An incredible restoration. Old, rusty coffee grinder (Suffolk Iron Foundry) from 1920 restored.
I acquired an old coffee grinder on eBay for €240. The coffee grinder dates back to the year 1920 and has its origins in England. Upon closer inspection, I noticed significant signs of wear and tear: the paint is partially chipped, and the handle is even broken. Additionally, the base on which the coffee grinder stands is considerably damaged.
Initially, I decided to disassemble the coffee grinder. Since the paint on the metal parts was applied very thickly, I treated it with a stain. After sandblasting, it revealed that the craftsmanship was not particularly good. Therefore, I used a milling machine to refine most parts before applying putty.
After priming all parts with a powder coating, the red metallic coating followed. To accentuate the intensity of the red metallic color, all parts were finally coated with clear powder.
I completely recreated the base on which the coffee grinder stood. For this, I used a piece of ash wood from which I cut a suitable board. Using a planing machine, I adjusted it to the correct thickness, added a chamfer to the edges, and sanded the entire piece before sealing it with beeswax.
The handles of the drawer and the wheel were no longer appealing, so I decided to make new ones. I used a piece of ash wood and crafted them on a lathe. Although I don't own a lathe machine, I managed to create an exact copy of the old handle using a special technique. I placed the piece to be copied on the lathe and traced it with a second chisel.
I also renewed the heart of the coffee grinder. After sandblasting, I heated it and immersed it in an oil bath to protect the metal from corrosion.
In the end, I reassembled the entire machine. The result is truly fantastic! I hope you enjoyed the video. Feel free to leave a like and a comment. Until next time - your restorer.
