Broken Japanese Sander Restoration

- So due to the worldwide crisis we are facing at the moment all of my bigger projects are on hold as i cant get any parts but i do have enough materials in stock to restore this cool old sander i have, its made by Nitto Kohki and im not sure of its age but it looks pretty old. It doesn't work just now but by the end of the episode it will ;)
So lets crack on!
First thing i do as always is to give the item a good check over to asses the condition then if all is good i proceed to taking it all apart. Taking this sander apart was a piece of cake and only took very basic tools which is nice for a change. Once apart it was clear to see why the sander wasn't working. Due to age the internal air hose had dried out and broken into several pieces , Nice easy fix :) I then proceeded to sandblast all the parts that were painted and treated all the rusty fixings in a bath of deox c. While the rust was being dissolved i prepped and primed the parts i had just cleaned up in the blaster first with a coat of etch primer then a coat of high build 2k primer which was left to cure while i got on with the zinc plating. The plating was done with my usual methods and the parts were giving a nice yellow passivate instead of silver as i feel it goes better with the white body of the sander. Once plated the parts were left to cure and i set about wet flatting the primed parts to leave me with a nice smooth surface to lay the paint down on. For the paint i was tempted to do something wild but then i decided against it and went with the stock colours. these were applied and left to dry while i made up the stencil to replicate the original lettering on the top case. The stencil was applied and surrounding areas masked off and then it was given a coat of black before being unmasked and clear coated to seal in the lettering. I then set about the next job which was buffing and polishing the rest of the parts needed to put the sander back together this was done with a polishing mop in my pillar drill. Then it was simply a case of re-assembly.
I hope you enjoy it and ill see you all in the next video.

Broken Japanese Sander Restoration - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Hey Guys, As you have probably noticed already i have updated the channel name and logo. The channel is no longer Really Random Channel it is now RRC Restoration. Just incase you were wondering why the water marks in the video still say Really Random Channel. Enjoy.
What a gem! Watching your videos brings me a sense of inner peace, seeing your attention to detail is truly inspiring!
Thank you for your kind comment, im glad you enjoy the videos :)
An enormous THANK YOU to you and all CZcams content creators for providing all of us with additional content during this very trying time!
Thank you for your kind comment and a massive thanks to yourself for watching our videos :)
I can't believe that some people give a thumbs down to your videos... I find them always interesting, informative and a pleasure to watch. Fantastic job as usual!
Thank you for your kind comment :)
I never knew air sanders had a ball bearing with race in them... Man learn something new everyday, stay safe mate and thanks for the video!
Thank you :) Stay safe
Honestly nobody would complain if you left the entire sandblasting footage in there. Great work as always.
I could possibly make a sand blasting compilation for you at some point i must have hours of blasting footage saved up by now ;)
@@RRCRestoration that sounds so amazing omg
There will be some work of yours that is not perfect??? GREAT
I repeat, the best restoration youtube channel is yours!
New life for old tools, I really like it !
Glad you enjoyed it :)
That was fun! Please show ALL the sandblasting, bc thats shit I like a lot, idk why. If I mind I could skip a bit. Nice vid, as always .Thx mate.
, fantastic craftsmanship again , absolutely love watching this genius of a man and his videos
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Great break down and re build. Always fun to see how items come apart aswell as go back together.
Thank you,Glad you enjoyed it :)
i love watching your videos, cause you always go the xtra mile, to give us quality content.
Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
Interesting hand sander. Can't say I've ever seen one like that before. Interesting how they make it sand/vibrate using the ball... Thumbs Up!
Been a fan for a long time, he does a terrific job of the restorations, quality work.
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Nice job. Also very interesting to see how it looks from the inside, with the ball and all.
Thank you, Im glad you enjoyed it :) I was actually surprised when i opened it to find a ball bearing i thought it was going to be some sort of counterweight mounted on a shaft.
You always make things look easy, well done.
Thank you very much :)
nice work old Japanese made tools are made. so solid
As always a wonderful new episode from the master. Thanks for sharing. I think you should hook up with (Kate Raworth famous for the Doughnut economic model) she lives in oxford I believe, as you are showing the value of restoring and reusing instead of buying new things. There is value in teaching and executing on this model and you maybe helping show the many folks who just don't appreciate the value of restoring and reusing. If it is not a big issue, it would be nice to be able to see your workshop and the tools and organization of them. It is nice to see something that is positive in these times where fear and xenophobia are on the rise. Keep it up mate..
As usual first class work, thanks for the video.👍👍👍
Thank you for watching and commenting :)
I totally and completely understand how you need to protect what is yours! Pretty sad how and why you need to resort to this but we ALL need to protect what is ours! Great work as always n cheers from Canada and hope is all good @ your end as well!
Thank you for leaving a comment, Everything at this end is ok at the moment, i hope all is good in Canada aswell.
When it comes to Really Random Channel, I always like the video before watching it!
Thank you very much :)
Turned out and looks great!
a perfect job. congratulations!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you :)
From Portugal. Excellent restoration. Good work. Great way to be at home and have a busy time. Stay at home. Congratulations. More restorations for us to see. A hug and lots of health.
Thank you very much for your kind comment. Stay safe :)
Great restoration. As ever your attention to detail, and your pride in your work, really makes your videos shine. Thank you for taking the time and the effort to make, edit, and post great content during these strange times. I do hope you and your family are all safe and well.
Selfishly, my Wife decided to have a heart attack last week. We were both surprised to find out that she even had a heart, lol. Seriously though she really did have a heart attack, and had to have a stent fitted. You will be pleased to know she is back home and feeling good now, so I did not have to go too many days without a hot brew. What more can a man want, but a really random channel new video, and a brew. God bless you brother.
Hi, Pleasure to see you in the comment section again and im so sorry to hear about your wife i hope her and yourself are keeping well. I apologize for the late reply but as you say these are strange times we are living in just now and everything is up in the air. Stay safe.
Top job Sir, as always.
Nice to see you ,Thank you for leaving a comment :)
Excellent job, better than new!!
Thank you very much :)
Superb Job!! Nice to be able to count on some restorations still...one can only watch so much Netflix!! Stay safe from the Pacific Northwest, USA!
Thank you very much im glad to be of service :) Stay safe.
Always good! Thank you. Les

Another great!!! Thanks again stay safe!
Thank you very much :) stay safe.
Amazing work, beautyfull.
Thank you :)
I’m so sorry I missed this video 😭 got caught Up with work. Glad I found this in my feed🥳🔥🔥🔥
Fan from India 🇮🇳
Nice to see you again :) Not to worry my videos are always here for you.
Good Restoration Done 👍
Very nice restore
Thank you , Nice to see you again.
Nice resto! Too bad the little Free Sander wasn't able to sand itself but I am sure he enjoyed being sanded for once. I was worried you forgot the logo for a minute.
Fantastic restoration of an interesting tool! Thank you so much for posting! 😃 Although, if you can find a new pad to put on the bottom (that doesn't have worn out corners), it would make me very happy! 😝
Thank you very much for watching and commenting. Oh i know exactly what you mean i started the project thinking i had some closed cell foam lying around the workshop to make a new pad but surprise surprise its not there anymore i was gutted at putting the old pad back on :(
Nice video again bro . keep em coming and keep safe.
Thank you very much :) Stay safe
Nice 👍 would be proud to have that in my workshop. Great content that is very well produced to keep us interested to the end. Pleased you showed it working at the end..
Thank you very much for your kind comment and im very glad you enjoyed it :)
Best part is to see you doing OK 👍🤗
Nice to see you again. Yeah im doing fine just keeping to myself and going out as little as possible. I hope you are doing well too?
great upload
loved it. ta
Always enjoy your videos, this one was no exception! Maybe you could do like I did for little spray jobs like this & build yourself a lazy susan table for turning the piece around while spraying to get into the awkward bits, save doing a marathon round the table!
Thank you, Glad you enjoy the videos. Yeah i really do need to buy or make a nice lazy susan as you say running around tables does get tiring haha
11:28 I can see a future project here ;) also a great video yet again
I thought the Random Channel popping here and there was a feature; now I read that its for "copyright". I really enjoy it anyways.
Thanks for another great video!
Yeah i had to do something to deter the people that steal my videos most days :( It seems to be working. Glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@RRCRestoration for a fact, some pages take restoration videos and put them on Facebook for like farming. Shameful.
Good job!! At least now you have another tool.That you can use on other projects!
Thank you , Yeah these little sanders are fantastic for certain sanding jobs :)
Suka dengan prosesnya detil sekali 👍.
Nice one mate
Thank you :)
Good job.
Thank you :)
Very very good
Thank you :)
Very interesting! I would have thought there was a little off center weight on a spinning pivot rather than a big ball bearing shooting around a tunnel. That's really cool!
Nice to see you , Yeah i was expecting the exact same when stripping it down it was a pleasant surprise to see how simple it was inside :)
@@RRCRestoration Same. and as a fan of particle physics and the Cern LHC I giggled when I saw it because first thing I thought of was a particle accelerator.
Bravo
Great work, love your videos ! 2 remarks if I may : when applying teflon tape
- it is recommended to make about 7 windings
- it is to be wound in a counterclockwise direction, so when you screw in the part, the teflon is not loosened but tightened
- the excess is to be cut off so it doesn’t end up in your equipment’s innards after a while
Thank you for leaving a comment, constructive criticism is always welcomed :)
7 windings is a bit much. I think you pulled that out of your butt.
As always, great restoration, looks amazing.
And I love opening a video before the little basement trolls start giving them a thumbs down (zero right now).
Thank you very much im glad you enjoyed it :)
Hey! nice work, as usual. your parts come out gorgeous.
may I ask: why do you use this multiprocess pllating system. There are lots of people who use simple electro plating...
I was curious about the advantages of the system you use..
thanks!

Hi RRC that's a rare beast, looks good, i have come to the conclusion you must like a takeaway or 2 you always seem to have them tubs to hand he he, hope you & yours are keeping well, ATB wayne.
Always a pleasure to see you, I can see why you'd think that but i buy these containers online in bulk since they are so handy only a couple are from the takeaway ......honest ;) haha. Yeah we are all fine here , Hope you and your family are all staying safe aswell.
I'm new to the channel, but really like it. Regulars may know the answer to my question, but... What is the powder product used to clean the parts? and... is there a video just on plating, where to get the chemicals from and what other finishes are available. Great work! Thank you RMC :)
Very nice video! Just a tip about the side where you used the file: with a flat furface (glass) and sand paper you can get very good results. If it's iron/steel, the use water or kerosene for a smooth surface finish. Cheers!
Thank you, and thanks again for the tips ill bu sure to try that out in the near future :)
Beautiful!! 5 ***** (Stay safe my friend) xx
Thank you so much :) Stay safe.
That must be the best looking Japanese sander. . . . .all the Chinese sanders must be so jealous LOL😂😂😂
Haha thank you :)
Very nice work as always my friend. Quick question. Did the set screws have the Japanese screw head pattern because I couldn't quite make out if they had a centre punch dot or not? 🤔
@@RRCRestoration .Brilliant. I restored an old Kawasaki Z650SR 25 years ago when I was in my 20's and could never figure out why I struggled to undo the screws until my grandad told me why. 👍🏻
How about a large capacity in line 4 sometime 🤘🤘
Perfeito.
As always stellar job mate. Also do you have a link for that o-ring kit I would love to have one like it for my restorations
Thank you very much :) Sorry i dont have the link or make as i bought the kit a few years back now ,sorry :(
All good. I guess the hunt begins to look for it.
I really dig the self-promoting sticker face down see-through the "Tupperware".
Good...🇬🇧☺️
Cool
Thanks
what are those chemicals you use to do the plating please? and where can i get them from. I want to replate my motorcycle bolts, to stop them rusting :)
Thanks
Also think ball bearing needs light oiling ;-)
Good idea, or smear the rolling track with a little grease.
Maybe graphite, grease would reduce it's effectiveness I think.
@@Ray_Sellner yes, a tiny bit. It's just how bearings work, though. You don't want that hardened roller wearing out the cast iron outside race. That small amount of grease provides a film that protects the outside race.
This sander looks new now
Looks and performs like new :)
Quick question, sometimes you use paintstripper before sandblasting but this time you went straight to sandblasting, is there a reason behind this or how is the procedure for this? Thanks and great job!!
HI, Nice question im glad you asked, If a paint or powder coat is particularly thick or tough i like to weaken it with paint stripper first to take the strain off of the air compressor and the blast media, using paint stripper first means i can blast at a lower pressure and save wear on the compressor and blast media, for small items like this there is no need to pre- weaken the paint.
Really Random Channel thanks a lot for the reply! Very useful information! Keep up the good work and be safe during this times!
I watching most videos but I cant find your procedure to zinc plating which is mentioned in video with brembo calipers.
Cool video!
What is the main difference between loctite 243 and 246?
Thanks
I would love to be able to tell you but im not sure myself haha but im sure someone more qualified to comment will tell us both :) Thanks for leaving a comment :)
8:00 Can you explain all this liquids, What's the procedure, or any link explaining the same.Thanks!
Im going to be making a video explaining my plating process soon ;)
Mmmm Shiny. It's Japanese though, so I don't believe for a minute that it was broken. lol
Great job dude.
Nice to see you again, Haha i can assure you it was broken, the air hose was so brittle it had broken into 3 pieces ;) Are you looking forward to the Red Dwarf special on the 9th? I know i am :)
@@RRCRestoration Absa-flippin-lutely! We've had to wait two years for another RD fix!
That'll be great for sanding the burnt bits off toast.
It does the job nicely haha. Nice to see you again .
@@RRCRestoration nice to see you doing well sir!
👏👏👏👍👍👍
What is the machine that cuts the green sheet called?
I admire your work too much, I'm from Brazil, I would like to know what liquids are these that you use to leave the pieces as new, that you take out of a plastic box and put in another?
That is electroplating. Wikipedia for details.
And by the way, I hope you are doing okay, and hope the best for you and all of Brazil !
thank you very much and I am, yes, I hope you too, my friend, God bless you!
Here in Belgium, the figures are slowly improving now, and our medical people are fighting this like champs !! We’ll be fine, but our economy will be badly hit ... Recovery will take many many years !
God guide us on this difficult journey
🥇👍👍👍👍
Why wasn't the colours strained?
Was it broken?
I wish he showed how it worked or didn't work, too! However, from the brittle air hose he showed during the build half, it likely didn't work too well.
Hi, @fletchro789 was correct in mentioning the air hose, this had broken into several pieces stopping the air from reaching the ball bearing chamber.
Isolate your self in the workshop instead of at home with the family, great plan wish i'd thought of that
Haha yeah lots to be keeping yourself entertained with in the workshop :) Stay safe.
I mostly watch restoration channels for the sand blasting. Please don't cut off so much.
Im planning on making a sandblasting compilation since lots of you enjoy the blasting segments :)
I'm missing something, what's the air source?
The air source is my workshops air compressor.
This beats the bags off of pornhub during lockdown!!
Curious if you can provide any more info about the gasket selection- great kit!!
What is it sander?
Use it with different grit sandpaper to remove marks from a surface, and to give a smooth finish.
@@fletchro789 o thank you )
He sanded the sander
I see 👀you got a Free sander 🤣😂🤣😂🤣5:26
You put the tape on the wrong direction
thats a very low tech solution for vibration
Low tech but works a treat :)
restore your drilling machine
Its on the to do list ;)
2nd
Took me 18 minutes to figure out why there was no electric motor.
😕
Censored thumbnail because it's Japan
I see what you did there ;) lol
everyone sees this as your channel why unload everywhere ????
