1871 Candy Drop Roller Restoration - Thomas Mills
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 02. 2022
- Today I'm restoring a drop candy roller machine made by Thomas Mills & Bro. Making candy is much more fun and easy than I expected! The machine is made of heavy cast iron and the rollers are bronze. I started by sandblasting it to remove the rust, then powder coating to bring it back the shine and finally making lots of candy.

Dude actually making the candy at the end was the cherry on top. Truly amazing. What a restoration!
There’s a pretty cool channel where a guy still makes candy in a shop with similar machines. Not anything I would follow but cool if you need a relevant distraction.
Edit: what the f is going on in the bottom of these comments? The channel I was talking about is brought up but I can’t even find the reply now. Just don’t interact with these comments.

@@FumblsTheSniper channel name?
Definitely awesome to see the candy making. 🍬
It's one thing to watch someone restore something. It's another thing entirely to watch a restoration get use after so many years/decades. ^^
So this guy is an expert in powder coating, metal working, wood working, sandblasting, milling, finishing, mechanics, knows how to brass plate with heat, and can cook sugar to the perfect temperature without burning it (very tricky for the inexperienced) to make hard candy. What a beautiful restoration and display of an impressive array of skills!
I want to be him so much lol
Well said, but you did forget to mention producing, lighting, recording video and audio, and editing these masterfully sensory videos together (perhaps the most difficult achievement of all if you consider their popularity and mileage)! Bravo to this wunderkind! 👏
Jack of all trades.
I would have loved if he explained every step, i dont know enough about anything of these things to understand most of what he did.
Ikr
Man, I miss this channel. Back in college when I was at my lowest and really close to suicide (nights were definitely the worst part of the day), these videos were the only thing that would lull me to sleep, years later I’m doing better and still grateful for them. This channel allowed me to turn the terrible thoughts off for a minute and focus on a great, satisfying and beautifully filmed restoration. Rescue and Restore, I hope you are doing great wherever you are!!! Thank you for everything!!!
Thank you for sharing. That means a lot!
Damn.
Happy to read that now you are okey 🥰
I’m currently in your past shoes. Good to see there’s a light at the end
@@DeannaBoneman there is, never forget that. You might hit your lowest point and think there won’t be any getting better but there is. I’ve come to find it’s the natural cycle of a life, things will always fall into place in time
I miss your videos. They’re genuinely the best restoration vids on here, and I still binge em from time to time.
where have they gone? I feel like Im watching them over and over hope they are ok
Maybe he’s been busy with other stuff and hasn’t had time to make videos. Considering he’s hearting comments from 2 months ago he’s still online, so he may have quit making videos or more likely just hasn’t had any time
It's like he had a perfect tool for everything. That is some incredible skill, and the camera work is also top notch.
He even used a card as a paintbrush, and it turned out good
If I were to try to do this I would mess up and rage lol
I’d forget we’re to put everything lmaoo but that was smooth 💅😩

I was like "WAIT THERES MORE" at every turn! Making candy with it in the end was absolutely delightful oh my gOD. I may have said it before on a different video, but that powder painting and baking always is my favorite part watching it go from a powder to shiny. Absolute master at your craft and this came out stunning!
Don't mean to be "that guy" but the process is called powder coating. It's really common and pretty easy to actually do, and it's especially common in the aftermarket automotive parts industry.
@@bruhmoment8388 less of a “that guy” moment and more fun fact! thanks for letting us know
You should check out lofty pursuits on CZcams! They make lots of candies with an identical tool for their public displays of confection! And you get to learn something in every video!
@@MYLAR. Fair enough, I really don't like people who try to be smarter than everyone else. My best friend started a powder coating business not too long ago and I helped him get set up so I know a little about it.
Yes yes yes! Me too. I was smitten with the candy making part. I also look forward to powder painting parts.
I just watched some candymakers react to this restoration and im so happy to see people recognizing the effort you put into your restorations 💖
Ну, тут как по маслу идет, хорошо, когда не сильно ржавая вещь, прям легче смотреть. ❤
It's been so long since any posts. I keep coming back to this channel and seeing this video as the most recent one. If you're still restoring things to this day, I want to let you know that your videos have helped me relax, unwind, and even help me fall asleep while you were still posting. Hope you're okay. And I look forward to the next video when it comes
he has a shorts channel! so i suspect thats why they havent focused on longer projects like this one
He’s busy rolling in money at the moment
he said in a post 6 months ago in the community tab that he was working on videos, looks like that’s not happening
My 3 year old son loves your content - this video in particular
That's what I'm starting to think aswell
He even restored some of the screws and bolts instead of replacing them
An amazing restoration indeed.
13:30
I know!!! Only replacing the ones that actually needed replacing 🤯
@@bethlovesthings and the fact that he *made the new ones himself*
That is call love for what restoring term, means to him. I figure, that a part have to be in a really bad shape for him to replace. Like the wood handle. Making one was nice and it shows his wood crafting talent.
Whats tgat vibrating sand thing he put the bolts in?
The part I love the most about this is that there’s no annoying music in the background. You’re just allowed to enjoy and admire the sounds of tools going to work in a very silent and calm environment. Great video.
Agreed. 100%
So basically straightforward asmr?
Honestly, I just watch it because its cool, people find asmr in everything
@@quartizejose6254 what the hell is ASMR?
@@MagisterHamid it's a loud munching or slime sounds
That machine was made six years after the American Civil War ended and he restored it to look like it was manufactured yesterday - amazing. This was so satisfying to watch, and making the candy at the end was the cherry on top!
It’s a lot better than when it was originally made.
Which is a problem, right? I like a lot of his restorations but this one felt like he was erasing history by milling it and removing the evidence of the original casting.@@acptelford1307
First timer here and you had me at the Lead Check! Thank you for checking so that I could sit back and enjoy the beautiful restoration without my mind constantly thinking about it being toxic. The attention to detail is so amazing and the video was super enjoyable!
You can imagine my delight at seeing this transformation, as Thomas Mills was my maternal great-grandfather! Thank you for your effort. It brought joy and wonder to me and my siblings to watch this.
No way
Woah
Wow! You must’ve felt so proud 😊
Can I ask you a question? My grandfather was in the candy making business and has some of these rollers. One we have says M&M and is square in shape. Does that stand for Mills and Mills? We treasure these brass rollers but don't know much about them.
Wow!
"Like watching paint dry" takes on a different meaning when you're watching a time lapse of powder coat paint being baked. It's so satisfying. Love the restoration!
I came from that video too 🤣 he's totally in the wrong 🤯
I have no idea what you people are talking about. Is the person wrong about the paint drying thing or purposely giving misinformation?
Ma ?}~✓

Technically it's drying.
i love you rescue and restore!! you rescued and restored my heart when i was going through it a couple of years ago🫶 rewatching for old times’ sake😊
This channel has brought me a lot of joy over time. I remember setting up a discord bot to tell me when a new video dropped so I wouldn't miss it.
With that said it's been a while since the last post and I will say I definitely miss it! Other channels just don't do it quite the same as this one.
Hope you all the best! Keep on restoring!
I have a problem with insomnia and I just remembered that I used to watch your videos before bedtime because its very calming and it helps me drift to sleep. I’ve been checking your channel now and then to see if you’ve uploaded new videos because I’ve watched them all. I tried to watch other restoring channels but I dont love their videos the way I love yours. I just wanna say that I’ll be waiting for more uploads ☺️☺️
You could also try watching those stop motion woodworking videos those are so cool
Me too
These videos prevent me from sleeping lmao

Wow. I don't have a need for a candy drop roller (or most of the stuff on this channel), but if I ever did, I'd much rather have one that was given the R&R treatment than a brand spanking new one. The craftsmanship and the quality of these restorations is amazing. These pieces are reborn better than they ever were. It is incredibly soothing and satisfying to watch.
If those objects are alive, I bet they would thank R&R a lot
@@rochelimit55555 😊👍
The quality between a new one and one given this treatment is probably much different. Like this one was restored PERFECTLY. A new one could never be this nice.
What surprises me is that you are the only restorer I've seen that does lead checks on things. Thank you for checking!
It’s been two years, please come back the world needs you!
Considering this tool is from 1871, it was in really good condition. Minimal rusting, very few stuck or broken pieces, and still 'worked' without restoration. It's amazing how well some old tools were made compared to some things we get today that barely last for a few months. The end product was simply beautiful as well, great job!
Isupport studied English with this
I restarted English after 10 years

Please come and take a look and
sadly companies are motivated by money, and the most efficient way to make money is for the same people to keep buying your products when they break…
companies that made durable things never had any repeat customers. they usually go bankrupt.
Made by 100% lead... Most old items are made with pure materials hence they last long. These days resources are pricey.. So all opt for cheaper materials higher quantity of products hence more profit
What non-electrical items don’t last a long amount of time?
I was thinking the same, no pitting at all
I had not thought that this level of restoration was even possible, it's damn near magic.
Honestly, it's better than new. The base casting was cheaply done, full of voids, bubbles, and pores, making it hard to keep clean. The epoxy filler and the ceramic/epoxy coating filling the gaps and gave smooth, lustrous finish that is both visually spectacular and likewise easy to clean.
@@lairdcummings9092 Damn dude you sure knew your stuff ever owned one before or you noticed it before it was restored. Hope one day I can do something like this but its all damn expensive XD
Dad used to say:
All it takes is time and money.

@@lairdcummings9092 thanks for telling us what he did with those coatings, I was wondering why he was putting things on then sanding it off again.
This whole video I couldn’t stop smiling. There’s so much talent and care taken to restore this beautiful product. Well done you should be so proud x
The best restoration video I’ve seen.
Concise.
Well recorded.
Restoration executed perfectly.
Truly the best!
The fact that he even made some candy at the end truly shows how much dedication he has to his work.
He always uses the items after restoration.
Did it ocurr to you that he might have bought and restored a candy drop roller because he wanted to make candy?
@@asvarien tbh no but makes sense, this dude probably just buys stuff he likes, and as a bonus, make money off restoring and recording
the reason i sat through the whole video lol
@@asvarien - not just that, *_lots of them._*
Told myself I would only watch a little bit, but ended up watching the whole video.I appreciate your time and effort you put into properly restoring items to their original splendor and beyond! Thanks great video

I hope life permits you to come back one day, brother. I especially love your Tonka restorations.
Your workspace, your hands, tools,... everything is in pristine condition.
I love that. Plus I agree with every single comment.
The fact that you were able to bring back a machine from 151 years ago is insane! Keep up the good work, history will be kept for the futire generations
futire 😎
@@twistedbetrayal7234 futire 😎
It's less insane than you'd imagine. Stuff was built a lot tougher back then. You won't see this stuff happening in 150 years to current items. The polymers would all dry/rot/stiffen up, so if there are restorations like this in the future it's going to be automated 3D printing stuff, not actually restoring the product.
You turned an old machine into a piece of art! So much eye for detail, just amazing!!!
Thank you for sharing with us!
Yes, just my thoughts.
Lets hope
so is fancy
It's ugly and vulgar looking now. Devoid of all charm.
Hey man, this channel was one of the last things my dad was able to enjoy on tv from his hospital bed. PTSD made it difficult to sleep at night, once the noises of people in the house died down, so this was a soothing, comforting thing. Now I get to watch these and feel a connection to him.
Ich bin bei jedem Video aufs Neue fasziniert, mit wieviel Geduld und handwerklichem Geschick alten Dingen ein neuer Glanz eingehaucht wird.
this man is a master of all traits he literally remade the whole thing and even knew how to use it, and he ACTUALLY used it! this was fun to watch
Apart from the shoddy mig welding.. you'd tig parts like that defo not mig

@@Imaworldstar-jw3yj cool?
Hooked on phonics much? Also your statement has the same weight if you took out the word literally.
Indeed man
The fact that he also knew we all wanted to see it work so he included a demonstration was absolutely brilliant
Made it!!!
What amazes me is 71 million people watching this gentleman restore a vintage candy dropper ❤
it isn't a restoration, it's a renovation. a restoration takes it back to how it would be originally. they didn't have powder coating in the 1800's when the roller was made
Какая красота. Особенно удивила покраска деталей. Волшебство превращения старых, ржавых деталей в сияющие, медные, стальные, чистые. Каждый кадр произведение искусства. Браво маэстро!
I hope this guy knows how much joy he brings to some people. Seeing these long forgotten objects be brought back life is so heart warming. This once brought joy to someone in the 1870s, and now it can once again be appreciated. Thank you!
None who was before 1870 or before to even see this is still alive, sadly

Come back, brother. The world needs you.
As a classic car enthusiast, I know that a “full restoration” is almost a unicorn. The people selling such have wide ranging definitions for restoration. The only one used by classic car purists is when the subject has been returned to the exact condition it was in when it left the manufacturer. This means restoring things that will never be seen after reassembly, requiring the complete dismantling of it - every nut, bolt and screw. This candy machine was restored to perfection.
Some people might be a bit picky if it wasn't restored using the same type of wood for the handle - some other small things.
Or slightly better in this case, making the metal smooth. Before it was just cast and painted. He smoothed out the casting marks.
@@Ja2808R Yeah, that was the only bit that made me wince a little, but the end product speaks for itself!
cartard
I don't know, so much of the original material was removed without need, just for looks. I'd expected more preservation, now it's more recycled.
That “Candy Red” you chose is just gorgeous.
Perfect for the machine.
I don't like that all the history and 'patina' has been removed and that bits are cut-off/altered. But I guess there's be no vid if things were just appreciated for the history of beautiful found objects as they are.
Still lovely rediscovering the polished metals
czcams.com/video/8qvryw-FQdc/video.html
@@ellaova yeah, sad to see the objects lose their original form
@@ellaova You're telling me the rusty unused piece of metal is more charming than the working version? I personally find machines doing their intended job far more satisfying than a rusty paperweight sitting in a closet for decades.
It's amazing to be able to use such precise tools and execute them.
And be confident that it will heal. The hard work, the imagination, everything is perfect and amazing. It's a savior!
Watching you expertly restore this was wonderful, but you took it to a whole other level when you used it! You've got a new sub here.

Really loved watching you rescue and restore that candy maker. I don't know why, but it is so fascinating watching the powder coating being baked on and the clear coat going from the powder to a shiny clear. Then to watch you actually use it to make candy was wonderful. Thank you for the work you put in to restoring and making this video.

My jar dropped at the end. I couldn't imagine a way to get little round candies out of that sheet of sugar bubble wrap. The simple solutions are often the best. 👌
Amazing restoration!!
Stupid me would have gone at it with a pair of kitchen scissors or something..
Your jar dropped? Did it break?
@@SchoolGNM Yes, it broke. There is actually a website about that jar and the guy with the thing in the place.
Don’t worry they sell 12 packs of jars at Target.
It's why they're called "drops", because you drop them to break them apart.
Man, this was like watching a magic trick but seeing the process makes it even more magical instead of taking that away. Thanks man. Your videos are so amazing to watch!
Stunning ❤. Perfect color choices to get you excited about the candy! Thx for finishing the project with making the actual drop candy!
A beautiful glossy shiny sparkly finish. It really suits a candy maker. Great work.

I usually think it's a shame when such an old tool is over-restored. In this case, the quality of the craftsmanship of the restoration is so high and the result so beautiful that I just think it's great.
Well I am the opposite, I think if you gonna restore something, you should go all the way in, its always annoying to me when people restore something, then proceeds to reuse old broken wooden parts, wood is organic which means it will decay, metal on the other hand, if cared for, can last thousands of years.
@@SMGJohn hes probably talking more about changing the design or looks of the tool too much, but it's done beautifully in this case, and kinda fits since it's a candy machine
“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” well in this case it was kinda broke, an upgrade would be the only natural and better choice
My reaction was just like yours, over-restored but then I saw the final product (and the non-repairable items) and thought well thats ok then.
@@SMGJohn I think that what Hafensanger might be saying is that when you make it better than new it kinda of loses it's sense of history. The machining and casting marks speak to how it was made. Pantina tells you it's old. For example, I have an old hand crank apple peeler. If I restored it to better than new, It would essentially be no different than a replica I can buy from China.
At a time where so many things are designed to be disposed of when they break, it’s awesome to see something brought back to life. My uncle taught me at an early age not to be afraid to take things apart to see how they work and if they can be repaired. It has saved me a lot of money over the years 🥰 excellent work sir!
Hi,
Thanks for all your super good tutorials.
I have watched quite a few of your tutorials in the last few days.

Many thanks again.

Aside from just being a joy to watch, these videos are genuinely inspiring. I use them often to motivate my self-care efforts. "If the R&R guy can put that much time, effort, and care into restoring each tiny piece of an old machine, you can get out of bed and wash your face."

I'm sure this thing never looked even close to that good, even when it was brand stinking new. Really nice work on restoring this far beyond any expectations.
It definitely didn't look that good when new, he did a huge amount of surfacing work, I'd call it a restomod but the result is spectacular

That was so relaxing to watch. And what a craftsman great video candy at the end! 🙂
This was so freaking cool to watch.. so satisfying, and glad to see you using it at the end. was the candy good btw ? 😅
It was awesome!

That was so awesome, I love watching your videos.
