In this video, I restored an old rusty bread cutter made in Germany.
More about the restoration process:
It was very challenging, like always, but rewarding. I learned a lot about bread cutters.
The blade was highly rusty, with a considerable layer of rust that required extensive hand sanding and patience to regain its usable shape.
I encourage you to watch this video to learn more about this antique German bread cutter.
When I saw it, I was impressed at how bad it looked. It was full of rust, layers of random paint, and a few cracks. The wood was utterly gone and eaten by time and bugs.
The most challenging part was the crack repair. This time, I chose to do it differently-a method anyone can use. This is especially true since cast iron is hard to fix, and not everybody has a welding machine or knows how to use the brassing method.
The most beautiful part was the woodworking after cleaning, repairing, and painting everything. I chose pearwood as the hardwood for this project.
The wood was cut and engraved with a Falcon 2 Engraving and Cutting Machine; if you want to learn more about it, you can do it here: s.zbanx.com/r/QX6jpI9ekWjk

I loved the results, and the burnt wood effect on the sides was terrific. Then I applied some Swedish wood oil, and the pear wood started to show its unique texture.
After the blade was cleaned and polished, I assembled the old bread guillotine and made a test for you! It worked perfectly!
I hope I have caught everything, but if you have any questions, you can comment, and I'll get back to you! I always do!
Cheers! Johnny.
