Excellent travail, j'apprécie ce vous avez fait parce que j'ai eu à restaurer ce genre d'équipement pour équiper mon atelier. Dans l'ensemble, votre vidéo est très représentatif de l,ensemble des opérations requises pour remettre en condition ce type d'équipement. Je ne m'arrête pas à l'aspect cosmétique de la restauration, cependant, au niveau de l'aspect fonctionnel, l'état du mandrin porte soupape semble avoir été négligé. en fait, la concentricité de la face active de la soupape par rapport à sa tige doit être de l'ordre de 0.001" ( 0.025mm), c'est précisément ce qui m,a demandé le plus d'énergie lors de la restauration de ma rectifieuse à soupapes. Dans mon cas, j'ai dû faire rectifier l'axe du porte soupape, fabriquer des bagues de friction sous calibrées en regard de l,axe rectifié et de remplacer le collet serre soupape afin d,obtenir une concentricité dans les normes. j'ai fait cette restauration il y a plus de 15 ans et cette machine me rend toujours un bon service malgré que je ne l'utilise pas souvent.

The Left hand wheel was for Grinding the top of the valve stem.I work on a lot of older engines and on very old engines the top of the valve stem will be mushroomed so they need to be refaced. Plus,back when there were thousands of Ford Sidevalve engines in use,and lots of work came in such as valve jobs, you had to set the valve clearance by grinding the valve stem. As the valves were refaced in the machine,the end of the valve stem of course sat lower and decreased the valve clearance .A tedious job especially when you had to do 16 of them. If you ever get the opportunity to buy a seat grinder, you will find that the seat stones are also ground on the machine,so the grain marks on the valve head match the seat marks,usually at 45 degrees ,with the valve ground at 46.5 degrees. That means that only a thin contact line between valve and seat is made and very little lapping,if any ,is required. These days I use a tool post grinder in the lathe to valve heads.

That 1940's valve grinder is in very good nick ! Those 2 induction motor stators look very well insulated as they don't use fiberglass tape anymore to tape each wound coil before it is then carefully fitted inside to the motor stator steel core stack, Just imagine how much hard work and effort someone did some 70 + years ago ! in order to make sure those motors were built and insulated to such a high standard for its time (1940's) as by the 1950's they stopped using fiberglass tape to fully insulate the coils of such induction motors (fiberglass tape was still used right up until now to insulate the coils of universal brush motors and car starter motors) but induction motors built after the 1940's were normally left with open windings either side of the motor stator which were/are laced with strong heat resistant string and coated/impregnated in high temperature insulating varnish to keep the windings firmly in place. This is how I can tell that your machine was made before 1950. I also loved that blue-grey crackle finish paint that your grinder was originally painted with and I wish that I could buy some of that same sort of paint for my own machine tool projects but sadly in the UK you can't buy all these sort of paints easily anymore sadly, only black crackle finish paint or red which is also know as "wrinkle finish paint" too. The paint that you chose although it is a silk finish, it still suits this machine very well and your machine now looks very cool. All in all I liked your video very much and thought that you did a fantastic job restoring this great valve grinder to its formal glory ! Well done. Much respect - 10/10.

I wasn't sure that the wrinkle paint (strong paint by the way) was the original paint, as the screws and rubber wire grommets were also painted. other dewet grinders I saw were painted in a smooth grey-blue color, this is the reason I went for that choice :)
