Awesome Restoration of Rusted Grinder
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Welcome to my restoration channel! If you like restoration videos or restoration asmr videos you found the right spot! In this video I restore a Craftsman(Sears, Roebuck and CO. USA) Bench grinder that I picked at an auction for around $60 USD. This is a 1/2 H.P. Ball Bearing Capacitor Ginder.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate the view!
THE RESTORATION PROCESS
I tore the bench grinder apart and sandblasted the painted parts. We fixed the wiring and had the capacitor bench tested at our local electric motor shop. I replaced the bearings. I used a tumbler to clean up a lot of the small hardware. I wanted a more stationary base for the bench grinder so we built a new one that fastens directly to the floor. Overall the restoration turned out great and I am happy to have this bench grinder in my restoration shop. It should come in handy!

When things are built to a high quality standard, they are worth restoring and rebuilding. You will never see a better made grinder than this again, and now it’s restored it will last another lifetime. Outstanding!

This press has worked like a charm for my projects kzread.infoUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!

This looks like it’s from 70s maybe early 80s. Definitely looks like a model I remember seeing in the garage that my dad had. He use to brag craftsman for the lifetime warranty replacement. Guess we finally got the answer as to what lifetime they meant. Regardless of what decade this grinder was made in, it was made back when they made things to last. Even as a kid the 80s was a hell of a time to be alive.
That torch in the cabinet awesome.

Suggestion? I personally would have replaced the capacitor. I like to restore old tools and actually USE them. If that beauty gets put back to work, there's a good chance the capacitor will not last. Those old wet capacitors just go bad over time. A modern replacement would be fairly cheap. Just my opinion. That and $5 might get you a cup of coffee.

Hang some small, cheep household HVAC air filters on the wall behind the vents. They will keep dust and debris from flying everywhere and keep things a bit cleaner on the wall as time goes by, and they can be replaced easily as they dirty up... They could be a fire hazard if your spraying sparks, so consider that, but if it just dust they could keep things much cleaner around the bench grinder. Nice restoration

That grinder came out really nice. I wasn’t sure if the finish was in the paint or in the metal before you stripped it. But the hammered finish paint made it look good. I have my grandfathers old Black and Decker bench grinder. Still works fantastic. When I got it, I cleaned it up and replaced the power cord. The original one was all dried out and very brittle. Plus it wasn’t grounded. The new cord was the same size wire with a ground and I drilled and tapped a boss on the bottom of the grinder to ground it. Seeing how yours came out, I might do an overhaul on it soon. Anyway, great video!

Nice neat job. Looks as good as new. The only additional thing I might have done would have been to make a couple of sheet metal spark guides to go on the back to aim the hot metal dust from those guard ports downward (Rather than straight at that nice white wall). Some would insist on making a water trap to capture the metal dust too, but personally, I don't do enough bench grinding to warrant that.
