I just realized a ton of the viewers of this channel seem to be middle aged men. I'm a 20 year old female college student 😂😂😂 what is wrong with me??? Lol! I just love to see these things get cleaned, like when you sandblast them or use various fluids to be able to just wipe off the rust and grime of the ages. It's also really fun to watch, because I like to believe that once the tool is restored to its former glory, it's like I get to see what it actually looked like or could've looked like back when the product first came out. it's awesome!! And SO satisfying.
"20 year old college student", eh? In four months I'll be 80 and I enjoy learning the "How-To's" and the "Why-For's" just as much as you seem to. There's another advantage to learning these things; relearning the pleasures of working wood without filling the air in your shop with clouds of sawdust and decibels of noise. Suddenly you can listen to the whispering wood telling you if you're working it with or against the grain. Yes, you can feel it as well.
After my husband passed I found one of these in his tool box but never knew what it was used for. Well now I know. Thanks for showing how to use it. I'm going to try it on the many hand saws he had. Nice restore.
One of the great things about your videos and craftsmanship is that you also provide a lot in the way of education regarding tools, their use, and methods of restoration. I very much appreciate that...thanks and best wishes for the holidays.
The paper has led on it, your supposed to rub it on the tool until it turns pink (if has lead) but if it doesn’t turn pink you can rub on the paper to confirm it is working. It’s so you don’t get a false negative.
This is only used to set teeth after sharpening or to change the entire cut of saw. Also most modern saws have hardened teeth and are more tasking to set and sharpen.
The inscription, as you call it, inside of the fire engine red pull handle is stamped, "MADE IN U.S.A.". The rest of mine is dark blue. The tooth adjustment wheel at the front has stamped settings from 5 to 11 and the model is stamped as ND over the numbers 432. The left outside of the body opposite the spring has a sticker saying, "Stanley" w/yellow letters on a blue background and "Handyman" in yellow letters on a red background just below it.
Why do you check the paint for lead? Does lead affect what stripper you can use? Or is it to take extra precautions not to be exposed to lead? If it's to prevent lead exposure, why not just treat ALL paint like it contains lead?
If you're going to sandblast, you can strip the paint at the same time. However, if the paint contains lead, you don't want any of the lead particles to be recycled into your blast media. So, you have to strip it first. You then sandblast to remove rust.
If he stripped the paint with sand blaster or just a wire wheel on a drill etc, it would put lead particles in the air and these can be inhaled. Stripping lead paint with paint stripper is wet stripping and clumps the particles together so it can be cleaned and dispensed of more easily without the lead getting airborn. Saved inhaling the lead and damaging lungs.

Nice. I've never seen one of those. Good job!
I got one of these from my late father’s tools, didn’t know what it was ( adjusting parts missing) now I know. 👍🏻 Nicely done.
Hi RS👋👋👋 a good and interesting tool 👌🏽 very good restoration 👍👍👍🔥💣
Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻

Very good!
That is cool.
Never knew that was a thing. Super cool, thanks for sharing
Cool i have been watching restoration videos
Well done.. A very useful tool, now all you need is a saw vise. Peace
I did one of these a while ago cool little tool I didn't paint mine but the paint looks good nice work.👍
I haven't seen one of those in many years.
Неплохое востановление , РАЗВОДКИ !!!
I bought one of these in 1965 or 66. Have used it 2 or 3 times.
Roy Reynolds it’s like a bathtub drain wrench... once you use it, you’ll never use it again.
Sounds like your light really needs a new ballast. Or convert it to LED
I supercool restoration, but I was hoping to get to read the inscription in the bottom of the handle.

@@mjbirdClavdivs that makes sense, I never considered that.
Why is the lead check if he removes the paint anyway, regardless if it is contains lead or not?
If it doesn't have lead I would just skip the paint stripper and go straight into the sand blaster

Stripping lead paint with paint stripper is wet stripping and clumps the particles together so it can be cleaned and dispensed of more easily without the lead getting airborn.

@@RestorationStation Thanks for answer
@@ianallen2 Thanks for answer, makes sense
@@trebronikum Youre welcome. Glad to have helped you understand. :) Happy new year to you and your family.
Muito bom.
lik 1000 😂🙋🌸
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’ve never seen one before and I was born in 1953. My Dad had saws, but not this tool.
There's something you won't see in to many toolboxes.
Please mention the chemicals that you are using to clean and restore with their action and uses. Then it will be helpful for us no?
Didn't know that was done...tool usage. Learn something.
