1930s Electric Shear [Restoration]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- This restoration is on a 1930s Stanley "Fish-mouth" Unishear. This model is number 16A and is made to cut steel up to 16 gauge, but is over-powered and can do much more!
This tool was sent to me by a viewer and arrived with rust that seemed to be fairly recent. It was also filled with mud wasp nests, which is something I rarely see in tools since I live in the frozen tundra. The shear is almost entirely aluminum with only a select few hardened steel parts. The motor cleaned up well, but one of these days I would really like to do a proper electric motor restoration where I rewind it all and have it dipped in lacquer.
Apparently this tool needs an infinite supply of oil to function well, so I replaced the bearings with sealed ones in case I forget to oil it one time. It was missing an oil cap for one of its bearings, which was easily made and replaced. I also replaced all the screws in the handle with brass ones, just because I like to shear in style.
I hope to use this around the shop to help me with some sheet-metal work for future restorations.
I would like to thank Evapo-Rust for sponsoring this video.

Ah you made my day. Another great restoration and it works. No way I would have taken on that job. Makes a person wonder, just who dreams these tools up. I am getting on in years, 81 in fact and really enjoyed restoring old things, now just have to watch you young guys do your thing. I just wonder who the hell are those 39 guys the voted thumbs down. I would like to hear from a few of them the hear what they find wrong with the project. This tool isn't going into some museum, but put back into service. Again great job and thanks for sharing and keep up the great work....Ken
Need an applause track when your wrench first comes on set. Like the od 1980's shows.
I like how he tests the tools at the end of each video, Alot of similer chanels don't for some reason and for me at least that kind of defeats the reason for restoring the item.
What's a similer?
I suspect quite a few channels stage their Restorations
Could you imagine if this was narrated by Morgan Freeman? “ All it took was some heat and time…. Heat and time. And that’s all Hand Tool Rescue had was heat and time.”
😅
This one was playing tough...
But by shear determination...
I assume you know the way out sir.

Got to have a laugh though...ain't you...

Glenn! There is not enough room in this tiny shop for all three of us. OK. Your comment was very good. I will get the Pun out of here. ;-) I'm cuttin' loose. Gettin' my bearings and drivin' my PINto "home". Yes, that was bad. All of it. You are good, Glenn. I hope you smiled. Have a great 4th of July everyone! You, too, Glenn. :-)

I'm Englander...
But I wished some American Facebook friends and everyone here a happy 4th July...👍🇺🇸🇬🇧👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
Where's Bungle?
Perfect intro again! I love those "industrial" looking old tools! Too bad most of them I can find are not ment for the European power grid
Swap the motor and cord?
Ottima
Get a power inverter... Ez pz
Don’t be swayed by the electric ⚡️ pixies 🧚♀️ just because they have some fancy end bits doesn’t mean ya can’t adapt and still electrocuted yourself 😂 stay frosty boys and girls 🤡
55
the intro just never gets old
I feel like I'm thrown back in time and watching a Canadian version of Family Ties.
i like how it debuted on April Fool's but it was too good to just use once so he kept it 😁
I always smile really big when it starts. It's brilliant.
I'll be sad when it does get old.
@@HandToolRescue I don't think you'll have to worry about that in our life time. I love it everytime I see it.
Just in case nobody has told you... BEST RUclips INTRO EVER! 😁👍😁
Might as well get a 55 gallon drum of WD40, dump the shears in & let 'em marinate.
Mmmmmm.
Using WD-40 is a bad idea over time it gunks up over time and leaves the area worse then it was
@@vuitheirt4704 he meant to help with disassembly.
@@HandToolRescue can I have banana? 😂😂😂
@@vuitheirt4704 , only if you don't clean it.. when I was a bicyclist i used WD40 on my chain to clean it.. but every 2 weeks I took it off and cleaned it in gas soak and wire brush.. never had to replace a chain except for mechanical failure.
Until the moment he started cutting the metal, I was still thinking "How are you supposed to cut the wool off of a sheep with that. "
Same lmao !
The build quality on that tool is top drawer, hard to believe it’s from the 30’s. Always liked Stanley tools. Fantastic resto job dude 👏
The "Punishear". Great restoration, would watch a longer version tbh, just to see more detail into how much work went into it.
That vibrating parts tumbler is the shit! Excellent video, watched it twice!
have that same exact one at my work, loudest damn thing on earth with no vibration pads underneath
How much time did this rescue need?
It must be one of the tools you restored to have the highest number of various screws. Now, everything is snap together and not made to be taken apart at all.
The gentle persuasion of a well placed hammer blow ... shear genius. Love this restoration .. cutting edge stuff there!
There's an old saying - "If at first you don't succeed - go and get a bigger hammer!"
Now then Clyde, puns like that just don't cut it around here... (I'll get my coat, sorry)
I love old machines.Pure works of art.Just look at all the small details ,all the nice castings,everything made of metal,even the positions of screws.Every single bit is well planed in order to make it sturdy and not like today when all thinking is directed in cost reducing/ profit maximating. Love your channel,you never ever dissapoint.
That's why those old companies went out of business.
@@BuildTheSandbox Yes,they built machines that simply lasted too long and worked too well.
That thing moves horrifyingly faster than I thought it would XD Awesome job!!
Amazing that this tool is from the '30's. Could you imagine what a power tool from today will be like in 90 years. It will be dust!
haha, right you are! today nothing is made to last anymore
Not gonna lie, totally thought I would be seeing a sheep at the end of this when I first started watching.
I thought exactly the same thing and was shocked when he used it on metal!!
Steqeen
You might want to do a video on your old drill press the bearings don’t sound too hot. Great video as always👍🏻
“Hammer Fixes Everything” will be the title of Mr. Hand Tool Rescue’s biography.
Not gonna lie, when I saw "shears" I thought sheep shears. lol
Absolutely beautiful! I just love watching your restorations and love when you give tips, as the one after sanding the motor!
Appaently I need me a scaling banana.
I need a bunch of them.
Yes. I am a dad.
you make me laugh with introduction of the Video, thanks for share !!!
What do you do with the tools you restore? Sell, collect? Love your videos, o’ master of tool restos.
I've sold some but kept most.
Wow. She cuts. Feel the wrath tho for not repacking with Nutella the bearing you couldn't budge.
Haha, it gets oiled heavily.
I wondered too . No greese. But the oiler tube. Reminds the guy from 1930. The guy from 1970 didnt catch that. Being me.
Where would ya get the bearings for this i have the same one . Its my captain NEMO cutter. Only my best of best friends can use it . With a list of my warnings.
Do you have to consult with the customer before making any modifications or replacing original parts?
Of course!
Народ надо ему "Дружбу" заслать, причем в самом убитом состоянии.))
Алексей Шишков Да любой инструмент со стройки, который побывал в руках у талибов (таджиков), востановлению не подлежит.
Very nice restoration that was pretty amazing and it’s also pretty amazing that you know where everything goes back together. Every time I try to do a major restoration I always end up with a few extra parts LOL
Pics and video my friend! I started taking pics of video of my tear downs so that, if need be, I can go back to them for reference.
A tool from the 30's with Allen head bolts? This thing must have been expensive back then....
And Torx! The screws holding the cutting inserts in were Torx!
I am wondering if was previously restored and the parts were replaced?
@@dfbess yuppers, im betting thats exactly what happened
Regardless of some likely replacement parts, I'm impressed by how much of the engineering of this tool is still viable today.
@@maggs131 Although the bolt being undone at 3:34 looks like only an allen would fit
I haven't liked Maple Syrup since season 3, he's changed
Underappreciated comment
Nutella is the same though!
I saw the notification and was filled with shear excitement - well done, buddy!
Love the intro, love that you don't shove muzak in your videos. Big thanks for that! 😁
Great job on the restore!
Thanks again! 👍
What is the intro, it’s on the tip of my tongue but I can’t think of it!!
The_real_Andrew Yeah, exactly! I feel like I’ve seen and heard something similar before. I just can’t think of it!
You need to restore something big next, like a garden tractor or rotavator
Oh it will happen!
damn, my dude just finished that enormous two man chainsaw!
I absolutely LOVE these videos! PLEASE do more narration-you have a great voice and I love hearing your thought process.
Oh you, I can’t hate garbage on the floor
Next restoration: small arbor press so you don't have to hammer bearings, use gear pullers, etc.
If I had a dollar for every mud wasp nest I found inside of something!
this restoration is pretty.... cutting edge
I'll see myself out
That reply was sheer genius!
Takes a bow and quietly leaves stage left...…….
Soak bolts. Screw bolts out. Pry apart using hammer. Use both hands. Wear eye patch. Derust everything. Add intro. Upload.
Must be kinda surprising to find an old wasp nest in a power tool.
Not if you live anywhere near dirt daubers / mud wasps. They _love_ tools for houses. Bit of oil keeps other insects away maybe? No idea.
Если это и правда ножницы 30х годов - то скажу одно... за 100 лет ничего не изменилось ... ну только стало все гораздо хуже в качестве и с меньшим сроком службы...мне понравились пружинные петли на щеточные узлы...
I say this every time. Thanks to Too Many Cooks, I could probably watch just an 35m of that opening lol. It's just too good. TOO GOOD I SAY.
Good job, man. What I really appreciate in your videos : you don't wear these awful black gloves that other youtubers cannot touch any nut without.
Haha, well you should wear them when dealing with chemicals, but not all the time.
Редуктор так и не смог починить, подшипник вытащить ума не хватило.
Да у них тут всегда какие то АДОВЫЕ МАШИНЫ. Смотришь и до конца не понимаешь зачем это чудо техники!!!😄😄😄
А русский ванька бы вытащил, да вот бяда - нету и небыло такой техники в 1930х "на руси".
Этот индус думает что подшипники на сухую ещё лет 50 проработают.
Good video. What is your time invested in the restoration not counting “soak” times? Keep it up brother! Oh, we call them dirt dobbers in Georgia. Never heard of mud wasps but I guess it’s the same bug.
Here in California we call them mud daubers
This guy could easily have his own tv show with his skills and personality. Intros are hilarious.
Sadly, with how networks are. They would fabricate drama and edit things to make it like this restoration was harder than it really was. Plus would make Evaporust look like the bad guy and replace Garbage on the Floor with some eye candy that is not the wife. (Even though Garbage on the Floor left not long after the filming of this episode.)
16:37 - GASP! He shaved his beard! I mean, not completely off but it's much shorter. BLASPHEMY!!!!
Awesome restoration. Thank you for the 4K content.
Not available in 4k (2160p) for me. Not even 1440p. Only 1080p.
Interesting...
@@xenonram upgrade ? mine even lower
Thanks for bringing shear enjoyment into my life! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
handy tool, great job, how do you remember where it all goes do you re watch the video
If it doesn’t come apart, or fit, force it. If it still doesn’t come apart, or fit, get a bigger hammer! If it breaks, it needed to be replaced anyway!
I always love your videos. Definitely my favorite restoration channel! You keep me inspired.
Did you not apply any lubrication to that unshielded bearing? Looks like this should be filled with oil?
I think one of the funniest aspects of these videos, for me at least, is that into the deconstruction and restoration I suddenly forget completely what the hell he's restoring. I have to pause to see the title. This may happen more than once during the video. I find this quite humorous. Totally engrossed in a restoration but not even being aware what's being restored.
That's so funny, because I had to move the mouse back to the title to remind myself just what the heck is this thing.
Love your intro. It's interesting that many older tools (especially the obscure ones) are more complex & yet quite well made.
plunder1956 I always wonder if that is what makes them so obscure. The complexity and over building may have put them out of most people’s price range and few were sold. 🤔
@@buckbundy8642 I think back in the day any electric tools were professional/industrial stuff far beyond the price range of the hobbyists so they were not made in the quantities of, say, modern electric drills. Also, as industrial machines, the were probably used a lot, maybe several hours a day, so many wore out despite the durable construction.
Yep, that's the model Grandpa used. Now power shears are just a cordless drill attachment.
Thank you for yet another great video! It's so nice to see, that your main focus is to repair and clean the piece you're working with, keeping all the patina and history that has been built up over the years.
0:06 I just love his intro face😂
loving your intro. the restoration is fantastic as well
Very nice and well done as always, fun to watch and very interesting! Have a good one buddy and see you next time:D
The beginning made me laugh so hard 😅 and at 22.18 looked like R2D2 🤔😅 really nice result. And I couldn't believe you got this thing workin'. That's a good one 👌
the part with the hammer fixing everything reminded me of Jeremy Clarkson.
BLIMEY!!! So many parts and small thingamabobs for such a small tool. I mean yes it's a powerful little thing and yes it comes in handy but bloody hell . I felt sorry for the persons brain, that came up with this tool. There's so such going on in it. Would love to see the latest version of a cutter and dismantle it , to see what (if any) changes/modifications have been made. Sorry HTR, got a little off track there. Great restoration as ever. Brass screws were a nice touch too. 💙
Haha thank you!
Me: You should go to sleep
Also me: You should watch HTR's new video.
Лезвие из твёрдого сплава точит вручную. Точно больной.
can someone help me out? How is this tool called at 21:56 ? hand vise? vise grips? i can't find the name for that. :)
That is a reproduction of the Little Dicks adjustable spinner. Hand Tool Rescue makes and sells them on his website. The one you’re referring to is the small version. Nice tool, I have three of them, all large in both lefty and righty versions. The small one is the newer model and seems to be always sold out, so I don’t have that one - yet.
@@Kobafied thanks!
Cuts like a knife through a hot cheese roll. Whatever that means. ;-0 (Firesign Theater). Great Job!! Glad you lost your Bearings, but still managed to maintain an even keel. ;-) Glenn?
1930' human make outstanding tools wow
Made in USA bearing!
I spent most of this wondering where you were going to fit the sheep in!
😂😂😂🐏🐏
The best youtuber ever, thank you sir!
Witam i pozdrawiam!!Swietnie wykonana renowacja nozyc do ciecia blachy,wygladaja jak nowe i beda dalej sluzyc w domowym warsztacie,rzetelnosc i dokladnosc daje dobry efekt,dobry pokaz filmu ,tak trzymac!!
Analogic, no electronic, could use it for a lifetime.
Well done as usual, you have to do some credit for your workbench too😉.
Nice ...but next time if you cut metal beware that the wire is away from the sharp edges
Oh my god I love that intro 💕
Like the Diresta ice pick cameo at 19:20
Excellent video as always, keep up the good work!
Give the tool to Ave so he can review it, love to see a collab
Thank you very much !!!!
Good work !!! Good sounds !!! Continue !!!
Mice! First part sounds like having mice in the roof
I'm sorry, but after experiencing My "I make new one" Mechanics, this doesn't do much to me anymore.
Does he have garbage on the floor tho?
Didn't think so
It would be hilarious if in the intro, you had the thing you were restoring as the 'Special Guest Star'
Yes!
Awesome work and relaxing video. It came out great, well done!
Arrrrr(pirate greet) for them '90s, "any TV show" opening theme song :P
Arrrrrrr
Do you know how many letters there are in the Pirate's alphabet? 9 Aye, Arrrr and the 7 seas. Dad joke #2
@@tomtruesdale6901 Yeah, I'm at the Dad jokes level myself :P
i thought "fish mouth shear" was supposed to be a tool for shearing fish's mouths. i was really very confused and concerned, but intrigued at the same time.
The producers of that kind of tools are gone bankrupt long time ago, because their products last forever a n d are repairable!
Most important question: Were did you get all that cool stuff from?
what are you babbling about? Stanley still is in business and still makes tools.
What made you like the video? Mine was the intro
Should put an tracking overlay some audio distortion from VHS tape stretch and even video distortion then would be legit 80/90 intro haha
Like a sharp knife through hot butter! Nice work!!
"Hammer fixes everything." :)
I love the intro like 80´s !! hahaha. Excelent work. Greetings from Argentina.
Love This intro ! 😍Makes a touch of humor in the video 😀
Зачетно восстанавливаешь инструмент ,а вот вопрос куда ты его реализует или сам им пользуешся . Да и кстати я один РУССКИЙ смотрю твои видео ?
Не, нас много!!!
Hammer does fix everything, why else would Thor carry one around 😆
wow!, impressive, works like new. great job thanks for sharing.
¡¡Excelente reparación...!! -- (Un saludo cordial para usted) --
@8:22 And if that doesn't work, get a bigger hammer. :-) You Are Awesome! The 80's Sitcom intro is priceless!
