    • @Hellsong89

      On car restoration side of things using brass or if possible copper plate behind the sheet metal and fill weld it is pretty common method. This way molten metal has something to support it, so it wont just drop off and steel wont connect to brass or copper. Also those metals are great heat conductors, so heat is pulled from steel by copper or brass and this way thin sheet metal warping from heat is minimized. Plate being big enough it has enough mass to absorb and spread the heat on the material so it wont even melt.

    This one really hit home for me
    My great grandmother had a set of kitchen gidgets that she had since she was a teenager, that included not only a coffee grinder, but also a grease strainer, percolator, and a variety of fancy metal hot holders. By the time she reached 90 the years of being stored and mistreated had taken their toll. When she died my mom and I were going to take them and work on restoring them.
    When we got to her house,our relatives who lived closer had already cleared out the valuables, leaving behind what was left of the set in a trash bin with a dozen bottles of bear.
    On the bright side we managed to save the pie rack.

    As a coffee enthusiast and someone with a hand grinder, I really wanted to see the grinder burrs restored as it really does matter. Grind size is one of the key elements in brewing consistently good coffee. This is the first restore video that I couldn't bring myself to hit the like button on (I didn't hit the dislike either because the rest of the work and this channel is still amazing)
