Rusty Sawback Machete Restoration

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

New C-Tek handle, stainless bolsters, and refinished blade.
Restored to new condition with beautiful new custom handle.
This is an old machete that a friend asked me to restore for them. The new handle scales are C-Tek resin in aluminum honeycomb and the added bolsters are 316 marine stainless steel.

    Wait wait wait, did I really watch you hammer out the kerf for the saw teeth? They're supposed to be set wider than the blade...and then I see at the end you totally did restore the kerf. :-) I was like "noooooooooooooo" and then "Oh, OK!". The handle scales looked good too.

    What if you increase the sand blaster pressure?

  • @AcmeRestorations

    @AcmeRestorations

    Жыл бұрын

    If you increase the pressure, you obliterate the blasting medium into dust and it can't be reused. The dust also then makes it hard to take video that is watchable. It's a delicate balance. Somethings like paint go fast; rust takes a little longer. Thanks for the question.

    Perhaps if you had watched the whole video you would have seen the part where I used a saw set to reset the teeth. That can be seen here 11:57 I don't mind constructive criticism, but this ain't that.

    I was just thinking to myself, saw teeth only saw when sharp and alternately off set. Then you put pressed alternate teeth back into an off set profile. Never seen that done. Broadened my horizon. Great work! Congrats.
