Nasty old coffee grinder restored
From My Mechanics, a restoration project that turned out to be "a lot more challenging" than expected. I'm very fond of the wordless, meticulous yet leisurely mode of crafting footage.
Read the restA few weeks ago I bought an old bench grinder to restore on eBay. The guy who sold it was actually selling more antiques, he had a room filled with old items. I took a look at his other stuff and this unique coffee grinder caught my attention right away. So I ended up buying it for $35. The one thing that really impressed me on this coffee grinder was the metal body, usually they're made of wood. I also liked the colour very much. The restoration itself turned out to be a lot more challenging than I first expected. I'm very happy with the final result of this coffee grinder. I really like how the handle turned out.
