89 Years Old Pipe Cutter...And Its A Beast!
What a fantastic $20 FaceBook Market Place find that I had to tackle. Great bones and truly a beast of a tool that seemed deserving of a second life. I really hope you enjoy this one! Please feel free to comment good or bad. I am still in the process of dialing in my channel, experimenting with some of this and that, and nothing helps more than feedback. I do like to know what I've gotten wrong as much as what I've gotten right.
Most importantly...Thanks for watching!

Totally agree. Firstly, I love your workmanship and the finish you get with your projects, but I also you feel you inject just the right amount of something different. At the end of the day it's the restoration and the work involved that seems to draw us into these videos, and I'd hate the see "gimmicks" get in the way of that; I think you strike the perfect balance however. And yes, your camera work and editing is first rate. Looking forward to the next one.

Isn't that splendid, a tool that was designed to have every part replaced if it wore out. I think you showed it the respect it deserves. Very nice.

Beautiful - who knew that an old pipe cutter could look like a piece of industrial art! 👍👍👍
Pure sound, no excessive use of incredibly annoying youtube music. This is how it should be done. 👍
Actually, legitimatly a beautiful restoration
The pre-resto state was pretty impressive for something that’s nearly 90 years old. Good work as always 👍
lol your puns towards TysyTube and My Mechanics 😂👍 what a fantastic result, respect ✌️😎👍
"Wow!!" Now that's beautiful.
The fact that after 89 years it still moved at all is a testament to the era in which it was created...

As a plumber I appreciate this. As a man who had his day turned around by this work, I subscribe. My hats off to you! Excellent production!
Please, continue on with your work. This is great stuff.
One could argue, the end results of all these restorations are better than new condition.
No longer a tool, it's a work of art. I would hang that on my wall. No joke. Excellent!

Cats. Tools. american craftsmanship. Very nice. I appreciate this VERY MUCH
You and My Mechanics are my favorites for resto and restomods👍
I don't know who you are Sir, but you've done me a power of good.
I was in that first 16 subs and predicted great things. So basically it's all down to me. No problem. You're welcome. 🧡😁

Sorry, have to make some comments. 1 ) Your video production style is really fun. Love the levity, the cat, everything. 2 ) The finished result was stunning. At first I thought you were crazy for painting but it came out so much better than I would have ever expected. It's beautiful. 3 ) I think that's it. Should have stopped with two.
Dude, the Tape deck skit had me laughing. Great restoration too! keep it up!
I wonder how useful this tool has been after almost 100 years of existence. Now it is ready for another 100 years and much more beautiful! Great job!
Wow! Looks amazing. I like your bottle of tears from sanding. I feel like they make a difference.
I heard a rumour that Tom Cruise saw your "action montage" and wants to hire you for Mission Impossible 47.
Yes you are back! Hope you make it to 100k very soon brother! -Cool Restorations
The Camera, the Cut, Your Sense of Humor, the Cat and the Restoration itsself are excellent. I enjoy every of your Videos. Thank you for sharing this.
This is one of my fav restores you've done. The jar of "Tears from Sanding" was a nice touch. I really like the rapid filing, grinding, etc. with the sound effects. I know it shortens the video a little but honestly if it was real time it'd take a 24/7 week to watch. Good work as per usual.
Some of that video editing and use of lighting gave real drama and depth to this restoration! Encore une fois, mon brave. Also, the furry QA supervisor examining at every stage... priceless!
The process of restoration has healing properties.
5:31 "Tears from sanding" - priceless!
So beautiful it makes me want to cry. Amazing work. I appreciate the flow of fast/slow. Very satisfying. I also love the cat popping in and out. Makes me laugh.
You are my hands down favorite resto channel. The editing and humor are A1. So glad I came across your channel!
That is the best color combo I've seen in ages. LOVE IT
Bravo! fixing the imperfections and make it better what it was - now that is entering the big league!
That turned out beautiful.. I would be afraid 😨 to cut anything with that.. K.R. keep up the great work and you'll catch up with My Mechanic one day.. God Bless and take care my friend...

I'm a self employed Plumber, that pipe cutter is nicer than my Ridgid! That cutter is too nice to use...thanks for bringing her back to life.
Immaculate. With work like that you should reach 100k in no time and then many more.
Great restore work, as usual, but... that celebration, the true "piece of resistance"!!!
Dude, this guy is fkin hilarious, relaxing but entertaining. And his work is fabulous. Gold mine of a find for me! Instantly subbed!
I like to see a good cat in a restoration video! Excellent restoration!
In an era of planned obsolescence and an ever expanding pile of waste, it's nice to see a product beautifully restored that still functions as intended. Well done and keep the format of your content going! 🤙🏻💪🏻
Magnificent job, looks awesome. The MyMechanics soundtrack is my personal favorite. I just love listening to "I make a new one". ;)
Before all that work, you had a tool you could use. Edit: okay... That was beautiful!
Wow, nicely done! I think there are some plumbers out there envying your pipe cutter, it's a beauty!
Wow a new pipe cutter of this size for 6 dollars good luck trying to find that now a days
This just proves that editing goes a long way.. your videos are beautifully put together. Keep em coming more often!
Perfect restoration! Perfect colour you choose, perfect all the polished parts( my mechanics insipiration I guess), perfect montage, perfect direction! Well done mate! Carry on!
You do such a fantastic job . Leaves me speechless , and that's not easy to do .. lol
Better looking tool than when it was new. Good job!
Absolutely amazing! I just discovered this channel but I'm already in awe. The editing and humor is on point as well lol. I'm blown away by the outcome of your restorations! This channel is awesome and the cat makes it even better. 🤘😎
Ok, I've watched several resto guys on youtube, and my only consistent one is hand tool rescue. But the look of this resto is absolutely amazing. It looks like a 3d model rendering at the end. Fantastic stuff. Subbed.
That is probably the most respect shown to any lowly pipe wrench. Mostly they get cranked and thrown around. Excellent Work! Really!
What's really crazy is how little this tool has changed over 89 years. It's damn near identical to a new one 0_o
New “Harbor Freight” crap shows why this type of restoration is not just an art form, but also a necessity. A curse on Chinesium and Thaitanium tools. Give me hundred year old steel any day.

Thanks for the feed back, Roland. That’s fairly close to what I though. The humor was a bit heavy handed. I toned it down in the next one.
You don’t get a finish like that until you’ve filled a bottle full of tears from the amount of sanding.
An amazing job as always with special thanks to the cat. I will say though, did seem a bit sillier then usually. Great job, great skill

That turned out as sharp looking. I was curious, $6 in 1932 is equal to $108 today but you'd probably have to pay twice that to get a good steel pipe cutter like this one.

85 years of gunk but underneath, the parts are all in remarkably good condition. I like to see the original drop forging imperfections cleaned up like they should have been done at the factory. And a beautiful finish!! Thank you.
