This is a middle tier skill level for a restoration channel, probably on the better half of the tier. But the cringe levels of workmanship aren't up to the 98% cringless viewing that my mechanics has, as even he cuts corners. My background is in aviation repair so if an overhaul isn't done to the degree of how it should have left the factory, it's cringy. My mechanics has issues with finishing the parts. Kilo has issues with finishing parts, to a lesser degree, and has issues with quality of replacement parts. It's no dig at kilo as there are very few channels that are better, but he hasn't broken out to the levels of my mechanics

Let just be clear this is one of the better restorations channels for the fact that he can take someone that is pretty much worthless or desgined to be damaged and turn it in to some art. The fact that he spent that much time fixing the logo is truly awesome. One of these days I might get around to doing something like this just for " because I can " reasons

So satisfying seeing old stuff becoming new again. Thanks...

Man, for some reason, the polished hardware is just so satisfying for me.

I love your videos but my favorite part is the cat. I love the little "pop" when he disappears.

I am Russian and we say it similarly: Заебись!

Wow. That's one of the most beautiful works of art I have ever seen! I almost couldn't bring myself to use that as a tool ever again.

I think the jump cuts during the degreasing is my favorite part. Just watching the water turn more and more brown as the parts get cleaner is satisfying to me

I'm new to your channel, I am not dissapointed with what I see. Seeing the amount of care and respect you give these items you work on, down to the bolt, is just breathtaking. My father taught me a good lesson when I was younger, "if you treat the tools without care, you will be creating future hardships for you". Thank you for the content.

when you cut the rod off it stressed me the hell out, but i will begrudgingly admit the new one you made looks pretty good...

Downside is; once metal starts bending, even if you straighten it, it weakens the structure and becomes easier to bend again.

I didn't quite understand why the OEM didn't use hardened steel for the handle. They had to know that someone would eventually use a cheater bar on the handle.

Awesome, you really do go to town on these restorations projects. BTW I once applied grease to the conical face on the swivel base, never again, these faces should be clean, you need friction to lock to swivel... But I guess you're trying to prevent rust, on a ornamental vice.

Not only inspiring and clever, highly entertaining style as well. Love the sense of humour, cat, and the work you do. It's let me into doing similar now so thanks Kilo!

You are a Wizard! This restoration is nothing short of remarkable! It turned out so beautiful that it should become a museum piece so that everybody could marvel at your ingenuity and skill from turning a piece of junk into a fine piece of machinery. Absolutely first class job along with fantastic videoing!

the romantic music insert with the cat was perfect. still smiling typing this.

Unmatched attention to detail + occasional comic relief, I love it. Thank you, sir, your work is the quintessential reason KZread exists. Glad I found your channel.

You really step up the restoration game, this content is absolutely top notch in every aspect! Amazing job!

I am an expert on KZread tool restoration videos and can confidently say this is the best vice restoration I've seen! Beautiful job mate - thanks for sharing.

Underrated channel 😓

I started restoring antique axes a few months ago as a hobby and your videos have definitely given me many ideas! Thanks for the great content!

Literally the type of Restoration channel I was actually looking for, who uses the old parts and tries the most to repair rather than other restoration channels who just purchase new parts and replace those. I mean that's not restoration . Good luck 🤞

Greetings from Poland😎👍🇵🇱

I was hoping someone from Poland would watch this. Greetings from America, Rafal T !

I did a vice a month ago. It’s come out well but not as well as this, I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to cut the 90 year old handle off though. It’s a Record Auto Vice. Beautiful piece of kit.

Beautiful restoration to better than original condition. A real work of art and useful tool. Excellent work!

That's what I call taking care of your tools...Beautiful...

I Legitimately laughed out loud at the "Doug score".

Outstanding work. They say machine stripping paint builds character.

There are a lot of vise restoration vids out there. Let me say, your attention to detail and care is on another level. Great job. Great vid.

There is something incredibly calming about what you do. You do amazing work.

Wow this was absolutely delicious! Loving the segment rolling titles, the remarks, the lighting the sound AND your skill. I was hoping you’d remount it at your brother’s workshop as a surprise! (p.s. - you are welcome = you’re welcome)

This is literal art.

I said it before and I will say it again - watching your videos is like a meditation for me! Thank you again!

I have an old rusty vice from that era. Now I want to restore it. Thanks for adding another project to my list.

I'm scared that I'll have to wait another few months just to get another one of you're fantastic restorations vids. Unbelievable content man, keep it up!

@@KILORESTORATION Can live with the wait with the quality of the output. Gotta say, I love the effort you put in when polishing parts, no 100-240 grit then straight to the buffer, gotta got through the 400, 600, 800, 1200 and 2000 first

The shaft collar vice handles are a really nice idea

I love your videos because there’s a lot more effort that goes into these restorations without a lathe and media blaster, but the end result is just as good.

Fantastic work. The fact you do most of it by hand too, with that end result is inspired.

Great restoration, looks brandnew.

Man you do amazing work! Your channel is definitely underrated. You should post more videos. With your skills and production quality you would definitely pass the rest of the so called restoration channels.

Outstanding! This is some of the best restoration on the Tube! Keep up the quality work!

I don’t think there is anyone on KZread that achieves the level of detail or finish that you do. I’ve watched many of those other channels. Hope you can find lots more to work on in the future. It’s especially enjoyable to see the parts that aren’t polished get a mirror-like shine. Thanks for taking the time to do these projects and then put them up for us to see.

Really good work you did with this restoration project. would have never thought about using washings on the 3 on each side nuts and a very interesting way to make a handle for the vise while not having a lathe as most of these vise restoration KZreadrs have at their disposable.

I like how you don't have a huge amount of expensive tools whilst carrying out this fantastic restoration work - gives me realistic inspiration! Although I do look forward to you buying new tools in future videos! Keep up the great work - just discovered you today and binged almost all the videos. Thank you for the good content and the genuine humour.

These videos are some of the only videos that I don't mind watching more than once. It's amazing every time.

Just brilliant and hysterical at well.

You must be rapidly running out of old rusty things to restore! Jokes aside your channel is quality and I forward to see what you do next.

That’s impressive. Giving me the idea to do my partially rusty vice. Thanks for the video, very well done

You don't leave any stone unturned, so to say. Very meticulous and flawless restoration.

You did a great job with fairly simple tools and ingenuity. Nice! Got my subscription.

Классная работа проделана!

I love the look of chrome looking metal polish metal and wood that is just plain clear coated not stained. Nothing anybody cares

I love these Polish vises, and what a beautiful restoration. Looks too good to use.

Hey Deena. When my channel grows a bit more I plan to stop. But right now I’m trying to entice people who have never watched one of my videos to give it a look. I’m sorry if that spoils it for you. I prefer not to do it. But I’m also trying to get my channel to grow enough that I don’t have to. Thanks for the comment !
