  • This is my restoration of an old British brass blow torch.
    I've re-published this video to include a correction in the pump rebuild, and to also show it working.
    All the pieces were present, and I only needed to make a replacement leather washer for the pressure pump.
    I decided to do a brushed brass finish. I have another similar blow torch that I may restore to a polished finish in the future.
    The handle, metal support guard, and all the screws were coated in a 'cold blue' solution.
    Overall, quite a few processes were used in this restoration, and I was pretty pleased with the outcome.

    Bought one just like it today, fantastic video, i didn’t realise that trough was for a primer! Definitely saved me some future confusion. Keep up the good work!👍

    beautiful job, have had one sitting on the shelf for over ten years, you've given me the motivation to start work on it, thank you.

    Didn’t do much to the finish nut chips finish is pitted all you did was clean it up not much else

      perhaps you could share a video of where you have done anything similar with a "better" result ?
