  • In this restoration video, I will bring back to life an antique meat slicer produced in Westfalia, Germany. I bought it from an antique website, thinking it would make a significant restoration. This antique kitchen tool is beautiful and massive but beaten up by time. The restoration process was arduous because all the parts were rusty and stuck. The meat slicer was built from many parts that I had to restore individually. Took me almost two weeks to achieve this result. The paint on it was also lead-positive, so I had to dispose of the waste and wear a mask all the time. I love how this antique meat slicer turned out and am happy I could save it from decay.
    Now it is perfectly functional and can be used again!

    Hey, Y'all!!
    This meat slicer/food slicer is not only an antique meat slicer, but this is also a piece of art for me, and I consider myself lucky that I had the chance to work on it! The restoration process and video creation took me almost two weeks, but I'm thrilled with the result, and I hope you will enjoy it too! If you want to support my work, you can become a channel member! Your support will be much appreciated, and all your rusty coins will go into my new restoration projects! Cheers!

    Well, what kind of silly old chook am I? I’d heard of powder coating but I didn’t know it was actually powder that was puffed on then baked 🫤I don’t know what I thought. Anyway, fantastic job and what a wonderful item is that slicer.

    • @rustyshadesrestoration
      @rustyshadesrestoration  Před rokem +11

    • @TgWags69
      @TgWags69 Před rokem +9

      The puffed on part is actually more complicated. The paint is charged so when they apply electric to the parts via the suspension wires , it becomes attracted to the part. Like static electricity and a dryer sheet lol.

These modern-day meat slicers were even shown in the Stephen King horror flick called Children of the Corn, an Adult Nightmare. The former New York Governor Bill DeBlasio wouldn't be writing these kinds of horror stories. 🍖 🥓 🥩 🍖

    Наглядное свидетельство того, что качественное эмалевое покрытие практически вечно, если не допускать сколов на нём. Но дорогостоящщее в изготовлении. Даже в СССР газовые плиты, газовые водогрейные колонки покрывались эмалью - как правило, белого цвета - видимые снаружи поверхности, а чёрной или тёмно-синей - внутренние части, например, стенки духовки. Производилось огромное количество эмалированной посуды - кастрюли, чайники, вёдра, детские горшки и многое другое. В настоящее же время эмаль уступила место порошковой и алкидной краске, которые менее износостойкие.

    В 1895 видимо ещё не было требований изготавливать пищевое оборудование из нержавеющей стали.
    Современная мясорубка уже не ржавеет.

      нержавеющая сталь была разработана только в 1913 году, так что нет, ее не использовали в 1895 году

    I'm really surprised by how good the condition of threads and other steel parts ...
