It's nice that you added the info about cost and time at the end. People, myself included, often underestimate the effort that goes into these restaurations. Great work!
I was the one who suggested this a couple videos back and you replied saying you'd try it out and I'm happy to see it! Honestly the materials cost all in was less than I expected. And it makes me appreciate your content even more knowing it took 3 weeks for us to enjoy 15 minutes of viewing. Thanks for another fun project, excited as always to see what's on your table next!
I saw your poll early today, don't forget there are about 91K of us who think this content is great. Don't be discouraged, this was a great item and interesting video, particularly the electronics. Great stuff!
You see the thumbnail for these videos pop up and you don't think it's worth much to watch it... and then you watch it.. and you can't stop... and the zen overwhelms you.. and it's awesome. :)
Wow, nice job! Thanks also for posting the cost/time at the end. I like the way you put a video together, showing us enough but not every. single. rivet. Perfectly edited.
Nice vid and a perfect restoration. BUT... The green-yellow ground connection is a very bad joke. Soldering on paint can't work and soldering on steel is difficult. Just crimp an connector on the cable an fix it with a screw. 😊 Greetings
What a great restoration you are very talented and you amazed me with all the electrical elements you had tou sort out and the pieces you made . Well done
Thank you for doing what YOU like to do. If you do what you're passionate about, we will follow. Don't ever do things just because others tell you to do them.
This was a great restoration. The only thing that I would suggest doing differently is to make a recess for the fuse and speed switch so that this could sit or hang flat against a wall. Also that is a very sweet little spot welder you have. Now to print yourself some non conductive tongs to hold the piece you are welding.
I want more videos please!!!! I have watched them all and there are not a lot of them. Please please please! You’re my favorite of all the restoration videos and you are so talented, and can make almost ANYTHING from scratch! Instead of other people who buy all the new parts…
You did a very good job! Regarding such a thing is quite easy to rebuild exactly this way, i have to say i value the patina over the finished look this time.
my favorite channel about restoration. always amazing results. the main thing is often interesting and extraordinary things to restore. thanks for your work
I am surprised by how much it cost only because the restoration project looked so good I thought man this must sell for a lot so it's probably expensive to restore and I wasn't far off I guessed 300 bucks to restore maybe it's like a 500 dollar or more sign 🙂 very beautiful end result though, I am like I would love one of these but I am sure it's far out of my budget ha ha it's stunning :) I am working on building a solarium for my mom and my niece who love to garden and was thinking of making a cafe and all that and this sign would just be so cool to use.
Thoughtful and innovative melding of old and new technologies, and original and repro parts. Better than when new, and the heart of the old is still there. sometimes it's neat to lave a patch with original paint and patina.
Was this previously owned by the King of France? How is it possible this was listed for $80?? lol It seems overvalued at $8 in its original condition. Amazing restoration, as always. The inclusion of costs at the end is a real winner. Especially when you consider people might come back to watch this 50 years from now. :)
12:05 Dont tin the wire and then crimp it. You get better and longer lasting connection without the soldering tin. The tinning just makes it more brittle and likely to break.
It's nice that you upgraded some components especially the built in electronics and bulbs with latest LED technology. I am interested to watch restoration videos, not only restoring the item but upgrading too to the current technology. Furthermore I also enjoyed watching recreating lost or damaged parts. I'm glad you included the 3D printing sessions in your video. Great job! Do the same thing to your future videos.

Was just going to post this. So many times I watch restoration videos and wonder "How Long" & "How Much" . Thank you OTND!
Seconded!
I don't know if it was a good idea after all, seeing how shocked people are by the price of the object 😅
@@OldThingsNeverDie- highly appreciated by me as well! The "shock" is meant as compliments!

Now all you need is the letters T.N.D. and you can mount it on your wall for everyone to see as they watch your videos.. nice work as always...
Yes!
This was my thought too :)
I thought about it too 🤣
Not a typical thing you see being restored. Was very interesting to watch you bring it back to it's former glory. Great video 😎
Thank you Paul ! 👍
I suspect "to better than its former glory".
I've never saw a spot welding machine but jeez it's efficient!

Thank you al3k 😊
Enjoy your new addiction, boss
Awesome! Loved the sound when cutting all the little bits, and the switch turning the video off
You paid 80 bucks for "that"? Lol! Thats what i call dedication. Turned out great, as always
The guy shoud have paid him $80 to take away that piece of smashed rust.
It was a nice touch to add those LEDs that look like vintage bulbs
I love that you restored the old light sockets!
Very impressive refurbishing project. I was wondering what you could actually do with such a piece. Well seems quite a lot it looks... Thumbs Up
I don’t care what it is you are restoring, I’m watching at least 5x.
You're so good at this! I love watching how precise you are and how you can bring what most would call junk, back to it's former glory.
Wow, nice job! Thanks also for posting the cost/time at the end.

Thank you 😊
wow amazing transformation! I'm always so awed by your work! you have immense patience and are meticulously detailed
What a funky thing to buy and restore. Great job.
Nicely done. Saving a bit of history from the junkyard and giving it new life. 👍
Old and busted ➡️ new hotness. Always a joy to see your amazing work!

Really liked the little recap at the end! Continue comme ça!
Merci 😊
The whimsical items are always my favorite. Thanks for the post.
I love watching someone repair old things :)
I like how you added the price to this video. I realize you can't always break it down perfectly, but Its gives perspective.
A joy to see this process as ever! such skill, patience and perfection!
I love these videos. My son had shop in school. He disliked sandblasting.
This is by far the coolest restoration video I have seen.
Another great restoration.

Also that is a very sweet little spot welder you have. Now to print yourself some non conductive tongs to hold the piece you are welding.
Amazing restoration!!!
Well not something I'd ever thought I'd watch but here i am
You are AWESOME. LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF THE VODEO
I want more videos please!!!! I have watched them all and there are not a lot of them. Please please please! You’re my favorite of all the restoration videos and you are so talented, and can make almost ANYTHING from scratch! Instead of other people who buy all the new parts…
oh sick i've never seen a spot welding machine before. that was cool
The music of the drill was fantastic! I smile through every one of your videos, only broken by a frequent surprised laugh at your humor.
Welcome back
Yay! I'm so glad you posted a new video! I was re-watching the old ones 🙈
Beautiful work!
Cool I like it thanks for sharing.
Omg I would’ve never imagined the cost of it. Great job!
Very nice job! As usual.
The video I didn't know I needed today. Watching this brought me weirdly... a lot of joy 🎉❤ Thank you ✨️🙌
Amazing finishing, well done🎉
As always, amazing work. That is an interesting piece to restore, love it! The quality and care you put into your work/craft is amazing!!!
You did a very good job! Regarding such a thing is quite easy to rebuild exactly this way, i have to say i value the patina over the finished look this time.
I love your talent and what you do with it. Thank you so much, God bless you.
At first I thought: oh h*ll no!!!
Turns out to be one of the best yet!!!
Unbelievable!! 😀👍🏻
Why was that your first thought
my favorite channel about restoration. always amazing results. the main thing is often interesting and extraordinary things to restore. thanks for your work
Love the cost and time infos a the end! I always wonder about it when whatching restoration videos
Now that was an awsome restore!!
well done!!! love this project
Welcome back. I've missed you.
I love it!
Nice job.
Buen trabajo me gusta la sencillez de como haces los pasos para llegar al final de la restauración saludos desde Uruguay
brilliant work!
Ух ты здорово получилось. Спасибо, лайк.
Sick presentation at the end, love the beat.
That's a different thing to restore for sure! I loved the end result with the techno music! 😎
Nice job thumbs up! I thought you’d work on the panel to make it flatter. But the result looks great
Great restoration, looks like new.
Also, you should team up with the dude named "The Fisher" he magnet fishes and finds stuff out of waters! You two will make a good duo
Great restoration! ❤
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting piece!
Love your videos! So relaxing to watch! Please keep them coming!!
So beautiful so elegant just looking like a WOW
Building a PCB, so much fun
Love your editing and use of sound , too !

Wow, turned out amazing, great job. Probably looks better than when it was made the first time, lol😊
80 dollars? That would be very rare to find, otherwise I can't explain myself about the costs.
By the way, awesome restoration!!
Very niche, comment just for the algorithm to suggest your channel to new viewers.
And I appreciate the cost summary!
I love how not quite round this is.Makes it more authentic.
Hello mister beautiful restoration beautifully restored good job well done
Excellent job!
Now you just need to get a T, N and D! Excellent work! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Amazing job! It turned out great 👍 👌
Amazing Restoration 👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
beautiful. love it

Amazing work!
The full restoration on this was amazing I bet you could turn around and flip it for twice what it took to cost of restoration on it
That's awesome. Need to find more letters to make an amazing background for your pre and post reveals.
Beyond repair; that's what I thought😮! A fascinating watch.
Escolha criativa de objeto para restauro. Parabéns.
zmy favorite of your restorations to date!
You did a really good job with that light letter 👍.
It always fills me with joy to see a new video of yours ❤
My goal is to watch all of your videos! old or new I watch them no matter what. Btw I'm subbed to you..
12:05 Dont tin the wire and then crimp it.
You get better and longer lasting connection without the soldering tin.
The tinning just makes it more brittle and likely to break.
Beautifully done, loved every bit of it.
Lights turned off when you turned the switch on and vice versa 😂😂😂
Amazing work 🎉❤
Gotta love how extra you went for it. Not you just need the "LD THINGS NEVER DIE" letters for a full light display
It's nice that you upgraded some components especially the built in electronics and bulbs with latest LED technology.

Nicely done Sir !
Great restoration !!! 😁
@9:40 Honestly thought it was pretty cool to see you assemble the board, I've just started in on learning arduino so I took notes. :)
Excellent!!! 👏👏👏 😎
