Antique Copper Incense Pot Restoration with AMAZING outcome

He has ruined a couple of things he has "restored"
Это строительный прибор- теодолит!- которым проверяют уровень горизонта при планировке дорог и строительства фундаментов!- когда-то работал с таким прибором👍👍👍🤝🇷🇺👈!!!
I do not know....take antique military optics and paint them John-Deere green, destroing original markings on the box and on top of all that...new "silver" Phillips head screws?
It’s just unfortunate that all the identifying marks are blasted away or painted over. I thought restoring meant returning it to it’s original state, not a brand new different state. The bright green was very confusing color choice, so was the black.
Agreed, and p!$$ poor paint job, after all that work. I don't understand it. But it seems most of these channels are just in it for the views sadly. And most can't paint. One of my oet peeves is watching him sand and stain the wood against the grain. Urks me
Cool music!
I love that you removed that little piece with your fingers at 04:35, then used your fingers to place the piece into a pair of tweezers just to move the piece a few inches onto the table instead of putting it on the table with your fingers that were already holding it. That was funny. 😂
Looks is like a theodolite. A gadget to measure elevation levels from one spot to another. Useful tool for engineers, builders, town planners etc. But, it's still a guess.
That's the word I wanted! The joys of getting old ha ha x
you're right, this is it, moreover, Soviet-made))
Russian, it looks like it. But I only got a glimpse of printing on top. Maybe owned by a Japanese?
@@TheParkAttendant The Russians and Japanese go way back. Even before WWII they had a conflict where the Japanese were hurting the Russians to some degree.
@@davidhbrown9767 Thanks for the info
Iam always interested in history.
Hola amigo, you're leaving yourself wide open for people to have a dig at you. The " experts " or koow alls. They won't give you kind advice, they get their "jollies" slagging people.
Regards from Argentina.👏👏👏👏
Not as good as i thought it would be. No problem, you are happy enough with the result to share it with us viewers. Greatings from the Netherlands.
Increíble la cantidad de piezas, exelente trabajo felicitaciones a los expertos profesionales, una obra de arte, saludos desde Chile.
It was “strange” before you “restored” it and even MORE strange afterwards!!
So much nope in this video. This is what we gunsmiths call a "bubba job".
Okay, it's a mortar sight, possibly chinese judging by the stencil on the case before it was obliterated. But that's no reason to destroy the darn thing.
Disassembly was obviously not thought out beforehand, and I think that buddy has something against screws. I say that due to the number of them he destroyed using his Wal-Mart bargain bin screwdrivers during both disassembly and reassembly.
Cleaning: okay, I get paint stripper, tooth brushes, paint brushes, etc. But a sandblaster and sandpaper on precision optics?? These parts will never be true again! The masking for the paint was, jeez, I don't know, the only word that comes to mind is "stupid". Bits that should have been masked weren't and bits that shouldn't have been were. And that colour! Bloody hell, he couldn't arse himself to go to the hardware store for something close to the original, but rather fished under the workbench until he found a can of something that said green on it.
So for reassembly he chews up more screws, gets fingerprints all over the glass optics and uses Phillips screws in place of the original common ones.
This was NOT a restoration. A restoration is where you make the piece as good as new. I certainly wouldn't rely on this sight to get rounds on target, you would have better luck lobbing them in with a giant slingshot.
Buddy, get a job as a lion tamer or an accountant or possibly consider banking, but please don't do anything with your hands that requires precision.
I have to agree. It would have been better to just clean it on the outside a little and keep it as a vintage piece. Now it's completely ruined and has no value at all. Hopefully there were at least some lessons learned on how not to do restorations...
As an artillery man myself I died inside seeing this sighting device get destroyed.
Yep! Gotta agree with all you said. I am no restorer, but even I can see this is a bit amateurish. Nice camera work though.
+1
I couldn´t watch this video until the end. I love restoration videos, but to see how amateurish this thing is taken apart was just enough. He doesn´t know what he´s got here and doesn´t even research before destroying it with his rough disassembly. I watched to the point where he sandblasted the parts and had just seen enough. This is the first video ever on YT I gave a "thumbs down". For myself I can say I could not make it better than him, so I would not even try it. I would give it to someone who really knows about such devices.
Would have been better if we had had a good look at the markings on the lid. Almost positive it is a weapon sight for mortars. Markings might have identified the country of origin.
I saw a US designation on the sight while he was working on it
Mortars or artillery
Was hoping this would be a satisfying, high quality military restoration, but instead it was like watching a child re paint an old lawnmower! My mind now wants to take 50 showers!
Great description for this video.
Ouch! 😳
Lol
I agree, the way he shows off the horrible paint job at the end, didn't match the colors, didn't clean the lenses either. Didn't let the paint harden, finger prints, dust stuck to the outside and so much more. I was very disappointed. But seeing the wrong tools he used to take it apart, we should have known what the outcome was going to be. There's only a small amount of guys who actually put in effort. "My Mechanics" is is phenomenal at what he does, "Meine mechanic" (in another language can't remember how he spells it atm), "Chip *something*" who does the Tonka trucks, "TheFabrink" is pretty good, and maybe a few others. But that's about it
Could it be a sighting system for a mortar?
My thought exactly
Colours should have been kept the same. Screws on the lid seem out of place, should have been slotted not "Phillips" headed
Great job of restoring whatever that thing is.
Thank
Don't give up your day job
That is probably one of the worst 'restoration' jobs that I've ever seen.
Stick to old lawnmowers, and send items like this to Veradona.
Whatever value it had, it is now practically worthless.
Totally agree.../.
Probably some weapon aiming tool (artillery ?).
10 minutes and I've seen enough, you have all the gear and no idea.
Bungler....!!!
Me encanta estas cosas que se tiran a la basura y se vuelve a reabilitar
There are a couple of good guesses, so far. It's obviously a mountable optic of some kind, probably military.
Started out interested, but long video, nice sandblasting but why you would sand with 60 grit and spray 😦 gotta say sub par 🤷🏻♂️
Very bad restoration. Destroyed the entire military aspect of this item. A child could do a better job.
Its a surveyours transit from the late 40's early 50's.
but what is it? and what is this object for?
Love from INDIA👍👍
Very Strange
I do not understand how you could paint this level equipment from WW2 with this f..color. You only cleaned but didnt honored the manufaturer and owner. Forget this job.
looks like a rangefinder/sight gage from a 37mm russian mortar brought back as a souvenir from the korean war
If I remember, Russians did it with leader box, since WWII
Amazing. You broke that aluminium ring and sanding the pieces it was looking like new. Magic?
Leveling and figuring trajectory of field artillery . Just a guess.
sure glad you know where all those tiny pieces go! 😳
We will try harder in the next videos
Artillery sight or heavy MG sustained fire sight?
Убил 99 % стоимости этого прицела
C'est sure et en plus elle perds de son authenticité
Как тот азиат-"реставратор" с рацией Р-109, которую покрасил в розовый цвет. Покрасить и выбросить...
а что это вообще?
@@elenakorkach294 Прицел от какого-то артиллерийского орудия или миномёта.
... такой прибор-считается раритетом, но теадалит после такой реставрации придётся по новой калибровать и тестировать!!!
Скорее всего это прицел... со всеми вытекающими...
Great video! Fantastic! Good luck! How long did it take you to get the job done?
Sorry, but no. I don't like the way you handle the bolts. You put back the original bolts, without restore them. I can see the surface rust on them. you could polishing up the not painted surface's. With those would be nice to see how coming together the parts.
Success!
jatear com areia um aparelho de precisão????
I'm not an expert on restoring old military objects, but I just witnessed you ruining an old Russian PAB.
Yup it is part of ranging device used to lay in mortar fire, I believe. It sits on a tripod and has set of lenses so the operator can see over an obstruction and control the units fire. This idiot ruined it!
Perhaps it's a sight for a mortar?
Great job, Stay Safe , have a nice day !!!.
I can't Watch this....
Idioto, коллекционную вещь так испортить , смыть оригинальную краску это надо быть я не знаю кем
I believe this is a mortar artillery gun sight for used by the army....
yep !
Surveyors Level.
Not the best restoration
One piece of history totally ruined...don’t give up your day job....obviously restoration is not for you
Looks like one of those bombardier sights
At a guess, I think its a surveyors tool. Meant to be on a stick with a nail on the bottom so it can be held steady.
Lost interest, you linger far to long on certain parts of the restoration
Looks like a mortar sight
We will try harder in the next videos, thanks for the feedback!
My boy, I'm an old man, now the prices of gasoline and electricity will rise. People will come to you with old things. Start repairing cast-iron furnaces.
Thank you
I think its rangefinder .
well done good job
Not worth sitting through 20 commercials.
it seems this is a sighting or calibrating mechanism for an old mortar, I have not served in an army, just a guess. Anyone served in Army can tell us?
Yeah bro !
ترميم جيد..لكن ماهذا ؟ ويستعمل لاي غرض؟
You have no idia what it is and it's value. You simply wasted your time as well as ours. Just ruined an antique. 👎
So what was it ??????
Очень варварское отношение к предмету. Надо было остановиться на чистке и выпрямлении вмятин... Уничтожив оригинальный окрас и маркировку - всё равно что в древнем храме сколоть письмена и фрески и потом заштукатурить стену. Увы, но предмет после такой реставрации больше не представляет из себя былой ценности :(
If all else fails. Use John Deer Green........ WOW.
too bad, I think you should have kept the original colors and cleaned or changed some screws, otherwise good job .
And with that it lost all of it historical value.. The paint streaper was to much for me, i quit..
I don't know what I'm watching being restored, but all the lenses and dials suggested to me it's a aiming and sighting device for a mortar maybe, along with the box it goes in?
Thank
Love the opening music.
Way too many critics in this world .
You got that right amigo, I hear them saying "patina patina" good God, they'd rather see an item rotting away to preserve patina rather than preserve the object. Assholes.
Closing music: Bela Lugosi's Dead.
Interesting. 😃
Excelente restauración, muy bonito el aparato; pero...¿para qué sirve ese chunche?
I know I'm late seeing this the first time, but I just want to say ouch! That thumb looks like you took a chunk out of it. Yikes! 😳 That said, love the videos!🥰🥰🥰
Good job. It's Mortar sight I suppose...
Glad to watch you work may I ask why you don't let us know what you are using ?
he made no effort to clean the fasteners nor did he make any effort to straighten and fix out the slots in the screws and half the time used ill fitting screw drivers only making the fasteners worse
Think it is for Japanese WW II mortar (medium 90 mm cal.) but color is so wrong, it should be military dark green, not Ford Focus RS metallic
prego ao invés de cola ??
Looks like a SABS bomb sight from WWII
This appears to look like a machinist lathe tool. Perhaps a gauge for end wobble. Or could be a giant gun part.
Some said it's foe the military maybe for Mortor range finder? I thought it was for land surveying, which could have also been used in the military. But sadly we got ZERO explanation of what it is or what it does and p!ss poor results. I hate to be mean, but if you're going to call yourself a "restoration" person, you should do better.
Now I know how much time it takes for your projects, saw the bandage and then the scab, and by the end, scab was gone...
I'm guessing that was some kind of scale, because of the leveling bubble....
Great Job
Looks like the consensus of critique here is that this channel is a very cheap copy cat of far better and more legitimate restoration channels. Tool use is ham handed and cheaply done. Typical close ups of screws being removed and obligatory and mostly unnecessary sandblasting just because sandblasting “looks cool”. So congrats, you don’t restore, you destroy. And you just try to piggy back honest work with hamfisted nonsense. Please stop.
It's a rifle sight you ruined it should have left it a lone......
This could be an ancient potpourri, is what it looks like.
Just found an image of a PAB-2 OPTIC CIRCLE Artillery Scope Periscope Sight + Case Russian Soviet Army. Case looks practically identical.
I was thinking a sight for something too
It had Chinese writing stamped on the top of the box
So, Chinese Army, maybe.
I see the marking on the lid. Are you sure it's Chinese, not Korean, for example?
@@doriWyo yes. I studied Asian languages. Definitely not Korean, nor is it Japanese.
is that a bombardiers sight? haven't seen this model
I'd get some pan head screws for that lid instead of flat heads.
It's certainly an optical instrument of some kind. Frankly you had no idea what you were doing, it's not a lawn mower. It was still filthy as you were putting it back together. Props for that. Regardless of what it is, restoring something like this is WAY beyond you abilities.
I would like to comment on your shity comment. Regardless of what you think I disagree with your opinion.
@@antonettekhan5137 So sorry your feelings got hurt. Poor you.. Grow up. At least TRY to be an adult. Snotty shit.
@@antonettekhan5137 Sadly while he may be an ass, he was being kind!
from the colour it looked like it was military possibly a mortar or small artillery aiming sight what i saw of the writing could be Russian/Japanese or Chinese
Telemetro militar artilary???
Ughhh so many commercials..I don't need to watch you take out every screw...make the shorterrrrrr
Sinto muito. Mas voce é extremamente descuidado no desmonte. É um aparelho de medição.
Great job !!! 🙌
A optica goniometer from guns? Tjs.
what was it used for?
Among other things, why would you put rusty screws back into a restoration???
Keep trying, though!
GreatPotentialButUnclearontheConcept
Excelente restauración de este extraño objeto, saludos y respetos desde Venezuela. 💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘💯💯💯💯💯
Yet another "restoration" video where the item hasn't been restored. When will these "restoration" clowns learn that restoration means to return it to original condition? Scraping and sand-blasting the rust off the thing only to slap on some shitty paint, all while taking zero care to protect the piece, isn't a restoration.
it is a mortar sight. 80mm mortar. scales should be in milse
Thanks for the comment
não limpou as lentes???
