The antiques you find are so freaking cool and unique, and you are a truly awesome craftsman. I can't believe you have so few subscribers, and all the fake restorers out there have 10 times more followers, although they are full of BS. You're so underrated it's insane

Amazing! I still couldn't get my head around how you didn't give up on trying to cast a whole part and ended up replicating it almost perfectly Very good one, sir. Such an elegant tool, although not as effective as its modern counterparts

I was intrigued from the get-go as I had never seen a vacuum cleaner this old. And it just got better from there! You demonstrated so many cool skills (save for the gas pipe bit🤔) - aluminium casting, metal fabrication, label making, 3D printing (but my mind was officially blown by the 3D printer PRINTER!!!🤯). Plus the shot of your sweet ride was bonus joy (very cherry!). Thank you for taking the time to film this restoration - it was so enjoyable all the way through. Onya Mate👍

чисто визуально, (да простят меня отцы изобретатели) КПД данного устройства не значительно выше нуля, если брать во внимание, отсутствие альтернативы, то и эта идея могла быть одобренной. Во всяком случае было сделано начало, от просто причуды до мечты и в действующий образец путь не малый, и основное если бы не было того что мы сейчас видим, однозначно не было бы и теперешнего......Путь первопроходца всегда более сложен.
