Description
=== 🎖️ About Channel 🏆 ===
My goal is to bring old, vintage American tools back to life. I hope to motivate, support and build a community of garage and restoration enthusiasts.
While this channel focuses on American-made tool restorations, the techniques can be used on any of your restoration projects. You will also see that my restorations are tools that I use around my shop. My passion developed over the years from being raised near the American automotive industry in Detroit, MI and Toledo, OH.
Thank you so much for your support in growing this channel to help more people restore their vintage tools!

Very high level of Restoration work.
Great restoration.. Good to see you using Craftsman tools. Those are about all I own.
Great job keeping original as possible. That's a genuine restoration folks.
Those older ones are built 100 as well as new...Beautiful piece!
Nice upgrade
Nice job. I've done 5 or 6 of these "blockhead" grinders, never had to replace a bearing. Same goes for vintage Craftsman drill presses and bench saws, those bearings seem to last forever, well, at least 50+ years.
Same, they be noisy but still tight
I don't own many American tools as I am English & use old tools I restore myself, but I do like the look of this old bench grinder. Restoration looks lovely, good job :)
The UK has more than its fair share of amazing tools. I'd love to have a made in England woodworking collection.
Some of them are actually quite decent.
I just picked up a 1/3 hp block grinder just like yours from a woman in Mobile Alabama selling her late fathers woodshop tools. First thing I noticed was the cord was super old and stiff and my first thought was to make a new one out of so cord. Haha. When i pluged it in the motor would hum but not rotate. I noticed the wheels were a little hard to turn and the bearing might be somewhat worn. It is in good shape otherwise except the outside is heavily oxidezed from the shop being right on a brackish water bayou . The climate here on the Gulf of Mexico is hard on metals. Might be the reason the bearings are stiff. Your paint job turned out excellent by the way, I might paint mine the same color.
Another great restoration. I knew something was different with the narration then looked up ASMR. Interesting
Don't worry, I had to look it up, too. Ha ha.
One tip for you. Dip the wires you strip back and tin the end with solder. Your electrical connections will be perfect, and you will never have a problem ever.
oooooooeeee dat new brass wheel shoore looked purdeee
I literally laughed out loud.
It better be pretty for how much Amazon charged me for it.
Got 2 of the same grinders...one refurbished one original. They are tanks!
I'm blown away at how strong this thing is now.
It's nice to see that you are working with the tools that you restored. Great video as always, thanks for the detailed information on the restoration!
First, thank you for all the kind words this week on all the other videos.
Secondly, I'm glad you joined the channel. It's motivating to have people like you behind me.
@@OneNationRestorations In our time, there is little good content in the general information noise. Therefore, I am delighted to be part of your support team.
Oddly satisfying to hear the wire connectors click to the switches
It's going to be a learning journey to figure out what people like. It's a world I've never explored before.
Cool video but if we were in the same shop , id have to speed up the process
You did a great job of restoration, I can imagine how long this restoration took, but the result was worth it 👍 I like it 👍
It was the second largest project I've taken on! It was a nice change-up from the hand tools.
Very great work 👏 👍
Thanks, M restorations. I appreciate you stopping by.
Well done..👍👍👍
Thanks for the nod. Testing the water with this one.
Great work.
Good job mash'Allah
Another very enjoyable video. Keep up the great work and thanks for the content!
Thank you, Jack. I've appreciate the support you always show the channel. It means a lot to me.
An successful restoration bro . i like it 👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it, RCW!
There’s a bunch of European ASMR restoration channels on YT. Unfortunately, while I like watching them, they don’t talk, so if you want to know how a job was done, etc., you have to read the description. For myself, I prefer the narration. I appreciate this; thank you!
Looks great well done.
Oh wow I didn't know that anyone make an actual brass wire wheel that was not plated. I have to have one even though it cost more than my grinder. Haha.
nice restoration dear i like it
I always appreciate you stopping by. Thank you!
Damn informative. Great job.🇺🇸👍
I do have a question I. The rebuild that I don’t see in the video. I have almost the same grinder past down from my father and grandfather. How do you wire into the coil. My cables were all cracked and destroyed my hen I opened it up. I would love to hear how you wired into the electric coil. Thank you. Great job on the restoration
Out of curiosity, why didn't you refinish the base plate? I know it's out of site, but why not?
Shouty ASMR, that’s a new one.
Yes!
Yes, indeed!
Excellent restoration Friend, don't build them like that anymore, have a nice day & Christmas. Brian UK !!!.
I have the identical grinder I got when my Dad died. I love the dang thing but would love to put a wire wheel on it and have no idea where to find something like that , can you help e with that ?
I have four of these in various styles and horsepower configurations. I was hoping you had an idea on replacing the eye guards, which are often missing. Wondering if that switch is original. Some of the 60s ones have a plastic switch that is fragile, usually broken and unobtainable. Other than that, these are tanks. I never bothered trying to restore one, I just use ‘em.
Plexiglass
@@zubirhusein sure, if you have the frames. I suppose I could makeshift a hanger, but I’d like to the original style.
May I ask how to know the right place to attach the ground, please? I'm restoring an old Craftsman motor that I'd like to add a ground to, but it's unclear to me where I should attach it.
Niiiice 👌 😍 💯
What color and brand of paint did you use??
I have an old bench grinder in my garage that I would like to use but it scares the shit out of me. It vibrates like hell when I turn it on and it sounds god awful
What 2 colors of paint did you use? Looks very close to the original.
Kyrlon metallic aluminum and metallic dark metal. The dark metal is the best coating paint I've ever used. I wasn't 100% confident when I left the store with it, but I'm really happy with it.
@@OneNationRestorations thanks! It looks really fantastic. I bought a nearly identical grinder a couple of days ago and your video was perfect timing. Great work as always!
Do you have the part number for the bearings you used?
I looked up ASMR. Gotta say, for me, I prefer the other format. But may be because I enjoy your speaking voice. But I also feel like you have interesting commentary, and this style of video you lose that. Still enjoyed the video though.
I think I can do a better job of balancing the style and commentary I bring with a smaller amount of ASMR to scratch the itch for those consumers. Next week, it will be more like normal. I appreciate the feedback because it helps me stay true to what we are about here. Thank you for this comment - it came in at exactly the right time last night.
Good job. I say no to AMSR. Sorry, it's just over-done on YT today...
Glasses?
I actually saved that sticker/note from the previous owner with plans to put it back on at some point.
It was my wife's grandfather's bench grinder- and I certainly need a reminder once in a while lol.
I’m sure he’s proud of the care and attention you’ve given to the tool. Awesome story and great family heirloom to keep passing it on to future generations.
Not sure what you restored? You just took it apart and cleaned it. ., and some paint
Great restoration. But please skip the voice over in future videos.
