EXTREMELY Ruined Buckle Restoration, M.1888 World War 1

Ғылым және технология

This ruined Buckle I received from my friend it is M.1888 Buckle and it belonged to an infantryman of the powerful Austrian Imperial army. It was in really bad condition extremely oxidized and needed restoration so at first I even thought it couldn't be restored. I used many methods and It was not easy to restore this beautiful Buckle and make it such perfect.
All the Restoration processes is below:
At first need to take off prong and bar it can be easy done with pliers but the most complicated task for me was to take out the rusted pin which was stuck and deadlocked inside the bar. It was fixed heated and boiled in oil and for better removal I applied a hammer.
It is made of stamped brass so to clean the surface from oxide I prepared special composite which consists of some flour salt mixed with 9% Vinegar and lemon juice (citric acid) this is a very effective and proven method for Restoration. The Buckle was cracked and bent in four places and took me too much time to fix it. That was hardest soldering in my life because old metal is very difficult to solder especially need to be careful not to overheat the parts for that we use tin rosin and clay to protect the metal.
Grinding: For rough grinding is good to use nut shell and hand pestle to crush it. The crushed shell is filled into a plastic or metal container and rotated at low speed for a long time this method works very slowly but effectively it smoothly cleans a small defects and Turning a rough surface into a Perfect.
v. Pin: The pin holds body and bar together It was made out of nail.
v. Patina: To make a patina we use a sulfur paste which should be applied in a thin layer on a metal object.
v. Protection: Making a protection layer is very important for that I used natural wax.
I polished the emblem to a mirror finish while the rest left with patina, It took me too much time to Turn such ruined Buckle into that perfect and I faced many difficulties restoring this beautiful war relic. I am truly satisfied with this Restoration and epic outcome so hope you too.
