men it's so stupid , paint this helmet aerosol , you messed up it(
Wie er einfach deutsch ist
Looks like a toy helmet now
As a native english speaker, the english word for those is "Thingy"
good one there gonna tell that to my english teacher one day ! :)
I think it's a thingamabob. Lol
@@ladyrachel13 sorry - it's a doohicky
@@unclejack123 I think you're right! ☺
Can confirm. Alternatively, "Do-hicky" is also acceptable.
Dying a little because the cross is not symmetrical.
I think one side is supposed to be longer but that's my opinion
The width and height should have been equal.
I think he restored it the way he found it so blame the people in 1930 :D (it is visible that the original cross on it was so disproportioned too)
Its kind of painful to see how he removed the paint and the original insignia.
Yeah, yeah it was, but he did this helmet good
@Jorge Quigiven that the alternative is letting it rust and crumble to dust, it's better this way. You can't keep it as is when it's rusting.
The rust could've been neutralized.. From what I can tell, it was only surface rust. There was no pitting.
By just doing electrolisis, he could have eliminated rust, and keeping all the original paint.
Too much whining
Good job, although I would have measured the exact dimensions and position of that cross before stripping the paint and then recreated it as it were.
He did have a bit of a guider because of the helmets spine.
@@Lobo2265 Yeah but got the positioning of the cross COMPLETELY wrong, Far too high up and the upper vertical far too short as a result. Also not convinced the crest on the top of the helmet would have been white!
@@rexus6google guess there's no horizontal guider so yeah
I agree related to the Red Cross size... it's 5 squares....
@@rexus6google if you look at the thumbnail the top of the cross is indeed shorter and it’s in the right position
The only thing that triggers me, is that the red cross hasn't got a nice cross shape. It is off.
it triggers me too.
if you look at the original....its off too... he got it right!
Isn't it just the same proportions of the original? The only thing I noticed was the lack of C R F on the front (but I wouldn't have fancied masking that off either!)
I'm a bit triggered about the cross too.
@@billfear1 the bottom part doesn't go far enough down and the 'arms' are too thick. Should have traced the original before paint stripping.
Sad to see the original red cross removed. sad.
Didn't like that he painted over those gold snaps either. That would've looked dope.
Its the only way sadly
@@blaahblaah5100 what gold snaps?
@@_GhostMiner I think he/she meant those gold colored pieces that connect the helmet parts seen at 6:30. At 7:37 you can see them being painted over.
@@blaahblaah5100 I think he just don't want to risk paint scratched because of riveting. so he riveted then painted
Who else was waiting for the sand blasting???🤔😁
Me ha ha you read my mind
Always waiting for powder coating
i did
and blasting holes in it ?
Hay Day Falcon Что ты сказал??? Они тебе ничего не делали , так что ты их исподтишка не проклинай!

Weird seeing you here bosh
00:54 if Van Gogh had a helmet
I think the same at this part, great!
Wait I don’t get it... didn’t he shoot himself on the chest, not the head?
@@dummydumdum5713 i was referring to his art style 😆
Why
Dummy Dumdum me
Wow, so much rust on that helmet. You made a very good job with this one, replacing all the rivets and the new leather. Amazing :-)
My two favorite channels. My Mechanics and Tysy ❤️
@@QTJoe i love Random Hands.
my mechanics I think those metal strips you used towards the end are called corrugated iron
@@QTJoe Yup, Your'e right, I subscribe both channels. We need more of Them... Greets from Poland :-)
My mechanics i love u, hahaha :P yours job are so great, perfect.
Omg why are restoration videos so relaxing. My favorite ones are when they don’t talk. They let their masterful work do the talking. Like if you agree.
but one last thing that i am not agree with , is that last entry in frame is his creation
Mix video was that English?
No , it is a RUclips video channel and video can be in any language , even in mute
Mix video no, I was talking about your comment... lol nvm moment lost.
Although this was an amazing restoration, there are two flaws:the first is that you stripped away the original insignia;this is a major taboo among collectors/historians. Personally, if you would've taken measurements of the original cross, and applied those to the new paint, then I would've found it be a nearly perfect restoration. However, because you freehanded the final design of the cross, didn't go over the liner/crest studs, and didn't add the lettering, it appears inauthentic.
The second reason is that the original paint seems to have been applied by hand, rather than by spray. Apart from those two things, this was a great restoration.
The first thing is what I would call a liner frame, and the second things would be a corrugated liner band. These are rough descriptions based off of their purpose/me conparing them to other helmet liner components.
C / B Yeah I’m a militaria collector and I’m kind of pissed he stripped it of the original paint a soldier had personally done. When it hits the market again it won’t be known as a French medics helmet, but as a refurbished Adrian’s helmet. Such a shame.
@@scottwhite1745 My thoughts as well.
He removed the original red cross and he made it also wrong size... zero accuracy! And as you can see inside the red cross you have 3 initials "C-R-F" that means Croix Rouge Francaise (French Red Cross) and he totally removed it!! This is not a restoration this is a complete crime for a lot of reasons.
Yes i understand what your saying but what if he didn't know how to restore around the original paint and cross,he may not be from here, plus this is a restoration. But i see why you are saying. Maybe a little consideration can go in not criticizing you just saying also comparing*
@@cyro._3665 He ordered & installed a repro liner (Which utilizes rivets.), and properly applied the paint. I don't doubt his competence when it comes to restoring; rather, I am concerned with his accuracy.
>restore around the original paint and cross
I don't dissent to stripping the original paint, as there is no way to remove corrosion from painted surfaces without taking away a finish (where applicable). However, his recklessness in the colour & application of paint are the problems. Firstly, he sprays on both the primer and finish; this is innacurate to the Interwar-Period, as aerosol paint had yet to be invented (This can be evidenced by the brush-strokes originally extant on the helmet.). Secondly, he chose a white which is untrue to the off-white/cream colour seen on other period examples, and the low-value red present on the red cross is also brighter than the original.
Another problem with the paint-job is the Red Cross; rather than measure the original, he free-handed the measurements, and left out the CRF. This caused the distorted cross seen in the final product. Note how the bottom of the cross occupies a pair of liner-rivets, and brushes up against the crest (On the original.). On his version, he leaves space between both of these, making the vertical arms shorter than their horizontal counterparts, as well as thinner. Altogether, the paint-job makes a decent restoration seem like a lazy, unplanned, filler-video.
>,he may not be from here,
Since when did nationality correlate to competence? Also, where is "here?" For all you know, I could be typing this from El Viceroyality de Nueva España.
Also, could you please reiterate the last sentence for me? No offence, but I can't understand it.
Thank you for this restoring. I’m an Italian Red Cross member,and is curious see our old stuffs 🤣🤣. I would be proud of wear it
Its an adrian ww1 French helmet. The Red Cross used them as well.
I see you are an Italian Red Cross Master that's very neat
Annette Petrin that’s actually the italian version of an adrian helmet: adrian mod.16. In fact is made with only two metal parts: cap and crest. The french model, adrian mod.15, was made with four metal parts: cap, crest, front and rear visor.
@@robzombieshot no its ww2 the ww1 helemts were diffrent this version is a model 26
@@emmepi4945 no its french its the model 26
12:34 you forgot "C-R-F" text on cross with white paint
yeah!! fix it!!!!
ITS TRUE
It really has C-R-F text on red plus with "Courier New" font, and those openings that he cover at 8:43 were vents for sweat, and there was thin layer of sponge between top cover and helmet itself to prevent dust and smoke comming from outside
i missed that! good eye!
@@technixbul Those "vents" were for if a badge was to be affixed to the front, as these helmets were multi purposed. The actual vent holes up top can be seen at 7:33.
Wish it would have been restored to the original style
I do truly love history so it was sad to see the old paint go, however I do think you did a pretty great job. Like others said there were flaws but those aside it looks really amazing!
when you were stripping the paint, it kind of looked like a van gogh painting.
Take some old paint, some paintstripper and let gravity do its thing. Pure art :-)
That’s exactly what I thought too! The texture was so Vincent.
'ear 'ear.
I was thinking Salvador Dali
Same
That thing was so rusty, I thought the rust remover would just dissolve the whole thing 😂
11:45 These are called "gaufrettes" in French, they were used in the 1915 Adrian Helmet used during WW1.
But what you are restoring is 1926 Adrian helmet (Those are the type used in WW2) therefore, there is no need for those gaufrettes.
BakemonoKagami I think mexicans used this to
I have the utmost respect for what you do, because its truly incredible but, I am kind of disappointed that you removed the original decal representing French medic. This hurts the historic value more than anything, but it also decreases the monetary value of the item.
Originals were hand painted
@GerhardVon Otto chill guy...he saved it from futher rot and its now preserved for future generations. Its not a museum piece and was in complete obscurity untill now. The original has been doctumented so what else do you want?
While this is true....it had to be done..there was no saving the original...im sure it was concidered but just look at it..you cant work around all that.
Yawn. It's his helmet you dolt. Get your own and restore it then. Or shut up.
@@DrLoverLover stfu HE is the one who is supposed to restore items, it's in his name, but when HE customizes the item it is no longer restoration.why don't you do it tough guy?
My family have all served in the Red Cross at some point in there lives.
My great grandfather was a member of the Red Cross in London during the blitz in world war 2.
Nice to see some history being resorted and kept alive.
@5:15 the part that holds the liner in is called, in French, "ressorts" or in English "springs", the aluminum spacers (as they are known, though some people call them "gaufrettes" that translates from French to "wafers" like the treat.) @11:45 were not needed as those go with WWI Adrian helmets, and not the Adrian M26. I myself collect old military helmet and restore / repair them in attempts to raise the value or preserve an item, it would have been important to paint the helmet in a Khaki brown similar to most M26's at the time and hand applied white point on only the outside and hand applied the cross for a more authentic feel. But I love watching your videos and have learned about some new products to help me in my own restorations.
I've restored and helped restore some german ww2 helmets for reenacting. Personally, we look for an empty shell with no paint or no liner, and then base the look and paint job on existing helmets in better condition. Removing paint would be a waste and alot of the time make the item less valuable.
@@tostie3110 German helmets are a different story, when compared to an Adrian helmet. Only time I have stripped paint on a german helmet before is when the entire helmet was rusted and maybe 3% or less of the paint is intact. If you can see an insigna, I don't touch them much.
@maffimuk I was debating on putting together a youtube focused on military restoration or what to look for while collecting. Maybe a blog, I don't know.
3:23 my laugh be like
lol
Awww I got an ad :(
I've always had a really soft spot for the Adrian helmet and it's really awesome to see you bring one back to looking awesome
Great job perhaps next time put cross on before clear coat as it makes the lines of the masking tape look less prominent that's what auto spray painters do looks great though just a thought..
or just give it a coat of the white paint after masking. so the red dont bleed out
@@propsygun6024 the pigment will make the white paint pink doing it that way, the clear acts as a barrier
I am a volunteer at the Brazilian Red Cross and I congratulate you for the great work of restoration.
Greetings from Brazil and until the next video.
🇧🇷👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Successfully removed all the charm and character from this object. Well done!
I can't change my mind when i saw the last beauty creature ❤️
It makes me sad when I see you remove the paint
Great work once again buddy. Do you still have room for all these restored items?
Who knew apple sauce was so good at removing paint.
Nooooo the original paint
It hurts to see 😞
yeahh he totally ruined the history like that
Great restoration job. I like the fact that there are still some imperfections in the metal under the paint. It shows that the helmet has some age, and isn't just a replica. I also like some of the new camera angles that you are trying. Congratulations on a great job all around.
Another top job you have done here. To go from a total rusty mess to something that looks new must have taken lots of work.
I like your helmet model it suits her.
For the first time
I prefer the old versión
But nice job.
scraping the burnt parts of my toast: 2:27
Oddly satisfying. Nici eu nu stiam de canalul asta! Foarte tare!!!
I typically like these videos but something this old and valuable should be brought to a museum to restore or to be displayed because of its historical significance.
I think it would have looked great with the brass rivets unpainted.
Wow the new leather chin strap and head liner was a nice touch, well done!
This helmet looks like a mix between the 1920 firefighter helmet and the special military school helmet; that made the video even more interesting, thats cool!
On the other side, that weirdly shaped red cross is going to drive mad all watchers with OCD.
Dolmeca the Knight its a ww2 Adrian helmet with a medic decal which he ruined.
J’adore ! Je peux t’envoyer un morceau du musée pour le restaurer si tu veux 🤷🏻♂️😱
Romy X Papy Gardien T’es malade toi dans ta tête
Perso en tant que collectionneur comme papy gardien, je trouves ça dégueulasse d'avoir détruit l'histoire de cette objet
Thank you for doing what you do to restore these old, well made relics. They certainly don't build things as well as they used to years ago, so thank you for preserving the past! - Dave
I am so glad you restored this to what it looked like before. I was holding my breath, telling myself not to skip to the end, worried you'd leave out the Red Cross emblem. I don't know why I was worried but I was. Thank you! lol
You do beautiful work, I'm binge watching your channel, skipping around. I love all the beautiful historical items you find, the stories they can tell!
After five hours in the MC-51 I was expecting nothing to be left!
MEDIC!!! Great job by the way :)

The paint stripper has to be my favorite part! Idk I just love the way it looks 😍😁
It now looks just like the day it was first made. The pretty young lady made it look even better. As always, beautiful work, good sir.
Why no sandblast removal?
Oh wait this isn’t Rescue and Restore...
Matthew McCabe bish I thought was too
because since the metal is very rusted, its thin. with sandblasting you take down rust but also a thin layer of metal. So there is a posibility of making some holes on the helmet. Also, not everyone has the sandblaster.
I thought the same thing...i was like..WTF AM I WATCHING.WHO TRICKED ME.WHY AM I HERE!!?? NOOOooo00oooo
Imagine what will be historic from our decade in the future
I appreciate the art of restoring things, but I think I honestly liked the "rustic" original look it had. Made it look how old it really is. Thanks for the video!
1:04 that’s some nice abstract art there
Absolutely beautiful restoration, well done.
Restoring things like that is just sacrilege in pure form
Nice work as usual! Your wife is beautiful too.
You need to get a sandblaster.
Don't think its his wife but I could be mistaken
Wife or not wife, but so beauty woman
It is his wife. She has her own channel...make up and stuff
@@DEmma1972 congrats that man. Very lucky and talanted 👍
I love the non sequitur… “Your wife is beautiful too. You need to get a sandblaster.”
Should invest in sand blasting machine, saves time to remove rust 👍
Sand blasting is much less work and much more fun.
The level of detail is amazing. You have a new subscriber.
When you were painting I Loved it from you
Happy to see this. I'm also worked in Junior Red cross😊
Do some research on your own they are dishonest
Очень круто!!
Интересно смотреть именно твои видео по реставрации!
This looks good! Filler for all the pitting especially on the top piece would have taken this to the next level.
Thanks for saving another piece of history.
Good job!
But just one thing, The Cross for the Red-Cross movement, must be equal by all sides.
Yeah that part got on my perfectionist gene a bit
Hermoso final... Cute ending... 😍
They say restoring can take value away from antiques, but, I think restoring it to pristine condition should also benefit it since now it will last another 100 yrs.
Your girl/wife...is beautiful.!
And your channel is my favorite restoration site.
These videos hit different at 3am
There goes your "nerd" status. That woman is entirely too pretty. :D
Nerds can be beautiful too. :-P
Its France, what did you expect?
Dead comment, I know but pretty sure it's Romania
absolutely beautiful conclusion.....,the hat was nice as well
Great job as always ! Glad to see you give it a new life to that " old lady ".
Great work, and a very lovely model!
That was a wonderful job! Although I would have painted the Red Cross before putting a clear overcoat and the cross should be equal length on all sides.
what did you do WHAT DID YOU DO
I think this is absolutely atrocious, I couldn't believe that he made the paint look worse than when he got it. He really should have done more research on it before he restored it.
Wonderful. Never expected it required so many parts to be it.
C’est juste magnifique votre travail ! Bravo ! 👍🏼
Nice restoration ! ;)
@Joseph Canell But he didn't fix the "C.R.F." lettering on the cross on the helmet, he instead painted over it.
Why does this restored helmet triggers me?! IT LOOKS SO GOOD BUT SOMETHING IS OFF !?
Chub Chubz it’s missing the letters on the red cross
The color is off, the cross is offset and he left some bumps on the helmet.
Well, for one thing, it's too perfect. It was originally made under government contract. The white paint would have been flatter, uneven, and industrial looking. As for the red cross, the one he applied is a little narrower on the bottom than it is on the top. Plus, it's not in the same position as the original. It's higher. And the bottom is now longer than the top. And finally, the edges of the cross are too crisp. Instead of tape, the original manufactures would have used a template and been spraying about hundred a day. The crispness of the edges would have been the least of their concerns. Getting the helmets out the door would have been what mattered, finish be damned.
Nice job on this. I saw that you clear coated the helmet first before painting the cross. I would have painted the cross first and then clear coated the entire helmet to protect the red as well.
The fact that the video doesn't have any stupid music in it makes it so much better, also awesome restoration!
Beautiful work, as always. Speaking of beautiful, you should definitely feature your lovely young model in future episodes
The name of the unknown part is "Gaufrette" and you must to put the gaufrette on WW1 helmet (Model 16) not on WW2 helmet (Model 26)
You should open a shop or something like that this is awesome you truly have talent
Simply an amazing transformation.
I really thought I would see his face for once
Craze same
Craze i did to
Craze that was 1,000,000,000 times better
I Enjoyed watching the restoration of the helmet,fine job.
I have one of these helmets I would like to restore and wondered if you could please tell me where you obtained the spare parts for your helmet.
Thank you.
Eu imagino que ele encontre essas coisas antigas e restaure! Aí com uma arte genial dessa deve ganhar muita grana nas vendas.
Amazing Job! my Great Grandpa was In The French Red Cross And has The Uniform and the Helmet!
jude andrei calle well I don’t Know If It was a Uniform Per say But It’s White Wool With And Hand Stitched Cross And it Looks Sharp!
7:45 when you lose patience
am i the only one who thinks that this is an historical murder?
Why an historical murder? In all the museum, the good looking helmets are restored like this, just to give to those ancient things the appearance they've had back in the day.
So if you think it's historical murder, then canvas like mona lisa, la liberté guidant le peuple, the venus of milo, and all other well preserved piece of art either! So no, it's not historical murder, it's renovation
@@lucasdesloires2955 I don't think you go to museums very often. Mona Lisa, La liberté guidant le peuple and the Venus of Milo were never restored to its original aspect. Do you really think that Alexander of Antiochia really made Venus without her arms? Do you really think Da Vinci painted Mona Lisa with that sepia filter? The main objective of a museum is to keep history alive. That means to keep the history of that specific object alive as well: if the arms of the statue broke centuries ago, keep it: this is part of his history. If some crazy restoration was conducted on the Mona Lisa and her eyebrows were erased some time ago, keep it. These are marks of the time and should be kept as a testimony of history.
@@lucasdesloires2955
The purpose of the restoration is to preserve the original characteristics of the object. If this helmet were from a museum, the restorer would remove rust and dirt without altering the original paint and parts.
Yes, you really are the only one.
Kinda but not really
Great work sir, looks like new, perfect.
this is unbelievable! I can't imagine how it was done!
These videos are so satisfyinggg
Not so fun fact: the guy that made this probably died in the 1990s
I think what some people fail to remember is that when the original item was created, it was not meant to be used a rusted old keepsake. When it is restored, you are returning the item to its former glory and the way it was intended to be. Just like with paintings, painters don't use all those delicate brush strokes and vibrant colors just so 100 years later someone appreciates all the grime that has collected over the original. You want to appreciate it as it was, not what it has become.
You did a great job on the restoration.
When you're going to replace that capacitor of your bench grinder, great work tho ...
Some tool induction motors were designed with no starter intentionally so they are easily reversible... Probably not the case here, but possible.
