Axe Restoration [Satin Axe Head With Walnut Handle]

preview_player
Показать описание
Remove rust with cola? That's supposed to work? In this restoration of this extremely rusty old axe I will try... But of course I will also restore the complete axe, that means I will harden, quench in oil and water, file, grind, polish, cut with the band saw and saws and more. It will definitely be hot because it burns, but also very cold when you quench it.

▶ What did I do ?! ◀

I remove the coarse rust with a wire brush, then soak the extremely rusty axe head in cola and try to remove the remaining rust. I work on the contour with a belt grinder, an angle grinder and files. The axe head is then heated to 800°C/1472°F and quenched in 80°C/176°F oil. I then sanded the surface with sandpaper up to a grain size of 800. I made a new handle from walnut wood as the old one was no longer available. Now just rub the handle with linseed oil and hammer in the old wedges, and the new old axe is finished.

▶ Good to know ◀

I used the following tools: Wire brush, cordless screwdriver, drill, Bunsen burner, pin punch, hammer, brush, file, angle grinder, cut-off wheel, belt sander, hardening oven, oil, immersion heater, forging pliers, thermometer, oven, water, spatula, orbital sander, sanding fleece, polishing block, polishing paste, adhesive tape, pencil, knife, tweezers, band saw, calipers, sandpaper, saw, whetstone, linseed oil varnish

Love to see you trying out new things with your editing and videography, while the restorations are always a treat. We're getting closer to the definitely still secret blue turtle reveal, too, aren't we? 🎉😊

Is it a coincidence that this morning I was laying in bed and thought to myself “hmm. I wonder when he’s gonna post again” Well I guess I know now. -edit- just came from my brothers account, can’t believe this is the current top comment ❤
