  @@oldfart9287 I shot the 'after' footage before I adjusted the jaws and then showed it in action, I just didn't record the adjusting. Watch the last 10 seconds of the video and you'll see the jaws are closed and flush. Also, if you watch any of my other bolt cutter restoration videos I do show the jaw adjustment on camera, since people like you asked to see it on camera.

  If you get tired of spending a lot on rust remover like evapo-rust, white vinegear will do the same thing (just takes a few days instead of 24 hours) and only costs about $2.50 a gallon.

• 
  @CatalystRestorations24 күн бұрын

  @@Rebel9668 for sure! I do just need to make one point clear to anyone else reading these comments: rust removal with vinegar can give you a similar outcome as Evapo-Rust, but the chemicals themselves and the process in how they remove rust is entirely different!

• 
  @Rebel966824 күн бұрын

  I modified mine because operating it loose on a desktop like that with its pinch mechanism has always seemed like a three-handed job. I drilled out the two rivets on mine's base, slightly enlarged the holes and then screw mounted it to a wall stud. Made it much easier to handle...and yes, I do oil the two holes on the backside, lol. I like that you electroplated the pieces in nickel. What sort of power supply do you use? I thought an old school "dumb" battery charger like a Schumacher 12v 6-10amp might work as I have one of those. Me being me, I'd probably get a wild hair and plate everything in copper to have one that looked unique, lol. The main reason I never subscribe to these types of restoration channels is that I get bored with their silence. Not that I want a music overlay, which is even worse. But TALK to us. Let us know what mistakes you had along the way instead of just editing everything out. I mean, unless you sound like Fran Drescher or something it doesn't need to be a subtitled film.

• 
  @CatalystRestorations24 күн бұрын

  For my nickel plating I use the same power source I use for my electrolysis - an old laptop charger. I have an entire video on my channel dedicated to showing you how to set that up. Also, I sound exactly like Fran Drescher.

  I have one in pretty good working order which looks like this. However, it chews up the wood in the pencil, which makes me think the cutting blades aren't sharp? I saw some cutters on ebag and got them, and now I am a bit too faint-hearted to try to take the thing apart to replace them. How would I know if dull cutters are the issue? any other suggestions for getting a cleaner "grind"? finally, are the cutters model specific? I cannot find a model number on my Boston per say, but inside the case, under the mechanism, are 2 numbers , a 5 and a 57

• 
  @CatalystRestorations25 күн бұрын

  @@PamelaLinnell One suggestion for your existing blades to help maybe give them more "bite" is soaking them in vinegar for a couple of days. If that doesn't work, you could try repeating with stronger vinegar (sometimes called cleaning vinegar). If that still doesn't seem to help, finding fresh pairs would be a good next idea. You could try searching "Boston pencil sharpener 57" or something like that, but I'm afraid that's a bit outside my wheelhouse. I'm not sure if all/most Boston sharpeners around that time all used the same cutters, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were!
