My antique vacuum restoration video is ready! Till now thats my most elaborate restoration videos old tools. It took me a lot of time and work to get this vacuum restoration of an almost 90 years old Vorwerk Kobold vacuum cleaner done. This step by step restoration shows you the main techniques of my work like wood staining, grinding, mirror polish aluminium, electric motor restoration and more. Also iincluded is galvanic nickel plating to show you some kind of abonus stuff. By the way: It is a Vorwerk Kobold Modell 34, which means that it is from 1934.
I absolutely love those old home electrics, very charming and simply cool tools. In the end ypu can see a final test in which I demonstrate it to you. In my opinion a perfect restoration and cleaning job :)
