  • This is a Mid-century made crank operated pencil sharpener. It was going to be thrown in the trash so I thought I'd give it a go restoring it. I made plenty of mistakes during this restoration but it was a good challenge for my metalworking practice, and I learned a lot.

    That thing is too cool!!! I am a teacher and my students go through a new pencil sharpener every year. They dont make them like they used to, haha.

      It really is a fantastic design. All classrooms should have one of these. Perhaps you can install one in your classroom! Thank you for sharing :)

    Why didn't you just JB weld the gear instead of ruining the sharpener?

    McGyver restoration, use a proper screwdriver

    You just ruined a beautiful piece ... Even you don't have a screwdriver
    A restorer should own a sandblaster

      @ejwoodhouserestorations2796  Год назад

      I prefer the nice new green to rusty black 🤣 the leatherman works great don’t knock it until you’ve tried it 🤓 also that’s incorrect, yes a sandblaster is faster but a wire wheel works just as well. I suggest you broaden your horizons my friend! Merry Christmas 🎄
