Am a huge fan of the cinematography with the lathe. Just as good as sandblasting with the reduced speed of it.

I think I would have opted for lead-free solder instead of jb-weld for putting the fittings back on the brass pipe. That way, in the future it would still have been easy to take apart again for cleaning without the worry of lead poisoning of normal solder.

Love your restoration and don't worry am subscribed and liked all the videos hehe, I am in love woth your lathe, and the tool you cleaned the inside of the tube with is just marvelous. Question though when you said too much lead for food product you meant the lead they used to wield the top of the pump to the handle part and the bottom correct ? Which you reolaced with the JB wield I bekieve because thats basically steel and the whole thing is made of Brass I believe, am I correct?

Thanks Mohamed for watching the beer passing through to the tap was exposed to the solder which is got a high lead content, the other thing I was considering is the solder has a low melting point at 185 degrees Celsius JB weld 287 degrees Celsius, and powder coating is done at 200 degrees Celsius, I was considering powder coating with a clear coat ,JB weld has given me more options to work with

JB Weld is not food safe. You probably need to clear coat it to isolate the JB Weld.

next time use silver tin solder it cost more but no lead it has a higher melting temp as well instead of epoxy which also has contaminates that can harm people.

Having your name and/or logo in the background or at random places in the scenes would help. Ths owner at Really Random Channel does this because he's had trouble with content thieves.
