    Antique Ox-Tongue Iron - Restoration

    Pour a beer and watch the master at work for @ 25mins. Love the internal countersink tool at @ 11.12!

    Like the belt grinder, similar to my two and amazing bits of kit for removing metal. Also like the mixing glue and sawdust trick, used that a lot over the years!
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    That is very impressive attention to detail. Who makes their own washers!? A great result.

    He has a very impressive toolkit. Great videos.
    I like the tongue-in-cheek t-shirt; "I make a new one" is now firmly established as his catchphrase.
    Any guesses on his location? I'm going to say Switzerland or Poland?

    Very nice, thanks for posting!

    My late father had a good collection of irons. My son now has these three. Rest to be sold eventually.



    Smallest one has heated insert as in video,



    medium is spirit(?) powered and largest charcoal (or similar)

    The real highlight of this video is that the sandblaster switch finally got repaired (@2:46).
