Welcome to another fun little restoration project that the whole family can enjoy. This time its the turn of this 90 year old Lake Elliot screw jack that i managed to dig out of a barn that was getting renovated. Very little information is out there for this particular jack all I've managed to find out is what I could find on the classic British jack website the info is posted below.
Lake & Elliot N17080
Description
This is a 2 stage screw jack. On one side is cast N17080 and on the other LAKE & ELLIOT LTD BRAINTREE ENGLAND. On top of the winding bevel gear is FABRIQUE EN ANGLETERRE suggesting that this jack may be for a French Vehicle. It is 8.25" closed. Information that has come to light says that N17080 is a Ford stock number for Fordson jacking systems.
Applicable Vehicles:
Fordson tractors built between 1931 and 1945.
Jack Handle Type:
Rectangular bar.
So anyway I hope you enjoy this little restoration and will join me again next time for another fun filled project.
Enjoy
RRC

Brought back great memories of helping my father in the garage in the early 1970s. I saw the rusty starting piece and thought yes, but dad's was green. Then you painted it green and I have such a smile on my face. Thank you.

This is a very useful video for me. I have a very similar jack in a similar condition thanks to a leaky toolbox in the back of my truck. These jacks are old school but they're not throwaways, very strong and reliable. It's always good to watch someone else do a job like this before doing it oneself, even if it is straightforward. Thank you.

@@BettySwollocks13 Odd reply, there may be others on par, but this and other things he restores, he restores as close to new as possible. That CR250, that was obvs way more complex than this, was done to perfection.

@RRCRestoration Жыл бұрын

I'll agree with @Betty Swollocks there are better restorers out there when it comes to this type of restoration, lets face it we are all thinking of my mechanics and to be fair he is a professional machinist with full access to lathes, mills, forges, etc etc and he is fully set up for this type of work where as im a professionally trained painter and mechanic so I think on work like this i do ok not he best but certainly not the worst and as @Halfdead Rider mentioned when it comes to my car and bikes restorations they are top notch as that's where my main skill set and workshop setup allows me to shine.

@HalfdeadRider Жыл бұрын

@@RRCRestoration I still kind of disagree though, simply because there was nothing more needed to be done to improve the jack. Sometimes a restorations can go too far, especially on an item like this, but of course that can also be subjective.

@@BettySwollocks13 Not too clever tbh!, the guy said the channel is the best, not that he is the best restorer. Also you did not simply say he wasn't, you said "there are some far better restorers out there", not exactly true, so yes on levels, an odd reply!

I love how very organized all of the tools are! My Grandfather had a large collection of tools, but it was near impossible to find anything as it was not organized. Sadly, my Father was worse. It was faster to just buy the tool needed for a specific job rather than waste hours searching to determine if we already had it _somewhere_ .
