Leaky and Broken Vintage Heavy Civil Engineering Jack - Restoration

توضیحات:

I bought a leaky, broken heavy civil engineering jack from a flea market and set out to restore it. I disassembled all the parts, washed them with kerosene, and began working on the jack cover. While cleaning the cover with a wire brush, I discovered a large crack that was causing the leak, so I welded the cover, primed it, and painted it. I then painted the other parts, applied cold bluing to some, and repaired the broken components. To create a handle, I had an iron strip milled at a lathe shop, fashioned a wooden handle, and cold blued it. After restoring all the parts, I reassembled the jack.
