Hello,
glad you are visiting my channel. In this video I restore a paper punch. I saw the old hole punch and was immediately fascinated by the extremely functional design. The entire mechanism is exposed and very demonstrative. Unfortunately, the beautifully exposed mechanism is heavily rusted and no longer fully functional.
The punch was manufactured by Henssson, an office supplies company that produced in Weimar, Germany around the 1910s.
The restoration of the antique office article I started as always with the complete disassembly. During the disassembly, I noticed that all the rusty mechanical parts were once nickel plated. This is clearly visible from the flaking coating that is eroded by the rust.
After disassembly, I once again had the parts sandblasted by mister patina. The sandblasting was very time consuming because the punch was not painted but had a japanning coating. This very complex technique was very often used at the beginning of the 20th century, such as for writing and sewing machines. The technique was intended to imitate the deep black coating of Japanese imports and has its origins in the 17th century.
For japanning, a mixture of tar, turpentine and linseed oil is mixed and, after a long curing period, applied by brush and then baked in the oven. The baking itself is carried out in several steps and is extremely time-consuming.
It was particularly important to me to preserve the antique charm of this object and therefore I decided to renew the japanning and not to paint the punch. I have also completely renewed and polished the nickel plating on the mechanical components.
The result is that the punch shines in a completely new brilliance. the techniques used make it possible to imagine that the punch is back as it was more than 100 years ago in an office shop window.
I hope you have fun with the video. Feel free to ask questions.

One thing is missing - the paper registration arm. It is there so that the holes will all line up in the same place on each piece of paper (when punched at different times). You'll have to make one - it can be all wood, wood & metal, or all metal. Yours appears to be a round rod with the paper stop at the end. It could also be a dual rod setup with a connecting plate for a paper stop. Both kinds would require a set screw to hold it in place - somewhere.
The grub screws on the locking rings were an excellent upgrade that were brilliantly done. Also I have always wondered about jappaning, how it is done and what the advantages of it are. Now I know and I thank you for that. Finally I laughed myself silly that you preserved the original punched out paper that was hilarious. 😆😆 A+!

Outstanding job. I was really happy that you didn't stain the base.

Beautiful work! I'm especially enjoying your use of electrolysis to de-rust. I use it for occasional restorations and sometimes just to clean up an old tool that's grown a rusty coat. It costs almost nothing compared to buying gallons of rust remover fluid, and afterward one ends up with some brown water that has iron and washing-soda in it, instead of a nasty, brown, all used up rust-remover chemical to dispose of. Anyway, that's my rant on electrolysis. The crowning touch of this restoration was your making your own, proper japanning and applying it correctly. I have 100-year-old wood planes with japanning, and those parts have never rusted, but I also have brand new tools that have a very thin, shiny, pretty, nickel coating but begin rusting within just a few months. Thank you for making all the effort to do everything right and to never cut corners.
That was awesome! I've seen that coating before, mostly years ago but I hadn't thought much about it until I watched your video. It was great that you could duplicate it! Very interesting formula and the various times and temperatures in the curing process. I'm glad you gave the name of the process too. I love learning this stuff from you doc. Thank you!!
