100 Year Old Vacuum / Carpet Sweeper Restoration (Remaster?)

Video Description

Been working on this restoration for a while. It was challenging and time consuming. Sorry for the large upload gap; I'm still alive. This thing is a marvel of early 20th century engineering. I spent hours trying to find another one made by the same brand online and couldn't find anything. It's a mechanical bellows powered suction + carpet brush sweeper. Incorporating actual vacuum technology along with the sweeper, this thing was truly ahead of it's time. During this restoration I re-engineered / re-mastered a lot of the original designs so it's not really a restoration as many smart people in the comments will probably point out. _________________________________________________________________________ Instagram: BANNED FOR NO REASON Facebook: facebook.com/RestorationStationFB TikTok: tiktok.com/@restostaysh Products used in video: Hi-Temp Lab-Metal (liquid metal): https://amzn.to/3TFZZlg Caswell Black Oxide (bluing solution): https://amzn.to/42FYack Boeshield T-9: https://amzn.to/3EFlsCI PB Blaster: https://amzn.to/3JKeLCR Overture TPU Filament: https://amzn.to/3K3kS5J Hatchbox Wood PLA Filament: https://amzn.to/3K5UARb Spring Steel Wire: https://amzn.to/3lFIqVX Evap-o-Rust (rust removing solution): https://amzn.to/3JQiW0i Modge Podge glue: https://amzn.to/3Zdxb4L Spray Max 2k Epoxy Primer: https://amzn.to/3M7ndzd Spray Max Satin Black: https://amzn.to/40AXPpw Varathane Dark Walnut Stain: https://amzn.to/40lM06U Bulls Eye Shellac
