If it were me, I would have spent three weeks designing a jig to bend the new heating elements for me to save time XD

When I figured out how you were going to refit those heating elements, I instantly had a headache. Your patient is out of this world. Great job.

That's adorable. The 1920s had so much craftsmanship. Beautiful restoration too!!!

I don’t normally leave comments, but this was an outstanding job! The work on those heating elements was amazing! Congrats!

I actually thought they were ceramic and to begin with I thought the small sheet was going to replace everything as a more efficient version. Then it was bent round the stick and I realised what was happening! 👏

Great work! Just a quick note- looks like you used plumber's PTFE tape on the gas jet. For future products using gas fuel, I recommend you use the gas-rated PTFE. It's typically pale yellow in a yellow spool instead of white tape in a blue spool. It's rated for higher temperatures (and is a little thicker) so won't break down if that gas jet pipe heats up.

Vous avez refait tous ces diffuseurs à la main!! 😲Chapeau! Ça, c'est du boulot!

Yippee Hooray. Finally, I get to see something old fashioned that comes with an owner's manual.

They sure knew how to blend beauty and efficiency back then. I can just imagine the warm glow of this little gem late in the evening when all was dimmed.

You made new diffusers one by one... that was impressive! Excellent restoration! The heater is gorgeous!

What a beautiful little heater! It looks to be very efficiently designed, as well. I can't help but wonder how well it put out heat. I can certainly imagine keeping a pot of hot water on top for tea. Such wonderful dedication to it's painstaking restoration, too. I feel it's likely to look even better than when it was brand new.

One of the best restorations I've ever seen

What an excellent restoration, I sometimes get bored watching resto jobs but this one kept my attention all the way. The manufacturer of the heating elements, although technology aided, showed a great skill level. I would be proud to own a little gas heater like this one. Well done.

Крутой дизайн обогревателя и форсунок. Отличная реставрация!

That restoration was amazing. I would run that heater all winter long just to admire your craftsmanship.

Love how you maintain the antique look while using modern restoration tools!! Thanks for sharing this

Magnificent restauration! Looks so beautiful. I love old things like that. They sure don't make things like they used to.

You are MY kind of man. A talented engineer with precision and care. I hope you continue to restore things and stop the waste on this planet. Lots of love from an Old Lady.

What a glorious finish, and I was holding my breath when the little heat conductors crumbled in your hand. Fantastic work!

Those heating elements 😅 That was an incredible amount of work and they turned out better than new! Beautiful.

that would be 光明 then, however nowadays usually it would be written koumyou or kōmyō. Leaving out the u or using "o" instead of "ō" is just laziness and can lead to misunderstandings, only among the crowd who can actually tell the difference though.

Definitely, one of my favorite pieces to date. I like when you get to use all of your tools around the shop, it makes the restoration more beautifully complex.

The work put into those elements was worth it when the flames were lit. That was gorgeous!

Your restorations awe me - so meticulous and unhurried, and all your equipment so exquisitely clean! A pleasure to watch.

Hell you should have seen what we had for a bathroom heater at my grandparents cabin in Ruidoso NM growing up. I think they banned them back in late 80's cause of fire risk yet damn things would heat up the bathroom quick. Gas and you lit it with a match. Better light the match before you hit the gas knob else you might lose some eyebrows. Don't ask how I know that one.
