Wow, no sabía que la soldadura, los plásticos, tornillos Allen, y los capacitores existían hace 150 años. Próximo video: restaurando transistores medievales.

Worked for years in a factory making vee belts, laboratory assistant. Never realised such belts were invested 150 years ago ?. We were still working to improve them about 1965.

I've used a few of these key cutting machines over the years. This one was manufactured somewhere between 1970 to approximately 1985. Hope this helps.

AA Hands always knows how to make tools work, even if they're unknown and buried under millions of years of rust.<br>The important thing is that the wrenches are perfect.<br>Cheers and good luck!

Just a quick note. <br>The V-belt was invented in 1917 by John Gates to enable better power transmission compared to the flat belts used at the time. This invention was a significant step forward in power transmission technology.

Strong work. I can only imagine how long this one took. That's a lot of parts. You can sense the frustration in the assembly process, lol. <br><br>That said, there were a few restoration processes I wish I could have seen in this video that would have made it all the more satisfying.
