    When I was in machine shop way back in the 70’s, I had to machine this hammer. Mr. Hempton was a great teacher. FANTASTIC job and great memories. 👌👌

    You took a rusty sad hammer head and transformed it into an example of modern art!!! That design makes it look like it was just forged!!! Great composition and execution. You’re an inspiration for all of us!! Thanks for sharing!! My metal detection scores are nothing like yours!!! The Old Army Scout…

    Hello, my grandfather passed away 6 years ago now and he was a man deeply connected with the Italian Alps and he passed on this passion to me.
    Today, while I was organizing his things, I found a backpack that he used, and in my opinion, it is a gem for its time.
    Unfortunately, it is in very bad shape and has two holes made by mice.
    It would be my dream if you could restore it, even in one of your videos.
    I hope you will read my message.
    Thank you very much.

    It was completely unnecessary to remove the rust since you sanded down later heavily.
