Rusty Hand Cranked Grinder Restoration
HTML-код

- Welcome. In this video I will be restoring an old rusty hand cranked grinder.
This project at first glance was going to be a pretty straight forward one, however almost immediately the handle broke off of it, and that just about sums up how the whole disassembly went. Many of the parts were very rusted to the grinder, especially the nut that held the grinding stone on. Furthermore, at some point in the past the table clamp had been repaired, and the bolts that attached it to the main body of the grinder were ground down carriage bolts, making it much more difficult to remove them.
Overall there was a large amount of work that went into this restoration, but I'm very satisfied with the results and it was great fun bringing it back to life.

Another good project! I was even more impressed when I noticed the limited selection of tools you're working with. I think the constructive feedback in some of the other comments is good, and will add a couple of thoughts. If possible, invest in a bench vise, a bench grinder with wire and polishing wheels, and finally a drill press. Those three things will decrease the difficulty and time factor for this kind of work significantly, without breaking the bank. Specific to this project, for your bolts and brackets, hot blueing might serve better than paint. I hope my thoughts are helpful, and I look forward to watching the next project
Thanks a lot, James! This project is a bit older and I have since then I have picked up a bench vise (quite recently) and bench grinder, though I still need to get a drill press. You are very correct in saying that they would/will speed up the work! A drill press is a top priority for me now, as it'll definitely come in handy, but I am a bit limited for space unfortunately, so it may be a little while before I get one. Hot bluing is another thing that I'd like to start doing in the near future as well. I've used cold bluing in a few of my most recent projects, but it's just not as good as heat bluing. Thanks again! :)
Nice going R.R. You are doing so much with so little but I think I said that before. The grinder turned out very nice! Keep going!!!
Thanks a lot, Roger - I see you're still on your video watching spree haha. This was quite a fun restoration for me, the hardest part was trying to find the new grinding wheel haha. Like always, thanks a lot for watching!
I was just given one of these. Your video is going to come in very handy for my restoration. Thanks for sharing!
Good luck on the refurbishment/restoration, Rich! This was a fun little project to take on and can definitely come in handy from time to time. Thanks a lot for watching!

👍
nice video
Thanks a lot!
Well done 👍
not bad. few mistakes but thats fine. when it comes knocking out pins or shafts its better to use a wooden or copper mallet, it will stop the end from peaning over. the other thing is that its better to avoid using vise grips where possible. also as a rule of thumb, its best not to paint the insides of things like this. the metal should be protected anyway by the grease and it avoids the paid having a reaction with what ever you lube it with and clagging up the gears and cogs. also a pro tip ive picked up over the years. is you have a spare pare of vice grips laying about. gent them nice and clean and put some hot glue on the jaws. it out of gives you a good grip and avoids the risk of the teeth taring up the metal part your working on. all in all tho, not a bad job a solid
Thank you for the feedback and tips! I'm constantly increasing my collection of tools and will definitely add a better suited hammer/mallet to the list of things I need to buy
Bravo. Excelente trabalho.
Muito obrigado!
I once saw something similar to this, it was smaller (about the size of one of those hand-cranked pencil sharpeners), and was attached to a wall.
I see, we’ll it would definitely make sense to permanently attach something like this in place rather than depending on the sketchy built in clamp they have hahaha. Thank you for watching!
Cuando lo vi sacando esos pedazos de tornillos y usando esas fresas y pequeños esmeriles, Pensé: "este señor tiene aptitudes para la dentisteria".....///.Colombia/3/octubre/2020.
¡Jajaja gracias! Aunque me temo que sería un dentista terrible 😆
Welcome to RUclips sir amazing restoration
Thank you very much!
Random Restoration You’re welcome 😇
I wish you would hold things firmly in a vice when dissassembling them.....
I definitely had a few too many close and unstable shots in this one! Thanks for watching!
Oooh! Nice vid! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
This is something that's from the 1900s.
Haha right, it's a bit newer than most items I work on these days!
Man, I’m from Brazil but I love this type of videos you make, congrats congrats 🍾
Welcome! Thanks for the kind words, I'm very glad you enjoyed the video.
Opa blz? Eu tbm faço restaurações de objetos antigos, da uma olhada no meu canal por favor, vê se vc gosta e se inscreve hehehe'
Awesome video I especially love how peaceful it is and the goat kids in the background just perfect
Thank you! The goats do like to make their way into the video haha
Cool job! I wish I had one of those!
Thanks a lot! Have a look around online, depending on where you live you should be able to find one in pretty good shape for pretty cheap :)
You're cool, keep going: I love doing something like recycling or renewing
Thanks for the kind comment! I definitely plan to continue on making videos
This would be the perfect add for wd-40
Haha right. I really should have used some sort of penetrating fluid
One of the best ads i have ever seen
Thanks, I appreciate it!
amazing stuff
Thanks a lot!
Lovely video
Hey, thanks!
Where did you get the replacement wheel?
It's been a while, but I think I got it on eBay. I remember this size grinding wheel being very difficult to find since it's way smaller that what would go on a proper bench grinder haha
kaka kaka kaka ka BOOM !!! haha ilove that part
Hahaha, thanks for watching!
Thank you😊

Where did you get the replacement stone?
Hey, I don't remember exactly where I bought it from, but it was either eBay/Amazon. It took a while to find a stone online that for sure fit this small grinder. Thanks for watching!
I have a very similar grinder that could be the same model. One of the teeth is broken off the large gear. Do you know of anyway to repair that?
I'd say really the only way to repair it would be welding it and sanding down the excess metal, and how long that repair lasts would depend on how good the weld is. Otherwise you'd have to replace the whole gear which, aside from machining a new one, would be likely near impossible to find. Good luck on the repair, and thanks a lot for watching!
Imagine fixing a rusty grinder with a grinder
Challenge accepted! haha
finally an ad i want to click on lol
Hahaha thanks!
Yeah same
Yo Nice first project i know u can do more better in future!
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I hope to slowly improve my restoration skills with each restoration I do.
Penetrating oil would really help disassembly.
Hahah yeah I don't think I had any on hand when I did this project, but I do now! Thanks for watching!
Побольше инструмента набери. Горелку газовую, щетку пластиковую, кисть, и wd40. А то жесть смотреть как на сухую болты крутят.
Я согласен. Мне, безусловно, нужны более полезные инструменты. Спасибо за просмотр!
I bet some dads made their kids spin the grinder while papa grinds his metals
Haha right, there's a way to keep them busy!
sorry but *their
Don’t be sorry thank you
Another Brazilian here (Just like the mate down here). Sorry for my ignorance but, what this "gear" is used for? Thanks! (I love your vídeos either, keep going man ;) )
Welcome! I hope I'm understanding your question correctly. This hand cranked grinder would be used to sharpen tools. The large gear you see under the removable cover is connected to the handle, and also mates with a grooved section on the shaft that the grinding stone is connected to. This allows the stone to turn when the handle is turned. Thanks for watching :)
Opa cara blz? Eu tbm faço restaurações, canal 100% Br, por favor da uma olhada se vc curtir se inscreve por favor!

Désolé de ne pas avoir apprécié la vidéo, mais merci pour les commentaires!
You call it “restoration videos” I call it rust porn
Hahaha that's one way to word it!
I wish channel names would have a slogan underneath their username, flip doodle: I watch rorn!
Métele Coca-Cola
¡Definitivamente podrías!
I have exactly same grinder at home. Also needs restoration! Or how Flip Doodle called it "rust porn"...
Awesome! It makes you wonder how many of these exact grinders are rusting away in people's sheds/garages, etc.
Rusty Grinder, I used to drink with the guy! He was notorious for abusing his nuts. I have lost count of the times that I told him to go see a doctor but he claimed that it no more than an unfortunate habit .
And just like that, the legend of Rusty Grinder was born hahaha
Abusing his nuts?
Yeah, I'm not entirely sure what that entails, nor do I probably want to haha
Bruh how can he call it nice when it fell off
Hahaha It's a well established fact that the value of an item significantly increases once the handle falls off!
