Pincers Restoration [Very Rusty Restoration]

I used many different techniques to restore an old pincers. In this restoration video I will file, use rust remover, drill, cut threads, cold bluing, use powder coating and use thread lock. I found this old tool in my barn and thought: "That would be great to restore this very rusty handtool" - Now the time has come!

▬ What did I do ?! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The pincers were so rusted that they couldn't be opened normally, so I used rust remover and a hammer, which unfortunately didn't work. The continued use of rust remover didn't help either, so I decided to saw off the bolt. Finally, with a pin punch, I completed the disassembly. I processed the contact surfaces, cutting edge and unevenness with the file. After masking the surfaces, I heated the components of the old rusted pincers to 200 ° C / 392 ° F and dusted them with powder paint. That color melted on the hot metal. I drilled a hole in the bolt and cut a thread into it and cold bluing. I made a small screw on a lathe and finished it in the restoration video. After applying grease, I was able to assemble everything and glue in the self-made screw with screw lock.
