solution. The plastic mold in another video for the coffee grinder was on a new level. Who thought you could bring this lock would come back to life? Bravo Dr. Beer. I am hooked. I will have to buy you a beer 🍺
I think the gold would've been fine if you had coated all the body parts, except the rivets of course. Just looked off with the gold AND black. @@NTRprojects
The pinnacle of luxury: Warm blanket, snow outside, hot coffee and cinnamon buns, with a new Dr. Beer video. Cheers to another beautiful restoration.
That sounds so cozy. Enjoy your Sunday
Nice project.... not the biggest fan of the gold. Great work. thank you.
Don't expect to make a living as a poet.
😀😁😀
Wonderful storytelling, that was sweet. Lovely rescue of a nearly destroyed lock, appreciate the various techniques you used. Well done, Dr. Beer.
Thank you Vickie. I hope you had a good start into 2022
Great restoration, that sucker was older than me and I'm older than dirt.
Oh Larry you can't be that old. Nice to have you here
Once in a while a storry was told,
Of a lock in in lake whichs was old.
I listened with joy to this little story,
and thought by myself "a keyway full glory".
Next time I hire you for the whole video ❤️👍
@@NTRprojects Words can just bearly describe,
what you did. So i hit "subscribe".
@@hitmydaytoday welcome to the channel my friend
I love your work but NOT the font you use. It is quite hard to read quickly.
Hey Julian. I will not use this font again I only used it one time for this video because of the poems. Sorry you had trouble to follow
@@NTRprojects No worries Mate! Keep up the great work.
As for rivets, he never once panics,
He makes new ones, like Swiss 'my mechanics'!
Thank you for picking up the spirit 👍👍👍
Very nice work! I would not have thought it possible to restore that lock. I was impressed with the poetry! I lived in Germany for many years when I was young and learned German well; and it gave me an appreciation for how difficult English is by comparison. To write poetry in English is impressive! Also, that beer... we had Tucher in the Hunsrück too. But I preferred the Pilsner. Most often we had Königsbacher locally. Very good though. Thank you for your videos. Always a pleasure to watch.
Fantastic job!!
And best whises for this year.
Same to you Jaime
Wouldn’t you know it? Dr. Beer is a poet!
Excellent work, as always. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you kindly Roy!
Absolutely spectacular. This is as good as it gets ... thank you for sharing with us! Prideful quality craftsmanship.
Awesome comment. Thank you so so much Bryce
I, sir, am frankly amazed!
With this old lock,
from the rust heap, you've saved!
Loved the fireworks, nice touch. Beautiful job!
One of your best jobs
Nice outcome 👏👏👏
Thanks my friend and best regards to your lovely daughter
Exelente restauración te felicito un saludo desde la ciudad de México
Muchas gracias mi amigo
A Golden restoration
Excellent job.
Thank you very much!
This is not a restoration, this is art !
Gluing a small part on a piece of a wood to sand is brilliant!
Now THIS is what I call a restoration! Not like so many others that does a quick clean and slaps on a half ass paint job and calls it done
Hey Dahlmasen. Thank you so much. Such a feedback makes my day and is worth all the work
A great restoration with retention of the patina caused by rusting.
Personally, I would not have used gold leaf or gold paint, but would have left it nickel plated. But of course, that's a matter of taste.
Master Lock should take some tips here.
I didn't think it would work, but you did a great job with what you had to work with.
beautiful restoration, 👌👌👌👌
I showed the old padlock to my granddaughter (10) and wanted to show her immediately the renovated result. But she wanted to see the process. Her brothers (8 and 5) came to us and all three watched fascinated the video and were very very impressed. Just like me. Wonderful!
I'm impressed that a non-native English speaker could write appropriate poetry for his work.
Glad you enjoyed it Michael
WHAT A HANDSOME PIECE!!!
I was thinking this lock would be toast, but with a bit of hard work, this one would be to boast.
Lovely work Dr. Beer. Another nice restoration done here.
Nice poem my friend. We all got it in us 😁
Erstklassige Arbeit, mein Guter.....das war mal was anderes und sehr interessant. TOP.
With this restoration, you surely are best
Too bad it's not found on an old treasure chest!
That was the best bedtime story I had in a while
Sleep well then 😊
While I wouldn't want it every day, I rather liked your unique font use for this - went well w/ the rhymes & theme :)
Отличная работа, а это что вы нанесли, сусальное золото? И остатки ржавые маленько в нутро засыпали, она там не будет мешаться при работе замка, ну я думаю вы им пользоваться не будете, просто в память ему, его мощи для инергии!) Круто, Привет с России, Республика Татарстан г Тетюши.
Rust breaking is so satisfying to watch
Yes removing rust and revealing what's underneath is just awesome
Very good result colleague !
I'm in the beginning but I was motivated to get better
@@r-prorestoration9570 Hey thank you very much fellow restorer
Great job.
Nicely done!!
that's so awesome. now you can say that this was a lock found locked in a loch :-) great restoration and keep up the good work !
Beautiful!
Stunning.
Herr Doktor, Ihre Arbeit ist wie immer einwandfrei. Das Ergebnis ist wunderschön.
Wie immer ganz herzlichen Dank mein Freund
Very satisfying to watch, great result. Rob T Australia 🇦🇺
Restoration warrior and poet! Well done!
Hehehe Vickie thank you. It was fun doing the poems
Great restoration
Thank you very much Bing
Barely believable that that hunk of iron oxide could be turned into a functioning mechanism again. Doc, you are truly a miracle worker. Nice one and happy new year to you.
Thanks Richard. It was so much work 🙂👍
Repairing history that is so cool, and well done
Glad to hear that you liked it Paul
I was very surprised you managed to bring this one back to life 👍 you did a terrific job.
I liked the Gold leaf.
Thank you my fellow
Good recovery from bad situation.just keep it up,saved another part of history carry on .kudos 👍👍👍😎😎😎
I will keep it up Tom. Looking forward to the next project
Nicely done! And thank you for showing the mechanism so clearly. I was curious, too.
Crazy
Gorgeous!
Well done!
I would have thought it was beyond saving. But you proved me wrong!
I had my doubts too and it was a lot more work than I initially thought :)
Love your works
And I love that you come back to my channel and leave nice comments
@@NTRprojects your work deserves trilions of subscriber
Simply amazing! For sure the best video I will watch while I am in Quarantine. :) thanks for sharing!
Oh no I hope you feel alright. Stay strong in quarantine
That is above remarkable, that is a wonderful talent you have.
Wow Billy thank you very much
You should show this to the Lockpicking Lawyer. ;-)
No no no. I'm afraid of what he will do to it 😁
This was a beautiful restoration for a piece that I am sure holds a secret history that is begging to be told. Thank you for being conscientious of that.
Great
Thank you Alex
Happy New Year
To Herr Doktor Beer
I'm disappointed a Nurnburger beer didn't score higher as I've actually been there at least twice, but I was too young to sample their beers. Nice restoration, I never thought you would do it when I first saw the padlock. Well done, nice to read your rhyming couplets too!
Ah in the end its a matter of personal taste. But for me there are better bavarian beers :)
القديم يفقد قيمته بعد التجديد
لكنه يصبح جميلآ
That was really a joy to watch! I didn’t think that this lock would’ve come out that nice, since it was in a pretty horrible state before! The story telling is so out of the box, I really liked it 🙏🏼 thanks for sharing!
Wow, thank you!❤❤❤
🎉. Nice work! You definitely locked the story in time! You should send your video to Lock Picking Lawyer! That lock has some great history to it, and you put it a tuxedo for its retirement years!!
Hey Montana. I can send him the video, but I won't send the lock to this guy
@@NTRprojects I completely agree!!! The video he will enjoy. The lock you put ALOT of time and $ into making it work and look really nice again. Keep your work to enjoy for yourself! Its these kinds of things we all would love to get as a heirloom from our dad’s! Keep it and enjoy it!
A truly great piece of work.
Nice to hear that you liked it Ezee
What a super-creative solution … thank you! ✌🏻🎨☕️
Now this is beyond restoration, this is pure art. Thank you, sir, for this masterpiece. I am truly astounded and moved buy your techniques and result at the same time.
Poetry, on the other hand... is ok =)
No worries... No poetry ever again 😂
Nicely done! You worked a lot of neat components there - almost lost my supper when you started pouring the dirt back into the lock! 😂 Extra points for Japaning (I think @Hand Tool Rescue will appreciate this) and also for gold leafed, nick plated, tinned pitted metal plates! I never realized you could plate on solder - that is pretty cool. Great video!
Hey Fred plating on solder is possible but the solder is very soft so you need to be very careful when polishing the plating
Beautiful to watch as always. Great that you surprise us with new methods in each video
Thanks my friend. How is the pizza game going?
😮 Someone using Japanning 🥰😍🤩👏👏👏
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you very much for the appreciation
@@NTRprojects Keep up the great work! You're very welcome!!
Excellent video mate. I didn’t think I would be interested but yet again your attention to detail just keeps bringing me back.
Happy New year to you too.
Hey Cam. Thank you for watching it as well. Best regards my friend
Gold leaf looks like a real pain to use.
Your videos just get better and better! Skill at the work, skill at the creativity, and skill at production. Happy 2022 from Ohio! 👍👍👍 ~ John
it really is a great feeling to read such a nice comment. it is so wonderful that you notice so many things i have been working on and trying to improve. best regards to ohio john
Wonderful restoration as usual. I loved that you kept the patina wherever you could. It adds so much character to the lock. Hoist a beer for me!!
Love the story along the way! Great restoration! 👍👍
I loved this! The poetry, the gold leaf, letting the history remain but making it pretty, everything. Happy New Year, Dr. Beer!
Same to you Becky! ❤
...lookin
good, nice work, keep safe...
Hey Bob as always you're so quick. Thank you very much
@@NTRprojects ..great vids..
Nicely done, both with the restoration and the storytelling!
Glad you enjoyed it Andrew!
OMG this was amazing. Such a wonderful restoration and so clever and well done!!!!! Thank-you.
Hey Nora. Thank you. Next project will be in the usual style again. But I'm glad you also liked this video
Great again...! ❤
Thanks a lot ❤️❤️❤️
Nice one Doc, this video is going to be a hit. Saving a padlock that is completely.... Going to be hard work, but ultimately satisfying for all that watch. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much Barry. It's just nice to see that the ones who watched it appreciate the work.
Hallo Doc,
bleib wie Du bist. Liebe was Du tust. Dann wird es immer fantastisch sein, für Dich und alle anderen auch.
Vielen lieben Dank
I love this Rotbier, but unfortunately you get it in my region occasionally only.. 😂
Hey Axel I cross my fingers that you get it soon again
Great Video just one suggestion do use simple fonts (maybe Calibri) in video editing
This is so nice, you did a really awesome job again~
happy new year buddy
Happy new year Brian!
Love the editing and quality. Again wonderful job, so much work!
Thank you Olo
Nice job! 👍- and dito! 😉

Matthias you know what he will do with it????
Daumen hoch für Deine Arbeit und das Video, zur Schriftart und Schriftdauer wurde ja alles schon geschrieben ;-)
Bleibe auch 2022 gesund - ich lechze nach neuen Videos.
Gruß Tino
Hey Tino schön dich wieder hier zu haben. Sollte die Schruiftart wird nie mehr verwendet :)
I was ready to burst when you about to fill the rust again lol. I wonder how long it must've been in the water to be in that condition. Really great work once again! Happy new year dr beer. Wishing you all the the great things this year. Have a good one!
Hey Anisa, I wish you also a very happy new year. I really think it must have been for more than 50 years under water. Since it really was becoming a stone 😁
@@NTRprojects it really was! I had to take a real close look 😂
@@anisatania4036 and btw im so glad that the joke to refill it worked on you 😂😂😂
@@NTRprojects i legit thought the dirt has a function staying in the lock and ready for your explanation 🤣🤣
@@anisatania4036 😂😂😂😂
Sehr geil 🎉 bleib dabei super gute Videos
Perfeito 👏👏👏
1:31 nice brisket you got there! freshly out of the smoker? :)
Loved seeing the lock brought back to life.
I have a question about the beer reviews. In the US most beers are served cold, and I understand that in Europe most are served room temperature. My question is do you ever drink certain beers chilled, and does it affect the flavor much?
Hey I also drink it chilled, but around seven degrees Celsius, so not as cold as in the US. I think a beer shouldn't be served at room temperature
I'm England beer is served cold but not chilled. Room temperature is just wrong
I love the story and especially the restoration. The font was somewhat distracting.
Hey Clyde thank you for letting me know. I will learn from this experience
