Sorry to keep adding comments. I'm some what of a tree nerd. Hand tools before the industrial age were typically handled with very specific types of wood for specific applications. Typically handles used for hammer handles ect were typically ash or oak where as handles made for striking or wooden mallets heads were made of Hornbeam. I appreciate all of these type of restoration videos. I simply wish the original thinking towards the tools design were honored in hopes to preserve the knowledge not just the appearance.

@@h.wbloodgood4328 before my grandfather passed away he showed me a house he helped build in Vermont in the U.S. that was built entirely of green lumber. He told me the key to building with green lumber was that each level of the house had to be built out of the same milling and all at the same time. That way it all drys at the same rate and shrinks at the same rate together. I've also seen furniture built out of green wood using mortise and tenon without the use of glue or fasteners. They are assembled in such a way so that the mortises shrink tightly into the tenon's creating tight joints. I fear the days are coming when we lose this knowledge and will be left depending on computers to do the thinking for us.

Fellow tree nerd here!! I too am fascinated by the types of wood used in tool making. Truthfully, any type of wood construction or art is amazing to me. Like smoking pipes usually being made of briar wood because of the density. Bamboo for its strength yet flexibility. You should make a channel dedicated to looking into things like this. I’d watch it!!

Striking tool handles are never made from oak, whilst hard it splits very easily, in fact I've never known any tool handle be made from oak. Invariably they are ash, beech, box or hornbeam. Occasionally fruit wood such as pear and for planes and measuring tools ebony and rosewood, rarely mahogany. I have seen teak used, in homemades I've had that came from shipyards.

I inherited all my dad’s wood chisels from large sets to small. He was an artist and I inherited his artistic talents. Just not any talent for fixing and sharpening them. Some of the butt- end of the handles are shredded and probably need replacement and some of the blades have tiny chips and all need sharpening. I have his rounded cone shaped stones for refining the sharpening of the curved chisels but they probably need the edges redone before those would become useful. I imagine I will have to send them out to be done because I don’t have the tools to do it myself. You do such beautiful work it’s a pleasure to watch you.

@whittysworkshop982 Жыл бұрын

It looks good, but I cant imagine it would function very well. Firstly the back has to be straight and flat, that cant be done by sanding and polishing (the round side of the belt sander is the worst way to clean the surface, itll make problems) it has to be lapped flat on a flat surface that is bigger than the chisel. You cannot get a flat surface without first making it hollow, if its bellied then chances are itll stay bellied during the lapping process, so we have to start from a hollow. A narrow strip of abrasive on a flat surface, and only working the centre of the chisel will give the hollow. Then lapping on a flat surface to take the hollow away and make it flat, the lapping surface has to be bigger than the chisel or it's not gonna be flat, working until the slight hollow has disappeared and your grinding pattern reaches the cutting edge. If it's not flat then it will be hard to control, the flat side of the chisel is your reference surface for paring away high spots....... the flat back registers against the work and the cutting edge takes off the high spots. If the back hasnt been flattened then the leading edge is probably not in plane with the back; if the edge is higher then you'll have to lift the handle of the chisel for it to work; now you have no reference surface to guide the tool along to pare away the high spots....... it's like always using the chisel bevel down, and you cant make the surface you're cutting flat. If the cutting edge is actually lower than the back, the chisel will always dive into the work. Itll do a similar thing when chopping, it wont want to chop plumb. Even brand new chisels have to be flattened when you buy them, they wont work properly if it's not done.

@RickSanchez-ye9bi Жыл бұрын

I've watched a few similar videos, and I never ever rate the electrolysis part, as most sand it back to bare metal anyway, but seeing the result you achieved by that and then a wire brush, I was impressed. I'd have been very tempted to stop at that point, it looked really good. Once sharpened, it would have worked well, and still looked a proper old chisel. Nice result

Another great restoration! Turning the drill press into a lathe was a neat trick. One tip for your electrolysis process: it looks like you might be using zinc/galvanized steel or stainless steel scrap anodes. If they are stainless steel, the electrolysis process can produce poisonous chromium compounds in your solution that are hazardous to your health and toxic to dispose of. If you are using zinc/galvanized steel, there is less of a health hazard, but you still may end up lightly plating your part in zinc unintentionally. The best anode material to use is just any plain steel you might have lying around. Happy restoring!

Oh dear. I clicked on this to see something relaxing before sleep and here I am, a cabinetmaker in training just absolutely foaming at the mouth with rage and frustration at how the back of the chisel was visibly not given any attention at all. It's a damned shame. All that good, old steel that can still cut so well, as the chisels and planes I have from my great-grandfather can prove easily, and now it may look all shiny and nice again but still just barely cuts better than a butterknife. I haven't gotten this stressed over a KZfaq video in a minute. Like, I physically cramped up at seeing how much force had to be put in those cuts at the end. So much effort and such beautiful results in the cosmetics department just makes the piss-poor actual work performance at the end cut real, real deep, if you'll pardon the pun..

There’s a carpenter in heaven looking down saying "That was my chisel when I was a tradesman, thank you." I really like how you gave it a good firmer chisel handle and not a fancy bench chisel or carving chisel one. It’s good you restored it to what it was rather than something completely different.

@christianfriisjensen2055 2 жыл бұрын

And that very carpenter is probably also tearing his hair out in frustration at how the back of the chisel was so completely neglected and the sharpening was utterly botched. But like, one can hope it moves on from here, to someone who knows how to do it right.

As a woodworker who appreciates and uses high quality chisels, this "restoration" is mostly just okay. You spent a lot of effort on the bevel side (up) of the chisel. That part is just cosmetic, the critical side is the flat side opposite of the bevel. It must be very, very flat and straight, then polished. You failed to accomplish that. This chisel could be made to be a good one, it is not now but with another 2-3 hours of hand work on the blade flatness and better edge sharpening it should be okay. Understanding the edge geometry and the basic design features of a chisel would serve you well on future restoration. It is a nice looking "beater" chisel at this point.

It was good, but was the back, (underside), ever properly flattened? That’s important. It looked like just sandpaper was used with a sanding sponge. And what kind of wood was used for the handle? That’s an old ‘registered’ chisel, also sometimes called a ‘firmer’. The sides were created to register perfectly square with the flattened back as to use for cleaning mortises and tenons. They also were used for full mortise work depending on the chisel width and type of wood being cut into. You’ve got some nice techniques. I’m curious if you were able to find a brand name somewhere.
