I worked on restoring an antique industrial cheese cutter that was used in a general store during the 19th century. It took me longer than anticipated to complete the project, and unfortunately, I lost some of the files during the restoration process. I had a sinking feeling in my stomach when the buffing machine grabbed the aluminum disc and spun around. However, I managed to finish the project and I would love to hear your thoughts on the outcome. I plan to return the cheese cutter to the museum tomorrow and will provide an update on its placement. Thank you for watching

Don't sweat it, I think it's a pretty safe bet this hardly the first time ever a part has been damaged during repairs/restorations of museum pieces all over the world. You managed to salvage the situation and it came out really nice.

I work in museums. It's ok that you messed up the cover. I mean, it's not ideal, but it's ok. The cutter could still go on display. We'd just include a note that it originally had a cover that, due to its age and condition, couldn't be salvaged. It might even include a picture of the cover.

Thanks for your feedback, I'm quite lucky with the museum they trust what I do and know that'll do a good job, and at the end i do it all for free for them , I rely on KZfaq views to pay for the costs, cheers Richard 😀

I do model train restoration, I have done a few for museum and private collectors. I did a complete restoration of a very rare pre war set that had been owned by the same family since it’s original purchase. The complete project took over a year , and required extensive fabrication. When I completed the locomotive I was getting it ready to be boxed and dropped it on a concrete floor, destroying the running gear and wheels. All I could do was contact the customer, tell them what had happened and assure them I would make it right.

Where there's muck there's brass, as they used to say in the north of England. I think I vaguely remember shops and the older department stores in Britain that were still using similar things like that up until the 70's, as my grandparents' generation passed, who were the last children of the Victorians and still valued Empire and what it had meant, and still had a strong relationship with service and being served. Whereas now people buy pre cut, packaged in plastic, with little human interaction.

Something of an epic struggle on that restoration, Richard, but it turned out beautifully in the end. A machine like that one raises many questions, but you know what, I don't rate the establishment it came from very highly for cleanliness. Health and Safety offices would close a shop down pretty snappily if they found a piece of kit in that state in it. Great video though, and a very impressive range of skills employed. Thanks.
