Hello,
in this video I am restoring one of the first electric coffee grinders ever. The french coffee grinder from the company moulinex is from the 1950s.
At that time, the company Moulinex still operated under the name Moulin-Légumes and only the now antique coffee grinder itself was called Moulinex.
Due to the success of the small kitchenaid coffee grinder, the entire brand was subsequently renamed and received its now legendary Moulinex logo.
As always, I start the restoration with the complete disassembly of the machine. I also disassemble the electric motor into its parts and show how to restore an electric motor.
Afterwards I paint the case parts in the original color.
One challenge in this project is to replace the cracked plastic lid. In the restoration video I show how to cast a mold and subsequently I show the process of resin casting to built a new lid.
After I have reconstructed the logo, I can reassemble everything and bring the historic coffee mill back to life.
In a final test, the old Moulinex will of course prove its readiness for use.
I hope you have fun with the restoration video and its a diy inspiration for you. If you want to support the channel, please like, share and subscribe.
You can give special support to the channel via patreon.

I am looking forward to you.

You could maybe get a bubble free part by throwing the mould with resin into a vacuum chamber? I have a cheap one made with an old fridge compressor and it works great for stuff like that!

Beautiful restoration. One suggestion--with soldering, more is not better. Using flux will help the solder flow and make an integrated weld with the materials you want to join. Heating the metals rather than the solder is also good. Thanks for your bringing your work to us.

@NTRprojects 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the tip! I will work on my solder skills and your comment will help!

Yep. Exactly like plumbing a house in copper. Heat the pipe, not the solder.

@flyingwondercat739 Жыл бұрын

@@NTRprojects Soldering can be difficult on things like the motor, I am sure you noticed the metal absorbs heat quickly. Sometimes higher heat for less time can work better. Overall you did a good job :) The coffee grider looks amazing, good restoration!

Looks very good! The bubbles in the clear plastic cap look fine. They are all small and rather evenly distributed. It looks intentional; and given that metal flake in plastic would become popular not long after that grinder was made. So, it looks really good. Thank you for showing us this grinder.

Nice restore job! Just thought id toss in a tip for next time you cast clear resin for a new part. I spent weeks testing methods of casting the same two part silicone molds for a 300zx tail lens and found that if you degas the mixed resin in a vacuum bucket before you pour the mold full you will avoid the bubbles in the cast part. Pre heating the silicone mold in a microwave also helps, but keep in mind that the warmer the temp the faster the isothermal reaction. So you have to be ready and not waste time.
