Rare SMOKING PIPE Restoration - With AMAZING OUTCOME
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 май 2024
- Rare BROKEN smoking pipe restoration to the smallest detail. At the end I made a lid and a stand for the restored smoking tobacco pipe. Either you use a smoking pipe or not, definitely check out this incredible transformation.
About The Smoking Pipe
This is a RARE old smoking pipe found in a barn built 1875. I was fortunate to get hands on this wonderful piece of history and make it shiny again. It is hand made out of wood, silver, steel, rubber, fabric, copper and lead/tin. The smoking pipe is in terrible shape, worn, broken and missing lid on the chamber.
The Restoration Process
I started by breaking down the smoking pipe. It is not a big item but it took me a while to carefully remove all pieces best I could. To remove the silver lid ring and the silver shank, I had to heat it up with a blowtorch. On my treadle powered Dremel I easily removed dirt, old tobacco and later on sanded down the wooden parts. Also, I sanded by hand to 800 grit to get that smooth surface.
Next step, I cleaned silver parts with the Dremel and polished them afterwards. Since the lid was missing, I made one out of aluminium. I didn’t have any silver plates unfortunately.
To keep this wonderful smoking pipe displayed, I made a wooden stand to follow the curves and shape of the pipe itself. I used a similar wood as close as possible to the pipe, to get a feeling of complete set.
I put all parts together, mostly glued with two component epoxy glue and waxed the wood and polished the metal surfaces again.

Dude. Not only is that extremely impressive work, more than that it's quite literally heartwarming to see what you produce and the methods you use. I remember a little while ago when you asked if you should start to include the use of power tools. So so glad to see you found your own brilliant and inventive way around the issue. Your work is inspirational. A constant reminder of what effort and patience can bring. Bless you brother 🙏. Keep 'em coming! 😎
I don't know what to say, thank you so much brother. This means a lot to any video creator, especially me since I am trying to fight against Goliath (¨David and Goliath story¨). It gives so much energy and motivation to go step further. I am extremely grateful to have such support and help in making decisions about the development of this channel. God bless you! Stay safe brother!
Hggggg
It's the first thing that I appreciate in this video tho
Give this man a like, for such hustle. Been watching restoration videos and never seen somebody do everything without the need of electricity. GOOD JOB FELLA. 👍🏽
I appreciate that! Thank you!
I'm amazed at all of the non Electric tools you have
Thanks Fred!
When the world falls he will still be doing the same thing
His mum is outside on a bicycle powering the lights for him 😂
Yes and not a power point in sight
@@FFD_Restorations have you thought about using a flywheel to keep the machine speed a little more constant? Or do you vary the speed depending on what you need at any given moment?
I like your multifunctional adaptation of grandmother's sewing machine
Thank you!
What''s the RPM on that thing?
I have an old Singer treadle table I have been thinking about doing that with. Is there a video about that?
Right that is creative and badass
E great Idea
I remember me Dad had a pipe like dat when I was a wee lad. He would come home from the mine have a bit of supper and then relax with his ole pipe. I still get goosebumps when I remember him given me my first pipe and a glass of Jameson. It was the best Birthday a 5year old boy could ever ave.
Ahhh the good old days...
Awesome story, thanks for sharing Mark!
☺️😁😆😂🤣😝
@mark rundquist 🙂🙂🙂☺️😊😁😆😂🤣
Oh my nenith 😵
Great video. I don't smoke a pipe, but have always loved them. Was blown away by the treadle dremmel. Stroke of genius!
Thanks a lot Barry! Much appreciated ☺️👍
As a pipesmoker and woodworker, every time you pried something open and found either gum, ashes or burnt wood I kept saying: "This dude must have stopped and took some time to keep his head cool, because I'd have quit out of despair". Amazing job, my dude.
Thanks Erico 😆👍
I have never seen someone restore items with no electric/power tools. It is truly fascinating to watch you do this all without the help of power tools etc. Very good content, thank you for sharing and keeping the "Old ways" alive 👍🙂
Thank you so much for watching sir, much appreciated 👍
I would advise mounting a big heavy flywheel on your manual tools, it will let you work a whole lot smoother
Great advice
This is the first restoration video I'm giving a thumbs up, solely because of the tools you're using for it. Bravo!
Thank you so much 😊👍
what a classical way of restoring objects, it's rare to see them nowadays. nice footwork!
Thanks Patrick!
My pipe smoking days are well behind me but the care and expertise at restoring that pipe brought me back a gentler and happier time in my life.
That is wonderful to hear, thanks Tom!
Your workshop is amazing, really amazing.
Glad you think so Gabriel! Thank you so much!
I really appreciate that he´s working completely oldschool without electricity. ^_^
Thank you so much Connor!
@Winning Team spot on! 🤣
I’m a pipe smoker and love watching pipes restored. This was an amazing restoration. I love that style. Well done.
Awesome, thank you so much Todd!
May I just say,how wonderful it is to hear the sound of wood being worked,and it not being drowned out with music.THANK YOU.
That is great to hear. Thank you for the feedback and watching 👍
I can't get over the fact you have done all this without electricity. I'm very impressed. Great job ❣️🙏
Thank you so much 😀
This manual sander has really got me. Never thought about it.
Cool, thanks for watching!
I've been smoking a pipe for 43 years, and I really appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into fine pipe making. This is truly an amazing pipe of great beauty, complexity, and uniqueness. Thank you for taking the time and effort to give it a new life! You did an extraordinary job..... Especially with manual (nonpower) tooling. You exemplify what is truly meant by the word "Craftsman".
I might suggest though...... You probably need to drill or ream that bowl a bit deeper in order to accommodate enough tobacco for a decent smoke.
Many thanks for watching and kind words. Yes, I should definitely do that, I will keep that in mind for next time! Take care!
Ooooo a pipe restoration this is different and awesome. This is one of the best end results I've ever seen far as restorations go. Outstanding!
Wow, thank you so much!
@@FFD_Restorations you're very welcome
I love the old sewing machine turned generator. Genius!
Thanks Willa!
Came across your video because I like watching restoration videos. I got to admit I loved this restoration because of your shop and tools, but mostly your skills. I am hooked. Please keep the videos coming I'll be on the lookout from now on.
Awesome, thank you so much Joe! I will try my best!
No words again! Only smiling! Thanks!
Excelente trabalho de restauração! Parabéns.
Very well done, I loved the old tools you used to accomplish this restoration, beautiful outcome.
Thank you Cecil!
Sadly, arthritis and neuropathy have taken my ability to do any project like this...but watching your video was sheer joy!
I love all the hand/foot powered tools especially the old sewing machine you use! yes, I did hit subscribe and like!

DUDE!!!!!! Everything about this video and how you did, with what you did, is straight up PHENOMENAL!!! Beautiful end result!!

I'm absolutely in love with the pedal powered dremel. Its brilliant
It's amazing! Glad the "new" parts don't look new!
Fantástico seu trabalho utilizando equipamentos antigos. Está de parabéns. Saudações do Brasil. From Brazil.

I'm a pipe guy..... thanks man. You did it justice.i would pay good money for a restoration like this. Love it from S A
Wow, thanks!
The more of who watch, the more electricity it takes to consume this content. Which by the way is beautiful.
☺️👍

Thank you 😀👍
I just subscribed to your channel after watching this video, well done sir👍..that is a beautiful restoration, mad props
Thanks for the sub and such a kind feedback. Much appreciated!
To go and modify and old treadle sewing machine table into a working power source for your rotary tool, and other such tools is absolutely incredibly smart. The pipe is so cool and I love how you added the lid and the stand is awesome also. Thank you so much for sharing
Cool, I am so truly grateful for such a nice comment. Thank you Heather!
As a pipe smokers i love this video.and i respect your way for restorating thats classical pipe with classical way and classic tools ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you sir 😃👍
2020 has made us get ready for every eventuality.
I want to see the foot pump operated vacuum cleaner he uses to get rid of all the debris! LOL
Thanks for suggestion Dan!
I love the way you complete this job. It's amazing with all non electric tools you have.
Much appreciated 😊👍
One-eyed Willy called... he wants his pipe back!
Seriously though - this is a feat of phenomenal skill and patience, and what a transformation.
😅👍
Your workshop is amazing! I love it! Could you show, how you made all those machines? Love it! So independent!
Hey Chemento!
Thanks a lot. Most of the foot/hand powered tools are made by someone else in the past and I was fortunate to be able to buy them. But the converted sewing machine desk to treadle powered rotary tool I did. Note that the video is a longer one. You can take a look at this link here: ruclips.net/video/h1lcOOSuUVI/видео.html
Also I talk little bit about my shop in this video: ruclips.net/video/z3JBmDLsKWg/видео.html

Muy buena restauración felicitaciones!! Muchas gracias por compartir.
This guy was the inspiration for the movie “The forty year old virgin. “ Nice work. I quit smoking tobacco three years ago but I know an awesome pipe when I see one.
Quality Seaman's tobacco pipe would have been a luxury item in its day ...
Quality what tobacco pipe?
@@figbat6363 popeye pipe.

@@FFD_Restorations your welcome dude. I like the simplistic way you do your work. Less things to go wrong. You are in control of everything. That's how it should be
Well said 👌
In love with all the manual tool It’s a real dream shop
Wow that's one beautiful bit of work! I also really enjoyed seeing all the hand and foot powered tools in your workshop. Keep up the good work
Thank you very much Julianna! Much appreciated 😃👍
I call shenanigans! No such thing as a shop that clean and organized!
Great job, good to see someone restore something that's not an axe or knife.
Fantastic result without using a single watt of power, excellent ! And thank you
😃👍
I’m glad the YT-algorithm suggested this channel! I like restorations and especially when it’s done with the least amount of powertools but instrad with maximum amount of skill. And you provide that plenty. Instant sub. Thank you so much for your content!
Welcome aboard! Thank you so much for kind words!
I enjoy every step of this restoration. I like the way you incorporated the Dremel tool to a pedal wheel! Love it! 💖💖
Thank you so much 🤗
Subscribed. Non-electrical tools is your gimmick. The use of these tools is almost, if not more fascinating than the restoration project itself.
Thank you so much! Welcome!
As others have said workmanship leads to art , would love to own that piece ! , great job.
Thank you very much Jeremy! Much appreciated 👍
Absolutely love your methods! Beautiful work
Thanks Jordan 👍
Love your work man! And all of those tools, it's so awesome!

I am so happy to hear that! Thanks for your feedback!
Dude! New subscriber here! I think it's so amazing that you use all manual tools! No power tools! True craftsmanship!
Thanks and welcome Brian! Glad you think so 😃👍
Just watched a grand knife restoration using laser cutters and all mod cons.
Now I'm watching a gent whose idea of power tools is a treadle sewing machine as a base for a compressor and a saw.
Superbly done,sir!
Absolutely superb.
Thank you kindly sir!
If you could take one person with you on a deserted island, I choose this guy!
Bro your workshop is amazing the true definition of Manpower keep up the great work it’s quite impressive
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much!
Now that is a pipe I would be honored to smoke out of! Much more character than the one I currently enjoy.
